To evaluate the role of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and other signaling pathways in neuronal cell differentiation by basic fibroblast-derived growth factor (bFGF), we used a conditionally immortalized cell line from rat hippocampal neurons (H19-7). Previous studies have shown that activation of MAP kinase kinase (MEK) is insufficient to induce neuronal differentiation of H19-7 cells. To test the requirement for MEK and MAP kinase (ERK1 and ERK2), H19-7 cells were treated with the MEK inhibitor PD098059. Although the MEK inhibitor blocked the induction of differentiation by constitutively activated Raf, the H19-7 cells still underwent differentiation by bFGF. These results suggest that an alternative pathway is utilized by bFGF for differentiation of the hippocampal neuronal cells. Expression in the H19-7 cells of a dominant-negative Ras (N17-Ras) or Raf (C4-Raf) blocked differentiation by bFGF, suggesting that Ras and probably Raf are required. Expression of dominant-negative Src (pcSrc295Arg) or microinjection of an anti-Src antibody blocked differentiation by bFGF in H19-7 cells, indicating that bFGF also signals through a Src kinase-mediated pathway. Although neither constitutively activated MEK (MEK-2E) nor v-Src was sufficient individually to differentiate the H19-7 cells, coexpression of constitutively activated MEK and v-Src induced neurite outgrowth. These results suggest that (i) activation of MAP kinase (ERK1 and ERK2) is neither necessary nor sufficient for differentiation by bFGF; (ii) activation of Src kinases is necessary but not sufficient for differentiation by bFGF; and (iii) differentiation of H19-7 neuronal cells by bFGF requires at least two signaling pathways activated by Ras and Src. 相似文献

An increase in the level of active, GTP-bound Ras is not necessary for transformation of chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) by v-Src. This suggests that other Ras-independent pathways contribute to transformation by v-Src. To address the possibility that activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) and the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR/FRAP), represents one of these pathways, we have examined the effect of simultaneous inhibition of the Ras-MAPK and PI3K-mTOR pathways on transformation of CEF by v-Src. Transformation was assessed by the standard parameters of morphological alteration, increased hexose uptake, loss of density inhibition, and anchorage-independent growth. Inhibition of the Ras-MAPK pathway by expression of the dominant-negative Ras mutant HRasN17 or by addition of the MAPK kinase (MEK) inhibitor PD98059 reduced several of these parameters but failed to block transformation. Similarly, inhibition of the PI3K-mTOR pathway by addition of the PI3K inhibitor 2-[4-morpholinyl]-8-phenyl-4H-1-benzopyran-4-one (LY294002) or the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin, although reducing several parameters of transformation, also failed to block transformation. However, simultaneous inhibition of signaling by the Ras-MAPK pathway and the PI3K-mTOR pathway essentially blocked transformation. These data indicate that transformation of CEF by v-Src is mediated by two parallel pathways, the Ras-MAPK pathway and the PI-3K-mTOR pathway, which both contribute to transformation. The possibility that simultaneous activation of other pathways is also required is not excluded. 相似文献

Mitogenic G protein-coupled receptors, such as those for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and thrombin, activate the Ras/MAP kinase pathway via pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive Gi, tyrosine kinase activity and recruitment of Grb2, which targets guanine nucleotide exchange activity to Ras. Little is known about the tyrosine phosphorylations involved, although Src activation and Shc phosphorylation are thought to be critical. We find that agonist-induced Src activation in Rat-1 cells is not mediated by Gi and shows no correlation with Ras/MAP kinase activation. Furthermore, LPA-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc is PTX-insensitive and Ca2+-dependent in COS cells, but undetectable in Rat-1 cells. Expression of dominant-negative Src or Shc does not affect MAP kinase activation by LPA. Thus, Gi-mediated Ras/MAP kinase activation in fibroblasts and COS cells involves neither Src nor Shc. Instead, we detect a 100 kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein (p100) that binds to the C-terminal SH3 domain of Grb2 in a strictly Gi- and agonist-dependent manner. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors and wortmannin, a phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase inhibitor, prevent p100-Grb2 complex formation and MAP kinase activation by LPA. Our results suggest that the p100-Grb2 complex, together with an upstream non-Src tyrosine kinase and PI 3-kinase, couples Gi to Ras/MAP kinase activation, while Src and Shc act in a different pathway. 相似文献

The Met/Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) receptor tyrosine kinase is oncogenically activated through a rearrangement that creates a hybrid gene Tpr-Met. The resultant chimeric p65(Tpr-Met) protein is constitutively phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in vivo and associates with a number of SH2-containing signaling molecules including the p85 subunit of PI-3 kinase and the Grb2 adaptor protein, which couples receptor tyrosine kinases to the Ras signaling pathway. Mutation of the binding site for Grb2 impairs the ability of Tpr-Met oncoprotein to transform fibroblasts, suggesting that the activation of the Ras/MAP kinase signaling pathway through Grb2 may be essential for cellular transformation. To test this hypothesis dominant-negative mutants of Grb2 with deletions of the SH3 domains were introduced into Tpr-Met transformed fibroblasts. Cells overexpressing the mutants were found to be morphologically reverted and exhibited reduced growth in soft agar. Surprisingly, the Grb2 mutants blocked activation of the JNK/SAPK but not MAP kinase activity induced by the Tpr-Met oncoprotein. Additionally, cells expressing dominant-negative Grb2 mutants had reduced PI-3-kinase activity and dominant-negative mutants of Rac1 blocked both Tpr-Met-induced transformation and activation of JNK. These experiments reveal a novel link between Met and the JNK pathway, which is essential for transformation by this oncogene. 相似文献

The B cell receptor (BCR) initiates three major signaling pathways: the Ras pathway, which leads to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation; the phospholipase C-gamma pathway, which causes calcium mobilization; and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) pathway. These combine to induce different biological responses depending on the context of the BCR signal. Both the Ras and PI 3-kinase pathways are important for B cell development and activation. Several model systems show evidence of cross-regulation between these pathways. Here we demonstrate through the use of PI 3-kinase inhibitors and a dominant-negative PI 3-kinase construct that the BCR-induced phosphorylation and activation of ERK is dependent on PI 3-kinase. PI 3-kinase feeds into the Ras signaling cascade at multiple points, both upstream and downstream of Ras. We also show that ERK activation is dependent on phospholipase C-gamma, in keeping with its dependence on calcium mobilization. Last, the activation of PI 3-kinase itself is completely dependent on Ras. We conclude that the PI 3-kinase and Ras signaling cascades are intimately connected in B cells and that the activation of ERK is a signal integration point, since it requires simultaneous input from all three major signaling pathways. 相似文献

Proteolysis by the ubiquitin/proteasome pathway regulates the intracellular level of several proteins, some of which control cell proliferation and cell cycle progression. To determine what kinds of signaling cascades are activated or inhibited by proteasome inhibition, we treated PC12 cells with specific proteasome inhibitors and subsequently performed in-gel kinase assays. N-Acetyl-Leu-Leu-norleucinal and lactacystin, which inhibit the activity of the proteasome, induced the activation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases [extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs) 1 and 2]. In contrast, N-acetyl-Leu-Leu-methional, which inhibits the activity of calpains, but not of the proteasome, failed to induce ERK activation. Uniquely, the kinetics of MAP kinase activation induced by proteasome inhibitors are very slow compared with those resulting from activation by nerve growth factor; ERK activation is detectable only after a 5-h treatment with the inhibitors, and its activity remained unchanged for at least until 27 h. Proteasome inhibitor-initiated ERK activation is inhibited by pretreatment with the ERK kinase inhibitor PD 98059, as well as by overexpression of a dominant-negative form of Ras. Thus, proteasome inhibitors induce sustained ERK activation in a Ras-dependent manner. Proteasome inhibitor-induced neurite outgrowth, however, is not inhibited by PD 98059, indicating that sustained activation of ERKs is not the factor responsible for proteasome inhibitor-induced morphological differentiation. Our data suggest the presence of a novel mechanism for activation of the MAP kinase cascade that involves proteasome activity. 相似文献

To gain a clearer insight into the mechanisms of skeletal muscle cell growth, differentiation and maintenance, we have developed a primary adult human skeletal muscle cell model. Cells were cultured from biopsies of rectus muscle from the anterior abdominal wall of patients undergoing elective surgery. Under differentiating conditions, all cultures formed myotubes, irrespective of initial myoblast number. Stimulation with both IGF-I and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) increased cellular proliferation but while IGF-I subsequently increased myoblast differentiation, via both hyperplasia and hypertrophy, TNFalpha inhibited the initiation of differentiation, but did not induce apoptosis. Addition of IGF-I stimulated both the MAP kinase and the phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) signalling pathways while treatment with TNFalpha preferentially led to MAP kinase activation although with a very different profile of activation compared to IGF-I. Data using the MEK inhibitor UO126 showed MAP kinase activity is not only needed for cellular proliferation but is also necessary for both the initiation and the progression of primary human myoblast differentiation. The PI 3-kinase pathway is also involved in differentiation, but activation of this pathway could not relieve inhibition of differentiation by TNFalpha or UO126. Our results show that the controlled temporal and amplitude of activation of multiple signalling pathways is needed for successful myoblast differentiation. 相似文献

We have investigated the signaling pathways initiated by insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-I), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) leading to activation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) in L6 myotubes. Insulin but not IGF-I or PDGF-induced ERK activation was abrogated by Ras inhibition, either by treatment with the farnesyl transferase inhibitor FTP III, or by actin disassembly by cytochalasin D, previously shown to inhibit Ras activation. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide abolished PDGF but not IGF-I or insulin-induced ERK activation. ERK activation by insulin, IGF-I, or PDGF was unaffected by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin but was abolished by the MEK inhibitor PD98059. In contrast, activation of the pathway involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3k), protein kinase B, and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) was mediated similarly by all three receptors, through a PI 3-kinase-dependent but Ras- and actin-independent pathway. We conclude that ERK activation is mediated by distinct pathways including: (i) a cytoskeleton- and Ras-dependent, PKC-independent, pathway utilized by insulin, (ii) a PKC-dependent, cytoskeleton- and Ras-independent pathway used by PDGF, and (iii) a cytoskeleton-, Ras-, and PKC-independent pathway utilized by IGF-I. 相似文献

Members of the mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase family, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, stress-activated protein kinase-1/c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase, and p38, are central elements that transduce the signal generated by growth factors, cytokines, and stressing agents. It is well known that the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) activates extracellular signal-regulated kinase, which leads to cellular mitogenic response. On the other hand, the role of the other MAP kinases in mediating the cellular function of PDGF remains unclear. In the present study, we have investigated the functional role of the other MAP kinases in PDGF-mediated cellular responses. We show that ligand stimulation of PDGF receptors leads to the activation of p38 but not stress-activated protein kinase-1/c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase. Experiments using a specific inhibitor of p38, SB203580, show that the activation of p38 is required for PDGF-induced cell motility responses such as cell migration and actin reorganization but not required for PDGF-stimulated DNA synthesis. Analyses of tyrosine residue-mutated PDGF receptors show that Src homology 2 domain-containing proteins including Src family kinases, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, the GTPase-activating protein of Ras, the Src homology 2 domain-containing phosphatase SHP-2, phospholipase C-gamma, and Crk do not play a major role in mediating the PDGF-induced activation of p38. Finally, the expression of dominant-negative Ras but not dominant-negative Rac inhibited p38 activation by PDGF, suggesting that Ras is a potent mediator in the p38 activation pathway downstream of PDGF receptors. Taken together, our present study proposes the existence of a Ras-dependent pathway for the activation of p38, which is important for cell motility responses elicited by PDGF stimulation. 相似文献

The ability of activated Ras to induce growth arrest of human ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE) cells via induction of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(WAF1/CIP1) has been used to screen for Ras pathway signaling components using a library of RNA interference (RNAi) vectors targeting the kinome. Two known Ras-regulated kinases were identified, phosphoinositide 3-kinase p110alpha and ribosomal protein S6 kinase p70(S6K1), plus the MAP kinase kinase kinase kinase MINK, which had not previously been implicated in Ras signaling. MINK is activated after Ras induction via a mechanism involving reactive oxygen species and mediates stimulation of the stress-activated protein kinase p38 MAPK downstream of the Raf/ERK pathway. p38 MAPK activation is essential for Ras-induced p21(WAF1/CIP1) upregulation and cell cycle arrest. MINK is thus a distal target of Ras signaling in the induction of a growth-arrested, senescent-like phenotype that may act to oppose oncogenic transformation in HOSE cells. 相似文献

Induction of neurite extension and survival in pheochromocytoma cells by the Rit GTPase 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The Rit, Rin, and Ric proteins comprise a distinct and evolutionarily conserved subfamily of the Ras-like small G-proteins. Although these proteins share the majority of core effector domain residues with Ras, recent studies suggest that Rit uses novel effector pathways to regulate NIH3T3 cell proliferation and transformation, while the functions of Rin and Ric remain largely unknown. Since we demonstrate that Rit is expressed in neurons, we investigated the role of Rit signaling in promoting the differentiation and survival of pheochromocytoma cells. In this study, we show that expression of constitutively active Rit (RitL79) in PC6 cells results in neuronal differentiation, characterized by the elaboration of an extensive network of neurite-like processes that are morphologically distinct from those mediated by the expression of oncogenic Ras. Although activated Rit fails to stimulate mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathways in COS cells, RitL79 induced the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in PC6 cells. We also find that Rit-mediated effects on neurite outgrowth can be blocked by co-expression of dominant-negative mutants of C-Raf1 or mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1). Moreover, expression of dominant-negative Rit is sufficient to inhibit NGF-induced neurite outgrowth. Expression of active Rit inhibits growth factor-withdrawal mediated apoptosis of PC6 cells, but does not induce phosphorylation of Akt/protein kinase B, suggesting that survival does not utilize the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt pathway. Instead, pharmacological inhibitors of MEK block Rit-stimulated cell survival. Taken together, these studies suggest that Rit represents a distinct regulatory protein, capable of mediating differentiation and cell survival in PC6 cells using a MEK-dependent signaling pathway to achieve its effects. 相似文献

When expressed in PC12 cells, the platelet-derived growth factor beta receptor (beta PDGF-R) mediates cell differentiation. Mutational analysis of the beta PDGF-R indicated that persistent receptor stimulation of the Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway alone was insufficient to sustain PC12 cell differentiation. PDGF receptor activation of signal pathways involving p60c-src or the persistent regulation of phospholipase C gamma was required for PC12 cell differentiation. beta PDGF-R regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, the GTPase-activating protein of Ras, and the tyrosine phosphatase, Syp, was not required for PC12 cell differentiation. In contrast to overexpression of oncoproteins involved in regulating the MAP kinase pathway, growth factor receptor-mediated differentiation of PC12 cells requires the integration of other signals with the Ras/Raf/MAP kinase pathway. 相似文献

We investigated the production of hyaluronan (HA) and its effect on cell motility in cells expressing the v-src mutants. Transformation of 3Y1 by v-src virtually activated HA secretion, whereas G2A v-src, a nonmyristoylated form of v-src defective in cell transformation, had no effect. In cells expressing the temperature-sensitive mutant of v-Src, HA secretion was temperature dependent. In addition, HA as small as 1 nM, on the other side, activated cell motility in a tumor-specific manner. HA treatment strongly activated the motility of v-Src-transformed 3Y1, whereas it showed no effect on 3Y1- and 3Y1-expressing G2A v-src. HA-dependent cell locomotion was strongly blocked by either expression of dominant-negative Ras or treatment with a Ras farnesyltransferase inhibitor. Similarly, both the MEK1 inhibitor and the kinase inhibitor clearly inhibited HA-dependent cell locomotion. In contrast, cells transformed with an active MEK1 did not respond to the HA. Finally, an anti-CD44-neutralizing antibody could block the activation of cell motility by HA as well as the HA-dependent phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt. Taken together, these results suggest that simultaneous activation of the Ras-mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathway by the HA-CD44 interaction is required for the activation of HA-dependent cell locomotion in v-Src-transformed cells. 相似文献

Our previous work has demonstrated that the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), acting through a single receptor, stimulate both proliferation and differentiation of L6A1 myoblasts. This unique model system has enabled us to closely examine the switch that regulates these two opposing responses. We have previously shown, using specific inhibitors of the IGF-I signal transduction pathway, that the mitogenic response is mediated by the Ras/Raf/MAP kinase pathway and the myogenic response by the PI 3-kinase/p70s6k pathway (Coolican SA, Samuel DS, Ewton DZ, McWade FJ, Florini JR, J Biol Chem 1997; 272: 6653-62). In that study we found that PD098059, an inhibitor of MEK activation, inhibited the proliferative response, but dramatically enhanced IGF-stimulated differentiation which was associated with elevation of p70s6k activity. Since there have been reports of elevation of Raf-1 activity in PD098059-treated L6 myoblasts, and stimulation of p70s6k activity in cells expressing an activated Raf-1, it was important to determine whether or not Raf-1 elevation plays a role in the myogenic response. To test this, we have transfected L6A1 myoblasts with delta Raf-1:ER, an estradiol-regulated form of oncogenic Raf-1. We found that activation of Raf-1 by estradiol resulted in increased phosphorylation of p42 and p44 MAP kinases and stimulation of proliferation. In contrast, Raf-1 activation inhibited all measured aspects of the myogenic response: myogenin expression, creatine kinase elevation, and fusion of myoblasts to form myotubes. In addition, we found no elevation of p70s6k activity upon Raf-1 activation. These results indicate the following: (1) stimulation of myogenic differentiation by PD098059 treatment is not simply due to the elevation of Raf-1, (2) Raf-1 has a positive role in the MAP kinase pathway and myoblast proliferation, and (3) Raf-1 activation inhibits myogenesis, possibly by forcing cells to remain in the proliferative state. 相似文献

Evasion of apoptosis appears to be a necessary event in tumor progression. Some oncogenes, such as c-myc and E1A, induce apoptosis in the absence of survival factors. However, others, such as bcl-2 and v-src, activate antiapoptotic pathways. For v-Src, these antiapoptotic pathways are dependent on the function of Ras, phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, and Stat3. Here we asked whether v-Src can activate a proapoptotic signal when survival signaling is inhibited. We show that when the functions of Ras and PI 3-kinase are inhibited, v-src-transformed Rat-2 fibroblasts undergo apoptosis, evidenced by loss of adherence, nuclear fragmentation, and chromosomal DNA degradation. The apoptotic response is dependent on activation of caspase 3. Under similar conditions nontransformed Rat-2 cells undergo considerably lower levels of apoptosis. Apoptosis induced by v-Src is accompanied by a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and release of cytochrome c and is blocked by overexpression of bcl-2, indicating that it is mediated by the mitochondrial pathway. However apoptosis induced by v-Src is not accompanied by an increase in the level of p53 and is not dependent on p53 function. Thus v-Src generates a p53-independent proapoptotic signal. 相似文献
