Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP(3)), a primary output signal of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, plays a crucial role in diverse cellular processes. Evidence indicates that PIP(3) exerts downstream signaling, in part, by recruiting effector proteins to plasma membranes. Consequently, identification of signaling enzymes with PIP(3)-binding motifs represents a viable approach to understand the mechanism by which specificity of the PI 3-kinase-mediated signaling network is maintained. To address this issue, we have developed biotinylated derivatives of PIP(3) as affinity probes for the purification and characterization of PIP(3)-binding proteins. Considering the relaxed requirement for the acyl moiety in PIP(3) recognition, these biotinylated PIP(3) analogues display two structural features. First, they contain short acyl side chains (C(4) and C(8)), allowing them to be soluble in aqueous milieu. This desirable feature avoids the formation of lipid aggregates, which minimizes nonspecific hydrophobic interactions with proteins. Second, the appended biotin is located at the terminus of the sn-1 acyl side chain, thereby maintaining the integrity of the phosphoinositol head group essential for selective recognition. The utility of these affinity ligands is validated by the purification of recombinant PIP(3)-binding proteins, expressed as GST fusion proteins, to homogeneity from bacterial lysates. These include the C-terminal SH2 domain of the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase and the N-terminal PH domain of PLCgamma1. The efficiency of biotinylated PIP(3) analogues in the purification of these recombinant proteins was approximately 20% of that of glutathione beads Copyright 2000 Academic Press. 相似文献

Neutrophil priming by agents such as TNF-alpha and GM-CSF causes a dramatic increase in the response of these cells to secretagogue agonists and affects the capacity of neutrophils to induce tissue injury. In view of the central role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) in regulating NADPH oxidase activity we examined the influence of priming agents on agonist-stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) accumulation in human neutrophils. Pretreatment of neutrophils with TNF-alpha or GM-CSF, while not influencing fMLP-stimulated PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 accumulation at 5 s, caused a major increase in PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at later times (10-60 s), which paralleled the augmented superoxide anion (O2-) response. The intimate relationship between PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 accumulation and O2- release was confirmed using platelet-activating factor, which caused full but transient priming of both responses. Likewise, LY294002, a PI3-kinase inhibitor, and genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, caused parallel inhibition of O2- generation and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 accumulation; in contrast, radicicol, which inhibits receptor-mediated activation of p85 PI3-kinase, had no effect on either response. Despite major increases in PI3-kinase activity observed in p85 and anti-phosphotyrosine immunoprecipitates in growth factor-stimulated smooth muscle cells, no such increase was observed in primed/stimulated neutrophils. In contrast, both fMLP and TNF-alpha alone caused a 3-fold increase in PI3-kinase activity in p110gamma PI3-kinase immunoprecipitates. p21(ras) activation (an upstream regulator of PI3-kinase) was unaffected by priming. These data demonstrate that timing and magnitude of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 accumulation in neutrophils correlate closely with O2- generation, that PI3-kinase-gamma is responsible for the enhanced PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 production seen in primed cells, and that factors other than activation of p21(ras) underlie this response. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP3) plays an important role in the regulation of diverse physiological functions. Recent evidence indicates that PIP3 is cell permeant, and can be added exogenously to modulate cellular responses. However, like many other phospholipids, PIP3 binds serum proteins with high affinity, resulting in rapid deactivation of this lipid second messenger. Our study indicates that bovine serum albumin (BSA) at concentrations as low as 10 microg/mL abrogated the biological activity of dipalmitoyl-PIP3. This nonspecific interaction with serum proteins hampers the use of PIP3 in biological studies where serum is needed. We report here an ether-linked PIP3 analogue, 1-O-(1-O-hexadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoryl)-myo-inositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (C16Me-PIP3). which displays low serum protein-binding affinity while retaining the biological function of PIP3. The affinity of C16Me-PIP3 with BSA was two orders of magnitude lower than that of its dipalmitoyl-counterpart. Biochemical data indicate that C16Me-PIP3 was able to stimulate Ca2+ influx in T cells in the presence of moderate levels (up to 1 mg/mL) of BSA. Thus. C16Me-PIP3 may provide a useful tool to study the physiological function of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase in vivo. 相似文献

Evidence for direct activation of mTORC2 kinase activity by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate
mTORC2 (mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2) plays important roles in signal transduction by regulating an array of downstream effectors, including protein kinase AKT. However, its regulation by upstream regulators remains poorly characterized. Although phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) is known to regulate the phosphorylation of AKT Ser(473), the hydrophobic motif (HM) site, by mTORC2, it is not clear whether PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) can directly regulate mTORC2 kinase activity. Here, we used two membrane-docked AKT mutant proteins, one with and the other without the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, as substrates for mTORC2 to dissect the roles of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) in AKT HM phosphorylation in cultured cells and in vitro kinase assays. In HEK293T cells, insulin and constitutively active mutants of small GTPase H-Ras and PI3K could induce HM phosphorylation of both AKT mutants, which was blocked by the PI3K inhibitor LY294002. Importantly, PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) was able to stimulate the phosphorylation of both AKT mutants by immunoprecipitated mTOR2 complexes in an in vitro kinase assay. In both in vivo and in vitro assays, the AKT mutant containing the PH domain appeared to be a better substrate than the one without the PH domain. Therefore, these results suggest that PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) can regulate HM phosphorylation by mTORC2 via multiple mechanisms. One of the mechanisms is to directly stimulate the kinase activity of mTORC2. 相似文献

P-Rex1 is a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the small GTPase Rac. We have investigated here the mechanisms of stimulation of P-Rex1 Rac-GEF activity by the lipid second messenger phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) and the Gbetagamma subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins. We show that a P-Rex1 mutant lacking the PH domain (DeltaPH) cannot be stimulated by PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, which implies that the PH domain confers PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 regulation of P-Rex1 Rac-GEF activity. Consistent with this, we found that PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 binds to the PH domain of P-Rex1 and that the DH/PH domain tandem is sufficient for PtdIns(3,4,5)P3-stimulated P-Rex1 activity. The Rac-GEF activities of the DeltaPH mutant and the DH/PH domain tandem can both be stimulated by Gbetagamma subunits, which infers that Gbetagamma subunits regulate P-Rex1 activity by binding to the catalytic DH domain. Deletion of the DEP, PDZ, or inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase homology domains has no major consequences on the abilities of either PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 or Gbetagamma subunits to stimulate P-Rex1 Rac-GEF activity. However, the presence of any of these domains impacts on the levels of basal and/or stimulated P-Rex1 Rac-GEF activity, suggesting that there are important functional interactions between the DH/PH domain tandem and the DEP, PDZ, and inositol polyphosphate 4-phosphatase homology domains of P-Rex1. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2] and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P3] are phosphoinositides (PIs) present in small amounts in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane (PM) lipid bilayer of host target cells. They are thought to modulate the activity of proteins involved in enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) infection. However, the role of PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3 in EPEC pathogenesis remains obscure. Here we show that EPEC induces a transient PI(4,5)P2 accumulation at bacterial infection sites. Simultaneous actin accumulation, likely involved in the construction of the actin-rich pedestal, is also observed at these sites. Acute PI(4,5)P2 depletion partially diminishes EPEC adherence to the cell surface and actin pedestal formation. These findings are consistent with a bimodal role, whereby PI(4,5)P2 contributes to EPEC association with the cell surface and to the maximal induction of actin pedestals. Finally, we show that EPEC induces PI(3,4,5)P3 clustering at bacterial infection sites, in a translocated intimin receptor (Tir)-dependent manner. Tir phosphorylated on tyrosine 454, but not on tyrosine 474, forms complexes with an active phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), suggesting that PI3K recruited by Tir prompts the production of PI(3,4,5)P3 beneath EPEC attachment sites. The functional significance of this event may be related to the ability of EPEC to modulate cell death and innate immunity. 相似文献

Generation of a phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PI(3,4,5)P(3)] gradient within the plasma membrane is important for cell polarization and chemotaxis in many eukaryotic cells. The gradient is produced by the combined activity of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) to increase PI(3,4,5)P(3) on the membrane nearest the polarizing signal and PI(3,4,5)P(3) dephosphorylation by phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) elsewhere. Common to both of these enzymes is the lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)], which is not only the substrate of PI3K and product of PTEN but also important for membrane binding of PTEN. Consequently, regulation of phospholipase C (PLC) activity, which hydrolyzes PI(4,5)P(2), could have important consequences for PI(3,4,5)P(3) localization. We investigate the role of PLC in PI(3,4,5)P(3)-mediated chemotaxis in Dictyostelium. plc-null cells are resistant to the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 and produce little PI(3,4,5)P(3) after cAMP stimulation, as monitored by the PI(3,4,5)P(3)-specific pleckstrin homology (PH)-domain of CRAC (PH(CRAC)GFP). In contrast, PLC overexpression elevates PI(3,4,5)P(3) and impairs chemotaxis in a similar way to loss of pten. PI3K localization at the leading edge of plc-null cells is unaltered, but dissociation of PTEN from the membrane is strongly reduced in both gradient and uniform stimulation with cAMP. These results indicate that local activation of PLC can control PTEN localization and suggest a novel mechanism to regulate the internal PI(3,4,5)P(3) gradient. 相似文献

Tensin2 reduces intracellular phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate levels at the plasma membrane
Sassan Hafizi Anna Gustafsson Cecilia Oslakovic Anders Tengholm Bruno O. Villoutreix 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2010,399(3):396-1844
Tensins are proposed cytoskeleton-regulating proteins. However, Tensin2 additionally inhibits Akt signalling and cell survival. Structural modelling of the Tensin2 phosphatase (PTPase) domain revealed an active site-like pocket receptive towards phosphoinositides. Tensin2-expressing HEK293 cells displayed negligible levels of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) under confocal microscopy. However, mock-transfected cells, and Tensin2 cells harbouring a putative phosphatase-inactivating mutation, exhibited significant PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 levels, which decreased upon phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibition with LY294002. In contrast, wtTensin3, mock and mutant cells were identical in membrane PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and Akt phosphorylation. In vitro lipid PTPase activity was however undetectable in isolated recombinant PTPase domains of both Tensins, indicating a possible loss of structural stability when expressed in isolation. In summary, we provide evidence that Tensin2, in addition to regulating cytoskeletal dynamics, influences phosphoinositide-Akt signalling through its PTPase domain. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)] is a key second messenger found ubiquitously in higher eukaryotic cells. The activation of Class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases and the subsequent production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) is an important cell signaling event that has been causally linked to the activation of a variety of downstream cellular processes, such as cell migration and proliferation. Although numerous proteins regulating a variety of biological pathways have been shown to bind PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), there are no data to demonstrate multiple mechanisms for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis in vivo. RESULTS: In this study, we demonstrate an alternative pathway for the in vivo production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) mediated by the action of murine Type Ialpha phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (Type Ialpha PIPkinase), an enzyme best characterized as regulating cellular PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels. Analysis of this novel pathway of PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis in cellular membranes leads us to conclude that in vivo, Type Ialpha PIPkinase also acts as a PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase. We demonstrate for the first time that cells actually contain an endogenous PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase, and that during oxidative stress, this enzyme is responsible for PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) synthesis. Furthermore, we demonstrate that by upregulating the H(2)O(2)-induced PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) levels using overexpression studies, the endogenous PtdIns(3,4)P(2) 5-kinase is likely to be Type Ialpha PIPkinase. CONCLUSIONS: We describe for the first time a novel in vivo activity for Type Ialpha PIPkinase, and a novel pathway for the in vivo synthesis of functional PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), a key lipid second messenger regulating a number of diverse cellular processes. 相似文献

The phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P(2)) is accepted to be a direct modulator of ion channel activity. The products of phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase (PI3K), PtdIns(3,4)P(2) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)), in contrast, are not. We report here activation of the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC) reconstituted in Chinese hamster ovary cells by PI3K. Insulin-like growth factor-I also activated reconstituted ENaC and increased Na(+) reabsorption across renal A6 epithelial cell monolayers via PI3K. Neither IGF-I nor PI3K affected the levels of ENaC in the plasma membrane. The effects of PI3K and IGF-I on ENaC activity paralleled changes in the plasma membrane levels of the PI3K product phospholipids, PtdIns(3,4)P(2)/PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), as measured by evanescent field fluorescence microscopy. Both PtdIns(3,4)P(2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) activated ENaC in excised patches. Activation of ENaC by PI3K and its phospholipid products corresponded to changes in channel open probability. We conclude that PI3K directly modulates ENaC activity via PtdIns(3,4)P(2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3). This represents a novel transduction pathway whereby growth factors, such as IGF-I, rapidly modulate target proteins independent of signaling elicited by kinases downstream of PI3K. 相似文献

The influence of anionic lipids on SHIP2 phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate 5-phosphatase activity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The SH2 domain containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) catalyzes the dephosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) to phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2) and participates in the insulin signalling pathway in vivo. In a comparative study of SHIP2 and the phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN), we found that their lipid phosphatase activity was influenced by the presence of vesicles of phosphatidylserine (PtdSer). SHIP2 PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity was greatly stimulated in the presence of vesicles of PtdSer. This effect appears to be specific for di-C8 and di-C16 fatty acids of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 as substrate. It was not observed with inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (Ins(1,3,4,5)P4) another in vitro substrate of SHIP2, nor with Type I Ins(1,4,5)P3/Ins(1,3,4,5)P4 5-phosphatase activity, an enzyme which acts on soluble inositol phosphates. Vesicles of phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) stimulated only twofold PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity of SHIP2. Both a minimal catalytic construct and the full length SHIP2 were sensitive to the stimulation by PtdSer. In contrast, PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 5-phosphatase activity of the Skeletal muscle and Kidney enriched Inositol Phosphatase (SKIP), another member of the mammaliam Type II phosphoinositide 5-phosphatases, was not sensitive to PtdSer. Our enzymatic data establish a specificity in the control of SHIP2 lipid phosphatase activity with PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 as substrate which is depending on the fatty acid composition of the substrate. 相似文献

Membrane phospholipids, such as phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P(3)), are signaling molecules that can directly modulate the activity of ion channels, including the epithelial Na(+) channel (ENaC). Whereas PI(3,4,5)P(3) directly activates ENaC, its binding site within the channel has not been identified. We identify here a region of gamma-mENaC just following the second trans-membrane domain (residues 569-583) important to PI(3,4,5)P(3) binding and regulation. Deletion of this track decreases activity of ENaC heterologously expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. K-Ras and its first effector phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase (PI3-K), as well as RhoA and its effector phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase increase ENaC activity. Whereas the former, via generation of PI(3,4,5)P(3), increases ENaC open probability, the latter increases activity by increasing membrane levels of the channel. Deletion of the region just distal to the second trans-membrane domain disrupted regulation by K-Ras and PI3-K but not RhoA and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase. Moreover, PI(3,4,5)P(3) binds ENaC with deletion of the region following the second transmembrane domain disrupting this interaction and disrupting direct activation of the channel by PI(3,4,5)P(3). Mutation analysis revealed the importance of conserved positive and negative charged residues as well as bulky amino acids within this region to modulation of ENaC by PI3-K. The current results identify the region just distal to the second trans-membrane domain within gamma-mENaC as being part of a functional PI(3,4,5)P(3) binding site that directly impacts ENaC activity. Phospholipid binding to this site is probably mediated by the positively charged amino acids within this track, with negatively charged and bulky residues also influencing specificity of interactions. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases [PtdIns4P5Ks] synthesise the majority of cellular phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P(2)] and phospholipase D1 (PLD1) synthesises large amounts of phosphatidic acid (PtdOH). The activities of PtdIns4P5Ks and PLDs are thought to be coupled during cell signalling in order to support large simultaneous increases in both PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdOH, since PtdOH activates PtdIns4P5Ks and PLD1 requires PtdIns(4,5)P(2) as a cofactor. However, little is known about the control of such a system. Membrane recruitment of ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) activates both PtdIns4P5Ks and PLDs, but it is not known if each enzyme is controlled in series by different Arfs or in parallel by a single form. We show through pull-down and vesicle sedimentation interaction assays that PtdIns4P5K activation may be facilitated by Arf-enhanced membrane association. However PtdIns4P5Ks discriminate poorly between near homogeneously myristoylated Arf1 and Arf6 although examples of all three known active isoforms (mouse alpha>beta, gamma) respond to these G-proteins. Conversely PLD1 genuinely prefers Arf1 and so the two lipid metabolising enzymes are differentially controlled. We propose that isoform selective Arf/PLD interaction and not Arf/PtdIns4P5K will be the critical trigger in the formation of distinct, optimal triples of Arf/PLDs/PtdIns4P5Ks and be the principle regulator of any coupled increases in the signalling lipids PtdIns(4,5)P(2) and PtdOH. 相似文献

Phosphoinositide 30H-kinase (PI3K) activities are thought to be critical regulatory enzymes in a new intracellular signalling pathway, the activation of which results in the rapid accumulation of a putative signalling molecule, phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5) P3]. To date, activation of PI3K has always correlated with its recruitment into complexes containing protein tyrosine kinases (PTK). Here we report that agonists which utilize G-protein mediated transduction pathways can stimulate very rapid and large accumulations of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 via a novel mechanism, possibly involving direct coupling between the G-protein and a PI3K activity. In addition, some of these agonists also stimulate small increases in PI3K activity in anti-phosphotyrosine and anti-src-type PTK antibody directed immunoprecipitates, indicating activation of PI3K via a 'conventional' PTK mediated mechanism; these pathways however, play only a minor role in the initial, agonist sensitive production of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 in myeloid derived cells. 相似文献

The small GTP-binding protein Rap1B is activated in human platelets upon stimulation of a G(i)-dependent signaling pathway. In this work, we found that inhibition of platelet adenylyl cyclase by dideoxyadenosine or SQ22536 did not cause activation of Rap1B and did not restore Rap1B activation in platelets stimulated by cross-linking of Fcgamma receptor IIA (FcgammaRIIA) in the presence of ADP scavengers. Moreover, elevation of the intracellular cAMP concentration did not impair the G(i)-dependent activation of Rap1B. Two unrelated inhibitors of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), wortmannin and LY294002, totally prevented Rap1B activation in platelets stimulated by cross-linking of FcgammaRIIA, by stimulation of the P2Y(12) receptor for ADP, or by epinephrine. However, in platelets from PI3Kgamma-deficient mice, both ADP and epinephrine were still able to normally stimulate Rap1B activation through a PI3K-dependent mechanism, suggesting the involvement of a different isoform of the enzyme. Moreover, the lack of PI3Kgamma did not prevent the ability of epinephrine to potentiate platelet aggregation through a G(i)-dependent pathway. The inhibitory effect of wortmannin on Rap1B activation was overcome by addition of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)), but not PtdIns(3,4)P(2), although both lipids were found to support phosphorylation of Akt. Moreover, PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) was able to relieve the inhibitory effect of apyrase on FcgammaRIIA-mediated platelet aggregation. We conclude that stimulation of a G(i)-dependent signaling pathway causes activation of the small GTPase Rap1B through the action of the PI3K product PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), but not PtdIns(3,4)P(2), and that this process may contribute to potentiation of platelet aggregation. 相似文献

Synthesis of D-3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides and its correlation with protein-tyrosine phosphorylation were examined using human platelets. Thrombin stimulation of platelets resulted in time- and dose-dependent production of phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2), which is absent from resting platelets. In contrast, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) was detected in resting platelets, but remained unaffected by thrombin treatment. The production of PtdIns(3,4)P2 but not PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 was inhibited by pretreatment with staurosporine or dibutyryl cyclic adenosine monophosphate (dbcAMP). Protein-tyrosine phosphorylation, which is reportedly involved in generation of 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides, was elicited in thrombin-activated platelets. The tyrosine phosphorylation was suppressed by pretreatment with staurosporine or dbcAMP. These observations suggest that synthesis of PtdIns(3,4)P2 but not PtdIns(3,4,5) P3 is closely correlated with protein-tyrosine phosphorylation in human platelets. 相似文献

Although substantial studies have begun to explore the regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt cascade by different signalling pathways, whether protein kinase C (PKC) activity plays a crucial role remains as yet unclear. In this study, we found that in A549 and HEK293 cells non-selective PKC inhibitors Ro 31-8220 and bisindolylmaleimide VIII, and PKCbeta inhibitor LY 379196, caused Akt/PKB phosphorylation at Ser 473 and increased the upstream activator, integrin-linked kinase (ILK) activity. The increased Akt phosphorylation was blocked by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin and the newly identified PIP(3)-dependent kinases (PDK) inhibitor SB 203580. In contrast to the Akt stimulation caused by PKC inhibitors, PMA attenuated Akt/PKB phosphorylation. We also found that this stimulating effect on Akt phosphorylation by PKC inhibitors was not the result of phosphatase inhibition, since treatment with PP2A, PP2B and tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors (okadaic acid, FK506 and sodium orthovanadate, respectively) had no effect. We conclude that phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt signalling pathway is regulated by PKC in a negative manner. 相似文献

E-cadherin plays a powerful tumor suppressor role. Germline E-cadherin mutations justify 30% of Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer (HDGC) and missense mutations are found in 30% of these families. We found possible to restore in vitro mutant E-cadherin associated to HDGC syndrome by using Chemical Chaperones (CCs). Herein, our aim was to disclose the molecular mechanisms underlying the CCs effects in E-cadherin regulation. Using cells stably expressing WT E-cadherin or two HDGC-associated missense mutations, we show that upon DMSO treatment, not only mutant E-cadherin is restored and stabilized at the plasma membrane (PM), but also Arf6 and PIPKIγ expressions are altered. We show that modulation of Arf6 expression partially mimics the effect of CCs, suggesting that the cellular effects observed upon CCs treatment are mediated by Arf6. Further, we show that E-cadherin expression recovery is specifically linked to Arf6 due to its role on endocytosis and recycling pathways. Finally, we demonstrated that, as DMSO, several others CCs are able to modulate the trafficking machinery through an Arf6 dependent mechanism. Interestingly, the more effective compounds in E-cadherin recovery to PM are those that simultaneously inhibit Arf6 and stimulate PIPKIγ expression and binding to E-cadherin. Here, we present the first evidence of a direct influence of CCs in cellular trafficking machinery and we show that this effect is of crucial importance in the context of juxtamembrane E-cadherin missense mutations associated to HDGC. We propose that this influence should be taken into account when exploring the therapeutic potential of this type of chemicals in genetic diseases associated to protein-misfolding. 相似文献
