Phagocytosis of bone marrow derived macrophages is controlled by Phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ

Highlights • Phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) expression is induced to in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). • LPS activates PI3Kγ as demonstrated by induction of PIP3 und activation of protein kinase B (AKT). • PI3Kγ is acting as a mediator of macrophage phagocytosis. • Phagocytosis of LPS ac...

Description
Summary:Highlights • Phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) expression is induced to in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). • LPS activates PI3Kγ as demonstrated by induction of PIP3 und activation of protein kinase B (AKT). • PI3Kγ is acting as a mediator of macrophage phagocytosis. • Phagocytosis of LPS activated BMDM was reduced in PI3Kγ depleted cells. • Phosphoinositide 3-kinases alpha, beta or delta do not affect phagocytic activity of macrophages. • The PI3Kγ protein has a lipid-kinase independent role on phagocytosis. • PI3Kγ protein mediated suppression of cAMP signaling is critical for efficient phagocytosis of macrophages
