Abstract
Endothelial cells (ECs) degrade the extracellular matrix of vessel walls and contact surrounding cells to facilitate migration during angiogenesis, leading to formation of an EC-tubular network (ETN). Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) support ETN formation when co-cultured with ECs, but the mechanism is incompletely understood. We examined the role of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) system, i.e. the serine protease uPA, its inhibitor PAI-1, receptor uPAR/CD87, clearance by the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP1) and their molecular partners, in the formation of ETNs supported by adipose tissue-derived MSC. Co-culture of human umbilical vein ECs (HUVEC) with MSC increased mRNA expression levels of uPAR, MMP14, VEGFR2, TGFβ1, integrin β3 and Notch pathway components (Notch1 receptor and ligands: Dll1, Dll4, Jag1) in HUVECs and uPA, uPAR, TGFβ1, integrin β3, Jag1, Notch3 receptor in MSC. Inhibition at several steps in the activation process indicates that uPA, uPAR and LRP1 cross-talk with αv-integrins, VEGFR2 and Notch receptors/ligands to mediate ETN formation in HUVEC-MSC co-culture. The urokinase system mediates ETN formation through the coordinated action of uPAR, uPA's catalytic activity, its binding to uPAR and its nuclear translocation. These studies identify potential targets to help control aberrant angiogenesis with minimal impact on healthy vasculature.

Abstract
RATIONALE Neointimal hyperplasia characterized by abnormal accumulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) is a hallmark of occlusive disorders such as atherosclerosis, postangioplasty restenosis, vein graft stenosis, and allograft vasculopathy. Cyclic nucleotides are vital in SMC proliferation and migration, which are regulated by cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs). OBJECTIVE Our goal is to understand the regulation and function of PDEs in SMC pathogenesis of vascular diseases. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed screening for genes differentially expressed in normal contractile versus proliferating synthetic SMCs. We observed that PDE1C expression was low in contractile SMCs but drastically elevated in synthetic SMCs in vitro and in various mouse vascular injury models in vivo. In addition, PDE1C was highly induced in neointimal SMCs of human coronary arteries. More importantly, injury-induced neointimal formation was significantly attenuated by PDE1C deficiency or PDE1 inhibition in vivo. PDE1 inhibition suppressed vascular remodeling of human saphenous vein explants ex vivo. In cultured SMCs, PDE1C deficiency or PDE1 inhibition attenuated SMC proliferation and migration. Mechanistic studies revealed that PDE1C plays a critical role in regulating the stability of growth factor receptors, such as PDGF receptor β (PDGFRβ) known to be important in pathological vascular remodeling. PDE1C interacts with low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 and PDGFRβ, thus regulating PDGFRβ endocytosis and lysosome-dependent degradation in an low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1-dependent manner. A transmembrane adenylyl cyclase cAMP-dependent protein kinase cascade modulated by PDE1C is critical in regulating PDGFRβ degradation. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrated that PDE1C is an important regulator of SMC proliferation, migration, and neointimal hyperplasia, in part through modulating endosome/lysosome-dependent PDGFRβ protein degradation via low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1.

Abstract
The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1) is a membrane receptor displaying both scavenging and signaling functions. The wide variety of extracellular ligands and of cytoplasmic scaffolding and signaling proteins interacting with LRP-1 gives it a major role not only in physiological processes, such as embryogenesis and development, but also in critical pathological situations, including cancer and neurological disorders. In this review, we describe the molecular mechanisms involved at distinct levels in the regulation of LRP-1, from its expression to the proper location and stability at the cell surface.

Abstract
Endostatin, the C-terminal fragment of collagen XVIII, is a potent anti-angiogenic factor that significantly modulates the gene expression pattern in endothelial cells. Upon cell surface binding, endostatin can not only function extracellularly, but also translocate to the nucleus within minutes. However, the mechanism by which this occurs is partially understood. Here we systematically investigated the nuclear translocation mechanism of endostatin. By chemical inhibition and RNA interference, we firstly observed that clathrin-mediated endocytosis, but not caveolae-dependent endocytosis or macropinocytosis, is essential for the nuclear translocation of endostatin. We then indentified that nucleolin and integrin α5β1, two widely accepted endostatin receptors, mediate this clathrin-dependent uptake process, which also involves urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR). Either mutagenesis study, fluorescence resonance energy transfer assay, or fluorescence cell imaging demonstrates that nucleolin and integrin α5β1 interact with uPAR simultaneously upon endostatin stimulation. Blockade of uPAR decreases not only the interaction between nucleolin and integrin α5β1, but also the uptake process, suggesting that the nucleolin/uPAR/integrin α5β1 complex facilitates the internalization of endostatin. After endocytosis, nucleolin further regulates the nuclear transport of endostatin. RNA interference and mutational analysis revealed that the nuclear translocation of endostatin involves the association of nucleolin with importin α1β1 via the nuclear localization sequence. Taken together, this study reveals the pathway by which endostatin translocates to the nucleus and the importance of nucleolin in this process, providing a new perspective for the functional investigation of the nuclear-translocated endostatin in endothelial cells.

Abstract
Urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) and PA inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) are elevated in acute lung injury, which is characterized by a loss of endothelial barrier function and the development of pulmonary edema. Two-chain uPA and uPA-PAI-1 complexes (1-20 nM) increased the permeability of monolayers of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) in vitro and lung permeability in vivo. The effects of uPA-PAI-1 were abrogated by the nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor L-NAME (N(D)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester). Two-chain uPA (1-20 nM) and uPA-PAI-1 induced phosphorylation of endothelial NOS-Ser(1177) in PMVECs, which was followed by generation of NO and the nitrosylation and dissociation of β-catenin from VE-cadherin. uPA-induced phosphorylation of eNOS was decreased by anti-low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP) antibody and an LRP antagonist, receptor-associated protein (RAP), and when binding to the uPA receptor was blocked by the isolated growth factor-like domain of uPA. uPA-induced phosphorylation of eNOS was also inhibited by the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor, myristoylated PKI, but was not dependent on PI3K-Akt signaling. LRP blockade and inhibition of PKA prevented uPA- and uPA-PAI-1-induced permeability of PMVEC monolayers in vitro and uPA-induced lung permeability in vivo. These studies identify a novel pathway involved in regulating PMVEC permeability and suggest the utility of uPA-based approaches that attenuate untoward permeability following acute lung injury while preserving its salutary effects on fibrinolysis and airway remodeling.

Abstract
The dystrophin-related and -associated protein dystrobrevin is a component of the dystrophin-associated protein complex, which directly links the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. It is now thought that this complex also serves as a dynamic scaffold for signaling proteins, and dystrobrevin may play a role in this context. Since dystrobrevin involvement in signaling pathways seems to be dependent on its interaction with other proteins, we sought new insights and performed a two-hybrid screen of a mouse brain cDNA library using beta-dystrobrevin, the isoform expressed in non-muscle tissues, as bait. Among the positive clones characterized after the screen, one encodes the regulatory subunit RIalpha of the cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). We confirmed the interaction by in vitro and in vivo association assays, and mapped the binding site of beta-dystrobrevin on RIalpha to the amino-terminal region encompassing the dimerization/docking domain of PKA regulatory subunit. We also found that the domain of interaction for RIalpha is contained in the amino-terminal region of beta-dystrobrevin. We obtained evidence that beta-dystrobrevin also interacts directly with RIIbeta, and that not only beta-dystrobrevin but also alpha-dystrobrevin interacts with PKA regulatory subunits. We show that both alpha and beta-dystrobrevin are specific phosphorylation substrates for PKA and that protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is associated with dystrobrevins. Our results suggest a new role for dystrobrevin as a scaffold protein that may play a role in different cellular processes involving PKA signaling.

Abstract
After transmission by infected mosquitoes, malaria sporozoites rapidly travel to the liver. To infect hepatocytes, sporozoites traverse Kupffer cells, but surprisingly, the parasites are not killed by these resident macrophages of the liver. Here we show that Plasmodium sporozoites and recombinant circumsporozoite protein (CSP) suppress the respiratory burst in Kupffer cells. Sporozoites and CSP increased the intracellular concentration of cyclic adenosyl mono-phosphate (cAMP) and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate in Kupffer cells, but not in hepatocytes or liver endothelia. Preincubation with cAMP analogues or inhibition of phosphodiesterase also inhibited the respiratory burst. By contrast, adenylyl cyclase inhibition abrogated the suppressive effect of sporozoites. Selective protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitors failed to reverse the CSP-mediated blockage and stimulation of the exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (EPAC), but not PKA inhibited the respiratory burst. Both blockage of the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP-1) with receptor-associated protein and elimination of cell surface proteoglycans inhibited the cAMP increase in Kupffer cells. We propose that by binding of CSP to LRP-1 and cell surface proteoglycans, malaria sporozoites induce a cAMP/EPAC-dependent, but PKA-independent signal transduction pathway that suppresses defence mechanisms in Kupffer cells. This allows the sporozoites to safely pass through these professional phagocytes and to develop inside neighbouring hepatocytes.

Abstract
N Oct-3, a transcription factor member of the POU protein family, is implicated in normal central nervous system development but also in melanoma growth. Its DNA-binding domain (DBD) comprises two subdomains, POUs and POUh, joined by a linker peptide. We have previously shown that N Oct-3 can interact with the already described PORE and MORE DNA motifs, but also with a new structural element we have termed NORE. Having observed that both the PORE and NORE DNA-association modes depend on a strong anchoring of the POUh subdomain rigid arm into the DNA-target minor groove, in contrast to the MORE mode, we have formulated the hypothesis that phosphorylation of the conserved Ser101 residue located in the N Oct-3 POUh arm could lead to differential results in DNA binding according to the type of target. Here we demonstrate that, in vitro, Ser101 is phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA), either purified or contained in melanoma (624 mel) nuclear extract, and that this phosphorylation indeed significantly reduced N Oct-3 DBD binding to PORE and NORE motifs, most likely by hampering the POUh rigid arm insertion in the DNA minor groove. Conversely, no effect was observed on the binding of N Oct-3 DBD to MORE sequences. Finally, once bound to its DNA targets, N Oct-3 DBD is less susceptible to PKA activity. We conclude that transcription of genes exhibiting a MORE motif in their promoter should be less affected by N Oct-3 phosphorylation than that of genes switched on by PORE or NORE sequences.

Abstract
We examined the participation of MAPK and PKA in the Golgi complex disassembly caused by light-activated Calphostin C in HT-29 cells. When these cells were incubated with Calphostin C, fragmentation and dispersal of the Golgi complex was observed as assessed by immunofluorescence microscopy. Electron microscopy analysis showed that clusters of vesicles and large tubule-vesicular membrane structures, resembling the Golgi remnants present in mitotic cells, substituted the Golgi stacks. In addition, Calphostin C treatment caused inhibition of the endocytic route. We confirmed that the Golgi disassembly was not due to PKC inhibition, and suggested, based on the use of specific inhibitors, that other kinases are involved. It was shown that pretreatment with PD98059 and H-89, both inhibitors of MAPK and PKA, respectively, prior to incubation with Calphostin C, caused blockade of the Golgi disassembly, as well as the inhibition of the endocytic pathway caused by this drug. This finding supports the existence of a novel mechanism by which MAPK and PKA may regulate the Golgi breakdown caused by Calphostin C in HT-29 cells.

Abstract
AbstractThe expression of human (h) calcitonin (CT) and its receptor (CTR) is localized to basal epithelium in benign prostates but is distributed in whole epithelium of malignant prostates. Moreover, the abundance of hCT and CTR mRNA in primary prostate tumors positively correlates with the tumor grade. We tested the hypothesis that the modulation of endogenous hCT expression of prostate cancer (PC) cell lines alters their oncogenicity. The effect of modulation of hCT expression on oncogenic characteristics was examined in LNCaP and PC-3M cell lines. The endogenous hCT expression was modulated using either constitutively active expression vector containing hCT cDNA or anti-hCT hammerhead ribozymes. The changes in the oncogenicity of cell sublines was assessed with cell proliferation assays, invasion assays, colony formation assays, and in vivo growth in athymic nude mice. Up-regulation of hCT in PC-3M cells and or enforced hCT expression in LNCaP cells dramatically enhanced their oncogenic characteristics. In contrast, the down-regulation of hCT in PC-3M cells led to a dramatic decline in their oncogenicity. These results, when combined with our other results, that the expression of hCT in primary PCs increase with tumor grade, suggest an important role for hCT in the progression of PC to a metastatic phenotype.

Abstract
Calcitonin (CT) is synthesized and secreted in prostate epithelium, and its secretion from malignant prostates is several folds higher than that in benign prostates. CT receptor (CTR) is expressed in malignant prostate epithelium, and its activation increases invasiveness of prostate cancer (PC) cells via activation of protein kinase A. Since the role of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) in invasion of PC has been established, we tested the hypothesis that CT increases invasion of PC cells by stimulating uPA secretion from PC cells. Exogenously added CT stimulated the secretion of uPA from PC-3M cells in a dose-dependent manner, which was blocked by Rp.cAMP, a competitive inhibitor of protein kinase A. CT stimulated the secretion of MMP-2 and MMP-9 from PC-3M cells, and also increased their invasiveness. Both these actions of CT were blocked by uPA-neutralizing antibodies. Immunofluorescence studies with PC-3M cells suggest that CT stimulated redistribution of cellular uPA to focal adhesion sites, which was further confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation of uPA with focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in response to CT. These results suggest that CT increases invasiveness of PC cells by stimulating PKA-mediated uPA secretion and by redirecting the secreted uPA to focal adhesion sites. The results also suggest that uPA may, at least in part, mediate proinvasive actions of CT on PC cells by stimulating the secretion of gelatinases and degradation of focal adhesion sites.

Abstract
Antibodies against receptors that undergo transcytosis across the blood-brain barrier (BBB) have been used as vectors to target drugs or therapeutic peptides into the brain. We have recently discovered a novel single domain antibody, FC5, which transmigrates across human cerebral endothelial cells in vitro and the BBB in vivo. The purpose of this study was to characterize mechanisms of FC5 endocytosis and transcytosis across the BBB and its putative receptor on human brain endothelial cells. The transport of FC5 across human brain endothelial cells was polarized, charge independent and temperature dependent, suggesting a receptor-mediated process. FC5 taken up by human brain endothelial cells co-localized with clathrin but not with caveolin-1 by immunochemistry and was detected in clathrin-enriched subcellular fractions by western blot. The transendothelial migration of FC5 was reduced by inhibitors of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, K+ depletion and chlorpromazine, but was insensitive to caveolae inhibitors, filipin, nystatin or methyl-beta-cyclodextrin. Following internalization, FC5 was targeted to early endosomes, bypassed late endosomes/lysosomes and remained intact after transcytosis. The transcytosis process was inhibited by agents that affect actin cytoskeleton or intracellular signaling through PI3-kinase. Pretreatment of human brain endothelial cells with wheatgerm agglutinin, sialic acid, alpha(2,3)-neuraminidase or Maackia amurensis agglutinin that recognizes alpha(2,3)-, but not with Sambucus nigra agglutinin that recognizes alpha(2,6) sialylgalactosyl residues, significantly reduced FC5 transcytosis. FC5 failed to recognize brain endothelial cells-derived lipids, suggesting that it binds luminal alpha(2,3)-sialoglycoprotein receptor which triggers clathrin-mediated endocytosis. This putative receptor may be a new target for developing brain-targeting drug delivery vectors.

Abstract
Protease nexin-1 (PN-1), an inhibitor of serine proteases, contributes to tissue homeostasis and influences the behavior of some tumor cells. The internalization of PN-1 protease complexes is considered to be mediated by the low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein 1 (LRP1). In this study, both wild-type and LRP1-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) were shown to internalize PN-1. Receptor associated protein (RAP) interfered with PN-1 uptake only in wild-type MEF cells, indicating that another receptor mediates PN-1 uptake in the absence of LRP1. In LRP1-/- MEF cells, inhibitor sensitivity and kinetic values (t(1/2) at 45 min) of PN-1 uptake showed a similarity to syndecan-1-mediated endocytosis. In these cells, PN-1 uptake was increased by overexpression of full-length syndecan-1 and decreased by RNA interference targeting this proteoglycan. Most important, in contrast to PKA activation known to be triggered by LRP1-mediated internalization, our study shows that syndecan-1-mediated internalization of PN-1 stimulated the Ras-ERK signaling pathway.

Abstract
The angiogenic response of endothelial cells initiated by different growth factors is accompanied by assembly of cell surface-bound proteolytic machinery as a prerequisite for focal invasion. We have shown previously how the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) initiates proteolysis by activation of pro-urokinase (pro-PA) via the VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR-2). We now show that the cell surface receptor of the uPA-system, the urokinase receptor (uPAR), is redistributed to focal adhesions at the leading edge of endothelial cells in response to VEGF. VEGF165 and VEGF-E, both interacting with VEGFR-2, but not PlGF exclusively stimulating VEGFR-1, induce within minutes internalization of uPAR via an LDL receptor-like molecule, dependent on generation of active uPA and the presence of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). uPAR seems to play a pivotal role in VEGFR-2-induced endothelial cell migration because cleavage of surface uPAR impaired the migratory response of endothelial cells toward VEGF-E, but not toward PlGF.

Abstract
Current models put forward that the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is efficiently internalized via clathrin-coated pits only in response to ligand-induced activation of its intrinsic tyrosine kinase and is subsequently directed into a lysosomal-proteasomal degradation pathway by mechanisms that include receptor tyrosine phosphorylation and ubiquitylation. Herein, we report a novel mechanism of EGFR internalization that does not require ligand binding, receptor kinase activity, or ubiquitylation and does not direct the receptor into a degradative pathway. Inhibition of basal protein kinase A (PKA) activity by H89 and the cell-permeable substrate peptide Myr-PKI induced internalization of 40-60% unoccupied, inactive EGFR, and its accumulation into early endosomes without affecting endocytosis of transferrin and mu-opioid receptors. This effect was abrogated by interfering with clathrin function. Thus, the predominant distribution of inactive EGFR at the plasma membrane is not simply by default but involves a PKA-dependent restrictive condition resulting in receptor avoidance of endocytosis until it is stimulated by ligand. Furthermore, PKA inhibition may contribute to ligand-induced EGFR endocytosis because epidermal growth factor inhibited 26% of PKA basal activity. On the other hand, H89 did not alter ligand-induced internalization of EGFR but doubled its half-time of down-regulation by retarding its segregation into degradative compartments, seemingly due to a delay in the receptor tyrosine phosphorylation and ubiquitylation. Our results reveal that PKA basal activity controls EGFR function at two levels: 1) residence time of inactive EGFR at the cell surface by a process of "endocytic evasion," modulating the accessibility of receptors to stimuli; and 2) sorting events leading to the down-regulation pathway of ligand-activated EGFR, determining the length of its intracellular signaling. They add a new dimension to the fine-tuning of EGFR function in response to cellular demands and cross talk with other signaling receptors.

Abstract
Megalin is the most abundant endocytic receptor in the proximal tubule epithelium (PTE), where it is concentrated in clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) and vesicles in the brush border region. The heterotrimeric G protein alpha subunit, Galphai3, has also been localized to the brush border region of PTE. By immunofluorescence GIPC and GAIP, components of G protein-mediated signaling pathways, are also concentrated in the brush border region of PTE and are present in megalin-expressing cell lines. By cell fractionation, these signaling molecules cosediment with megalin in brush border and microvillar fractions. GAIP is found by immunoelectron microscopy in CCPs, and GIPC is found in CCPs and apical tubules of endocytic compartments in the renal brush border. In precipitation assays, GST-GIPC specifically binds megalin. The concentration of Galphai3, GIPC, and GAIP with megalin in endocytic compartments of the proximal tubule, where extensive endocytosis occurs, and the interaction between GIPC and the cytoplasmic tail of megalin suggest a model whereby G protein-mediated signaling may regulate megalin's endocytic function and/or trafficking.

Abstract
1. The present study investigated the role of second messenger-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and C (PKC) in the regulation of endogenous secretin receptor responsiveness in NG108-15 mouse neuroblastomaxrat glioma hybrid cells. 2. In whole cell cyclic AMP accumulation studies, activation of PKC either by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or by purinoceptor stimulation using uridine 5'-triphosphate (UTP) decreased secretin receptor responsiveness. PKC activation also inhibited forskolin-stimulated cyclic AMP accumulation but did not affect cyclic AMP responses mediated by the prostanoid-IP receptor agonist iloprost, or the A(2) adenosine receptor agonist 5'-(N-ethylcarboxamido) adenosine (NECA). 3. In additivity experiments, saturating concentrations of secretin and iloprost were found to be additive in terms of cyclic AMP accumulation, whereas saturating concentrations of NECA and iloprost together were not. This suggests compartmentalization of G(s)-coupling components in NG108-15 cells and possible heterologous regulation of secretin receptor responsiveness at the level of adenylyl cyclase activation. 4. Cells exposed to the PKA inhibitor H-89, exhibited a time-dependent increase in secretin receptor responsiveness compared to control cells. This effect was selective since cyclic AMP responses to forskolin, iloprost and NECA were not affected by H-89 treatment. Furthermore, treatment with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide produced a time-dependent increase in secretin receptor responsiveness. 5. Together these results indicate that endogenous secretin receptor responsiveness is regulated by PKC, PKA and protein neosynthesis in NG108-15 cells.

Abstract
The low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-related protein (LRP) is a multiligand endocytic receptor that belongs to the LDL receptor family. Recently, studies have revealed new roles of LDL receptor family members as transducers of extracellular signals. Our previous studies have demonstrated LRP phosphorylation within its cytoplasmic tail, but the nature of LRP phosphorylation and its potential function was unknown. In the present study using both in vivo and in vitro analysis, we found that LRP phosphorylation is mediated by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA). Using site-directed mutagenesis and LRP minireceptor constructs, we further identified the predominant LRP phosphorylation site at serine 76 of its cytoplasmic tail. Finally, we demonstrated that mutations of serine 76, which abolish LRP phosphorylation by PKA, result in a decrease in the initial endocytosis rate of LRP and a lower efficiency in delivery of ligand for degradation. Thus, the role of PKA phosphorylation of LRP in receptor-mediated endocytosis may provide a mechanism by which the endocytic function of LRP can be regulated by external signals.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis includes cycles of assembly and disassembly of the clathrin-coated vesicle constituents. How these cycles are regulated is still not fully known but previous studies have indicated that phosphorylation of coat subunits may play a role. Here we describe that beta2-adaptin undergoes cycles of phosphorylation/de-phosphorylation in intact cells. Thus, beta2-adaptin was constitutively de-phosphorylated by serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2A and phosphorylated by a staurosporine-sensitive kinase in vivo. Confocal laser scanning microscopy demonstrated that phosphorylated AP2 complexes were found more evenly distributed at the plasma membrane compared to non-phosphorylated AP2 complexes which were found in aggregates. Finally, we found that phosphorylation of beta2-adaptin correlated with inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Our results support the hypothesis that phosphorylation/de-phosphorylation of coat proteins plays a regulatory role in the assembly/disassembly cycle of clathrin-coated vesicles.

Abstract
The small GTP-binding protein ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) is an essential component of the molecular machinery that catalyzes the formation of membrane-bound transport intermediates. By using an in vitro assay that reproduces recruitment of cytosolic proteins onto purified, high salt-washed Golgi membranes, we have analyzed the role of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) on ARF1 incorporation. Addition to this assay of either pure catalytic subunits of PKA (C-PKA) or cAMP increased ARF1 binding. By contrast, ARF1 association was inhibited following C-PKA inactivation with either PKA inhibitory peptide or RIIalpha as well as after cytosol depletion of C-PKA. C-PKA also stimulated recruitment and activation of a recombinant form of human ARF1 in the absence of additional cytosolic components. The binding step could be dissociated from the activation reaction and found to be independent of guanine nucleotides and saturable. This step was stimulated by C-PKA in an ATP-dependent manner. Dephosphorylated Golgi membranes exhibited a decreased ability to recruit ARF1, and this effect was reverted by addition of C-PKA. Following an increase in the intracellular level of cAMP, ARF proteins redistributed from cytosol to the perinuclear Golgi region of intact cells. Collectively, the results show that PKA exerts a key regulatory role in the recruitment of ARF1 onto Golgi membranes. In contrast, PKA modulators did not affect recruitment of beta-COP onto Golgi membranes containing prebound ARF1.

Abstract
The Golgi complex represents a major subcellular location of protein kinase A (PKA) concentration in mammalian cells where it has been previously shown to be involved in vesicle-mediated protein transport processes. We have studied the factors that influence the interaction of PKA typeII subunits with the Golgi complex. In addition to the cytosol, both the catalytic (Calpha) and regulatory (RIIalpha) subunits of PKAII were detected at both sides of the Golgi stack, particularly in elements of the cis- and trans-Golgi networks. PKAII subunits, in contrast, were practically absent from the middle Golgi cisternae. Cell treatment with either brefeldin A, AlF(4-) or at low temperature induced PKAII dissociation from the Golgi complex and redistribution to the cytosol. This suggested the existence of a cycle of association/dissociation of PKAII holoenzyme to the Golgi. The interaction of purified RIIalpha with Golgi membranes was studied in vitro and found not to be affected by brefeldin A while it was sensitive to modulators of heterotrimeric G proteins such as AlF(4-), GTPgammaS, beta(gamma) subunits and mastoparan. RII(alphaa) binding was stimulated by recombinant, myristoylated Galpha(i3) subunit and inhibited by cAMP. Pretreatment of Golgi membranes with bacterial toxins known to catalyze ADP-ribosylation of selected Galpha subunits also modified RIIalpha binding. Taken together the data support a regulatory role for Golgi-associated Galpha proteins in PKAII recruitment from the cytosol.

Abstract
The endocytic pathway of the secretin receptor, a class II GPCR, is unknown. Some class I G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)-AR), internalize in clathrin-coated vesicles and this process is mediated by G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs), beta-arrestin, and dynamin. However, other class I GPCRs, for example, the angiotensin II type 1A receptor (AT(1A)R), exhibit different internalization properties than the beta(2)-AR. The secretin receptor, a class II GPCR, is a GRK substrate, suggesting that like the beta(2)-AR, it may internalize via a beta-arrestin and dynamin directed process. In this paper we characterize the internalization of a wild-type and carboxyl-terminal (COOH-terminal) truncated secretin receptor using flow cytometry and fluorescence imaging, and compare the properties of secretin receptor internalization to that of the beta(2)-AR. In HEK 293 cells, sequestration of both the wild-type and COOH-terminal truncated secretin receptors was unaffected by GRK phosphorylation, whereas inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase mediated phosphorylation markedly decreased sequestration. Addition of secretin to cells resulted in a rapid translocation of beta-arrestin to plasma membrane localized receptors; however, secretin receptor internalization was not reduced by expression of dominant negative beta-arrestin. Thus, like the AT(1A)R, secretin receptor internalization is not inhibited by reagents that interfere with clathrin-coated vesicle-mediated internalization and in accordance with these results, we show that secretin and AT(1A) receptors colocalize in endocytic vesicles. This study demonstrates that the ability of secretin receptor to undergo GRK phosphorylation and beta-arrestin binding is not sufficient to facilitate or mediate its internalization. These results suggest that other receptors may undergo endocytosis by mechanisms used by the secretin and AT(1A) receptors and that kinases other than GRKs may play a greater role in GPCR endocytosis than previously appreciated.

Abstract
The effect of protein kinase inhibitors on transferrin receptor (TR) internalization was examined in HeLa, A431, 3T3-L1 cells, and primary chicken embryo fibroblasts. We show that TR endocytosis is not affected by tyrosine kinase or protein kinase C inhibitors, but is inhibited by one serine/threonine kinase inhibitor, H-89. Inhibition occurred within 15 min, was completely reversible after H-89 withdrawal, and was specific for endocytosis rather than pinocytosis since a TR mutant lacking an internalization signal was not affected. Interestingly, H-89 also inhibited the internalization of a TR chimera containing the major histocompatibility complex class II invariant chain cytoplasmic tail, indicating that the effect was not specific for the TR. Since H-89 inhibits a number of kinases, we employed a permeabilized cell endocytosis assay to further characterize the kinase. In permeabilized 3T3-L1 cells, addition of pseudosubstrate inhibitor peptides of casein kinase II (CKII) blocked TR internalization by more than 50%, whereas pseudosubstrates of cyclic AMP-dependent kinase A, protein kinase C, and casein kinase I had no effect. Furthermore, addition of purified CKII to the cell-free reactions containing CKII pseudosubstrates reversed the endocytosis block, suggesting that CKII or a CKII-like activity is required for constitutive endocytosis.

Abstract
Ovarian androgen production is rate limiting for follicular maturation and can induce follicular atresia. Thus, it is important to define the actions of the intraovarian agents, such as apolipoprotein (apo) E, that modulate theca cell androgen production. Theca cell androgen production is stimulated at low concentrations and inhibited at higher concentrations of native apo E. The apo E peptide, acetyl-Y(LRKLRKRLLRDADDL)(2)C or acetyl-Y(141-155)(2)C, has low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and LDL receptor-related protein-binding activity, and it mimics the activity of native apo E in the theca-interstitial cell system. To define the role of members of the LDL receptor superfamily in the apo E peptide-mediated responses, we found that receptor-associated protein prevented the stimulation without altering the inhibition of androstenedione production. The apo E peptide (129-162), which has no LDL receptor-binding activity, did not stimulate androstenedione production. The apo E peptide acetyl-Y(141-155)(2)C did not stimulate androstenedione production when cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans were degraded with heparinase. The apo E peptide acetyl-Y(141-155)(2)C bound to heparin, a property of LDL receptor ligands, and in this complex the peptide had no effect on androstenedione production. These observations support the conclusion that apo E-mediated stimulation, but not inhibition, of ovarian theca cell androstenedione production was mediated by members of the LDL receptor superfamily.

Abstract
Inflammatory mediators like bacterial lipopolysaccharide induce monocytes to express tissue factor (TF), the cell-surface protein that triggers the blood clotting cascade in hemostasis and thrombotic disease. The physiologic ligand for TF is the serine protease, factor VIIa (FVIIa), and the resulting bimolecular enzyme, TF/FVIIa, can be reversibly inhibited by tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI). Culturing monocytic cells in the presence of both FVIIa and TFPI caused down-regulation of TF expression via reducing its half-life. To exert this effect, FVIIa had to be competent to bind both TF and TFPI, and TFPI had to contain the C-terminal domain required for binding to other cell-surface receptors, including the low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein (LRP). TF down-regulation by FVIIa plus TFPI was abrogated by the 39-kDa receptor-associated protein, which blocks binding of all known ligands to LRP. Furthermore, treatment with FVIIa plus TFPI caused monocyte TF to colocalize with alpha-adaptin, a component of clathrin-coated pits. Thus, in addition to reversibly inhibiting TF/FVIIa catalytic activity, TFPI also mediates the permanent down-regulation of cell-surface TF in monocytic cells via LRP-dependent internalization and degradation. This represents an unusual mechanism for receptor internalization, requiring ligand-dependent bridging of one cell-surface receptor (TF) to a second cell-surface receptor (LRP), the latter being capable of clathrin-mediated internalization.
