| abstractText | We addressed the role of class 1B phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) isoform PI3Kgamma in mediating NADPH oxidase activation and reactive oxidant species (ROS) generation in endothelial cells (ECs) and of PI3Kgamma-mediated oxidant signaling in the mechanism of NF-kappaB activation and intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 expression. We used lung microvascular ECs isolated from mice with targeted deletion of the p110gamma catalytic subunit of PI3Kgamma. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha challenge of wild type ECs caused p110gamma translocation to the plasma membrane and phosphatidylinositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production coupled to ROS production; however, this response was blocked in p110gamma-/- ECs. ROS production was the result of TNFalpha activation of Ser phosphorylation of NADPH oxidase subunit p47(phox) and its translocation to EC membranes. NADPH oxidase activation failed to occur in p110gamma-/- ECs. Additionally, the TNFalpha-activated NF-kappaB binding to the ICAM-1 promoter, ICAM-1 protein expression, and PMN adhesion to ECs required functional PI3Kgamma. TNFalpha challenge of p110gamma-/- ECs failed to induce phosphorylation of PDK1 and activation of the atypical PKC isoform, PKCzeta. Thus, PI3Kgamma lies upstream of PKCzeta in the endothelium, and its activation is crucial in signaling NADPH oxidase-dependent oxidant production and subsequent NF-kappaB activation and ICAM-1 expression. |
