Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) is a highly versatile intracellular messenger that regulates several cellular processes. Although it is unclear how a single-second messenger coordinates various effects within a cell, there is growing evidence that spatial patterns of Ca2+ signals play an essential role in determining their specificity. Ca2+ signaling patterns can differ in various cell regions, and Ca2+ signals in the nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments have been observed to occur independently. The initiation and function of Ca2+ signaling within the nucleus are not yet fully understood. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) induce Ca2+ signaling resulting from phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP3) formation within the nucleus. This signaling mechanism may be responsible for the effects of specific growth factors on cell proliferation and gene transcription. This review highlights the recent advances in RTK trafficking to the nucleus and explains how these receptors initiate nuclear calcium signaling.

Rah SY, Joe Y, Park J, Ryter SW, Park C, Chung HT, Kim UH. CD38/ADP-ribose/TRPM2-mediated nuclear Ca 2+ signaling is essential for hepatic gluconeogenesis in fasting and diabetes. Exp Mol Med 2023:10.1038/s12276-023-01034-9.

Abstract
Hepatic glucose production by glucagon is crucial for glucose homeostasis during fasting, yet the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely delineated. Although CD38 has been detected in the nucleus, its function in this compartment is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that nuclear CD38 (nCD38) controls glucagon-induced gluconeogenesis in primary hepatocytes and liver in a manner distinct from CD38 occurring in the cytoplasm and lysosomal compartments. We found that the localization of CD38 in the nucleus is required for glucose production by glucagon and that nCD38 activation requires NAD+ supplied by PKCδ-phosphorylated connexin 43. In fasting and diabetes, nCD38 promotes sustained Ca2+ signals via transient receptor potential melastatin 2 (TRPM2) activation by ADP-ribose, which enhances the transcription of glucose-6 phosphatase and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1. These findings shed light on the role of nCD38 in glucagon-induced gluconeogenesis and provide insight into nuclear Ca2+ signals that mediate the transcription of key genes in gluconeogenesis under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Phospholipase Cβ (PLCβ) is the main effector of the Gq family of heterotrimeric G proteins that transduces signals from hormones and neurotransmitters into Ca2+ signals. While PLCβ is critical for Ca2+ responses, recent studies have suggested that PLCβ has additional roles independent of its lipase activity. These novel functions are carried out by a cytosolic population of PLCβ that binds and inhibits the component 3 promoter of RNA-induced silencing complex (C3PO) to impact cytosolic RNA populations. Additionally, cytosolic PLCβ binds to stress granule proteins, keeping them dispersed and thus inhibiting stress granule formation. Upon activation of the Gα subunit of Gq (Gαq), cytosolic PLCβ relocalizes to the membrane, releasing C3PO and stress granule proteins, which in turn promotes activation of C3PO and RNA processing, as well as sequestration of specific transcripts into newly formed stress granules. As highlighted in this Cell Science at a Glance and the accompanying poster, the link between Gαq signaling, increased intracellular Ca2+ and changes in RNA processing impacts neuronal cell differentiation and may also affect neuronal development and dysfunction.

Abstract
Purpose Typical genes for the treatment and diagnosis of high-grade chondrosarcoma are still in need. Our study aimed to explore the PLCD1 function in chondrosarcoma for further treatment. Materials and Methods Our study collected the information of 49 patients in our department. The PLCD1 expression in our cohort was detected and was compared with the TCGA database. PLCD1 knockdown and overexpression cell lines were established stably. Cell viability assay and colony formation assay were performed for cell proliferation. Flow cytometry analysis was performed for cell cycle and apoptosis. Western blotting was performed for PLCD1-related protein expression. Animal xenografts were established to verify the effect of PLCD1 in high-grade chondrosarcoma. Results Compared with the TCGA database, the relation between PLCD1 expression and the malignancy of chondrosarcoma was demonstrated. A lower PLCD1 expression was detected mainly in high-grade chondrosarcoma. PLCD1 overexpression in high-grade chondrosarcoma suppressed CDKs/cyclins and induced DNA damage causing cell cycle blocking and apoptosis. Antitumor effect of PLCD1 overexpression was verified in vivo. Conclusion Lower PLCD1 was expressed in high-grade chondrosarcoma. Overexpressed PLCD1-induced DNA damage caused cell cycle blocking and apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. PLCD1 could be a novel target in high-grade chondrosarcoma for further drug development.

Abstract
Ca2+ is a highly versatile intracellular signal that regulates many biological processes such as cell death and proliferation. Broad Ca2+-signaling machinery is used to assemble signaling systems with a precise spatial and temporal resolution to achieve this versatility. Ca2+-signaling components can be organized in different regions of the cell and local increases in Ca2+ within the nucleus can regulate different cellular functions from the increases in cytosolic Ca2+. However, the mechanisms and pathways that promote localized increases in Ca2+ levels in the nucleus are still under investigation. This review presents evidence that the nucleus has its own Ca2+ stores and signaling machinery, which modulate processes such as cell proliferation and tumor growth. We focus on what is known about the functions of nuclear Phospholipase C (PLC) in the generation of nuclear Ca2+ transients that are involved in cell proliferation.

Abstract
A reliable method for purifying envelope-stripped nuclei from immortalized murine embryonic fibroblasts (iMEFs) was established. Quantitative profiling of the glycerophospholipids (GPLs) in envelope-free iMEF nuclei yields several conclusions. First, we find the endonuclear glycerophospholipidome differs from that of bulk membranes, and phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) and phosphatidylethanolamine species are the most abundant endonuclear GPLs by mass. By contrast, phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) represents a minor species. We also find only a slight enrichment of saturated versus unsaturated GPL species in iMEF endonuclear fractions. Moreover, much lower values for GPL mass were measured in the iMEF nuclear matrix than those reported for envelope-stripped IMF-32 nuclei. The collective results indicate that the nuclear matrix in these cells is a GPL-poor environment where GPL occupies only approximately 0.1% of the total nuclear matrix volume. This value suggests GPL accommodation in this compartment can be satisfied by binding to resident proteins. Finally, we find no significant role for the PtdIns/PtdCho-transfer protein, PITPα, in shuttling PtdIns into the iMEF nuclear matrix.

Abstract
Myocardial Ca(2+) overload induced by ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) is a major element of myocardial dysfunction in heart failure. Phospholipase C (PLC) plays important roles in the regulation of the phosphoinositol pathway and Ca(2+) homeostasis in various types of cells. Here, we investigated the protective role of PLCδ1 against myocardial I/R injury through the regulation of Ca(2+) homeostasis. To investigate its role, PLCδ1 was fused to Hph1, a cell-permeable protein transduction domain (PTD), and treated into rat neonatal cardiomyocytes and rat hearts under respective hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) and ischemia-reperfusion conditions. Treatment with Hph1-PLCδ1 significantly inhibited intracellular Ca(2+) overload, reactive oxygen species generation, mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, and mitochondrial membrane potential elevation in H/R neonatal cardiomyocytes, resulting in the inhibition of apoptosis. Intravenous injections of Hph1-PLCδ1 in rats with I/R-injured myocardium caused significant reductions in infarct size and apoptosis and also improved systolic and diastolic cardiac functioning. Furthermore, a small ions profile obtained using time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry showed that treatment with Hph1-PLCδ1 leads to significant recovery of calcium-related ions toward normal levels in I/R-injured myocardium. These results suggest that Hph1-PLCδ1 may manifest as a promising cardioprotective drug due to its inhibition of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in cells suffering from I/R injury.

Abstract
Phospholipase C (PLC) is a key enzyme in phosphoinositide turnover, and in the regulation of various cellular events. Among the 13 PLC isozymes, PLCδ1 and PLCδ3 share a high sequence homology, and similar tissue distribution. Recent studies with genetically manipulated mice have clarified the importance of these PLC isozymes in a number of tissues. PLCδ1 is required for maintenance of homeostasis in skin and metabolic tissues, while PLCδ3 regulates microvilli formation in enterocytes and the radial migration of neurons in the cerebral cortex of the developing brain. Furthermore, simultaneous loss of PLCδ1 and PLCδ3 in mice causes placental vascular defects, leading to embryonic lethality. Taken together, PLCδ1 and PLCδ3 have unique and redundant roles in various tissues.

Abstract
Two isoforms of inositide-dependent phospholipase C β1 (PI-PLCβ1) are generated by alternative splicing (PLCβ1a and PLCβ1b). Both isoforms are present within the nucleus, but in contrast to PLCβ1a, the vast majority of PLCβ1b is nuclear. In mouse erythroid leukemia cells, PI-PLCβ1 is involved in the regulation of cell division and the balance between cell proliferation and differentiation. It has been demonstrated that nuclear localization is crucial for the enzymatic function of PI-PLCβ1, although the mechanism by which this nuclear import occurs has never been fully characterized. The aim of this study was to characterize both the mechanism of nuclear localization and the molecular function of nuclear PI-PLCβ1 by identifying its interactome in Friend's erythroleukemia isolated nuclei, utilizing a procedure that coupled immuno-affinity purification with tandem mass spectrometry analysis. Using this procedure, 160 proteins were demonstrated to be in association with PI-PLCβ1b, some of which have been previously characterized, such as the splicing factor SRp20 (Srsf3) and Lamin B (Lmnb1). Co-immunoprecipitation analysis of selected proteins confirmed the data obtained via mass spectrometry. Of particular interest was the identification of the nuclear import proteins Kpna2, Kpna4, Kpnb1, Ran, and Rangap1, as well as factors involved in hematological malignancies and several anti-apoptotic proteins. These data give new insight into possible mechanisms of nuclear trafficking and functioning of this critical signaling molecule.

Abstract
Morphine belongs among the most commonly used opioids in medical practice due to its strong analgesic effects. However, sustained administration of morphine leads to the development of tolerance and dependence and may cause long-lasting alterations in nervous tissue. Although proteomic approaches enabled to reveal changes in multiple gene expression in the brain as a consequence of morphine treatment, there is lack of information about the effect of this drug on heart tissue. Here we studied the effect of 10-day morphine exposure and subsequent drug withdrawal (3 or 6 days) on the rat heart proteome. Using the iTRAQ technique, we identified 541 proteins in the cytosol, 595 proteins in the plasma membrane-enriched fraction and 538 proteins in the mitochondria-enriched fraction derived from the left ventricles. Altogether, the expression levels of 237 proteins were altered by morphine treatment or withdrawal. The majority of changes (58 proteins) occurred in the cytosol after a 3-day abstinence period. Significant alterations were found in the expression of heat shock proteins (HSP27, α-B crystallin, HSP70, HSP10 and HSP60), whose levels were markedly up-regulated after morphine treatment or withdrawal. Besides that morphine exposure up-regulated MAPK p38 (isoform CRA_b) which is a well-known up-stream mediator of phosphorylation and activation of HSP27 and α-B crystallin. Whereas there were no alterations in the levels of proteins involved in oxidative stress, several changes were determined in the levels of pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins. These data provide a complex view on quantitative changes in the cardiac proteome induced by morphine treatment or withdrawal and demonstrate great sensitivity of this organ to morphine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inositol 1,4,5trisphosphate (IP(3)) and diacylglycerol (DAG) are important intracellular signalling molecules in various tissues. They are generated by the phospholipase C family of enzymes, of which phospholipase C delta (PLCD) forms one class. Studies with functional inactivation of Plcd isozyme encoding genes in mice have revealed that loss of both Plcd1 and Plcd3 causes early embryonic death. Inactivation of Plcd1 alone causes loss of hair (alopecia), whereas inactivation of Plcd3 alone has no apparent phenotypic effect. To investigate a possible synergy of Plcd1 and Plcd3 in postnatal mice, novel mutations of these genes compatible with life after birth need to be found. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We characterise a novel mouse mutant with a spontaneously arisen mutation in Plcd3 (Plcd3(mNab)) that resulted from the insertion of an intracisternal A particle (IAP) into intron 2 of the Plcd3 gene. This mutation leads to the predominant expression of a truncated PLCD3 protein lacking the N-terminal PH domain. C3H mice that carry one or two mutant Plcd3(mNab) alleles are phenotypically normal. However, the presence of one Plcd3(mNab) allele exacerbates the alopecia caused by the loss of functional Plcd1 in Del(9)olt1Pas mutant mice with respect to the number of hair follicles affected and the body region involved. Mice double homozygous for both the Del(9)olt1Pas and the Plcd3(mNab) mutations survive for several weeks and exhibit total alopecia associated with fragile hair shafts showing altered expression of some structural genes and shortened phases of proliferation in hair follicle matrix cells. CONCLUSIONS/SIGNIFICANCE The Plcd3(mNab) mutation is a novel hypomorphic mutation of Plcd3. Our investigations suggest that Plcd1 and Plcd3 have synergistic effects on the murine hair follicle in specific regions of the body surface.

Abstract
The MA domain of the retroviral Gag protein mediates interactions with the plasma membrane, which is the site of productive virus release. HIV-1 MA has a phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P₂] binding pocket; depletion of this phospholipid from the plasma membrane compromises Gag membrane association and virus budding. We used multiple methods to examine the possible role of PI(4,5)P₂ in Gag-membrane interaction of the alpharetrovirus Rous sarcoma virus (RSV). In contrast to HIV-1, which was tested in parallel, neither membrane localization of RSV Gag-GFP nor release of virus-like particles was affected by phosphatase-mediated depletion of PI(4,5)P₂ in transfected avian cells. In liposome flotation experiments, RSV Gag required acidic lipids for binding but showed no specificity for PI(4,5)P₂. Mono-, di-, and triphosphorylated phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) species as well as high concentrations of phosphatidylserine (PS) supported similar levels of flotation. A mutation that increases the overall charge of RSV MA also enhanced Gag membrane binding. Contrary to previous reports, we found that high concentrations of PS, in the absence of PIPs, also strongly promoted HIV-1 Gag flotation. Taken together, we interpret these results to mean that RSV Gag membrane association is driven by electrostatic interactions and not by any specific association with PI(4,5)P₂.

Abstract
Ca(2+) signalling is important for controlling gene transcription. Changes of the cytosolic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](C)) may promote migration of transcription factors or transcriptional regulators to the nucleus. Changes of the nucleoplasmic Ca(2+) ([Ca(2+)](N)) can also regulate directly gene expression. [Ca(2+)](N) may change by propagation of [Ca(2+)](C) changes through the nuclear envelope or by direct release of Ca(2+) inside the nucleus. In the last case nuclear and cytosolic signalling can be dissociated. Phosphatidylinositol bisphosphate, phospholipase C and cyclic ADP-ribosyl cyclase are present inside the nucleus. Inositol trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)R) and ryanodine receptors (RyR) have also been found in the nucleus and can be activated by agonists. Furthermore, nuclear location of the synthesizing enzymes and receptors may be atypical, not associated to the nuclear envelope or other membranes. The possible role of nuclear subdomains such as speckles, nucleoplasmic reticulum, multi-macromolecular complexes and nuclear nanovesicles is discussed.

Abstract
An important mechanism in apoptotic regulation is changes in the subcellular distribution of pro- and anti-apoptotic proteins. Among the proteins that change in their localization and may promote apoptosis are nuclear proteins. Several of these nuclear proteins such as p53, Nur77, histone H1.2, and nucleophosmin were reported to accumulate in the cytosol and/or mitochondria and to promote the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway in response to apoptotic stressors. In this review, we will discuss the functions of these and other nuclear proteins in promoting the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, the mechanisms that regulate their accumulation in the cytosol and/or mitochondria and the potential role of Bax and Bak in this process. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Mitochondria: the deadly organelle.

Abstract
Injection of mammalian sperm extracts or cRNA of the sperm-specific phospholipase C zeta 1 (PLCZ1) has been shown to trigger repetitive oscillations in the concentration of free calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)), leading to oocyte activation and embryo development in all mammals studied to date. While PLCZ1 has cross-species activity, it has also been observed that species-specific differences may exist in the frequency and pattern of the resulting [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations following PLCZ1 cRNA injection into oocytes of different species. Accordingly, we used a crossover design strategy to directly investigate the activity of murine and bovine PLCZ1 in both murine and bovine oocytes. In murine oocytes, injection of murine Plcz1 cRNA induced [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations at 10-fold lower concentrations than bovine PLCZ1, although in bovine oocytes bovine PLCZ1 was more effective than murine Plcz1 at inducing [Ca(2+)](i) oscillations. Investigation of ITPR1 (IP(3)R1) down-regulation in bovine oocytes by PLCZ1 cRNA also showed that bovine PLCZ1 was more active in homologous oocytes. To determine whether these PLCZs exhibited similar cellular distribution, Venus-tagged PLCZ1 cRNA was injected into oocytes, and PLCZ1 was overexpressed. Bovine PLCZ1 failed to accumulate in the pronucleus (PN) of bovine or murine zygotes, despite possessing a putative nuclear localization signal. Conversely, murine PLCZ1 accumulated in the PN of both murine and bovine zygotes. These results demonstrate that murine PLCZ1 and bovine PLCZ1 possess species-specific differences in activity and suggest potential differences in the mode of action of the protein between the two species. Variation in sperm PLCZ1 protein content among species, along with oocyte-specific differences in the localization and availability of PLCZ1 substrates, may further contribute to optimize the activation stimulus to enhance embryo development.

Abstract
Cell death requires coordinated intracellular signalling before disassembly of cell architecture by degradative enzymes. Although the death signalling cascades that involve the mitochondria, the ER and the plasma membrane have been extensively characterized, only a handful of studies have examined the functional and structural alterations of the nuclear pore complex (NPC) during neuronal death. Here, we show that during excitotoxic neuronal degeneration calpains redistributed across the nuclear envelope and mediated the degradation of NPC components causing altered permeability of the nuclear membrane. In primary dissociated neurons, simultaneous recording of cytosolic [Ca(2+)] and localization of fluorescent proteins showed that the onset of Ca(2+) overload signalled a progressive increase in the diffusion of small reporter molecules across the nuclear envelope. Later, calpain-mediated changes in nuclear pore permeability allowed accumulation of large proteins in the nucleus. Further, in a model of excitotoxic neuronal degeneration in Caenorhabditis elegans, we found similar nuclear changes and redistribution of fluorescent probes across the nuclear membrane in dying neurons. Our findings strongly suggest that increased leakiness of the nuclear barrier affects nucleocytoplasmic transport, alters the localization of proteins across the nuclear envelope and it is likely to be involved in Ca(2+)-dependent cell death, including ischemic neuronal demise.

Abstract
Over the past 15 years or so, numerous studies have sought to characterise how nuclear calcium (Ca2+) signals are generated and reversed, and to understand how events that occur in the nucleoplasm influence cellular Ca2+ activity, and vice versa. In this Commentary, we describe mechanisms of nuclear Ca2+ signalling and discuss what is known about the origin and physiological significance of nuclear Ca2+ transients. In particular, we focus on the idea that the nucleus has an autonomous Ca2+ signalling system that can generate its own Ca2+ transients that modulate processes such as gene transcription. We also discuss the role of nuclear pores and the nuclear envelope in controlling ion flux into the nucleoplasm.

Phospholipase C delta 1 regulates cell proliferation and cell-cycle progression from G1- to S-phase by control of cyclin E-CDK2 activity. Biochem J 2008; 415:439-48.

Abstract
In the present study, we examined the role of PLC delta 1 (phospholipase C delta 1) in the regulation of cellular proliferation. We demonstrate that RNAi (RNA interference)-mediated knockdown of endogenous PLC delta 1, but not PLC beta 3 or PLC epsilon, induces a proliferation defect in Rat-1 and NIH 3T3 fibroblasts. The decreased proliferation was not due to an induction of apoptosis or senescence, but was associated with an approx. 60% inhibition of [(3)H]thymidine incorporation. Analysis of the cell cycle with BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine)/propidium iodide-labelled FACS (fluorescence-activated cell sorting) demonstrated an accumulation of cells in G(0)/G(1)-phase and a corresponding decrease in cells in S-phase. Further examination of the cell cycle after synchronization by serum-starvation demonstrated normal movement through G(1)-phase but delayed entry into S-phase. Consistent with these findings, G(1) cyclin (D2 and D3) and CDK4 (cyclin-dependent kinase 4) levels and associated kinase activity were not affected. However, cyclin E-associated CDK2 activity, responsible for G(1)-to-S-phase progression, was inhibited. This decreased activity was accompanied by unchanged CDK2 protein levels and paradoxically elevated cyclin E and cyclin E-associated CDK2 levels, suggesting inhibition of the cyclin E-CDK2 complex. This inhibition was not due to altered stimulatory or inhibitory phosphorylation of CDK2. However, p27, a Cip/Kip family CKI (CDK inhibitor)-binding partner, was elevated and showed increased association with CDK2 in PLC delta 1-knockdown cells. The result of the present study demonstrate a novel and critical role for PLC delta 1 in cell-cycle progression from G(1)-to-S-phase through regulation of cyclin E-CDK2 activity and p27 levels.

Abstract
The recessive mutation oligotriche (olt) affects the coat and male fertility in the mouse. In homozygous (olt/olt) mutants, the coat is sparse, most notably in the inguinal and medial femoral region. In these regions, almost all hair shafts are bent and distorted in their course through the dermis and rarely penetrate the epidermis because the hair cortex is not fully keratinized. During hair follicle morphogenesis, mutant hair follicles exit from anagen one day before those of normal littermates and show a prolongation of the catagen stage. The oligotriche (olt) locus was mapped to distal chromosome 9 within a 5-Mbp interval distal to D9Mit279. Analysis of candidate gene expression revealed that olt/olt mutant mice do not express functional phospholipase C delta 1 (Plcd1) mRNA. This deficiency is the consequence of a 234-kbp deletion involving not only the Plcd1 locus but also the chromosomal segment harboring the genes Vill (villin-like), Dlec1 (deleted in lung and esophageal cancer 1), Acaa1b (acetyl-Coenzyme A acyltransferase 1B, synonym thiolase B), and parts of the genes Ctdspl (carboxy-terminal domain RNA polymerase II polypeptide A small phosphatase-like) and Slc22a14 (solute carrier family 22 member 14). Offspring of olt/olt females, mated with Plcd1 ( -/- ) knockout males, exhibit coat defects similar to those observed in homozygous olt/olt mutant mice but the spermiogenesis in male offspring is normal. We conclude that the 234-kbp deletion from chromosome 9 harbors a gene involved in spermiogenesis and we propose that the oligotriche mutant be used as a model for the study of the putative tumor suppressor genes Dlec1, Ctdspl, and Vill. We also suggest that the oligotriche locus be named Del(9Ctdspl-Slc22a14)1Pas.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the primary site for folding and quality control for proteins destined to the cell surface and intracellular organelles. A variety of cellular insults alter ER homeostasis to disrupt protein folding, cause the accumulation of misfolded proteins, and activate an autophagic response. However, the molecular signaling pathways required for ER stress-induced autophagy are largely unknown. Recently, we discovered that a novel-type protein kinase C family member (PKCtheta) is required for ER stress-induced autophagy. We show that ER stress, in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, induces PKCtheta phosphorylation within the activation loop and localization with LC3-II in punctate cytoplasmic structures. Pharmacological inhibition, siRNA-mediated knockdown, or transdominant-negative mutant expression of PKCtheta block the ER stress-induced autophagic response. PKCtheta activation is not required for autophagy induced by amino acid starvation, and PKCtheta activation in response to ER stress does not require either the mTOR kinase or the unfolded protein response signaling pathways. Herein, we review and discuss the significance of these findings with respect to regulation of autophagy in response to ER stress.

Abstract
Recently we have shown that the metabotropic glutamate 5 (mGlu5) receptor can be expressed on nuclear membranes of heterologous cells or endogenously on striatal neurons where it can mediate nuclear Ca2+ changes. Here, pharmacological, optical, and genetic techniques were used to show that upon activation, nuclear mGlu5 receptors generate nuclear inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) in situ. Specifically, expression of an mGlu5 F767S mutant in HEK293 cells that blocks Gq/11 coupling or introduction of a dominant negative Galphaq construct in striatal neurons prevented nuclear Ca2+ changes following receptor activation. These data indicate that nuclear mGlu5 receptors couple to Gq/11 to mobilize nuclear Ca2+. Nuclear mGlu5-mediated Ca2+ responses could also be blocked by the phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor, U73122, the phosphatidylinositol (PI) PLC inhibitor 1-O-octadecyl-2-O-methyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylcholine (ET-18-OCH3), or by using small interfering RNA targeted against PLCbeta1 demonstrating that PI-PLC is involved. Direct assessment of inositol phosphate production using a PIP2/IP3 "biosensor" revealed for the first time that IP3 can be generated in the nucleus following activation of nuclear mGlu5 receptors. Finally, both IP3 and ryanodine receptor blockers prevented nuclear mGlu5-mediated increases in intranuclear Ca2+. Collectively, this study shows that like plasma membrane receptors, activated nuclear mGlu5 receptors couple to Gq/11 and PLC to generate IP3-mediated release of Ca2+ from Ca2+-release channels in the nucleus. Thus the nucleus can function as an autonomous organelle independent of signals originating in the cytoplasm, and nuclear mGlu5 receptors play a dynamic role in mobilizing Ca2+ in a specific, localized fashion.

Abstract
Inositide signaling pathways represent a multifaceted ensemble of cellular switches capable of regulating a number of processes, for example, intracellular calcium release, membrane trafficking, chemotaxis, ion channel activity and several nuclear functions. Over 30 inositide messengers are found in eukaryotic cells that may be grouped into two classes: (1) inositol lipids, phosphatidylinositols or phosphoinositides (PIPs) and (2) water-soluble inositol polyphosphates (IPs). This review will focus on inositol polyphosphate kinases (IPK) and inositol pyrophosphate synthases (IPS) responsible for the cellular production of IP(4), IP(5) IP(6) and PP-IPs. Of interest, IPK and IPS proteins localize, in part, within the nucleus and their activities are necessary for proper regulation of gene expression, mRNA export, DNA repair and telomere maintenance. The breadth of nuclear processes regulated and the evolutionary conservation of the genes involved in their synthesis have sparked renewed interest in inositide messengers derived from sequential phosphorylation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate.

Abstract
The delta family phosphoinositide (PI)-specific phospholipase C (PLC) are most fundamental forms of eukaryotic PI-PLCs. Despite the presence of lipid targeting domains such as the PH domain and C2 domain, the isoforms are also found in the cytoplasm and nucleus as well as at the plasma membrane. The isoforms have sequences or regions that can serve as a nuclear localization signal (NLS) and a nuclear export signal (NES). Their intracellular localization differs from one isoform to another, presumably due to the difference in the transport equilibrium balanced by the strength of the two signals of each isoform. Even for a particular isoform, its intracellular localization seems to vary during the cell cycle. As an example, PLCdelta(1), which is generally found at the plasma membrane and in the cytoplasm of quiescent cells, localizes to discrete nuclear structures in the G(1)/S boundary of the cell cycle. This may be at least partly due to an increase in intracellular Ca(2+), since Ca(2+) facilitates the formation of a nuclear transport complex comprised of PLCdelta(1) and importin beta1, a carrier molecule for the nuclear import. PLCdelta(1) as well as PLCdelta(4) may play a pivotal role in controlling the initiation of DNA synthesis in S phase. Spatio-temporal changes in the levels of PtdIns(4,5)P(2) seem to be another major determinant for the localization and regulation of the delta isoforms. High nuclear PtdIns(4,5)P(2) levels are associated with the G(1)/S phases. After entering M phase, PtdIns(4,5)P(2) synthesis at sites of cell division occurs and PLCs seem to localize to the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis. Coordinated translocation of PLCs with the cell cycle or with stress responses may result in changes in intra-nuclear environments and local membrane architectures that modulate proliferation and differentiation. In this review, recent findings regarding the molecular machineries and mechanisms of the nucleocytoplasmic shuttling as well as roles in the cell cycle progression of the delta isoforms of PLC will be discussed.
