Free Radic Biol Med 2021; 172:550-561. [PMID: 34245858 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2021.07.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2021] [Revised: 06/24/2021] [Accepted: 07/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The small GTPase Arf6 regulates many cellular processes, including cytoskeletal remodeling, receptor endocytosis, and pathogen phagocytosis. Arf6 silencing in neutrophil (PMN)-like cells is well-known to inhibit chemotactic peptide-mediated activation of phospholipase D, the oxidative burst, and β2 integrin-dependent adhesion. In conditional knockout (cKO) mice, the migration to inflammatory sites of Arf6-deficient PMNs was diminished and associated with reduced cell surface expression of β2 integrins. In this study we assessed the impact of Arf6 depletion on the functions and gene expression profile of PMNs isolated from the mouse air pouch. Numerous genes involved in response to oxygen levels, erythrocyte and myeloid differentiation, macrophage chemotaxis, response to chemicals, apoptosis, RNA destabilization, endosome organization, and vesicle transport were differentially expressed in PMNs cKO for Arf6. Lpar6 and Lacc-1 were the most up-regulated and down-regulated genes, respectively. The deletion of Arf6 also decreased Lacc-1 protein level in PMNs, and silencing of Arf6 in THP-1 monocytic cells delayed LPS-mediated Lacc-1 expression. We report that fMLP or zymosan-induced glycolysis and oxygen consumption rate were both decreased in air pouch PMNs but not in bone marrow PMNs of Arf6 cKO mice. Reduced oxygen consumption correlated with a decrease in superoxide and ROS production. Deletion of Arf6 in PMNs also reduced phagocytosis and interfered with apoptosis. The data suggest that Arf6 regulates energy metabolism, which may contribute to impaired phagocytosis, ROS production, and apoptosis in PMN-Arf6 cKO. This study provides new information on the functions and the inflammatory pathways influenced by Arf6 in PMNs.

Anti-allergic drug azelastine suppresses colon tumorigenesis by directly targeting ARF1 to inhibit IQGAP1-ERK-Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission. Am J Cancer Res 2021; 11:1828-1844.

Abstract
This study aimed to screen novel anticancer strategies from FDA-approved non-cancer drugs and identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: A library consisting of 1056 FDA-approved drugs was screened for anticancer agents. WST-1, colony-formation, flow cytometry, and tumor xenograft assays were used to determine the anticancer effect of azelastine. Quantitative proteomics, confocal imaging, Western blotting and JC-1 assays were performed to examine the effects on mitochondrial pathways. The target protein of azelastine was analyzed and confirmed by DARTS, WST-1, Biacore and tumor xenograft assays. Immunohistochemistry, gain- and loss-of-function experiments, WST-1, colony-formation, immunoprecipitation, and tumor xenograft assays were used to examine the functional and clinical significance of ARF1 in colon tumorigenesis. Results: Azelastine, a current anti-allergic drug, was found to exert a significant inhibitory effect on CRC cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo, but not on ARF1-deficient or ARF1-T48S mutant cells. ARF1 was identified as a direct target of azelastine. High ARF1 expression was associated with advanced stages and poor survival of CRC. ARF1 promoted colon tumorigenesis through its interaction with IQGAP1 and subsequent activation of ERK signaling and mitochondrial fission by enhancing the interaction of IQGAP1 with MEK and ERK. Mechanistically, azelastine bound to Thr-48 in ARF1 and repressed its activity, decreasing Drp1 phosphorylation. This, in turn, inhibited mitochondrial fission and suppressed colon tumorigenesis by blocking IQGAP1-ERK signaling. Conclusions: This study provides the first evidence that azelastine may be novel therapeutics for CRC treatment. ARF1 promotes colon tumorigenesis, representing a promising biomarker and therapeutic target in CRC.

Assessment of Arf6 Deletion in PLB-985 Differentiated in Neutrophil-Like Cells and in Mouse Neutrophils: Impact on Adhesion and Migration. Mediators Inflamm 2020; 2020:2713074.

Abstract
Chemoattractant sensing, adhesiveness, and migration are critical events underlying the recruitment of neutrophils (PMNs) to sites of inflammation or infection. Defects in leukocyte adhesion or migration result in immunodeficiency disorders characterized by recurrent infections. In this study, we evaluated the role of Arf6 on PMN adhesion in vitro and on migration to inflammatory sites using PMN-Arf6 conditional knockout (cKO) mice. In PMN-like PLB-985 silenced for Arf6 fMLP-mediated adhesion to the β2 integrin ligands, ICAM-1 and fibrinogen or the β1/β2 integrin ligand fibronectin was significantly reduced. Furthermore, overexpression of wild-type Arf6 promoted basal and fMLP-induced adhesion to immobilized integrin ligands, while overexpression of the dominant-negative Arf6 has the opposite effects. Using the Elane-Cre deleting mouse strains, we report that the level of Arf6 deletion in inflammatory PMNs isolated from the dorsal air pouches was stronger when compared to naïve cells isolated from the bone marrow. In PMN-Arf6 cKO mice, the recruitment of PMNs into the dorsal air pouch injected with LPS or the chemoattractant fMLP was significantly diminished. Impaired cell migration correlated with reduced cell surface expression of CD11a and CD11b in Arf6 cKO PMNs. Our results highlight that Arf6 regulates the activity and possibly the recycling of PMN integrins, and this compromises PMN migration to inflammatory sites.

Abstract
Cell polarization is a key step for leukocytes adhesion and transmigration during leukocytes' inflammatory infiltration. Polarized localization of plasma membrane (PM) phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) directs the polarization of RPH3A, which contains a PtdIns4P binding site. Consequently, RPH3A mediates the RAB21 and PIP5K1C90 polarization, which is important for neutrophil adhesion to endothelia during inflammation. However, the mechanism by which RPH3A is recruited only to PM PtdIns4P rather than Golgi PtdIns4P remains unclear. By using ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (ARF6) small interfering RNA, ARF6 dominant-negative mutant ARF6(T27N), and ARF6 activation inhibitor SecinH3, we demonstrate that ARF6 plays an important role in the polarization of RPH3A, RAB21, and PIP5K1C90 in murine neutrophils. PM ARF6 is polarized and colocalized with RPH3A, RAB21, PIP5K1C90, and PM PtdIns4P in mouse and human neutrophils upon integrin stimulation. Additionally, ARF6 binds to RPH3A and enhances the interaction between the PM PtdIns4P and RPH3A. Consistent with functional roles of polarization of RPH3A, Rab21, and PIP5K1C90, ARF6 is also required for neutrophil adhesion on the inflamed endothelial layer. Our study reveals a previously unknown role of ARF6 in neutrophil polarization as being the coincidence-detection code with PM PtdIns4P. Cooperation of ARF6 and PM PtdIns4P direct RPH3A polarization, which is important for neutrophil firm adhesion to endothelia.

Abstract
The small GTase Arf6 has several important functions in intracellular vesicular trafficking and regulates the recycling of different types of cargo internalized via clathrin-dependent or -independent endocytosis. It activates the lipid modifying enzymes PIP 5-kinase and phospholipase D, promotes actin polymerization, and affects several functionally distinct processes in the cell. Arf6 is used for the phagocytosis of pathogens and can be directly or indirectly targeted by various pathogens to block phagocytosis or induce the uptake of intracellular pathogens. Arf6 is also used in the signaling of Toll-like receptors and in the activation of NADPH oxidases. In this review, we first give an overview of the different roles and mechanisms of action of Arf6 and then focus on its role in innate immunity and host–pathogen interactions.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Recent studies have underlined the effect of systemic inflammation on the pathophysiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Neutrophils are key components of early innate immunity and contribute to uncontrolled systemic inflammation if not tightly regulated. The aim of our study was to fully characterize human circulating neutrophils at different disease stages in AD. METHODS We analyzed neutrophil phenotypes and functions in 42 patients with AD (16 with mild cognitive impairment and 26 with dementia), and compared them to 22 age-matched healthy subjects. This study was performed directly in whole blood to avoid issues with data interpretation related to cell isolation procedures. RESULTS Blood samples from AD patients with dementia revealed neutrophil hyperactivation associated with increased reactive oxygen species production and increased levels of intravascular neutrophil extravascular traps. The homeostasis of circulating neutrophils in these patients also changed: The ratio between the harmful hyperreactive CXCR4high /CD62Llow senescent and the CD16bright /CD62Ldim immunosuppressive neutrophil subsets rose in the later stage of the disease. These abnormalities were greater in fast-decliner than in slow-decliner patients. INTERPRETATION Our results indicate that the inflammatory properties of circulating neutrophils shift as the percentage of aged neutrophils expands in patients with AD-changes that may play an instrumental role in establishing systemic chronic inflammation. Most important, our data strongly suggest that the neutrophil phenotype may be associated with the rate of cognitive decline and may thus constitute an innovative and prognostic blood biomarker in patients with AD.

Abstract
The treatment of human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells with ET-1 stimulates the activity of PLD and NADPH oxidase, but this stimulation is inhibited by pretreatment with bosentan (ET-1 receptor antagonist), FIPI (PLD inhibitor), apocynin (NADPH oxidase inhibitor), and EGCG and ECG (catechins having a galloyl group), but not EGC and EC (catechins devoid of a galloyl group). Herein, using molecular docking analyses based on our biochemical studies, we determined the probable mechanism by which the catechins containing a galloyl group inhibit the stimulation of PLD activity induced by ET-1. The ET-1-induced stimulation of PLD activity was inhibited by SecinH3 (inhibitor of cytohesin). Arf6 and cytohesin-1 are associated in the cell membrane, which is not inhibited by the catechins during ET-1 treatment of the cells. However, EGCG and ECG inhibited the binding of GTPγS with Arf6, even in the presence of cytohesin-1. The molecular docking analyses revealed that the catechins containing a galloyl group (EGCG and ECG) with cytohesin-1–Arf6GDP, but not the catechins without a galloyl group (EGC and EC), prevent GDP–GTP exchange in Arf6, which seems to be an important mechanism for inhibiting the activation of PLD induced by ET-1, and subsequently increases the activity of NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
Inflammation is a complex biological response that serves to protect the body's tissues following harmful stimuli such as infection, irritation or injury and initiates tissue repair. At the start of an inflammatory response, pro-inflammatory mediators induce changes in the endothelial lining of the blood vessels and in leukocytes. This results in increased vascular permeability and increased expression of adhesion proteins, and promotes adhesion of leukocytes, especially neutrophils to the endothelium. Adhesion is a prerequisite for neutrophil extravasation and chemoattractant-stimulated recruitment to inflammatory sites, where neutrophils phagocytose and kill microbes, release inflammatory mediators and cross-talk with other immune cells to co-ordinate the immune response in preparation for tissue repair. Many signalling proteins are critically involved in the complex signalling processes that underpin the inflammatory response and cross-talk between endothelium and leukocytes. As key regulators of cell-cell and cell-substratum adhesion, small GTPases (guanosine triphosphatases) act as important controls of neutrophil-endothelial cell interactions as well as neutrophil recruitment to sites of inflammation. Here, we summarise key processes that are dependent upon small GTPases in leukocytes during these early inflammatory events. We place a particular focus on the regulation of integrin-dependent events and their control by Rho and Rap family GTPases as well as their regulators during neutrophil adhesion, chemotaxis and recruitment.

Abstract
The tissue factor (TF) pathway serves both hemostasis and cell signaling, but how cells control these divergent functions of TF remains incompletely understood. TF is the receptor and scaffold of coagulation proteases cleaving protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) that plays pivotal roles in angiogenesis and tumor development. Here we demonstrate that coagulation factor VIIa (FVIIa) elicits TF cytoplasmic domain-dependent proangiogenic cell signaling independent of the alternative PAR2 activator matriptase. We identify a Lys-Gly-Glu (KGE) integrin-binding motif in the FVIIa protease domain that is required for association of the TF-FVIIa complex with the active conformer of integrin β1. A point mutation in this motif markedly reduces TF-FVIIa association with integrins, attenuates integrin translocation into early endosomes, and reduces delayed mitogen-activated protein kinase phosphorylation required for the induction of proangiogenic cytokines. Pharmacologic or genetic blockade of the small GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (arf6) that regulates integrin trafficking increases availability of TF-FVIIa with procoagulant activity on the cell surface, while inhibiting TF-FVIIa signaling that leads to proangiogenic cytokine expression and tumor cell migration. These experiments delineate the structural basis for the crosstalk of the TF-FVIIa complex with integrin trafficking and suggest a crucial role for endosomal PAR2 signaling in pathways of tissue repair and tumor biology.

Abstract
Treatment of human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs) with the thromboxane A2 receptor antagonist, SQ29548 inhibited U46619 stimulation of phospholipase D (PLD) and NADPH oxidase activities in the cell membrane. Pretreatment with apocynin inhibited U46619 induced increase in NADPH oxidase activity. The cell membrane contains predominantly PLD2 along with PLD1 isoforms of PLD. Pretreatment with pharmacological and genetic inhibitors of PLD2, but not PLD1, attenuated U46619 stimulation of NADPH oxidase activity. U46619 stimulation of PLD and NADPH oxidase activities were insensitive to BFA and Clostridium botulinum C3 toxin; however, pretreatment with secinH3 inhibited U46619 induced increase in PLD and NADPH oxidase activities suggesting a major role of cytohesin in U46619-induced increase in PLD and NADPH oxidase activities. Arf-1, Arf-6, cytohesin-1 and cytohesin-2 were observed in the cytosolic fraction, but only Arf-6 and cytohesin-1 were translocated to the cell membrane upon treatment with U46619. Coimmunoprecipitation study showed association of Arf-6 with cytohesin-1 in the cell membrane fraction. In vitro binding of GTPγS with Arf-6 required the presence of cytohesin-1 and that occurs in BFA insensitive manner. Overall, BFA insensitive Arf6-cytohesin1 signaling axis plays a pivotal role in U46619-mediated activation of PLD leading to stimulation of NADPH oxidase activity in HPASMCs.

Involvement of ADP ribosylation factor (Arf) in agonist-induced activation of PLD is known for smooth muscle cells of systemic arteries, but not in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Additionally, role of cytohesin in this scenario is unknown in PASMCs. We, therefore, determined the involvement of Arf and cytohesin in U46619-induced stimulation of PLD in PASMCs, and the probable mechanism by which curcumin, a natural phenolic compound, inhibits the U46619 response. Treatment of PASMCs with U46619 stimulated PLD activity in the cell membrane, which was inhibited upon pretreatment with SQ29548 (Tp receptor antagonist), FIPI (PLD inhibitor), SecinH3 (inhibitor of cytohesins), and curcumin. Transfection of the cells with Tp, Arf-6, and cytohesin-1 siRNA inhibited U46619-induced activation of PLD. Upon treatment of the cells with U46619, Arf-6 and cytohesin-1 were translocated and associated in the cell membrane, which were not inhibited upon pretreatment of the cells with curcumin. Cytohesin-1 appeared to be necessary for in vitro binding of GTPγS with Arf-6; however, addition of curcumin inhibited binding of GTPγS with Arf-6 even in the presence of cytohesin-1. Our computational study suggests that although curcumin to some extent binds with Tp receptor, yet the inhibition of Arf6GDP to Arf6GTP conversion appeared to be an important mechanism by which curcumin inhibits U46619-induced increase in PLD activity in PASMCs.

Abstract
EFA6D (guanine nucleotide exchange factor for ADP-ribosylation factor 6 [Arf6]D) is also known as EFA6R, Psd3, and HCA67. It is the fourth member of the EFA6 family with guanine nucleotide exchange activity for Arf6, a small guanosine triphosphatase (GTPase) that regulates endosomal trafficking and actin cytoskeleton remodeling. We propose a classification and nomenclature of 10 EFA6D variants deposited in the GenBank database as EFA6D1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1s, 2a, 2b, 2c, 2d, and 2s based on the combination of N-terminal and C-terminal insertions. Polymerase chain reaction analysis showed the expression of all EFA6D variants except for variants a and d in the adult mouse brain. Immunoblotting analysis with novel variant-specific antibodies showed the endogenous expression of EFA6D1b, EFA6D1c, and EFA6D1s at the protein level, with the highest expression being EFA6D1s, in the brain. Immunoblotting analysis of forebrain subcellular fractions showed the distinct subcellular distribution of EFA6D1b/c and EFA6D1s. The immunohistochemical analysis revealed distinct but overlapping immunoreactive patterns between EFA6D1b/c and EFA6D1s in the mouse brain. In immunoelectron microscopic analyses of the hippocampal CA3 region, EFA6D1b/c was present predominantly in the mossy fiber axons of dentate granule cells, whereas EFA6D1s was present abundantly in the cell bodies, dendritic shafts, and spines of hippocampal pyramidal cells. These results provide the first anatomical evidence suggesting the functional diversity of EFA6D variants, particularly EFA6D1b/c and EFA6D1s, in neurons. J. Comp.

Abstract
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) are key innate immune cells that represent the first line of defence against infection. They are the first leukocytes to migrate from the blood to injured or infected sites. This process involves molecular mechanisms that coordinate cell polarization, delivery of receptors, and activation of integrins at the leading edge of migrating PMNs. These phagocytes actively engulf microorganisms or form neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) to trap and kill pathogens with bactericidal compounds. Association of the NADPH oxidase complex at the phagosomal membrane for production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and delivery of proteolytic enzymes into the phagosome initiate pathogen killing and removal. G protein-dependent signalling pathways tightly control PMN functions. In this review, we will focus on the small monomeric GTPases of the Arf family and their guanine exchange factors (GEFs) and GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) as components of signalling cascades regulating PMN responses. GEFs and GAPs are multidomain proteins that control cellular events in time and space through interaction with other proteins and lipids inside the cells. The number of Arf GAPs identified in PMNs is expanding, and dissecting their functions will provide important insights into the role of these proteins in PMN physiology.

Abstract
The vascular endothelium responds to infection by destabilizing endothelial cell-cell junctions to allow fluid and cells to pass into peripheral tissues, facilitating clearance of infection and tissue repair. During sepsis, endotoxin and other proinflammatory molecules induce excessive vascular leak, which can cause organ dysfunction, shock, and death. Current therapies for sepsis are limited to antibiotics and supportive care, which are often insufficient to reduce morbidity and prevent mortality. Previous attempts at blocking inflammatory cytokine responses in humans proved ineffective at reducing the pathologies associated with sepsis, highlighting the need for a new therapeutic strategy. The small GTPase ARF6 is activated by a MyD88-ARNO interaction to induce vascular leak through disruption of endothelial adherens junctions. In this study, we show that the MyD88-ARNO-ARF6-signaling axis is responsible for LPS-induced endothelial permeability and is a destabilizing convergence point used by multiple inflammatory cues. We also show that blocking ARF6 with a peptide construct of its N terminus is sufficient to reduce vascular leak and enhance survival during endotoxic shock, without inhibiting the host cytokine response. Our data highlight the therapeutic potential of blocking ARF6 and reducing vascular leak for the treatment of inflammatory conditions, such as endotoxemia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent findings from our laboratory have demonstrated that glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) involves interplay between a variety of small G proteins belonging to the Rho (e.g., Cdc42 and Rac1) and ADP-ribosylation factor (e.g., Arf6) subfamilies. Using immunological, pharmacological and molecular biological approaches, we have also identified guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) for Rac1 (e.g., Tiam1) and Arf6 (e.g., ARNO) in clonal INS-1 832/13 cells, normal rat islets and human islets. As a logical extension to these studies, we investigated, herein, potential downstream signaling steps involved in Arf6/ARNO-mediated GSIS. METHODS Using a selective pharmacological inhibitor of ARNO/Arf6 signaling axis (e.g., secinH3) we assessed regulatory roles for Arf6/ARNO in promoting phospholipase D (PLD), phagocytic NADPH oxidase (Nox2), reactive oxygen species (ROS), extracellular-regulated kinases (ERK 1/2) and cofilin (actin-severing protein] signaling steps in clonal INS-1 832/13 cells. RESULTS Our data suggested a marked inhibition by secinH3 of glucose-induced PLD activation, ERK1/2 phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of cofilin, suggesting that Arf6/ ARNO signaling mediates PLD, ERK1/2 and cofilin activation in beta-cells. In addition, secinH3 blocked glucose-induced Nox2 activation and associated ROS generation, thus placing Nox downstream to Arf6/ARNO signaling step. Lastly, we also demonstrate a significantly higher cofilin phosphorylation (inactive) in islets derived from type 2 diabetic human donors as well as the Zucker Diabetic Fatty (ZDF) rat, a model for type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSION Together, our current findings identify signaling steps downstream to ARNO/Arf6 axis leading to insulin secretion.

Abstract
Small GTP-binding proteins of the ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) family control various cell functional responses including protein transport and recycling between different cellular compartments, phagocytosis, proliferation, cytoskeletal remodelling, and migration. The activity of Arfs is tightly regulated. GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) inactivate Arfs by stimulating GTP hydrolysis, and guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) stimulate the conversion of inactive GDP-bound Arf to the active GTP-bound conformation. There is increasing evidence that Arf small GTPases contribute to cancer growth and invasion. Increased expression of Arf6 and of Arf-GEPs, or deregulation Arf-GAP functions have been correlated with enhanced invasive capacity of tumor cells and metastasis. The spatiotemporal specificity of Arf activation is dictated by their GEFs that integrate various signals in stimulated cells. Brefeldin A (BFA), which inactivates a subset of Arf-GEFs, has been very useful for assessing the function of Golgi-localized Arfs. However, specific inhibitors to investigate the individual function of BFA-sensitive and insensitive Arf-GEFs are lacking. In recent years, specific screens have been developed, and new inhibitors with improved selectivity and potency to study cell functional responses regulated by BFA-sensitive and BFA-insensitive Arf pathways have been identified. These inhibitors have been instrumental for our understanding of the spatiotemporal activation of Arf proteins in cells and demonstrate the feasibility of developing small molecules interfering with Arf activation to prevent tumor invasion and metastasis.

Abstract
A homogeneous fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) system for the real-time monitoring of exchange factor-catalyzed activation of a ras-like small GTPase is described. The underlying design is based on supramolecular template effects exerted by protein-protein interactions between the GTPase adenosine diphosphate ribosylation factor (ARF) and its effector protein GGA3. The GTPase is activated when bound to guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and switched off in its guanosine diphosphate (GDP)-bound state. Both states are accompanied by severe conformational changes that are recognized by GGA3, which only binds the GTPase "on" state. GDP-to-GTP exchange, i.e., GTPase activation, is catalyzed by the guanine nucleotide exchange factor cytohesin-2. When GGA3 and the GTPase ARF1 are labeled with thoroughly selected FRET probes, with simultaneous recording of the fluorescence of an internal tryptophan residue in ARF1, the conformational changes during the activation of the GTPase can be monitored in real time. We applied the FRET system to a multiplex format that allows the simultaneous identification and distinction of small-molecule inhibitors that interfere with the cytohesin-catalyzed ARF1 activation and/or with the interaction between activated ARF1-GTP and GGA3. By screening a library of potential cytohesin inhibitors, predicted by in silico modeling, we identified new inhibitors for the cytohesin-catalyzed GDP/GTP exchange on ARF1 and verified their increased potency in a cell proliferation assay.

Abstract
Cytohesin-1 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for ADP ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) in human blood neutrophils and differentiated PLB-985 neutrophil-like cells. Cytohesin-1 regulates adhesion and the transendothelial migration of monocytes, dendritic cells and T lymphocytes through activation of the β2 integrin LFA-1. In this study we investigated the role of cytohesin-1 in neutrophil and neutrophil-like cell adhesion to HUVECs, immobilized ICAM-1, and the α4β1 and α5β1 integrin extracellular matrix ligand fibronectin. We show that cytohesin-1 knockdown or inhibition with secinH3 inhibits fMLF-mediated cell adhesion to HUVECs and immobilized ICAM-1, whereas cytohesin-1 over-expression has the opposing effect. Binding of PLB-985 cells to HUVECs correlated with expression of the high-affinity β2 integrin epitope recognized by mAb24. Adhesion to HUVECs was inhibited by soluble ICAM-1, anti-ICAM-1, anti-CD11a and anti-CD18, but not anti-CD11b, blocking antibodies. We also demonstrate that cytohesin-1 knockdown promotes fMLF-mediated cell adhesion to fibronectin whereas cytohesin-1 over-expression has the opposing effect. Crosstalk between β1 and β2 integrins also exists since inhibition of β1 integrin functions with blocking antibodies enhanced adhesion of PLB-985 over-expressing cytohesin-1 to ICAM-1. We suggest that cytohesin-1 is a key regulator of neutrophil adhesion to endothelial cells and to components of extracellular matrix, which may influence cell emigration through its dual opposing effect on β2 and β1 integrin activation.

Abstract
Neutrophils form a vital part of the innate immune response, but at the same time their inappropriate activation contributes to autoimmune diseases. Many molecular components are involved in fine-tuning neutrophil function. We report here the first characterization of the role of ARAP3, a PI3K and Rap-regulated GTPase-activating protein for RhoA and Arf6 in murine neutrophils. We show that neutrophils lacking ARAP3 are preactivated in vitro and in vivo, exhibiting increased β2 integrin affinity and avidity. ARAP3-deficient neutrophils are hyperresponsive in several adhesion-dependent situations in vitro, including the formation of reactive oxygen species, adhesion, spreading, and granule release. ARAP3-deficient cells adhere more firmly under flow conditions in vitro and to the vessel wall in vivo. Finally, loss of ARAP3 interferes with integrin-dependent neutrophil chemotaxis. The results of the present study suggest an important function of ARAP3 downstream of Rap. By modulating β2 integrin activity, ARAP3 guards neutrophils in their quiescent state unless activated.

Abstract
The nucleotide exchange factor cytohesin-1 was previously reported to interact with the cytoplasmic domains of the integrin β-chain common to all β(2) integrins such as LFA-1 and Mac-1. We show here that cytohesin-1, which contributes to fMLF-induced functional responses in PMNs through activation of Arf6, restrains the activation of the β(2) integrin Mac-1 (αMβ(2)) in PMNs or dcAMP-differentiated PLB-985 cells. We found that the cytohesin-1 inhibitor SecinH3 or siRNA increased cell adhesion to immobilized fibrinogen and fMLF-mediated conformational changes of Mac-1, monitored using mAb CBRM1/5, specific for the activation epitope of the αM subunit. In contrast, PLB-985 cells overexpressing cytohesin-1 showed little adhesion to fibrinogen. The use of SecinH3 and siRNA also revealed that interference with cytohesin-1 signaling also enhanced phagocytosis of zymosan particles and chemotaxis toward fMLF in transwell migration assays. These increments of phagocytosis and chemotaxis in cells treated with SecinH3 and cytohesin-1 siRNA were reversed by a blocking mAb to the integrin-αM subunit. We provide evidence for increased polymerized cortical actin in cells treated with SecinH3 and that altered signaling through cytohesin-1 increased cell surface expression of FPRL-1 and impairs the late calcium mobilization response elicited by fMLF. The data provide evidence that stimulation with fMLF initiates a signaling cascade that restrains Mac-1 activation in PMNs. Such crosstalk between FPRL-1 and Mac-1 involves cytohesin-1. We suggest that cytohesin-1 may coordinate activation of the β(2) integrins to regulate PMN adhesion, phagocytosis, and chemotaxis.

Abstract
A selective phospholipase D (PLD) inhibitor 5-fluoro-2-indolyl des-chlorohalopemide (FIPI) inhibited the O(2)(-) generation and cell migration but not degranulation in formyl-Met-Leu-Phe (fMLP)-stimulated rat neutrophils. A novel benzyl indazole compound 2-benzyl-3-(4-hydroxymethylphenyl)indazole (CHS-111), which inhibited O(2)(-) generation and cell migration, also reduced the fMLP- but not phorbol ester-stimulated PLD activity (IC(50) 3.9±1.2μM). CHS-111 inhibited the interaction of PLD1 with ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) 6 and Ras homology (Rho) A, and reduced the membrane recruitment of RhoA in fMLP-stimulated cells but not in GTPγS-stimulated cell-free system. CHS-111 reduced the cellular levels of GTP-bound RhoA, membrane recruitment of Rho-associated protein kinase 1 and the downstream myosin light chain 2 phosphorylation, and attenuated the interaction between phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) and Arf6, whereas it only slightly inhibited the guanine nucleotide exchange activity of human Dbs (DH/PH) protein and did not affect the arfaptin binding to Arf6. CHS-111 inhibited the interaction of RhoA with Vav, the membrane association and the phosphorylation of Vav. CHS-111 had no effect on the phosphorylation of Src family kinases (SFK) but attenuated the interaction of Vav with Lck, Hck, Fgr and Lyn. CHS-111 also inhibited the interaction of PLD1 with protein kinase C (PKC) α, βI and βII isoenzymes, and the phosphorylation of PLD1. These results indicate that inhibition of fMLP-stimulated PLD activity by CHS-111 is attributable to the blockade of RhoA activation via the interference with SFK-mediated Vav activation, attenuation of the interaction of Arf6 with PLD1 and PIP5K, and the activation of Ca(2+)-dependent PKC in rat neutrophils.
