Abstract
Most fast synaptic inhibitions in the mammalian brain are mediated by GABAA receptors (GABAARs). An appropriate level of GABAAR expression at the cell surface is essential for neurodevelopment and the efficacy of GABAergic synaptic transmission. We previously reported that brefeldin A-inhibited GDP/GTP exchange factor 1 (BIG1), a binding partner of GABAARs, plays an important role in trafficking GABAARs to the cell surface. However, its regulatory mechanisms remain unknown. In the present study, we identified a new cellular protein, 14-3-3ζ, which can interact with the β subunit of GABAARs and BIG1 both in vitro and in vivo and colocalizes in the soma, dendrites, and axons of hippocampal neurons. Overexpression of 14-3-3ζ-WT increased the surface expression of BIG1 in dendrites and axons, as well as the binding of BIG1 with GABAAR. Depleted 14-3-3ζ with efficacious siRNA attenuated the interaction between BIG1 and GABAARs and resulted in significant decreases in the surface expression levels of BIG1 and GABAAR. GABAAR agonist treatment increased the expression levels of BIG1 and 14-3-3ζ on the surface, indicating that 14-3-3ζ is involved in regulating BIG1-mediated GABAAR surface expression. Depletion of BIG1 or 14-3-3ζ significantly decreased GABAAR expression at the cell surface and suppressed the GABA-gated influx of chloride ions. These data indicate that the combination of 14-3-3ζ and BIG1 is required for GABAAR membrane expression. Our results provide a potential promising therapeutic target for neurological disorders involving GABAergic synaptic transmission.

Abstract
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response syndrome with high mortality. It has been reported that brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange factor 1 (BIG1) is involved in the pathogenesis of sepsis. However, the mechanism is not fully elucidated. In the present study, we explored the role of BIG1 in mediating lipid raft-dependent macrophage inflammatory response and its impact on lung injury in murine sepsis. In vitro studies revealed that BIG1 deficiency reduces the upregulation and secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and IL-1β and inhibits the activation of the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/myeloid differentiation primary response 88-dependent nuclear factor kappa-B signaling pathway induced by the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment. Further experiments revealed that the inhibitory effects of BIG1 deficiency on LPS-induced inflammation are due to the upregulation of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter A1. This promotes the free-cholesterol efflux from lipid rafts and results in the reduction of lipid raft TLR4 content. The decrease in TLR4 content in lipid raft thereby inhibits the LPS-induced inflammatory response. Furthermore, using the cecal ligation and puncture-induced polymicrobial sepsis mouse model, we found that conditional knockout (cKO) of the myeloid cell BIG1 significantly reduced the serum concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β, and downregulated their mRNA expressions in the lungs. Pathological analysis confirmed that the BIG1 cKO alleviated the sepsis-induced lung injury. These results revealed the crucial new role of BIG1 in mediating lipid raft-dependent macrophage inflammatory response. Hence, BIG1 may be a potential promising therapeutic target for the treatment of septic lung injury.

Abstract
Membrane traffic between secretory and endosomal compartments is vesicle-mediated and must be tightly balanced to maintain a physiological compartment size. Vesicle formation is initiated by guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) that activate the ARF family of small GTPases. Regulatory mechanisms, including reversible phosphorylation, allow ARF-GEFs to support vesicle formation only at the right time and place in response to cellular needs. Here, we review current knowledge of how the Golgi-specific brefeldin A-resistance factor 1 (GBF1)/brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide exchange protein (BIG) family of ARF-GEFs is influenced by phosphorylation and use predictive paradigms to propose new regulatory paradigms. We describe a conserved cluster of phosphorylation sites within the N-terminal domains of the GBF1/BIG ARF-GEFs and suggest that these sites may respond to homeostatic signals related to cell growth and division. In the C-terminal region, GBF1 shows phosphorylation sites clustered differently as compared with the similar configuration found in both BIG1 and BIG2. Despite this similarity, BIG1 and BIG2 phosphorylation patterns are divergent in other domains. The different clustering of phosphorylation sites suggests that the nonconserved sites may represent distinct regulatory nodes and specify the function of GBF1, BIG1, and BIG2.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi vesicle trafficking plays a pivotal role in the conventional secretory pathway of many cytokines; however, the precise release mechanism of a major inflammasome mediator, IL-1β, is not thought to follow the conventional ER-Golgi route and remains elusive. Here, we found that perturbation of ER-Golgi trafficking by brefeldin A (BFA) treatment attenuated nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor family, pyrin-domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). BFA treatment inhibited NLRP3-mediated inflammasome assembly and caspase-1 activation but did not block IL-1β secretion from BMDMs following BFA administration after NLRP3 inflammasome activation. Consistently, short-hairpin RNA-dependent knockdown of BFA-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange protein 1 (BIG1), a molecular target of BFA and an initiator of Golgi-specific vesicle trafficking, abolished NLRP3-dependent apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase-recruitment domain oligomerization and caspase-1 activation in BMDMs. Similarly, knockdown of Golgi-specific BFA-resistance guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1, another target of BFA, clearly attenuated NLRP3-mediated caspase-1 activation in BMDMs. Mechanistically, inhibition of BIG1-mediated vesicle trafficking did not impair NLRP3-activating signal 2-promoted events, such as potassium efflux and mitochondrial rearrangement, but caused significant impairment of signal 1-triggered priming steps, including NF-κB-mediated pathways. These data suggest that BFA-targeted vesicle trafficking at the Golgi contributes to activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome signaling.-Hong, S., Hwang, I., Gim, E., Yang, J., Park, S., Yoon, S.-H., Lee, W.-W., Yu, J.-W. Brefeldin A-sensitive ER-Golgi vesicle trafficking contributes to NLRP3-dependent caspase-1 activation.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) is a critical mediator of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) signaling. However, the regulatory mechanisms of TRAF2 are not fully understood. Here we show evidence that TRAF2 requires brefeldin A-inhibited guanine nucleotide-exchange factor 1 (BIG1) to be recruited into TNF receptor 1 (TNFR1) signaling complexes. In BIG1 knockdown cells, TNF-α-induced c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation was attenuated and the sensitivity to TNF-α-induced apoptosis was increased. Since these trends correlated well with those of TRAF2 deficient cells as previously demonstrated, we tested whether BIG1 functions as an upstream regulator of TRAF2 in TNFR1 signaling. As expected, we found that knockdown of BIG1 suppressed TNF-α-dependent ubiquitination of TRAF2 that is required for JNK activation, and impaired the recruitment of TRAF2 to the TNFR1 signaling complex (complex I). Moreover, we found that the recruitment of TRAF2 to the death-inducing signaling complex termed complex II was also impaired in BIG1 knockdown cells. These results suggest that BIG1 is a key component of the machinery that drives TRAF2 to the signaling complexes formed after TNFR1 activation. Thus, our data demonstrate a novel and unexpected function of BIG1 that regulates TNFR1 signaling by targeting TRAF2.
