The vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) of the gastric pathogen Helicobacter pylori binds and enters epithelial cells, ultimately resulting in cellular vacuolation. Several host factors have been reported to be important for VacA function, but none of these have been demonstrated to be essential for toxin binding to the plasma membrane. Thus, the identity of cell surface receptors critical for both toxin binding and function has remained elusive. Here, we identify VacA as the first bacterial virulence factor that exploits the important plasma membrane sphingolipid, sphingomyelin (SM), as a cellular receptor. Depletion of plasma membrane SM with sphingomyelinase inhibited VacA-mediated vacuolation and significantly reduced the sensitivity of HeLa cells, as well as several other cell lines, to VacA. Further analysis revealed that SM is critical for VacA interactions with the plasma membrane. Restoring plasma membrane SM in cells previously depleted of SM was sufficient to rescue both toxin vacuolation activity and plasma membrane binding. VacA association with detergent-resistant membranes was inhibited in cells pretreated with SMase C, indicating the importance of SM for VacA association with lipid raft microdomains. Finally, VacA bound to SM in an in vitro ELISA assay in a manner competitively inhibited by lysenin, a known SM-binding protein. Our results suggest a model where VacA may exploit the capacity of SM to preferentially partition into lipid rafts in order to access the raft-associated cellular machinery previously shown to be required for toxin entry into host cells. 相似文献

The vacuolating cytotoxin VacA is a major virulence factor of Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium responsible for gastroduodenal ulcers and cancer. VacA associates with lipid rafts, is endocytosed, and reaches the late endocytic compartment where it induces vacuolation. We have investigated the endocytic and intracellular trafficking pathways used by VacA, in HeLa and gastric AGS cells. We report here that VacA was first bound to plasma-membrane domains localized above F-actin structures that were controlled by the Rac1 GTPase. VacA was subsequently pinocytosed by a clathrin-independent mechanism into cell peripheral early endocytic compartments lacking caveolin 1, the Rab5 effector early endosomes antigen-1 (EEA1) and transferrin. These compartments took up fluid-phase (as evidenced by the accumulation of fluorescent dextran) and glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-APs). VacA pinocytosis was controlled by Cdc42 and did not require cellular tyrosine kinases, dynamin 2, ADP-ribosylating factor 6, or RhoA GTPase activities. VacA was subsequently routed to EEA1-sorting endosomes and then sorted to late endosomes. During all these different endocytic steps, VacA was continuously associated with detergent resistant membrane domains. From these results we propose that VacA might be a valuable probe to study raft-associated molecules, pinocytosed by a clathrin-independent mechanism, and routed to the degradative compartment. 相似文献

Membrane microdomains enriched in cholesterol, sphingolipids (rafts), and specific proteins are involved in important physiological functions. However their structure, size and stability are still controversial. Given that detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs) are in the liquid-ordered state and are rich in raft-like components, they might correspond to rafts at least to some extent. Here we monitor the lateral order of biological membranes by characterizing DRMs from erythrocytes obtained with Brij-98, Brij-58, and TX-100 at 4?°C and 37?°C. All DRMs were enriched in cholesterol and contained the raft markers flotillin-2 and stomatin. However, sphingomyelin (SM) was only found to be enriched in TX-100-DRMs – a detergent that preferentially solubilizes the membrane inner leaflet – while Band 3 was present solely in Brij-DRMs. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra showed that the acyl chain packing of Brij-DRMs was lower than TX-100-DRMs, providing evidence of their diverse lipid composition. Fatty acid analysis revealed that the SM fraction of the DRMs was enriched in lignoceric acid, which should specifically contribute to the resistance of SM to detergents. These results indicate that lipids from the outer leaflet, particularly SM, are essential for the formation of the liquid-ordered phase of DRMs. At last, the differential solubilization process induced by Brij-98 and TX-100 was monitored using giant unilamellar vesicles. This study suggests that Brij and TX-100-DRMs reflect different degrees of lateral order of the membrane microdomains. Additionally, Brij DRMs are composed by both inner and outer leaflet components, making them more physiologically relevant than TX-100-DRMs to the studies of membrane rafts. 相似文献

Clostridium perfringens alpha-toxin induces the hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes by activating the metabolism of sphingomyelin (SM) via a GTP binding protein in membranes. alpha-Toxin stimulated the formation of 15-N-nervonoyl sphingosine (C24:1-ceramide), which was identified by positive ion fast atom bombardment-MS and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. C24:1-ceramide stimulated the toxin-induced hemolysis of saponin-pretreated sheep erythrocytes and increased the production of sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) in the cells, but N-lignoceroyl sphingosine did not. These events elicited by the toxin in the presence of C24:1-ceramide were significantly attenuated by treatment with dihydrosphingosine, a sphingosine kinase inhibitor. TLC showed that the level of C24:1-ceramide was highest among the ceramides with an unsaturated bond in the fatty acyl chain in the detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs). The toxin specifically bound to DRMs rich in cholesterol, resulting in the hydrolysis of N-nervonoic sphingomyelin (C24:1-SM) in DRMs. Treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (PT) inhibited the alpha-toxin-induced formation of C24:1-ceramide from C24:1-SM in DRMs and hemolysis, indicating that endogenous sphingomyelinase, which hydrolyzes C24:1-SM to C24:1-ceramide, is controlled by PT-sensitive GTP binding protein in membranes. These results show that the toxin-induced metabolism of C24:1-SM to S1P in DRMs plays an important role in the toxin-induced hemolysis of sheep erythrocytes. 相似文献

Gastric infection by Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is associated with development of gastritis, ulcerations and gastric adenocarcinoma. Production and secretion of the vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) is an essential Hp virulence factor. VacA is a multifunctional toxin, which exerts immunosuppressive effects on human T lymphocytes via inhibition of cell proliferation and Interleukin-2 (IL-2) signalling. This latter effect of VacA is dependent on the β2-integrin subunit CD18, acting as a receptor for intracellular uptake of VacA. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of endocytosis of VacA into primary human T lymphocytes. A screen with chemical inhibitors for different sets of kinases identified Ser/Thr kinases of the protein kinase C (PKC) family as crucial. Specific inhibitory peptides blocking PKCη or PKCζ-phosphorylating activity, but not PKCα/β specific peptides, resulted in a strong reduction or complete block of VacA uptake. Thus the phosphorylating activity of PKCη and PKCζ is essential for the induction of VacA endocytosis. Furthermore, mimicking of a possible PKC-mediated threonine (T(758)) phosphorylation of the CD18 cytoplasmic tail in resting primary T cells induced VacA endocytosis via activation of the small GTPases Cdc42 and Rac-1. We conclude that VacA is endocytosed into primary T cells via a clathrin-independent pathway. 相似文献

We used multiple approaches to investigate the coordination of trans and medial Rab proteins in the regulation of intra‐Golgi retrograde trafficking. We reasoned that medially located Rab33b might act downstream of the trans Golgi Rab, Rab6, in regulating intra‐Golgi retrograde trafficking. We found that knockdown of Rab33b, like Rab6, suppressed conserved oligomeric Golgi (COG) complex‐ or Zeste White 10 (ZW10)‐depletion induced disruption of the Golgi ribbon in HeLa cells. Moreover, efficient GTP‐restricted Rab6 induced relocation of Golgi enzymes to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) was Rab33b‐dependent, but not vice versa, suggesting that the two Rabs act sequentially in an intra‐Golgi Rab cascade. In support of this hypothesis, we found that overexpression of GTP‐Rab33b induced the dissociation of Rab6 from Golgi membranes in vivo. In addition, the transport of Shiga‐like toxin B fragment (SLTB) from the trans to cis Golgi and ER required Rab33b. Surprisingly, depletion of Rab33b had little, if any, immediate effect on cell growth and multiplication. Furthermore, anterograde trafficking of tsO45G protein through the Golgi apparatus was normal. We suggest that the Rab33b/Rab6 regulated intra‐Golgi retrograde trafficking pathway must coexist with other Golgi trafficking pathways. In conclusion, we provide the first evidence that Rab33b and Rab6 act to coordinate a major intra‐Golgi retrograde trafficking pathway. This coordination may have parallels with Rab conversion/cascade events that regulate endosome, phagosome and exocytic processes. 相似文献

Helicobacter pylori vacuolating toxin (VacA) is a secreted toxin that is reported to produce multiple effects on mammalian cells. In this study, we explored the relationship between VacA-induced cellular vacuolation and VacA-induced cytochrome c release from mitochondria. Within intoxicated cells, vacuolation precedes cytochrome c release and occurs at lower VacA concentrations, indicating that cellular vacuolation is not a downstream consequence of cytochrome c release. Conversely, bafilomycin A1 blocks VacA-induced vacuolation but not VacA-induced cytochrome c release, which indicates that cytochrome c release is not a downstream consequence of cellular vacuolation. Acid activation of purified VacA is required for entry of VacA into cells, and correspondingly, acid activation of the toxin is required for both vacuolation and cytochrome c release, which suggests that VacA must enter cells to produce these two effects. Single amino acid substitutions (P9A and G14A) that ablate vacuolating activity and membrane channel-forming activity render VacA unable to induce cytochrome c release. Channel blockers known to inhibit cellular vacuolation and VacA membrane channel activity also inhibit cytochrome c release. These data indicate that cellular vacuolation and mitochondrial cytochrome c release are two independent outcomes of VacA intoxication and that both effects are dependent on the formation of anion-selective membrane channels. 相似文献

The ceramide (Cer) and sphingomyelin (SM) species of cultured differentiated rat cerebellar granule cells and human fibroblasts were characterized by electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry. We identified 35 different species of Cer and 18 species of SM in human fibroblasts, and 35 different species of Cer and 9 species of SM were characterized in rat neurons. The main Cer species of rat cerebellar granule cells contained d18:1 sphingosine linked with palmitic, stearic, or nervonic fatty acid, and the two main SM species were d18:1,16:0 and d18:1,18:0. Both sphingolipids were enriched in detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs; or lipid rafts), and significant differences were found in the sphingolipid patterns of DRMs and of detergent-soluble fractions (DSF) from these cells. In human fibroblasts, the main Cer species were d18:1,16:0, d18:2,16:0, d18:1,24:0, d18:2,24:0, d18:1,24:1, and d18:2,24:1; the most represented species of SM were d18:1,16:0, d18:1,24:0, and d18:1,24:1. In these cells, SM was highly enriched in DRMs and Cer was mainly associated with DSF, and the species found in DRMs were markedly different from those found in DSF. 相似文献

We show that in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, an apical ceramide-enriched compartment (ACEC) at the base of primary cilia is colocalized with Rab11a. Ceramide and Rab11a vesicles isolated by magnetic sorting contain a highly similar profile of proteins (atypical protein kinase C [aPKC], Cdc42, Sec8, Rab11a, and Rab8) and ceramide species, suggesting the presence of a ciliogenic protein complex associated with ceramide at the ACEC. It is intriguing that C16 and C18 ceramide, although less abundant ceramide species in MDCK cells, are highly enriched in ceramide and Rab11a vesicles. Expression of a ceramide-binding but dominant-negative mutant of aPKC suppresses ciliogenesis, indicating that the association of ceramide with aPKC is critical for the formation of this complex. Our results indicate that ciliogenic ceramide is derived from apical sphingomyelin (SM) that is endocytosed and then converted to the ACEC. Consistently, inhibition of acid sphingomyelinase with imipramine disrupts ACEC formation, association of ciliogenic proteins with Rab11a vesicles, and cilium formation. Ciliogenesis is rescued by the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A, indicating that ceramide promotes tubulin acetylation in cilia. Taken together, our results suggest that the ACEC is a novel compartment in which SM-derived ceramide induces formation of a ciliogenic lipid-protein complex that sustains primary cilia by preventing deacetylation of microtubules. 相似文献

Junin arenavirus (JUNV) entry is dependent on clathrin-mediated pathways and it relies on the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton as well as the dynamics of microtubules. To determine the method of entry used by this human pathogen, we have demonstrated that in Vero cells JUNV is trafficked via the cellular dynamin 2 (dyn2) endocytic pathway and it is dependent on the Eps15 GTPase. In addition, we have shown that the virus travels through Rab5-mediated early and Rab7-mediated late endosomes in its pH-dependent entry. Altogether, this study gives further inside into the endocytic pathway utilized by the arenavirus JUNV 相似文献

The Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) intoxicates mammalian cells resulting in reduction of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (Delta Psi m reduction) and cytochrome c release, two events consistent with the modulation of mitochondrial membrane permeability. We now demonstrate that the entry of VacA into cells and the capacity of VacA to form anion-selective channels are both essential for Delta Psi m reduction and cytochrome c release. Subsequent to cell entry, a substantial fraction of VacA localizes to the mitochondria. Neither Delta Psi m reduction nor cytochrome c release within VacA-intoxicated cells requires cellular caspase activity. Moreover, VacA cellular activity is not sensitive to cyclosporin A, suggesting that VacA does not induce the mitochondrial permeability transition as a mechanism for Delta Psi m reduction and cytochrome c release. Time-course and dose-response studies indicate that Delta Psi m reduction occurs substantially before and at lower concentrations of VacA than cytochrome c release. Collectively, these results support a model that VacA enters mammalian cells, localizes to the mitochondria, and modulates mitochondrial membrane permeability by a mechanism dependent on toxin channel activity ultimately resulting in cytochrome c release. This model represents a novel mechanism for regulation of a mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis pathway by a bacterial toxin. 相似文献

The molecular mechanisms underlying cytoskeleton‐dependent Golgi positioning are poorly understood. In mammalian cells, the Golgi apparatus is localized near the juxtanuclear centrosome via dynein‐mediated motility along microtubules. Previous studies implicate Cdc42 in regulating dynein‐dependent motility. Here we show that reduced expression of the Cdc42‐specific GTPase‐activating protein, ARHGAP21, inhibits the ability of dispersed Golgi membranes to reposition at the centrosome following nocodazole treatment and washout. Cdc42 regulation of Golgi positioning appears to involve ARF1 and a binding interaction with the vesicle‐coat protein coatomer. We tested whether Cdc42 directly affects motility, as opposed to the formation of a trafficking intermediate, using a Golgi capture and motility assay in permeabilized cells. Disrupting Cdc42 activation or the coatomer/Cdc42 binding interaction stimulated Golgi motility. The coatomer/Cdc42‐sensitive motility was blocked by the addition of an inhibitory dynein antibody. Together, our results reveal that dynein and microtubule‐dependent Golgi positioning is regulated by ARF1‐, coatomer‐, and ARHGAP21‐dependent Cdc42 signaling. 相似文献

RhoGTPases regulate actin‐based signaling cascades and cellular contacts. In neurogenesis, their action modulates cell migration, neuritogenesis, and synaptogenesis. Murine P19 embryonal stem cells differentiate to neurons upon aggregation in the presence of retinoic acid, and we previously showed that RhoA and Cdc42 RhoGTPases are sequentially up‐regulated during neuroinduction, suggesting a role at this very early developmental stage. In this work, incubation of differentiating P19 cells with C3 toxin resulted in decreased aggregate cohesion and cadherin protein level. In contrast, C3 effects were not observed in cells overexpressing recombinant dominant active RhoA. On the other hand, C3 did not affect cadherin in uninduced cells and their postmitotic neuronal derivatives, respectively expressing E‐ and N‐cadherin. RhoA is thus influential on cell aggregation and cadherin expression during a sensitive time window that corresponds to the switch of E‐ to N‐cadherin. Cell treatment with Y27632 inhibitor of Rho‐associated‐kinase ROCK, or advanced overexpression of Cdc42 by gene transfer of a constitutively active form of the protein reproduced C3 effects. RhoA‐antisense RNA also reduced cadherin level and the size of cell aggregates, and increased the generation of fibroblast‐like cells relative to neurons following neuroinduction. Colchicin, a microtubule disrupter, but not cytochalasin B actin poison, importantly decreased cadherin in neurodifferentiating cells. Overall, our results indicate that the RhoA/ROCK pathway regulates cadherin protein level and cell‐cell interactions during neurodetermination, with an impact on the efficiency of the process. The effect on cadherin seems to involve microtubules. The importance of correct timing of RhoA and Cdc42 functional expression in neurogenesis is also raised. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Niemann-Pick disease type C (NPC) is a genetic disorder in which patient cells have endosomal/lysosomal accumulation of cholesterol and sphingolipids. However, the relationship between sphingolipids and cholesterol accumulation in NPC cells has not been established. Here, we investigated the role of sphingomyelin (SM) on the accumulation of cholesterol in NPC cells. Reduction of SM by inhibition of the ceramide transfer protein CERT decreased the cholesterol accumulation in NPC cells. The accumulation of SM in NPC cells inhibited the transport of cholesterol to the endoplasmic reticulum. Overexpression of Rab9 in NPC cells reduced the cholesterol accumulation, which was recovered by treatment with SM. In NPC cells that overexpressed a Rab9 constitutively active mutant, SM treatment did not lead to the cholesterol accumulation. These results indicate that SM negatively regulates the Rab9-dependent vesicular trafficking of cholesterol, and a reduction in SM levels in NPC cells recovers the Rab9-dependent vesicular trafficking defect. 相似文献

The dynamic structure of detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs) isolated from RBL-2H3 cells was characterized using two different acyl chain spin-labeled phospholipids (5PC and 16PC), a headgroup labeled sphingomyelin (SM) analog (SD-Tempo) and a spin-labeled cholestane (CSL). It was shown, by comparison to dispersions of SM, dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), and DPPC/cholesterol of molar ratio 1, that DRM contains a substantial amount of liquid ordered phase: 1) The rotational diffusion rates (R( perpendicular)) of 16PC in DRM between -5 degrees C and 45 degrees C are nearly the same as those in molar ratio DPPC/Chol = 1 dispersions, and they are substantially greater than R( perpendicular) in pure DPPC dispersions in the gel phase studied above 20 degrees C; 2) The order parameters (S) of 16PC in DRM at temperatures above 4 degrees C are comparable to those in DPPC/Chol = 1 dispersions, but are greater than those in DPPC dispersions in both the gel and liquid crystalline phases. 3) Similarly, R( perpendicular) for 5PC and CSL in DRM is greater than in pure SM dispersions in the gel phase, and S for these labels in DRM is greater than in the SM dispersions in both the gel and liquid crystalline phases. 4) R( perpendicular) of SD-Tempo in DRM is greater than in dispersions of SM in both gel and liquid phases, consistent with the liquid-like mobility in the acyl chain region in DRM. However, S of SD-Tempo in DRM is substantially less than that of this spin label in SM in gel and liquid crystalline phases (in absolute values), indicating that the headgroup region in DRMs is less ordered than in pure SM. These results support the hypothesis that plasma membranes contain DRM domains with a liquid ordered phase that may coexist with a liquid crystalline phase. There also appears to be a coexisting region in DRMs in which the chain labels 16PC and 5PC are found to cluster. We suggest that other biological membranes containing high concentrations of cholesterol also contain a liquid ordered phase. 相似文献

Acid activation of Helicobacter pylori vacuolating cytotoxin (VacA) results in toxin internalization by eukaryotic cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Helicobacter pylori VacA is a secreted toxin that induces multiple structural and functional alterations in eukaryotic cells. Exposure of VacA to either acidic or alkaline pH ('activation') results in structural changes in the protein and a marked enhancement of its cell-vacuolating activity. However, the mechanism by which activation leads to increased cytotoxicity is not well understood. In this study, we analysed the binding and internalization of [125I]-VacA by HeLa cells. We detected no difference in the binding of untreated and activated [125I]-VacA to cells. Binding of acid-activated [125I]-VacA to cells at 4 degrees C was not saturable, and was only partially inhibited by excess unlabelled toxin. These results suggest that VacA binds either non-specifically or to an abundant, low-affinity receptor on HeLa cells. To study internalization of VacA, we used a protease protection assay. Analysis by SDS-PAGE and autoradiography indicated that the intact 87 kDa toxin was internalized in a time-dependent process at 37 degrees C but not at 4 degrees C. Furthermore, internalization of the intact toxin was detected only if VacA was acid or alkaline activated before being added to cells. The internalization of activated [125I]-VacA was not substantially inhibited by the presence of excess unlabelled toxin, but was blocked if cells were depleted of cellular ATP by the addition of sodium azide and 2-deoxy-D-glucose. These results indicate that acid or alkaline pH-induced structural changes in VacA are required for VacA entry into cells, and that internalization of the intact 87 kDa toxin is required for VacA cytotoxicity. 相似文献

Integrin trafficking plays an important role in cellular motility and cytokinesis. Integrins undergo constant endo/exocytic shuttling to facilitate the dynamic regulation of cell adhesion. Integrin activity toward the components of the extracellular matrix is regulated by the ability of these receptors to switch between active and inactive conformations. Several cellular signalling pathways have been described in the regulation of integrin traffic under different conditions. However, the interrelationship between integrin activity conformations and their endocytic fate have remained incompletely understood. Here, we have investigated the endocytic trafficking of active and inactive β1 integrins in cancer cells. Both conformers are endocytosed in a clathrin‐ and dynamin‐dependent manner. The net endocytosis rate of the active β1 integrins is higher, whereas endocytosis of the inactive β1 integrin is counteracted by rapid recycling back to the plasma membrane via an ARF 6‐ and early endosome antigen 1‐positive compartment in an Rab 4a‐ and actin‐dependent manner. Owing to these distinct trafficking routes, the two receptor pools display divergent subcellular localization. At steady state, the inactive β1 integrin is mainly on the plasma membrane, whereas the active receptor is predominantly intracellular. These data provide new insights into the endocytic traffic of integrins and imply the possibility of a previously unappreciated crosstalk between pathways regulating integrin activity and traffic. 相似文献

Membrane blebbing‐dependent (blebby) amoeboid migration can be employed by lymphoid and cancer cells to invade 3D‐environments. Here, we reveal a mechanism by which the small GTPase RhoB controls membrane blebbing and blebby amoeboid migration. Interestingly, while all three Rho isoforms (RhoA, RhoB and RhoC) regulated amoeboid migration, each controlled motility in a distinct manner. In particular, RhoB depletion blocked membrane blebbing in ALL (acute lymphoblastic leukaemia), melanoma and lung cancer cells as well as ALL cell amoeboid migration in 3D‐collagen, while RhoB overexpression enhanced blebbing and 3D‐collagen migration in a manner dependent on its plasma membrane localization and down‐stream effectors ROCK and Myosin II. RhoB localization was controlled by endosomal trafficking, being internalized via Rab5 vesicles and then trafficked either to late endosomes/lysosomes or to Rab11‐positive recycling endosomes, as regulated by KIF13A. Importantly, KIF13A depletion not only inhibited RhoB plasma membrane localization, but also cell membrane blebbing and 3D‐migration of ALL cells. In conclusion, KIF13A‐mediated endosomal trafficking modulates RhoB plasma membrane localization to control membrane blebbing and blebby amoeboid migration. 相似文献

Polarized trafficking of E-cadherin is regulated by Rac1 and Cdc42 in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

E-cadherin is a major cell-cell adhesion protein of epithelia that is trafficked to the basolateral cell surface in a polarized fashion. The exact post-Golgi route and regulation of E-cadherin transport have not been fully described. The Rho GTPases Cdc42 and Rac1 have been implicated in many cell functions, including the exocytic trafficking of other proteins in polarized epithelial cells. These Rho family proteins are also associated with the cadherin-catenin complexes at the cell surface. We have used functional mutants of Rac1 and Cdc42 and inactivating toxins to demonstrate specific roles for both Cdc42 and Rac1 in the post-Golgi transport of E-cadherin. Dominant-negative mutants of Cdc42 and Rac1 accumulate E-cadherin at a distinct post-Golgi step. This accumulation occurs before p120ctn interacts with E-cadherin, because p120ctn localization was not affected by the Cdc42 or Rac1 mutants. Moreover, the GTPase mutants had no effect on the trafficking of a targeting mutant of E-cadherin, consistent with the selective involvement of Cdc42 and Rac1 in basolateral trafficking. These results provide a new example of Rho GTPase regulation of basolateral trafficking and demonstrate novel roles for Cdc42 and Rac1 in the post-Golgi transport of E-cadherin.

To expand our knowledge of Helicobacter pylori virulence mechanisms, we used iTRAQ (isobaric tagging reagents for relative and absolute quantification)-based proteomic analysis to investigate the effect of H. pylori on gastric AGS tissue culture cells. In particular, we were interested in finding out which effects of H. pylori were dependent on the cytotoxins CagA and VacA. Protein analysis was restricted to detergent-resistant membranes (DRMs), because both toxins were described previously to localize in lipid raft-like domains. Using H. pylori wild type and two isogenic mutants, DeltacagA and DeltavacA, we identified a total of 21 proteins that were either increased or decreased in the DRMs due to bacterial infection. The effect on three of these proteins, ezrin, syndecan-4 and Rab11-FIP1, were furthermore dependent on CagA. Because these proteins have been implicated in cell migration, adhesion and polarity, they might act as important mediators of CagA cytotoxicity. 相似文献
