Abstract
KEY POINTS Receptor-operated activation of TRPC4 cation channels requires Gi/o proteins and phospholipase-Cδ1 (PLCδ1) activation by intracellular Ca2+ . Concurrent stimulation of the Gq/11 pathway accelerates Gi/o activation of TRPC4, which is not mimicked by increasing cytosolic Ca2+ . The kinetic effect of Gq/11 was diminished by alkaline intracellular pH (pHi ) and increased pHi buffer capacity. Acidic pHi (6.75-6.25) together with the cytosolic Ca2+ rise accelerated Gi/o -mediated TRPC4 activation. Protons exert their facilitation effect through Ca2+ -dependent activation of PLCδ1. The data suggest that the Gq/11 -PLCβ pathway facilitates Gi/o activation of TRPC4 through hydrolysing phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2 ) to produce the initial proton signal that triggers a self-propagating PLCδ1 activity supported by regenerative H+ and Ca2+ . The findings provide novel mechanistic insights into receptor-operated TRPC4 activation by coincident Gq/11 and Gi/o pathways and shed light on how aberrant activation of TRPC4 may occur under pathological conditions to cause cell damage. ABSTRACT Transient Receptor Potential Canonical 4 (TRPC4) forms non-selective cation channels activated downstream from receptors that signal through G proteins. Our recent work suggests that TRPC4 channels are particularly coupled to pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi/o proteins, with a co-dependence on phospholipase-Cδ1 (PLCδ1). The Gi/o -mediated TRPC4 activation is dually dependent on and bimodally regulated by phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2 ), the substrate hydrolysed by PLC, and intracellular Ca2+ . As a byproduct of PLC-mediated PIP2 hydrolysis, protons have been shown to play an important role in the activation of Drosophila TRP channels. However, how intracellular pH affects mammalian TRPC channels remains obscure. Here, using patch-clamp recordings of HEK293 cells heterologously co-expressing mouse TRPC4β and the Gi/o -coupled μ opioid receptor, we investigated the role of intracellular protons on Gi/o -mediated TRPC4 activation. We found that acidic cytosolic pH greatly accelerated the rate of TRPC4 activation without altering the maximal current density and this effect was dependent on intracellular Ca2+ elevation. However, protons did not accelerate channel activation by directly acting upon TRPC4. We additionally demonstrated that protons exert their effect through sensitization of PLCδ1 to Ca2+ , which in turn promotes PLCδ1 activity and further potentiates TRPC4 via a positive feedback mechanism. The mechanism elucidated here helps explain how Gi/o and Gq/11 co-stimulation induces a faster activation of TRPC4 than Gi/o activation alone and highlights again the critical role of PLCδ1 in TRPC4 gating.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential Canonical (TRPC) proteins form nonselective cation channels commonly known to be activated downstream from receptors that signal through phospholipase C (PLC). Although TRPC3/C6/C7 can be directly activated by diacylglycerols produced by PLC breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), the mechanism by which the PLC pathway activates TRPC4/C5 remains unclear. We show here that TRPC4 activation requires coincident stimulation of Gi/o subgroup of G proteins and PLCδ, with a preference for PLCδ1 over PLCδ3, but not necessarily the PLCβ pathway commonly thought to be involved in receptor-operated TRPC activation. In HEK293 cells coexpressing TRPC4 and Gi/o-coupled µ opioid receptor, µ agonist elicited currents biphasically, with an initial slow phase preceding a rapidly developing phase. The currents were dependent on intracellular Ca(2+) and PIP2. Reducing PIP2 through phosphatases abolished the biphasic kinetics and increased the probability of channel activation by weak Gi/o stimulation. In both HEK293 cells heterologously expressing TRPC4 and renal carcinoma-derived A-498 cells endogenously expressing TRPC4, channel activation was inhibited by knocking down PLCδ1 levels and almost completely eliminated by a dominant-negative PLCδ1 mutant and a constitutively active RhoA mutant. Conversely, the slow phase of Gi/o-mediated TRPC4 activation was diminished by inhibiting RhoA or enhancing PLCδ function. Our data reveal an integrative mechanism of TRPC4 on detection of coincident Gi/o, Ca(2+), and PLC signaling, which is further modulated by the small GTPase RhoA. This mechanism is not shared with the closely related TRPC5, implicating unique roles of TRPC4 in signal integration in brain and other systems.

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
Rac1, which is associated with cytoskeletal pathways, can activate phospholipase Cbeta2 (PLCbeta2) to increase intracellular Ca(2+) levels. This increased Ca(2+) can in turn activate the very robust PLCdelta1 to synergize Ca(2+) signals. We have previously found that PLCbeta2 will bind to and inhibit PLCdelta1 in solution by an unknown mechanism and that PLCbeta2.PLCdelta1 complexes can be disrupted by Gbetagamma subunits. However, because the major populations of PLCbeta2 and PLCdelta1 are cytosolic, their regulation by Gbetagamma subunits is not clear. Here, we have found that the pleckstrin homology (PH) domains of PLCbeta2 and PLCbeta3 are the regions that result in PLCdelta1 binding and inhibition. In cells, PLCbeta2.PLCdelta1 form complexes as seen by Förster resonance energy transfer and co-immunoprecipitation, and microinjection of PHbeta2 dissociates the complex. Using PHbeta2 as a tool to assess the contribution of PLCbeta inhibition of PLCdelta1 to Ca(2+) release, we found that, although PHbeta2 only results in a 25% inhibition of PLCdelta1 in solution, in cells the presence of PHbeta2 appears to eliminates Ca(2+) release suggesting a large threshold effect. We found that the small plasma membrane population of PLCbeta2.PLCdelta1 is disrupted by activation of heterotrimeric G proteins, and that the major cytosolic population of the complexes are disrupted by Rac1 activation. Thus, the activity of PLCdelta1 is controlled by the amount of bound PLCbeta2 that changes with displacement of the enzyme by heterotrimeric or small G proteins. Through PLCbeta2, PLCdelta1 activation is linked to surface receptors as well as signals that mediate cytoskeletal pathways.

Abstract
Phosphatidyl inositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI 4,5-P2) accumulates in a Rac/Rop-dependent manner in the pollen tube tip plasma membrane, where it may control actin organization and membrane traffic. PI 4,5-P2 is hydrolyzed by phospholipase C (PLC) activity to the signaling molecules inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacyl glycerol (DAG). To investigate PLC activity during tip growth, we cloned Nt PLC3, specifically expressed in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) pollen tubes. Recombinant Nt PLC3 displayed Ca2+-dependent PI 4,5-P2-hydrolyzing activity sensitive to U-73122 and to mutations in the active site. Nt PLC3 overexpression, but not that of inactive mutants, inhibited pollen tube growth. Yellow fluorescent protein (YFP) fused to Nt PLC3, or to its EF and C2 domains, accumulated laterally at the pollen tube tip plasma membrane in a pattern complementary to the distribution of PI 4,5-P2. The DAG marker Cys1:YFP displayed a similar intracellular localization as PI 4,5-P2. Blocking endocytic membrane recycling affected the intracellular distribution of DAG but not of PI 4,5-P2. U-73122 at low micromolar concentrations inhibited and partially depolarized pollen tube growth, caused PI 4,5-P2 spreading at the apex, and abolished DAG membrane accumulation. We show that Nt PLC3 is targeted by its EF and C2 domains to the plasma membrane laterally at the pollen tube tip and that it maintains, together with endocytic membrane recycling, an apical domain enriched in PI 4,5-P2 and DAG required for polar cell growth.

Abstract
The Toxoplasma gondii phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C gene (TgPI-PLC) was cloned, sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli and its enzymatic characteristics were investigated. TgPI-PLC is present in the genome as a single-copy gene consisting of 22 exons interrupted by 21 introns, and encodes a polypeptide of 1097 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 121 kDa. In addition to the conserved catalytic X and Y domains, TgPI-PLC contains an apparent N-terminal PH domain, an EF hand motif and a C-terminal C2 domain. When compared with mammalian delta-type PI-PLC, TgPI-PLC has an additional extended N-terminus and two insertions in the region between the X and Y domains, with a 31-35% identity over the whole sequence. Recombinant TgPI-PLC, as well as the native enzyme obtained from crude membrane extracts of the parasite, was more active with phosphatidylinositol than with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate as substrate. Indirect immunofluorescence analysis using an affinity-purified antibody against TgPI-PLC revealed that this enzyme localizes in the plasma membrane of the parasites.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) is a key enzyme in phosphoinositide turnover and is involved in a variety of physiological functions. We analyzed PLCdelta1 knockout mice and found that PLCdelta1 is required for the maintenance of skin homeostasis. However, there were no remarkable abnormalities except hair loss and runting in PLCdelta1 knockout mice, even though PLCdelta1 is broadly distributed. Here, we report that mice lacking both PLCdelta1 and PLCdelta3 died at embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5) to E13.5. PLCdelta1/PLCdelta3 double-knockout mice exhibited severe disruption of the normal labyrinth architecture in the placenta and decreased placental vascularization, as well as abnormal proliferation and apoptosis of trophoblasts in the labyrinth area. Furthermore, PLCdelta1/PLCdelta3 double-knockout embryos supplied with a normal placenta by the tetraploid aggregation method survived beyond E14.5, clearly indicating that the embryonic lethality is caused by a defect in trophoblasts. On the basis of these results, we conclude that PLCdelta1 and PLCdelta3 are essential in trophoblasts for placental development.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In human hypertension, the response of phospholipase C (PLC) to stimuli is enhanced in signal transduction where receptors are coupled to pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. We investigated PLC activity and its role in human hypertension. METHODS AND RESULTS Skin fibroblasts were cultured from 15 normotensives subjects (53 +/- 4 years, four men and 11 women) and 19 essential hypertension (EH) patients (58 +/- 2 years, nine men and 10 women). Plasma membrane PLC activity, assessed by conversion of the tritiated exogenous phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate to inositol trisphosphate, was greater in EH patients than in normotensive subjects (1.4 +/- 0.2 versus 0.7 +/- 0.1 pmol/mg protein/min, P <0.05). There was a positive correlation between PLC activity and mean blood pressure measured at admission and 7 days after admission (r = 0.47 and 0.37 respectively, both P <0.05). The value of the Michaelis constant was lower in EH patients than in normotensive subjects (32.1 +/- 5.6 versus 58.3 +/- 10.0 micromol/l, P <0.05), despite the fact that maximal velocity of the reaction was no different. Western blot analysis against PLC beta2 and beta3, gamma, delta1, and G protein gamma2 and gamma5 revealed that most PLC and G protein isoforms detected were delta1 of PLC and gamma2 of G protein, and no difference was detected in their amount between two groups. CONCLUSIONS We conclude that enhanced PLC delta1 activity may be involved in the pathogenesis of human hypertension.

Abstract
It has been previously suggested that leukotriene-induced Ca2+ signalling is mediated through a Rho-dependent process, but neither direct activation of Rho nor a mechanism underlying such signalling has been reported. Accordingly, we used the Rhotekin binding assay to assess RhoA activation in intestinal epithelial cells and observed that RhoA was activated by leukotriene D4 (LTD4). We also found that, within 15 s, activation of RhoA by LTD4 led to an increased association of RhoA with G-protein betagamma (Gbetagamma) and phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1) in the plasma membrane, as evidenced by the results of co-immunoprecipitation, glutathione S-transferase (GST) pulldown assays, and confocal microscopy. Amounts of RhoA increased in both Gbeta and PLC-gamma1 immunoprecipitates within 15 s of LTD4 treatment. An interaction between RhoA, Gbetagamma and PLC-gamma1 is supported by our finding that a GST fusion protein of constitutively active RhoA (GST-RhoAV14) precipitated Gbetagamma and PLC-gamma1 from cell lysates in an agonist-dependent manner. Such an association is also substantiated by our confocal immunofluorescence results, which revealed that LTD4 induction increased co-localization of constitutively active RhoA and PLC-gamma1 to the plasma membrane of cells transfected with enhanced green fluorescent protein L63RhoA. Furthermore, microinjection of neutralizing RhoA antibodies, but not control antibodies, significantly reduced LTD4-induced Ca2+ mobilization. Our results are the first to demonstrate a LTD4-induced activation of RhoA and more importantly its association with PLC-gamma1, which are essential for the PLC-gamma1-mediated calcium mobilization.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) subtypes beta, gamma, and delta comprise a related group of multidomain phosphodiesterases that cleave the polar head groups from inositol lipids. Activated by all classes of cell surface receptor, these enzymes generate the ubiquitous second messengers inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. The last 5 years have seen remarkable advances in our understanding of the molecular and biological facets of PLCs. New insights into their multidomain arrangement and catalytic mechanism have been gained from crystallographic studies of PLC-delta(1), while new modes of controlling PLC activity have been uncovered in cellular studies. Most notable is the realization that PLC-beta, -gamma, and -delta isoforms act in concert, each contributing to a specific aspect of the cellular response. Clues to their true biological roles were also obtained. Long assumed to function broadly in calcium-regulated processes, genetic studies in yeast, slime molds, plants, flies, and mammals point to specific and conditional roles for each PLC isoform in cell signaling and development. In this review we consider each subtype of PLC in organisms ranging from yeast to mammals and discuss their molecular regulation and biological function.

Abstract
The phosphoinositide (PI)-specific phospholipase C gene (TcPI-PLC) of the protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi was cloned, sequenced, expressed in Escherichia coli, and the protein product (TcPI-PLC) was shown to have enzymatic characteristics similar to those of mammalian delta-type PI-PLCs. The TcPI-PLC gene is expressed at high levels in the epimastigote and amastigote stages of the parasite, and its expression is induced during the differentiation of trypomastigotes into amastigotes, where TcPI-PLC associates with the plasma membrane and increases its catalytic activity. In contrast to other PI-PLCs described so far, the deduced amino acid sequence of TcPI-PLC revealed some unique features such as an N-myristoylation consensus sequence at its amino-terminal end, lack of an apparent pleckstrin homology domain and a highly charged linker region between the catalytic X and Y domains. TcPI-PLC is lipid modified in vivo, as demonstrated by metabolic labeling with [(3)H]myristate and [(3)H]palmitate and fatty acid analysis of the immunoprecipitated protein, and may constitute the first example of a new group of PI-PLCs.

Abstract
The function of differentiated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) in vivo is the regulation of contractility. Following injury or disease, however, VSMC lose their contractile function and take on a synthetic, proliferative phenotype. This dedifferentiation is generally accompanied by a change in the expression profile of phospholipase C isoforms.

Abstract
The inositol phosphate hydrolyzing activity of human phospholipase Cdelta1 (PLCdelta1) is markedly inhibited when the enzyme is coexpressed with the human heart G(h)/transglutaminase (TG) in human embryonic kidney cells. Because the cotransfection does not affect the amount of PLCdelta1 in the cells, the depression of phospholipase activity probably is a result of a direct interaction between the two proteins. An ELISA procedure was employed to document the associations of purified TG preparations from a variety of tissues (human red cells, rabbit lens, guinea pig liver) with PLCdelta1. Nucleotides (GTP > GDP > ATP > GMP = ADP, in order of decreasing efficiency) interfered with the formation of the PLCdelta1:TG complex. A conformational change in the TG partner, occurring with nucleotide binding, is thought to be responsible for dissociating the two proteins. The structural rearrangement produces a remarkable shift in the anodic mobility of TG in electrophoresis: TG(slow) + GTP -->/<-- [TG:GTP](fast). Altogether, our findings indicate that GTP controls PLCdelta1 activity by releasing this protein from an inhibitory association with G(h)/transglutaminase.

Abstract
The widely expressed phospholipase C gamma1 (PLCgamma1) isoform has been implicated in the signalling of cell growth through its ability to hydrolyse phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to give inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and 1,2-diacylglycerol. Stimulation of PLCgamma1 activity occurs upon phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues, although it is unclear how this phosphorylation actually stimulates catalytic activity. Indeed recent reports suggest that accessory factors such as GTP-binding proteins may also be required for complete activation of PLCgamma1 in some cells. This may be of importance in vascular smooth muscle where traditionally G-protein linked PLCbeta isoforms are often absent. Here, we show that bovine aortic PLCgamma1 activity is substantially enhanced by both GTPgammaS and sodium fluoride. Similarly, immunoprecipitated PLCgamma1 is associated with an approximately 40kDa GTPgammaS-binding protein and both Galphai and Galphaq were detected in this immunoprecipitate. This data suggests that bovine aortic PLCgamma1 is both associated with, and may be activated by, heterotrimeric G-proteins.
