Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of the serine protease inhibitor plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2/Serpin B2) to inhibit proteases produced by a multispecies bacterial consortium in vitro. BACKGROUND Gingival and periodontal inflammation is associated with an increased flow of protein-rich gingival fluid. This nutritional change in the microenvironment favors bacteria with a proteolytic phenotype, triggering inflammation and associated tissue breakdown. PAI-2 is produced by macrophages and keratinocytes and is present in very high concentrations in gingival crevicular fluid; the highest level in the body. DESIGN A multispecies bacterial consortium comprising nine bacterial strains, resembling the conditions in a periodontal pocket, was grown planktonically and as a biofilm. After seven days PAI-2 was added to the consortium and the proteolytic activity was assayed with fluorogenic protease substrates; FITC-labeled casein to detect global protease activity, fluorescent H-Gly-Pro-AMC for serine protease activity and fluorescent BIKKAM-10 for Porphyromonas gingivalis-associated protease activity. Protease activity associated with biofilm cells was examined by confocal scanning laser microscopy. RESULTS PAI-2 inhibited proteolytic activity of the bacterial consortium, as seen by decreased fluorescence of all substrates. PAI-2 specifically inhibited P. gingivalis proteolytic activity. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, this is the first time that PAI-2 has been shown to inhibit bacterial proteases. Given the high concentration of PAI-2 in the gingival region, our results indicate that PAI-2 might play a role for the integrity of the epithelial barrier.

Abstract
SerpinB2 or plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is highly induced in macrophages in response to inflammatory stimuli and is linked to the modulation of innate immunity, macrophage survival, and inhibition of plasminogen activators. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a potent bacterial endotoxin, can induce SerpinB2 expression via the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) by ∼1000-fold over a period of 24 hrs in murine macrophages. To map the LPS-regulated SerpinB2 promoter regions, we transfected reporter constructs driven by the ∼5 kb 5'-flanking region of the murine SerpinB2 gene and several deletion mutants into murine macrophages. In addition, we compared the DNA sequence of the murine 5′ flanking sequence with the sequence of the human gene for homologous functional regulatory elements and identified several regulatory cis-acting elements in the human SERPINB2 promoter conserved in the mouse. Mutation analyses revealed that a CCAAT enhancer binding (C/EBP) element, a cyclic AMP response element (CRE) and two activator protein 1 (AP-1) response elements in the murine SerpinB2 proximal promoter are essential for optimal LPS-inducibility. Electrophoretic mobility shift (EMSA) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays demonstrated that LPS induces the formation of C/EBP-β containing complexes with the SerpinB2 promoter. Importantly, both constitutive and LPS-induced SerpinB2 expression was severely abrogated in C/EBP-β-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) and primary C/EBP-β-deficient peritoneal macrophages. Together, these data provide new insight into C/EBP-β-dependent regulation of inflammation-associated SerpinB2 expression.

Abstract
The decision between survival and death in cells exposed to TNF relies on a highly regulated equilibrium between proapoptotic and antiapoptotic factors. The TNF-activated antiapoptotic response depends on several transcription factors, including NF-κB and its RelA/p65 subunit, that are activated through phosphorylation-mediated degradation of IκB inhibitors, a process controlled by the IκB kinase complex. Genetic studies in mice have identified the IκB kinase-related kinase TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1; also called NAK or T2K) as an additional regulatory molecule that promotes survival downstream of TNF, but the mechanism through which TBK1 exerts its survival function has remained elusive. Here we show that TBK1 triggers an antiapoptotic response by controlling a specific RelA/p65 phosphorylation event. TBK1-induced RelA phosphorylation results in inducible expression of plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2), a member of the serpin family with known antiapoptotic activity. PAI-2 limits caspase-3 activation through stabilization of transglutaminase 2 (TG2), which cross-links and inactivates procaspase-3. Importantly, Tg2(-/-) mice were found to be more susceptible to apoptotic cell death in two models of TNF-dependent acute liver injury. Our results establish PAI-2 and TG2 as downstream mediators in the antiapoptotic response triggered upon TBK1 activation.

Abstract
Quiescent endothelial cells contain low concentrations of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2). However, its synthesis can be rapidly stimulated by a variety of inflammatory mediators. In this study, we provide evidence that PAI-2 interacts with proteasome and affects its activity in endothelial cells. To ensure that the PAI-2·proteasome complex is formed in vivo, both proteins were coimmunoprecipitated from endothelial cells and identified with specific antibodies. The specificity of this interaction was evidenced after (a) transfection of HeLa cells with pCMV-PAI-2 and coimmunoprecipitation of both proteins with anti-PAI-2 antibodies and (b) silencing of the PAI-2 gene using specific small interfering RNA (siRNA). Subsequently, cellular distribution of the PAI-2·proteasome complexes was established by immunogold staining and electron microscopy analyses. As judged by confocal microscopy, both proteins appeared in a diffuse cytosolic pattern, but they also could be found in a dense perinuclear and nuclear location. PAI-2 was not polyubiquitinated, suggesting that it bound to proteasome not as the substrate but rather as its inhibitor. Consistently, increased PAI-2 expression (a) abrogated degradation of degron analyzed after cotransfection of HeLa cells with pCMV-PAI-2 and pd2EGFP-N1, (b) prevented degradation of p53, as evidenced both by confocal microscopy and Western immunoblotting, and (c) inhibited proteasome cleavage of specific fluorogenic substrate. This suggests that PAI-2, in endothelial cells induced with inflammatory stimuli, can inhibit proteasome and thus tilt the balance favoring proapoptotic signaling.

Abstract
Many malignant tissues, including human papilloma virus (HPV)-associated cancers, express SerpinB2, also known as plasminogen activator inhibitor type-2 (PAI-2). Whether SerpinB2 is expressed by the HPV-transformed cancer cells, and if so, whether SerpinB2 is mutated or behaves aberrantly remains unclear. Here we show that HPV-transformed CaSki cells express high levels of constitutive wild-type SerpinB2, with cellular distribution, glycosylation, secretion, cleavage, induction and urokinase binding similar to that reported for primary cells. Neutralization of secreted SerpinB2 failed to affect CaSki cell migration or growth. Lentivirus-based over-expression of SerpinB2 also had no effect on growth, and we were unable to confirm a role for SerpinB2 in binding or regulating expression of the retinoblastoma protein. CaSki cells thus emerge as a useful tool for studying SerpinB2, with the physiological function of SerpinB2 expression by tumor cells remaining controversial. Using CaSki cells as a source of endogenous SerpinB2, we confirmed that SerpinB2 efficiently binds the proteasomal subunit member β1.

Abstract
Components of the plasminogen-plasmin system participate in a wide variety of physiologic and pathologic processes, including tumor growth, invasion and metastasis, through their effect on angiogenesis and cell migration. These components are found in most tumors and their expression not only signifies their function but also carries a prognostic value. Their expression is in turn modulated by cytokines and growth factors, many of which are up-regulated in cancer. Though both tPA and uPA are expressed in tumor cells, uPA with its receptor (uPAR) is mostly involved in cellular functions, while tPA with its receptor Annexin II on endothelial surface, regulates intravascular fibrin deposition. Among the inhibitors of fibrinolysis, PAI-1 is a major player in the pathogenesis of many vascular diseases as well as in cancer. Therapeutic interventions, either using plasminogen activators or experimental inhibitor agents against PAI-1, have shown encouraging results in experimental tumors but not been verified clinically.

Abstract
Macrophages infected with attenuated Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain H37Ra become apoptotic, limiting bacterial replication and facilitating antigen presentation. Here, we demonstrate that cells infected with H37Ra became apoptotic after formation of an apoptotic envelope on their surface was complete. This process required exposure of phosphatidylserine on the cell surface followed by deposition of the phospholipid-binding protein annexin-1 and then transglutaminase-mediated crosslinking of annexin-1 via its N-terminal domain. In macrophages infected with virulent strain H37Rv, in contrast, the N-terminal domain of annexin-1 was removed by proteolysis thus preventing completion of the apoptotic envelope, which results in macrophage death by necrosis. Host defense of virulent Mycobacterium tuberculosis thus occurs by failure to form the apoptotic envelope, which leads to macrophage necrosis and dissemination of infection in the lung.

Abstract
Extracellular plasminogen activator inhibitor type-2 (PAI-2) is a potent inhibitor of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) and also acts as a multifunctional protein. However, the biological activity of intracellular PAI-2, as well as its intracellular targets, until now remain an enigma. Here, we show that pRb2/p130 and Rb1/p105, but not p107, interact with PAI-2 in both the cytoplasm and nucleus of normal primary human corneal and conjunctival epithelial cells. We provided the first in vivo evidence that a specific fragment of the PAI-2 promoter is bound simultaneously by pRb2/ p130, PAI-2, E2F5, histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1), DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1), and histone methyltransferase (SUV39H1), in normal primary human corneal epithelial cells, and by pRb2/p130, PAI-2, E2F5, HDAC1, and DNMT1, in normal primary human conjunctiva epithelial cells. Our results strongly indicate a physiological interaction between pRb family members and PAI-2, suggesting the hypothesis that pRb2/p130 and PAI-2 may cooperate in modulating PAI-2 gene expression by chromatin remodeling, in normal corneal and conjunctival cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The human genome contains 13 clade B serpin genes at two loci, 6p25 and 18q21. The three genes at 6p25 all conform to a 7-exon gene structure with conserved intron positioning and phasing, however, at 18q21 there are two 7-exon genes and eight genes with an additional exon yielding an 8-exon structure. Currently, it is not known how these two loci evolved, nor which gene structure arose first--did the 8-exon genes gain an exon, or did the 7-exon genes lose one? Here we use the genomes of diverse vertebrate species to plot the emergence of clade B serpin genes and to identify the point at which the two genomic structures arose. RESULTS Analysis of the chicken genome indicated the presence of a single clade B serpin gene locus, containing orthologues of both human loci and both genomic structures. The frog genome and the genomes of three fish species presented progressively simpler loci, although only the 7-exon structure could be identified. The Serpinb12 gene contains seven exons in the frog genome, but eight exons in chickens and humans, indicating that the additional exon evolved in this gene. CONCLUSION We propose a new model for clade B serpin evolution from a single 7-exon gene (either Serpinb1 or Serpinb6). An additional exon was gained in the Serpinb12 gene between the tetrapoda and amniota radiations to produce the 8-exon structure. Both structures were then duplicated at a single locus until a chromosomal breakage occurred at some point along the mammalian lineage resulting in the two modern loci.

Abstract
Serpin superfamily proteins, most of which are serine protease inhibitors, share an unusual mechanism rooted in their conserved metastable tertiary structure. Although serpins have been identified in isolated members of archea, bacteria, and plants, a remarkable expansion is found in vertebrates. The chicken protein ovalbumin, a storage protein from egg white, lacking protease inhibitory activity, is an historical member of the superfamily and the founding member of the subgroup known as ov-serpins (ovalbumin-related serpins) or clade B serpins. In the human, ov-serpins include 13 proteins involved in the regulation of inflammation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and embryogenesis. Here, a detailed analysis of the chicken (Gallus gallus) genome identified 10 clade B serpin genes that map to a single approximately 150-kb locus and contain the signature protein sequence of serpins and the gene structure of ov-serpins, with either seven or eight exons. Orthologues of PAI-2 (SERPINB2), MNEI (SERPINB1), PI-6 (SERPINB6), and maspin (SERPINB5) are highly conserved. Comparison with human ov-serpins identified avian-specific and mammal-specific genes. Importantly, a unique model of mammalian ov-serpin evolution is revealed from the comparative analysis of the chicken and human loci. The presence of a subset of ov-serpin genes in zebrafish (Danio rerio) gives insight into the ancestral locus. This comparative genomic study provides a valuable perspective on the evolutionary pathway for the clade B serpins, allowing the identification of genes with functions that may have been conserved since the origin of vertebrates. In addition, it suggests that "newer" serpins, such as ovalbumin, have contributed to vertebrate adaptation.

Abstract
This study examined the effect of squamous cell carcinoma antigen 1 (SCCA1) and SCCA2 on TNF-alpha-induced cell death in human oral squamous cell carcinoma cell lines. The viability of MISK81-5 and sMISK cells treated with TNF-alpha dose-dependently decreased. The sMISK cells which stably overexpressed SCCA1 and SCCA2 cDNA showed a greater resistance against the cell death induced by TNF-alpha than the controls. Immunocytochemical staining for cytochrome c showed a punctate pattern in the cytoplasm of the TNF-alpha-untreated cells. After treatment with TNF-alpha, the punctate staining pattern was preserved in the transfectants, while this pattern disappeared in the controls. In the transfectants, the release of cytochrome c from the mitochondria to cytosol after TNF-alpha treatment was lower than in the controls. A decreased level of active caspase-9 was also observed in the transfectants. These results suggest that both SCCA1 and SCCA2 play a role in the prevention of TNF-alpha-induced cell death in vitro, by inhibiting the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c to some degree.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) inhibits the activation of the plasminogen activator system, the latter being involved in cancer growth and dissemination. Interestingly, PAI-1 is elevated in many solid tumours and this elevation has consistently been shown to be associated with shorter length of patient survival. This study aims to determine whether PAI-1 contributes to cancer cell growth by inhibiting apoptosis of tumour cells. It is shown that spontaneous transformation decreases cellular sensitivity to chemotherapy-mediated apoptosis of wild-type, but not PAI-1 gene-deficient, fibrosarcomas. PAI-1 gene-deficient and wild-type mice displayed similar sensitivity to treatment with etoposide, suggesting a differential effect of PAI-1 expression between cancer cells and normal cells. Thus, since PAI-1 appears to be an important factor in regulating apoptosis in cancer cells but not in normal cells, inhibitors of PAI-1 might be useful as sensitising pre-treatment for subsequent apoptosis-inducing anti-cancer therapy.

Abstract
The serine protease inhibitor SerpinB2 (PAI-2), a major product of differentiating squamous epithelial cells, has recently been shown to bind and protect the retinoblastoma protein (Rb) from degradation. In human papillomavirus type 18 (HPV-18)-transformed epithelial cells the expression of the E6 and E7 oncoproteins is controlled by the HPV-18 upstream regulatory region (URR). Here we illustrate that PAI-2 expression in the HPV-18-transformed cervical carcinoma line HeLa resulted in the restoration of Rb expression, which led to the functional silencing of transcription from the HPV-18 URR. This caused loss of E7 protein expression and restoration of multiple E6- and E7-targeted host proteins, including p53, c-Myc, and c-Jun. Rb expression emerged as sufficient for the transcriptional repression of the URR, with repression mediated via the C/EBPbeta-YY1 binding site (URR 7709 to 7719). In contrast to HeLa cells, where the C/EBPbeta-YY1 dimer binds this site, in PAI-2- and/or Rb-expressing cells the site was occupied by the dominant-negative C/EBPbeta isoform liver-enriched transcriptional inhibitory protein (LIP). PAI-2 expression thus has a potent suppressive effect on HPV-18 oncogene transcription mediated by Rb and LIP, a finding with potential implications for prognosis and treatment of HPV-transformed lesions.

Abstract
Maspin is a unique serpin with the ability to suppress certain types of malignant tumors. It is one of the few p53-targeted genes involved in tumor invasion and metastasis. With this in mind, we attempted to study the molecular mechanism behind this tumor suppression. Maspin-expressing mammary tumors are more susceptible to apoptosis in both implanted mammary tumors in vivo, a three-dimensional spheroid culture system, as well as in monolayer cell culture under lowered growth factors. Subcellular fractionation shows that a fraction of maspin (in both TM40D-Mp and mutant maspinDeltaN cells) translocates to the mitochondria. This translocation of maspin to the mitochondria is linked to the opening of the permeability transition pore, which in turn causes the loss of transmembrane potential, thus initiating apoptotic degradation. This translocation is absent in the other mutant, maspinDeltaRSL. It fails to cause any loss of membrane potential and also shows decreased caspase 3 levels, proving that translocation to the mitochondria is a key event for this increase in apoptosis by maspin. Suppression of maspin overexpression by RNA interference desensitizes cells to apoptosis. Our data indicate that maspin inhibits tumor progression through the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway. These findings will be useful for maspin-based therapeutic interventions against breast cancer.

Abstract
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is required for normal tissue development and pathological conditions such as tumorigenesis. Most solid tumors can not grow beyond a few millimeters without the recruitment of neovessels since cancer cells require access to blood vessels for nutrients and to escape the local environment and metastasize to other tissue and organ sites. Targeting tumor vessel endothelium therefore should serve as an effective therapy for cancers. Maspin is a serpin that exhibits antiangiogenic properties. In this report, we show that when maspin overexpression is targeted in vivo to endothelial cells, it actively induces endothelial cell apoptosis. Intravascular administration of adenovirus-maspin to mice bearing mammary tumors disrupts tumor-induced angiogenesis. Interestingly, tumor neovessels become leaky after maspin treatment, whereas normal mature vessels are not affected by maspin treatment. We further demonstrate that maspin directly induces endothelial cell apoptosis in vitro, and this effect is maspin specific. The induction of apoptosis is accompanied by changes in the expression of Bcl-2 family genes and is blocked by caspase inhibitors. In addition, the apoptotic effect is mediated by intracellular maspin and is dependent on the RSL region of maspin. Furthermore, we have shown that transient overexpression of Bcl-2 protected the HUVECs from maspin-mediated apoptosis, and the presence of both maspin and Bax accelerated the apoptosis process. These findings demonstrate that neovascular endothelial cells are highly sensitive to maspin level inside the cells. This property can be used for targeted therapy against tumor angiogenesis and metastasis.

Abstract
The purpose was to characterize plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) expression in normal human conjunctiva in vivo and in vitro. PAI-2 antigen was assayed by immunostaining and immunoblotting of extracts from normal human conjunctival epithelial lysates and conditioned media (CM) of cultured human conjunctival keratinocytes. Immunostaining of normal human conjunctival epithelia revealed that PAI-2 was found consistently in the superficial keratinocytes and, in some biopsies, also in the lower keratinocyte layers. In all cases, PAI-2 was concentrated around the cell periphery. In extracts of conjunctival epithelia and cultured conjunctival keratinocytes, PAI-2 had an apparent molecular weight of 45 kDa, consistent with the non-glycosylated form. The majority of PAI-2, approximately 90%, was cell associated, however, a small percentage of PAI-2 was released into the CM in a linear manner with time. PAI-2 in the conditioned medium had a higher molecular weight, consistent with a glycosylated form. Conjunctival PAI-2 was active, as shown by its ability to complex with a target enzyme, urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA). Although PAI-2 was detectable both in monolayer (i.e., relatively undifferentiated) conjunctival keratinocyte cultures as well as in stratified (i.e., more differentiated) cultures, steady state levels of PAI-2 were greater in the latter. PAI-2 is constitutively expressed by normal human conjunctival epithelial cells. The expression of PAI-2 throughout all epithelial layers in some biopsies of conjunctiva in vivo contrasts with the previously established distribution of PAI-2 in corneal epithelia, where it is present exclusively in the most superficial (i.e. most highly differentiated) cells. The role of PAI-2 in either tissue is unclear. However, we speculate that its distinct distribution in conjunctival versus corneal epithelia underscores inherent differences between these tissues, and may reflect specific functions of this proteinase inhibitor in both conjunctival and corneal epithelial cells.

Abstract
Depending on the redox-status, the serpin plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) can exist in either a stable monomeric or polymerogenic form. The latter form, which spontaneously forms loop-sheet polymers, has an open beta-sheet A and is stabilized by a disulfide bond between C79 (in the CD-loop) and C161 (at the bottom of PAI-2). Reduction of this bond results in a closing of the beta-sheet A and converts PAI-2 to a stable monomeric form. Here we show that the stable monomeric and polymerogenic forms of PAI-2 are fully interconvertible, depending on redox-status of the environment. Our intramolecular distance measurements indicate that the CD-loop folds mainly on one side of the stable monomeric form of the inhibitor. However, the loop can translocate about 54A to the bottom of PAI-2 so that the C79-C161 disulfide bond can form under oxidizing conditions. We show also that the redox-active C79 can form a disulfide-link to the matrix protein vitronectin, suggesting that vitronectin can stabilize active PAI-2 in extracellular compartments. PAI-2 is therefore a rare example of a redox-sensitive protein for which the activity and polymerization ability are regulated by reversible disulfide bond formation leading to major translocation of a loop and significant conformational changes in the molecule.

Abstract
Systemic scleroderma is a chronic disease, which leads to fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Fibroblasts obtained from patients with this disease demonstrate an activated state in culture. We, in this study, report strong, constitutive overexpression of plasminogen activator inhibitor type-2 (PAI-2) in scleroderma fibroblasts and demonstrate that this induction observed at the mRNA and protein level is dependent on serum addition. Induced PAI-2 protein levels were restricted to the non-glycosylated 47-kDa form, which is located intracellularly. Induction was stable for at least 12 passages. No modulation by fibrogenic cytokines--for example, transforming growth factor-beta1 or connective tissue growth factor--or by antagonizing IL-1 receptors was observed. The data indicate that scleroderma fibroblasts are more sensitive to the induction of PAI-2 expression than control fibroblasts by a presently unknown factor in serum.

Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play an important role in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), a cytokine secreted by VSMCs and macrophages in atherosclerotic lesions, regulates a variety of cellular functions of inflammatory cells and VSMCs by promoting cell growth and motility, which are critical for the initiation and progression of vascularlesions. Alpha lipoic acid (ALA), a well known antioxidant, acts as a pyruvate dehydrogenase cofactor in mitochondrial metabolism. Recently, we reported that ALA has many beneficial effects on vascular cells in atherosclerosis. The aim of the current study was to examine VSMCs, treated for 24 hours with TNFalpha (10 ng/mL) in the presence or absence of ALA (2 mM), for differential protein and genes expression using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and DNA microarray analysis, respectively. Using 2-DE, we identified proteins whose expression changed by at least 2.5-fold after TNFalpha stimulation. Proteins up-regulated by TNFalpha that were subsequently down-regulated in the presence of ALA were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry as plasminogen activator inhibitor-2, fetal liver LKB-interacting protein, osteoblast-specific factor 2, glucosidase II, cyclin-dependent kinase 3, endoplasmin precursor and glutathione synthetase. TNFalpha down-regulated proteins that were up-regulated in the presence of ALA were keratin 19, eukaryotic translation elongation factor and Rho GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha. Gene expression analysis using DNA microarray tools confirmed the up-regulation or down-regulation of some, but not all, of the proteins observed in ALA challenged, TNFalpha-treated cells. This data should provide valuable information about the underlying mechanisms of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
The urokinase plasminogen activator(uPA) system plays important roles in tumor cell invasion and metastasis. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of ATF-PAI2CD, a hybrid protein of the amino-terminal fragment of urokinase and mutant plasminogen activator inhibitor-2, on 95D cells in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, our results support a current hypothesis that fusion protein blocks tumor invasion and motility by inhibiting localized pericellular proteolysis. Treatment of 95D cells with ATF-PAI2CD resulted in a dose-dependent decrease in tumor-cell invasion through matrigel, and ATF-PAI2CD was much more effective than PAI-2CD. In addition, extracellular regular protein kinase (ERK1/2) expression was downregulated and the adhesion ability to fibronectin was increased in 95D cells treated with the fusion protein, which was confirmed by cell adhesion assay. A high-concentration of ATF-PAI2CD caused a significant reduction in tumor volume and weight in BALB/c (nu/nu) mice female inoculated with human 95D cells (5 x 10(6)); the antitumor effects were significant, which demonstrated a 67.9+/-4.2% reduction in tumor growth compared with control mice. The number of lymphatic metastasis was significantly reduced in mice treated with high- and middle- concentrations of ATF-PAI2CD, whereas a low-concentration of ATF-PAI2CD failed to exhibit any antimetastatic effects. In conclusion, the results suggested that the hybrid protein has therapeutic potential for lung carcinoma and other tumors to inhibit tumor invasion and metastasis.

Abstract
Maspin, a serine protease inhibitor (serpin), can suppress tumor growth and metastasis in vivo and tumor cell motility and invasion in vitro. This may occur through maspin-mediated inhibition of pericellular proteolysis. In a recent report, we provided evidence that maspin may also suppress tumor progression by enhancing cellular sensitivity to apoptotic stimuli. To our knowledge, maspin is the only proapoptotic serpin among all of the serpins implicated thus far in apoptosis regulation. The goal of the present study is to identify the specific target molecule(s), the modification of which by maspin renders tumor cells sensitive to chemotherapeutic agents. Our cellular, molecular, and biochemical studies demonstrate an essential role of Bax in the proapoptotic effect of maspin. First, Bax was up-regulated in maspin-transfected prostate and breast tumor cells, whereas the levels of other Bcl-2 family members including Bcl-2, Bcl-xl, and Bak remained unchanged. Second, on apoptosis induction, a greater amount of Bax was translocated from cytosol to mitochondria in maspin-transfected cells. After treatment with a Bax-silencing small interfering RNA, maspin-transfected cells became significantly more resistant to drug-induced apoptosis. Consistently, the release of cytochrome c and Smac/DIABLO from mitochondria was more responsive to apoptosis stimuli in maspin-transfected cells than in the mock-transfected cells. Third, the apoptosis induction of maspin-transfected cells was associated with increased activation of both caspase-8 and caspase-9. However, a caspase-9-specific inhibitor blocked the sensitization effect of maspin in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, demonstrating a rate-limiting role for caspase-9. In line with the central role of the Bax-mediated mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, maspin sensitized the apoptotic response of breast and prostate carcinoma cells to various drugs, ranging from death ligands to endoplasmic reticulum stress. The link between maspin and Bax up-regulation explains the loss of maspin-expressing tumor cells in invasive breast and prostate carcinomas. Our data reveal a novel mechanism for tumor suppressive maspin and suggest that maspin may be used as a modifier for apoptosis-based cancer therapy.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 (PAI-2) is well documented as an inhibitor of the extracellular serine proteinase urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and is expressed in activated monocytes and macrophages, differentiating keratinocytes, and many tumors. Here we show that PAI-2 has a novel intracellular function as a retinoblastoma protein (Rb)-binding protein. PAI-2 colocalized with Rb in the nucleus and inhibited the turnover of Rb, which led to increases in Rb protein levels and Rb-mediated activities. Although PAI-2 contains an LXCXE motif, Rb binding was primarily mediated by the C-D interhelical region of PAI-2, which was found to bind to the C pocket of Rb. The C-D interhelical region of PAI-2 contained a novel Rb-binding motif, termed the PENF homology motif, which is shared by many cellular and viral Rb-binding proteins. PAI-2 expression also protected Rb from the accelerated degradation mediated by human papillomavirus (HPV) E7, leading to recovery of Rb and inhibition of E6/E7 mRNA expression. Protection of Rb by PAI-2 begins to explain many of the diverse, uPA-independent phenotypes conferred by PAI-2 expression. These results indicate that PAI-2 may enhance Rb's tumor suppressor activity and suggest a potential therapeutic role for PAI-2 against HPV-transformed lesions.

Abstract
Migration and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are key events in atherosclerosis. However, little is known about alterations in gene expression upon transition of the quiescent, contractile SMC to the proliferative SMC. We performed serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) of cultured, human SMCs, either grown under resting circumstances or activated with an atherogenic stimulus. Analysis of tags, representing 47,209 and 47,259 mRNAs from a library of resting and activated SMCs, respectively, identified 105 tags induced and 52 tags repressed greater than fivefold. To evaluate the relevance in SMC biology of unmatched, regulated tags, we performed hierarchical clustering analysis, based on their expression profiles in public SAGE databases, and clustered these novel genes in distinct groups. The regulation in SMCs was confirmed by Northern blotting for representative genes of these groups. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-2 has not been associated with atherosclerosis before and was localized to atherosclerotic lesions.

Abstract
L-DNase II is derived from its precursor leucocyte elastase inhibitor (LEI) by post-translational modification. In vitro, the conversion of LEI into L-DNase II can be induced by incubation of LEI at an acidic pH. In this study, we proposed to analyze the effects of intracellular acidification on this transformation. Amiloride derivatives, like hexamethylene amiloride (HMA), are known to provoke a decrease of cytosolic pH by inhibiting the Na(+)/H(+) antiport. In BHK cells, treatment with HMA-induced apoptosis accompanied by an increase in L-DNase II immunoreactivity and L-DNase II enzymatic activity. Overexpression of L-DNase II precursor led to a significant increase of apoptosis in these cells supporting the involvement of L-DNase II in HMA induced apoptosis. As previously shown in other cells, etoposide-induced apoptosis did not activate L-DNase. On the contrary, LEI overexpression significantly increased cell survival in etoposide-induced apoptosis. Together these results suggest differential roles of LEI and L-DNase II in response to different types of apoptotic inducers.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is a serine protease inhibitor that is subject to regulation at the post-transcriptional level. At least two mRNA instability elements reside within the PAI-2 transcript; one in the coding region and another within the 3'-untranslated region (UTR). For the latter, a functional AU-rich motif (ARE) has been identified that provides a binding site for a number of cellular proteins, including the mRNA stability protein, HuR. In this study, we used the yeast three-hybrid system to screen a human leukocyte cDNA library to identify other proteins that associate with the PAI-2 ARE. This screen identified tristetraprolin (TTP) as a PAI-2 mRNA ARE-binding protein. UV cross-linking and immunoprecipitation experiments showed that TTP expressed in HEK293 cells could associate with the PAI-2 ARE in vitro. Co-transfection of plasmids expressing TTP and PAI-2 in HEK293 cells resulted in an increase in the decay rate of PAI-2 mRNA and loss of PAI-2 protein in a process that was dependent upon the PAI-2 3'-UTR. The 29-nt PAI-2 AU-rich element alone was also capable of conferring TTP-dependent mRNA instability to a reporter transcript. The extent of PAI-2 mRNA stability was remarkably sensitive to TTP since TTP-dependent PAI-2 mRNA decay occurred at TTP levels that were below Western blot detection limits. This study identifies TTP as a functional PAI-2 ARE-binding protein that modulates the post-transcriptional regulation of the PAI-2 gene.

Abstract
Maspin, a novel serine protease inhibitor (serpin), suppresses the growth and metastasis of breast tumor in vivo. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is unclear. In the current study, we report the first evidence that endogenous maspin expression in mammary carcinoma cells MDA-MB-435 enhanced staurosporine (STS)-induced apoptosis as judged by the increased fragmentation of DNA, increased proteolytic inactivation of poly-[ADP-ribose]-polymerase (PARP), as well as the increased activation of caspase-8 and caspase-3. In parallel, recombinant maspin did not directly regulate the proteolytic activities of either caspase-3 or caspase-8 in vitro. Consistent with this result, maspin expressing normal mammary epithelial cells underwent more rapid STS-induced apoptosis as compared to breast carcinoma cells. Interestingly, maspin transfectant cells did not undergo spontaneous apoptosis in the absence of STS. Moreover, neither purified maspin protein added from outside nor endogenous maspin secreted to the cell culture media sensitized cells to STS-induced apoptosis. To investigate the structural determinants of maspin in its apoptosis-sensitizing effect, MDA-MB-435 cells were also transfected with maspin/PAI-1 and PAI-1/maspin chimeric constructs resulting from swapping the N-terminal and the C-terminal domains between maspin and PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1). The resulting stable transfectant clones expressing maspin/PAI-1 and PAI-1/maspin, respectively, did not undergo spontaneous apoptosis, and were similarly inhibited as maspin transfectant cells in motility assay. Interestingly, however, expression of both maspin/PAI-1 and PAI-1/maspin in MDA-MB-435 cells failed to sensitize these cells to STS-induced apoptosis. Taken together, our evidence provides new insights into the complex molecular mechanisms of maspin that may suppress breast tumor progression not only at the step of invasion and motility, but also by regulating tumor cell apoptosis. The sensitizing effect of maspin on apoptosis is to be contrasted by the pro-survival effect of several other serpins.

Abstract
The squamous cell carcinoma antigens, SCCA1 and SCCA2, are members of the serine protease inhibitors (serpin) superfamily and are transcribed by two tandomly arrayed genes. A number of serpins are known to inhibit apoptosis in mammalian cells. In this study we demonstrate the ability of SCCA2 to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha)-induced apoptosis. HeLa cells stably transfected with SCCA2 cDNA had increased percentage cell survival and reduced DNA fragmentation. We investigated if the reactive centre loop (RCL) was necessary to allow SCCA2 to inhibit TNF alpha-mediated apoptosis. The RCL amino acids (E353Q, L354G, S355A), flanking the predicted cleavage site, were mutated and the resulting SCCA2 lost both the ability to inhibit cathepsin G and to protect stably transfected cells from TNF alpha-induced apoptosis. The presence of SCCA2 caused a decrease in the activation of caspase-3 upon induction with TNF alpha but no direct inhibition of caspases by SCCA2 has been found. Expression of cathepsin G was found to be induced in HeLa cells following treatment with TNF alpha. This protease has recently been shown to have a role in apoptosis through cleavage of substrates, so maybe the relevant target for SCCA2 in this system.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2) is a serine protease inhibitor that inhibits urokinase. Constitutive and regulated PAI-2 gene expression involves post-transcriptional events, and an AU-rich mRNA instability motif within the 3'-untranslated region of PAI-2 mRNA is required for this process (Maurer, F., Tierney, M., and Medcalf, R. L. (1999) Nucleic Acids Res. 27, 1664-1673). Here we show that instability determinants are present within various exons of the PAI-2 coding region, most notably within exon 4. Deletion of exon 4 from the full-length PAI-2 cDNA results in a doubling in the half-life of PAI-2 mRNA, whereas a 28-nucleotide region within exon 4 contains binding sites for cytoplasmic proteins. Inducible stabilization of PAI-2 mRNA in HT-1080 cells treated with phorbol ester and tumor necrosis factor does not alter the binding of proteins to the exon 4 instability determinant, but resulted in a transient increase in the binding of factors to the AU-rich RNA instability element. Hence, PAI-2 mRNA stability is influenced by elements located within both the coding region and the 3'-untranslated region and that cytoplasmic mRNA binding factors may influence steady state and inducible PAI-2 mRNA expression. Finally a 10-nucleotide region flanking the exon 4 protein-binding site is homologous to instability elements within five other transcripts, suggesting that a common coding region determinant may exist.

Abstract
Hurpin (protease inhibitor 13; PI13) is the most recently identified member of the ovalbumin family of serine protease inhibitors (serpins). It is expressed in human epidermal keratinocytes and is downregulated by exposure to ultraviolet irradiation. A role for hurpin in the proliferation or differentiation of keratinocytes has been proposed because of its strong expression in proliferating cells and its deregulated expression in the lesional epidermis of psoriatic patients. Here, we report the cloning, chromosomal localization, and complete sequence of the human hurpin gene. By PCR-based screening of the GeneBridge 4 radiation hybrid panel, we mapped the gene to chromosome 18q21.3, close to a known cluster of ov-serpin genes. Using the full-length cDNA for hurpin, we identified two clones from an arrayed genomic P1 placental library that contain the entire hurpin gene. Sequencing revealed that the gene covers 12.253 kb and is comprised of eight exons and seven introns. The exon--intron boundaries are identical in position and phasing to those in other members of the 18q serpin gene cluster, and analysis of hurpin variants indicated that modified functional inhibitors, differing only in the CD interhelical loop, can be generated by differential splicing of exon 3. These data show that hurpin is a typical member of the 18q ovalbumin-serpins most closely related to the serpins squamous-cell carcinoma antigens 1 and 2.

Abstract
We present a comprehensive alignment and phylogenetic analysis of the serpins, a superfamily of proteins with known members in higher animals, nematodes, insects, plants, and viruses. We analyze, compare, and classify 219 proteins representative of eight major and eight minor subfamilies, using a novel technique of consensus analysis. Patterns of sequence conservation characterize the family as a whole, with a clear relationship to the mechanism of function. Variations of these patterns within phylogenetically distinct groups can be correlated with the divergence of structure and function. The goals of this work are to provide a carefully curated alignment of serpin sequences, to describe patterns of conservation and divergence, and to derive a phylogenetic tree expressing the relationships among the members of this family. We extend earlier studies by Huber and Carrell as well as by Marshall, after whose publication the serpin family has grown functionally, taxonomically, and structurally. We used gene and protein sequence data, crystal structures, and chromosomal location where available. The results illuminate structure–function relationships in serpins, suggesting roles for conserved residues in the mechanism of conformational change. The phylogeny provides a rational evolutionary framework to classify serpins and enables identification of conserved amino acids. Patterns of conservation also provide an initial point of comparison for genes identified by the various genome projects. New homologs emerging from sequencing projects can either take their place within the current classification or, if necessary, extend it.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor 2 (PAI-2) has been shown to inhibit apoptosis in transfected cells. We have investigated this phenomenon in activated human monocytes, which are a physiological source of intracellular PAI-2. Apoptosis of monocytes was rapidly induced by removal of serum, addition of hydrogen peroxide, or binding of a monoclonal antibody to Fas. Treatment of monocytes with thrombin or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) inhibited apoptosis of monocytes and also up-regulated intracellular PAI-2. Increased apoptosis was accompanied with increased activity of caspases 3 and 8. Thrombin or LPS treatment of monocytes decreased the activity of both caspases, which correlated with protection from apoptosis. The role for PAI-2 in protection of monocytes from apoptosis was studied. Monocytes were transfected with antisense oligonucleotides that blocked PAI-2 antigen, and antisense for PAI-2 had no effect on apoptosis of monocytes. No interaction was evident between PAI-2 and recombinant caspases 3 and 8 in vitro. PAI-2 was not a substrate for caspases during apoptosis of monocytes, although some cleavage of recombinant PAI-2 by caspase 3 was evident in vitro. This study shows that thrombin or LPS protected monocytes from apoptosis and that PAI-2 did not mediate this inhibitory effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cowpox virus expresses the serpin CrmA (cytokine response modifier A) in order to avoid inflammatory and apoptotic responses of infected host cells. The targets of CrmA are members of the caspase family of proteases that either initiate the extrinsic pathway of apoptosis (caspases 8 and 10) or trigger activation of the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1beta and interleukin-18 (caspase 1). RESULTS We have determined the structure of a cleaved form of CrmA to 2.26 A resolution. CrmA has the typical fold of a cleaved serpin, even though it lacks the N-terminal half of the A helix, the entire D helix, and a portion of the E helix that are present in all other known serpins. The reactive-site loop of CrmA was mutated to contain the optimal substrate recognition sequence for caspase 3; however, the mutation only marginally increased the ability of CrmA to inhibit caspase 3. Superposition of the reactive-site loop of alpha1-proteinase inhibitor on the cleaved CrmA structure provides a model for virgin CrmA that can be docked to caspase 1, but not to caspase 3. CONCLUSIONS CrmA exemplifies viral economy, selective pressure having resulted in a 'minimal' serpin that lacks the regions not needed for structural integrity or inhibitory activity. The docking model provides an explanation for the selectivity of CrmA. Our demonstration that engineering optimal substrate recognition sequences into the CrmA reactive-site loop fails to generate a good caspase 3 inhibitor is consistent with the docking model.

Abstract
Proteinases and their inhibitors are very likely to function as mediators or regulators of the hair growth cycle. Very little information is currently available, however, regarding the specific inhibitors present in human hair follicles at defined stages of their growth cycle. In this study we have analyzed two proteinase inhibitors, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 and protease nexin 1, in human hair follicles using in situ hybridization and/or immunohistochemistry. Protease nexin 1 mRNA was found only in the mesenchymal population of the hair follicle, i.e., the follicular papilla cells, during the anagen but not the catagen phase. In contrast, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 was localized to several epithelial populations in the follicle: the more differentiated cells of the infundibulum; the companion layer in anagen follicles; and the single layer of outer root sheath cells directly abutting the club hair in telogen follicles. At least some of the plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 in human follicles appears to be in the relaxed form, as evidenced by strong staining with an antibody that is specific for this form of the inhibitor. This suggests that plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 interacts with and is cleaved by an endogenous follicular proteinase and supports a constitutive role for this inhibitor in human follicular epithelia.

Abstract
Therapeutic interference with virus-cell surface receptor interactions represents a viable antiviral strategy. Here we demonstrate that cytoplasmic expression of the serine protease inhibitor (serpin), plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2), affords a high level of protection from lytic infection by multiple human picornaviruses. The antiviral action of PAI-2 was mediated primarily through transcriptional down-regulation of the following virus receptors: intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1, a cellular receptor for the major group of rhinoviruses), decay-accelerating factor (a cellular receptor for echoviruses and coxsackieviruses), and to a lesser extent the coxsackie-adenovirus receptor protein (a cellular receptor for group B coxsackieviruses and group C adenoviruses). Expression of related cell surface receptors, including membrane cofactor protein and the poliovirus receptor, remained unaffected. These findings suggest that PAI-2 and/or related serpins may form the basis of novel antiviral strategies against picornavirus infections and also therapeutic interventions against ICAM-1-mediated respiratory inflammation.

Abstract
We have previously reported that the putative cytoprotective protease inhibitor, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 2 (PAI-2), is specifically cleaved during okadaic acid-induced apoptosis in a myeloid leukaemic cell line (Br J Cancer (1994) 70: 834-840). HL-60 cells exposed to okadaic acid and camptothecin underwent morphological and biochemical changes typical of apoptosis, including internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and PAI-2 cleavage. Significant endogenous PAI-2 cleavage was observed 9 h after exposure to okadaic acid; thus correlating with other signs of macromolecular degradation, like internucleosomal DNA fragmentation. In camptothecin-treated cells, PAI-2 cleavage was an early event, detectable after 2 h of treatment, and preceding internucleosomal DNA fragmentation. The caspase I selective protease inhibitor, YVAD-cmk, inhibited internucleosomal DNA fragmentation and PAI-2 cleavage of okadaic acid and camptothecin-induced apoptotic cells. YVAD-cmk rather sensitively and non-toxically inhibited camptothecin-induced morphology, but not okadaic acid-induced morphology. In in vitro experiments recombinant PAI-2 was not found to be a substrate for caspase I. The results suggest that caspase I selective protease inhibition could antagonize parameters coupled to the execution phase of okadaic acid- and camptothecin-induced apoptosis, but not the commitment to cell death.
