Preliminary Communication Aging Decreases Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bis- Phosphate Level but Has No Effect on Activities of Phosphoinositide Kinases

چکیده
Phosphoinositides play an important role in cell signaling and cytoskeleton function. In this study, we investigate the effect of brain aging on phosphatidylinositol-4monophosphate (PI(4)P) and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P ) synthesis by PI 4-kinase (PI4K) and PI(4)P 5-kinase (PIP5K) in cortical synaptic plasma membranes in the presence of endogenous and exogenous substrates and -[ P]ATP. Our data demonstrated that aging decreases PI(4,5)P formation by 40% in the presence of endogenous substrate, but had no effect on PI4K and PIP5K activities. One can hypothesize that aging decreases PI(4,5)P level probably by enhancement of polyphosphoinositides degradation. Alteration of PI(4,5)P concentration may disturb cellular signaling and cytoskeleton dynamics.

Insulin-stimulated phosphoinositide metabolism in isolated fat cells.
Treatment of isolated fat cells with insulin produced increases of up to 4.8-fold in the incorporation of [3H]inositol into phosphatidylinositol. This effect of insulin was both time- and dose-dependent with half-maximal stimulation at 30 microunits/ml of insulin. Insulin increased the labeling of phosphatidylinositol and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate but not phosphatidylinositol 4-mono...

Phosphoinositides are critical regulators in cell biology. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, also known as PI(4,5)P2 or PIP2, was the first variety of phosphoinositide to enter in the T cell signaling scene. Phosphatidylinositol bis-phosphates are the substrates for different types of enzymes such as phospholipases C (β and γ isoforms) and phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K class IA and IB) ...

Phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate (PI-5-P) is a newly identified phosphoinositide with characteristics of a signaling lipid but no known cellular function. PI-5-P levels are controlled by the type II PI-5-P 4-kinases (PIP4K IIs), a family of kinases that converts PI-5-P into phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PI-4,5-P2). The PI-5-P pathway is an alternative route for PI-4,5-P2 synthesis as t...

Type III phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) 4-kinases (PI4Ks) have been previously shown to support plasma membrane phosphoinositide synthesis during phospholipase C activation and Ca(2+) signaling. Here, we use biochemical and imaging tools to monitor phosphoinositide changes in the plasma membrane in combination with pharmacological and genetic approaches to determine which of the type III PI4Ks (...

BACKGROUND Mammalian phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI 3-kinases) are involved in receptor-mediated signal transduction and have been implicated in processes such as transformation and mitogenesis through their role in elevating cellular phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate. Additionally, a PI 3-kinase activity which generates phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate has been shown to be required fo...
