Model analysis of difference between EGF pathway and FGF pathway

The difference in time course of Ras and mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade by different growth factors is considered to be the cause of different cellular responses. We have developed the computer simulation of Ras-MAPK signal transduction pathway containing newly identified negative feedback system, Sprouty, and adaptor molecules. Unexpectedly, negative feedback system did not profoundly affect time course of MAPK activation. We propose the key role of fibroblast growth factor receptor substrate 2 (FRS2) in NGF/FGF pathway for sustained MAPK activation. More Grb2-SOS complexes were recruited to the plasma membrane by binding to membrane-bound FRS2 in FGF pathway than in EGF pathway and caused sustained activation of ERK. The EGF pathway with high concentration of EGF receptor also induced sustained MAPK activation, which is consistent with the results in the PC12 cell overexpressing the EGF receptors. The simulated time courses of FRS2 knock-out cells were consistent with those of the reported experimental results.     

力生长因子及其E肽对成骨细胞分化的影响

力生长因子(mechano growth factor,MGF)是新近发现的一种生长因子,由Igf-1基因剪接变异产生,拉伸刺激会促使成骨细胞表达力生长因子.比较分析了MGF及其羧基端E肽(MGF-Ct24E)对成骨细胞前体细胞MC3T3-E1分化的影响.结果显示:MGF和MGF-Ct24E具有显著激活胞外信号调节激酶1/2(Erk1/2)的作用,并降低了成骨细胞碱性磷酸酶、Ⅰ型胶原的表达,促进了骨桥蛋白(OPN)的表达,减少了核心绑定因子(corebinding factor1,Cbfα-1)的核转运量,对成骨细胞的分化具有延迟效应,这种效应通过抑制剂PD98059抑制Erk1/2的活化得到逆转;MGF还能显著激活磷脂酰肌醇3-激酶信号通路中的蛋白激酶B(Akt),该活化作用对成骨细胞分化是必需的,钙沉积分析显示长期培养下的细胞MGF促进了矿化节结的形成.这些结果说明,MGF-Ct24E对成骨细胞的分化具有抑制作用,这种作用与Erk1/2的活化有关,MGF因为包含E肽和IGF-1部分,能分别激活Erk1/2和Akt,因此对成骨细胞分化表现出双重效用,在成骨细胞分化早期,具有一定的延迟效应,而在分化晚期对成骨...     

Defined medium for normal adult human prostatic stromal cells

Summary Stromal-epithelial interactions are pivotal in many aspects of prostatic biology. A defined culture system is critical for the investigation of factors that regulate the growth and differentiation of human prostatic stromal cells. We have identified conditions which promote stromal cell attachment and proliferation in serum-free medium. MCDB 201, originally developed for the clonal growth of chick embryo fibroblasts, proved to be a superior basal medium of those that we tested. Supplementation of MCDB 201 with basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF), insulin-like growth factor (IGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) permitted attachment and exponential growth of cells throughout a 7-d period with an initial inoculum as low as 10³ cells per well of a 96-well microtiter dish. Using these assay conditions, we subsequently verified that basic FGF and IGF, but not PDGF, were required for optimal growth. No activity was found for heparin, transferrin, or the androgen R1881. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) didn’t stimulate growth when added to medium containing basic FGF and IGF, but was moderately stimulatory when added to basal medium alone. Cholera toxin inhibited growth. This simple and efficient culture medium provides a suitable assay system for more extensive studies of growth regulation and differentiation of human prostatic stromal cells, and will provide the basis for future development of a defined medium that supports clonal growth. Characterization of stromal-epithelial interactions will be facilitated by the use of this defined culture system for stromal cells in conjunction with the serum-free culture systems previously developed for human prostatic epithelial cells.     

Differential Effects of EGFR Ligands on Endocytic Sorting of the Receptor

Endocytic downregulation is a pivotal mechanism turning off signalling from the EGF receptor (EGFR). It is well established that whereas EGF binding leads to lysosomal degradation of EGFR, transforming growth factor (TGF)-α causes receptor recycling. TGF-α therefore leads to continuous signalling and is a more potent mitogen than EGF. In addition to EGF and TGF-α, five EGFR ligands have been identified. Although many of these ligands are upregulated in cancers, very little is known about their effect on EGFR trafficking.
We have compared the effect of six different ligands on endocytic trafficking of EGFR. We find that, whereas they all stimulate receptor internalization, they have very diverse effects on endocytic sorting. Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor and Betacellulin target all EGFRs for lysosomal degradation. In contrast, TGF-α and epiregulin lead to complete receptor recycling. EGF leads to lysosomal degradation of the majority but not all EGFRs. Amphiregulin does not target EGFR for lysosomal degradation but causes fast as well as slow EGFR recycling. The Cbl ubiquitin ligases, especially c-Cbl, are responsible for EGFR ubiquitination after stimulation with all ligands, and persistent EGFR phosphorylation and ubiquitination largely correlate with receptor degradation.     

Acute Regulation of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Response to Nerve Growth Factor

PC12 cells possess specific receptors for both nerve growth factor and epidermal growth factor, and by an unknown mechanism, nerve growth factor is able to attenuate the propagation of a mitogenic response to epidermal growth factor. The differentiation response of PC12 cells to nerve growth factor, therefore, predominates over the proliferative response to epidermal growth factor. We have observed that the addition of nerve growth factor to PC12 cells rapidly produces a decrease in surface 125I-epidermal growth factor binding capacity. Unlike previously described nerve growth factor effects on 125I-epidermal growth factor binding capacity, which required several days of nerve growth factor exposure, the decreases we report occur within minutes of nerve growth factor addition: A 50% decrease in 125I-epidermal growth factor binding capacity is evident at 10 min. This rapid nerve growth factor response is concentration dependent; inhibition of 125I-epidermal growth factor binding is detectable at nerve growth factor levels as low as 0.2 ng/ml and is maximal at approximately 50 ng/ml, consistent with known ranges of biological activity. No demonstrable differences in the rate of epidermal growth factor receptor synthesis or degradation were observed in cells acutely exposed to nerve growth factor. Scatchard analysis revealed that acute nerve growth factor treatment decreased the number of both high- and low-affinity 125I-epidermal growth factor binding sites, while the receptor affinity remained unchanged. We have also investigated the involvement of various potential intracellular mediators of nerve growth factor action and of known intracellular modulatory systems of the epidermal growth factor receptor for their capacity to participate in this nerve growth factor activity.

Specific epidermal growth factor receptors on porcine thyroid cell membranes

The influence of islet-activating protein (IAP), a Bordetella pertussis toxin, was studied on adenylate cyclase and GTPase activities in rat adipocyte membranes. Pretreatment of rats or intact rat adipocytes with IAP did not affect adenylate cyclase inhibition by the stable GTP analog, GTP gamma S, whereas inhibition by GTP was abolished. Concomitantly, activation of the adipocyte enzyme by sodium and its inhibition by nicotinic acid were prevented. Furthermore, IAP treatment of adipocyte membranes prevented nicotinic acid-induced stimulation of a high affinity GTPase. The data suggest that a GTP-hydrolyzing system involved in the inhibitory regulation of adenylate cyclase is the target of IAP's action.     

pp42/44MAP Kinase Is a Component of the Neurogenic Pathway Utilized by Nerve Growth Factor in PC12 Cells

Nerve growth factor-stimulated mitogen-activated protein kinase (pp42/44MAP) kinase was characterized by sequential column chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel, phenyl-Sepharose CL4B, and S-200. The kinase displayed an apparent molecular mass of 42 kDa and reacted with an antiphosphotyrosine antibody. Peptide mapping of myelin basic protein revealed the presence of one phosphopeptide that was phosphorylated on Thr-97. pp42/44MAP kinase activity was dependent on Mg2+ and inhibited by K252a both in vitro and in vivo. Nerve growth factor-stimulated kinase activation was diminished by down-regulation of protein kinase C with 200 nM 12-phorbol 13-myristate acetate or with staurosporine (1 nM), a protein kinase C inhibitor. Genistein, a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, blocked nerve growth factor-mediated neurite extension as well as diminished activation of pp42/44MAP kinase. Our data demonstrate that activation of this kinase system by nerve growth factor displays a requirement for both protein kinase C as well as protein tyrosine kinase. In addition, other agents that are capable of promoting neurite outgrowth in PC12 cells, such as fibroblast growth factor or dibutyryl cyclic AMP, do so independently of activating this kinase system.
