Vav1 is a signal transducing protein required for T cell receptor (TCR) signals that drive positive and negative selection in the thymus. Furthermore, Vav1-deficient thymocytes show greatly reduced TCR-induced intracellular calcium flux. Using a novel genetic system which allows the study of signaling in highly enriched populations of CD4(+)CD8(+) double positive thymocytes, we have studied the mechanism by which Vav1 regulates TCR-induced calcium flux. We show that in Vav1-deficient double positive thymocytes, phosphorylation, and activation of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLCgamma1) is defective. Furthermore, we demonstrate that Vav1 regulates PLCgamma1 phosphorylation by at least two distinct pathways. First, in the absence of Vav1 the Tec-family kinases Itk and Tec are no longer activated, most likely as a result of a defect in phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) activation. Second, Vav1-deficient thymocytes show defective assembly of a signaling complex containing PLCgamma1 and the adaptor molecule Src homology 2 domain-containing leukocyte phosphoprotein 76. We show that this latter function is independent of PI3K.

The B cell antigen receptor (BCR) is coupled to the mobilization of Ca(2+) by the protein-tyrosine kinase, Syk. Syk, recruited to the clustered BCR, becomes phosphorylated on three tyrosines (Tyr-317, Tyr-342, and Tyr-346) located within the linker region that separates the C-terminal catalytic domain from the N-terminal tandem Src homology 2 domains. Phosphorylation within the linker region can be either activating or inhibitory to Ca(2+) mobilization depending on the sites that are modified. Syk that is not phosphorylated on linker region tyrosines couples the BCR to Ca(2+) mobilization through a phosphoinositide 3-kinase-dependent pathway. The phosphorylation of Tyr-342 and -346 enhances the phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase C-gamma and the early phase of Ca(2+) mobilization via a phosphoinositide 3-kinase-independent pathway. The phosphorylation of Tyr-317 strongly dampens the Ca(2+) signal. In cells that lack the Src family kinase, Lyn, the phosphorylation of the inhibitory Tyr-317 is suppressed leading to elevated production of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and an amplified Ca(2+) signal. This provides a novel mechanism by which Lyn functions as an inhibitor of BCR-stimulated signaling. Thus, Syk and Lyn combine to determine the pathway through which the BCR is coupled to Ca(2+) mobilization as well as the magnitude and duration of the Ca(2+) flux.

We have recently demonstrated that the beta subunit of the heterotrimeric G-proteins is endogenously mono-ADP-ribosylated in intact cells. The modified betagamma heterodimer loses its ability to inhibit calmodulin-stimulated type 1 adenylate cyclase and, remarkably, is de-ADP-ribosylated by a cytosolic hydrolase that completes an ADP-/de-ADP-ribosylation cycle of potential physiological relevance. In the present study, we show that this ADP-ribosylation might indeed be a general mechanism for termination of betagamma signalling, since the ADP-ribosylated betagamma subunit is also unable to activate both phosphoinositide 3-kinase-gamma and phospholipase C-beta2. Moreover, we show that beta subunit ADP-ribosylation is induced by G-protein-coupled receptor activation, since hormone stimulation of Chinese-hamster ovary plasma membranes leads to increases in beta subunit labelling. This occurs when betagamma is in its active heterodimeric conformation, since full inhibition of this modification can be achieved by binding of GDP-alphai3 to the betagamma heterodimer. Taken together, these findings delineate a pathway that arises from the activation of a G-protein-coupled receptor and leads to the inhibition of betagamma activity through its reversible mono-ADP-ribosylation.

Osmotic shock stimulates the translocation of the glucose transporter Glut 4 to plasma membrane by a tyrosine kinase signaling pathway involving Gab-1 (the Grb2-associated binder-1 protein). We show here that, in response to osmotic shock, Gab-1 acts as a docking protein for phospholipase Cgamma1, the p85 subunit of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and Crk-II. It has been shown that the adapter Crk-II is constitutively associated with C3G, a GDP to GTP exchange factor for several small GTP-binding proteins. We found that inhibition of the activity of phosphoinositide 3-kinase or phospholipase C did not prevent the stimulation of glucose transport by osmotic shock, whereas inactivation of Rho proteins by Clostridium difficile toxin B severely inhibited glucose uptake. Among the Rho family members, overexpression of dominant-interfering TC10/T31N mutant inhibited osmotic shock-mediated Glut 4 translocation suggesting that TC10 is required for this process. Further, disruption of cortical actin integrity by latrunculin B or jasplakinolide severely impaired osmotic shock-induced glucose transport. In contrast, osmotic shock increased the amount of cortical actin associated with caveolin-enriched plasma membrane domains. These data provide the first evidence that activation of TC10 and remodeling of cortical actin, which could occur through the TC10 signaling, are required for osmotic shock-mediated Glut 4 translocation and glucose uptake.

Activation of the enzyme phospholipase C (PLC) leads to the formation of second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. Tyrosine kinase receptors activate this reaction through PLCgamma isoenzymes. PLCgamma activity involves its activation with, and phosphorylation by, receptor tyrosine kinases. Recently, it has been shown that phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-K) may regulate PLCgamma activity through the interaction of the PI 3-K product phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns-3,4,5-P(3)) and the PLCgamma pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. In an effort to understand the signalling pathway that involves PI 3-K regulation of PLCgamma, we found that EGF induces a PI 3-K-dependent translocation of PLCgamma1 at the leading edge of migrating cells in a wound healing assay. Similarly, the isolated PH, but not the Src-homology (SH) domains, N-SH2 or SH3, of PLCgamma1, translocates at the leading edge. Our experiments also showed that stable PH PLCgamma1 expression blocks epidermal growth factor (EGF)- and serum-induced cell motility and increases cell adhesion in MDA-MB-231 cells. This may suggest that influence of PI 3-K on PLCgamma1 could be relevant in cell migration, where PLCgamma1 seems to play a key role by modulating a series of events involved in actin polymerization.

Binding of fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated cholera toxin B subunit to ganglioside GM1 on RBL-2H3 cells at 37 degrees C results in labeling of the plasma membrane as well as a pool of perinuclear intracellular membranes identified as the endosomal recycling compartment. Antigen-mediated activation of IgE receptor signaling causes rapid, sustained outward trafficking of these labeled endosomes, that is monitored as an increase in FITC fluorescence due to relief of quenching in the acidic endosomes upon delivery to the plasma membrane. Stimulation of this process depends on the integrity of cholesterol-dependent lipid rafts and occurs in response to Ca2+-mobilizing thapsigargin as well as antigen. Inhibitors of some early signaling enzymes stimulated by FcepsilonRI, including Syk tyrosine kinase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase, have little or no effect on this trafficking response. Other signaling pathways, including activation of phospholipase C and Ca2+ influx, do not appear to be necessary for the initiation of the outward trafficking response, but they contribute to maintaining the sustained phase of this process. Consistent with this, antigen-stimulated ruffles are labeled with FITC-cholera toxin B in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Thus, this trafficking response provides a mechanism by which an internal membrane pool can contribute to plasma membrane remodeling during stimulated membrane ruffling, cell motility, and phagocytosis.

Although extracellular calcium (Ca(2+)(o)) has been suggested to modulate bone remodeling, the exact mechanism is unclear. This study was performed to explore the signaling pathways of high Ca(2+)(o) that are responsible for controlling the expression of receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL) in mouse osteoblastic cells. As previously reported, high Ca(2+)(o) increased RANKL expression. However, the G protein-coupled Ca(2+)(o)-sensing receptor (CaSR) was not detected in the primary cultured mouse osteoblastic cell. The inhibition of the pertussis-sensitive G protein, phospholipase C, protein kinase C, intracellular calcium mobilization, p38 MAPK, or phosphoinositide 3-kinase did not block RANKL induction caused by high Ca(2+)(o). In contrast, the inhibition of p44/42 MAPK pathway reduced the RANKL expression induced by high Ca(2+)(o). Moreover, high Ca(2+)(o) activated p44/42 MAPK and MEK1/2. These results suggest that RANKL induction by high Ca(2+)(o) might not be mediated by CaSR and its putative downstream signaling pathways, but the pathway employing p44/42 MAPK is involved in the high Ca(2+)(o)-induced RANKL expression in mouse osteoblastic cells.

The role of the phospholipase C (PLC)gamma 2 isotype in platelet activation was evaluated by studying PLC gamma 2 -/- mice. These mice have a prolonged bleeding time but their platelets respond normally to non-collagenous agonists. PLC gamma 2-null platelets show residual aggregation response to collagen fibres (6% versus 74% for wild-type) with minimal granule secretion and no shape change. A delayed shape change is observed at later aggregation times. Specific activation by glycoprotein (GP)VI agonists (convulxin, collagen-related peptide and GPVI crosslinking) is, however, abolished. Antibodies against integrin alpha(2)beta(1) and GPVI each inhibit the residual collagen response, implying a role of alpha(2)beta(1) in platelet activation and a functional association with GPVI. These responses are also prevented by blocking integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase, whereas aspirin treatment and ADP receptor blockade only inhibit shape change. These results provide evidence for a PLC gamma 2-independent collagen activation pathway requiring cooperation between GPVI and alpha(2)beta(1) leading to alpha(IIb)beta(3)-dependent aggregation and shape change by released ADP and thromboxane A(2).

Signalling via m3 and m2 receptors in smooth muscles involved activation of two G-protein-dependent pathways by each receptor. m2 receptors were coupled via Gbetagammai3 with activation of phospholipase C-beta3, phosphoinositide 3-kinase and Cdc42/Rac1 (where Cdc stands for cell division cycle) and p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1), resulting in phosphorylation and inactivation of myosin light chain kinase (MLCK). Each step was inhibited by methoctramine and pertussis toxin. PAK1 activity was abolished in cells expressing both Cdc42-DN (where DN stands for dominant negative) and Rac1-DN. MLCK phosphorylation was inhibited by PAK1 antibody, and in cells expressing Cdc42-DN and Rac1-DN. m3 receptors were coupled via Galpha(q/11) with activation of phospholipase C-beta1 and via RhoA with activation of Rho-associated kinase (Rho kinase), phospholipase D and protein kinase C (PKC). Rho kinase and phospholipase D activities were inhibited by C3 exoenzyme and in cells expressing RhoA-DN. PKC activity was inhibited by bisindolylmaleimide, and in cells expressing RhoA-DN; PKC activity was also inhibited partly by Y27632 (44+/-5%). PKC-induced phosphorylation of PKC-activated 17 kDa inhibitor protein of type 1 phosphatase (CPI-17) at Thr38 was abolished by bisindolylmaleimide and inhibited partly by Y27632 (28+/-3%). Rho-kinase-induced phosphorylation of myosin phosphatase targeting subunit (MYPT1) and was abolished by Y27632. Sustained phosphorylation of 20 kDa regulatory light chain of myosin II (MLC20) and contraction were abolished by bisindolylmaleimide Y27632 and C3 exoenzyme and in cells expressing RhoA-DN. The results suggest that Rho-kinase-dependent phosphorylation of MYPT1 and PKC-dependent phosphorylation and enhancement of CPI-17 binding to the catalytic subunit of MLC phosphatase (MLCP) act co-operatively to inhibit MLCP activity, leading to sustained stimulation of MLC20 phosphorylation and contraction. Because Y27632 inhibited both Rho kinase and PKC activities, it could not be used to ascertain the contribution of MYPT1 to inhibition of MLCP activity. m2-dependent phosphorylation and inactivation of MLCK precluded its involvement in sustained MLC20 phosphorylation and contraction.

In 1321N1 astrocytoma cells, carbachol stimulation of M3 muscarinic cholinergic receptors, coupled to phospholipase C, evoked a persistent 10-20-fold activation of p70 S6 kinase (S6K1). This response was abolished by chelation of cytosolic Ca2+ and reproduced by the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin, but was not prevented by down-regulation or inhibition of protein kinase C. Carbachol-stimulated activation and phosphorylation of S6K1 at Thr389 were prevented by rapamycin, an inhibitor of mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin), or by wortmannin, a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor. Carbachol also stimulated the phosphorylation of eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein-1 (4E-BP1), a second mTOR-dependent event, with similar potency to its effect on S6K1. This response was blocked by rapamycin, but was not markedly affected by 100 nM wortmannin, implying separate roles for mTOR and PI3K in S6K1 activation. Wortmannin abolished the carbachol-stimulated rise in PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and greatly reduced unstimulated levels of this lipid. By contrast, an inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor kinase, AG1478, which prevents carbachol-stimulated ErbB3 transactivation, PI3K recruitment and protein kinase B activation in 1321N1 cells, reduced activation of S6K1 by no more than 30%. This effect was overcome by 10 nM insulin, which on its own did not stimulate S6K1, but increased cellular PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 concentrations comparably with carbachol alone. These observations distinguish obligatory roles for mTOR and PI3K in regulating S6K1, but imply that minimal PI3K activity is sufficient to permit stimulation of S6K1 by other activating factors such as increased cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, which are essential to the muscarinic receptor-mediated response. Moreover, 4E-BP1 and hence, presumably, mTOR can be regulated independently of PI3K activation through these mechanisms.
