Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) and its phosphorylated product PI 3,4,5-triphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) are two major phosphoinositides concentrated at the plasma membrane. Their levels, which are tightly controlled by kinases, phospholipases, and phosphatases, regulate a variety of cellular functions, including clathrin-mediated endocytosis and receptor signaling. In this study, we show that the inositol 5-phosphatase SHIP2, a negative regulator of PI(3,4,5)P3-dependent signaling, also negatively regulates PI(4,5)P2 levels and is concentrated at endocytic clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) via interactions with the scaffold protein intersectin. SHIP2 is recruited early at the pits and dissociates before fission. Both knockdown of SHIP2 expression and acute production of PI(3,4,5)P3 shorten CCP lifetime by enhancing the rate of pit maturation, which is consistent with a positive role of both SHIP2 substrates, PI(4,5)P2 and PI(3,4,5)P3, on coat assembly. Because SHIP2 is a negative regulator of insulin signaling, our findings suggest the importance of the phosphoinositide metabolism at CCPs in the regulation of insulin signal output.

Increasing evidence implicates the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of diabetes and complications. Inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α) are elevated in obese diabetic subjects, and are shown to modulate glucose metabolism in peripheral organs. In this report, we examined the effects of IL-6 on cardiac metabolism and insulin action in vivo. Male C57BL/6 mice were intravenously treated with IL-6 (16 ng/hr) or saline (control) for 2 hrs, and [ 14 C]2-deoxyglucose was intravenously injected in awake mice to measure myocardial glucose metabolism (n=9~10). Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps (2.5 mU/kg/min insulin infusion) were also performed in IL-6 or saline-treated mice (n=4~5) to measure cardiac insulin action. Acute treatment with IL-6 caused a 25% increase in myocardial STAT3 activity and significantly reduced basal myocardial glucose metabolism (Fig. 1 ; * P< 0.05). IL-6 treatment also reduced insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in heart, and these effects were associated with marked decreases in AMPK activity (Thr-phosphorylation of AMPK; Fig. 2 ) and IRS-1 tyrosine phosphorylation (Fig. 3 ). Acute IL-6 treatment increased myocardial expression of PKC-𝛉, which has been shown to mediate insulin resistance in peripheral organs (Fig. 4 ). These results indicate that IL-6 is a potent negative regulator of myocardial glucose metabolism and insulin action, and the underlying mechanism may involve IL-6 mediated activation of PKC-𝛉 and defects in AMPK and insulin signaling activity. Thus, our findings suggest a potential role of IL-6 in the pathogenesis of diabetic heart failure.

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensor STIM1 forms oligomers and translocates to ER–plasma membrane (PM) junctions to activate store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) after ER Ca2+ depletion. STIM1 also interacts with EB1 and dynamically tracks microtubule (MT) plus ends. Nevertheless, the role of STIM1–EB1 interaction in regulating SOCE remains unresolved. Using live-cell imaging combined with a synthetic construct approach, we found that EB1 binding constitutes a trapping mechanism restricting STIM1 targeting to ER–PM junctions. We further showed that STIM1 oligomers retain EB1 binding ability in ER Ca2+-depleted cells. By trapping STIM1 molecules at dynamic contacts between the ER and MT plus ends, EB1 binding delayed STIM1 translocation to ER–PM junctions during ER Ca2+ depletion and prevented excess SOCE and ER Ca2+ overload. Our study suggests that STIM1–EB1 interaction shapes the kinetics and amplitude of local SOCE in cellular regions with growing MTs and contributes to spatiotemporal regulation of Ca2+ signaling crucial for cellular functions and homeostasis.

Abstract The discovery of the DP4-related enzymes DP8 and DP9 raised controversial discussion regarding the physiological and pathophysiological function of distinct members of the DP4 family. Particularly with regard to their potential relevance in regulating immune functions, it is of interest to know which role the subcellular distribution of the enzymes play. Synthetic substrates as well as low molecular weight inhibitors are widely used as tools, but little is yet known regarding their features in cell experiments, such as their plasma membrane penetration capacity. The fluorogenic substrates Gly-Pro-AMC or (Ala-Pro)2-R110 predominantly detect plasma membrane-bound activities of viable cells (less than 0.1% of fluorochromes R110 or AMC inside viable cells after 1 h incubation). Additionally, the selective and non-selective DP8/9 inhibitors allo-Ile-isoindoline and Lys[Z(NO2)]-pyrrolidide were found to be incapable of passing the plasma membrane easily. This suggests that previously reported cellular effects are not due to inhibition of the cytosolic enzymes DP8 or DP9. Moreover, our enzymatic studies with viable cells provided evidence that DP8 and/or DP9 are also present on the surface of immune cells under certain circumstances and could gain relevance particularly in the absence of DP4 expression. In summary, in cells which do express DP4 on the surface, this archetypical member of the DP4 family is the most relevant peptidase in the regulation of cellular functions.

AbstractThe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ sensor STIM1 forms oligomers and translocates to ER-plasma membrane (PM) junctions to activate store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) following ER Ca2+ depletion. STIM1 also directly interacts with end binding protein 1 (EB1) at microtubule (MT) plus-ends and resembles comet-like structures during time-lapse imaging. Nevertheless, the role of STIM1-EB1 interaction in regulating SOCE remains unresolved. Using live-cell imaging combined with pharmacological perturbation and a reconstitution approach, we revealed that EB1 binding constitutes a diffusion trap mechanism restricting STIM1 targeting to ER-PM junctions. We further showed that STIM1 oligomers retain EB1 binding ability in ER Ca2+-depleted cells. EB1 binding delayed the translocation of STIM1 oligomers to ER-PM junctions and recaptured STIM1 to prevent excess SOCE and ER Ca2+ overload. Thus, the counterbalance of EB1 binding and PM targeting of STIM1 shapes the kinetics and amplitude of local SOCE in regions with growing MTs, and contributes to precise spatiotemporal regulation of Ca2+ signaling crucial for cellular functions and homeostasis.SummarySTIM1 activates store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) by translocating to endoplasmic reticulum-plasma membrane junctions. Chang et al. revealed that STIM1 localization and SOCE are regulated by a diffusion trap mechanism mediated by STIM1 binding to EB1 at growing microtubule ends.

Wave Complex

The Scar/WAVE complex is the major driver of actin nucleation at the plasma membrane, resulting in lamellipodia and membrane ruffles. While lamellipodia aid migration, membrane ruffles can generate macropinosomes - cup-like structures - important for nutrient uptake and regulation of cell surface receptor levels. How macropinosomes are formed and the role of the actin machinery in their formation and resolution is still not well understood. Mammalian CYRI-B is a recently described negative regulator of the Scar/WAVE complex by RAC1 sequestration, but its other paralogue, CYRI-A has not been characterised. Here we implicate CYRI-A as a key regulator of macropinocytosis maturation and integrin internalisation from the cell surface. We find that CYRI-A is recruited to nascent macropinosomes in a transient but distinct burst, downstream of PIP3-mediated RAC1 activation to regulate actin polymerisation. CYRI-A precedes RAB5A recruitment to engulfed macropinocytic cups and departs as RAB5A is recruited, consistent with a role for CYRI-A as a local suppressor of actin dynamics, enabling the resolution of the macropinocytic cup. The suppression of integrin a5b1 uptake caused by the co-depletion of CYRI-A and B in Ewing sarcoma cells, leads to an enhancement of surface integrin levels and enhanced invasion and anchorage-independent growth in 3D. Thus CYRI-A is a dynamic regulator of integrin uptake via macropinocytosis, functioning together with CYRI-B to regulate integrin homeostasis on the cell surface.

The small GTPases Rac1 and Rap1 can fulfill multiple cellular functions because their activation kinetics and localization are precisely controlled. To probe the role of their spatiotemporal dynamics, we generated optogenetic tools that activate or inhibit endogenous Rac and Rap1 in living cells. An improved version of the light induced dimerization (iLID) system [1] was used to control plasma membrane localization of protein domains that specifically activate or inactivate Rap1 and Rac (Tiam1 and Chimerin for Rac, RasGRP2 and Rap1GAP for Rap1 [2, 3, 4, 5]). Irradiation yielded a 50% to 230% increase in the concentration of these domains at the membrane, leading to effects on cell morphodynamics consistent with the known roles of Rac1 and Rap1.

Cytoskeleton Organization

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) is an essential plasma membrane component involved in several cellular functions, including membrane trafficking and cytoskeleton organization. This function multiplicity is partially achieved through a dynamic spatiotemporal organization of PI(4,5)P2 within the membrane. Here, we use a Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) approach to quantitatively assess the extent of PI(4,5)P2 confinement within the plasma membrane. This methodology relies on the rigorous evaluation of the dependence of absolute FRET efficiencies between pleckstrin homology domains (PHPLCδ) fused with fluorescent proteins and their average fluorescence intensity at the membrane. PI(4,5)P2 is found to be significantly compartmentalized at the plasma membrane of HeLa cells, and these clusters are not cholesterol-dependent, suggesting that membrane rafts are not involved in the formation of these nanodomains. On the other hand, upon inhibition of actin polymerization, compartmentalization of PI(4,5)P2 is almost entirely eliminated, showing that the cytoskeleton network is the critical component responsible for the formation of nanoscale PI(4,5)P2 domains in HeLa cells.

Specific Proteins

Precise regulation of protein assembly at specialized membrane domains is essential for diverse cellular functions including synaptic transmission. However, it is incompletely understood how protein clustering at the plasma membrane is initiated, maintained and controlled. Protein palmitoylation, a common post-translational modification, regulates protein targeting to the plasma membrane. Such modified proteins are enriched in these specialized membrane domains. In this review, we focus on palmitoylation of PSD-95, which is a major postsynaptic scaffolding protein and makes discrete postsynaptic nanodomains in a palmitoylation-dependent manner and discuss a determinant role of local palmitoylation cycles in creating highly localized hotspots at the membrane where specific proteins concentrate to organize functional domains.
