Protein kinase B/Akt possesses prosurvival and antiapoptotic activities and is involved in growth factor-mediated neuronal protection. In this study we establish Akt deactivation as a causal mediator of cell death. Akt deactivation occurs in multiple models of cell death including N-methyl-d-aspartate excitotoxicity, vascular stroke, and nitric oxide (NO)- and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-elicited death of HeLa, PC12, and Jurkat T cells. Akt deactivation characterizes both caspase-dependent and -independent cell death. Conditions rescuing cell death, such as treatment with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase or NO synthase inhibitors and preconditioning with sublethal concentrations of N-methyl-d-aspartate, restore Akt activity. Infection of neurons with adenovirus expressing constitutively active Akt prevents excitotoxicity, whereas phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors or infection with dominant negative Akt induce death of untreated neuronal cells.

We sought to clarify the involvement of caspase-12, a representative molecule related to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced cell-death signaling pathways, in neuronal death resulting from ischemia/reperfusion in mice. Transient focal cerebral ischemia (1 h) was produced by intraluminal occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA). We assessed the expression patterns of caspase-12, Bip/GRP78, an ER-resident molecular chaperone whose expression serves as a good marker of ER stress, and caspase-7 by Western blotting and/or immunohistochemistry. Double-fluorescent staining of caspase-12 immunohistochemistry and the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated DNA nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method was performed to clarify the involvement of caspase-12 in cell death. We confirmed that ER stress was induced during reperfusion in our model, as witnessed by up-regulated Bip/GRP78 expression in the MCA territory. Western blot analysis revealed that caspase-12 activation occurred at 5-23 h of reperfusion, and immunoreactivity for caspase-12 was enhanced mainly in striatal neurons on the ischemic side at the same time points. We found the co-localization of caspase-12 immunoreactivity and DNA fragmentation detectable by the TUNEL method. We did not detect the presence of caspase-7 in the ER fraction at the period of caspase-12 cleavage. Our results imply that cerebral ischemia/reperfusion induces ER stress and that caspase-12 activation concurred with ER stress. Caspase-12 seems to be involved in neuronal death induced by ischemia/reperfusion. Caspase-7 is not likely to contribute to the cleavage of caspase-12 in our experimental model.

Neutrophil chemotaxis plays an essential role in innate immunity, but the underlying cellular mechanism is still not fully characterized. Here, using a small-molecule functional screening, we identified NADPH oxidase–dependent reactive oxygen species as key regulators of neutrophil chemotactic migration. Neutrophils with pharmacologically inhibited oxidase, or isolated from chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients and mice, formed more frequent multiple pseudopodia and lost their directionality as they migrated up a chemoattractant concentration gradient. Knocking down NADPH oxidase in differentiated neutrophil-like HL60 cells also led to defective chemotaxis. Consistent with the in vitro results, adoptively transferred CGD murine neutrophils showed impaired in vivo recruitment to sites of inflammation. Together, these results present a physiological role for reactive oxygen species in regulating neutrophil functions and shed light on the pathogenesis of CGD.

Neutrophil spontaneous death plays essential roles in neutrophil homeostasis and resolution of inflammation, whereas the underlying molecular mechanisms are still ill-defined. Neutrophils die because of programmed cell death or apoptosis. However, treatment with inhibitor of caspases, which are responsible for the majority of apoptotic cell deaths, does not prevent the spontaneous death of neutrophils. PKB/Akt possesses prosurvival and antiapoptotic activities in a variety of cells. In this study, we show that Akt activity decreases dramatically during the course of neutrophil death. Both phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and Akt inhibitors enhance neutrophil death. Conditions delaying neutrophil death, such as treatment with granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, or IFN-γ, restore Akt activity. Finally, we demonstrate that neutrophils depleted of PTEN, a phosphatidylinositol 3′-phosphatase that negatively regulates Akt activity, live much longer than WT neutrophils. Thus, we establish Akt deactivation as a causal mediator of neutrophil spontaneous death.

Akt is a serine/threonine kinase that is believed to promote cell viability in many different cell types, including neurons. Here, we observed the state of Akt phosphorylation at several time points (1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h) during permanent occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) in mice. We detected a transient upregulation of Akt phosphorylation at 1 h of MCA occlusion (MCAO) by Western blot analysis. Double immunostaining revealed that the enhanced phosphorylation of Akt occurred mainly in neurons located in the outer area of the MCA territory (ischemic penumbra). This phenomenon was accompanied by the nuclear translocation of Akt. We confirmed that Akt enzymatic activity is elevated in both the nuclear and cytosolic fractions of brain tissue subjected to 1 h of ischemia. cAMP-response-element-binding protein (CREB), an intranuclear target molecule of Akt, exhibited increased phosphorylation after 1 h of MCAO. In our ischemia model, caspase-3 was activated in the central part of the MCA territory as little as 1 h after MCAO. However, caspase-3 activation was not recognized at this time in the outer area of the MCA territory, where Akt activity was upregulated. These results suggest that prosurvival cell signaling is initiated in an active fashion before cell death pathways are activated in neurons situated in the ischemic penumbra at the early stage of ischemia.

Cytokine signaling through leukemia inhibitory factor receptor (LIFR)/gp130 is known to exert a neurotrophic action in the central nervous system, although the role of this signaling in cerebral ischemia remains unknown. We examined the effect of intracerebral injection of LIF after focal cerebral ischemia in rats. The animals underwent a sham operation (sham group) or middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) followed by direct injection of either vehicle (phosphate-buffered saline, the PBS group) or recombinant LIF (10 ng in the low-LIF group and 100 ng in the high-LIF group) into the cerebral cortex adjacent to the inner boundary zone of the infarct area, and neurologic and histologic evaluations were conducted 24 h later. Expression of LIFR, gp130, and phosphorylated Stat3, Akt, and ERK1/2 was investigated by Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry. The neurologic deficits and ischemic damage were significantly less severe in the high-LIF group than in the PBS group and the low-LIF group. Leukemia inhibitory factor receptor and gp130 were expressed in neurons, and the ischemic damage of these proteins was rescued in the high-LIF group. Early induction of phosphorylated Stat3 was significantly detected on the ischemic side in the high-LIF group after LIF injection. Exogenous LIF attenuates ischemic brain injury by activating cytokine signaling through LIFR/gp130.

Neutrophil chemotaxis is a critical component in innate immunity. Recently, using a small-molecule functional screening, we identified NADPH-oxidase-dependent Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as key regulators of neutrophil chemotactic migration. Neutrophils depleted of ROS form more frequent multiple pseudopodia and lost their directionality as they migrate up a chemoattractant concentration gradient. Here, we further studied the role of ROS in neutrophil chemotaxis and found that multiple pseudopodia formation induced by NADPH inhibitor diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI) was more prominent in relatively shallow chemoattractant gradient. It was reported that, in shallow chemoattractant gradients, new pseudopods are usually generated when existing ones bifurcate. Directional sensing is mediated by maintaining the most accurate existing pseudopod, and destroying pseudopods facing the wrong direction by actin depolymerization. We propose that NADPH-mediated ROS production may be critical for disruption of misoriented pseudopods in chemotaxing neutrophils. Thus, inhibition of ROS production will lead to formation of multiple pseudopodia.

BH3-only proteins are a subfamily of proapoptotic Bcl-2 proteins that act upstream of the mitochondrially mediated cell death pathway, and their association with the pathogenesis of brain ischemia remains largely unknown. The authors explored the temporal profiles of the expression levels and subcellular localization of BH3-only proteins in permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) by Western blot analysis. They observed an increased mitochondrial distribution of Bim at 3 to 6 hours of MCAO that appeared unrelated to transcriptional upregulation, as assessed by semiquantitative reverse transcription—polymerase chain reaction. At 3 to 6 hours of MCAO, Bim immunoreactivity was enhanced in neurons and oligodendrocytes in the ischemic regions. The increased mitochondrial localization of Bim coincided with a marked cytochrome c release and preceded the peak of caspase-9 activation. The authors observed an association of Bim with the dynein intermediate chain, a major component of the dynein motor complex, in the brain using a coimmunoprecipitation assay. Cerebral ischemia induced a time-dependent significant decrease in dynein expression, which started at 3 hours of MCAO. The authors deduced that the liberation of Bim from the dynein motor complex is a likely mechanism for the increased mitochondrial localization of Bim. During MCAO, Bad did not show any change in phosphorylation state or subcellular localization.

Various neutrophil functions such as phagocytosis, superoxide production, and survival are regulated by integrin signaling. Despite the essential role of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in mediating this signaling pathway, its exact function in neutrophils is ill defined. In this study, we investigated the role of FAK in neutrophils using a myeloid-specific conditional FAK knockout mouse. As reported in many other cell types, FAK is required for regulation of focal adhesion dynamics when neutrophils adhere to fibronectin or ICAM-1. Adhesion on VCAM-1-coated surfaces and chemotaxis after adhesion were not altered in FAK null neutrophils. In addition, we observed significant reduction in NADPH oxidase-mediated superoxide production and complement-mediated phagocytosis in FAK null neutrophils. As a result, these neutrophils displayed decreased pathogen killing capability both in vitro and in vivo in a mouse peritonitis model. In adherent cells, the defects associated with FAK deficiency are likely due to suppression of phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) signaling and chemoattractant-elicited calcium signaling. Disruption of FAK also reduced chemoattractant-elicited superoxide production in suspended neutrophils in the absence of cell adhesion. This may be solely caused by suppression of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 signaling in these cells, because the fMLP-elicited calcium signal was not altered. Consistent with decreased PtdIns(3,4,5)P3/Akt signaling in FAK null neutrophils, we also observed accelerated spontaneous death in these cells. Taken together, our results revealed previously unrecognized roles of FAK in neutrophil function and provided a potential therapeutic target for treatment of a variety of infectious and inflammatory diseases.

ABSTRACT Cancer cells in their respective microenvironments must endure various growth-constraining stresses. Under these conditions, the cancer cell-derived factors are thought to modulate the signaling pathways between cell growth and dormancy. Here, we describe a cancer cell-derived regulatory system that modulates the phosphatidylinositol 3′-kinase (PI3K)-Akt pathway under serum deprivation stress. Through the use of biochemical purification, we reveal that cancer cell-secreted insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and clusterin, an extracellular stress protein, constitute this regulatory system. We show that secreted clusterin associates with IGF-1 and inhibits its binding to the IGF-1 receptor and hence negatively regulates the PI3K-Akt pathway during serum deprivation. This inhibitory function of clusterin appears to prefer IGF-1, as it fails to exert any effects on epidermal growth factor signaling. We demonstrate furthermore that the constitutive activation of oncogenic signaling downstream of IGF-1 confers insensitivity to the inhibitory effects of clusterin. Thus, the interplay between cancer cell-derived clusterin and IGF-1 may dictate the outcome of cell growth and dormancy during tumorigenic progression.
