phospholipase C
Opis:
A body of evidence, linking inositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) to the nucleus, is quite extensive. The main isoform in the nucleus is PI-PLCβ1, whose activity is up-regulated in response to insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) or insulin stimulation. Whilst at the plasma membrane this PI-PLC is activated and regulated by Gαq/α11 and Gβg subunits, there is yet no evidence that qα/α11 is present within the nuclear compartment, neither GTP-γ-S nor AlF4 can stimulate PI-PLCβ1 activity in isolated nuclei. Here we review the evidence that upon occupancy of type 1 IGF receptor there is translocation to the nucleus of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) which phosphorylates nuclear PI-PLCβ1 and triggers its signalling, hinting at a separate pathway of regulation depending on the subcellular location of PI-PLCβ1. The difference in the regulation of the activity of PI-PLCβ1mirrors the evidence that nuclear and cytoplasmatic inositides can differ markedly in their signalling capability. Indeed, we do know that agonists which affect nuclear inositol lipid cycle at the nucleus do not stimulate the one at the plasma membrane.

Opis:
The protein kinase c-erbB-2 belongs to the family of receptor tyrosine kinase and is involved in oncogenesis. The present study predicts different phosphorylation sites of HER2/c-erbB-2 which are important in preventing or developing cancer, especially breast cancer. Sequence homology showed highest homology (77%) with epidermal growth factor receptor kinase domain. According to PROSITE search result, active sites of c-erbB-2 are N-lobe (glycine rich phosphate binding loop). Catalytic loop with presumptive catalytically active of Asp108 is phosphorylated by tyrosine protein kinase. A-loop, activation loop, becomes phosphorylated and activates the substrate binding. The study strengthens our knowledge regarding HER2 signaling by the detection of uncharacterized signaling proteins, establishing phosphorylation of an activation loop and helps us to make assumptions about the role of such previously unidentified proteins. On the basis of importance of HER2 in breast cancer as well as in other diseases, this study provides fruitful information for designing new therapeutic strategies.

Opis:
Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), an inducible enzyme degrading heme to biliverdin, iron and carbon monoxide, is involved in regulation of inflammation and angiogenesis. Tin protoporphyrin (SnPPIX) and zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPPIX) are commonly used as competitive inhibitors of HO-1. We aimed to compare the effects of SnPPIX and ZnPPIX on the production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), activity of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cell viability. All experiments were performed on rat vascular smooth muscle cells and murine RAW264.7 macrophages treated with 3-10 μM protoporphyrins. Some cells were additionally stimulated with IL-1β or with lipopolysaccharide. After a 24 h incubation period SnPPIX and ZnPPIX significantly reduced the generation of VEGF in vascular smooth muscle cells and RAW264.7, both in resting and stimulated cells. The inhibitory potentials of both protoporphyrins on VEGF synthesis were very similar. In contrast, analysis of iNOS activity revealed that results obtained with different HO-1 inhibitors are discrepant. Generation of nitric oxide by iNOS was significantly increased by SnPPIX but strongly decreased by ZnPPIX. Similar differences were observed when cell viability was compared. SnPPIX improved the cell survival rate, whereas the same doses of ZnPPIX exerted some cytotoxic effects. In summary, SnPPIX and ZnPPIX can be used as HO-1 inhibitors in some experimental models. However, these compounds produce also HO-independent effects, which can make the interpretation of experiments very uncertain. Thus the involvement of the HO-1 pathway should be always confirmed by more specific methods.
