Abstract
Considering the occurrence of serious heart failure in a gene knockout mouse of PIP5Kγ and in congenital abnormal cases in humans in which the gene was defective as reported by others, the present study attempted to localize PIP5Kγ in the heart during prenatal stages. It was done on the basis of the supposition that phenotypes caused by gene mutation of a given molecule are owed to the functional deterioration of selective cellular sites normally expressing it at significantly higher levels in wild mice. PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity was the highest in the heart at E10 in contrast to almost non-significant levels of the immunoreactivity in surrounding organs and tissues such as liver. The immunoreactivity gradually weakened in the heart with the prenatal age, and it was at non-significant levels at newborn and postnatal stages. Six patterns in localization of distinct immunoreactivity for PIP5Kγ were recognized in cardiomyocytes: (1) its localization on the plasma membranes and subjacent cytoplasm without association with short myofibrils and (2) its localization on them as well as short myofibrils in association with them in cardiomyocytes of early differentiation at E10; (3) its spot-like localization along long myofibrils in cardiomyocytes of advanced differentiation at E10; (4) rare occurrences of such spot-like localization along long myofibrils in cardiomyocytes of advanced differentiation at E14; (5) its localization at Z-bands of long myofibrils; and (6) its localization at intercellular junctions including the intercalated discs in cardiomyocytes of advanced differentiation at E10 and E14, especially dominant at the latter stage. No distinct localization of PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity of any patterns was seen in the heart at E18 and P1D. The present finding suggests that sites of PIP5Kγ-appearance and probably of its high activity in cardiomyocytes are shifted from the plasma membranes through short myofibrils subjacent to the plasma membranes and long myofibrils, to Z-bands as well as to the intercalated discs during the mid-term gestation. It is further suggested that PIP5Kγ is involved in the differentiation of myofibrils as well as intercellular junctions including the intercalated discs at later stages of the mid-term gestation. Failures in its involvement in the differentiation of these structural components are thus likely to cause the mid-term gestation lethality of the mutant mice for PIP5Kγ.

The Silencing of GhPIP5K2 and GhPIP5K22 Weakens Abiotic Stress Tolerance in Upland Cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum). Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:1511. [PMID: 38338791 PMCID: PMC10855785 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25031511] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/21/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 01/12/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks), essential enzymes in the phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway, are crucial for the abiotic stress responses and the overall growth and development of plants. However, the GhPIP5Ks had not been systematically studied, and their function in upland cotton was unknown. This study identified a total of 28 GhPIP5Ks, and determined their chromosomal locations, gene structures, protein motifs and cis-acting elements via bioinformatics analysis. A quantitative real-time PCR (qRT‒PCR) analysis showed that most GhPIP5Ks were upregulated under different stresses. A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) assay indicated that the superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), and catalase (CAT) activities were significantly decreased, while malondialdehyde (MDA) content were significantly increased in GhPIP5K2- and GhPIP5K22-silenced upland cotton plants under abiotic stress. Furthermore, the expression of the stress marker genes GhHSFB2A, GhHSFB2B, GhDREB2A, GhDREB2C, GhRD20-1, GhRD29A, GhBIN2, GhCBL3, GhNHX1, GhPP2C, GhCBF1, GhSnRK2.6 and GhCIPK6 was significantly decreased in the silenced plants after exposure to stress. These results revealed that the silencing of GhPIP5K2 and GhPIP5K22 weakened the tolerance to abiotic stresses. These discoveries provide a foundation for further inquiry into the actions of the GhPIP5K gene family in regulating the response and resistance mechanisms of cotton to abiotic stresses.

Abstract
To explore the function of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) in tomatoes, members of the tomato PIP5K family were identified and characterized using bioinformatic methods, and their expression patterns were also analyzed under salt stress and in different tissues. Twenty-one PIP5K members-namely, SlPIP5K1-SlPIP5K21-were identified from ten chromosomes, and these were divided into three groups according to a phylogenetic analysis. Further bioinformatic analysis showed four pairs of collinear relationships and fragment replication events among the SlPIP5K family members. To understand the possible roles of the SlPIP5Ks, a cis-acting element analysis was conducted, which indicated that tomato PIP5Ks could be associated with plant growth, hormones, and stress responses. We further validated the results of the in silico analysis by integrating RNA-seq and qRT-PCR techniques for salt- and hormone-treated tomato plants. Our results showed that SlPIP5K genes exhibited tissue- and treatment-specific patterns, and some of the SlPIP5Ks exhibited significantly altered expressions after our treatments, suggesting that they might be involved in these stresses. We selected one of the SlPIP5Ks that responded to our treatments, SlPIP5K2, to further understand its subcellular localization. Our results showed that SlPIP5K2 was located on the membrane. This study lays a foundation for the analysis of the biological functions of the tomato SlPIP5K genes and can also provide a theoretical basis for the selection and breeding of new tomato varieties and germplasm innovation, especially under salt stress.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the 1950s, Hokin conducted initial studies on phosphoinositide turnover/cycle in salivary glandular cells. From these studies, the idea emerged that receptor-mediated changes in intramembranous levels of phosphoinositides represent an early step in the stimulus-response pathway. Based on this idea and the general view that knowledge of the exact localization of a given endogenous molecule in cells in situ is important for understanding its functional significance, we have reviewed available information about the localization of several representative phosphoinositide-signaling molecules in the salivary glands in situ in mice. HIGHLIGHT We focused on phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase, phosphatidylinositol 4 phosphate 5-kinase α, β, γ, phospholipase Cβ, muscarinic cholinoceptors 1 and 3, diacylglycerol kinase ζ, phospholipase D1 and 2, ADP-ribosylation factor 6 and its exchange factors for Arf6, and cannabinoid receptors. These molecules individually exhibit differential localization in a spatiotemporal manner in the exocrine glands, making it possible to deduce their functional significance, such as their involvement in secretion and cell differentiation. CONCLUSION Although phosphoinositide-signaling molecules whose in situ localization in glandular cells has been clarified are still limited, the obtained information on their localization suggests that their functional significance is more valuable in glandular ducts than in acini. It thus suggests the necessity of greater attention to the ducts in their physio-pharmacological analyses. The purpose of this review is to encourage more in situ localization studies of phosphoinositide-signaling molecules with an aim to further understand their possible involvement in the pathogenesis of salivary gland diseases.

Discrete localization patterns of PIP5Kγ and PLCβ3 working sequentially in phosphoinositide-cycle within mouse sensory neuron somata. Microsc Res Tech 2023; 86:351-358. [PMID: 36579633 DOI: 10.1002/jemt.24276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 12/11/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022]
Abstract
It is known that phosphatidylinositol phosphate 5 kinase (PIP5K) γ and phospholipase C (PLC) β3, working sequentially in the phosphoinositide cycle, are localized in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) somata and are involved in the regulation of pain and related sensations. However, the sites of their involvement have remained to be clarified. In the present study, immunoreactivity for PLCβ3 was distinct only in the central process of mouse DRG, but not in its peripheral process, in contrast to distinct PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity in both peripheral and central DRG processes. No nerve terminals showing immunoreactivity for PLCβ3 were detected in any peripheral sensory fields, similar to PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity. In DRG somata, PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity was rather confined to the neurolemma in which dots and threads were discerned in 3D bright field light microscopy. This feature well corresponded to its discontinuous localization along the plasma membranes in immuno-electron microscopy. In contrast, PLCβ3-immunoreactivity occurred diffusely throughout the somata, but did not take distinct appearance of immunoreaction on neurolemma or plasma membranes, unlike PIP5Kγ-immunoreactivity. In addition, satellite glial cells were immunonegative for PLCβ3, but immunopositive for PIP5Kγ. The involvement of PLCβ3 in regulation of pain and related sensations is thus suggested to be mainly exerted at levels of the DRG soma and its upstream, but to be less significant in the peripheral sensory fields, similar to PIP5Kγ. The possibility is also suggested that PIP, PIP5Kγ-target, is localized heterogeneously, but PIP2, PLCβ3-target, is localized homogenously over the plane of the neuronal plasma membranes. RESEARCH HIGHLIGHTS: PIP5Kγ, different from PLCβ3, was localized heterogeneously on neuronal membranes, and this difference was demonstrated in 3D-bright field immuno-light and electron microscopy. Either PIP5Kγ or PLCβ3 was not detected in peripheral nerve terminals.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) produced by phosphatidylinositol phosphate 5 kinase (PIP5K) plays not only as a precursor of second messengers in the phosphoinositide signal transduction, but also multiple roles influencing a variety of cellular activities. From this viewpoint, the present study attempted to localize PIP5Kα in the ovaries in situ of adult mice. PIP5Kα-immunoreactivity was confined to the surfaces of lipid droplets (LDs) and their adjacent cytoplasm in progesterone-producing cells of the interstitial glands, corpora lutea and theca interna. The LDs often contained membranous tubules/lamellae along their surfaces and within their interior whose membranes were continuous with those delineating LDs composed of a monolayer of phospholipids and were partially PIP5Kα-immunoreactive. Although granulosa cells of healthy-looking follicles were immunonegative, as the atresia progressed, PIP5Kα-immunoreactivity first appeared in sparsely dispersed dot forms in mural cells of the follicular epithelia, and then were dominant in almost all mural cells that remained after desquamation of the antral cells. The present study provides evidence suggesting that PI(4,5)P2 locally synthesized by PIP5K in LDs is involved in the lipid transfer between lipid droplets (LDs) and the endoplasmic reticulum, which eventually regulates ovarian progesterone production through control of multiple dynamic activities of LDs. It is also suggested that PIP5Kα and PI(4,5)P2 are implicated in the modulation of programmed cell death and/or acquiring the ability of progesterone production in some follicular cells surviving atresia.

Genome-wide systematic characterization and expression analysis of the phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases in plants. Gene 2020; 756:144915.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinases (PIP5Ks) are key enzymes in the process of phosphatidylinositol signaling pathway and have essential functions in growth, development, and biotic and abiotic stresses responses in plants. However, the evolutionary history and patterns of PIP5K genes in plants have not been examined systematically. Here, we use whole-genome sequences from eight plant species of land plants and algae to define the evolutionary relationships between these proteins in plants. 85 PIP5K genes were identified and divided into two subfamilies based on phylogenetic analyses. PIP5K members in subfamily II underwent several duplication events in land plants, resulting in multiple gene copies in angiosperms, while PIP5K members in subfamily I displayed low-copy numbers and lost in eudicots. Furthermore, PIP5K genes within the same subfamily had similar motifs and intron/exon features. Nine duplicated soybean gene pairs, four duplicated Arabidopsis gene pairs and two rice duplicated gene pairs were identified and many of them localized in synteny genomic regions. These duplicate events were formed by Whole-genome duplication (WGD)/segmental duplications. In addition, the ratios of non-synonymous to synonymous substitutions (Ka/Ks) showed that the PIP5K family had undergone purifying selection in higher plants. Expression analysis showed that PIP5K genes had complex and variable expression patterns in different developmental stages. The specificity of these genes is utilized to provide evidence for selective expression in the evolutionary process.

Different expression and subcellular localization of vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter in ducts of major salivary glands: An in situ study in mice. Arch Oral Biol 2020; 113:104689. [PMID: 32135333 DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2020.104689] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2019] [Revised: 02/25/2020] [Accepted: 02/26/2020] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to clarify the mechanism of GABA (□-amino butyric acid)-signaling in the salivary glands by localization of vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter, a key molecule in GABA-synthesis. DESIGN Parotid, sublingual and submandibular glands of mice at various postnatal stages were examined in immuno-light and electron microscopy as well as immuno-blotting. RESULTS Expression for vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter was detected in parotid and sublingual glands of both sexes and female submandibular gland throughout postnatal development, while it was negligible in male submandibular glands at and after puberty. The expression in female submandibular glands attenuated after testosterone injection. The immunoreactivity was localized in striated ductal cells, but not acinar cells, in the salivary glands, and it occurred in association with intracellular and plasma membranes of the cells. It also occurred in myoepithelial and vascular smooth muscle cells. CONCLUSIONS GABA-signaling was suggested to be a significant signaling pathway in salivary ductal cells, which was suppressed in male submandibular glands at and after puberty. The suppression in the submandibular duct was by testosterone. In addition, the participation of vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter in GABA signaling through plasma membranes of the ductal cells was suggested. The significance of occurrence of the immunoreactivity in myoepithelial and smooth muscle cells remains to be further elucidated in terms of implication in GABA signaling.

DEVELOPMENTAL AND COMPARATIVE IMMUNOLOGY 2020; 104:103572.

Abstract
Ticks are major parasites of domestic livestock, wildlife, and humans. After a tick bite, diverse cutaneous manifestations initially occur in the bitten area in the host. In this study, a label-free proteomics approach was applied to identify the differentially ubiquitinated proteins (DUPs) induced by tick-bitten in the skin. In total, 113 proteins were ubiquitinated in rabbit skin during tick bitten period, among which the ubiquitination levels of 43 proteins were altered. These DUPs in skin subjected to tick-bitten were enriched in metabolic processes, immune processes, and protein degradation processes. Bioinformatic analysis suggested that tick bitten may regulate the glycolysis pathway in host skin via differential ubiquitination of GAPDH, HK1 and TPI1, while regulate the ubiquitin-proteasome system, the MHC-I and MHC-II antigen-presenting pathways, and the HIF-1 signaling pathway via differential ubiquitination of MEK1, PSMC3, PSMA6, MHC-II and PSMD1. Moreover, PSMC3, PSMA6, PSMD1 and MEK1 were demonstrated as novel targets of ubiquitination. This study provides the first overview of ubiquitination in host skin affected by tick bitten and broadens our knowledge of the molecular mechanism involved in tick bitten.

Localization of phospholipase C β3 in the major salivary glands of adult mice. Acta Histochem 2019; 121:484-490.

Abstract
Phospholipase C (PLC)β has a role in saliva secretion by controlling intracellular Ca2+via its product, IP3. The present study was attempted to localize PLCβ isoforms in mouse salivary glands in situ. A single major band was detected for PLCβ3 in immunoblots of the parotid and sublingual glands (PG, SLG), while no such band was seen in the submandibular gland (SMG). No bands were detected for PLCβ1 or 4 in the three glands. In immuno-light microscopy of PG and SLG, substantial immunoreactivity for PLCβ3 was seen in the cytoplasm including the plasmalemma of almost all ductal cells, while no distinct immunoreactivity was discerned in most acinar cells except for sublingual demilune cells. Numerous ductal cells exhibited higher immunoreactivity for PLCβ3 in their apical/supranuclear cell domain including the plasmalemma than in the basal/infranuclear domain, indicating an apico-basal polarity. In immuno-gold electron microscopy of PG ducts and SLG ducts and demilunes, most gold particles were found in association with plasma membranes as well as various intracellular membranes, most of which formed small oblong or flattened vesicles and vacuoles. A few particles were seen without association with any membranous structures. The present finding supports the previous physio-pharmacological result that Ca2+-signaling proteins as well as initial intracellular Ca2+ changes occur in the apical cell domain including the plasma membranes of the exocrine cells.
