Abstract
Activating and inactivating mutations of SHP-2 are responsible, respectively, for the Noonan (NS) and the LEOPARD (LS) syndromes. Clinically, these developmental disorders overlap greatly, resulting in the apparent paradox of similar diseases caused by mutations that oppositely influence SHP-2 phosphatase activity. While the mechanisms remain unclear, recent functional analysis of SHP-2, along with the identification of other genes involved in NS and in other related syndromes (neurofibromatosis-1, Costello and cardio-facio-cutaneous syndromes), strongly suggest that Ras/MAPK represents the major signaling pathway deregulated by SHP-2 mutants. We discuss the idea that, with the exception of LS mutations that have been shown to exert a dominant negative effect, all disease-causing mutations involved in Ras/MAPK-mediated signaling, including SHP-2, might lead to enhanced MAPK activation. This suggests that a narrow range of MAPK signaling is required for appropriate development. We also discuss the possibility that LS mutations may not simply exhibit dominant negative activity.

Abstract
Inactivation of the HRPT2 gene encoding parafibromin was recently linked to the familial hyperparathyroidism-jaw tumor syndrome. Patients with this syndrome carry an increased risk of parathyroid and renal tumors. To determine the relevance of HRPT2 for sporadic renal tumors, clear cell, papillary and chromophobe renal cell carcinomas as well as oncocytomas and Wilms tumors were analysed for HRPT2 gene alterations. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of HRPT2 was found in seven of 56 (12.5%) clear cell, three of 14 (21%) papillary, six of 10 (60%) chromophobe renal cell carcinomas, three of eight (38%) oncocytomas and four of 10 (40%) Wilms tumors. In addition, two novel HRPT2 point mutations, causing K34Q and R292K changes in parafibromin, were detected in one clear cell carcinoma and one Wilms tumor, respectively. These tumors displayed LOH of the remaining wild-type allele, but interestingly no von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) mutation. Functional analysis revealed that the K34Q mutant species of parafibromin is, unlike wild-type protein, defective in suppressing cyclin D1 expression in vivo. Taken together, these results suggest that renal cancer-associated mutations in parafibromin occur in the absence of VHL mutation, which in turn may contribute to constitutively elevated cyclin D1 expression and abnormal cell proliferation.

Abstract
Circulating phospholipids carrying a single esterified fatty acid, the so-called lysophospholipids, are now considered as mediators of the intercellular communication. Their major members are the lysophosphatidic acid and the sphingosine 1-phosphate, two molecules displaying biological activities similar to those of growth factors or cytokines, through a recently identified subfamily of G protein-coupled receptors. They are involved in various biological processes, e.g., brain development and angiogenesis, but the following evidences suggest that these lipids are also significant actors of tumour development: (i) they stimulate the growth, survival and migration of tumour cells from various origins (ovary, prostate, glioblastoma...); (ii) they are abundant in malignant effusions; (iii) the lysophospholipid-producing enzymes are tumourigenic. Even if it remains necessary to define the role of these "oncolipids" in relationship with oncogenes and tumor suppressors, they may well be the mediators of an efficient autostimulatory system of the proliferating and migratory capacities of cancer cells, suggesting that lysophospholipids could represent novel valuable targets for anticancer pharmacology.

Abstract
Although the mechanisms involved in the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) by receptor tyrosine kinases do not display an obvious role for phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks), we have observed in the nontransformed cell line Vero stimulated with epidermal growth factor (EGF) that wortmannin and LY294002 nearly abolished MAPK activation. The effect was observed under strong stimulation and was independent of EGF concentration. In addition, three mutants of class Ia PI3Ks were found to inhibit MAPK activation to an extent similar to their effect on Akt/protein kinase B activation. To determine the importance of PI3K lipid kinase activity in MAPK activation, we have used the phosphatase PTEN and the pleckstrin homology domain of Tec kinase. Overexpression of these proteins, but not control mutants, was found to inhibit MAPK activation, suggesting that the lipid products of class Ia PI3K are necessary for MAPK signaling. We next investigated the location of PI3K in the MAPK cascade. Pharmacological inhibitors and dominant negative forms of PI3K were found to block the activation of Ras induced by EGF. Upstream from Ras, although association of Grb2 with its conventional effectors was independent of PI3K, we have observed that the recruitment of the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 required PI3K. Because SHP2 was also essential for Ras activation, this suggested the existence of a PI3K/SHP2 pathway leading to the activation of Ras. In addition, we have observed that the docking protein Gab1, which is involved in PI3K activation during EGF stimulation, is also implicated in this pathway downstream of PI3K. Indeed, the association of Gab1 with SHP2 was blocked by PI3K inhibitors, and expression of Gab1 mutant deficient for binding to SHP2 was found to inhibit Ras stimulation without interfering with PI3K activation. These results show that, in addition to Shc and Grb2, a PI3K-dependent pathway involving Gab1 and SHP2 is essential for Ras activation under EGF stimulation.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) has been shown to play an essential role in G protein-induced signaling even in non-myeloid cells where few agonists of G protein-coupled receptors are known to activate PI3K. We have identified adherent cell lines where lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) strongly and rapidly activates the accumulation of PI3K lipid products. The process is not modified by expression of a kinase-dead mutant of the Gbetagamma-responsive PI3K p110gamma. In contrast, it is inhibited by genistein or expression of a dominant negative mutant of p85 and potentiated by overexpressing wild-type p110alpha or -beta but not -gamma. By using a specific chemical inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and expression of a dominant negative mutant, we have observed that recruitment of p85/p110 PI3Ks occurs through transactivation of the EGFR by LPA and downstream mobilization of the docking protein Gab1 that associates with p85 upon LPA stimulation. Finally, we show that LPA cannot activate PI3K in cell lines lacking the EGFR/Gab1 pathway, including cells that transactivate the PDGF receptor. Altogether, these results demonstrate that activation of PI3K by LPA is conditioned by the ability of LPA to transactivate an EGFR/Gab1 signaling pathway.

Abstract
Two Norway spruce (Picea abies Karst.) clones, one resistant and the other susceptible to mass inoculation with Ophiostoma polonicum Siem., were compared with regard to their phenolic compositions and chalcone synthase (CHS) and stilbene synthase activities of their phloem before and at 6 and 12 d after artificial inoculation with sterile malt agar or O. polonicum. In unwounded phloem, the resistant clone differed from the susceptible clone by the presence of taxifolin glycoside, lower concentrations of stilbene glycosides, and higher CHS activity. After inoculation, (+)-catechin concentration and CHS activity dramatically increased around the wound, particularly in the resistant clone. Stilbene synthase activity also increased, but more slowly and to a lower level, whereas the concentrations of stilbenes remained stable. Tanning ability decreased in the susceptible clone, whereas it remained stable in the resistant one. It is proposed that the induced phenolic response of Norway spruce phloem consists of an activation of the phenolic pathway, finally leading to tannins and insoluble polymers. It is suggested that resistance to O. polonicum depends on the ability of the tree to easily activate the flavonoid pathway.
