ホスホイノシトール3-キナーゼ(PI3K)は、細胞の遊走、増殖、分化などに関わる重要な脂質代謝酵素である。本研究は、クラスIA PI3K の制御サブユニットであるp85に、従来知られていなかったAP-2結合モチーフが存在し、このモチーフがPI3Kの触媒活性非依存的にクラスリンとダイナミンによるエンドサイトーシスを誘発することを明らかにした。AP-2結合モチーフに変異を持つp85は、接着斑への異常な蓄積を示し、線維芽細胞の細胞遊走速度を上昇させることから、p85のAP-2結合モチーフによるエンドサイトーシスは、PI3Kを接着斑から解離させ、細胞遊走を抑制する働きがあることが示唆された。従来、p85は、PI3K の触媒サブユニットであるp110と結合し、細胞遊走を正に制御する因子であると考えられてきたが、本研究によって、p85には正負2つの面があることが明らかになった。PI3Kが関わるガンや免疫疾患の機序を解明する一助になるものと期待される。 参考文献 [1] Hideaki T.

Such a delicate, flexible, and spontaneous process could be governed by intrinsic brain rhythms and the harmonic communication between several brainwave frequencies, as suggested by our previous studies (Sun et al., 2019-2022). Moreover, aberrant neural oscillations and coordination may give rise to disorders in motor tempo control (i.e., tremor, slowness, rigidity, imbalance), as widely shown in Parkinson’s disease. Based on our neurophysiological findings and their prognostic value, in which we have established a crucial role of intrinsic personal alpha (8-12Hz) and alpha-dependent oscillatory synchrony in representing spontaneous motor tempo and contexts-dependent motor tempo variations [1], we further propose to examine the effects of individual alpha peak frequency (IAF)-selective neuromodulation over the frontal-striatal circuit on maintaining and improving spontaneous motor performance (i.e., motor speed, stability, and flexibility) among normal aging people using non-invasive brain stimulation [2] and multisensory (visual, auditory, and tactile) frequency-tagging techniques. Our study may lead to novel neurofeedback technology development to help people maintain a naturally motivated state and slow down the motor and cognitive aging processes [3-4].
