Location impinges on function of some of the main players of nuclear inositol lipid cycle. Here we have discussed the behavior of PI-PLCβ1 in myelodysplastic and cultured leukemia cells. The presence of a cryptic deletion of PI-PLCβ1 gene in high-risk MDS patients is accompanied by altered expression of its mRNA in that the overall decrease of mRNA is characterized by a dramatic decrease of the splicing variant 1a, which is cytosolic and partially nuclear, whilst the splicing variant 1b is still highly represented. This suggests that altered expression of nuclear PI-PLCβ1 could be involved in a disregulation of the cell cycle and have also important effects on cell apoptotic pathways. Moreover, in cultured leukemia cells (Felc) it has been reported by means of a proteomic approach that the splicing factor SRp20 interacts with nuclear PI-PLCβ1 and its expression is modulated by this signaling molecule. All in all, it appears more and more evident that nuclear signaling elicited by PI-PLCβ1 is a key event in the control of cell cycle progression.

Abstract
Location impinges on function of some of the main players of nuclear inositol lipid cycle. Here we have discussed the behavior of PI-PLCβ1 in myelodysplastic and cultured leukemia cells. The presence of a cryptic deletion of PI-PLCβ1 gene in high-risk MDS patients is accompanied by altered expression of its mRNA in that the overall decrease of mRNA is characterized by a dramatic decrease of the splicing variant 1a, which is cytosolic and partially nuclear, whilst the splicing variant 1b is still highly represented. This suggests that altered expression of nuclear PI-PLCβ1 could be involved in a disregulation of the cell cycle and have also important effects on cell apoptotic pathways. Moreover, in cultured leukemia cells (Felc) it has been reported by means of a proteomic approach that the splicing factor SRp20 interacts with nuclear PI-PLCβ1 and its expression is modulated by this signaling molecule. All in all, it appears more and more evident that nuclear signaling elicited by PI-PLCβ1 is a key event in the control of cell cycle progression.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
