More than fifteen years after the first identification of a class II isoform of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) in Drosophila melanoǵaster this subfamily remains the most enigmatic among all PI3Ks. What are the functions of these enzymes? What are their mechanisms of activation? Which downstream effectors are specifically regulated by these isoforms? Are class I and class II PI3Ks redundant or do they control different intracellular processes? And, more important, do class II PI3Ks have a role in human diseases? The recent increased interest on class II PI3Ks has started providing some answers to these questions but still a lot needs to be done to completely uncover the contribution of these enzymes to physiological processes and possibly to pathological conditions. Here we will summarise the recent findings on the alpha isoform of mammalian class II PI3Ks (PI3K-C2α ) and we will discuss the potential involvement of this enzyme in human diseases. 相似文献

A series of new thienopyrimidine derivatives has been discovered as potent PI3K inhibitors. The systematic SAR studies for these analogues are described. Among them, 8a and 9a exhibit nanomolar enzymatic potencies and sub-micromolar cellular anti-proliferative activities. 8a displays favorable pharmacokinetic profiles, while 9a easily undergoes deacetylation to yield a major metabolite 8a. Furthermore, 8a and 9a potently inhibit tumor growth in a dose-dependent manner in the NCI-H460 xenograft model with an acceptable safety profile. 相似文献

Phosphoinositides function as fundamental signaling molecules and play roles in diverse cellular processes. Certain types of viruses may employ host cell phosphoinositide signaling systems to facilitate their replication cycles. Here we demonstrate that the β isoform of class II PI3K (PI3K-C2β) plays an indispensable role in hepatitis C virus (HCV) propagation in human hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Knockdown of PI3K-C2β abrogated HCV propagation in the cell. Using an HCV replicon system, we found that knockdown of PI3K-C2β substantially repressed the full-genome replication, while showing relatively small reductions in sub-genome replication, in which structural proteins including core protein were deleted. We also found that HCV core protein showed the binding activity towards D4-phosphorylated phosphoinositides and overlapped localization with phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate in the cell. These results suggest that the phosphoinositide generated by PI3K-C2β plays an indispensable role in the HCV replication cycle through the binding to HCV core protein. 相似文献

Cytokine growth factors regulate the proliferation of hematopoietic cells through activation of several distinct signaling pathways. We have assessed the contribution of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways to erythropoietin (Epo) and interleukin (IL)-3-induced proliferation of factor-dependent hematopoietic cells. Lack of cytokine-induced PI3K activation caused by receptor mutation or treatment with a specific inhibitor (LY294002) did not prevent proliferation but resulted in an increase in the G1 phase content and doubling time of cell cultures. The reduced proliferation of cells lacking cytokine-induced PI3K activity could be partially restored by overexpressing constitutively active Akt. Inhibition of PI3K activity decreased the proportion of cytokine-treated cells entering S phase and was associated with a significant reduction in cytokine-induced phosphorylation and activation of Cdk2. By contrast, Cdk4 activity and p27(Kip1) expression were not significantly altered by inhibition of PI3K. Together, these observations identify a mechanism through which cytokine-activated PI3K contributes to G1 to S phase progression in factor-dependent hematopoietic cells by enhancing the phosphorylation and activation of Cdk2. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that flavonoids inhibit glucose uptake in cultured cells. In this report, we show that the grapefruit flavanone naringenin inhibited insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in 3T3-L1 adipocytes in a dose-dependent manner. Naringenin acts by inhibiting the activity of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), a key regulator of insulin-induced GLUT4 translocation. Although naringenin did not alter the phosphotyrosine status of the insulin receptor, insulin receptor substrate proteins, or PI3K, it did inhibit the phosphorylation of the downstream signaling molecule Akt. In an in vitro kinase assay, naringenin inhibited PI3K activity. A physiologically attainable dose of 6 microM naringenin reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by approximately 20%. This inhibitory effect remained 24h after the removal of naringenin from the culture medium. Collectively, our findings suggest that the regular consumption of naringenin in grapefruit may exacerbate insulin resistance in susceptible individuals via impaired glucose uptake in adipose tissue. 相似文献

Background
Upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, activation of both the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways serves to balance proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses. Although the antagonist to TLR4 represents an emerging promising target for the treatment of sepsis; however, the role of the PI3K pathway under TLR4-null conditions is not well understood. This goal of this study was to investigate the effect of inhibition of PI3K on innate resistance to LPS toxicity in a murine model.Results
The overall survival of the cohorts receiving intraperitoneal injections of 100, 500, or 1000 μg LPS from Escherichia coli serotype 026:B6 after 7 d was 100%, 10%, and 10%, respectively. In contrast, no mortality was noted after 500-μg LPS injection in Tlr4-/- mice. When the PI3K inhibitor was injected (1 mg/25 g body weight) 1 h prior to the administration of LPS, the overall survival of the Tlr4-/- mice was 30%. In the Tlr4-/- mice, the LPS injection induced no NF-κB activation but an increased Akt phosphorylation in the lung and liver, when compared to that of the C57BL/6 mice. Injection of 500 μg LPS led to a significant induction in O2- detected by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin trapping spectroscopy in the lung and liver at 3 and 6 h in C57BL/6 but not Tlr4-/- mice. Addition of LY294002 only significantly increased the O2- level in the lung and liver of the Tlr4-/- mice but not in the C57BL/6 mice following 500-μg LPS injection. In addition, the serum IL-1β and IL-2 levels were more elevated in C57BL/6 mice than in Tlr4-/- mice. Notably, IL-1β and IL-2 were significantly increased in Tlr4-/- mice but not in the C57BL/6 mice when the PI3K pathway was inhibited by LY294002 prior to LPS injection. LY294002Conclusions
In this study, we demonstrate that innate resistance to LPS toxicity in Tlr4-/- mice is impaired by inhibition of the PI3K pathway, with a corresponding increase in mortality and production of tissue O2- and inflammatory cytokines. 相似文献8.
Angiotensin II (Ang II) works as a paracrine or autocrine cytokine agent to regulate renal functions and promotes podocytes dysfunction directly or indirectly, causing proteinuria. The glomerular slit diaphragm (SD) serves as a size-selective barrier and is linked to the actin-based cytoskeleton by adaptor proteins, including CD2-associated protein (CD2AP). Therefore, damages to CD2AP affect not only the function of the SD, but also directly disrupt the podocyte cytoskeleton, leading to proteinuria. In addition, CD2AP can facilitate the nephrin-induced phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K)/Akt signaling, which protects podocytes from apoptosis. Here we found that CD2AP staining was located diffusely but predominantly in the peripheral cytoplasm and CD2AP co-localized with nephrin in mouse podocytes; however, Ang II decreased CD2AP staining diffusely and induced a separation from concentrated nephrin. Ang II notably reduced CD2AP expression in time- and concentration-dependent manners, and this was significantly recovered by losartan. Ang II induced podocyte apoptosis in time- and concentration-dependent manners in TUNEL and FACS assays. LY294002, a PI3-K inhibitor, further reduced CD2AP expression and increased podocyte apoptosis, which was augmented by siRNA for CD2AP. Thus, Ang II induces the relocalization and reduction of CD2AP via AT1R, which would cause podocyte apoptosis by the suppression of CD2AP/PI3-K signaling. 相似文献

Cancer cells depend on chemotaxis for invasion and frequently overexpress and/or activate Src. We previously reported that v-Src accelerates motility by promoting phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-K) signalling but abrogates chemotaxis. We here addressed the mechanism of the loss of chemotactic response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) gradients in fibroblasts harbouring a thermosensitive v-Src kinase. At non-permissive temperature, PDGF receptor (PDGFR) signalling, assessed by phosphoY(751)-specific antibodies (a docking site for PI3-K), was not detected without PDGF and showed a concentration-dependent PDGF response. Both immunolabeling of PI3-K (p110) and live cell imaging of its product (phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 tris-phosphate) showed PI3-K recruitment and activation at lamellipodia polarized towards a PDGF gradient. Centrosomes and PDGFR- and Src-bearing endosomes were also oriented towards this gradient. Upon v-Src thermoactivation, (i) Y(751) phosphorylation was moderately induced without PDGF and synergistically increased with PDGF; (ii) PI3-K was recruited and activated all along the plasma membrane without PDGF and did not polarize in response to a PDGF gradient; and (iii) polarization of centrosomes and of PDGFR-bearing endosomes were also abrogated. Thus, PDGF can further increase PDGFR auto-phosphorylation despite strong Src kinase activity, but diffuse downstream activation of PI3-K by Src abrogates cell polarization and chemotaxis: "signalling requires silence". 相似文献

Class-I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) are dual specificity enzymes that possess both lipid and protein kinase activity. While the best characterized property of this protein kinase is as an autokinase activity, there have also been reports it can phosphorylate exogenous substrates including peptides, IRS-1 and PDE-3B. The identification of two novel potential protein substrates of PI 3-kinase is described here. By employing in vitro kinase assays using recombinant proteins as the substrates, it is shown that the translational regulator 4EBP1 becomes phosphorylated by the p110alpha and p110gamma isoforms of class-I PI 3-kinases. The lipid kinase activity of both these isoforms is increased by allosteric binding of H-Ras or betagamma subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins, but we find this is not the case for the protein kinase activity. Surprisingly though, a site on H-Ras is phosphorylated by p110alpha and p110gamma. This raises the possibility that these proteins could serve as physiological substrates for the protein kinase activity of PI 3-kinase and suggests this activity operates in a physiological context by phosphorylating substrates other than the PI 3-kinase itself. This may be particularly important in regulating the interaction of Ras with PI 3-kinase. 相似文献

Little is known about the physiological role and mechanism of activation of class II phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks), although it has been shown that the PI3K-C2alpha isoform is activated by insulin. Using chimaeric receptor constructs which can be activated independently of endogenous receptors in transfected cells, we found that PI3K-C2alpha activity was stimulated to a greater extent by insulin receptors than IGF receptors in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Activation of PI3K-C2alpha required an intact NPEY motif in the receptor juxtamembrane domain. We conclude that PI3K-C2alpha is a candidate for participation in insulin-specific intracellular signalling. 相似文献

Flt3 ligand (FL) is a potent hematopoietic cytokine that affects the growth and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitor and stem cells both in vivo and in vitro. Pichia pastoris transformants secreting high-level rhFL were obtained using 'yeastern blotting' method and the expression level in liquid was about 30 mg/L. rhFL was purified to about 95% purity with overnight dialysis, filtration and an anion-exchange step. Further purification steps employing Sephacryl S-200 and reverse-phase HPLC raised the purity to over 99%. The purified rhFL possessed correct N-terminal amino acid sequence and positive Western blotting bands. SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry analysis showed molecular weight of rhFL was about 21 and 34 kDa, suggesting that rhFL was glycosylated. The result of capillary electrophoresis showed that its pI is 3.12-4.72. Endo H deglycosylation analysis indicated that there was O-glycosylation besides N-glycosylation in rhFL secreted from P. pastoris. Bioactivity assay showed that the purified rhFL had dose-dependent expansion activity on bone marrow nucleated cells. 相似文献

Phosphoinositides are bioactive lipids essential in the regulation of cell signaling as well as cytoskeleton and membrane dynamics. Their metabolism is highly active in blood platelets where they play a critical role during activation, at least through two well identified pathways involving phospholipase C and phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K). Here, using a sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method recently developed, we monitored for the first time the profiling of phosphatidylinositol (PI), PIP, PIP2 and PIP3 molecular species (fatty-acyl profiles) in human and mouse platelets during the course of stimulation by thrombin and collagen-related peptide. Furthermore, using class IA PI3K p110α or p110β deficient mouse platelets and a pharmacological inhibitor, we show the crucial role of p110β and the more subtle role of p110α in the production of PIP3 molecular species following stimulation. This comprehensive platelet phosphoinositides profiling provides important resources for future studies and reveals new information on phosphoinositides biology, similarities and differences in mouse and human platelets and unexpected dramatic increase in low-abundance molecular species of PIP2 during stimulation, opening new perspectives in phosphoinositide signaling in platelets. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a protein that belongs to the family of growth factors that bind the ErbB receptors, which play a prominent role in the development of carcinomas. We had demonstrated that potato carboxypeptidase inhibitor (PCI) acts as an EGF antagonist. Because of the low affinity of PCI for the epidermal growth factor receptor, it was decided to design EGF mutants with PCI abilities. In order to achieve this we have first cloned, expressed and purified the native protein, EGF. Different expression systems with different locations of the recombinant protein were designed and a purification protocol was designed with those which allowed expression of EGF. Finally, the sample needed folding. Differences in the amount of EGF obtained and its activity were observed depending on the expression system used. 相似文献

Class I phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are bifunctional enzymes possessing lipid kinase activity and the capacity to phosphorylate their catalytic and/or regulatory subunits. In this study, in vitro autophosphorylation of the G protein-sensitive p85-coupled class I(A) PI3K beta and p101-coupled class I(B) PI3K gamma was examined. Autophosphorylation sites of both PI3K isoforms were mapped to C-terminal serine residues of the catalytic p110 subunit (i.e. serine 1070 of p110 beta and serine 1101 of p110 gamma). Like other class I(A) PI3K isoforms, autophosphorylation of p110 beta resulted in down-regulated PI3K beta lipid kinase activity. However, no inhibitory effect of p110 gamma autophosphorylation on PI3K gamma lipid kinase activity was observed. Moreover, PI3K beta and PI3K gamma differed in the regulation of their autophosphorylation. Whereas p110 beta autophosphorylation was stimulated neither by G beta gamma complexes nor by a phosphotyrosyl peptide derived from the platelet-derived growth factor receptor, autophosphorylation of p110 gamma was significantly enhanced by G beta gamma in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. In summary, we show that autophosphorylation of both PI3K beta and PI3K gamma occurs in a C-terminal region of the catalytic p110 subunit but differs in its regulation and possible functional consequences, suggesting distinct roles of autophosphorylation of PI3K beta and PI3K gamma. 相似文献

An artificial protein containing alternating hydrophilic–hydrophobic blocks of amino acids was designed in order to mimic the structure of synthetic multiblock copolymers. The hydrophobic block consisted of the six amino acids Ala Ile Leu Leu Ile Ile (AILLII) and the hydrophilic block of the eight amino acids Thr Ser Glu Asp Asp Asn Asn Gln (TSEDDNNQ). The coding DNA sequence of the cluster was inserted into an commercial pET 30a(+) vector using a two step strategy. The expression of the artificial protein in Escherichia coli was optimized using a temperature shift strategy. Only at cultivation temperature of 24 °C after induction expression was observed, whereas at 30 and 37 °C no target protein could be detected. Cells obtained from a 15 L bioreactor cultivation of E. coli were disintegrated by mechanical methods. Interestingly, glass bead milling and high pressure homogenization resulted in a different solubility of the target protein. The further purification was carried out by affinity chromatography using the soluble homogenized protein. Extreme conditions (6 M urea, 0.5 M NaCl) were applied in order to prevent aggregation to insoluble particles. The designer protein showed an extremely high tendency to form dimers or trimers caused by intermolecular interactions which were even not broken under the conditions of SDS–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, rendering the behavior during purification different from proteins usually found in nature. The protein preparation was not completely pure according to SDS–PAGE stained by Coomassie blue or silver. In MALDI-TOF-MS, nano-ESI qTOF-MS of the entire protein preparation and nano-ESI-MS after digestion by trypsin and chymotrypsin impurities were not detectable. 相似文献

Heparanase is an endoglucuronidase that plays an important role in tumor invasion and metastasis. A full-length heparanase gene was cloned from a mouse embryo cDNA library and determined to encode a protein of 535 amino acids that is 77% identical to human heparanase. The full-length mouse gene was stably expressed in NS0 myeloma cells. The recombinant mouse heparanase protein was purified to homogeneity from cell lysates by a combination of Con-A affinity chromatography, heparin affinity chromatography, and size exclusion chromatography. The purified protein consisted of a non-covalent heterodimer of 50- and 8-kDa polypeptides, similar to the human homolog. The protein was enzymatically active in assays using radiolabeled ECM and heparan sulfate as substrates. The maximum heparanase activity was observed at acidic conditions; however, significant activity was also detected at neutral pH. The enzymatic activity of mouse heparanase was blocked by known heparanase inhibitors. 相似文献
