Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus forms a multimolecular complex of integrins (alphaVbeta5, alphaVbeta3, and alpha3beta1) and CD98-xCT during infection of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells, and CD98-xCT is essential for the postentry stage of infection.

Abstract
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) interacts with cell surface heparan sulfate (HS) and alpha3beta1 integrin during the early stages of infection of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC-d) and human foreskin fibroblasts (HFF), and these interactions are followed by virus entry overlapping with the induction of preexisting host cell signal pathways. KSHV also utilizes the amino acid transporter protein xCT for infection of adherent cells, and the xCT molecule is part of the cell surface heterodimeric membrane glycoprotein CD98 (4F2 antigen) complex known to interact with alpha3beta1 and alphaVbeta3 integrins. KSHV gB mediates adhesion of HMVEC-d, CV-1, and HT-1080 cells and HFF via its RGD sequence. Anti-alphaV and -beta1 integrin antibodies inhibited the cell adhesion mediated by KSHV-gB. Variable levels of neutralization of HMVEC-d and HFF infection were observed with antibodies against alphaVbeta3 and alphaVbeta5 integrins. Similarly, variable levels of inhibition of virus entry into adherent HMVEC-d, 293 and Vero cells, and HFF was observed by preincubating virus with soluble alpha3beta1, alphaVbeta3, and alphaVbeta5 integrins, and cumulative inhibition was observed with a combination of integrins. We were unable to infect HT1080 cells. Virus binding and DNA internalization studies suggest that alphaVbeta3 and alphaVbeta5 integrins also play roles in KSHV entry. We observed time-dependent temporal KSHV interactions with HMVEC-d integrins and CD98/xCT with three different patterns of association and dissociation. Integrin alphaVbeta5 interaction with CD98/xCT predominantly occurred by 1 min postinfection (p.i.) and dissociated at 10 min p.i., whereas alpha3beta1-CD98/xCT interaction was maximal at 10 min p.i. and dissociated at 30 min p.i., and alphaVbeta3-CD98/xCT interaction was maximal at 10 min p.i. and remained at the observed 30 min p.i. Fluorescence microscopy also showed a similar time-dependent interaction of alphaVbeta5-CD98. Confocal-microscopy studies confirmed the association of CD98/xCT with alpha3beta1 and KSHV. Preincubation of KSHV with soluble heparin and alpha3beta1 significantly inhibited this association, suggesting that the first contact with HS and integrin is an essential element in subsequent CD98-xCT interactions. Anti-CD98 and xCT antibodies did not block virus binding and entry and nuclear delivery of viral DNA; however, viral-gene expression was significantly inhibited, suggesting that CD98-xCT play roles in the post-entry stage of infection, possibly in mediating signal cascades essential for viral-gene expression. Together, these studies suggest that KSHV interacts with functionally related integrins (alphaVbeta3, alpha3beta1, and alphaVbeta5) and CD98/xCT molecules in a temporal fashion to form a multimolecular complex during the early stages of endothelial cell infection, probably mediating multiple roles in entry, signal transduction, and viral-gene expression.

Abstract
BacterioMatch Two-Hybrid System (Stratagene) was applied in order to identify potential human TIMAP interaction proteins in the lung. TIMAP highly expressed in endothelial cells and may be involved in endothelial cytoskeletal and barrier regulation. Seven TIMAP interacting partner proteins were identified. Four of identified proteins: cystein and glycine-rich protein 1, eukaryotic translation elongation factor 2, U5 snRNP-specific protein 116 kD, and solute carrier family 3 member 2 are involved in actin cytoskeleton organization, cell adhesion or translation and transcriptional regulation.

Abstract
The majority of viral fusion proteins can be divided into two classes. The influenza hemagglutinin (HA) belongs to the class I fusion proteins and undergoes a series of conformational changes at acidic pH, leading to membrane fusion. The crystal structures of the prefusion and the postfusion forms of HA have been revealed in 1981 and 1994, respectively. On the basis of these structures, a model for the mechanism of membrane fusion mediated by the conformational changes of HA has been proposed. The flavivirus E and alphavirus E1 proteins belong to the class II fusion proteins and mediate membrane fusion at acidic pH. Their prefusion structures are distinct from that of HA. Last year, however, it has become evident that the postfusion structures of these class I and class II fusion proteins are similar. The paramyxovirus F protein belongs to the class I fusion proteins. In contrast to HA, an interaction between F and its homologous attachment protein is required for F to undergo the conformational changes. Since F mediates fusion at neutral pH, the infected cells can fuse with neighboring uninfected cells. The crystal structures of F and the attachment protein HN have recently been clarified, which will facilitate studies of the molecular mechanism of F-mediated membrane fusion.

Abstract
(3 S,14 S)-Petrocortyne A, a lipid compound (a C(46) polyacetylenic alcohol), from marine sponges ( Petrosia sp.) is potently cytotoxic against several solid tumour cells. In this study, we investigated in vitro anti-inflammatory and pro-aggregative effects of petrocortyne A at non-cytotoxic concentrations on various cellular inflammatory phenomena using the macrophage and monocytic cell lines RAW264.7 and U937. Petrocortyne A blocked tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production strongly and concentration-dependently in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated RAW264.7 cells and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)/LPS-treated U937 cells. It also blocked NO production concentration-dependently in LPS- or interferon (IFN)-gamma-treated RAW264.7 cells. Among the migration factors tested, the compound selectively blocked the expression of hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF). On the other hand, as assessed by a cell-cell adhesion assay, petrocortyne A did not block the activation of adhesion molecules induced by aggregative antibodies to adhesion molecules, but suppressed PMA-induced cell-cell adhesion significantly. Intriguingly, petrocortyne A induced U937 homotypic aggregation following long exposure (2 and 3 days), accompanied by weak induction of pro-aggregative signals such as tyrosine phosphorylation of p132 and phosphorylation of extracellular signal-related kinase 1 and 2 (ERK 1/2). Petrocortyne A may thus inhibit cellular inflammatory processes and immune cell migration to inflamed tissue.

Abstract
CD98 is a protein found on the surface of many activated cell types, and is implicated in the regulation of cellular differentiation, adhesion, growth, and apoptosis. Despite many studies addressing CD98 function, there is little information on the intracellular signalling pathways that mediate its activity. In this study, we examine protein kinase pathways that are activated following ligation by the CD98 antibody AHN-18, an antibody that induces U937 homotypic aggregation and inhibits antigen presenting activity and T-cell activation. Ligation by CD98 antibody AHN-18 induces tyrosine kinase activity, but inhibition of this activity does not affect U937 aggregation. Ligation also induces membrane translocation of the serine/threonine kinase novel PKCdelta, but not other members of the PKC family. Translocation is blocked by rottlerin, and this inhibitor also blocks aggregation. PKCdelta activation in turn mediates activation of ERK1/2 and p38, as well as tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, and MAPK activation is essential for cellular aggregation. One of the targets of CD98-induced tyrosine phosphorylation is itself PKCdelta, suggesting that this phosphorylation may act as a negative feedback to limit the overall activation of the CD98 pathway.

Abstract
CD98, an early marker of T-cell activation, is an important regulator of integrin-mediated adhesion events. Previous studies suggest that CD98 is coupled to both cellular activation and transformation and is involved in the pathogenesis of viral infection, inflammatory disease, and cancer. Understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying CD98 activity may have far-reaching practical applications in the development of novel therapeutic strategies in these disease states. Using small cell lung cancer cell lines, which are nonadherent, nonpolarized, and highly express CD98, we show that, in vitro, under physiological conditions, CD98 is constitutively associated with beta1 integrins regardless of activation status. Cross-linking CD98 with the monoclonal antibody 4F2 stimulated phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, PI(3,4,5)P(3), and protein kinase B in the absence of integrin ligation or extracellular matrix engagement. Furthermore, cross-linking CD98 promoted anchorage-independent growth. Using fibroblasts derived from beta1 integrin null stem cells (GD25), wild-type GD25beta1, or GD25 cells expressing a mutation preventing beta1 integrin-dependent FAK phosphorylation, we demonstrate that a functional beta1 integrin is required for CD98 signaling. We propose that by cross-linking CD98, it acts as a "molecular facilitator" in the plasma membrane, clustering beta1 integrins to form high-density complexes. This results in integrin activation, integrin-like signaling, and anchorage-independent growth. Activation of PI 3-kinase may, in part, explain cellular transformation seen on overexpressing CD98. These results may provide a paradigm for events involved in such diverse processes as inflammation and viral-induced cell fusion.

Abstract
Heterodimeric amino acid transporters are comprised of two subunits, a polytopic membrane protein (light chain) and an associated type II membrane protein (heavy chain). The heavy chain rbAT (related to b(0,+) amino acid transporter) associates with the light chain b(0,+)AT (b(0,+) amino acid transporter) to form the amino acid transport system b(0,+), whereas the homologous heavy chain 4F2hc interacts with several light chains to form system L (with LAT1 and LAT2), system y(+)L (with y(+)LAT1 and y(+)LAT2), system x (with xAT), or system asc (with asc1). The association of light chains with the two heavy chains is not unambiguous. rbAT may interact with LAT2 and y(+)LAT1 and vice versa; 4F2hc may interact with b(0,+)AT when overexpressed. 4F2hc is necessary for trafficking of the light chain to the plasma membrane, whereas the light chains are thought to determine the transport characteristics of the respective heterodimer. In contrast to 4F2hc, mutations in rbAT suggest that rbAT itself takes part in the transport besides serving for the trafficking of the light chain to the cell surface. Heavy and light subunits are linked together by a disulfide bridge. The disulfide bridge, however, is not necessary for the trafficking of rbAT or 4F2 heterodimers to the membrane or for the functioning of the transporter. However, there is experimental evidence that the disulfide bridge in the 4F2hc/LAT1 heterodimer plays a role in the regulation of a cation channel. These results highlight complex interactions between the different subunits of heterodimeric amino acid transporters and suggest that despite high grades of homology, the interactions between rbAT and 4F2hc and their respective partners may be different.

Abstract
CD98 is expressed on both hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells and has been implicated in a variety of different aspects of cell physiology and immunobiology. In this study, the functional interactions between CD98 and other adhesion molecules on the surface of the promonocyte line U937 are examined by means of a quantitative assay of cell aggregation. Several of the CD98 antibodies induced homotypic aggregation of these cells without affecting cellular viability or growth. Aggregation induced by CD98 antibodies could be distinguished from that induced by beta1-integrin (CD29) ligation by lack of sensitivity to EDTA and by increased sensitivity to deoxyglucose. Aggregation induced via CD98 and CD29 could also be distinguished by the pattern of protein tyrosine phosphorylation induced. Some CD29 antibodies partially inhibited CD98-induced aggregation, and these antibodies were neither agonistic for aggregation nor inhibitors of beta1-integrin binding to substrates. Conversely, some CD98 antibodies were potent inhibitors of CD29-induced aggregation. Antibodies to beta2 integrins also partially inhibited CD98-induced aggregation. Unexpectedly, 2 antibodies to CD147, an immunoglobulin superfamily member whose function has remained unclear, were also potent inhibitors of both the aggregation and the protein tyrosine phosphorylation induced via CD98 ligation. The results of this study support a central role for CD98 within a multimolecular unit that regulates cell aggregation.

Abstract
Freshly isolated human blood monocytes expressed neither c-src mRNA nor c-Src. However, when monocytes were incubated with anti-CD98 heavy chain (HC) mAb, expression of c-src mRNA, c-Src, and activated c-Src was induced. Many binding sites for the ubiquitous transcription factor Sp1 were identified in the promoter region of the c-src gene. Surprisingly, Sp1 and Sp1 mRNA were not found in monocytes that were freshly isolated or incubated with control antibody. Stimulation with anti-CD98HC mAb also resulted in the expression of Sp1 and its translocation to the nucleus. Herbimycin A, genistein, manumycin A, PD-98059, SB203580, and HBJ127 suppressed CD98HC-mediated c-src and Sp1 mRNA induction. On the contrary, H-7, Wortmannin, HA1077, and Y-27632 showed no effect on c-Src and Sp1 induction. Furthermore, anti-CD98HC mAb induced activation of tyrosine kinases and ERK kinases. These findings suggest that the tyrosine kinase(s)-Ras-MAPK-Sp1 pathway(s) is involved in CD98HC-mediated induction of c-Src in human blood monocytes.

Abstract
Canine distemper virus (CDV) causes a life-threatening disease in several carnivores including domestic dogs. Recently, we identified a molecule, CD9, a member of the tetraspan transmembrane protein family, which facilitates, and antibodies to which inhibit, the infection of tissue culture cells with CDV (strain Onderstepoort). Here we describe that an anti-CD9 monoclonal antibody (MAb K41) did not interfere with binding of CDV to cells and uptake of virus. In addition, in single-step growth experiments, MAb K41 did not induce differences in the levels of viral mRNA and proteins. However, the virus release of syncytium-forming strains of CDV, the virus-induced cell-cell fusion in lytically infected cultures, and the cell-cell fusion of uninfected with persistently CDV-infected HeLa cells were strongly inhibited by MAb K41. These data indicate that anti-CD9 antibodies selectively block virus-induced cell-cell fusion, whereas virus-cell fusion is not affected.

Abstract
Human blood monocytes can differentiate into osteoclast-like cells when they are cultured in the presence of anti-FRP-1. Messenger (mRNA) expression of markers related to osteoclasts was analyzed during differentiation of osteoclasts from monocytes. As markers related to osteoclasts, we selected cathepsin-K, carbonic anhydrase (CA) II, vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (v-ATPase), vitronectin receptor (VNR), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP), osteopontin (OPN), galectin-3, c-src, c-fos, and c-fms. The mRNAs other than c-src mRNA were expressed in freshly isolated monocytes or monocytes incubated with control antibody or anti-FRP-1 monoclonal antibody (MAb) for 14 days. Of these mRNAs, cathepsin-K, CA II, v-ATPase, VNR, TRAP, OPN, and c-fms mRNAs were expressed at higher levels in the osteoclast-like cells than those in monocytes cultured with control antibody. On the other hand, galectin-3 mRNA was expressed at lower levels in the osteoclast-like cells, and there was no significant difference in c-fos mRNA expression between the monocytes cultured with control antibody and anti-FRP-1 MAb. c-src mRNA could not be detected in monocytes freshly isolated or incubated with control antibody. Surprisingly, expression of c-src mRNA was induced in monocytes by anti-FRP-1 MAb and was detectable as early as 3 h after anti-FRP-1 MAb treatment, indicating that c-src is selectively induced by anti-FRP-1 MAb treatment. Furthermore, the osteoclast-like cells expressed calcitonin receptor. Receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) mRNA was detectable in freshly isolated monocytes or monocytes cultured with control antibody or anti-FRP-1 MAbs. Maximal expression of RANK was observed in osteoclast-like cells. On the other hand, no receptor activator of NF-KB ligand (RANKL) mRNA was detectable in any of the samples, suggesting that anti-FRP-1 mAb can induce osteoclast-like cells from blood monocytes without RANKL.

Abstract
When anti-CD98 mAb 6-1-13, 4-5-1, or 38-2-2 was added to the culture fluids of monocytes, extensive cell aggregation and polykaryocyte formation were induced. These multinucleated giant cells were tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) positive. On the other hand, when monocytes were incubated with another anti-CD98 mAb, HBJ 127, polykaryocyte formation was not detected, although extensive cell aggregation was induced. When HBJ 127 and 6-1-13 were simultaneously added to the culture fluids, anti-CD98 mAb-induced cell fusion was inhibited almost completely. HBJ 127 suppressed formation of 6-1-13-induced cell fusion in a dose-dependent manner. If, however, HBJ 127 was added after incubation of monocytes with mAb 6-1-13 for 6 h, an appreciable degree of TRAP-positive polykaryocyte formation was found. The bindings of 6-1-13 and HBJ 127 were not mutually competed. When monocytes were incubated with 6-1-13 or HBJ 127, 6-1-13 induced c-src mRNA, while HBJ 127 did not. Furthermore, when monocytes were incubated with both 6-1-13 and HBJ 127, c-src mRNA could not be detected, showing that HBJ 127 suppresses c-src expression. Therefore, CD98-mediated osteoclast formation can be regulated by modification of CD98 system.
