Regulation and cellular functions of class II phosphoinositide 3-kinases

Abstract: Class II isoforms of PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) are still the least investigated and characterized of all PI3Ks. In the last few years, an increased interest in these enzymes has improved our understanding of their cellular functions. However, several questions still remain unanswered on their mechanisms of activation, their specific downstream effectors and their contribution to physiological processes and pathological conditions. Emerging evidence suggests that distinct PI3Ks activate different signall… Show more

“…This is in accordance with previous fi ndings of intact insulin-stimulated PI3k activity in human skeletal muscle ( 12 ). Only a little is known about the function of class II PI3k, although it has been shown that the C2 ␤ subunit, which is encoded by the PIK3C2B gene, is directly activated by growth factors in vitro ( 45 ). It is therefore possible that the confi rmed by incubation of C2C12 cells in this study (32)(33)(34).…”

“…These findings suggest two possible scenarios: (1) that PI(3)P is produced by alternative sources such as the class II PI3Ks (Devereaux et al, 2013;Falasca and Maffucci, 2012;Posor et al, 2013); and/or (2) that a compensatory mechanism independent of PI(3)P is triggered to cope with the loss of Vps34. Previous reports indicate that expression of the constitutively active mutant of Rab5 can bypass the loss of EEA1 membrane localization upon wortmannin treatment Simonsen et al, 1998), and that wortmannin activates Rab5 (Chen and Wang, 2001).…”

“…PI(3)P is also known to be generated in the PM. In adipocytes, PI(3)P is generated in the PM upon insulin stimulation and facilitates the translocation of the glucose transporter GLUT4 to the PM (60,61). In HeLa cells, PI(3)P is generated in the PM in response to lysophosphatidic acid and stimulates cell migration (62).…”
