Abstract
Recent studies have highlighted the importance of autophagy and particularly non-canonical autophagy in the development and progression of acute pancreatitis (a frequent disease with considerable morbidity and significant mortality). An important early event in the development of acute pancreatitis is the intrapancreatic activation of trypsinogen, (i.e., formation of trypsin) leading to the autodigestion of the organ. Another prominent phenomenon associated with the initiation of this disease is vacuolisation and specifically the formation of giant endocytic vacuoles in pancreatic acinar cells. These organelles develop in acinar cells exposed to several inducers of acute pancreatitis (including taurolithocholic acid and high concentrations of secretagogues cholecystokinin and acetylcholine). Notably, early trypsinogen activation occurs in the endocytic vacuoles. These trypsinogen-activating organelles undergo activation, long-distance trafficking, and non-canonical autophagy. In this review, we will discuss the role of autophagy in acute pancreatitis and particularly focus on the recently discovered LAP-like non-canonical autophagy (LNCA) of endocytic vacuoles.

Abstract
The exocrine pancreatic acinar cell is unique for its rapid protein synthesis and packaging in zymogen granules (ZGs). However, while crucial to the pathogenesis of pancreatitis, the signaling involved in the transit of proteins via the Golgi is poorly understood in these cells. Noting the evidence of c-Src in regulating transit of cargo via the Golgi in other systems, we explored this in acinar cells. Stimulation of ZG formation with dexamethasone activated Src and increased the Golgi area in acinar cells. c-Src localized to the microsomes of acinar cells on immunofluorescence and subcellular fractionation. While other Src family members had no effect on the Golgi markers P115 and GM130, active c-Src increased the Golgi area these stained, extending them into the ER. Src inhibition reduced amylase staining outside the Golgi and increased it in a stack like Golgi morphology. In vivo pharmacologic inhibition or acinar specific genetic deletion of c-Src reduced ZG number and staining of amylase in ZGs along with increasing amylase retention in the microsomal fraction. Morphologically this was associated with smaller Golgi stacks, and dilation of the endoplasmic reticulum. Therefore the role c-Src regulated Golgi function, ZG formation and microsomal zymogen transit in acinar cells needs to be explored in pancreatitis.

Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 2016; 310:G1015-27.

Abstract
In pancreatic acinar cells, the Src family of kinases (SFK) is involved in the activation of several signaling cascades that are implicated in mediating cellular processes (growth, cytoskeletal changes, apoptosis). However, the role of SFKs in various physiological responses such as enzyme secretion or in pathophysiological processes such as acute pancreatitis is either controversial, unknown, or incompletely understood. To address this, in this study, we investigated the role/mechanisms of SFKs in acute pancreatitis and enzyme release. Enzyme secretion was studied in rat dispersed pancreatic acini, in vitro acute-pancreatitis-like changes induced by supramaximal COOH-terminal octapeptide of cholecystokinin (CCK). SFK involvement assessed using the chemical SFK inhibitor (PP2) with its inactive control, 4-amino-7-phenylpyrazol[3,4-d]pyrimidine (PP3), under experimental conditions, markedly inhibiting SFK activation. In CCK-stimulated pancreatic acinar cells, activation occurred of trypsinogen, various MAP kinases (p42/44, JNK), transcription factors (signal transducer and activator of transcription-3, nuclear factor-κB, activator protein-1), caspases (3, 8, and 9) inducing apoptosis, LDH release reflective of necrosis, and various chemokines secreted (monocyte chemotactic protein-1, macrophage inflammatory protein-1α, regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed and secreted). All were inhibited by PP2, not by PP3, except caspase activation leading to apoptosis, which was increased, and trypsin activation, which was unaffected, as was CCK-induced amylase release. These results demonstrate SFK activation is playing a dual role in acute pancreatitis, inhibiting apoptosis and promoting necrosis as well as chemokine/cytokine release inducing inflammation, leading to more severe disease, as well as not affecting secretion. Thus, our studies indicate that SFK is a key mediator of inflammation and pancreatic acinar cell death in acute pancreatitis, suggesting it could be a potential therapeutic target in acute pancreatitis.

Abstract
When the microtubule (MT)-associated protein tau is not bound to axonal MTs, it becomes hyperphosphorylated and vulnerable to proteolytic cleavage and other changes typically seen in the hallmark tau deposits (neurofibrillary tangles) of tau-associated neurodegenerative diseases (tauopathies). Neurofibrillary tangle formation is preceded by tau oligomerization and accompanied by covalent crosslinking and cytotoxicity, making tangle cytopathogenesis a natural central focus of studies directed at understanding the role of tau in neurodegenerative disease. Recent studies suggest that the formation of tau oligomers may be more closely related to tau neurotoxicity than the presence of the tangles themselves. It has also become increasingly clear that tau pathobiology involves a wide variety of other cellular abnormalities including a disruption of autophagy, vesicle trafficking mechanisms, axoplasmic transport, neuronal polarity, and even the secretion of tau, which is normally a cytosolic protein, to the extracellular space. In this review, we discuss tau misprocessing, toxicity and secretion in the context of normal tau functions in developing and mature neurons. We also compare tau cytopathology to that of other aggregation-prone proteins involved in neurodegeneration (alpha synuclein, prion protein, and APP). Finally, we consider potential mechanisms of intra- and interneuronal tau lesion spreading, an area of particular recent interest.

The Src kinase Yes is activated in pancreatic acinar cells by gastrointestinal hormones/neurotransmitters, but not pancreatic growth factors, which stimulate its association with numerous other signaling molecules. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2012; 1823:1285-94.

Abstract
For growth factors, cytokines, G-protein-coupled receptors and numerous other stimuli, the Src Family of kinases (SFK) play a central signaling role. SFKs also play an important role in pancreatic acinar cell function including metabolism, secretion, endocytosis, growth and cytoskeletal integrity, although the specific SFKs involved are not fully known. In the present study we used specific antibodies for the SFK, Yes, to determine its presence, activation by pancreatic secretagogues or growth factors, and interaction with cellular signaling cascades mediated by CCK in which Yes participates in to cause acinar cell responses. Yes was identified in acini and secretagogues known to activate phospholipase C (PLC) [CCK, carbachol, bombesin] as well as post-receptor stimulants activating PKC [TPA] or mobilizing cellular calcium [thapsigargin/calcium ionophore (A23187)] each activated Yes. Secretin, which activates adenylate cyclase did not stimulate Yes, nor did pancreatic growth factors. CCK activation of Yes required both high- and low-affinity CCK(1)-receptor states. TPA-/CCK-stimulated Yes activation was completely inhibited by thapsigargin and the PKC inhibitor, GF109203X. CCK/TPA stimulated the association of Yes with focal adhesion kinases (Pyk2, FAK) and its autophosphorylated forms (pY397FAK, pY402Pyk2). Moreover, CCK/TPA stimulated Yes interacted with a number of other signaling proteins, including Shc, PKD, p130(Cas), PI3K and PTEN. This study demonstrates that in rat pancreatic acini, the SFK member Yes is expressed and activated by CCK and other gastrointestinal hormones/neurotransmitters. Because its activation results in the direct activation of many cellular signaling cascades that have been shown to mediate CCK's effect in acinar cell function our results suggest that it is one of the important pancreatic SFKs mediating these effects.

Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The endocytosis of cationized ferritin (CF) via a clathrin-mediated pathway is regulated by a signaling network. BACKGROUND Marginal cells showed the active endocytosis of CF via a clathrin-mediated pathway. The internalization of receptors through the clathrin-mediated pathway is an important regulatory event in signal transduction. Numerous kinases are involved in endocytosis, and each endocytic route is subjected to high-order regulation by cellular signaling mechanisms. METHODS CF was infused into the cochlear duct with phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate, okadaic acid, staurosporin, phenylarsine oxide, PD98059, SB20580 and wortmannin. Endocytic activity was measured at 30 minutes post-infusion by transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS The endocytosis of CF was stimulated by a protein kinase C activator (phorbol 12-myristate 13 acetate) and a protein kinase A activator (8-bromoadenosine-3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate). It was inhibited by protein phosphatase inhibitors (okadaic acid and phenylarsine oxide), mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-related kinase inhibitors (PD98059 and SB20580), and a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor (wortmannin). CONCLUSION Our previous study showed the endocytosis of microperoxidase to be strongly dependent on protein kinase C, protein phosphatase, extracellular signal-related kinase, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling networks but not on protein kinase A and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling networks. The present study indicated that the signaling cascade regulating CF's internalization differed from the cascade for microperoxidase's endocytosis.

Abstract
Akt is a central regulator of apoptosis, cell growth and survival. Growth factors and some G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) regulate Akt. Whereas growth-factor activation of Akt has been extensively studied, the regulation of Akt by GPCR's, especially gastrointestinal hormones/neurotransmitters, remains unclear. To address this area, in this study the effects of GI growth factors and hormones/neurotransmitters were investigated in rat pancreatic acinar cells which are high responsive to these agents. Pancreatic acini expressed Akt and 5 of 7 known pancreatic growth-factors stimulate Akt phosphorylation (T308, S473) and translocation. These effects are mediated by p85 phosphorylation and activation of PI3K. GI hormones increasing intracellular cAMP had similar effects. However, GI-hormones/neurotransmitters [CCK, bombesin, carbachol] activating phospholipase C (PLC) inhibited basal and growth-factor-stimulated Akt activation. Detailed studies with CCK, which has both physiological and pathophysiological effects on pancreatic acinar cells at different concentrations, demonstrated CCK has a biphasic effect: at low concentrations (pM) stimulating Akt by a Src-dependent mechanism and at higher concentrations (nM) inhibited basal and stimulated Akt translocation, phosphorylation and activation, by de-phosphorylating p85 resulting in decreasing PI3K activity. This effect required activation of both limbs of the PLC-pathway and a protein tyrosine phosphatase, but was not mediated by p44/42 MAPK, Src or activation of a serine phosphatase. Akt inhibition by CCK was also found in vivo and in Panc-1 cancer cells where it inhibited serum-mediated rescue from apoptosis. These results demonstrate that GI growth factors as well as gastrointestinal hormones/neurotransmitters with different cellular basis of action can all regulate Akt phosphorylation in pancreatic acinar cells. This regulation is complex with phospholipase C agents such as CCK, because both stimulatory and inhibitory effects can be seen, which are mediated by different mechanisms.

Abstract
Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a life-threatening autoimmune disease characterized by oral mucosal erosions and epidermal blistering. The autoantibodies generated target the desmosomal cadherin desmoglein-3 (Dsg3). Previous studies demonstrate that upon PV IgG binding, Dsg3 is internalized and enters an endo-lysosomal pathway where it is degraded. To define the endocytic machinery involved in PV IgG-induced Dsg3 internalization, human keratinocytes were incubated with PV IgG, and various tools were used to perturb distinct endocytic pathways. The PV IgG.Dsg3 complex failed to colocalize with clathrin, and inhibitors of clathrin- and dynamin-dependent pathways had little or no effect on Dsg3 internalization. In contrast, cholesterol binding agents such as filipin and nystatin and the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein dramatically inhibited Dsg3 internalization. Furthermore, the Dsg3 cytoplasmic tail specified sensitivity to these inhibitors. Moreover, inhibition of Dsg3 endocytosis with genistein prevented disruption of desmosomes and loss of adhesion in the presence of PV IgG. Altogether, these results suggest that PV IgG-induced Dsg3 internalization is mediated through a clathrin- and dynamin-independent pathway and that Dsg3 endocytosis is tightly coupled to the pathogenic activity of PV IgG.

Abstract
It remains unclear how different intracellular stores could interact and be recruited by Ca(2+)-releasing messengers to generate agonist-specific Ca(2+) signatures. In addition, refilling of acidic stores such as lysosomes and secretory granules occurs through endocytosis, but this has never been investigated with regard to specific Ca(2+) signatures. In pancreatic acinar cells, acetylcholine (ACh), cholecystokinin (CCK), and the messengers cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) evoke repetitive local Ca(2+) spikes in the apical pole. Our work reveals that local Ca(2+) spikes evoked by different agonists all require interaction of acid Ca(2+) stores and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but in different proportions. CCK and ACh recruit Ca(2+) from lysosomes and from zymogen granules through different mechanisms; CCK uses NAADP and cADPR, respectively, and ACh uses Ca(2+) and IP(3), respectively. Here, we provide pharmacological evidence demonstrating that endocytosis is crucial for the generation of repetitive local Ca(2+) spikes evoked by the agonists and by NAADP and IP(3). We find that cADPR-evoked repetitive local Ca(2+) spikes are particularly dependent on the ER. We propose that multiple Ca(2+)-releasing messengers determine specific agonist-elicited Ca(2+) signatures by controlling the balance among different acidic Ca(2+) stores, endocytosis, and the ER.

Abstract
Src family kinases (SFK) play a central signaling role for growth factors, cytokines, G-protein-coupled receptors and other stimuli. SFKs play important roles in pancreatic acinar cell secretion, endocytosis, growth, cytoskeletal integrity and apoptosis, although little is known of the specific SFKs involved. In this study we demonstrate the SFK, Lyn, is present in rat pancreatic acini and investigate its activation/signaling. Ca(2+)-mobilizing agents, cAMP-mobilizing agents and pancreatic growth factors activated Lyn. CCK, a physiological regulator of pancreatic function, rapidly activated Lyn. The specific SFK inhibitor, PP2, decreased Lyn activation; however, the inactive analogue, PP3, had no effect. Inhibition of CCK-stimulated changes in [Ca(2+)](i) decreased Lyn activation by 55%; GFX, a PKC inhibitor by 36%; and the combination by 95%. CCK activation of Lyn required stimulation of high and low affinity CCK(A) receptor states. CCK stimulated an association of Lyn with PKC-delta, Shc, p125(FAK) and PYK2 as well as with their autophosphorylated forms, but not with Cbl, p85, p130(CAS) or ERK 1/2. These results show Lyn is activated by diverse pancreatic stimulants. CCK's activation of Lyn is likely an important mediator of its ability to cause tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous important cellular mediators such as p125(FAK), PYK2, PKC-delta and Shc, which play central roles in CCK's effects on acinar cell function.

Abstract
Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) is well established as having non-cholinergic functions and is also expressed in breast tumours where its function(s) is not known. Recently, a candidate peptide sequence towards the C-terminal of the AChE molecule has been identified, as the salient site remote from normal catalysis in neurons, and possibly other cells. The main aim of this study was to explore the possibility that 'AChE-peptide' might also affect human breast cancer cells. Uptake of the non-cytotoxic tracer horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was used as an index of endocytosis, a key component of the metastatic cascade, representing exocytosis/secretory membrane activity and/or plasma membrane protein turnover. AChE-peptide had no affect on the weakly metastatic MCF-7 human breast cancer cell line. By contrast, application of AChE-peptide to the strongly metastatic MDA-MB-231 cells resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of HRP uptake; treatment with a scrambled variant of the peptide of comparable amino acid length was ineffective. The action of AChE-peptide was suppressed by lowering the extracellular Ca2+ concentration and co-applying a selective antagonist of alpha7, but not alpha4/beta2, nicotinic receptor. The results suggest that AChE-peptide has a novel, selective bioactivity on breast cancer cells and can potentiate metastatic cell behaviour.

Abstract
The possible functional role of voltage-gated Na(+) channel (VGSC) expression in controlling endocytic membrane activity in human small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) cell lines (H69, H209, H510) was studied using uptake of horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The normal human airway epithelial (16HBE14o) cell line was used in a comparative approach. Uptake of HRP was vesicular, strongly temperature-sensitive and suppressed by cytoskeletal poisons (cytochalasin D and colchicine), consistent with endocytosis. Compared with the normal cells, HRP uptake into SCLC cells was kinetically more efficient, resulting in more than four-fold higher uptake under optimized conditions. Importantly, HRP uptake into SCLC cells was inhibited significantly by the specific VGSC blocker tetrodotoxin, as well as lidocaine and phenytoin. These effects were dose-dependent. None of these drugs had any effect on the uptake into the 16HBE14o cells. Uptake of HRP into SCLC cells was reduced by approximately 66% in Na(+)-free medium and was partially ( approximately 30%) dependent on extracellular Ca(2+). The possibility that the endocytic activity in the H510 SCLC cells involved an endogenous cholinergic system was investigated by testing the effects of carbachol (a cholinergic receptor agonist) and eserine (an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase). Both drugs inhibited HRP uptake, thereby suggesting that basal cholinergic activity occurred. It is concluded that VGSC upregulation could enhance metastatic cell behavior in SCLC by enhancing endocytic membrane activity.

Abstract
Previous work has demonstrated that PLAP activity decreases in serum and placental villi from term chagasic and diabetic pregnant women. In vitro, T. cruzi induces changes in human syncytiotrophoblast's PLAP. Our aim was to determine if infection with T. cruzi induces changes in PLAP activity in diabetic and chagasic women's placenta, in order to elucidate if PLAP plays a role in the mechanisms of interaction between placenta and T. cruzi, and whether hyperglycemic conditions could worsen the placental infection. Using zymogrammes, Western blot, biochemical and immunohistological techniques, PLAP activity was determined in placental villi from diabetic and chagasic women, and in normal placentas cultured under hyperglycemic conditions with or without trypomastigotes. A significant reduction of PLAP expression was immunologically detected in infected diabetic and normal placental villi cultured under hyperglycemic conditions of 71 and 81%, respectively, compared with controls. A significant decrease of PLAP specific activity was registered in homogenates and in the culture media from both infected diabetic and normal placentas under hyperglycemic conditions (of about 50-70%), and in chagasic ones (of about 87%), when compared with controls. Thus, PLAP might be involved in parasite invasion and diabetic and hyperglycemic placentas could be more susceptible to T. cruzi infection.

Abstract
Regulated secretion and exocytosis require the selective packaging of regulated secretory proteins in secretory storage organelles and the controlled docking and fusion of these organelles with the plasma membrane. Secretory granule biogenesis involves sorting of secretory proteins and membrane components both at the level of the trans-Golgi network and the immature secretory granule. Sorting is thought to be mediated by selective protein aggregation and the interaction of these proteins with specific membrane domains. There is now considerable interest in the understanding of the complex lipid-protein and protein-protein interactions at the trans-Golgi network and the granule membrane. A role for lipid microdomains and associated sorting receptors in membrane targeting and granule formation is vividly discussed for (neuro)endocrine cells. In exocrine cells, however, little has been known of granule membrane composition and membrane protein function. With the cloning and characterization of granule membrane proteins and their interactions at the inner leaflet of zymogen granules of pancreatic acinar cells, it is now possible to elucidate their function in membrane targeting and sorting of zymogens at the molecular level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In vitro, Trypanosoma cruzi invades a wide variety of mammalian cells by an unique process that is still poorly understood. Trypomastigotes adhere to specific receptors on the outer membrane of host cells before intracellular invasion, causing calcium ion mobilization and rearrangement of host cell microfilaments. OBJECTIVE To test if placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP), a trophoblast plasma membrane protein anchored by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol molecule, is involved in the transplacental transmission of this parasite. METHOD We cultured HEp2 cells with the parasite and studied PLAP and actin microfilaments. The results were correlated with invasion rate. RESULTS Human HEp2 tumour cells express PLAP. HEp2 cells infected with trypomastigotes showed alteration in their alkaline phosphatase activity and a different pattern of actin organization, compared to control cells. Perturbation of PLAP from HEp2 cells before infection with T. cruzi trypomastigotes decreased the invasion rate. CONCLUSION Placental alkaline phosphatase could be involved in the internalization of T. cruzi into HEp2 cells, via activation of tyrosine kinase and rearrangement of actin microfilaments.

Abstract
Acid secretion by the gastric parietal cell is regulated by paracrine, endocrine, and neural pathways. The physiological stimuli include histamine, acetylcholine, and gastrin via their receptors located on the basolateral plasma membranes. Stimulation of acid secretion typically involves an initial elevation of intracellular calcium and/or cAMP followed by activation of a cAMP-dependent protein kinase cascade that triggers the translocation and insertion of the proton pump enzyme, H,K-ATPase, into the apical plasma membrane of parietal cells. Whereas the H,K-ATPase contains a plasma membrane targeting motif, the stimulation-mediated relocation of the H,K-ATPase from the cytoplasmic membrane compartment to the apical plasma membrane is mediated by a SNARE protein complex and its regulatory proteins. This review summarizes the progress made toward an understanding of the cell biology of gastric acid secretion. In particular we have reviewed the early signaling events following histaminergic and cholinergic activation, the identification of multiple factors participating in the trafficking and recycling of the proton pump, and the role of the cytoskeleton in supporting the apical pole remodeling, which appears to be necessary for active acid secretion by the parietal cell. Emphasis is placed on identifying protein factors that serve as effectors for the mechanistic changes associated with cellular activation and the secretory response.

Abstract
The secretory membrane activities of two rat prostate cancer cell lines of markedly different metastatic potential, and corresponding electrophysiological characteristics, were studied in a comparative approach. In particular, voltage-gated Na(+) channels (VGSCs) were expressed in the strongly metastatic MAT-LyLu but not in the closely related, but weakly metastatic, AT-2 cells. Uptake and release of the non-cytotoxic marker horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were used as indices of general endocytotic and exocytotic membrane activity, respectively. The amount of tracer present in a given experimental condition was quantified by light microscopic digital imaging. The uptake of HRP was an active process, abolished completely by incubating the cells at low temperature (5 degrees C) and suppressed by disrupting the cytoskeleton. Interestingly, the extent of HRP uptake into the strongly metastatic MAT-LyLu cells was almost twice that into the weakly metastatic AT-2 cells. Vesicular uptake of HRP occurred in a fast followed by a slow phase; these appeared to correspond to cytoplasmic and perinuclear pools, respectively. Importantly, the overall quantitative difference in the uptake disappeared in the presence of 1 microM tetrodotoxin which significantly reduced the uptake of HRP into the MAT-LyLu cells. There was no effect on the AT-2 cells, consistent with functional VGSC expression occurring selectively in the former. A similar effect was observed in Na(+)-free medium. The uptake was partially dependent upon extracellular Ca(2+) but was not affected by raising the extracellular K(+) concentration. We suggest that functional VGSC expression could potentiate prostate cancer cells' metastatic ability by enhancing their secretory membrane activity.

Abstract
The mouse gene Ptprr encodes the neuronal protein tyrosine phosphatases PTP-SL and PTPBR7. These proteins differ in their N-terminal domains, with PTP-SL being a cytosolic, membrane-associated phosphatase and PTPBR7 a type I transmembrane protein. In this study, we further explored the nature of the PTP-SL-associated vesicles in neuronal cells using a panel of organelle markers and noted a comparable subcellular distribution for PTP-SL and the beta4-adaptin subunit of the AP4 complex. PTP-SL, PTPBR7 and beta4-adaptin are localised at the Golgi apparatus and at vesicles throughout the cytoplasm. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that PTP-SL, PTPBR7 and beta4-adaptin are all endogenously expressed in brain. Interestingly, coexpression of PTP-SL and beta4-adaptin leads to an altered subcellular localisation for PTP-SL. Instead of the Golgi and vesicle-type staining pattern, still observable for beta4-adaptin, PTP-SL is now distributed throughout the cytoplasm. Although beta4-adaptin was found to interact with the phosphatase domain of PTP-SL and PTPBR7 in the yeast two-hybrid system, it failed to do so in transfected neuronal cells. Our data suggest that the tyrosine phosphatases PTP-SL and PTPBR7 may be involved in the formation and transport of AP4-coated vesicles or in the dephosphorylation of their transmembrane cargo molecules at or near the Golgi apparatus.

Abstract
Syncollin, a novel pancreatic zymogen granule protein, is present on the luminal side of the granule membrane. To address the function of syncollin, we searched for putative binding partners. Cross-linking experiments with purified syncollin, and granule content and membrane proteins revealed a direct interaction between syncollin and GP-2, a major glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored membrane glycoprotein. An interaction was also observed when cross-linking was performed with recombinant GP-2. In addition, syncollin could be cross-linked to itself, supporting the suggestion that it exists as a homo-oligomer. Cleavage of the GPI anchor of GP-2 by treatment of granule membranes with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C had no effect on the membrane attachment of syncollin, indicating that it is not mediated exclusively via an interaction with GP-2. Syncollin was found to be associated with detergent-insoluble cholesterol/glycolipid-enriched complexes. These complexes floated to the lighter fractions of sucrose-density gradients and also contained GP-2, the lectin ZG16p, sulphated matrix proteoglycans and the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) syntaxin 3 and synaptobrevin 2. Our results indicate that membrane-associated syncollin is a component of lipid rafts, where it interacts both with GP-2 and membrane lipids. We suggest that the syncollin-GP-2 complex might play a role in signal transduction across the granule membrane.

Abstract
The characterization of endocytotic and post-endocytotic trafficking pathways at the apical membrane of epithelial cells presents a potential avenue for the identification of targets to modulate the initial stages of absorption and transepithelial transport of macromolecules. In addition, it is becoming increasingly clear that the activity of a number of apical membrane transporters is acutely regulated by vesicular trafficking. The gastric HCl-secreting parietal (oxyntic) cell is a model system to characterize an apical membrane vesicular trafficking pathway and its relationship to the regulation of the function of the gastric proton pump. The subapical tubulovesicular compartment of the parietal cell is highly enriched in the H,K-ATPase and is a key endosomal-like system in the apical membrane recycling pathway. In the process of cataloging the proteins that interact with the H,K-ATPase and tubulovesicles, we have identified novel components that may regulate protein sorting through this compartment and candidate linker proteins between the vesicular trafficking machinery and the cytoskeleton. One protein associated with H,K-ATPase-rich tubulovesicles is the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase c-src, identified by a screen for dynamin-binding proteins. The tyrosine kinase is active, as it can tyrosine-phosphorylate tubulovesicular proteins in vitro. One of the tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins of M(r) 100 kDa may be the H,K-ATPase itself, or a protein in a complex with the H,K-ATPase that is stable to dissociation by nonionic detergents. By virtue of its association with tubulovesicular membranes, c-src may regulate the trafficking and/or activity of the H,K-ATPase. A second protein identified by a screen for dynamin-binding proteins is the protein lasp-1. Lasp-1, through its modular protein structure, may bind to dynamin and to the actin cytoskeleton, thus linking the vesicular trafficking machinery with the cytoskeleton. These two examples illustrate the utility of the parietal cell in the biochemical characterization of components potentially involved in the regulation of apical membrane trafficking pathways.

Abstract
We previously showed that endocytosis at the apical plasma membrane (APM) of the pancreatic acinar cell is activated by the cleavage of GP2, a GPI-linked protein, from the apical cell surface. This endocytic process, as measured by horseradish peroxidase uptake into pancreatic acinar cells, is blocked by the tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein and tyrphostin B42 as well as by disruption of actin filaments with cytochalasin. This suggests that the cleavage of GP2 from the cell membrane may activate endocytosis through a tyrosine kinase-regulated pathway. However, the mechanism by which GP2 and tyrosine kinases act together to activate endocytosis at the APM remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrate that pp60, p62yes, caveolin, and annexin, which have previously been implicated in endocytosis in other cell lines, were present in high abundance in GPI-enriched membranes by Western blot analysis. pp60, p62yes, and caveolin all co-immunoprecipitated with GP2 except annexin. An 85-kDa protein whose tyrosine-dependent phosphorylation is correlated with the activation of endocytosis in intact acinar cells also was present in these immunoprecipitates. This suggests that in pancreatic acini, GP2 may exist in a complex with src kinases, caveolin, and an 85-kDa phosphorylated substrate to regulate endocytosis at the APM.

Abstract
This article focuses on three potential mechanisms by which pancreatic dysfunction occurs in cystic fibrosis. These include (1) obstruction of pancreatic ducts by inspissated plugs, (2) inhibition of endocytosis in acinar cells, and (3) imbalance in membrane lipids in cystic fibrosis regulated cells. Any of these abnormalities alone or in combination may explain the development of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency.

Abstract
The end9-1 (arc35-1) mutant was identified as an endocytosis mutant and is a mutant allele of ARC35 that encodes a subunit of the Arp2/3 complex. As for other mutants in the Arp2/3 complex, arc35-1 is defective for endocytosis and organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Both defects can be suppressed by overexpression of calmodulin. Analysis of a collection of temperature-sensitive cmd1 mutants for their ability to suppress either the endocytic defect and/or the actin defect indicates that the two defects are tightly coupled. We demonstrate that Arc35p and Cmd1p interact and that Arc35p is required for cortical localization of calmodulin. This is the first report linking Arp2/3 complex function with calmodulin through which it exercises at least one of its endocytic functions.

Abstract
Growth factor receptors activate tyrosine kinases and undergo endocytosis. Recent data suggest that tyrosine kinase inhibition can affect growth factor receptor internalization. The type 1 angiotensin II receptor (AT1R) which is a G-protein-coupled receptor, also activates tyrosine kinases and undergoes endocytosis. Thus, we examined whether tyrosine kinase inhibition affected AT1R internalization. To verify protein tyrosine phosphorylation, both LLCPKCl4 cells expressing rabbit AT1R (LLCPKAT1R) and cultured rat mesangial cells (MSC) were treated with angiotensin II (Ang II) [1-100 nM] then solubilized and immunoprecipitated with antiphosphotyrosine antisera. Immunoblots of these samples demonstrated that Ang II stimulated protein tyrosine phosphorylation in both cell types. Losartan [1 microM], an AT1R antagonist, inhibited Ang II-stimulated protein tyrosine phosphorylation. LLCPKAT1R cells displayed specific 125I-Ang II binding at apical (AP) and basolateral (BL) membranes, and both AP and BL AT1R activated tyrosine phosphorylation. LLCPKAT1R cells, incubated with genistein (Gen) [200 microM] or tyrphostin B-48 (TB-48) [50 microM], were assayed for acid-resistant specific 125I-Ang II binding, a measure of Ang II internalization. Both Gen (n = 7) and TB-48 (n = 3) inhibited AP 125I-Ang II internalization (80+/-7% inhibition; p<0.025 vs. control). Neither compound affected BL internalization. TB-1, a non-tyrosine kinase-inhibiting tyrphostin, did not affect AP 125I-Ang II endocytosis (n = 3), suggesting that the TB-48 effect was specific for tyrosine kinase inhibition. Incubating MSC with Gen (n = 5) or herbimycin A [150 ng/ml] (n = 4) also inhibited MSC 125I-Ang II internalization (82+/-11% inhibition; p<0.005 vs. control). Thus, tyrosine kinase inhibition prevented Ang II internalization in MSC and selectively decreased AP Ang II internalization in LLCPKAT1R cells suggesting that AP AT1R in LLCPKAT1R cells and MSC AT1R have similar endocytic phenotypes, and tyrosine kinase activity may play a role in AT1R internalization.
