The Kaposi's sarcoma herpesvirus (KSHV) open reading frame 74 encodes a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) for chemokines. Exogenous expression of this constitutively active GPCR leads to cell transformation and vascular overgrowth characteristic of Kaposi's sarcoma. We show here that expression of KSHV-GPCR in transfected cells results in constitutive transactivation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) and secretion of interleukin-8, and this response involves activation of G alpha(13) and RhoA. The induced expression of a NF-kappa B luciferase reporter was partially reduced by pertussis toxin and the G beta gamma scavenger transducin, and enhanced by co-expression of G alpha(13) and to a lesser extent, G alpha(q). These results indicate coupling of KSHV-GPCR to multiple G proteins for NF-kappa B activation. Expression of KSHV-GPCR led to stress fiber formation in NIH 3T3 cells. To examine the involvement of the G alpha(13)-RhoA pathway in KSHV-GPCR-mediated NF-kappa B activation, HeLa cells were transfected with KSHV-GPCR alone and in combination with the regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) from p115RhoGEF or a dominant negative RhoA(T19N). Both constructs, as well as the C3 exoenzyme from Clostritium botulinum, partially reduced NF-kappa B activation by KSHV-GPCR, and by a constitutively active G alpha(13)(Q226L). KSHV-GPCR-induced NF-kappa B activation is accompanied by increased secretion of IL-8, a function mimicked by the activated G alpha(13) but not by an activated G alpha(q)(Q209L). These results suggest coupling of KSHV-GPCR to the G alpha(13)-RhoA pathway in addition to other G proteins. 相似文献

We report the effect of heat shock on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced interleukin 12 (IL-12) expression. The augmentation of LPS-induced IL-12 p40 mRNA and p70 protein was significantly suppressed in both peritoneal macrophages and RAW264.7 cells after heat shock at 43 degrees C. The binding activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappa B) was reduced by prior heat shock. LPS did not induce degradation of the inhibitory protein I-kappa B alpha in the shocked cells, which might be a potential mechanism to block NF-kappa B activation. Furthermore, transient transfection assay in RAW264.7 cells demonstrated that LPS-induced activation of DM703 and DM138 (contains NF-kappa B motif) was highly sensitive to heat shock. These data suggest that heat shock influences expression of IL-12 through the I-kappa B/NF-kappa B pathway. 相似文献
