Abstract
Head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSC) poses a significant public health challenge due to its substantial morbidity. Nevertheless, despite advances in current treatments, the prognosis for HNSC remains unsatisfactory. To address this, single-cell RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and bulk RNA-seq data combined with in vitro studies were conducted to examine the role of MYO5A (Myosin VA) in HNSC. Our investigation revealed an overexpression of MYO5A in HNSC that promotes HNSC migration in vitro. Remarkably, knockdown of MYO5A suppressed vimentin expression. Furthermore, analyzing the TCGA database evidenced that MYO5A is a risk factor for human papillomavirus positive (HPV+) HNSC (HR = 0.81, P < 0.001). In high MYO5A expression HNSC, there was a low count of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), including activated CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and B cells. Of note, CD4+ T cells and B cells were positively associated with improved HPV+ HNSC outcomes. Correlation analysis demonstrated a decreased level of immunostimulators in high MYO5A-expressing HNSC. Collectively, these findings suggest that MYO5A may promote HNSC migration through vimentin and involve itself in the process of immune infiltration in HNSC, advancing the understanding of the mechanisms and treatment of HNSC.

Abstract
Phagosomes, specialized membrane compartments responsible for digesting internalized pathogens, undergo sequential dynamic and biochemical changes as they mature from nascent phagosomes to degradative phagolysosomes. Maturation of phagosomes depends on their transport along actin filaments and microtubules. However, the specific quantitative relationship between the biochemical transformation and transport dynamics remains poorly characterized. The autonomous nature of phagosomes, moving and maturing at different rates, makes understanding this relationship challenging. Addressing this challenge, in this study we engineered particle sensors to image and quantify single phagosomes' maturation. We found that as phagosomes move from the actin cortex to microtubule tracks, the timing of their actin-to-microtubule transition governs the duration of the early phagosome stage before acquiring degradative capacities. Prolonged entrapment of phagosomes in the actin cortex extends the early phagosome stage by delaying the dissociation of early endosome markers and phagosome acidification. Conversely, a shortened transition from actin- to microtubule-based movements causes the opposite effect on phagosome maturation. These results suggest that the actin- and microtubule-based transport of phagosomes functions like a "clock" to coordinate the timing of biochemical events during phagosome maturation, which is crucial for effective pathogen degradation.

Abstract
FTY720P, an analogue of sphingosine 1-phosphate, has emerged lately as a potential causative agent of inflammatory bowel disease, in which electrolytes movements driven by the sodium gradient established by the Na+ /K+ ATPase are altered. We showed previously in Caco-2 cells, a 50% FTY720P-induced decrease in the ATPase activity, mediated via S1PR2 and PGE2. This work aims at delineating the mechanism underlying PGE2 release and at investigating if the ATPase inhibition is due to changes in its abundance. The activity of the ATPase and the localization of a GFP-tagged Na+ /K+ -ATPase α1 -subunit were assessed in cells treated with 7.5 nM FTY720P. The involvement of ERK, p38 MAPK, PKC, and PI3K was studied in cells treated with 7.5 nM FTY720P or 1 nM PGE2 in presence of their inhibitors, or by determining changes in the protein expression of their activated phosphorylated forms. Imaging data showed ∼30% reduction in the GFP-tagged Na+ /K+ ATPase at the plasma membrane. Both FTY720P and PGE2 showed, respectively, 50% and 60% reduction in ATPase activity that disappeared when p38 MAPK, PKC, and PI3K were inhibited individually but not with ERK inhibition. The effect of FTY720P was imitated by PMA, an activator of PKC. Western blotting revealed inhibition of ERK by FTY720P. It was concluded that FTY720P, through activation of S1PR2, downregulates the Na+ /K+ ATPase by inhibiting ERK, which in turn activates p38 MAPK leading to the sequential activation of PKC and PI3K, PGE2 release, and a decrease in the Na+ /K+ ATPase activity and membrane abundance.

J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2021; 379:156-165. [PMID: 34465632 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.121.000712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 08/18/2021] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a common and fatal clinical condition, is characterized by the destruction of epithelium and augmented permeability of the alveolar-capillary barrier. Resolvin conjugates in tissue regeneration 1 (RCTR1) is an endogenous lipid mediator derived from docosahexaenoic acid , exerting proresolution effects in the process of inflammation. In our research, we evaluated the role of RCTR1 in alveolar fluid clearance (AFC) in lipopolysaccharide-induced ARDS/acute lung injury (ALI) rat model. Rats were injected with RCTR1 (5 μg/kg) via caudal veins 8 hours after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (14 mg/kg) treatment, and then AFC was estimated after 1 hour of ventilation. Primary type II alveolar epithelial cells were incubated with LPS (1 ug/ml) with or without RCTR1 (10 nM) for 8 hours. Our results showed that RCTR1 significantly enhanced the survival rate, promoted the AFC, and alleviated LPS-induced ARDS/ALI in vivo. Furthermore, RCTR1 remarkably elevated the protein expression of sodium channels and Na, K-ATPase and the activity of Na, K-ATPase in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, RCTR1 also decreased neural precursor cell expressed developmentally downregulated 4-2 (Nedd4-2) level via upregulating Ser473-phosphorylated-Akt expression. Besides this, inhibitors of receptor for lipoxin A4 (ALX), cAMP, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) (BOC-2, KH-7, and LY294002) notably inhibited the effects of RCTR1 on AFC. In summary, RCTR1 enhances the protein levels of sodium channels and Na, K-ATPase and the Na, K-ATPase activity to improve AFC in ALI through ALX/cAMP/PI3K/Nedd4-2 pathway, suggesting that RCTR1 may become a therapeutic drug for ARDS/ALI. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: RCTR1, an endogenous lipid mediator, enhanced the rate of AFC to accelerate the resolution of inflammation in the LPS-induced murine lung injury model. RCTR1 upregulates the expression of epithelial sodium channels (ENaCs) and Na, K-ATPase in vivo and in vitro to accelerate the AFC. The efficacy of RCTR1 on the ENaC and Na, K-ATPase level was in an ALX/cAMP/PI3K/Nedd4-2-dependent manner.

Abstract
The alpha1 (α1) subunit of the sodium/potassium ATPase (i.e., Na+/K+-ATPase α1), the prototypical sodium pump, is expressed in each eukaryotic cell. They pump out three sodium ions in exchange for two extracellular potassium ions to establish a cellular electrochemical gradient important for firing of neuronal and cardiac action potentials. We hypothesized that myosin (myo or myh) motor proteins might interact with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits in order for them to play an important role in the transport and trafficking of sodium pump. To this end immunoassays were performed to determine whether class II non-muscle myosins (i.e., NMHC-IIA/myh9, NMHC-IIB/myh10 or NMHC-IIC/myh14), myosin Va (myoVa) and myosin VI (myoVI) would interact with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits. Immunoprecipitation of myh9, myh10, myh14, myoVa and myoVI from rat brain tissues led to the co-immunoprecipitation of Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits expressed there. Heterologous expression studies using HEK293 cells indicated that recombinant myh9, myh10, myh14 and myoVI interact with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits expressed in HEK293 cells. Additional results indicated that loss of tail regions in recombinant myh9, myh10, myh14 and myoVI did not affect their interaction with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits. However, recombinant myh9, myh10 and myh14 mutants having reduced or no actin binding ability, as a result of loss of their actin binding sites, displayed greatly reduced or null interaction with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits. These results suggested the involvement of the actin binding site, but not tail regions, of NMHC-IIs in their interaction with Na+/K+-ATPase α1 subunits. Overall these results suggest a role for these diverse myosins in the trafficking and transport of sodium pump in neuronal and non-neuronal tissues.

Abstract
Pentabromopseudilin (PBrP) is a marine antibiotic isolated from the marine bacteria Pseudomonas bromoutilis and Alteromonas luteoviolaceus. PBrP exhibits antimicrobial, anti-tumour, and phytotoxic activities. In mammalian cells, PBrP is known to act as a reversible and allosteric inhibitor of myosin Va (MyoVa). In this study, we report that PBrP is a potent inhibitor of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) activity. PBrP inhibits TGF-β-stimulated Smad2/3 phosphorylation, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) protein production and blocks TGF-β-induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition in epithelial cells. PBrP inhibits TGF-β signalling by reducing the cell-surface expression of type II TGF-β receptor (TβRII) and promotes receptor degradation. Gene silencing approaches suggest that MyoVa plays a crucial role in PBrP-induced TβRII turnover and the subsequent reduction of TGF-β signalling. Because, TGF-β signalling is crucial in the regulation of diverse pathophysiological processes such as tissue fibrosis and cancer development, PBrP should be further explored for its therapeutic role in treating fibrotic diseases and cancer.

Exp Mol Med 2018; 50:1-13. [PMID: 29700291 PMCID: PMC5938057 DOI: 10.1038/s12276-018-0075-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2017] [Revised: 01/18/2018] [Accepted: 01/25/2018] [Indexed: 12/31/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a life-threatening critical syndrome resulting largely from the accumulation of and the inability to clear pulmonary edema. Protectin DX, an endogenously produced lipid mediator, is believed to exert anti-inflammatory and pro-resolution effects. Protectin DX (5 µg/kg) was injected i.v. 8 h after LPS (14 mg/kg) administration, and alveolar fluid clearance was measured in live rats (n = 8). In primary rat ATII epithelial cells, protectin DX (3.605 × 10−3 mg/l) was added to the culture medium with LPS for 6 h. Protectin DX improved alveolar fluid clearance (9.65 ± 1.60 vs. 15.85 ± 1.49, p < 0.0001) and decreased pulmonary edema and lung injury in LPS-induced lung injury in rats. Protectin DX markedly regulated alveolar fluid clearance by upregulating sodium channel and Na, K-ATPase protein expression levels in vivo and in vitro. Protectin DX also increased the activity of Na, K-ATPase and upregulated P-Akt via inhibiting Nedd4–2 in vivo. In addition, protectin DX enhanced the subcellular distribution of sodium channels and Na, K-ATPase, which were specifically localized to the apical and basal membranes of primary rat ATII cells. Furthermore, BOC-2, Rp-cAMP, and LY294002 blocked the increased alveolar fluid clearance in response to protectin DX. Protectin DX stimulates alveolar fluid clearance through a mechanism partly dependent on alveolar epithelial sodium channel and Na, K-ATPase activation via the ALX/PI3K/Nedd4–2 signaling pathway. Treatment that involves boosting levels of a signaling molecule could help reduce fluid on the lungs in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This condition usually affects critically ill patients with illnesses such as pneumonia or sepsis, and leads to severe inflammation and flooding of the lungs with fluid. This prevents microscopic air sacs called aveoli from processing oxygen and carbon dioxide effectively. At present there is no effective management for the condition. Now, Sheng-Wei Jin at Wenzhou Medical University, China, and co-workers have shown that boosting levels of a signaling molecule called protectin DX can help with aveolar fluid clearance in rats. They found that protectin DX activates sodium channels within the aveoli, helping clear fluid, and also acts as an anti-inflammatory and pro-resolving mediator to protect lung tissues from further injury.

Lu FM, Deisl C, Hilgemann DW. Profound regulation of Na/K pump activity by transient elevations of cytoplasmic calcium in murine cardiac myocytes. eLife 2016; 5. [PMID: 27627745 PMCID: PMC5050017 DOI: 10.7554/elife.19267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2016] [Accepted: 09/09/2016] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Small changes of Na/K pump activity regulate internal Ca release in cardiac myocytes via Na/Ca exchange. We now show conversely that transient elevations of cytoplasmic Ca strongly regulate cardiac Na/K pumps. When cytoplasmic Na is submaximal, Na/K pump currents decay rapidly during extracellular K application and multiple results suggest that an inactivation mechanism is involved. Brief activation of Ca influx by reverse Na/Ca exchange enhances pump currents and attenuates current decay, while repeated Ca elevations suppress pump currents. Pump current enhancement reverses over 3 min, and results are similar in myocytes lacking the regulatory protein, phospholemman. Classical signaling mechanisms, including Ca-activated protein kinases and reactive oxygen, are evidently not involved. Electrogenic signals mediated by intramembrane movement of hydrophobic ions, such as hexyltriphenylphosphonium (C6TPP), increase and decrease in parallel with pump currents. Thus, transient Ca elevation and Na/K pump inactivation cause opposing sarcolemma changes that may affect diverse membrane processes.

Abstract
Resolvin D1 (7S,8R,17S-trihydroxy-4Z,9E,11E,13Z,15E,19Z-docosahexaenoic acid) (RvD1), generated from ω-3 fatty docosahexaenoic acids, is believed to exert anti-inflammatory properties including inhibition of neutrophil activation and regulating inflammatory cytokines. In this study, we sought to investigate the effect of RvD1 in modulating alveolar fluid clearance (AFC) on LPS-induced acute lung injury. In vivo, RvD1 was injected i.v. (5 μg/kg) 8 h after LPS (20 mg/kg) administration, which markedly stimulated AFC in LPS-induced lung injury, with the outcome of decreased pulmonary edema. In addition, rat lung tissue protein was isolated after intervention and we found RvD1 improved epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) α, γ, Na,K-adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) α1, β1 subunit protein expression and Na,K-ATPase activity. In primary rat alveolar type II epithelial cells stimulated with LPS, RvD1 not only upregulated ENaC α, γ and Na,K-ATPase α1 subunits protein expression, but also increased Na+ currents and Na,K-ATPase activity. Finally, protein kinase A and cGMP were not responsible for RvD1's function because a protein kinase A inhibitor (H89) and cGMP inhibitor (Rp-cGMP) did not reduce RvD1's effects. However, the RvD1 receptor (formyl-peptide receptor type 2 [FPR2], also called ALX [the lipoxin A4 receptor]) inhibitor (BOC-2), cAMP inhibitor (Rp-cAMP), and PI3K inhibitor (LY294002) not only blocked RvD1's effects on the expression of ENaC α in vitro, but also inhibited the AFC in vivo. In summary, RvD1 stimulates AFC through a mechanism partly dependent on alveolar epithelial ENaC and Na,K-ATPase activation via the ALX/cAMP/PI3K signaling pathway.

Abstract
Rab-GTPases are important molecular switches regulating intracellular vesicle traffic, and we recently showed that Rab8A and Rab13 are activated by insulin in muscle to mobilize GLUT4-containing vesicles to the muscle cell surface. Here we show that the unconventional motor protein myosin Va (MyoVa) is an effector of Rab8A in this process. In CHO-IR cell lysates, a glutathione S-transferase chimera of the cargo-binding COOH tail (CT) of MyoVa binds Rab8A and the related Rab10, but not Rab13. Binding to Rab8A is stimulated by insulin in a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent manner, whereas Rab10 binding is insulin insensitive. MyoVa-CT preferentially binds GTP-locked Rab8A. Full-length green fluorescent protein (GFP)-MyoVa colocalizes with mCherry-Rab8A in perinuclear small puncta, whereas GFP-MyoVa-CT collapses the GTPase into enlarged perinuclear depots. Further, GFP-MyoVa-CT blocks insulin-stimulated translocation of exofacially myc-tagged GLUT4 to the surface of muscle cells. Mutation of amino acids in MyoVa-CT predicted to bind Rab8A abrogates both interaction with Rab8A (not Rab10) and inhibition of insulin-stimulated GLUT4myc translocation. Of importance, small interfering RNA-mediated MyoVa silencing reduces insulin-stimulated GLUT4myc translocation. Rab8A colocalizes with GLUT4 in perinuclear but not submembrane regions visualized by confocal total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy. Hence insulin signaling to the molecular switch Rab8A connects with the motor protein MyoVa to mobilize GLUT4 vesicles toward the muscle cell plasma membrane.

Abstract
In this study, a genetically diverse panel of 43 mouse strains was exposed to phosgene and genome-wide association mapping performed using a high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assembly. Transcriptomic analysis was also used to improve the genetic resolution in the identification of genetic determinants of phosgene-induced acute lung injury (ALI). We prioritized the identified genes based on whether the encoded protein was previously associated with lung injury or contained a nonsynonymous SNP within a functional domain. Candidates were selected that contained a promoter SNP that could alter a putative transcription factor binding site and had variable expression by transcriptomic analyses. The latter two criteria also required that ≥10% of mice carried the minor allele and that this allele could account for ≥10% of the phenotypic difference noted between the strains at the phenotypic extremes. This integrative, functional approach revealed 14 candidate genes that included Atp1a1, Alox5, Galnt11, Hrh1, Mbd4, Phactr2, Plxnd1, Ptprt, Reln, and Zfand4, which had significant SNP associations, and Itga9, Man1a2, Mapk14, and Vwf, which had suggestive SNP associations. Of the genes with significant SNP associations, Atp1a1, Alox5, Plxnd1, Ptprt, and Zfand4 could be associated with ALI in several ways. Using a competitive electrophoretic mobility shift analysis, Atp1a1 promoter (rs215053185) oligonucleotide containing the minor G allele formed a major distinct faster-migrating complex. In addition, a gene with a suggestive SNP association, Itga9, is linked to transforming growth factor β1 signaling, which previously has been associated with the susceptibility to ALI in mice.

Abstract
Edema fluid resorption is critical for gas exchange, and both alveolar epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) and Na,K-ATPase are accredited with key roles in the resolution of pulmonary edema. Alveolar fluid clearance (AFC) was measured in in situ ventilated lungs by instilling isosmolar 5% BSA solution with Evans Blue-labeled albumin tracer (5 ml/kg) and measuring the change in Evans Blue-labeled albumin concentration over time. Treatment with lipoxin A4 and lipoxin receptor agonist (5(S), 6(R)-7-trihydroxymethyl 17 heptanoate) significantly stimulated AFC in oleic acid (OA)-induced lung injury, with the outcome of decreased pulmonary edema. Lipoxin A4 and 5(S), 6(R)-7-trihydroxymethyl 17 heptanoate not only up-regulated the ENaC α and ENaC γ subunits protein expression, but also increased Na,K-ATPase α1 subunit protein expression and Na,K-ATPase activity in lung tissues. There was no significant difference of intracellular cAMP level between the lipoxin A4 treatment and OA group. However, the intracellular cGMP level was significantly decreased after lipoxin A4 treatment. The beneficial effects of lipoxin A4 were abrogated by butoxycarbonyl-Phe-Leu-Phe-Leu-Ph (lipoxin A4 receptor antagonist) in OA-induced lung injury. In primary rat alveolar type II epithelial cells stimulated with LPS, lipoxin A4 increased ENaC α and ENaC γ subunits protein expression and Na,K-ATPase activity. Lipoxin A4 stimulated AFC through activation of alveolar epithelial ENaC and Na,K-ATPase.

Abstract
Elevated concentrations of CO2 (hypercapnia) lead to alveolar epithelial dysfunction by promoting Na,K-ATPase endocytosis. In the present report, we investigated whether the CO2/HCO3(-) activated soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) regulates this process. We found that hypercapnia increased the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and stimulated protein kinase A (PKA) activity via sAC, which was necessary for Na,K-ATPase endocytosis. During hypercapnia, cAMP was mainly produced in specific microdomains in the proximity of the plasma membrane, leading to PKA Type Iα activation. In alveolar epithelial cells exposed to high CO2 concentrations, PKA Type Iα regulated the time-dependent phosphorylation of the actin cytoskeleton component α-adducin at serine 726. Cells expressing small hairpin RNA for PKAc, dominant-negative PKA Type Iα, small interfering RNA for α-adducin, and α-adducin with serine 726 mutated to alanine prevented Na,K-ATPase endocytosis. In conclusion, we provide evidence for a new mechanism by which hypercapnia via sAC, cAMP, PKA Type Iα, and α-adducin regulates Na,K-ATPase endocytosis in alveolar epithelial cells.

Abstract
Evidence from liquid-filled rat lungs supported the presence of CO2-dependent, active relaxation of parenchyma under normoxia by unknown mechanisms (Emery et al., 2007). This response may improve matching of alveolar ventilation (V˙A) to perfusion (Q˙) by increasing compliance and V˙A in overperfused (high CO2) regions, and decrease V˙A in underperfused regions. Here, we have more directly studied CO2-dependent parenchymal relaxation and tested a hypothesized role for actin-myosin interaction in this effect. Lung parenchymal strips (∼1.5mm×1.5mm×15mm) from 16 rats were alternately exposed to normoxic hypocapnia ( [Formula: see text] ) or hypercapnia ( [Formula: see text] ). Seven specimens were used to construct length-tension curves, and nine were tested with and without the myosin blocker 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM). The results demonstrate substantial, reversible CO2-dependent changes in parenchyma strip recoil (up to 23%) and BDM eliminates this effect, supporting a potentially important role for parenchymal myosin in V˙A/Q˙ matching.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a microvascular complication of diabetes with a complex multifactorial pathogenesis. We aimed to investigate whether chromosome 15q21-22-related gene polymorphisms could be used as markers of DR susceptibility in type 2 diabetic (T2D) individuals. METHODS Individuals were divided into three groups: (1) T2D with nonproliferative DR (NPDR; n=102); (2) T2D with proliferative DR (PDR; n=72); (3) T2D without DR (n=573). Six single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs7174997, rs3751624, rs8025011, rs17818837, rs2922220, and rs2414520) lying within chromosome 15q21-22 region were genotyped by using Illumina HumanHap550-Duo BeadChips. Genotypes/allelic frequencies and haplotypes for these polymorphisms in each group were compared. RESULTS The MYO5C related SNP (rs3751624)*A related genotype and allele are associated with higher susceptibilities to DR, including PDR and NPDR. The rs3751624*GG/AA+AG percentages in each group are (1) 75.5%/24.5%, (2) 73.6%/26.4%, and (3) 82.5%/17.5%. In contrast, the other five SNPs in each group were not significantly different. One haplotype (G-A-G-G-T-G) appears significantly different between T2D individuals with and without DR. Other haplotype distributions were not significantly different between each group. CONCLUSION The MYO5C related SNP (rs3751624)*A related genotype/allele and haplotype (G-A-G-G-T-G) might be associated with susceptibility for retinopathy in T2D individuals. Some chromosome 15q21-22* related genetic variations might contribute to the pathogenesis of DR.

Abstract
Objective Alcohol intake increases the risk of acute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and is associated with poor outcomes in patients who develop these syndromes. No specific therapies are currently available to treat or decrease the risk of ARDS in patients with alcoholism. We have recently shown increased levels of lung adenosine inhibit alveolar fluid clearance, an important predictor of outcome in patients with ARDS. We hypothesized that alcohol might worsen lung injury by increasing lung adenosine levels, resulting in impaired active Na+ transport in the lung. Methods We treated wild-type mice with alcohol administered i.p. to achieve blood alcohol levels associated with moderate to severe intoxication and measured the rate of alveolar fluid clearance and Na,K-ATPase expression in peripheral lung tissue and assessed the effect of alcohol on survival during exposure to hyperoxia. We used primary rat alveolar type II cells to investigate the mechanisms by which alcohol regulates alveolar Na+ transport. Results Exposure to alcohol reduced alveolar fluid clearance, downregulated Na,K-ATPase in the lung tissue and worsened hyperoxia-induced lung injury. Alcohol caused an increase in BAL fluid adenosine levels. A similar increase in lung adenosine levels was observed after exposure to hyperoxia. In primary rat alveolar type II cells alcohol and adenosine decreased the abundance of the Na,K-ATPase at the basolateral membrane via a mechanism that required activation of the AMPK. Conclusions Alcohol decreases alveolar fluid clearance and impairs survival from acute lung injury. Alcohol induced increases in lung adenosine levels may be responsible for reduction in alveolar fluid clearance and associated worsening of lung injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Inhaled particulate matter (PM) causes lung inflammation and epithelial dysfunction. However, the direct effect of PM on alveolar epithelial barrier integrity is not well understood. Our aim is to determine whether PM exposure affects the alveolar epithelial cells (AEC) transepithelial electrical conductance (Gt) and tight junction (TJ) proteins. METHODS Human AEC (A549) and primary rat AEC were exposed to PM of <10 µm in size (PM(10) ) and diesel exhaust particles (DEP), using titanium dioxide (TiO(2) ) as a control for particle size effects. Gt and permeability to fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (FITC-Dextran) were measured to assess barrier integrity. TJ integrity was evaluated by analysing penetration of Lanthanum nitrate (La(3+) ) under transmission electron microscopy. Surface proteins were labelled with biotin and analysed by western blot. Immunofluorescence was performed to assess colocalization of TJ proteins including occludin and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1). PM induced dissociation of occludin-ZO-1 was evaluated by co-immunoprecipitation. RESULTS PM(10) and DEP increased Gt and disrupted TJ after 3 h of treatment. PM(10) and DEP induced occludin internalization from the plasma membrane into endosomal compartments and dissociation of occludin from ZO-1. Overexpression of antioxidant enzymes manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) and catalase, prevented PM-induced Gt increase, occludin reduction from the plasma membrane and its dissociation from ZO-1. CONCLUSIONS PM induces alveolar epithelial dysfunction in part via occludin reduction at the plasma membrane and ZO-1 dissociation in AEC. Furthermore, these effects are prevented by overexpression of two different antioxidant enzymes.

Abstract
In neuroscience, myosin V motor proteins have attracted attention since they are highly expressed in brain, and absence of myosin Va in man leads to a severe neurological disease called Griscelli syndrome. While in some cells myosin V is described to act as a vesicle transport motor, an additional role in exocytosis has emerged recently. In neurons, myosin V has been linked to exocytosis of secretory vesicles and recycling endosomes. Through these functions, it is implied in regulating important brain functions including the release of neuropeptides by exocytosis of large dense-core vesicles and the insertion of neurotransmitter receptors into post-synaptic membranes. This review focuses on the role of myosin V in (i) axonal transport and stimulated exocytosis of large dense-core vesicles to regulate the secretion of neuroactive substances, (ii) tethering of the endoplasmic reticulum at cerebellar synapses to permit long-term depression, (iii) recycling of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA) receptors at hippocampal synapses during long-term potentiation, and (iv) recycling of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the neuromuscular junction. Myosin V is thus discussed as an important modulator of synaptic plasticity.

Abstract
Megalencephalic leucoencephalopathy with subcortical cysts (MLC) is a rare congenital leucodystrophy caused by mutations in MLC1, a membrane protein of unknown function. MLC1 expression in astrocyte end-feet contacting blood vessels and meninges, along with brain swelling, fluid cysts and myelin vacuolation observed in MLC patients, suggests a possible role for MLC1 in the regulation of fluid and ion homeostasis and cellular volume changes. To identify MLC1 direct interactors and dissect the molecular pathways in which MLC1 is involved, we used NH2-MLC1 domain as a bait to screen a human brain library in a yeast two-hybrid assay. We identified the β1 subunit of the Na,K-ATPase pump as one of the interacting clones and confirmed it by pull-downs, co-fractionation assays and immunofluorescence stainings in human and rat astrocytes in vitro and in brain tissue. By performing ouabain-affinity chromatography on astrocyte and brain extracts, we isolated MLC1 and the whole Na,K-ATPase enzyme in a multiprotein complex that included Kir4.1, syntrophin and dystrobrevin. Because Na,K-ATPase is involved in intracellular osmotic control and volume regulation, we investigated the effect of hypo-osmotic stress on MLC1/Na,K-ATPase relationship in astrocytes. We found that hypo-osmotic conditions increased MLC1 membrane expression and favoured MLC1/Na,K-ATPase-β1 association. Moreover, hypo-osmosis induced astrocyte swelling and the reversible formation of endosome-derived vacuoles, where the two proteins co-localized. These data suggest that through its interaction with Na,K-ATPase, MLC1 is involved in the control of intracellular osmotic conditions and volume regulation in astrocytes, opening new perspectives for understanding the pathological mechanisms of MLC disease.

Abstract
Stimulation of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase translocation to the cell surface increases active Na(+) transport, which is the driving force of alveolar fluid reabsorption, a process necessary to keep the lungs free of edema and to allow normal gas exchange. Here, we provide evidence that insulin increases alveolar fluid reabsorption and Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase activity by increasing its translocation to the plasma membrane in alveolar epithelial cells. Insulin-induced Akt activation is necessary and sufficient to promote Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase translocation to the plasma membrane. Phosphorylation of AS160 by Akt is also required in this process, whereas inactivation of the Rab GTPase-activating protein domain of AS160 promotes partial Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase translocation in the absence of insulin. We found that Rab10 functions as a downstream target of AS160 in insulin-induced Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase translocation. Collectively, these results suggest that Akt plays a major role in Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase intracellular translocation and thus in alveolar fluid reabsorption.

Abstract
Recruitment of the Na,K-ATPase to the plasma membrane of alveolar epithelial cells results in increased active Na(+) transport and fluid clearance in a process that requires an intact microtubule network. However, the microtubule motors involved in this process have not been identified. In the present report, we studied the role of kinesin-1, a plus-end microtubule molecular motor that has been implicated in the movement of organelles in the Na,K-ATPase traffic. We determined by confocal microscopy and biochemical assays that kinesin-1 and the Na,K-ATPase are present in the same membranous cellular compartment. Knockdown of kinesin-1 heavy chain (KHC) or the light chain-2 (KLC2), but not of the light chain-1 (KLC1), decreased the movement of Na,K-ATPase-containing vesicles when compared to sham siRNA-transfected cells (control group). Thus, a specific isoform of kinesin-1 is required for microtubule-dependent recruitment of Na,K-ATPase to the plasma membrane, which is of physiological significance.
