Abstract
Vascular-targeted drug carriers must localize to the wall (i.e., marginate) and adhere to a diseased endothelium to achieve clinical utility. The particle size has been reported as a critical physical property prescribing particle margination in vitro and in vivo blood flows. Different transport process steps yield conflicting requirements-microparticles are optimal for margination, but nanoparticles are better for intracellular or tissue delivery. Here, we evaluate deformable hydrogel microparticles as carriers for transporting nanoparticles to a diseased vascular wall. Depending on microparticle modulus, nanoparticle-loaded poly(ethylene glycol)-based hydrogel microparticles delivered significantly more 50-nm nanoparticles to the vessel wall than freely injected nanoparticles alone, resulting in >3000% delivery increase. This work demonstrates the benefit of optimizing microparticles' efficient margination to enhance nanocarriers' transport to the vascular wall.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinical and laboratory studies have demonstrated that platelets become hyperactive and prothrombotic in conditions of inflammation. We have previously shown that the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-6 forms a complex with soluble IL-6 receptor α (sIL-6Rα) to prime platelets for activation by subthreshold concentrations of collagen. Upon being stimulated with collagen, the transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) 3 in platelets is phosphorylated and dimerized to act as a protein scaffold to facilitate the catalytic action between the kinase Syk and the substrate phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2) in collagen-induced signaling. However, it remains unknown how collagen induces phosphorylation and dimerization of STAT3. METHODS AND RESULTS We conducted complementary in vitro experiments to show that the IL-6 receptor subunit glycoprotein 130 (GP130) was in physical proximity to the collagen receptor glycoprotein VI (GPVI in membrane lipid rafts of platelets. This proximity allows collagen to induce STAT3 activation and dimerization, and the IL-6-sIL-6Rα complex to activate the kinase Syk and the substrate PLCγ2 in the GPVI signal pathway, resulting in an enhanced platelet response to collagen. Disrupting lipid rafts or blocking GP130-Janus tyrosine kinase (JAK)-STAT3 signaling abolished the cross-activation and reduced platelet reactivity to collagen. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate cross-talk between collagen and IL-6 signal pathways. This cross-talk could potentially provide a novel mechanism for inflammation-induced platelet hyperactivity, so the IL-6-GP130-JAK-STAT3 pathway has been identified as a potential target to block this hyperactivity.

Abstract
Adhesion molecules on endothelial cells play an important role in leukocyte recruitment in several inflammatory processes. Vascular selectins mediate the initial adhesion of leukocytes to the blood vessel wall during their extravasation into inflamed tissues, and in vitro studies in dogs have shown that selectin expression can be induced by cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1 (IL-1). The objective of this study was to determine whether vascular selectins are induced by cytokines in vivo in a cutaneous model of inflammation in dogs. Skin biopsies were collected from nine dogs at various time points after an intradermal injection of TNF-α (10 ng/site) or phosphate-buffered saline containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin, and immunohistochemistry was performed using anti-P-selectin (MD3) and anti-E-selectin (CL37) monoclonal antibodies. In all animals, TNF-α induced an inflammatory reaction that was maximal at 12 hours and then decreased by 24 and 48 hours. Control skin displayed no expression of E- and P-selectin, whereas TNF-α induced the expression of P-selectin and E-selectin on dermal vessels that was highest at 12 hours and 3 hours, respectively ( P < 0.05). Numerous platelet aggregates recognized by the anti-P-selectin antibody were present in the lumina of vessels and in perivascular tissues. These results demonstrate that TNF-α can induce the expression of P- and E-selectin in vivo in dog skin and suggest that these selectins are involved in leukocyte recruitment in canine dermatitis.

Abstract
Basal and inducible expression of human P-selectin in transgenic mice differs from that of murine P-selectin, resulting in distinct functions. Leukocytes roll on P-selectin after its mobilization from secretory granules to the surfaces of platelets and endothelial cells. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), IL-1β, and lipopolysaccharide increase synthesis of P-selectin in murine but not in human endothelial cells. To explore the physiological significance of this difference in gene regulation, we made transgenic mice bearing the human Selp gene and crossed them with mice lacking murine P-selectin (Selp−/−). The transgenic mice constitutively expressed human P-selectin in platelets, endothelial cells, and macrophages. P-selectin mediated comparable neutrophil migration into the inflamed peritoneum of transgenic and wild-type (WT) mice. Leukocytes rolled similarly on human or murine P-selectin on activated murine platelets and in venules of the cremaster muscle subjected to trauma. However, TNF increased murine P-selectin in venules, slowing rolling and increasing adhesion, whereas it decreased human P-selectin, accelerating rolling and decreasing adhesion. Both P- and E-selectin mediated basal rolling in the skin of WT mice, but E-selectin dominated rolling in transgenic mice. During contact hypersensitivity, murine P-selectin messenger (m) RNA was up-regulated and P-selectin was essential for leukocyte recruitment. However, human P-selectin mRNA was down-regulated and P-selectin contributed much less to leukocyte recruitment. These findings reveal functionally significant differences in basal and inducible expression of human and murine P-selectin in vivo.

Abstract
Endocytosed molecules are sorted in endosomes to different cellular destinations (e.g., to lysosomes or to the plasma membrane). Diverse endosomal sorting results have been reported for different ligands and receptors in a variety of cell types, but the general principles governing these sorting outcomes are not well understood. For example, we observed a wide range of sorting outcomes with the epidermal growth factor (EGF)/receptor system in fibroblasts using several members of the EGF family and site-directed ligand and receptor mutants. In this article we describe a mechanistic mathematical model of endosomal sorting based on the hypothesis that receptors may be selectively retained by the endosomal sorting apparatus and that this process may be modulated by receptor occupancy. Our results show that this single mechanism can account for the wide variety of observed sorting outcomes. By providing a conceptual framework for understanding endosomal sorting, this model not only helps interpret our experimental results for the EGF/receptor system, but also provides some insight into the principles governing sorting. For example, the model predicts that the influence of selective endosomal retention of receptor/ligand complexes is seen in deviations of ligand sorting outcomes from pure fluid phase sorting behavior. Furthermore, the model suggests that selective endosomal retention of complexes within endosomes gives rise to three sorting regimes characterized by distinguishable qualitative trends in the dependence of ligand sorting fractions on intracellular ligand concentrations.

Abstract
alpha-Granules are essential to normal platelet activity. These unusual secretory granules derive their cargo from both regulated secretory and endocytotic pathways in megakaryocytes. Rare, inheritable defects of alpha-granule formation in mice and man have enabled identification of proteins that mediate cargo trafficking and alpha-granule formation. In platelets, alpha-granules fuse with the plasma membrane upon activation, releasing their cargo and increasing platelet surface area. The mechanisms that control alpha-granule membrane fusion have begun to be elucidated at the molecular level. SNAREs and SNARE accessory proteins that control alpha-granule secretion have been identified. Proteomic studies demonstrate that hundreds of bioactive proteins are released from alpha-granules. This breadth of proteins implies a versatile functionality. While initially known primarily for their participation in thrombosis and hemostasis, the role of alpha-granules in inflammation, atherosclerosis, antimicrobial host defense, wound healing, angiogenesis, and malignancy has become increasingly appreciated as the function of platelets in the pathophysiology of these processes has been defined. This review will consider the formation, release, and physiologic roles of alpha-granules with special emphasis on work performed over the last decade.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1, CD31) has recently been shown to form an essential element of a mechanosensory complex that mediates endothelial responses to fluid shear stress. The aim of this study was to determine the in vivo role of PECAM-1 in atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS We crossed C57BL/6 Pecam1(-/-) mice with apolipoprotein E-deficient (Apoe(-/-)) mice. On a Western diet, Pecam1(-/-)Apoe(-/-) mice showed reduced atherosclerotic lesion size compared to Apoe(-/-) mice. Striking differences were observed in the lesser curvature of the aortic arch, an area of disturbed flow, but not in the descending thoracic or abdominal aorta. Vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) expression, macrophage infiltration, and endothelial nuclear NF-kappaB were all reduced in Pecam1(-/-)Apoe(-/-) mice. Bone marrow transplantation suggested that endothelial PECAM-1 is the main determinant of atherosclerosis in the aortic arch, but that hematopoietic PECAM-1 promotes lesions in the abdominal aorta. In vitro data show that siRNA-based knockdown of PECAM-1 attenuates endothelial NF-kappaB activity and VCAM-1 expression under conditions of atheroprone flow. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that endothelial PECAM-1 contributes to atherosclerotic lesion formation in regions of disturbed flow by regulating NF-kappaB-mediated gene expression.

Abstract
Misfolded proteins destined for the cell surface are recognized and degraded by the ERAD [ER (endoplasmic reticulum) associated degradation] pathway. TS (temperature-sensitive) mutants at the permissive temperature escape ERAD and reach the cell surface. In this present paper, we examined a TS mutant of the CFTR [CF (cystic fibrosis) transmembrane conductance regulator], CFTR DeltaF508, and analysed its cell-surface trafficking after rescue [rDeltaF508 (rescued DeltaF508) CFTR]. We show that rDeltaF508 CFTR endocytosis is 6-fold more rapid (approximately 30% per 2.5 min) than WT (wild-type, approximately 5% per 2.5 min) CFTR at 37 degrees C in polarized airway epithelial cells (CFBE41o-). We also investigated rDeltaF508 CFTR endocytosis under two further conditions: in culture at the permissive temperature (27 degrees C) and following treatment with pharmacological chaperones. At low temperature, rDeltaF508 CFTR endocytosis slowed to WT rates (20% per 10 min), indicating that the cell-surface trafficking defect of rDeltaF508 CFTR is TS. Furthermore, rDeltaF508 CFTR is stabilized at the lower temperature; its half-life increases from <2 h at 37 degrees C to >8 h at 27 degrees C. Pharmacological chaperone treatment at 37 degrees C corrected the rDeltaF508 CFTR internalization defect, slowing endocytosis from approximately 30% per 2.5 min to approximately 5% per 2.5 min, and doubled DeltaF508 surface half-life from 2 to 4 h. These effects are DeltaF508 CFTR-specific, as pharmacological chaperones did not affect WT CFTR or transferrin receptor internalization rates. The results indicate that small molecular correctors may reproduce the effect of incubation at the permissive temperature, not only by rescuing DeltaF508 CFTR from ERAD, but also by enhancing its cell-surface stability.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a systemic chronic inflammatory disorder. One of the major characteristics is an excess of infiltration of inflammatory cells, mainly lymphocytes, into the skin. Because the adhesion family of selectins is suggested to play a relevant role in this process, selectins have emerged as an interesting target for drug discovery and development in psoriasis. Different strategies targeting selectins have been described. This review discusses these approaches and summarises the current development of selectin antagonists for the treatment of psoriasis. An expert opinion will give the authors' personal opinion about selectin antagonism in psoriasis and which approach might be preferable.

Abstract
Treatment with pertussis toxin in addition to a stable inhibition of G(i)alpha subunits of G-proteins also strongly reduced human neuropeptide Y Y(1) receptors expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. This was reflected in abolition of the inhibition by Y(1) agonists of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase in intact cells, and of Y(1) agonist stimulation of GTPgammaS binding to particulates from disrupted cells. The loss of both receptor and G(i)alpha subunit function was attenuated by ammonium chloride, an inhibitor of acid proteinases, pointing to a chaperoning co-protection of active pertussis toxin-sensitive Galpha subunits and Y(1) receptors. The surface complement of the Y(1) receptor was changed a little in conditions of approximately 85% decrease of the Y(1) population, but the rate of the Y(1) receptor-linked internalization of agonist peptides was reduced about 70%. The preserved receptor fraction consisted of monomers significantly coupled to G(q)alpha subunits. The persistent pertussis toxin-insensitive internalization of agonists with the Y(1) receptor may reflect a rescue or alternative switching that could be important for cell functioning in neuropeptide Y-rich environments. The results are compatible with a loss, due to G(i)alpha subunit inactivation by the toxin, of a large Y(1) receptor reserve constituted of oligomers associating with heterotrimeric G-proteins.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications provide the proteins with the possibility to perform functions in addition to those determined by their primary sequence. However, analysis of multifunctional protein structures in the environment of cells and body fluids is made especially difficult by the presence of other interacting proteins. Bioinformatics tools are therefore helpful to predict protein multifunctionality through the identification of serine and threonine residues wherein the hydroxyl group is likely to become modified by phosphorylation or glycosylation. Moreover, serines and threonines where both modifications are likely to occur can also be predicted (YinYang sites), to suggest further functional versatility. Structural modifications of hydroxyl groups of P-, E-, and L-selectins have been predicted and possible functions resulting from such modifications are proposed. Functional changes of the three selectins are based on the assumption that transitory and reversible protein modifications by phosphate and O-GlcNAc cause specific conformational changes and generate binding sites for other proteins. The computer-assisted prediction of glycosylation and phosphorylation sites in selectins should be helpful to assess the contribution of dynamic protein modifications in selectin-mediated inflammatory responses and cell-cell adhesion processes that are difficult to determine experimentally.

Abstract
The Y(2) receptor for neuropeptide Y (NPY) interacts with pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive G-proteins, but little is known about interdependence of their levels and functions. We found that PTX reduces Y(2) receptors expressed in CHO cells in parallel to inactivation of Gi G-proteins, to loss of inhibition by Y(2) agonists of forskolin-stimulated adenylyl cyclase, and to decrease in the binding of GTP-gamma-S. These losses were attenuated by the endosome alkalinizer ammonium chloride. Affinity of the Y(2) receptor was not changed by PTX treatment. Prolonged treatment induced a large decrease of Y(2) receptor immunoreactivity (more than 70% in 48 h). The Gi(3) alpha-subunit immunoreactivity decreased slowly (about 46% in 48 h). There was a significant increase in Gq alpha immunoreactivity and in fraction of Y(2) binding sensitive to a Gq-selective antagonist. Possibly linked to that, the surface Y(2) sites and the internalization of the Y(2) receptor were less than 40% reduced. However, the abundant masked Y(2) sites were eliminated by the toxin, and could be mainly coupled to PTX-sensitive G-proteins.

Abstract
SNX17 is a member of the sorting nexin family (SNX), a group of hydrophilic proteins whose common characteristic property is a phox homology (PX) domain. The PX domain directs SNXs to phosphatidylinositides containing membranes of the endosomal compartment, where the SNXs are involved in the sorting of transmembrane proteins. SNX17 is known to interact with P-selectin and the LDL receptor family. Here, we report that the PX domain of SNX17 specifically binds to phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate-containing membranes. The functional part of SNX17 that binds P-selectin or Patched (PTCH) consists of a truncated FERM domain and a unique C terminus together (FC-unit). In a yeast two-hybrid analysis a putative recognition motif for the FC-unit was revealed within P-selectin as FxNaa(F/Y). When HepG2 cells overexpress P-selectin together with SNX17, SNX17 changes its distribution from early endosomes to lysobisphosphatidic acid-containing late endosomes. Furthermore, overexpressed SNX17 restrains P-selectin in the outer membrane of the late endosomal compartment, thus preventing the normal lysosomal accumulation of P-selectin. These results suggest that the PX domain is necessary for the intracellular localisation, while the FC-unit is required for cargo recognition. We hypothesise that the expression level of SNX17 may regulate the lysosomal degradation, at least for P-selectin, by suppressing its entry into the inner vesicles of the multi-vesicular bodies (MVBs).

Abstract
Ovulation is accompanied by a marked infiltration of leukocytes into thecal layers after the gonadotropin surge. P-selectin is known to play a critical role in the initial steps of leukocyte recruitment from the bloodstream during inflammation. Thus, the objective was to investigate the potential regulation of P-selectin by gonadotropins in equine preovulatory follicles. The full-length equine P-selectin cDNA was cloned by a combination of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and 5'- and 3'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends. Results showed that equine P-selectin cDNA encodes an 829-amino acid protein that is highly conserved when compared to the human protein (80% identity). Semiquantitative RT-PCR/Southern blot analyses were performed to study the regulation of P-selectin transcript in preovulatory follicles isolated during estrus at 0, 12, 24, 30, 33, 36, and 39 h after an ovulatory dose of hCG (ovulation occurs between 39 and 42 h post-hCG in this model). Results showed that levels of P-selectin mRNA remained very low or undetectable throughout the ovulatory process in extracts prepared from the granulosa cell layer. In contrast, a significant increase in P-selectin transcript was observed between 30 and 39 h post-hCG in extracts obtained from thecal layers (P < 0.05). Likewise, immunohistochemistry revealed an increase of immunoreactive P-selectin protein in the vascular endothelium present in thecal layers of follicles isolated 36 and 39 h post-hCG. Thus, the present study describes, to our knowledge for the first time, the primary structure of equine P-selectin and the regulation of P-selectin transcript and protein in follicular thecal endothelial cells before ovulation.

Abstract
Adenosine and adenosine A(2A) receptor agonists have been shown to limit myocardial infarct size when given at vasodilatory doses during reperfusion. This beneficial effect is thought to be due, in part, to stimulation of adenosine A(2A) receptors on inflammatory cells. The specific aims of this study were to determine whether the anti-inflammatory and cardioprotective properties of a novel adenosine A(2A) receptor agonist, ATL-146e (ATL), alone or in combination with the phosphodiesterase IV inhibitor rolipram would occur using very low, nonvasodilating doses. In a canine model of reperfused myocardial infarction, low-dose ATL given alone reduced infarct size by 45% (P < 0.05 vs. control). When ATL was combined with a very low dose of rolipram (0.001 microg.kg(-1).min(-1)), a marked reduction in P-selectin expression and neutrophil infiltration (51% lower; P < 0.001 vs. control) was seen and the infarct size reduction (58% lower; P < 0.01 vs. control) was greater than observed with ATL (45% lower; P < 0.05) or rolipram (33% lower; P < 0.05) alone. In conclusion, a low, nonvasodilating dose of ATL, a highly selective adenosine A(2A) receptor agonist, reduced infarct size after reperfusion. Furthermore, combining ATL and the phosphodiesterase IV inhibitor rolipram reduced infarct size even more than either agent alone. Such combination therapy may be beneficial clinically by potentiating cardioprotection after coronary reperfusion at doses far below those producing vasodilatation or side effects.

Abstract
Type 3 von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a severe hemorrhagic defect in humans. We now identify the homozygous mutation in the Chapel Hill strain of canine type 3 VWD that results in premature termination of von Willebrand factor (VWF) protein synthesis. We cultured endothelium from VWD and normal dogs to study intracellular VWF trafficking and Weibel-Palade body formation. Weibel-Palade bodies could not be identified in the canine VWD aortic endothelial cells (VWD-AECs) by P-selectin, VWFpp, or VWF immunostaining and confocal microscopy. We demonstrate the reestablishment of Weibel-Palade bodies that recruit endogenous P-selectin by expressing wild-type VWF in VWD-AECs. Expression of mutant VWF proteins confirmed that VWF multimerization is not necessary for Weibel-Palade body creation. Although the VWF propeptide is required for the formation of Weibel-Palade bodies, it cannot independently induce the formation of the granule. These VWF-null endothelial cells provide a unique opportunity to examine the biogenesis of Weibel-Palade bodies in endothelium from a canine model of type 3 VWD.

Abstract
The transient appearance of P-selectin on the surface of endothelial cells helps recruit leukocytes into sites of inflammation. The tight control of cell surface P-selectin on these cells depends on regulated exocytosis of Weibel-Palade bodies where the protein is stored and on its rapid endocytosis. After endocytosis, P-selectin is either sorted via endosomes and the Golgi apparatus for storage in Weibel-Palade bodies or targeted to lysosomes for degradation. A potential player in this complex endocytic itinerary is SNX17, a member of the sorting nexin family, which has been shown in a yeast two-hybrid assay to bind P-selectin. Here, we show that overexpression of SNX17 in mammalian cells can influence two key steps in the endocytic trafficking of P-selectin. First, it promotes the endocytosis of P-selectin from the plasma membrane. Second, it inhibits the movement of P-selectin into lysosomes, thereby reducing its degradation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mice deficient in apolipoprotein-E (apoE-/-) experience severe hypercholesterolemia that is exacerbated by a high-fat Western-type diet and atherosclerotic lesions spontaneously develop. In addition, we have reported that deficiency of P-selectin dramatically protects against neointimal lesion formation after arterial injury in apoE-/- mice. To define the mechanism, bone marrow transplantation (BMT) after lethal irradiation was used to generate apoE-/- chimeric mice deficient in platelet, but not endothelial, P-selectin. METHODS AND RESULTS Mice underwent vascular injury and were euthanized 4 weeks later. Absence of platelet P-selectin (pPS) expression in apoE-/- mice after BMT was confirmed by flow cytometry and Western blot analysis. Lack of pPS in apoE-/- mice resulted in a 62% reduction in neointimal area (45 000+/-27 000 versus 17 000+/-13 000 microm2, P<0.000001) and a 30% reduction (P<0.02) in macrophage infiltration, compared with control apoE-/- BMT. Absence of pPS was also associated with a reduction in plaque neovascularization as compared with pPS-competent controls (0/8 versus 3/8, P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Lack of pPS significantly attenuates macrophage recruitment and neointimal lesion formation, indicating that pPS on platelets lining the vessel wall plays a critical role in inflammation after wire-withdrawal injury of the carotid artery in apoE-/- mice.

Abstract
The pathways involved in targeting membrane proteins to lysosomes are extraordinarily complex. Newly synthesized proteins in the ER are transported to the Golgi complex, and upon arrival at the trans Golgi network (TGN) are targeted either directly to endosomes, or first to the cell surface from where they can be rapidly internalized into the endocytic pathway for delivery to lysosomes. The routes to endosomes are specified by sorting motifs in the cytoplasmic tails of the proteins that are recognized at the TGN or plasma membrane. The molecular details of these processes are just emerging.

Abstract
Macrophages, phagocytic cells involved in an early phase of host defense, are known to express the P-selectin ligand, PSGL-1. Heretofore, P-selectin has only been found on platelets and endothelial cells. Here, we demonstrate that peritoneal macrophages isolated by peritoneal lavage of unchallenged mice express P-selectin on the plasma membrane. The peritoneal macrophages synthesize P-selectin, as indicated by metabolic labeling experiments. P-Selectin is constitutively expressed on the extracellular surface of macrophages but is only partially colocalized with PSGL-1. P-Selectin is rapidly translocated from the macrophage plasma membrane to intracellular vesicles and to lysosomes. Peritoneal macrophages assemble into cell strings under flow conditions based upon macrophage–macrophage interactions mediated by P-selectin and PSGL-1. This is the first description of a leukocyte shown to express both P-selectin and PSGL-1.

Abstract
Flowing leukocytes roll on P-selectin that is mobilized from secretory granules to the surfaces of endothelial cells after stimulation with histamine or thrombin. Before it is internalized, P-selectin clusters in clathrin-coated pits, which enhances its ability to support leukocyte rolling. We found that thrombin and histamine induced comparable exocytosis of P-selectin on endothelial cells. However, compared with histamine, thrombin decreased the recruitment of P-selectin into clathrin-coated pits, slowed the internalization of P-selectin, and reduced the number and stability of neutrophils rolling on P-selectin. Significantly more RhoA was activated in thrombin- than in histamine-stimulated endothelial cells. Inhibitors of RhoA or its effector, Rho kinase, reversed thrombin's ability to inhibit the internalization and adhesive function of P-selectin in endothelial cells. Experiments with transfected cells confirmed that the inhibitory actions of thrombin and Rho kinase on P-selectin required its cytoplasmic domain. Thus, a signaling event affects both the function and clearance of a protein that enters the constitutive clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway.

Abstract
The identification of organelles is crucial for efficient cellular function, yet the basic underlying mechanisms by which this might occur have not been established. One group of proteins likely to be central to organelle identity is the Rab family of small GTPases. We have thus investigated Rab recruitment to membranes using endothelial cells as a model system. We report that Weibel-Palade bodies, the Von Willebrand Factor storage compartment of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, contain Rab27a. We have also found that Weibel-Palade body-like structures induced in HEK-293 cells by the expression of von Willebrand factor can recruit endogenous Rab27a. In the absence of von Willebrand Factor, Rab27a is not lysosome associated, indicating that it can distinguish between the Weibel-Palade-body-like organelle and a classical lysosome. Finally, a time course of Weibel-Palade-body formation was established using a green-fluorescent version of von Willebrand factor. Newly formed Weibel-Palade bodies lack Rab27a, which is acquired some hours after initial appearance of the cigar-shaped organelle. We conclude that a lumenal cargo protein drives the recruitment of Rab27a to the organelle membrane by a novel mechanism that is indirect, maturation-dependent and cell-type independent.

Abstract
Hemophilia B was recognized as a good candidate for gene therapy. Several strategies have been attempted and gave promising results in hemophilic animals but failed to achieve corrective levels in humans. To overcome this inconvenience we aimed to generate intracellular pools of factor (F)IX in cells that are implicated in the hemostatic response, e.g. endothelial cells and platelets. Upon stimulation, these cells release their granule content, which in this case would result in an increase in local FIX concentration, and could locally produce an effective hemostasis. In an attempt to produce an intracellular pool of releasable coagulation FIX, the cytoplasmic domain of the P-selectin (pselCT) molecule was fused to the carboxy-terminal extremity of the human FIX protein. The properties of this chimeric molecule (FIX-pselCT) were studied in AtT20, a cell line which possesses storage granules. As previously shown for transmembrane molecules but not for a soluble protein such as FIX, the pselCT fragment induces the storage of FIX-pselCT. The coagulant activity of FIX-pselCT was not affected by the addition of the pselCT tail. The treatment of AtT20 cells with different inhibitors revealed that FIX-pselCT was not submitted to intracellular degradation and that the half-life of the chimeric molecule was at least two times longer than that of FIX-WT. An immunoelectron microscopic analysis demonstrated a specific localization of FIX-pselCT within the ACTH-containing granules. Cell stimulation using Phorbol Myristrate Acetate (PMA), ionophore A-23187 or 8-Br-cAMP induced efficient release of an active FIX-pselCT. These data demonstrate that the addition of the cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin to FIX modifies the cellular fate of the FIX molecule by directing the recombinant protein toward regulated-secretory granules without altering its coagulant activity.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori upregulates endothelial adhesion molecules but the pattern is unclear. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were exposed to control medium or H. pylori 60190. Binding of monoclonal antibodies against P-selectin, E-selectin, vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Binding of polymorphonuclear leukocytes to HUVEC was determined on cells exposed as above. After 6 h exposure to H. pylori, there were 30%, 124%, 167% and 100% increases in P-selectin, E-selectin, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 levels and a 400% increase in polymorphonuclear leukocyte adhesion in HUVEC exposed to H. pylori. Effects of incubation for other intervals between 0 and 18 h are also described. H. pylori exerts some of its effects on gastric mucosa via gastric vasculature. This study gives insight into the pattern of H. pylori-associated endothelial adhesion molecule upregulation.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) comprise a family of proteins characterized by the presence of a phox-homology domain, which mediates the association of these proteins with phosphoinositides and recruits them to specific membranes or vesicular structures within cells. Although only limited information about SNXs and their functions is available, they seem to be involved in membrane trafficking and sorting processes by directly binding to target proteins such as certain growth factor receptors. We show that SNX17 binds to the intracellular domain of some members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family such as LDLR, VLDLR, ApoER2 and LDLR-related protein. SNX17 resides on distinct vesicular structures partially overlapping with endosomal compartments characterized by the presence of EEA1 and rab4. Using rhodamine-labeled LDL, it was possible to demonstrate that during endocytosis, LDL passes through SNX17-positive compartments. Functional studies on the LDLR pathway showed that SNX17 enhances the endocytosis rate of this receptor. Our results identify SNX17 as a novel adaptor protein for LDLR family members and define a novel mechanism for modulation of their endocytic activity.

Abstract
Weibel-Palade bodies (WPBs) are the lysosome-related secretory organelles of endothelial cells. Their content protein von Willebrand factor, plays a key role in haemostasis, whilst P-selectin in the membranes is critical in the initiation of inflammation. Biogenesis of these rod-shaped structures is driven by von Willebrand factor, since its heterologous expression leads to formation of organelles morphologically indistinguishable from bona fide WPBs. The two main membrane proteins of WPBs, CD63 and P-selectin, have complex itineraries controlled largely by cytoplasmic targeting signals. We are only just beginning to understand the way in which these three proteins come together to form mature WPBs.

Abstract
von Willebrand factor (vWF) is a large, multimeric protein secreted by endothelial cells and involved in hemostasis. When expressed in AtT-20 cells, vWF leads to the de novo formation of cigar-shaped organelles similar in appearance to the Weibel-Palade bodies of endothelial cells in which vWF is normally stored before regulated secretion. The membranes of this vWF-induced organelle, termed the pseudogranule, are uncharacterized. We have examined the ability of these pseudogranules, which we show are secretagogue responsive, to recruit membrane proteins. Coexpression experiments show that the Weibel-Palade body proteins P-selectin and CD63, as well as the secretory organelle membrane proteins vesicle-associated membrane protein-2 and synaptotagmin I are diverted away from the endogenous adrenocorticotropic hormone-containing secretory granules to the vWF-containing pseudogranules. However, transferrin receptor, lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1, and sialyl transferase are not recruited. The recruitment of P-selectin is dependent on a tyrosine-based motif within its cytoplasmic domain. Our data show that vWF pseudogranules specifically recruit a subset of membrane proteins, and that in a process explicitly driven by the pseudogranule content (i.e., vWF), the active recruitment of at least one component of the pseudogranule membrane (i.e., P-selectin) is dependent on residues of P-selectin that are cytosolic and therefore unable to directly interact with vWF.

Abstract
Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions are mediated by various cell adhesion molecules. These interactions are important for leukocyte extravasation and trafficking in all domestic animal species. An initial slowing of leukocytes on the vascular endothelium is mediated by selectins. This event is followed by (1) activation of beta2 integrins after leukocyte exposure to cytokines and pro-inflammatory mediators, (2) adherence of leukocyte beta2 integrins to vascular endothelial ligands (eg, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 [ICAM-1]), (3) extravasation of leukocytes into tissues through tight junctions of endothelial cells mediated by platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1), and (4) perivascular migration through the extracellular matrix via beta1 integrins. Inhibiting excessive leukocyte egress and subsequent free radical-mediated damage caused by leukocyte components may attenuate or eliminate tissue damage. Several methods have been used to modify leukocyte infiltration in various animal models. These methods include nonspecific inhibition of pro-inflammatory mediators and adhesion molecules by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and glucocorticoids, inhibition of cytokines and cytokine receptors, and inhibition of specific types of cell adhesion molecules, with inhibitors such as peptides and antibodies to beta2 integrins, and inhibitors of selectins, ICAMs, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). By understanding the cellular and molecular events in leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions, therapeutic strategies are being developed in several animal models and diseases in domestic animal species. Such therapies may have clinical benefit in the future to overcome tissue damage induced by excessive leukocyte infiltration.

Abstract
The biogenesis of secretory lysosomes, which combine characteristics of both lysosomes and secretory granules, is currently of high interest. In particular, it is not clear whether delivery of membrane proteins to the secretory lysosome requires lysosomal, secretory granule, or some novel targeting determinants. Heterologous expression of P-selectin has established that this membrane protein contains targeting signals for both secretory granules and lysosomes. P-selectin is therefore an ideal probe with which to determine the signals required for targeting to secretory lysosomes. We have exploited subcellular fractionation and immunofluorescence microscopy to monitor targeting of transiently expressed wild-type and mutant horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-P-selectin chimeras to secretory lysosomes of Rbl-2H3 cells. The exposure of the HRP chimeras to intracellular proteolysis was also determined as a third monitor of secretory lysosome targeting. Our data show that HRP-P-selectin accumulates in secretory lysosomes of Rbl-2H3 cells using those cytoplasmic sequences previously found to be sufficient for targeting to conventional lysosomes. This work highlights the similar sorting signals used for targeting of membrane proteins to conventional lysosomes and secretory lysosomes.

Abstract
Ags that cross-link the B cell Ag receptor are preferentially and rapidly delivered to the MHC class II-enriched compartment for processing into peptides and subsequent loading onto MHC class II. Proper sorting of Ag/receptor complexes requires the recruitment of Syk to the phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif tyrosines of the B cell Ag receptor constituent Igalpha. We postulated that the Igalpha nonimmunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif tyrosines, Y(176) and Y(204), contributed to receptor trafficking. Igalpha(YDeltaF(176,204))/Igbeta receptors were targeted to late endosomes, but were excluded from the vesicle lumen and could not facilitate the presentation of Ag to T cells. Subsequent analysis demonstrated that phosphorylation of Y(176)/Y(204) recruited the B cell linker protein, Vav, and Grb2. Reconstitution of Igalpha(YDeltaF(176,204))/Igbeta with the B cell linker protein rescued both receptor-facilitated Ag presentation and entry into the MHC class II-enriched compartment. Thus, aggregation accelerates receptor trafficking by recruiting two separate signaling modules required for transit through sequential checkpoints.

Abstract
Amyloid beta protein, the major component of the senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease, is generated by secretory and endocytic processing of amyloid precursor protein. Internalized amyloid precursor protein either recycles to the plasma membrane, where alpha-secretase resides, or moves to acidic compartment(s) for beta-secretase exposure. While the trans-Golgi network contains beta-secretase activity, recent examination of the subcellular distribution of this proteinase, called BACE, has led to the suggestion that beta-secretase activity might also reside at the plasma membrane and in endosomes. To examine the role of endocytic compartments in beta-secretase processing of amyloid precursor protein, the wild-type and endosomal sorting mutant P-selectin cytoplasmic domains were used to control movement of amyloid precursor protein through endosomes. Amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin, which is sorted from early to late endosomes, undergoes significantly less alpha-secretase cleavage, and more beta-secretase cleavage, than amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin768A, a mutant that recycles more efficiently to the cell surface. Our results demonstrate that endosomal sorting influences relative exposure of the amyloid precursor protein/P-selectin chimeras to alpha- and beta-secretase activities, and suggest that, because delivery to late endocytic compartments favors beta-secretase processing of amyloid precursor protein, there is likely limited beta-secretase activity in early endosomes or at the cell surface. We propose that the trans-Golgi network may be involved in both secretory and endocytic generation of amyloid beta protein.

Abstract
In a neutrophil-dependent model of acute postischemic renal failure (APRF), eliminating or blocking P-selectin reduces postischemic neutrophil infiltration and preserves kidney function. This study was designed to identify the role of platelet vs. endothelial P-selectin in APRF. Using wild-type (wt) and P-selectin-deficient (P-/-) mice, we generated chimeric mice by bone marrow transplantation. Chimeric mice exclusively expressed either platelet (Plt-P) or endothelial P-selectin (EC-P). APRF was induced by bilateral renal ischemia in situ (32 min), followed by reperfusion; 48 h after reperfusion, EC-P had significantly lower creatinine concentrations (twofold over sham) than Plt-P (eightfold over sham). Compared with wt, protection from renal failure in EC-P was similar to that observed in P-/-. Plt-P and EC-P demonstrated similar overall postischemic neutrophil infiltration as measured by renal myeloperoxidase activity. However, Plt-P showed massive neutrophil infiltration into outer and inner medulla, similar to that in wt. EC-P had only patchy, more diffuse neutrophil influx. Our study identifies platelet P-selectin as crucial for postischemic neutrophil recruitment into outer and inner medulla, which is detrimental to the development of APRF. This suggests that novel therapeutic strategies for postischemic organ failure could be aimed at neutrophil-platelet interactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Routine methods capable of assessing tissue inflammation noninvasively are currently not available. We hypothesized that tissue retention of microbubbles targeted to the endothelial cell adhesion molecule P-selectin would provide a means to assess inflammation with ultrasound imaging. METHODS AND RESULTS Phospholipid microbubbles targeted to P-selectin (MB(p)) were created by conjugating monoclonal antibodies against murine P-selectin to the lipid shell. The microvascular behaviors of MB(p) and control microbubbles without antibody (MB) or with isotype control antibody (MB(iso)) were assessed by intravital microscopy of cremasteric venules of control and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-stimulated wild-type mice. Retention of all microbubbles increased (P<0.05) with TNF-alpha treatment because of increased attachment to activated leukocytes. Extensive attachment of MB(p) directly to the venular endothelium or to adherent platelet-leukocyte aggregates was observed in TNF-alpha-stimulated mice, resulting in 4-fold greater (P<0.01) retention of MB(p) than either MB(iso) or MB. Enhanced retention of MB(p) was completely abolished in TNF-alpha-stimulated P-selectin-deficient mice. The ultrasound signal from microbubbles retained in inflamed tissue was assessed by contrast-enhanced renal ultrasound imaging of the kidneys of mice undergoing ischemia-reperfusion injury. In wild-type mice, this signal was significantly higher (P<0.05) for MB(p) (12+/-2 U) than either MB(iso) (6+/-3 U) or MB (5+/-3 U). In P-selectin-deficient mice, the signal for MB(p) was equivalent to that from control microbubbles. CONCLUSIONS Microvascular retention of microbubbles targeted to P-selectin produces strong signal enhancement on ultrasound imaging of inflamed tissue. These results suggest that site-targeted microbubbles may be used to assess inflammation, tissue injury, and other endothelial responses noninvasively with ultrasound.

Abstract
Oncostatin M (OSM), a member of the IL-6 family has been postulated to be a potent recruiter of leukocytes, however information regarding the molecular mechanism(s) underlying this event is extremely limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the role of OSM-mediated leukocyte recruitment in a human system in vitro under flow conditions. A parallel-plate flow chamber assay was used to examine leukocyte recruitment from whole blood by human umbilical vein endothelium treated for 24 hours with OSM. OSM in a dose-response manner revealed very significant leukocyte rolling and adhesion reaching optimal levels at a very low concentration of OSM (10 ng/ml). The OSM-induced leukocyte rolling and adhesion was comparable to levels seen with tumor necrosis factor. OSM was extremely selective for neutrophil recruitment (96%) with <3% lymphocyte recruitment. By contrast, tumor necrosis factor-alpha revealed no such selectivity, recruiting 70% neutrophils and at least 25% lymphocytes and detectable levels of eosinophils at 24 hours. The molecular mechanism underlying the leukocyte recruitment seemed to be entirely dependent on P-selectin as leukocyte recruitment could be completely blocked by the addition of a P-selectin-blocking antibody. An elevation in both P-selectin message and protein was observed with 24 hours of OSM stimulation of endothelium. By contrast, E-selectin and VCAM-1 were not detectable after OSM stimulation. Similar results were seen with passaged dermal microvascular endothelium that does not have a prestored pool of P-selectin. Based on these results, we conclude that OSM may be a very selective potent recruiter of neutrophils in more prolonged inflammatory conditions, an event exclusively dependent on P-selectin.

Abstract
Endothelial activation and leukocyte recruitment are early events in atherosclerosis and the vascular response to injury. Adenosine has anti-inflammatory effects on leukocytes and endothelial cells mediated through its A(2A) receptor. We tested the hypothesis that A(2A) activation would reduce inflammation and neointimal formation in a murine carotid ligation model. Before injury, mice were randomized to a 7-day subcutaneous infusion of a specific A(2A) receptor agonist (ATL-146e, 0.004 microg/kg per minute), vehicle control, ATL-146e plus ZM241385 (a selective A(2A) antagonist), or ZM241385 alone. Leukocyte recruitment and adhesion molecule expression were assessed at early time points, and the neointimal area was measured at 14 and 28 days after injury. Compared with control mice, ATL-146e-treated mice had significantly less neutrophil and macrophage recruitment and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, and P-selectin expression in the first 7 days after injury. Neointimal area was markedly and persistently reduced by 80% at 14 and 28 days, despite termination of ATL infusion at 7 days. ATL-146e+ZM241385-treated and ZM241385-treated animals had neointimal areas similar to those of control animals, confirming that the observed effects of ATL-146e were mediated specifically by the A(2A) receptor. These data demonstrate that novel stimulation of adenosine A(2A) receptors can inhibit early inflammatory processes that are important in neointimal formation after vascular injury.

Abstract
P-selectin, a cell adhesion protein participating in the early stages of inflammation, contains multiple sorting signals that regulate its cell surface expression. Targeting to secretory granules regulates delivery of P-selectin to the cell surface. Internalization followed by sorting from early to late endosomes mediates rapid removal of P-selectin from the surface. We show here that the P-selectin cytoplasmic domain bound AP-2 and AP-3 adaptor complexes in vitro. The amino acid substitution L768A, which abolishes endosomal sorting and impairs granule targeting of P-selectin, reduced binding of AP-3 adaptors but not AP-2 adaptors. Turnover of P-selectin was 2.4-fold faster than turnover of transferrin receptor in AP-3-deficient mocha fibroblasts, similar to turnover of these two proteins in AP-3-competent cells, demonstrating that AP-3 function is not required for endosomal sorting. However, sorting P-selectin to secretory granules was defective in endothelial cells from AP-3-deficient pearl mice, demonstrating a role for AP-3 adaptors in granule assembly in endothelial cells. P-selectin sorting to platelet alpha-granules was normal in pearl mice, consistent with earlier evidence that granule targeting of P-selectin is mechanistically distinct in endothelial cells and platelets. These observations establish that AP-3 adaptor functions in assembly of conventional secretory granules, in addition to lysosomes and the 'lysosome-like' secretory granules of platelets and melanocytes.

Abstract
P-selectin is a cell adhesion molecule found in platelets and endothelial cells mediating binding of leukocytes. It is stored in secretory granules and expressed at the plasma membrane after cell activation. After rapid internalisation P-selectin recycles or is degraded. The 35 amino acid cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin contains signals for sorting into secretory granules, for endocytosis and for delivery to lysosomes. To investigate protein-protein interactions, we performed two-hybrid screening using the cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin as bait. KIAA0064 was identified as a putative intracellular P-selectin binding protein. Because the protein contains a phox homology (PX) domain in the N-terminus which is a characteristic feature of the sorting nexin (SNX) family, it was named SNX17. The PX domain is not required for binding of P-selectin in the two-hybrid system. Expression of a fusion protein between SNX17 and green fluorescent protein demonstrated localisation of SNX17 in the cytosol and to membranes.

Abstract
Internalization signals of the Yxx phi type (phi = bulky hydrophobic side chain) interact with the mu 2 chain of AP-2 adaptors. Internalization activity is intolerant of non-conservative substitution of either the tyrosine or the phi side chains, which bind to hydrophobic pockets in mu 2 adaptin in a conformation described as 'a two pinned plug into a socket'. P-selectin, a type I transmembrane protein, contains the Yxx phi-like sequence YGVF in its cytoplasmic domain, but substitution of either the tyrosine or phenylalanine with alanine in the full-length protein causes only small changes in the rate of endocytosis. It is shown here that the sequence YGVF contained within a peptide corresponding to the 17 COOH-terminal amino acids of P-selectin binds to mu 2 adaptin in the same fashion previously seen for other Yxx phi motifs. In addition, the P-selectin peptide binds to a third hydrophobic pocket in mu 2 adaptin through a leucine at position Y-3 in the peptide. This structure suggests that some sequences can function as a 'three pinned plug', in which internalization activity is not critically dependent on any one of the three interacting side chains.

Abstract
Prior studies on receptor recycling through late endosomes and the TGN have suggested that such traffic may be largely limited to specialized proteins that reside in these organelles. We present evidence that efficient recycling along this pathway is functionally important for nonresident proteins. P-selectin, a transmembrane cell adhesion protein involved in inflammation, is sorted from recycling cell surface receptors (e.g., low density lipoprotein [LDL] receptor) in endosomes, and is transported from the cell surface to the TGN with a half-time of 20-25 min, six to seven times faster than LDL receptor. Native P-selectin colocalizes with LDL, which is efficiently transported to lysosomes, for 20 min after internalization, but a deletion mutant deficient in endosomal sorting activity rapidly separates from the LDL pathway. Thus, P-selectin is sorted from LDL receptor in early endosomes, driving P-selectin rapidly into late endosomes. P-selectin then recycles to the TGN as efficiently as other receptors. Thus, the primary effect of early endosomal sorting of P-selectin is its rapid delivery to the TGN, with rapid turnover in lysosomes a secondary effect of frequent passage through late endosomes. This endosomal sorting event provides a mechanism for efficiently recycling secretory granule membrane proteins and, more generally, for downregulating cell surface receptors.

Abstract
Weibel-Palade bodies, the secretory granules of endothelial cells, possess two different membrane proteins. However, P-selectin is seen only in Weibel-Palade bodies in HUVECs, whereas CD63 is also seen in late endosomes/lysosomes. Since P-selectin is targeted to lysosomes in heterologous expression studies, we have determined whether a lysosomal targeting signal also operates within HUVECs. We have also examined the trafficking of CD63 to its two different intracellular locations. By following antibodies bound at the plasma membrane during stimulation, we have discovered that while half of the P-selectin recycles to the WPBs, 50% is rapidly delivered to a lamp-1-positive compartment. Thus, the lysosomal targeting signal of this protein also operates in HUVECs. CD63 is found constitutively at the cell surface of HUVECs and most of it is delivered to the late endosomes/lysosomes after internalisation. However, stimulation causes both a rise in the CD63 plasma membrane level and in the amount that recycles to the WPBs. Our data strongly suggest that the CD63 that originates in the WPB preferentially recycles to the granule rather than being delivered to the late endosome/lysosome, and that there are, therefore, two separate pools of this protein within HUVECs. Our findings indicate that although P-selectin and CD63 are both targeted to the same compartments from the PM, the kinetics and the ratio of their targeting to Weibel-Palade bodies versus lysosomes are very different.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In our previously described primate renal allograft model, T cell ablation leads to long-term graft survival. The role of endothelial cell alteration in chronic rejection was examined in our model. METHODS Renal transplants were performed in rhesus monkeys using a T cell- depleting immunotoxin, FN18-CRM9. Sections from 10 rejected kidneys (5 acute and 7 chronic rejection) were examined after immunohistochemical staining for expression of endothelium-related proteins [von Willebrand factor (vWF), CD62P, and CD31], fibrinogen, and a macrophage marker (CD68). Glomerular staining for each antigen was graded on a semiquantitative scale. RESULTS Intense staining for vWF was consistently observed in glomerular endothelium, subendothelium, and mesangium in all kidneys removed due to chronic rejection. vWF staining was weak in kidneys showing acute rejection. The difference in glomerular staining was statistically significant. Staining for vWF in extraglomerular vessels was nearly identical in kidneys showing acute and chronic rejection. Expression of CD62P was increased in extraglomerular vessels in allografts with chronic rejection, but the glomeruli showed little or no staining. There was no significant difference in the glomerular staining for CD62P or CD31 in organs showing acute and chronic rejection. Fibrinogen staining of glomerular mesangium was seen in kidneys with chronic rejection. Macrophages (CD68+) infiltrating glomeruli were more numerous in kidneys showing chronic rejection. CONCLUSION Increased glomerular deposition of vWF in renal allografts showing chronic rejection, without increased staining for CD62P or CD31, suggests increased constitutive secretion of vWF from endothelial cells as a component of the mechanism of chronic rejection in our model.

Abstract
We present a biochemical and morphological characterization of recycling endosomes containing the transferrin receptor in the epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney cell line. We find that recycling endosomes are enriched in molecules known to regulate transferrin recycling but lack proteins involved in early endosome membrane dynamics, indicating that recycling endosomes are distinct from conventional early endosomes. We also find that recycling endosomes are less acidic than early endosomes because they lack a functional vacuolar ATPase. Furthermore, we show that recycling endosomes can be reached by apically internalized tracers, confirming that the apical endocytic pathway intersects the transferrin pathway. Strikingly, recycling endosomes are enriched in the raft lipids sphingomyelin and cholesterol as well as in the raft-associated proteins caveolin-1 and flotillin-1. These observations may suggest that a lipid-based sorting mechanism operates along the Madin-Darby canine kidney recycling pathway, contributing to the maintenance of cell polarity. Altogether, our data indicate that recycling endosomes and early endosomes differ functionally and biochemically and thus that different molecular mechanisms regulate protein sorting and membrane traffic at each step of the receptor recycling pathway.

In previous studies, we demonstrated that substitutions in the transferrin receptor (TR) transmembrane domain (TM) convert the protein from an efficiently recycling receptor to one that is rapidly down regulated. In this study, we demonstrate that the "signal" within the TM necessary and sufficient for down-regulation is Thr(11)Gln(17)Thr(19) (numbering in TM). Transplantation of these polar residues into the wild-type TR promotes receptor down-regulation that can be demonstrated by changes in protein half-life and in receptor recycling. Surprisingly, this modification dramatically increases the TR internalization rate as well ( approximately 79% increase). Sucrose gradient centrifugation and cross-linking studies reveal that propensity of the receptors to self-associate correlates with down-regulation. Interestingly, a number of cell surface proteins that contain TM polar residues are known to be efficiently down-regulated, whereas recycling receptors for low-density lipoprotein and transferrin conspicuously lack these residues. Our data, therefore, suggest a simple model in which specific residues within the TM sequences dramatically influence the fate of membrane proteins after endocytosis, providing an alternative signal for down-regulation of receptor complexes to the well-characterized cytoplasmic tail targeting signals.

Abstract
In this study we have used the Semliki forest virus expression system to transiently express chimeric proteins that contain transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of the cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CI-MPR) fused to chicken avidin. Immunofluorescence and electron microscopy studies showed that the chimeric protein with the entire cytoplasmic domain of CI-MPR was transported to late endosomes, where it accumulated. We made use of the biotin-binding capacity of lumenal avidin, and found that, in agreement with this distribution, the chimeric protein could be labelled with biotinylated HRP endocytosed for a long, but not a brief, period of time. However, truncation of the C-terminal tail distal to the rapid endocytosis motif (YKYSKV), caused the truncated chimera to be transported to, and accumulated within, early endosomes. This truncated chimera did not reach recycling early endosomes labelled with internalised transferrin, to any significant extent, but was accessible to biotinylated HRP internalised for 5 min (or for longer periods at 19 degrees C). Coinfection of these chimeras showed that they follow the same route from the TGN to the early endosomes. We conclude that the sequence distal to the endocytosis motif contains the signals which are required for efficient transport to late endosomes. Our results also suggest that the YKYSKV sequence close to the CI-MPR transmembrane segment is sufficient for targeting to sorting early endosomes.

Abstract
In PC12 neuroendocrine cells, synaptic-like microvesicles (SLMV) are thought to be formed by two pathways. One pathway sorts the proteins to SLMV directly from the plasma membrane (or a specialized domain thereof) in an adaptor protein complex 2-dependent, brefeldin A (BFA)-insensitive manner. Another pathway operates via an endosomal intermediate, involves adaptor protein complex 3, and is BFA sensitive. We have previously shown that when expressed in PC12 cells, HRP-P-selectin chimeras are directed to SLMV mostly via the endosomal, BFA-sensitive route. We have now found that two endosomal intermediates are involved in targeting of HRP-P-selectin chimeras to SLMV. The first intermediate is the early, transferrin-positive, epidermal growth factor-positive endosome, from which exit to SLMV is controlled by the targeting determinants YGVF and KCPL, located within the cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin. The second intermediate is the late, transferrin-negative, epidermal growth factor-positive late endosome, from where HRP-P-selectin chimeras are sorted to SLMV in a YGVF- and DPSP-dependent manner. Both sorting steps, early endosomes to SLMV and late endosomes to SLMV, are affected by BFA. In addition, analysis of double mutants with alanine substitutions of KCPL and YGVF or KCPL and DPSP indicated that chimeras pass sequentially through these intermediates en route both to lysosomes and to SLMV. We conclude that a third site of formation for SLMV, the late endosomes, exists in PC12 cells.

Abstract
Acute renal failure (ARF) in response to ischemia-reperfusion is thought to be associated with neutrophil infiltration. Neutrophil recruitment depends on adhesion molecules, including P-selectin. Our study sought to characterize the role of P-selectin in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) -induced acute renal failure (ARF). In wild-type (wt) and P-selectin-deficient (P-/-) mice (both C57BL/6), ARF was induced by 32 min bilateral renal ischemia, followed by reperfusion (I/R). Wt showed a 12- and 20-fold increase in creatinine at 24 and 48 h after I/R, respectively. Similar changes were seen in blood urea nitrogen (BUN). By contrast, in P-/- creatinine and BUN increased only moderately (fourfold over sham). In wt, renal myeloperoxidase activity, indicating neutrophil infiltration, peaked after 24 h (19-fold over sham). This was significantly attenuated in P-/- (fivefold over sham). Western blot analysis revealed maximum P-selectin expression 12 h after I/R in wt. Immunostaining detected P-selectin in glomerular endothelium and in platelets adherent in glomerular and peritubular vessels. Postischemic injection of P-selectin antibody at 10 min after reperfusion, but not isotype control antibody, protected wt from ARF similar to the protection seen in P-/-. We conclude that blocking P-selectin even after onset of reperfusion protects mice from I/R-induced ARF, suggesting potential therapeutic strategies aimed at blocking P-selectin.
