Localised PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 or PtdIns(3,4)P2 at the phagocytic cup is required for both phagosome closure and Ca2+ signalling in HL60 neutrophils

Several events accompany integrin-mediated phagocytosis by myeloid cells. These include local pseudopod and phagocytic cup formation followed by Ca2+ signalling. However, there is also a role for localised phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5) trisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4,5)P3] production. Here we report that in neutrophilic HL-60 cells expressing PH-Akt-GFP, binding of iC3b-coated zymosan particles (2 µm in diameter) via
2 integrin induces an incomplete phagocytic cup to form before either PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 or phosphatidylinositol (3,4) bisphosphate [PtdIns(3,4)P2] production or Ca2+ signalling. These phosphoinositides then accumulated locally at the site of the phagocytic cup and Ca2+ signalling and phagosome closure follows immediately. Although photobleaching showed that PH-Akt-GFP was freely diffusible in the cytosol and able to dissociate from the phagocytic cup, it was restricted to the plasma membrane of the formed but open phagosome and failed to diffuse into the surrounding plasma membrane or neighbouring phagocytic cups even if connected. Inhibition of phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase or depletion of membrane cholesterol inhibited both Ca2+ signalling and phagosome closure, but had no effect on particle binding or phagocytic cup formation. We therefore conclude that PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 or PtdIns(3,4)P2 generation was not required for the events that initiate the formation of the phagocytic cup, but that anchoring of PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 at the phagocytic cup is an essential step for phagosome closure and Ca2+ signalling.
