J Adv Res 2023:S2090-1232(23)00402-2. [PMID: 38123019 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2023.12.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/16/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been the leading cause of death worldwide for many years. In recent years, exosomes have gained extensive attention in the cardiovascular system due to their excellent biocompatibility. Studies have extensively researched miRNAs in exosomes and found that they play critical roles in various physiological and pathological processes in the cardiovascular system. These processes include promoting or inhibiting inflammatory responses, promoting angiogenesis, participating in cell proliferation and migration, and promoting pathological progression such as fibrosis. AIM OF REVIEW This systematic review examines the role of exosomes in various cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, ischemia-reperfusion injury, heart failure and cardiomyopathy. It also presents the latest treatment and prevention methods utilizing exosomes. The study aims to provide new insights and approaches for preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases by exploring the relationship between exosomes and these conditions. Furthermore, the review emphasizes the potential clinical use of exosomes as biomarkers for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles surrounded by lipid bilayers that are secreted by most cells in the body. They are heterogeneous, varying in size and composition, with a diameter typically ranging from 40 to 160 nm. Exosomes serve as a means of information communication between cells, carrying various biologically active substances, including lipids, proteins, and small RNAs such as miRNAs and lncRNAs. As a result, they participate in both physiological and pathological processes within the body.

Abstract
SHP2 (PTPN11) acts upstream of SOS1/2 to enable RAS activation. Allosteric SHP2 inhibitors (SHP2i) in the clinic prevent SHP2 activation, block proliferation of RTK- or cycling RAS mutant-driven cancers, and overcome "adaptive resistance." To identify SHP2i resistance mechanisms, we performed genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 knockout screens on two SHP2i-sensitive cell lines, recovering genes expected to cause resistance (NF1, PTEN, CDKN1B, LZTR1, and RASA2) and novel targets (INPPL1, MAP4K5, epigenetic modifiers). We screened 14 additional lines with a focused CRISPR library targeting common "hits" from the genome-wide screens. LZTR1 deletion conferred resistance in 12/14 lines, followed by MAP4K5 (8/14), SPRED2/STK40 (6/14), and INPPL1 (5/14). INPPL1, MAP4K5, or LZTR1 deletion reactivated ERK signaling. INPPL1-mediated sensitization to SHP2i required its NPXY motif but not lipid phosphatase activity. MAP4K5 acted upstream of MEK through a kinase-dependent target(s); LZTR1 had cell-dependent effects on RIT and RAS stability. INPPL1, MAP4K5, or LZTR1 deletion also conferred SHP2i resistance in vivo. Defining the SHP2i resistance landscape could suggest effective combination approaches.

OxLDL-stimulated macrophage exosomes promote proatherogenic vascular smooth muscle cell viability and invasion via delivering miR-186-5p then inactivating SHIP2 mediated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Mol Immunol 2022; 146:27-37. [PMID: 35421738 DOI: 10.1016/j.molimm.2022.02.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/27/2021] [Revised: 02/11/2022] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 10/18/2022]
Abstract
The current study aimed to investigate the implication of microRNA (miRNA) profile in the linkage between oxidized low-density-lipoprotein (oxLDL)-stimulated-macrophages (MФ) exosomes and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) during atherosclerosis. VSMCs were treated by oxLDL-stimulated-MФ with/without GW4869. MiRNA profile in oxLDL-stimulated-MФ and untreated-MФ was detected by microarray, then candidate miRNAs were proposed to RT-qPCR and functional validation in VSMCs. MiR-186-5p mimic/inhibitor was transfected into oxLDL-stimulated-MФ, then its exosomes were used to VSMCs. Subsequently, miR-186-5p, SHIP2 and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway were modified alone or in combination in VSMCs. VSMCs viability, invasion and apoptosis were detected. OxLDL-stimulated-MФ induced VSMCs viability, invasion, but repressed apoptosis (all P < 0.01); while after GW4869 treatment to delete exosomes, its effect was weakened (all P < 0.05). Totally 45 dysregulated miRNAs were identified in oxLDL-stimulated-MФ versus untreated-MФ. The top-three dysregulated miRNAs (miR-186-5p, miR-21-5p, miR-320b) were elevated in VSMCs after oxLDL-stimulated-MФ treatment (all P < 0.001); while only miR-186-5p mimic greatly enhanced VSMCs viability and invasion (both P < 0.01). Furthermore, miR-186-5p-overexpressed oxLDL-stimulated-MФ exosomes promoted VSMCs viability, invasion, repressed apoptosis, while miR-186-5p-knockdown oxLDL-stimulated-MФ exosomes exhibited opposite effect (all P < 0.05). MiR-186-5p negatively regulated SHIP2 in VSMCs and bound SHIP2 via luciferase-reporter-gene assay (all P < 0.05). SHIP2 overexpression decreased VSMCs viability, invasion, PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, increased apoptosis, and attenuated miR-186-5p-overexpression's effect on these functions (all P < 0.05). Besides, PI3K activator (740 Y-P) weakened SHIP2-overexpression's effect on VSMCs viability, invasion and apoptosis (all P < 0.05). In conclusion, oxLDL-stimulated-MФ exosomes deliver miR-186-5p to inactivate SHIP2 mediated PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, then promote cell viability and invasion in VSMCs to accelerate atherosclerosis.

Altered chondrocyte differentiation, matrix mineralization and MEK-Erk1/2 signaling in an INPPL1 catalytic knock-out mouse model of opsismodysplasia. Adv Biol Regul 2019; 76:100651. [PMID: 31519471 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbior.2019.100651] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2019] [Revised: 08/30/2019] [Accepted: 09/03/2019] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Opsismodysplasia (OPS) is a rare but severe autosomal recessive skeletal chondrodysplasia caused by inactivating mutations in the Inppl1/Ship2 gene. The molecular mechanism leading from Ship2 gene inactivation to OPS is currently unknown. Here, we used our Ship2Δ/Δ mouse expressing reduced amount of a catalytically-inactive SHIP2 protein and a previously reported SHIP2 inhibitor to investigate growth plate development and mineralization in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro. First, as observed in OPS patients, catalytic inactivation of SHIP2 in mouse leads to reduced body length, shortening of long bones, craniofacial dysmorphism, reduced height of the hyperthrophic chondrocyte zone and to defects in growth plate mineralization. Second, intrinsic Ship2Δ/Δ bone defects were sufficient to induce the characteristic OPS alterations in bone growth, histology and mineralization ex vivo. Third, expression of osteocalcin was significantly increased in SHIP2-inactivated chondrocyte cultures whereas production of mineralized nodules was markedly decreased. Targeting osteocalcin mRNA with a specific shRNA increased the production of mineralized nodules. Fourth, levels of p-MEK and p-Erk1/2 were significantly increased in SHIP2-inactivated chondrocytes in response to serum and IGF-1, but not to FGF2, as compared to control chondrocytes. Treatment of chondrocytes and bones in culture with a MEK inhibitor partially rescued the production of mineralized nodules, the size of the hypertrophic chondrocyte zone and bone growth, raising the possibility of a treatment that could partially reduce the phenotype of this severe condition. Altogether, our results indicate that Ship2Δ/Δ mice represent a relevant model for human OPS. They also highlight the important role of SHIP2 in chondrocytes during endochondral ossification and its different differentiation steps. Finally, we identified a role of osteocalcin in mineralized nodules production and for the MEK-Erk1/2 signaling pathway in the OPS phenotype.

Abstract
Corneal avascularity is critical for achieving transparency necessary for proper transmission of light to the lens and visual acuity. Although much is known about angiogenesis and angiostasis, the precise regulation of these processes in the cornea is unclear. MicroRNA (miR)-184, the most abundant corneal epithelial miRNA, has been suggested to function in corneal angiostasis by altering VEGF signaling; however, the mechanism(s) underlying this regulation have not been addressed. Using a combination of in vitro and in vivo assays to evaluate angiogenesis, we demonstrated that human limbal epithelial keratinocytes (HLEKs) engineered to overexpress miR-184 secreted lower amounts of angiogenic mitogens. Human dermal microvascular cells exposed to conditioned medium from miR-184-overexpressing HLEKs were less proliferative and failed to seal linear scratch wounds. The in vivo Matrigel plug assay showed that conditioned medium from miR-184-expressing HLEKs elicited a lesser degree of neovascularization compared with controls. We found that miR-184 directly targets and represses the proangiogenic factors, friend of Gata 2 (FOG2), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-β, and phosphatidic acid phosphatase 2b (PPAP2B). FOG2 regulates VEGF expression, whereas PDGF-β and PPAP2B regulate Akt activity. By attenuating both VEGF and Akt signaling, miR-184 acts as a broad-spectrum negative regulator of corneal angiogenesis.-Park, J. K., Peng, H., Yang, W., Katsnelson, J., Volpert, O., Lavker, R.

High SHIP2 expression indicates poor survival in colorectal cancer. DISEASE MARKERS 2014; 2014:218968.

Abstract
SH2-containing inositol 5′-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2), which generally regulates insulin signaling, cytoskeleton remodeling, and receptor endocytosis, has been suggested to play a significant role in tumor development and progression. However, the associations between SHIP2 expression and the clinical features to evaluate its clinicopathologic significance in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been determined yet. In the present study, one-step quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) test and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis with CRC tissue microarrays (TMA) were employed to evaluate the mRNA and protein expression of SHIP2 in CRC. The results showed that SHIP2 expression in the mRNA and protein levels was significantly higher in CRC tissues than that in corresponding noncancerous tissues (both P < 0.05). The expression of SHIP2 protein in CRC was related to lymph node metastasis (P = 0.036), distant metastasis (P = 0.001), and overall survival (P = 0.009). Kaplan-Meier method and Cox multifactor analysis suggested that high SHIP2 protein level (P = 0.040) and positive distant metastasis (P = 0.048) were critically associated with the unfavorable survival of CRC patients. The findings suggested that SHIP2 may be identified as a useful prognostic marker in CRC and targeting CRC may provide novel strategy for CRC treatment.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide phosphatases comprise several large enzyme families with over 35 mammalian enzymes identified to date that degrade many phosphoinositide signals. Growth factor or insulin stimulation activates the phosphoinositide 3-kinase that phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] to form phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)], which is rapidly dephosphorylated either by PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10) to PtdIns(4,5)P(2), or by the 5-phosphatases (inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatases), generating PtdIns(3,4)P(2). 5-phosphatases also hydrolyze PtdIns(4,5)P(2) forming PtdIns(4)P. Ten mammalian 5-phosphatases have been identified, which regulate hematopoietic cell proliferation, synaptic vesicle recycling, insulin signaling, and embryonic development. Two 5-phosphatase genes, OCRL and INPP5E are mutated in Lowe and Joubert syndrome respectively. SHIP [SH2 (Src homology 2)-domain inositol phosphatase] 2, and SKIP (skeletal muscle- and kidney-enriched inositol phosphatase) negatively regulate insulin signaling and glucose homeostasis. SHIP2 polymorphisms are associated with a predisposition to insulin resistance. SHIP1 controls hematopoietic cell proliferation and is mutated in some leukemias. The inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatases, INPP4A and INPP4B degrade PtdIns(3,4)P(2) to PtdIns(3)P and regulate neuroexcitatory cell death, or act as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer respectively. The Sac phosphatases degrade multiple phosphoinositides, such as PtdIns(3)P, PtdIns(4)P, PtdIns(5)P and PtdIns(3,5)P(2) to form PtdIns. Mutation in the Sac phosphatase gene, FIG4, leads to a degenerative neuropathy. Therefore the phosphatases, like the lipid kinases, play major roles in regulating cellular functions and their mutation or altered expression leads to many human diseases.

Abstract
PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and PtdIns(3,4)P2 are major signalling molecules in mammalian cell biology. PtdIns(3,4)P2 can be produced by PI3Ks [PI (phosphoinositide) 3-kinases], but also by PI 5-phosphatases including SHIP2 [SH2 (Src homology 2)-domain-containing inositol phosphatase 2]. Proteomic studies in human cells revealed that SHIP2 can be phosphorylated at more than 20 sites, but their individual function is unknown. In a model of PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10)-null astrocytoma cells, lowering SHIP2 expression leads to increased PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels and Akt phosphorylation. MS analysis identified SHIP2 phosphosites on Ser132, Thr1254 and Ser1258; phosphotyrosine-containing sites were undetectable. By immunostaining, total SHIP2 concentrated in the perinuclear area and in the nucleus, whereas SHIP2 phosphorylated on Ser132 was in the cytoplasm, the nucleus and nuclear speckles, depending on the cell cycle stage. SHIP2 phosphorylated on Ser132 demonstrated PtdIns(4,5)P2 phosphatase activity. Endogenous phospho-SHIP2 (Ser132) showed an overlap with PtdIns(4,5)P2 staining in nuclear speckles. SHIP2 S132A was less sensitive to C-terminal degradation and more resistant to calpain as compared with wild-type enzyme. We have identified nuclear lamin A/C as a novel SHIP2 interactor. We suggest that the function of SHIP2 is different at the plasma membrane where it recognizes PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, and in the nucleus where it may interact with PtdIns(4,5)P2, particularly in speckles.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE OF THE FIELD Inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase (SHIP2) is an important negative regulator of intracellular phosphatidylinositol phosphate, a key second messenger of various intracellular signaling pathways. The functional upregulation of SHIP2 results in signaling blockade, leading to related disorders. AREAS COVERED IN THIS REVIEW We first summarize the role of SHIP2 in the regulation of insulin signaling and type 2 diabetes, including remarkable advances in pharmacological approaches. In addition, this review highlights new findings regarding the involvement of SHIP2 in a number of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and atherosclerosis. WHAT THE READER WILL GAIN Recently identified small-molecule inhibitors of SHIP2 phosphatase activity emphasize the potential therapeutic value of SHIP2. In addition, currently available evidence demonstrates the importance of the scaffolding-type protein function of SHIP2. Understanding this interesting function will help clarify the complicated involvement of SHIP2 in various disorders. TAKE HOME MESSAGE Recent studies have demonstrated that SHIP2 is a promising therapeutic target for not only type 2 diabetes, but also cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and atherosclerosis. Targeting SHIP2 through specific small-molecule inhibitors will have beneficial effects on these diseases.

Abstract
SH2-domain-containing inositol phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) belongs to a small family of phosphoinositide 5-phosphatases that help terminate intracellular signaling initiated by activated receptor tyrosine kinases. Mammalian SHIP2 is viewed primarily as an attenuator of insulin signaling and has become a prominent candidate target for therapeutic agents that are designed to augment insulin signaling. Despite this view, no signaling pathway has yet been demonstrated as being affected directly by SHIP2 function in vivo, and in vitro studies indicate that the protein may function in multiple signaling pathways. Here, we analyze the role of a SHIP2 family member in the early zebrafish embryo where developmental and gene expression defects can be used to assay specific signaling pathways. The zebrafish ship2a transcript is maternally supplied, and inhibiting the expression of its protein product results in the expansion of dorsal tissue fates at the expense of ventral ones. We show that the developmental defects are the result of perturbation of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling in the early embryo. Loss of Ship2a leads to an increased and expanded expression of outputs of FGF-mediated signaling, including FGF-dependent gene expression and activated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. Our findings demonstrate that Ship2a attenuates the FGF signaling pathway in vivo and functions in the establishment of normal tissue patterning in the early embryo. We suggest that modulation of FGF signaling may be a principal function of SHIP2 in mammals.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor IGF-I is an important fetal and postnatal growth factor, which is also involved in tissue homeostasis via regulation of proliferation, differentiation, and cell survival. To understand the role of IGF-I in the pathophysiology of a variety of disorders, including growth disorders, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases, a detailed knowledge of IGF-I signal transduction is required. This knowledge may also contribute to the development of new therapies directed at the IGF-I receptor or other signaling molecules. In this review, we will address IGF-I receptor signaling through the JAK/STAT pathway in IGF-I signaling and the role of cytokine-induced inhibitors of signaling (CIS) and suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCS). It appears that, in addition to the canonical IGF-I signaling pathways through extracellular-regulated kinase (ERK) and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K)-Akt, IGF-I also signals through the JAK/STAT pathway. Activation of this pathway may lead to induction of SOCS molecules, well-known feedback inhibitors of the JAK/STAT pathway, which also suppress of IGF-I-induced JAK/STAT signaling. Furthermore, other IGF-I-induced signaling pathways may also be modulated by SOCS. It is conceivable that the effect of these classical inhibitors of cytokine signaling directly affect IGF-I receptor signaling, because they are able to associate to the intracellular part of the IGF-I receptor. These observations indicate that CIS and SOCS molecules are key to cross-talk between IGF-I receptor signaling and signaling through receptors belonging to the hematopoietic/cytokine receptor superfamily. Theoretically, dysregulation of CIS or SOCS may affect IGF-I-mediated effects on body growth, cell differentiation, proliferation, and cell survival.

Abstract
Inadequate proliferation and/or differentiation of preadipocytes may lead to adipose tissue dysfunction characterized by hypertrophied, insulin-resistant adipocytes. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) may alter adipose tissue function by promoting proliferation of preadipocytes. Two principal signaling pathways that regulate proliferation are PI3K/PI(3,4,5)P3/Akt and Shc/Ras/ERK1/2. SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) dephosphorylates PI(3,4,5)P3, and also binds to Shc. Our goal was to determine how SHIP2 affects these PDGF signaling routes. To assess the role of the 5-phosphatase domain, we expressed wild-type or catalytically inactive dominant-negative SHIP2 (P686A-D690A-R691A; PDR/AAA) in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Surprisingly, SHIP2 PDR/AAA inhibited proliferation more potently than wild-type SHIP2. After three days of proliferation, phospho-Akt, phospho-ERK1/2, and PDGF receptor (PDGFR) levels were reduced in PDR/AAA-expressing preadipocytes. SHIP2 PDR/AAA interference with PDGFR signaling was demonstrated using imatinib, an inhibitor of PDGFR tyrosine kinase. The anti-proliferative effect of imatinib observed in control preadipocytes was not significant in SHIP2 PDR/AAA-expressing preadipocytes, indicating a pre-existing impairment of PDGFR-dependent mitogenesis in these cells. The inhibition of PDGF-activated mitogenic pathways by SHIP2 PDR/AAA was consistent with a decrease in PDGFR phosphorylation caused by a drop in receptor levels in SHIP2 PDR/AAA-expressing cells. SHIP2 PDR/AAA promoted ubiquitination of the PDGFR and its degradation via the lysosomal pathway independently of the association between the E3 ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl and PDGFR. Overall, our findings indicate that SHIP2 PDR/AAA reduces preadipocyte proliferation by attenuating PDGFR signaling.

MicroRNA-184 antagonizes microRNA-205 to maintain SHIP2 levels in epithelia. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2008; 105:19300-5.

Abstract
Despite their potential to regulate approximately one-third of the whole genome, relatively few microRNA (miRNA) targets have been experimentally validated, particularly in stratified squamous epithelia. Here we demonstrate not only that the lipid phosphatase SHIP2 is a target of miRNA-205 (miR-205) in epithelial cells, but, more importantly, that the corneal epithelial-specific miR-184 can interfere with the ability of miR-205 to suppress SHIP2 levels. This is the first example of a miRNA negatively regulating another to maintain levels of a target protein. Interfering with miR-205 function by using a synthetic antagomir, or by the ectopic expression of miR-184, leads to a coordinated damping of the Akt signaling pathway via SHIP2 induction. This was associated with a marked increase in keratinocyte apoptosis and cell death. Aggressive squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cells exhibited elevated levels of miR-205. This was associated with a concomitant reduction in SHIP2 levels. Partial knockdown of endogenous miR-205 in SCCs markedly decreased phosphorylated Akt and phosphorylated BAD levels and increased apoptosis. We were able to increase SHIP2 levels in SCC cells after inhibition of miR-205. Therefore, miR-205 might have diagnostic value in determining the aggressivity of SCCs. Blockage of miR-205 activity with an antagomir or via ectopic expression of miR-184 could be novel therapeutic approaches for treating aggressive SCCs.

Abstract
Glargine and detemir are long-acting human insulin analogues with a smooth peakless profile of action. Although their binding affinities to the insulin receptor have been studied, little is known about the subsequent signalling properties activated after the binding. We directly compared intracellular signalling properties of them in various cultured cells. Regarding the metabolic signalling, glargine and insulin-induced comparable dose-dependent phosphorylation of insulin receptor, IRS-1, Akt, and GSK3, whereas detemir-induced kinetics were markedly lower in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myocytes. A similar pattern of phosphorylation induction was observed in primary hepatocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Because of the binding of detemir to albumin with high affinity, the phosphorylation kinetics and glucose uptake of detemir, but not glargine, decreased with increasing concentrations of BSA. Concerning the mitogenic properties, glargine and insulin-induced comparable dose-dependent phosphorylation of MAP kinase (MAPK) and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation. Detemir-induced phosphorylation of MAPK was apparently reduced, whereas it stimulated BrdU incorporation with relatively similar dose-dependent manner in VSMCs. These results indicate that glargine has comparable properties to human insulin in metabolic and mitogenic signalling and action. In contrast, detemir-induced metabolic signaling is less potent in all cell types studied, and is reduced further by increasing concentrations of albumin.

Abstract
SHIP2 (SH2-containing inositol polyphosphate 5-phosphatase 2) is a phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) 5-phosphatase containing various motifs susceptible to mediate protein-protein interaction. In cell models, SHIP2 negatively regulates insulin signalling through its catalytic PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) 5-phosphatase activity. We have previously reported that SHIP2 interacts with the c-Cbl associated protein (CAP) and c-Cbl, proteins implicated in the insulin cellular response regulating the small G protein TC10. The first steps of the TC10 pathway are the recruitment and tyrosine phosphorylation by the insulin receptor of the adaptor protein with Pleckstrin Homology and Src Homology 2 domains (APS). Herein, we show that SHIP2 can directly interact with APS in 3T3-L1 adipocytes and in transfected CHO-IR cells (Chinese hamster ovary cells stably transfected with the insulin receptor). Upon insulin stimulation, APS and SHIP2 are recruited to cell membranes as seen by immunofluorescence studies, which is consistent with their interaction. We also observed that SHIP2 negatively regulates APS insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and consequently inhibits APS association with c-Cbl. APS, which specifically interacts with SHIP2, but not PTEN, in turn, increases the PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) 5-phosphatase activity of SHIP2 in an inositol phosphatase assay. Co-transfection of SHIP2 and APS in CHO-IR cells further increases the inhibitory effect of SHIP2 on Akt insulin-induced phosphorylation. Therefore, the interaction between APS and SHIP2 provides to both proteins potential negative regulatory mechanisms to act on the insulin cascade.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide lipids generated at the cell membrane are a key component of a variety of signaling pathways. Among several inositol phosphatases that regulate the availability of signaling phosphoinositide lipids, the type II SH2-domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP2; approved gene symbol Inppl1) is believed to have multiple functions, including the regulation of insulin signaling and cytoskeletal functions. To understand the function of SHIP2 in C2C12 muscle cells, we depleted SHIP2 through the use of RNA interference and analyzed the global effect of SHIP2 depletion on gene expression using Affymetrix microarrays containing approximately 45,000 mouse probe sets. Expression of SHIP2-targeting small-hairpin RNA in differentiated C2C12 muscle cells led to >80% decrease in SHIP2 mRNA and 60-80% decrease in SHIP2 protein, which resulted in significant gene expression changes linked to cytoskeletal functions, including altered expression of adducin-alpha, pallidin, stathmin-like-2, and synaptojanin-2 binding protein. Insulin treatment of C2C12 muscle cells caused transcriptional changes associated with known signaling pathways. However, SHIP2 depletion had no discernible effect on insulin-regulated gene expression. Taken together, our results suggest that SHIP2 is involved in the regulation of cytoskeletal functions, but a large reduction of SHIP2 in C2C12 muscle cells is not sufficient to affect insulin-mediated gene expression.

Abstract
Insulin resistance and smoking are significant risk factors for cardiac and cerebral vascular diseases. Because vascular smooth muscle cells play a key role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis, we investigated the effect of nicotine on insulin-induced mitogenic signaling in aortic vascular smooth muscle cells isolated from Sprague Dawley rats. RT-PCR revealed the expression of alpha2-7, alpha10, beta1-3, delta, and epsilon subunits of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) in the cells. Short-term nicotine treatment stimulated phosphorylation of p44/42-MAPK, p38-MAPK, and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3. However, an additive effect of nicotine pretreatment on insulin stimulation was only observed on p44/42-MAPK. The nicotine-induced phosphorylation of p44/42-MAPK and [methyl-(3)H]thymidine incorporation were effectively suppressed by a alpha7-nAChR-selective antagonist, methyllycaconitine, and the phosphorylation of p44/42-MAPK was stimulated by a alpha7-nAChR-specific agonist, GTS21. Furthermore, the phosphorylation was mediated via calmodulin kinase II, Src, and Shc. Interestingly, long-term (48-h) pretreatment with nicotine increased the amount of alpha7-AChR in the plasma membrane and insulin-induced phosphorylation of p44/42-MAPK. These results provide the first evidence that acute exposure to nicotine enhances insulin-induced mitogenesis predominantly by affecting the phosphorylation of p44/42-MAPK and that chronic exposure further augments the insulin signal via up-regulation of alpha7-nAChR, which may be crucial for the development and progression of atherosclerosis in large vessels.

Abstract
Phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) functions as a lipid kinase to produce PI(3,4,5)P(3) from PI(4,5)P(2) in vivo. PI(3,4,5)P(3) is crucial as a lipid second messenger in various metabolic effects of insulin. Lipid phosphatases, src homology 2 domain containing inositol 5'-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) and skeletal muscle and kidney-enriched inositol phosphatase (SKIP) hydrolyze PI(3,4,5)P(3) to PI(3,4)P(2) and phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) hydrolyzes PI(3,4,5)P(3) to PI(4,5)P(2). SHIP2 negatively regulates insulin signaling relatively specifically via its 5'-phosphatase activity. Targeted disruption of the SHIP2 gene in mice resulted in increased insulin sensitivity and conferred protection from obesity induced by a high-fat diet. Polymorphisms in the human SHIP2 gene are associated, at least in part, with the insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes. Importantly, inhibition of endogenous SHIP2 through the liver-specific expression of a dominant-negative SHIP2 improves glucose metabolism and insulin resistance in diabetic db/db mice. Overexpression of PTEN and SKIP also inhibited insulin-induced phosphorylation of Akt and the uptake of glucose in cultured cells. Although a homozygous disruption of the PTEN gene in mice results in embryonic lethality, either skeletal muscle or adipose tissue-specific disruption of PTEN ameliorated glucose metabolism without formation of tumors in animal models of diabetes. The role of SKIP in glucose metabolism remains to be further clarified in vivo. Taken together, inhibition of endogenous SHIP2 in the whole body appears to be effective at improving the insulin resistance associated with type 2 diabetes and/or obesity. Inhibition of PTEN in the tissues specifically targeted, including skeletal muscle and fat, may result in an amelioration of insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes, although caution against the formation of tumors is needed.

Abstract
The src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) catalyses the dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P2]. We report the identification of the cytoskeletal protein Vinexin as a protein interacting with SHIP2. This was achieved by yeast two-hybrid screening using the C-terminal region of SHIP2 as bait. Vinexin has previously been identified as a vinculin-binding protein that plays a key role in cell spreading and cytoskeletal organization. The interaction between SHIP2 and Vinexin was confirmed in lysates of both COS-7 cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF). The C-terminus was involved in the interaction, as shown by the transfection of a truncated C-terminus mutant of SHIP2. In addition, we showed the colocalization between Vinexin alpha and SHIP2 at the periphery of transfected COS-7 cells. When added in vitro to SHIP2, Vinexin did not affect the PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity of SHIP2. Enhanced cell adhesion to collagen-I-coated dishes was shown upon transfection of either SHIP2 or Vinexin to COS-7 cells. This effect was no longer observed with either a catalytic mutant or the C-terminus mutant of SHIP2. It also appears SHIP2 specific; this was not seen with SHIP1. Adhesion to the same matrix was decreased in SHIP2-/- MEF cells compared with MEF+/+ cells. Our data suggest that SHIP2 interaction with Vinexin promotes the localization of SHIP2 at the periphery of the cells leaving its catalytic site intact. The complex formation between Vinexin and SHIP2 may increase cellular adhesion. The data reinforce the concept that SHIP2 is active both as a PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase and as a modulator of focal contact formation.

Abstract
Over the past two decades it has become widely appreciated that a relationship exists between the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and cancer. Many cancers have been shown to overexpress the IGF-I receptor and produce the ligands (IGF-I or IGF-II) and some combinations of the six IGF-binding proteins. With the recent demonstration by epidemiological studies that an elevated serum IGF-I level is associated with an increased relative risk of developing a number of epithelial cancers, interest has been sparked in this area of research with the possibility of targeting the IGF-I receptor in cancer treatment protocols. This review highlights many of the most relevant studies in this exciting area of research, focusing in particular on lessons learned from animal models of cancer.

Abstract
SHIP2, the ubiquitous SH2 domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase, includes a series of protein interacting domains and has the ability to dephosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)]in vitro. The present study, which was undertaken to evaluate the impact of SHIP2 on PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels, was performed in a mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) model using SHIP2 deficient (-/-) MEF cells derived from knockout mice. PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) was upregulated in serum stimulated -/- MEF cells as compared to +/+ MEF cells. Although the absence of SHIP2 had no effect on basal PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels, we show here that this lipid was significantly upregulated in SHIP2 -/- cells but only after short-term (i.e. 5-10 min) incubation with serum. The difference in PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels in heterozygous fibroblast cells was intermediate between the +/+ and the -/- cells. In our model, insulin-like growth factor-1 stimulation did not show this upregulation. Serum stimulated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity appeared to be comparable between +/+ and -/- cells. Moreover, protein kinase B, but not mitogen activated protein kinase activity, was also potentiated in SHIP2 deficient cells stimulated by serum. The upregulation of protein kinase B activity in serum stimulated cells was totally reversed in the presence of the PI 3-kinase inhibitor LY-294002, in both +/+ and -/- cells. Altogether, these data establish a link between SHIP2 and the acute control of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels in intact cells.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide lipid second messengers are integral components of signaling pathways mediated by insulin, growth factors, and integrins. SHIP2 dephosphorylates phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate generated by the activated phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. SHIP2 down-regulates insulin signaling and is present at higher levels in diabetes and obesity. SHIP2 associates with p130Cas and filamin, regulators of cell adhesion/migration and cytoskeleton, influencing cell adhesion/spreading. Type I collagen specifically induces Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP2. To better understand SHIP2 function, we employed RNA interference (RNAi) approach to silence the expression of the endogenous SHIP2 in HeLa cells. Suppression of SHIP2 levels caused severe F-actin deformities characterized by weak cortical actin and peripheral actin spikes. SHIP2 RNAi cells displayed cell-spreading defects involving a notable absence of focal contact structures and the formation of multiple slender membrane protrusions capped by actin spikes. Furthermore, decreased SHIP2 levels altered distribution of early endocytic antigen 1 (EEA1)-positive endocytic vesicles and of vesicles containing internalized epidermal growth factor (EGF) and transferrin. EGF treatment of SHIP2 RNAi cells led to the following: enhanced EGF receptor (EGFR) degradation; increased EGFR ubiquitination; and increased association of EGFR with c-Cbl ubiquitin ligase. Taken together, these experiments demonstrate that SHIP2 functions in the maintenance and dynamic remodeling of actin structures as well as in endocytosis, having a major impact on ligand-induced EGFR internalization and degradation. Accordingly, we suggest that, in HeLa cells, SHIP2 plays a distinct role in signaling pathways mediated by integrins and growth factor receptors.

Abstract
This study provides new perspectives of the unique aspects of platelet-derived growth factor beta-receptor (PDGFR-beta) signaling and biological responses through the establishment of a mutant mouse strain in which two loxP sequences were inserted into the introns of PDGFR-beta genome sequences. Isolation of skin fibroblasts from the mutant mice and Cre recombinase transfection in vitro induced PDGFR-beta gene deletion (PDGFR-betaDelta/Delta). The resultant depletion of the PDGFR-beta protein significantly attenuated platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB-induced cell migration, proliferation, and protection from H2O2-induced apoptosis of the cultured PDGFR-betaDelta/Delta dermal fibroblasts. PDGF-AA and fetal bovine serum were mitogenic and anti-apoptotic but were unable to induce the migration in PDGFR-beta Delta/Delta fibroblasts. Concerning the PDGF signaling, PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of Akt, ERK1/2, and JNK, but not p38, decreased in PDGFR-betaDelta/Delta fibroblasts, but PDGF-AA-induced signaling was not altered. Overexpression of the phospholipid phosphatases, SHIP2 and/or PTEN, inhibited PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 in PDGFR-betaDelta/Delta fibroblasts but did not affect that of JNK and p38. These results indicate that disruption of distinct PDGFR-beta signaling pathways in PDGFR-betaDelta/Delta dermal fibroblasts impaired their proliferation and survival, but completely inhibits migratory response, and that PDGF-BB-induced phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 possibly mediated by PDGFR-alpha is regulated, at least in part, by the lipid phosphatases SHIP2 and/or PTEN. Thus, the PDGFR-beta function on dermal fibroblasts appears to be critical in PDGF-BB action for skin wound healing and is clearly distinctive from that of PDGFR-alpha in the ligand-induced biological responses and the underlying properties of cellular signaling.
