Extracellular ATP and other nucleotides act through specific cell surface receptors and regulate a wide variety of cellular responses in many cell types and tissues. In this study, we demonstrate that murine mast cells express several P2Y and P2X receptor subtypes including P2X(7), and describe functional responses of these cells to extracellular ATP. Stimulation of bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC), as well as MC/9 and P815 mast cell lines with millimolar concentrations of ATP, resulted in Ca(2+) influx across the cellular membrane and cell permeabilization. Moreover, brief exposures to ATP were sufficient to induce apoptosis in BMMCs, MC/9, and P815 cells which involved activation of caspase-3 and -8. However, in the time period between commitment to apoptosis and actual cell death, ATP triggered rapid but transient phosphorylation of multiple signaling molecules in BMMCs and MC/9 cells, including ERK, Jak2, and STAT6. In addition, ATP stimulation enhanced the expression of several proinflammatory cytokines, such as IL-4, IL-6, IL-13, and TNF-alpha. The effects of ATP were mimicked by submillimolar concentrations of 3-O-(4'-benzoyl)-benzoyl-benzoyl-ATP, and were inhibited by pretreatment of mast cells with a selective blocker of human and mouse P2X(7) receptor, 1[N,O-bis(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-N-methyl-l-tyrosyl]-4-phenylpiperazine, as well as oxidized ATP. The nucleotide selectivity and pharmacological profile data support the role for P2X(7) receptor as the mediator of the ATP-induced responses. Given the importance of mast cells in diverse pathological conditions, the ability of extracellular ATP to induce the P2X(7)-mediated apoptosis in these cells may facilitate the development of new strategies to modulate mast cell activities. 相似文献

When mast cells are activated through their high affinity IgE receptors (FcepsilonRI), release of chemical mediators is followed by secretion of multiple cytokines. In this work, we report that IL-3-dependent mast cell line MC9 undergoes apoptosis when IL-3 is withdrawn. However, cross-linking of FcepsilonRI prevents apoptosis of MC9 by an autocrine mechanism, producing IL-3, IL-4, and GM-CSF. Although stimulated MC9 synthesizes mRNAs and proteins of these cytokines, secretion of endogenous IL-3 and GM-CSF is not enough for cell survival, whereas IL-4 itself does not have survival effect on MC9, but it induces cell aggregation by expressing LFA-1 and makes it reactive to endogenous growth factors. Addition of dexamethazone (DXM) to MC9 results in significant down-regulation of IL-4 mRNA in activated MC9. However, mRNA levels of IL-3 and GM-CSF are not changed by DXM. DXM also directly down-regulates the expression of ICAM-1 that is the high affinity ligand of LFA-1, by which the self-aggregation of MC9 is inhibited. Thus, glucocorticoids suppress autocrine survival of mast cells by inhibiting IL-4 production and ICAM-1 expression. 相似文献

IL-4 is a cytokine which can induce B-lymphocyte proliferation, increase cell-surface Ia expression, and induce some activated B cells to differentiate and begin to secrete IgE. IL-4 binds specifically to a cell-surface receptor (IL-4R) on cells from a variety of lineages including T and B cells. In general both primary cells and in vitro cell lines express less than 5000 receptors per cell. Utilizing a subclone of the cytotoxic T cell line CTLL-2 expressing a high level of IL-4R, mAb against the murine IL-4R were prepared. Two mAb have been identified which have different properties. These antibodies, designated M1 and M2, recognize sequences specific to the murine IL-4R. Immunoprecipitation studies with M1 and M2 on CTLL-2 cells have identified the receptor as a Mr = 145,000 cell-surface protein. Similar results have been obtained with the recently isolated full length murine IL-4R cDNA expressed in COS-7 cells. In addition the antibodies are capable of inhibiting IL-4 binding. One antibody, M1, is also a potent inhibitor of IL-4-induced proliferation. These antibodies will be useful in dissecting a wide array of activities attributed to IL-4. 相似文献

PGE(2) is an endogenously synthesized inflammatory mediator that is over-produced in chronic inflammatory disorders such as allergic asthma. In this study, we investigated the regulatory effects of PGE(2) on mast cell degranulation and the production of cytokines relevant to allergic disease. Murine bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMC) were treated with PGE(2) alone or in the context of IgE-mediated activation. PGE(2) treatment alone specifically enhanced IL-6 production, and neither induced nor inhibited degranulation and the release of other mast cell cytokines, including IL-4, IL-10, IFN-gamma, and GM-CSF. IgE/Ag-mediated activation of BMMC induced the secretion of IL-4, IL-6, and GM-CSF, and concurrent PGE(2) stimulation synergistically increased mast cell degranulation and IL-6 and GM-CSF, but not IL-4, production. A similar potentiation of degranulation and IL-6 production by PGE(2), in the context of IgE-directed activation, was observed in the well-established IL-3-dependent murine mast cell line, MC/9. RT-PCR analysis of unstimulated MC/9 cells revealed the expression of EP(1), EP(3), and EP(4) PGE receptor subtypes, including a novel splice variant of the EP(1) receptor. Pharmacological studies using PGE receptor subtype-selective analogs showed that the potentiation of IgE/Ag-induced degranulation and IL-6 production by PGE(2) is mediated through EP(1) and/or EP(3) receptors. Our results suggest that PGE(2) may profoundly alter the nature of the mast cell degranulation and cytokine responses at sites of allergic inflammation through an EP(1)/EP(3)-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

In this report a method for the affinity purification and radiolabeling of recombinant mouse interleukin (IL)-4 is described. It is shown on the basis of several criteria that IL-4 retains full biologic activity after radioiodination and can therefore be used as a valid model for measuring the binding characteristics of native IL-4. By using Scatchard plot analysis of equilibrium binding data, it is demonstrated that 125I-IL-4 binds to a high affinity cell surface receptor which is expressed by both hemopoietic and nonhemopoietic cells. The dissociation constant for 125I-IL-4 (Kd = 20 to 60 pM) corresponds to the concentration of IL-4 which gives 50% biologic activity (i.e., 10 to 30 pM). Binding of 125I-IL-4 is rapid (t1/2 of 2 min), whereas dissociation occurs at a slow rate (t1/2 approximately 4 hr). The IL-4 receptor shows a high degree of specificity. Whereas unlabeled mouse IL-4 competed with mouse 125I-IL-4 in an equimolar fashion for binding to IL-4 receptors, several other lymphokines, including mouse IL-2, IL-3, interferon-gamma, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and human IL-1, IL-2, and IL-4 were unable to inhibit, even at molar excesses of 400 to 800-fold. At 37 degrees C, 125I-IL-4 is rapidly internalized (approximately 200 molecules/cell/min) by HT-2 cells, with at least 85% of cell surface receptors being functional in this respect. Receptors for IL-4 were found to be expressed by subclasses of T and B cells, mast cells, macrophages, and by cells of the myeloid and erythroid lineages. This wide distribution of receptor expression closely matches the known spectrum of biologic activities of IL-4, including proliferation and/or differentiation of T and B cells, mast cells and granulocytes, and induction of macrophage antigen-presenting capacity. IL-4 receptors were also found on a variety of nonhemopoietic cells such as cloned stromal cell lines from the bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and brain, and on muscle, brain, melanoma, fibroblast, and liver cells. Indeed, only 5 of more than 90 cell types tested have undetectable numbers of IL-4 receptors. The biologic effects of IL-4 on nonhemopoietic cells have not yet been reported and await elucidation. 相似文献

IL-4 is a pleiotropic cytokine that signals through STAT6 to direct the transactivation of multiple gene targets. In this study, we demonstrate that mast cells express a distinct STAT6 isoform. This "mast cell STAT" is a product of the STAT6 gene, but is only 65 kDa in size and appears to lack the defined C-terminal transactivation domain. Despite the presence of the conventional 94-kDa STAT6 molecule, it is the smaller isoform that associates with a consensus STAT6 binding site in extracts from IL-4-treated mast cells. This is the first evidence that STAT6 isoforms can be preferentially activated and bind to DNA in a cell-specific manner. These results imply that an additional level of specificity in the IL-4R signaling mechanism exists and may partially explain the diverse effects that IL-4 exerts on different cell types. 相似文献

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a pleiotropic lymphokine which plays an important role in the immune system by regulating proliferation and differentiation of a wide variety of lymphoid and myeloid cells. These biological effects are manifested via binding of IL-4 to specific membrane-associated high affinity receptors. While the IL-4 receptor (IL-4R) cDNA expresses high affinity binding sites when transfected in COS7 cells, its intracellular domain lacks consensus motifs for known signal transducing molecules such as a tyrosine kinase. In this study, we use a DNA deletion approach to explore the mechanism of signal transduction utilized by the human IL-4R cDNA expressed in a murine pro-B cell line, Ba/F3 cells. Using this system, we have identified the critical region of the cytoplasmic domain of human IL-4R for human IL-4-induced transduction of a growth signal in these cells. Our data indicate that the critical region for signal transduction is located between amino acid residues 433-473 numbering from the carboxyl terminus. This region is highly conserved between mouse and human IL-4R but lacks homology with other cytokine receptors. Our studies additionally demonstrate that the cytoplasmic domain is not essential for forming high affinity IL-4-binding sites nor for ligand internalization. 相似文献

Murine interleukin-5 (IL-5) is known to play an essential role in Ig production of B cells and proliferation and differentiation of eosinophils. Here, we have isolated cDNA clones encoding a murine IL-5 receptor by expression screening of a library prepared from a murine IL-5 dependent early B cell line. A cDNA library was expressed in COS7 cells and screened by panning with the use of anti-IL-5 receptor monoclonal antibodies. The deduced amino acid sequence analysis demonstrates that the receptor is a glycoprotein of 415 amino acids (Mr 45,284), including an N-terminal hydrophobic region (17 amino acids), a glycosylated extracellular domain (322 amino acids), a single transmembrane segment (22 amino acids) and a cytoplasmic tail (54 amino acids). COS7 cells transfected with the cDNA expressed a 60 kd protein that bound IL-5 with a single class of affinity (KD = 2-10 nM). FDC-P1 cells transfected with the cDNA for murine IL-5 receptor showed the expression of IL-5 binding sites with both low (KD = 6 nM) and high affinity (KD = 30 pM) and acquired responsiveness to IL-5 for proliferation, although parental FDC-P1 cells did not show any detectable IL-5 binding. In addition, several cDNA clones encoding soluble forms of the IL-5 receptor were isolated. Northern blot analysis showed that two species of mRNAs (5.0 kb and 5.8 kb) were detected in cell lines that display binding sites for murine IL-5. Homology search for the amino acid sequence of the IL-5 receptor reveals that the IL-5 receptor contains a common motif of a cytokine receptor family that is recently identified. 相似文献

The cDNA of the human CXCR4/fusin was isolated from a human HeLa cell cDNA library by PCR and functionally expressed in Sf9 insect cells. The recombinant receptor was found to bind its natural ligand SDF-1alpha with an affinity comparable to that of the native receptor. Sequence-specific antibodies against each of the four extracellular domains were generated and used to investigate the interactions between the different domains of the receptor and the ligand. Each of the four antibodies was found to be able to inhibit ligand binding. CXCR4 was shown to be a glycoprotein. The role of N-glycosylation of CXCR4 in ligand binding was investigated in the insect cells overexpressed with recombinant CXCR4. Two potential N-glycosylation sites (Asn-11 and Asn-176) were either singly or doubly mutated to a leucine residue. Both single mutant receptors exhibited a significant decrease in ligand binding activity and affinity. The double mutant receptor showed little binding activity. Our data suggest that all of the extracellular domains are involved in ligand-receptor interactions and that N-glycosylation is required to maintain high-affinity ligand binding. 相似文献

Interleukin-3 (IL-3) is a cytokine produced by activated T-cells and mast cells that is active on a broad range of hematopoietic cells and in the nervous system and appears to be important in several chronic inflammatory diseases. In this study, alanine substitutions were used to investigate the role of residues of the human beta-common (hbetac) receptor and the murine IL-3-specific (beta(IL-3)) receptor in IL-3 binding. We show that the domain 1 residues, Tyr(15) and Phe(79), of the hbetac receptor are important for high affinity IL-3 binding and receptor activation as shown previously for the related cytokines, interleukin-5 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, which also signal through this receptor subunit. From the x-ray structure of hbetac, it is clear that the domain 1 residues cooperate with domain 4 residues to form a novel ligand-binding interface involving the two protein chains of the intertwined homodimer receptor. We demonstrate by ultracentrifugation that the beta(IL-3) receptor is also a homodimer. Its high sequence homology with hbetac suggests that their structures are homologous, and we identified an analogous binding interface in beta(IL-3) for direct IL-3 binding to the high affinity binding site in hbetac. Tyr(21) (A-B loop), Phe(85), and Asn(87) (E-F loop) of domain 1; Ile(320) of the interdomain loop; and Tyr(348) (B'-C' loop) and Tyr(401) (F'-G' loop) of domain 4 were shown to have critical individual roles and Arg(84) and Tyr(317) major secondary roles in direct murine IL-3 binding to the beta(IL-3)receptor. Most surprising, none of the key residues for direct IL-3 binding were critical for high affinity binding in the presence of the murine IL-3 alpha receptor, indicating a fundamentally different mechanism of high affinity binding to that used by hbetac. 相似文献

Tissue mast cells often localize in close proximity to the basement membrane of endothelial cells and increase at sites of inflammation. The reason for this unique tissue distribution is unknown. We report here that both the murine mast cell line PT18 and mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells possess functional receptors for laminin, and exhibit adhesion, spreading and redistribution of histamine-containing granules on a laminin substratum. This adherence is enhanced in the presence of purified IL-3 and can be inhibited by antibodies to laminin and by antibodies to laminin receptors. Northern analysis showed a high level of mRNA for a 32-kDa laminin receptor in PT18 mast cells. Mouse bone marrow-derived cultures initially exhibited a low level of the mRNA expression. However, the expression of the laminin receptor mRNA is induced rapidly within 1 wk of culture with IL-3. Thus, mast cells exhibit functional laminin receptors that may explain the tissue distribution of mast cells and their accumulation at sites of tissue injury. 相似文献

The melanocortin-4 receptor (MC-4R) is a 7-transmembrane protein, which is involved in the central regulation of appetite and obesity. Despite the great interest in this protein, tools for detecting this molecule (as expressed on the cell surface in its native state) have been unavailable. Radioactive- or otherwise labeled ligands showed low receptor specificity to this particular melanocortin receptor isotype. Also, the antibodies were only available for epitopes that were displayed in the cytoplasm. To produce antibodies that enable the detection of this receptor (as expressed on the cell surface without disruption of the target cells), a candidate epitope was selected from the extracellular domains by a computer-aided analysis of the IC-4R secondary structure. This particular region was then recombinantly expressed in E. coli. Immunization of BALB/c mice with the recombinant proteins induced a specific immune reaction, which resulted in the production of MC-4R-specific antibodies. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays confirmed the specificity of these antibodies. To examine whether this tool also reacts with native cell surface-displayed MC-4R, HEK-293 cells were transfected with the human MC-4R cDNA. They were analyzed with these antibodies using Western blot and flow cytometry. Specificity and exclusion of cross-reactivity of these antibodies to other MC receptors were further confirmed by an immunofluorescence analysis of the HEK-293 cells that were transfected with other MC receptor isotypes. It is evident that with the availability of this tool, studies on the cell- and tissue-specificity, as well as the regulation mechanism of the MC-4 receptor, will be largely facilitated. 相似文献

We tested the endogenous tripeptide TRH (thyrotropin releasing hormone) ability to bind to MC (melanocortin) receptor subtypes. We discovered that TRH binds to the human MCI receptor expressed in COS cells and to murine B16 melanoma cells with 5790+/-1010 nM and 6370+/-1260 nM Ki's, respectively. TRH did not bind to the human MC3, MC4 or MC5 receptor subtypes. Moreover, TRH also stimulated cAMP production in murine B16 melanoma cells reaching the same maximum level of cAMP as found for alpha-MSH. However, several analogues of TRH, including TRH-OH, TRH-Gly-NH2 and other analogues, where each of the three amino acid residues in TRH had been exchanged by a related residue, did not bind to any of the MC receptors tested in this study. C(alpha) atoms of molecular models of TRH and the core of a MSH peptide were aligned with r.m.s. of 0.01 A. Moreover, TRH could be docked into a binding pocket of a molecular model of the MC1 receptor at only a little higher energy than a short cyclic MSH peptide. The data indicate a similarity in the mode of TRH and MSH activation of the MCI receptor. 相似文献

This paper describes studies on the migratory behavior of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase using antibodies that are specific for either the kinase domain or the extracellular domain of the receptor. Antiserum was raised to a 42,000-D subfragment of EGF receptor, which was shown earlier to carry the kinase catalytic site but not the EGF-binding site. Another antiserum was raised to the pure intact 170,000-D EGF receptor. The specificities of these antibodies were established by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting experiments. The domain specificity was examined by indirect immunofluorescent staining of fixed cells. The anti-42-kD peptide antibody could bind specifically to EGF receptors of both human and murine origin and was found to be directed to the cytoplasmic part of the molecule. It did not bind to EGF receptor-negative cells, which contained other types of tyrosine kinases. The antibodies raised against the intact receptor recognized only EGF receptor-specific epitopes and were directed to the extracellular part of the molecule. The anti-receptor antibodies described above were used to visualize the cyclic locomotory behavior of EGF receptor kinase under various conditions of EGF stimulation and withdrawal. The receptor was examined in fixed and permeabilized cells by indirect immunofluorescent staining. The results demonstrate the following: (a) the receptor kinase domain migrates to the perinuclear region upon challenge with EGF; (b) both extracellular and cytoplasmic domains of the receptor are involved in migration as a unit; (c) withdrawal of EGF results in rapid recycling of the perinuclear receptors to the plasma membrane; (d) this return to the cell surface is inhibited by methylamine, chloroquine, and monensin; and (e) neither the internal migration nor the recycling process is blocked by inhibitors of protein biosynthesis. 相似文献

Receptors for interleukin-4 (IL-4) are expressed at low levels on a wide variety of primary cells and cultured cell lines. Fluorescence-activated sorting of CTLL-2 cells resulted in the isolation of a subclone, CTLL 19.4, which expressed 10(6) IL-4 receptors per cell. These cells were used for the purification of IL-4 receptor protein and to prepare a hybrid-subtracted cDNA probe for isolation of cDNA clones. Three classes of IL-4 receptor cDNA were identified. The first encoded a 140 kd membrane bound IL-4 receptor containing extracellular, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic domains. The second class lacked the cytoplasmic region, and the third encoded a secreted form of the receptor. All cDNA clones expressed in COS-7 cells had IL-4 binding properties comparable to the native IL-4 receptor. The soluble form of the IL-4 receptor blocked the ability of IL-4 to induce CTLL cell proliferation and may represent a regulatory molecule specific for IL-4-dependent immune responses. 相似文献

CD200 is a ligand for all members of the CD200R family of immunoregulatory molecules 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

CD200Fc, a chimeric molecule including the extracellular domain of CD200 and a murine IgG2a Fc region, regulates immune responses following engagement of a cell surface receptor, CD200R, expressed on cells of the myeloid and T cell lineage. A recent report focused attention on a family of CD200Rs, but concluded that only one member used CD200 as its ligand. We have also cloned and sequenced a family of CD200Rs, but identify an amino terminus to two of the three isoforms not recognized by previous researchers. We show by FACS, using FITC-labeled CD200Fc, that COS7 cells transfected with all CD200R isoforms bind CD200 as ligand, although the functional consequences of this binding likely differs between the different isoforms. mAbs directed against the CD200 R1/R4 isoforms altered IL-2/IL-4 cytokine production and suppressed CTL responses in a fashion comparable to CD200Fc, with a significantly lesser effect seen following addition of anti-CD200 R2/R3. 相似文献
