磷脂酰肌醇4,5二磷酸对TRP家族离子通道的调节作用研究进展

磷脂酰肌醇4,5二磷酸(PIP2)是细胞膜中的一种磷脂类信号分子,其在细胞膜中的含量处于动态变化之中.PIP2可以被PLC(phospholipase C)分解为IP3(inositol trisphosphate)和DAG(diacylglycerol),这两者作为信号分子又可以与胞内或细胞膜上的许多蛋白质发生相互作用.最近研究发现很多种离子通道被认为和PIP2之间存在着相互作用,TRP(transient receptor potential)家族就是其中一类.有一些TRP通道需要PIP2来行使功能,而PIP2对另外一些TRP通道却起抑制作用.Ca2+经由激活的TRP通道进入细胞后反过来又可以影响到细胞膜上的PIP2水平.本文着重回顾PIP2和TRP家族的离子通道之间的研究进展情况.     

兔脑中磷脂酰肌醇-4,5-二磷酸的分离纯化

多磷酸肌醇磷脂(polyphospholnositides,PPI)包括磷脂酰肌醇-4-磷酸(phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate,PIP)和磷脂酰肌醇-4,5-二磷酸(phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis-phosphate,PIP_2)。近年来发现它们在细胞跨膜信号传递中起重要作用。为了深入了解其代谢及生理作用,有必要把它们分离纯化。前人报道过几种纯化方法,但操作复杂。目前国外仅几家公司生产,价格昂贵;国内仍无生产,也未见类似报道。本文主要报告一种分离纯化兔脑中PIP_2的新方法及用硅胶板薄层层析法(TLC)分离鉴定兔脑中PIP和PIP_2。     

磷脂酰肌醇 -3 激酶不直接调控PC12 细胞的分泌

磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶(PI3K)是磷脂酰肌醇代谢过程中一种重要的酶,通过其代谢产物参与了对多种细胞生理活动的调节,如囊泡运输、细胞骨架重组、细胞存活、吞噬作用、细胞凋亡等.为研究其对细胞分泌功能的作用,使用磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶家族的特异性抑制剂渥曼青霉素(wortmannin)阻断磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶的活性,以EGFP-2xFYVE融合蛋白与磷脂酰肌醇-3-磷酸(PtdIns-3-P)的结合为指征,使用荧光显微成像技术检测渥曼青霉素对磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶的抑制作用,采用膜片钳膜电容测量方法及光解钙离子释放技术检测渥曼青霉素对PC12细胞分泌功能的影响.实验结果表明,wortmannin阻断了磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶的活性,抑制了磷脂酰肌醇-3-磷酸(PtdIns-3-P)的产生,并使FYVE与PtdIns-3-P解离,但渥曼青霉素处理之前和处理30 min后的PC12细胞分泌反应的幅度、动力学特性和分泌的钙依赖性均无显著差异,表明磷脂酰肌醇-3激酶对PC12细胞的分泌无显著的直接影响.     

GRK2 在细胞迁移中的调控作用

细胞迁移是免疫应答、损伤修复等正常生理功能的基础,也和癌细胞侵袭、转移等病理现象有关。G蛋白偶联受体激酶(GRKs)是一大类能够磷酸化G蛋白偶联受体(GPCRs)的激酶,共有7种亚型(GRK1~7),其中GRK2是体内分布最广、被研究最多的亚型。近年来的研究发现GRK2能够与多种蛋白底物相互作用,在细胞迁移活动中起到重要的调控作用。本篇综述将对GRK2调控细胞迁移的研究结果进行归纳梳理,为将来进一步的机制研究提供参考。

细胞运动、细胞迁移与细胞骨架研究进展

细胞定向运动与细胞骨架的动态循环密切相关。运动细胞在其伪足前沿依靠细胞骨架的不断聚合推动细胞膜的前进,在基部靠近细胞体部位通过细胞骨架的不断解聚收缩拖拉细胞体向前运动,细胞骨架的聚合与解聚通过伪足与支撑表面的吸附与解吸附而偶连。肌动蛋白组成的微丝骨架是大多数运动细胞的主要成分。外界刺激引起微丝细胞骨架动态变化的信号通路已逐步明了。线虫精子细胞的运动行为与阿米巴变形运动相似,但是在线虫精子细胞中没有肌动蛋白,而是以精子主要蛋白为基础形成细胞骨架驱动精子细胞的运动。与肌动蛋白不同,精子主要蛋白没有分子极性、ATP结合位点和马达蛋白。通过比较研究以上两种运动体系将有助于在分子水平上进一步阐明细胞运动的机理。

Regulation of Insulin Secretion by Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-Bisphosphate

The role of PIP₂ in pancreatic beta cell function was examined here using the beta cell line MIN6B1. Blocking PIP₂ with PH-PLC-GFP or PIP5KIγ RNAi did not impact on glucose-stimulated secretion although susceptibility to apoptosis was increased. Over-expression of PIP5KIγ improved cell survival and inhibited secretion with accumulation of endocytic vacuoles containing F-actin, PIP₂, transferrin receptor, caveolin 1, Arf6 and the insulin granule membrane protein phogrin but not insulin. Expression of constitutively active Arf6 Q67L also resulted in vacuole formation and inhibition of secretion, which was reversed by PH-PLC-GFP co-expression. PIP₂ co-localized with gelsolin and F-actin, and gelsolin co-expression partially reversed the secretory defect of PIP5KIγ-over-expressing cells. RhoA/ROCK inhibition increased actin depolymerization and secretion, which was prevented by over-expressing PIP5KIγ, while blocking PIP₂ reduced constitutively active RhoA V14-induced F-actin polymerization. In conclusion, although PIP₂ plays a pro-survival role in MIN6B1 cells, excessive PIP₂ production because of PIP5KIγ over-expression inhibits secretion because of both a defective Arf6/PIP5KIγ-dependent endocytic recycling of secretory membrane and secretory membrane components such as phogrin and the RhoA/ROCK/PIP5KIγ-dependent perturbation of F-actin cytoskeleton remodelling.     

Trafficking and Cell Migration

The migration of single cells and epithelial sheets is of great importance for gastrulation and organ formation in developing embryos and, if misregulated, can have dire consequences e.g. during cancer metastasis. A keystone of cell migration is the regulation of adhesive contacts, which are dynamically assembled and disassembled via endocytosis. Here, we discuss some of the basic concepts about the function of endocytic trafficking during cell migration: transport of integrins from the cell rear to the leading edge in fibroblasts; confinement of signalling to the front of single cells by endocytic transport of growth factors; regulation of movement coherence in multicellular sheets by cadherin turnover; and shaping of extracellular chemokine gradients. Taken together, endocytosis enables migrating cells and tissues to dynamically modulate their adhesion and signalling, allowing them to efficiently migrate through their extracellular environment.     

微流控与细胞迁移技术的研究进展

细胞迁移在多种生理、病理过程中扮演着重要角色。在细胞迁移研究中,琼脂糖平板法、transwell小室法等因操作简单、重现性好被广泛运用于细胞迁移的体外建模。但传统方法大多是检测单因素条件下的细胞迁移情况,却忽略了血流这一重要因素对细胞迁移的影响。微流控芯片的出现不仅解决了上述难题,并能保证迁移试验在多参数条件下一步到位的完成并及进行实时观测。因此,微流控芯片将带来一场细胞迁移技术及相关领域的革命。对近10年微流控技术在细胞迁移研究中运用进行了总结。     

EphB/ephrinB Signaling in Cell Adhesion and Migration

Eph receptors and their ligands, ephrins, represent the largest group of the receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) family, and they mediate numerous developmental processes in a variety of organisms. Ephrins are membrane-bound proteins that are mainly divided into two classes: A class ephrins, which are linked to the membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linkage, and B class ephrins, which are transmembrane ligands. Based on their domain structures and affinities for ligand binding, the Eph receptors are also divided into two groups. Trans-dimerization of Eph receptors with their membrane-tethered ligands regulates cell-cell interactions and initiates bidirectional signaling pathways. These pathways are intimately involved in regulating cytoskeleton dynamics, cell migration, and alterations in cellular dynamics and shapes. The EphBs and ephrinBs are specifically localized and modified to promote higher-order clustering and initiate of bidirectional signaling. In this review, we present an in-depth overview of the structure, mechanisms, cell signaling, and functions of EphB/ephrinB in cell adhesion and migration.     

癌细胞运动与迁移的分子机制

癌细胞运动和迁移的分子机制远较我们想象的复杂,癌细胞的运动和迁移性和接触性刺激相应答的细胞膜突起形成所启动的多步骤过程的结果.人们普遍想相信,片状伪足在驱动癌细胞迁移中起着主要作用,它通过附着在基底膜上而产生拉动细胞体向前的力量.近来的研究证明,切丝蛋白是癌细胞运动和迁移的一个重要调节因子, 切丝蛋白的局部激活可以诱导片状伪足的形成,并设定细胞运动方向.此外,成束蛋白.Arp2/3复合物、Cdc42、LIM激酶和黏着斑激酶常常协同调节癌细胞的运动和迁移.虽然调节癌细胞运动和迁移的信号通路和分子机制尚未完全阐明,但现有的资料清楚地表明,抑制癌细胞的迁移性将可能成为抑制恶性肿瘤生长和扩散的一个有用的策略.     

Discrete Domains Within the Hyaluronan Receptor CD44 Regulate Membrane Localization and Cell Migration

CD44 is the principle transmembrane receptor for the extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan, hyaluronan. This receptor: ligand interaction is required for many normal cellular processes including lymphocyte homing into inflammatory sites, assembly of a pericellular matrix during chondrogenesis, wound healing and tissue morphogenesis during development. In order to mediate these diverse events, CD44 expressing cells must be able to regulate, and respond to, interactions with hyaluronan. The mechanisms responsible have been subject to scrutiny over the past few years as it has become clear that their disruption can underlie the progression of both metastatic tumours and chronic inflammatory diseases. Here we describe recent data identifying discrete regions within the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of CD44 which regulate this important adhesion receptor.

Contribution of Cadherins to Directional Cell Migration and Histogenesis in Xenopus Embryos

Perturbation of adhesion mediated by cadherins was achieved by over-expressing truncated forms of E- and EP-cadherins (in which the extracellular domain was deleted) in different blastomeres of stage 6 Xenopus laevis embryos. Injections of mRNA encoding truncated E- and EP-cadherins into A1A2 blastomeres resulted in inhibition of cell adhesion and, at later stages, in morphogenetic defects in the anterior neural tissues to which they mainly contribute. In addition, truncated EP-cadherin mRNA produced a duplication of the dorso-posterior axis in a significant number of cases. The expression of truncated E- and EP-cadherins in blastomeres involved in gastrulation and neural induction (B1B2 and C1), led to the duplication of the dorso-posterior axis as well as to defects in anterior structures. Morphogenetic defects obtained with truncated EP-cadherin were more severe than those induced with truncated E-cadherin. Cells derived from blastomeres injected with truncated EP-cadherin mRNA, dispersed more readily at the blastula and gastrula stages than the cells derived from the blastomeres expressing truncated E-cadherin. Presumptive mesodermal cells expressing truncated cadherins did not engage in coherent directional migration. The alteration of cadherin-mediated cell adhesion led directly to the perturbation of the convergent-extension movements during gastrulation as shown in the animal cap assays and indirectly to perturbation of neural induction. Although the cytoplasmic domains of type I cadherins share a high degree of sequence identity, the over-expression of their cytoplasmic domains induces a distinct pattern of perturbations, strongly suggesting that in vivo, each cadherin may transduce a specific adhesive signal. These graded perturbations may in part result from the relative ability of each cadherin cytoplasmic domain to titer the P-catenin.
