Abstract
A dominant paradigm being developed in immunotherapy for hematologic malignancies is of adaptive immunotherapy that involves chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells and bispecific T-cell engagers. CAR T-cell therapy has yielded results that surpass those of the existing salvage immunochemotherapy for patients with relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after first-line immunochemotherapy, while offering a therapeutic option for patients with follicular lymphoma (FL) and mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). However, the role of the innate immune system has been shown to prolong CAR T-cell persistence. Cluster of differentiation (CD) 47-blocking antibodies, which are a promising therapeutic armamentarium for DLBCL, are novel innate immune checkpoint inhibitors that allow macrophages to phagocytose tumor cells. Intratumoral Toll-like receptor 9 agonist CpG oligodeoxynucleotide plays a pivotal role in FL, and vaccination may be required in MCL. Additionally, local stimulator of interferon gene agonists, which induce a systemic anti-lymphoma CD8+ T-cell response, and the costimulatory molecule 4-1BB/CD137 or OX40/CD134 agonistic antibodies represent attractive agents for dendritic cell activations, which subsequently, facilitates initiation of productive T-cell priming and NK cells. This review describes the exploitation of approaches that trigger innate immune activation for adaptive immune cells to operate maximally in the tumor microenvironment of these lymphomas.

Abstract
The effect of twinfilin-1 on the structure and dynamics of monomeric actin was investigated with fluorescence spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry experiments. Fluorescence anisotropy measurements proved that G-actin and twinfilin-1 could form a complex. Due to the formation of the complexes the dissociation of the nucleotide slowed down from the nucleotide-binding pocket of actin. Fluorescence quenching experiments showed that the accessibility of the actin bound ε-ATP decreased in the presence of twinfilin-1. Temperature dependent fluorescence resonance energy transfer and differential scanning calorimetry experiments revealed that the protein matrix of actin becomes more rigid and more heat resistant in the presence of twinfilin-1. The results suggest that the nucleotide binding cleft shifted into a more closed and stable conformational state of actin in the presence of twinfilin-1.

Abstract
Several studies have clearly established the importance of the interaction between macrophages and CX3CL1 in the progression of disease. A previous study demonstrated that Syk was required for CX3CL1-mediated actin polymerization and chemotaxis. Here, we delineated the signaling cascade of Syk-mediated cell migration in response to CX3CL1. Inhibition of Syk in bone marrow-derived macrophages or reduction of Syk expression using siRNA in RAW/LR5 cells indicated that Syk was required for the activation of PI3K, Cdc42, and Rac1. Also, reduction in WASP or WAVE2 levels, common downstream effectors of Cdc42 or Rac1, resulted in impaired cell migration to CX3CL1. Syk indirectly regulated WASP tyrosine phosphorylation through Cdc42 activation. Altogether, our data identify that Syk mediated chemotaxis toward CX3CL1 by regulating both Rac1/WAVE2 and Cdc42/WASP pathways, whereas Src family kinases were required for proper WASP tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Annexin A6 (AnxA6), calcium- and membrane-binding protein, is involved in membrane dynamics. It exists in the cell in two isoforms, AnxA6-1 and AnxA6-2, varying only by the VAAEIL sequence. In most cells, AnxA6-1 predominates. A limited number of observations suggests that both isoforms differ from each other functionally. The EGF-dependent Ca(2+) influx in A431 cells is inhibited only by AnxA6-1. Moreover, AnxA6-2 was found to exhibit higher affinity for Ca(2+). In this report we addressed the potential significance of the VAAEIL deletion in AnxA6-2. For this purpose, we expressed AnxA6 isoform cDNAs in bacteria or mouse Balb/3T3 fibroblasts. The recombinant AnxA6-2 was characterized by a less extended molecular shape than that of AnxA6-1 and required a narrower [Ca(2+)] range to bind liposomes. Upon lowering pH in the presence of EGTA recombinant AnxA6-2 became less hydrophobic than AnxA6-1 as revealed by the Triton X-114 partition. Furthermore, AnxA6-2 revealed stronger F-actin binding than that of AnxA6-1. Immunofluorescence microscopy showed that the EGFP-tagged AnxA6 isoforms expressed in Balb/3T3 fibroblasts relocate in a Ca(2+)- and H(+)-sensitive manner to the vesicular structures in a perinuclear region or in cytosol. Cell fractionation showed that in resting conditions AnxA6-1 is associated with early endosomes and AnxA6-2 with late endosomes, and an increase in [Ca(2+)] and/or [H(+)] induced their opposite distribution. These findings suggest a potentially independent regulation, localization, and function of AnxA6 isoforms in Balb/3T3 fibroblasts. More generally, our findings suggest distinct functions of AnxA6 isoforms in membrane dynamics.

Abstract
Phagocytosis of foreign cells or particles by macrophages is a rapid process that is inefficient when faced with “self” cells that display CD47—although signaling mechanisms in self-recognition have remained largely unknown. With human macrophages, we show the phagocytic synapse at cell contacts involves a basal level of actin-driven phagocytosis that, in the absence of species-specific CD47 signaling, is made more efficient by phospho-activated myosin. We use “foreign” sheep red blood cells (RBCs) together with CD47-blocked, antibody-opsonized human RBCs in order to visualize synaptic accumulation of phosphotyrosine, paxillin, F-actin, and the major motor isoform, nonmuscle myosin-IIA. When CD47 is functional, the macrophage counter-receptor and phosphatase-activator SIRPα localizes to the synapse, suppressing accumulation of phosphotyrosine and myosin without affecting F-actin. On both RBCs and microbeads, human CD47 potently inhibits phagocytosis as does direct inhibition of myosin. CD47–SIRPα interaction initiates a dephosphorylation cascade directed in part at phosphotyrosine in myosin. A point mutation turns off this motor's contribution to phagocytosis, suggesting that self-recognition inhibits contractile engulfment.

Abstract
Human rhinovirus (HRV) causes the common cold. The most common acute infection in humans, HRV is a leading cause of exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstruction pulmonary disease because of its ability to exacerbate airway inflammation by altering epithelial cell biology upon binding to its receptor, ICAM-1. ICAM-1 regulates not only viral entry and replication but also signaling pathways that lead to inflammatory mediator production. We recently demonstrated the Syk tyrosine kinase to be an important mediator of HRV-ICAM-1 signaling: Syk regulates replication-independent p38 MAPK activation and IL-8 expression. In leukocytes, Syk regulates receptor-mediated internalization via PI3K. Although PI3K has been shown to regulate HRV-induced IL-8 expression and clathrin-mediated endocytosis of HRV, the role of airway epithelial Syk in this signaling pathway is not known. We postulated that Syk regulates PI3K activation and HRV endocytosis in the airway epithelium. Using confocal microscopy and immunoprecipitation, we demonstrated recruitment of the normally cytosolic Syk to the plasma membrane upon HRV16-ICAM-1 binding, along with Syk-clathrin coassociation. Subsequent incubation at 37 degrees C to permit internalization revealed redistribution of Syk to punctate structures resembling endosomes and colocalization with HRV16. Internalized HRV was not detected in cells overexpressing the kinase inactive Syk(K396R) mutant, indicating that kinase activity was necessary for endocytosis. HRV-induced PI3K activation was dependent on Syk; Syk knockdown by small interfering RNA significantly decreased phosphorylation of the PI3K substrate Akt. Together, these data reveal Syk to be an important mediator of HRV endocytosis and HRV-induced PI3K activation.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a complex sequence of events involving coordinated remodeling of the plasma membrane with the underlying cytoskeleton. Although the role of the actin cytoskeleton is becoming increasingly elucidated, the role of microtubules (MTs) remains poorly understood. Here, we examine the role of MTs during FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis in RAW264.7 mouse macrophages. We observe that MTs extend into the phagosomal cups. The MT-depolymerizing agents, colchicine and nocodazole, cause a sizeable reduction in phagocytosis of large particles in RAW264.7 cells. Phagocytosis in primed macrophages is unaffected by MT-depolymerizing agents. However, activation of macrophages coincides with an increased population of drug-stable MTs, which persist in functional phagocytic cups. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of unprimed macrophages reveals that pseudopod formation is reduced markedly following colchicine treatment, which is not a consequence of cell rounding. MT depolymerization in these cells does not affect particle binding, Syk, or Grb2-associated binder 2 recruitment or phosphotyrosine accumulation at the site of phagocytosis. Ras activation also proceeds normally in macrophages treated with colchicine. However, MT disruption causes a decrease in accumulation of AKT-pleckstrin homology-green fluorescent protein, a probe that binds to PI-3K products at the sites of particle binding. A corresponding decline in activated AKT is observed in colchicine-treated cells using immunoblotting with a phospho-specific-AKT (ser473) antibody. Furthermore, the translocation of the p85alpha regulatory subunit of PI-3K is reduced at the phagocytic cup in colchicine-treated cells. These findings suggest that MTs regulate the recruitment and localized activity of PI-3K during pseudopod formation.

Abstract
Mononuclear phagocytes are critical modulators and effectors of innate and adaptive immune responses, and PI-3Ks have been shown to be multifunctional monocyte regulators. The PI-3K family includes eight catalytic isoforms, and only limited information is available about how these contribute to fine specificity in monocyte cell regulation. We examined the regulation of phagocytosis, the phagocyte oxidative burst, and LPS-induced cytokine production by human monocytic cells deficient in p110alpha PI-3K. We observed that p110alpha PI-3K was required for phagocytosis of IgG-opsonized and nonopsonized zymosan in differentiated THP-1 cells, and the latter was inhibitable by mannose. In contrast, p110alpha PI-3K was not required for ingestion serum-opsonized zymosan. Taken together, these results suggest that FcgammaR- and mannose receptor-mediated phagocytosis are p110alpha-dependent, whereas CR3-mediated phagocytosis involves a distinct isoform. It is notable that the phagocyte oxidative burst induced in response to PMA or opsonized zymosan was also found to be dependent on p110alpha in THP-1 cells. Furthermore, p110alpha was observed to exert selective and bidirectional effects on the secretion of pivotal cytokines. Incubation of p110alpha-deficient THP-1 cells with LPS showed that p110alpha was required for IL-12p40 and IL-6 production, whereas it negatively regulated the production of TNF-alpha and IL-10. Cells deficient in p110alpha also exhibited enhanced p38 MAPK, JNK, and NF-kappaB phosphorylation. Thus, p110alpha PI-3K appears to uniquely regulate important monocyte functions, where other PI-3K isoforms are uninvolved or unable to fully compensate.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a complex and apparently evolutionarily conserved process that plays a central role in the immune response to infection. By ultrastructural and functional criteria, Drosophila hemocyte (macrophage) phagocytosis resembles mammalian phagocytosis. Using a non-saturated forward genetic screen for larval hemocyte phagocytosis mutants, D-SCAR and profilin were identified as important regulators of phagocytosis in Drosophila. In both hemocytes ex vivo and the macrophage-like S2 cell line, lack of D-SCAR significantly decreased phagocytosis of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. In contrast, profilin mutant hemocytes exhibited increased phagocytic activity. Analysis of double mutants suggests that D-SCAR and profilin interact during phagocytosis. Finally, RNA interference studies in S2 cells indicated that the D-SCAR homolog D-WASp also participates in phagocytosis. This study demonstrates that Drosophila provides a viable model system in which to dissect the complex interactions that regulate phagocytosis.

Abstract
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) induces proliferation, maturation, and functional activities of myeloid progenitors and mature neutrophils through a specific receptor, the G-CSF-R. Different signals are mediated by distinct regions of the cytoplasmic domain of G-CSF-R, but the precise role of each region has not yet been fully clarified. We evaluated the involvement of Syk kinase, essential in mediating phagocytic signals by Fcgamma receptors, in G-CSF-induced phagocytosis, using murine myeloid 32D cells transfected with wild-type (WT) human G-CSF-R (hG-CSF-R) or with a G-CSF-R mutant truncated at cytoplasmic amino acid 715. The G-CSF-R mutant lacks the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM), putative binding site for Syk. Following treatment of WT hG-CSF-R transfectants with IgG-coated particles, there was a significant increase in phagocytosis in G-CSF-stimulated cells, in which Syk tyrosine phosphorylation occurred, paralleled by enhancement of its tyrosine kinase activity. In the mutant transfectants, no significant increase in phagocytosis or Syk tyrosine phosphorylation occurred after stimulation with G-CSF. We also demonstrated that tyrosine phosphorylation of the Src kinases Hck and Lyn occurs following G-CSF stimulation of cells expressing WT G-CSF-R, but that Hck is not phosphorylated in mutant G-CSF-R transfectants. The increase in phagocytosis following G-CSF stimulation cannot be attributed to a rapid de novo increase in expression of Fcgamma receptors. G-CSF induced expression of Fcgamma receptors only after prolonged stimulation. Our data provide evidence that the carboxy-terminal region of G-CSF-R plays a role in the phagocytosis of IgG-coated particles and that Syk and Hck kinase tyrosine phosphorylation is involved.

Abstract
Molecular mechanisms by which the Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) negatively regulates phagocytosis in macrophages are unclear. We addressed the issue using bone marrow-derived macrophages from FcgammaR- or SHIP-deficient mice. Phagocytic activities of macrophages from FcgammaRII(b)(-/-) and SHIP(-/-) mice were enhanced to a similar extent, relative to those from wild type. However, calcium influx was only marginally affected in FcgammaRII(b)(-/-), but greatly enhanced in SHIP(-/-) macrophages. Furthermore, SHIP was phosphorylated on tyrosine residues upon FcgammaR aggregation even in macrophages from FcgammaRII(b)(-/-) mice or upon clustering of a chimeric receptor containing CD8 and the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-bearing gamma-chain or human-restricted FcgammaRIIa. These findings indicate that, unlike B cells, SHIP is efficiently phosphorylated in the absence of an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM)-bearing receptor. We further demonstrate that SHIP directly bound to phosphorylated peptides derived from FcgammaRIIa with a high affinity, comparable to that of FcgammaRII(b). Lastly, FcgammaRIIa-mediated phagocytosis was significantly enhanced in THP-1 cells overexpressing dominant-negative form of SHIP in the absence of FcgammaRII(b). These results indicate that SHIP negatively regulates FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis through all ITAM-containing IgG receptors using a molecular mechanism distinct from that in B cells.

Abstract
Fcγ receptor–mediated phagocytosis is a complex process involving the activation of protein tyrosine kinases, events that are potentially down-regulated by protein tyrosine phosphatases. We used the J774A.1 macrophage cell line to examine the roles played by the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 in the negative regulation of Fcγ receptor–mediated phagocytosis. Stimulation with sensitized sheep red blood cells (sRBCs) induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CBL and association of CBL with CRKL. These events were completely or partially abrogated by PP1 or the heterologous expression of dominant-negative SYK, respectively. Heterologous expression of wild-type but not catalytically inactive SHP-1 also completely abrogated the phagocytosis of IgG-sensitized sRBCs. Most notably, overexpressed SHP-1 associates with CBL and this association led to CBL dephosphorylation, loss of the CBL-CRKL interaction, and the suppression of Rac activation. These data represent the first direct evidence that SHP-1 is involved in the regulation of Fcγ receptor–mediated phagocytosis and suggest that activating signals mediated by SRC family kinases SYK, CBL, phosphatidyl inositol-3 (PI-3) kinase, and Rac are directly opposed by inhibitory signals through SHP-1.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is the process whereby cells direct the spatially localized, receptor-driven engulfment of particulate materials. It proceeds via remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton and shares many of the core cytoskeletal components involved in adhesion and migration. Small GTPases of the Rho family have been widely implicated in coordinating actin dynamics in response to extracellular signals and during diverse cellular processes, including phagocytosis, yet the mechanisms controlling their recruitment and activation are not known. We show herein that in response to ligation of Fc receptors for IgG (FcgammaR), the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Vav translocates to nascent phagosomes and catalyzes GTP loading on Rac, but not Cdc42. The Vav-induced Rac activation proceeds independently of Cdc42 function, suggesting distinct roles for each GTPase during engulfment. Moreover, inhibition of Vav exchange activity or of Cdc42 activity does not prevent Rac recruitment to sites of particle attachment. We conclude that Rac is recruited to Fcgamma membrane receptors in its inactive, GDP-bound state and that Vav regulates phagocytosis through subsequent catalysis of GDP/GTP exchange on Rac.

Cross-linking the FcgammaRs can activate a wide variety of biological responses in macrophages. Receptor stimulation induces activation of protein tyrosine kinase cascades that result in phagocytosis, a process known to involve cytoskeletal rearrangements. Therefore, an involvement of non-receptor tyrosine kinases such as pp125FAK, in FcgammaR signaling is likely. Using the murine macrophage cell line J774, we demonstrate that FcgammaRII-RIII cross-linking induces a time- and dose-dependent increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion kinase pp125FAK that correlates with an increase in its catalytic activity. Interestingly enough, pp125FAK activation results in its association both to the FcgammaRII-III and to p60Src. The results presented here define a novel-signaling pathway likely to be important in low affinity FcgammaRII-III mediated phagocytosis.

Abstract
The process of engulfing a foreign particle - phagocytosis - is of fundamental importance for a wide diversity of organisms. From simple unicellular organisms that use phagocytosis to obtain their next meal, to complex metazoans in which phagocytic cells represent an essential branch of the immune system, evolution has armed cells with a fantastic repertoire of molecules that serve to bring about this complex event. Regardless of the organism or specific molecules concerned, however, all phagocytic processes are driven by a finely controlled rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. A variety of signals can converge to locally reorganise the actin cytoskeleton at a phagosome, and there are significant similarities and differences between different organisms and between different engulfment processes within the same organism. Recent advances have demonstrated the complexity of phagocytic signalling, such as the involvement of phosphoinostide lipids and multicomponent signalling complexes in transducing signals from phagocytic receptors to the cytoskeleton. Similarly, a wide diversity of ‘effector molecules’ are now implicated in actin-remodelling downstream of these receptors.

Abstract
Coronin, a 57 kDa actin binding protein elutes with an apparent molecular mass of 400-600 kDa from gel filtration columns. This fraction is not unrelated to the reported 200 kDa complex where coronin is associated with phox proteins of the NADPH-oxidase. Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) solubilizes coronin from the 400-600 kDa complex, thus constitutive active PI 3-kinase is sufficient to disrupt the complex, whereas wortmannin stabilizes it. Conversely, the phox protein associated pool of coronin is PI 3-kinase independent. During phagocytosis coronin is recruited together with PI 3-kinase to membranes of nascent and early phagosomes co-localizing with the actin cytoskeleton, confirming that coronin contributes to phagocytosis.

Abstract
Syk is a protein-tyrosine kinase that is essential for B-lymphocyte development and B-cell signaling. Syk phosphorylates tubulin on tyrosine both in vitro and in intact lymphocytes. Here we show that (alpha)-tubulin present within the cytoskeletal microtubule network was phosphorylated in a Syk-dependent manner following the activation of B-cells by engagement of the B-cell antigen receptor or by treatment with the phosphotyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, pervanadate. Immunofluorescence staining of microtubule cytoskeletons and western blotting studies with antibodies to phosphotyrosine confirmed the phosphorylation of polymerized tubulin in Syk-expressing, but not Syk-deficient, cells. At low concentrations of pervanadate, centrosomes appeared to be preferentially tyrosine-phosphorylated. Tubulin phosphorylated to a high stoichiometry on tyrosine assembled into microtubules in vitro, and preassembled microtubules were also phosphorylated by Syk kinase in vitro. Thus, Syk has the capacity to interact with microtubule networks within the B-lymphocyte and catalyzes the phosphorylation of the (alpha)-tubulin subunit. Syk-dependent phosphorylation of microtubules may affect the ability of the microtubule cytoskeleton to serve as a platform upon which signaling complexes are assembled.

Abstract
In the capping of cell-surface receptors two stages can be distinguished: 1) clustering of the receptors (patching) induced by cross-linking with specific antibodies and 2) subsequent assembly of patches into a cap which is driven by the actin-based cytoskeleton. We found that patching of Fcgamma receptor II in U937 cells was correlated with tyrosine phosphorylation of certain proteins, most prominently those of 130, 110, 75 and 28 kDa. The phosphotyrosine-bearing proteins were accumulated at the receptor patches. Formation of the receptor caps was coincident with dephosphorylation of these proteins. Inhibition of protein tyrosine kinases with herbimycin A and genistein attenuated the protein tyrosine hyperphosphorylation and blocked capping in a dose-dependent manner. Phenylarsine oxide and pervanadate, inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatases, also suppressed capping of Fcgamma receptor II in a concentration-dependent fashion. Simultaneously, tyrosine hyperphosphorylation of proteins occurred. In the presence of the tyrosine kinase and phosphatase inhibitors the receptors were arrested at the patching stage. In contrast, okadaic acid, a serine/threonine phosphatase blocker, did not affect assembly of the receptor caps. The inhibitory effect of phenylarsine oxide was rapidly reversed by dithiols, 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanoldithiol and dithiotreitol, and was coincident with dephosphorylation of protein tyrosine residues. Extensive washing of pervanadate-exposed cells also resulted in progressive restoration of the cap assembly. Using streptolysin O-permeabilized cells we confirmed regulatory function played by dephosphorylation of tyrosine residues in capping of Fcgamma receptor II. Exogenous phosphatases, applied to permeabilized cells in which activity of endogenous tyrosine phosphatases was blocked, evoked dephosphorylation of protein tyrosine residues that was accompanied by recovery of capping ability in the cells.

Abstract
Brucella spp. are facultative, intracellular pathogenic bacteria that cause brucellosis, a zoonosis affecting mammalian species. Brucella entry into myelomonocytic cell lines is highly enhanced by opsonization. Few studies have been undertaken to unravel the first interactions between these bacteria and their host cells. This paper deals with early events following contact of Brucella suis with the J-774A.1 phagocytic cell line and differentiated monocytes. Phagocytic uptake of bacteria was documented under a fluorescence microscope using GFP-expressing B. suis. Unlike entry in the J-774A. 1 cell line, non-opsonized Brucella entered differentiated human monocytes as efficiently as opsonized bacteria. However, following 1 h infections, a mean of only three bacteria were phagocytized and the whole monocyte population was only infected after a 4 h infection. Contact of non-opsonized Brucella with phagocytes did not induce marked structural changes at the cell surface, as revealed by scanning electron microscopy. Contact of Brucella (opsonized or not) elicited transient local recruitment of F-actin, revealed by phalloidin labelling, and of annexin I-associated structures, revealed by immunofluorescence staining. Finally, bacteria appeared to be rapidly internalized in monocytes once they had adhered to the cell surface. A low percentage of infected cells and few adhered and/or internalized bacteria following short-term infections could have resulted either from the fact that there were few sites of entry or the weak bacterial initial interactions with the host-cell membrane or the bacterial receptor.

Abstract
Plasma membrane receptors can undergo translocation in the plane of plasma membrane after binding of polyvalent ligands. Ligand/receptor clusters, named patches, can collect into a polar cap, presumably due to their association with the submembrane actin-based cytoskeleton. We found that the assembly of Fcgamma receptor II caps in human monocytic U937 cells was accompanied by the accumulation of spectrin and actin in the cap region. Permeabilization of cells with streptolysin O rendered capping sensitive to inhibition by phalloidin, an actin filament stabilizing agent. A rabbit antibody directed against the chicken erythrocyte alpha-subunit of spectrin, an actin- and membrane-binding protein, also blocked the capping in a dose dependent manner. The inhibition reached approximately 50% after 20 minutes of cell treatment with the antibody. Anti-alpha-spectrin targeted specifically its submembrane antigen, in contrast to unspecific antibodies which remained dispersed in the cell interior and had no influence on the cap assembly. Our results indicate an active engagement of spectrin and actin filaments in the capping of Fcgamma receptor II.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is an uptake of large particles governed by the actin-based cytoskeleton. Binding of particles to specific cell surface receptors is the first step of phagocytosis. In higher Eucaryota, the receptors able to mediate phagocytosis are expressed almost exclusively in macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes, conferring immunodefence properties to these cells. Receptor clustering is thought to occur upon particle binding, that in turn generates a phagocytic signal. Several pathways of phagocytic signal transduction have been identified, including the activation of tyrosine kinases and (or) serine/threonine kinase C in pivotal roles. Kinase activation leads to phosphorylation of the receptors and other proteins, recruited at the sites of phagocytosis. Monomeric GTPases of the Rho and ARF families are likely to be engaged downstream of activated receptors. The GTPases, in cooperation with phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase lipid modifying enzymes, can modulate locally the assembly of the submembranous actin filament system leading to particle internalization.

Abstract
Mouse macrophage cell lines such as J774 express Fc receptors for IgG2a immune complexes, which upon binding of the proper ligand, trigger several signal transduction pathways. A surface to nucleus signaling through these receptors has been demonstrated. We describe here the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and an increase in the binding of the activator protein 1 (AP-1) to DNA upon receptor stimulation. The described effects are only partially blocked by inhibitors of the Ca2+/diacylglycerol-dependent protein kinase (PKC), suggesting that differential signaling pathways are activated upon receptor cross-linking and that they converge at or above the MAPK level. These results pave the way to our understanding of Fc gammaR cross-linking induced gene expression regulation.
