Abstract
Phospholipase D1 (PLD1), which catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine to phosphatidic acid and choline, plays multiple roles in inflammation. We investigated the therapeutic effects of the newly developed PLD1 inhibitors A2998, A3000, and A3773 in vitro and in vivo rheumatoid arthritis (RA) model. A3373 reduced the levels of LPS-induced TNF-α, IL-6, and IgG in murine splenocytes in vitro. A3373 also decreased the levels of IFN-γ and IL-17 and the frequencies of Th1, Th17 cells and germinal-center B cells, in splenocytes in vitro. A3373 ameliorated the severity of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) and suppressed infiltration of inflammatory cells into the joint tissues of mice with CIA compared with vehicle-treated mice. Moreover, A3373 prevented systemic bone demineralization in mice with CIA and suppressed osteoclast differentiation and the mRNA levels of osteoclastogenesis markers in vitro. These results suggest that A3373 has therapeutic potential for RA.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ2) is a critical signaling molecule activated downstream from a variety of cell surface receptors that contain an intracellular immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif. These receptors recruit kinases such as Syk, BTK, and BLNK to phosphorylate and activate PLCγ2, which then generates 1D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. These well-known second messengers are required for diverse membrane functionality including cellular proliferation, endocytosis, and calcium flux. As a result, PLCγ2 dysfunction is associated with a variety of diseases including cancer, neurodegeneration, and immune disorders. The diverse pathologies associated with PLCγ2 are exemplified by distinct genetic variants. Inherited mutations at this locus cause PLCγ2-associated antibody deficiency and immune dysregulation, in some cases with autoinflammation. Acquired mutations at this locus, which often arise as a result of BTK inhibition to treat chronic lymphocytic leukemia, result in constitutive downstream signaling and lymphocyte proliferation. Finally, a third group of PLCγ2 variants actually has a protective effect in a variety of neurodegenerative disorders, presumably by increased uptake and degradation of deleterious neurological aggregates. Therefore, manipulating PLCγ2 activity either up or down could have therapeutic benefit; however, we require a better understanding of the signaling pathways propagated by these variants before such clinical utility can be realized. Here, we review the signaling roles of PLCγ2 in hematopoietic cells to help understand the effect of mutations driving immune disorders and cancer and extrapolate from this to roles which may relate to protection against neurodegeneration.

Abstract
As the focus has shifted from traditional killed or live, attenuated vaccines toward subunit vaccines, improvements in vaccine safety have been confronted with low immunogenicity of protein antigens. This issue has been addressed by synthesizing and designing a wide variety of antigen carriers and adjuvants, such as Toll-like receptor agonists (e.g., MPLA, CpG). Studies have focused on optimizing adjuvants for improved cellular trafficking, cytosolic availability, and improved antigen presentation. In this work, we describe the design of novel amphiphilic pentablock copolymer (PBC) adjuvants that exhibit high biocompatibility and reversible pH- and temperature-sensitive micelle formation. We demonstrate improved humoral immunity in mice in response to single-dose immunization with PBC micelle adjuvants compared with soluble antigen alone. With the motive of exploring the mechanism of action of these PBC micelles, we studied intracellular trafficking of these PBC micelles with a model antigen and demonstrated that the PBC micelles associate with the antigen and enhance its cytosolic delivery to antigen-presenting cells. We posit that these PBC micelles operate via immune-enhancing mechanisms that are different from that of traditional Toll-like receptor activating adjuvants. The metabolic profile of antigen-presenting cells stimulated with traditional adjuvants and the PBC micelles also suggests distinct mechanisms of action. A key finding from this study is the low production of nitric oxide and reactive oxygen species by antigen-presenting cells when stimulated by PBC micelle adjuvants in sharp contrast to TLR adjuvants. Together, these studies provide a basis for rationally developing novel vaccine adjuvants that are safe, that induce low inflammation, and that can efficiently deliver antigen to the cytosol.

Abstract
Inflammation is a series of complex biological responses to protect the host from pathogen invasion. Chronic inflammation is considered a major cause of diseases, such as various types of inflammatory/autoimmune diseases and cancers. Spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) was initially found to be highly expressed in hematopoietic cells and has been known to play crucial roles in adaptive immune responses. However, recent studies have reported that Syk is also involved in other biological functions, especially in innate immune responses. Although Syk has been extensively studied in adaptive immune responses, numerous studies have recently presented evidence that Syk has critical functions in macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses and is closely related to innate immune response. This review describes the characteristics of Syk-mediated signaling pathways, summarizes the recent findings supporting the crucial roles of Syk in macrophage-mediated inflammatory responses and diseases, and discusses Syk-targeted drug development for the therapy of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Despite significant advances in the treatment of hematological malignancies over the last decade, morbidity and mortality from these disorders remain high. New discoveries in the pathogenesis of these malignancies have led to better understanding of these diseases and new thinking in drug development. mTOR is a downstream effector of the PI3K/Akt (protein kinase B) signaling pathway that mediates cell survival and proliferation and is known to be deregulated in many cancers. Preclinical activity of mTOR inhibitors has been very promising in various hematological malignancies. Rapamycin analogs with relatively favorable pharmaceutical properties, including temsirolimus (CCI-779), everolimus (RAD001) and deforolimus (AP23573), are under clinical evaluations in patients with hematologic malignancies. They have shown encouraging results thus far and a favorable toxicity profile. Their utility, mainly as cytostatic agents, needs to be further explored in combination with pre-existing chemotherapeutic agents for various hematological malignancies.

Abstract
Vav proteins participate in the assembly of a multibranched signal transduction pathway in lymphocytes, including the stimulation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B and the phospholipase C-gamma/Ras GDP-releasing protein/Ras/Erk routes. In the present work, we used a genetic approach in chicken DT40 B-cell lines to investigate additional elements of the Vav route, the synergisms existing among the different Vav signaling branches, and the activities exerted by wild-type and oncogenic Vav proteins in B-lymphocytes. We show here that the Vav pathway is ramified in B-lymphocytes in additional diacylglycerol-dependent signaling branches such as those involving protein kinase C, protein kinase D, and phospholipase D. By using side-by-side comparisons of the activation levels of those signal transduction pathways in inhibitor-treated and knockout DT40 cells, we show that B-cells have different requirements regarding Vav proteins for the activation of antigen receptor downstream elements. Furthermore, we have detected interpathway cross-talk at the level of the most proximal elements but not among the most distal effector molecules of the Vav route. Finally, we show that the oncogenic versions of Vav1 and RhoA can activate alternative routes that could contribute to signal amplification and diversification events in transformed lymphocytes.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine kinase Lyn and Syk are critical for antigen-receptor-induced signal transduction in mast cells. To identify novel Lyn/Syk substrates, we screened an RBL-2H3 bacterial expression library for proteins that were tyrosine phosphorylated with baculoviral expressed Lyn or Syk. Five clones as potential Lyn substrates and eight clones as Syk substrates were identified including known substrates such as SLP-76, LAT, and alpha-tubulin. A potential substrate of Lyn identified was the molecule TOM1L1, which has several domains thought to be important for membrane trafficking and protein-protein interactions. Because the function of TOM1L1 is unclear, the rat TOM1L1 full-length cDNA was isolated and used to express the protein in COS-1 and RBL-2H3 mast cells. In COS-1 cells, the co-transfection of TOM1L1 and Lyn, but not Syk, resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of TOM1L1. In RBL-2H3 mast cells, the overexpressed TOM1L1 was strongly tyrosine phosphorylated in non-stimulated cells, and this phosphorylation was enhanced by FcepsilonRI aggregation. By subcellular fractionation, wild-type TOM1L1 was mainly in the cytoplasm with a small fraction constitutively associated with the membrane; this association was markedly reduced in deletion mutants lacking several of the protein interaction domains. The overexpression of TOM1L1 enhanced antigen-induced tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha generation and release. Both protein interaction domains (VHS and the coiled-coil domains) were required for the increased TNFalpha release, but not the increased TNFalpha generation. These results suggest that TOM1L1 is a novel protein involved in the FcepsilonRI signal transduction for the generation of cytokines.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent infection of B cells blocks the interrelated signaling and antigen-trafficking functions of the BCR through the activity of its latent membrane protein 2A (LMP2A). At present, the molecular mechanisms by which LMP2A exerts its control of BCR functions are only poorly understood. Earlier studies showed that in B cells expressing LMP2A containing a tyrosine mutation at position 112 in its cytoplasmic domain (Y112-LMP2A), the BCR could initiate signaling but could not properly traffic antigen for processing. Here, we show that BCR signaling in Y112-LMP2A-expressing cells is attenuated with a reduction in both the degree and duration of phosphorylation of key components of the BCR signaling cascade including Syk, BLNK, PI3K, and Btk. Notably, Y112-LMP2A expression completely blocked the BCR-induced activation of phospholipase D (PLD), a lipase implicated in the intracellular trafficking of a variety of surface receptors. We show that blocking PLD activity, by expressing Y112-LMP2A, treating cells with the PLD inhibitor 1-butanol or reducing PLD expression by siRNA, blocked BCR trafficking to class II-containing compartments. Moreover, Y112-LMP2A expression blocked the recruitment of phosphorylated forms of the downstream BCR signaling components, Erk and JNK, through both PLD-dependent and PLD-independent mechanisms. Thus, the investigation of the mechanism by which Y112-LMP2A blocks BCR function revealed an essential role for PLD in BCR trafficking for antigen processing.

Abstract
The CD38 cell surface receptor is a potent activator for splenic, B lymphocytes. The molecular mechanisms regulating this response, however, remain incompletely characterized. Activation of the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, Btk, is essential for CD38 downstream signaling function. The major Btk-dependent substrate in B cells, phospholipase C-gamma2 (PLC-gamma2), functions to generate the key secondary messengers, inositol-1,4,5 trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. Surprisingly, CD38 ligation results in no detectable increase in phosphoinositide metabolism and only a minimal increase in cytosolic calcium. We hypothesized that Btk functioned independently of PLC-gamma2 in the CD38 signaling pathway. Accordingly, we demonstrate that CD38 cross-linking does not result in the functional phosphorylation of PLC-gamma2 nor an increase in inositol-1,4,5 trisphosphate production. Furthermore, splenic B cells exhibit a normal CD38-mediated, proliferative response in the presence of the phosphoinositide-PLC inhibitor, U73122. Conversely, protein kinase C (PKC) beta-deficient mice, or PKC inhibitors, indicated the requirement for diacylglycerol-dependent PKC isoforms in this pathway. Loss of PKC activity blocked CD38-dependent, B cell proliferation, NF-kappaB activation, and subsequent expression of cyclin-D2. These results suggested that an alternate diacylglycerol-producing phospholipase must participate in CD38 signaling. Consistent with this idea, CD38 increased the enzymatic activity of the phosphatidylcholine (PC)-metabolizing enzymes, PC-PLC and phospholipase D. The PC-PLC inhibitor, D609, completely blocked CD38-dependent B cell proliferation, IkappaB-alpha degradation, and cyclin-D2 expression. Analysis of Btk mutant B cells demonstrated a partial requirement for Btk in the activation of both enzymes. Taken together, these data demonstrate that CD38 initiates a novel signaling cascade leading to Btk-, PC-PLC-, and phospholipase D-dependent, PLC-gamma2-independent, B lymphocyte activation.

Abstract
To investigate the role of phospholipase D (PLD) in FcepsilonRI signaling, the wild-type or the catalytically inactive forms of PLD1 or PLD2 were stably overexpressed in RBL-2H3 mast cells. FcepsilonRI stimulation resulted in the activation of both PLD1 and PLD2. However, PLD1 was the source of most of the receptor-induced PLD activity. There was enhanced FcepsilonRI-induced degranulation only in cells that overexpressed the catalytically inactive PLD1. This dominant-negative PLD1 enhanced FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylations of early signaling molecules such as the receptor subunits, Syk and phospholipase C-gamma which resulted in faster release of Ca(2+) from intracellular sources. Therefore, PLD1 negatively regulates signals upstream of the Ca(2+) response. However, FcepsilonRI-induced PLD activation required Syk and was downstream of the Ca(2+)response, suggesting that basal PLD1 activity rather than that activated by cell stimulation controlled these early signaling events. Dominant-negative PLD1 reduced the basal phosphatidic acid formation in unstimulated cells, which was accompanied by an increase in FcepsilonRI within the lipid rafts. These results indicate that constitutive basal PLD1 activity by regulating phosphatidic acid formation controls the early signals initiated by FcepsilonRI aggregation that lead to mast cell degranulation.

Abstract
Immune receptors are coupled to the activation of phosphatidylcholine phospholipase D (PC-PLD) that hydrolyses phosphatidylcholine to generate phosphatidic acid and choline. As these receptors are also coupled to other signalling cascades, it has been difficult to define the precise cell activation events resulting from PLD activation in the absence of specific inhibitors. There is increasing evidence that phosphatidic acid acts as an intracellular signalling molecule regulating release of calcium from intracellular stores, sphingosine kinase and protein kinase C activation and membrane budding. Phosphatidic acid can also be rapidly converted into lysophosphatidic acid, diacylglycerol and arachidonates.

Abstract
Syk kinase is essential for FcepsilonRI-mediated signaling and release of inflammatory mediators from mast cells. We now show that activation of rat peritoneal mast cells by the nonimmunological, G(i)-mediated pathway also results in the activation of Syk. We show that compound 48/80 (c48/80), a receptor analogue that activates directly G proteins, activates Syk in a pertussis toxin-sensitive fashion. We further show that Syk activation by c48/80 is blocked by the protein kinase C inhibitor GF109203X, by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, by EGTA, and by the selective src-like kinase inhibitor PP1. These results suggest that in the nonimmunological, G(i)-mediated pathway, Syk is located downstream from phospholipase C and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. However, in common with the FcepsilonRI-mediated pathway, activation of Syk by c48/80 is dependent on a src-like protein tyrosine kinase. Finally, we show that in the nonimmunological pathway, Syk plays a central role in the release of arachidonic acid/eicosanoid metabolites, but not in the release of prestored mediators such as histamine.

BACKGROUND Treatment of many cell types with phorbol esters stimulates phospholipase D (PLD) activity implying regulation of the enzyme by protein kinase C. Studies of the effects of several protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors have suggested that PTK(s) play some roles in the phorbol ester-induced PLD activation, but it remains unclear how and which PTK(s) is involved in this pathway. In this study, we investigated the roles of Syk and other PTKs for the phorbol esters, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA)-induced PLD activation in K562 and DT40 cells. RESULTS TPA-induced PLD activation was remarkably reduced in both Syk dominant negative mutant K562 cells and Syk deficient DT40 B cells. Mutational analysis further indicated that two major autophosphorylation sites (Tyr-518 and Tyr-519) of Syk are critical for PLD activation. Similarly, TPA-induced PLD activation was reduced in Btk deficient cells, but unaffected in Lyn deficient cells. Finally, in cells deficient in the PLC-gamma2, one of the phosphorylated substrates regulated by Syk and Btk, TPA-induced PLD activation, as well as phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis was remarkably reduced. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that the Syk, Btk and PLC-gamma2 pathways are required for TPA-induced PLD activation in DT40 cells.

Abstract
The use of the chicken DT40 B cell line is increasing in popularity due to the ease with which it can be manipulated genetically. It offers a targeted to random DNA integration ratio of more than 1:2, by far exceeding that of any mammalian cell line. The facility with which knockout cell lines can be generated, combined with a short generation time, makes the DT40 cell line attractive for phenotype analysis of single and multiple gene disruptions. Advantage has been taken of this to investigate such diverse fields as B cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling, cell cycle regulation, gene conversion and apoptosis. In this review, we give a historical introduction and a practical guide to the use of the DT40 cell line, along with an overview of the main topics being researched using the DT40 cell line as a model system. These topics include B cell-specific subjects such as B cell signaling and Ig rearrangement, and subjects common to all cell types such as apoptosis, histones, mRNA modification, chromosomal maintenance and DNA repair. Attention is in each case brought to peculiarities of the DT40 cell line that are of relevance for the subject. Novel applications of the cell line, e.g., as a vector for gene targeting of human chromosomes, are also discussed in this review.
