Phosphoinositides are important signaling molecules that govern a large number of cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, membrane remodeling, and survival. Here we introduce a fully synthetic membrane-permeant derivative of a novel, easily accessible, and very potent phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)] mimic: phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5,6)P(4)]. The membrane-permeant PtdIns(3,4,5,6)P(4) derivative activated pathways downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), including protein kinase B, p70S6K, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and protein kinase C, more potently than similar membrane-permeant PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) and PtdIns(3,4)P(2) derivatives in the absence of receptor stimulation. In addition, we demonstrate that treatment of PC12 cells with the membrane-permeant PtdIns(3,4)P(2), PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3), and PtdIns(3,4,5,6)P(4) derivatives increases the number of neurites per cell in the presence of NGF. This work establishes membrane-permeant phosphoinositides as powerful tools to study PI3K signaling and directly demonstrates that 3-phosphorylated phosphoinositides are instrumental for neurite initiation.
磷酸肌醇是重要的信号分子,调控着大量细胞过程,如增殖、分化、膜重塑和存活。在此,我们介绍一种新型、易于获取且强效的磷脂酰肌醇3,4,5-三磷酸[PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)]模拟物的全合成膜渗透性衍生物:磷脂酰肌醇3,4,5,6-四磷酸[PtdIns(3,4,5,6)P(4)]。在无受体刺激的情况下,这种膜渗透性PtdIns(3,4,5,6)P(4)衍生物比类似的膜渗透性PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)和PtdIns(3,4)P(2)衍生物更有效地激活磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶(PI3K)下游的信号通路,包括蛋白激酶B、p70S6K、丝裂原活化蛋白激酶和蛋白激酶C。此外,我们证明,在存在神经生长因子(NGF)的情况下,用膜渗透性PtdIns(3,4)P(2)、PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)和PtdIns(3,4,5,
