Abstract
Extracellular lysophospholipids (lysophosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylcholine, sphingosine 1-phosphate, etc.), which are synthesized from phospholipids in the cell membrane, act as lipid mediators, and mediate various cellular responses in constituent cells in the respiratory system, such as contraction, proliferation, migration, and cytoskeletal organization. In addition to these effects, the expression of the adhesion molecules is enhanced by these extracellular lysophospholipids in pulmonary endothelial cells. These effects are exerted via specific G protein-coupled receptors. Rho, Ras, and phospholipase C (PLC) have been proven to be their signaling pathways, related to Ca2+ signaling due to Ca2+ dynamics and Ca2+ sensitization. Therefore, lysophospholipids probably induce pulmonary vascular remodeling through phenotype changes in smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and fibroblasts, likely resulting in acute respiratory distress syndrome due to vascular leak, pulmonary hypertension, and pulmonary fibrosis. Moreover, lysophospholipids induce the recruitment of inflammatory cells to the lungs via the enhancement of adhesion molecules in endothelial cells, potentially leading to the development of asthma. These results demonstrate that lysophospholipids may be novel therapeutic targets not only for injury, fibrosis, and hypertension in the lung, but also for asthma. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms of the effects of lysophospholipids on the respiratory system, and the possibility of precision medicine targeting lysophospholipids as treatable traits of these diseases.

The Autotaxin-LPA Axis Emerges as a Novel Regulator of Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotypic Modulation during Intimal Hyperplasia. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:2913. [PMID: 36769255 PMCID: PMC9917461 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2022] [Revised: 01/24/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Neointimal hyperplasia is characterized by a loss of the contractile phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Our group has recently shown that VSMC proliferation and migration are mediated by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) during restenosis, but the role of autotaxin (ATX; lysophospholipase D), which produces LPA, remains unclear. Endothelial denudation of the mouse carotid artery was performed to induce neointimal hyperplasia, and the extent of damage caused by the ATX-LPA axis was assessed in VSMCs. We observed the upregulation of ATX activity (p < 0.0002) in the injured carotid artery using an AR2 probe fluorescence assay. Further, the tissue carotid LPA levels were elevated 2.7-fold in carotid vessels, augmenting neointimal hyperplasia. We used an electrical cell-substrate impedance sensor (ECIS) to measure VSMC proliferation and migration. Treatment with an ATX inhibitor (PF8380) or LPA receptor inhibitor (Ki16425) attenuated VSMC proliferation (extracellular signal-regulated kinases) activity and migration in response to recombinant ATX. Indeed, PF8380 treatment rescued the aggravated post-wire injury neointima formation of carotid arteries. The upregulation of ATX following vessel injury leads to LPA production in VSMCs, favoring restenosis. Our observations suggest that inhibition of the ATX-LPA axis could be therapeutically targeted in restenosis to minimize VSMC phenotypic modulation and inflammation after vascular injury.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a well-characterized bioactive lipid mediator, which is involved in development, physiology, and pathological processes of the cardiovascular system. LPA can be produced both inside cells and in biological fluids. The majority of extracellularLPAis produced locally by the secreted lysophospholipase D, autotaxin (ATX), through its binding to various β integrins or heparin sulfate on cell surface and hydrolyzing various lysophospholipids. LPA initiates cellular signalling pathways upon binding to and activation of its G protein-coupled receptors (LPA1-6). LPA has potent effects on various blood cells and vascular cells involved in the development of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and aortic valve sclerosis. LPA signalling drives cell migration and proliferation, cytokine production, thrombosis, fibrosis, as well as angiogenesis. For instance, LPA promotes activation and aggregation of platelets through LPA5, increases expression of adhesion molecules in endothelial cells, and enhances expression of tissue factor in vascular smooth muscle cells. Furthermore, LPA induces differentiation of monocytes into macrophages and stimulates oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDLs) uptake by macrophages to form foam cells during formation of atherosclerotic lesions through LPA1-3. This review summarizes recent findings of the roles played by ATX, LPA and LPA receptors (LPARs) in atherosclerosis and calcific aortic valve disease. Targeting the ATX-LPAR axis may have potential applications for treatment of patients suffering from various cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
The lipid phosphate phosphatase-related proteins (LPPRs), also known as plasticity-related genes (PRGs), are classified as a new brain-enriched subclass of the lipid phosphate phosphatase (LPP) superfamily. They induce membrane protrusions, neurite outgrowth or dendritic spine formation in cell lines and primary neurons. However, the exact roles of LPPRs and the mechanisms underlying their effects are not certain. Here, we present the results of a large-scale proteome analysis to determine LPPR1-interacting proteins using co-immunoprecipitation coupled to mass spectrometry. We identified putative LPPR1-binding proteins involved in various biological processes. Most interestingly, we identified the interaction of LPPR1 with its family member LPPR3, LPPR4 and LPPR5. Their interactions were characterized by co-immunoprecipitation and colocalization analysis using confocal and super-resolution microscopy. Moreover, co-expressing two LPPR members mutually elevated their protein levels, facilitated their plasma membrane localization and resulted in an increased induction of membrane protrusions as well as the phosphorylation of S6 ribosomal protein. Taken together, we revealed a new functional cooperation between LPPR family members and discovered for the first time that LPPRs likely exert their function through forming complex with its family members.

Lysophosphatidic acid induces integrin activation in vascular smooth muscle and alters arteriolar myogenic vasoconstriction. Front Physiol 2014; 5:413.

Abstract
In vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) increased integrin adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, as well as the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) are strongly stimulated by lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). We hypothesized that LPA-induced generation of ROS increases integrin adhesion to the ECM. Using atomic force microscopy (AFM) we determined the effects of LPA on integrin adhesion to fibronectin (FN) in VSMC isolated from rat (Sprague-Dawley) skeletal muscle arterioles. In VSMC, exposure to LPA (2 μM) doubled integrin-FN adhesion compared to control cells (P < 0.05). LPA-induced integrin-FN adhesion was reduced by pre-incubation with antibodies against β1 and β3 integrins (50 μg/ml) by 66% (P < 0.05). Inhibition of LPA signaling via blockade of the LPA G-protein coupled receptors LPAR1 and LPAR3 with 10 μM Ki16425 reduced the LPA-enhanced adhesion of VSCM to FN by 40% (P < 0.05). Suppression of ROS with tempol (250 μM) or apocynin (300 μM) also reduced the LPA-induced FN adhesion by 47% (P < 0.05) and 59% (P < 0.05), respectively. Using confocal microscopy, we observed that blockade of LPA signaling, with Ki16425, reduced ROS by 45% (P < 0.05), to levels similar to control VSMC unexposed to LPA. In intact isolated arterioles, LPA (2 μM) exposure augmented the myogenic constriction response to step increases in intraluminal pressure (between 40 and 100 mm Hg) by 71% (P < 0.05). The blockade of LPA signaling, with Ki16425, decreased the LPA-enhanced myogenic constriction by 58% (P < 0.05). Similarly, blockade of LPA-induced ROS release with tempol or gp91 ds-tat decreased the LPA-enhanced myogenic constriction by 56% (P < 0.05) and 55% (P < 0.05), respectively. These results indicate that, in VSMC, LPA-induced integrin activation involves the G-protein coupled receptors LPAR1 and LPAR3, and the production of ROS, and that LPA may play an important role in the control of myogenic behavior in resistance vessels through ROS modulation of integrin activity.
