P27Kip1 and p21Cip1 are not required for the formation of active D cyclin-cdk4 complexes 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Our studies address questions pertaining to the regulation of D cyclin-cdk4 activity, and the following results were obtained. Conditions that increased the abundance of the D cyclins also increased the abundance of enzymatically active D cyclin-cdk4 complexes in mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) lacking both p27(Kip1) and p21(Cip1) (p27/p21(-/-)). Such conditions included ectopic expression of cyclin D1 and inhibition of D cyclin degradation by the proteasome inhibitor MG132. However, as determined by treatment of wild-type MEFs with MG132, maximal accumulation of D cyclin-cdk4 complexes required p27(Kip1) and p21(Cip1) and coincided with the formation of inactive D cyclin-cdk4-p27(Kip1) or -p21(Cip1) complexes. p27(Kip1) or p21(Cip1) also increased the abundance of D cyclin-cdk4 complexes and reduced amounts of cdk4 activity when ectopically expressed in p27/p21(-/-) MEFs. Lastly, increases in the stability of the D cyclins accounted for their greater abundance in wild-type MEFs than in p27/p21(-/-) MEFs. We conclude that (i) D cyclin-cdk4 complexes are formed and become active in the absence of p27(Kip1) and p21(Cip1) and (ii) p27(Kip1) and p21(Cip1) maximize the accumulation but inhibit the activity of D cyclin-cdk4 complexes. We suggest that D cyclin-cdk4 complexes are more stable when bound to p27(Kip1) or p21(Cip1) and that formation of ternary complexes also stabilizes the D cyclins. 相似文献

We show that p27 localization is cell cycle regulated and we suggest that active CRM1/RanGTP-mediated nuclear export of p27 may be linked to cytoplasmic p27 proteolysis in early G1. p27 is nuclear in G0 and early G1 and appears transiently in the cytoplasm at the G1/S transition. Association of p27 with the exportin CRM1 was minimal in G0 and increased markedly during G1-to-S phase progression. Proteasome inhibition in mid-G1 did not impair nuclear import of p27, but led to accumulation of p27 in the cytoplasm, suggesting that export precedes degradation for at least part of the cellular p27 pool. p27-CRM1 binding and nuclear export were inhibited by S10A mutation but not by T187A mutation. A putative nuclear export sequence in p27 is identified whose mutation reduced p27-CRM1 interaction, nuclear export, and p27 degradation. Leptomycin B (LMB) did not inhibit p27-CRM1 binding, nor did it prevent p27 export in vitro or in heterokaryon assays. Prebinding of CRM1 to the HIV-1 Rev nuclear export sequence did not inhibit p27-CRM1 interaction, suggesting that p27 binds CRM1 at a non-LMB-sensitive motif. LMB increased total cellular p27 and may do so indirectly, through effects on other p27 regulatory proteins. These data suggest a model in which p27 undergoes active, CRM1-dependent nuclear export and cytoplasmic degradation in early G1. This would permit the incremental activation of cyclin E-Cdk2 leading to cyclin E-Cdk2-mediated T187 phosphorylation and p27 proteolysis in late G1 and S phase. 相似文献

Phosphorylation of p27Kip1 on serine 10 is required for its binding to CRM1 and nuclear export 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Phosphorylation of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1) has been thought to regulate its stability. Ser(10) is the major phosphorylation site of p27(Kip1), and phosphorylation of this residue affects protein stability. Phosphorylation of p27(Kip1) on Ser(10) has now been shown to be required for the binding of CRM1, a carrier protein for nuclear export. The p27(Kip1) protein was translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm at the G(0)-G(1) transition of the cell cycle, and this export was inhibited by leptomycin B, a specific inhibitor of CRM1-dependent nuclear export. The nuclear export and subsequent degradation of p27(Kip1) at the G(0)-G(1) transition were observed in cells lacking Skp2, the F-box protein component of an SCF ubiquitin ligase complex, indicating that these early events are independent of Skp2-mediated proteolysis. Substitution of Ser(10) with Ala (S10A) markedly reduced the extent of p27(Kip1) export, whereas substitution of Ser(10) with Asp (S10D) or Glu (S10E) promoted export. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis showed that CRM1 preferentially interacted with S10D and S10E but not with S10A, suggesting that the phosphorylation of p27(Kip1) on Ser(10) is required for its binding to CRM1 and for its subsequent nuclear export. 相似文献

Cyclin D1 overexpression induces progestin resistance in T-47D breast cancer cells despite p27(Kip1) association with cyclin E-Cdk2 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Long-term growth inhibition, arrest in G(1) phase and reduced activity of both cyclin D1-Cdk4 and cyclin E-Cdk2 are elicited by progestin treatment of breast cancer cells in culture. Decreased cyclin expression, induction of p18(INK4c) and increased association of the CDK inhibitors p21(WAF1/Cip1) and p27(Kip1) with cyclin E-Cdk2 have been implicated in these responses. To determine the role of decreased cyclin expression, T-47D human breast cancer cells constitutively expressing cyclin D1 or cyclin E were treated with the progestin ORG 2058. Overexpression of cyclin E had only a modest effect on growth inhibition. Although cyclin E expression was maintained during progestin treatment, cyclin E-Cdk2 activity decreased by approximately 60%. This was accompanied by p27(Kip1) association with cyclin E-Cdk2, indicating that both cyclin E down-regulation and p27(Kip1) recruitment contribute to the decrease in activity. In contrast, overexpression of cyclin D1 induced progestin resistance and cell proliferation continued despite decreased cyclin E-Cdk2 activity. Progestin treatment of cyclin D1-overexpressing cells was associated with increased p27(Kip1) association with cyclin E-Cdk2. Thus the ability of cyclin D1 to confer progestin resistance does not depend on sequestration of p27(Kip1) away from cyclin E-Cdk2, providing evidence for a critical function of cyclin D1 other than as a high-capacity "sink" for p27(Kip1). These data indicate that regulation of cyclin D1 is a critical element of progestin inhibition in breast cancer cells and suggest that breast cancers overexpressing cyclin D1 may respond poorly to progestin therapy. 相似文献

K cyclin encoded by Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus confers resistance to the cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk) inhibitors p16Ink4A, p21Cip1, and p27Kip1 on the associated cdk6. We have previously shown that K cyclin expression enforces S-phase entry on cells overexpressing p27Kip1 by promoting phosphorylation of p27Kip1 on threonine 187, triggering p27Kip1 down-regulation. Since p21Cip1 acts in a manner similar to that of p27Kip1, we have investigated the subversion of a p21Cip1-induced G1 arrest by K cyclin. Here, we show that p21Cip1 is associated with K cyclin both in overexpression models and in primary effusion lymphoma cells and is a substrate of the K cyclin/cdk6 complex, resulting in phosphorylation of p21Cip1 on serine 130. This phosphoform of p21Cip1 appeared unable to associate with cdk2 in vivo. We further demonstrate that phosphorylation on serine 130 is essential for K cyclin-mediated release of a p21Cip1-imposed G1 arrest. Moreover, we show that under physiological conditions of cell cycle arrest due to elevated levels of p21Cip1 resulting from oxidative stress, K cyclin expression enabled S-phase entry and was associated with p21Cip1 phosphorylation and partial restoration of cdk2 kinase activity. Thus, expression of the viral cyclin enables cells to subvert the cell cycle inhibitory function of p21Cip1 by promoting cdk6-dependent phosphorylation of this antiproliferative protein. 相似文献

The cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p21(Cip1) has a dual role in the regulation of the cell cycle; it is an activator of cyclin D1-CDK4 complexes and an inhibitor of cyclins E/A-CDK2 activity. By affinity chromatography with p21(Cip1)-Sepharose 4B columns, we purified a 39-kDa protein, which was identified by microsequence analysis as the oncoprotein SET. Complexes containing SET and p21(Cip1) were detected in vivo by immunoprecipitation of Namalwa cell extracts using specific anti-p21(Cip1) antibodies. We found that SET bound directly to p21(Cip1) in vitro by the carboxyl-terminal region of p21(Cip1). SET had no direct effect on cyclin E/A-CDK2 activity, although it reversed the inhibition of cyclin E-CDK2, but not of cyclin A-CDK2, induced by p21(Cip1). This result is specific for p21(Cip1), since SET neither bound to p27(Kip1) nor reversed its inhibitory effect on cyclin E-CDK2 or cyclin A-CDK2. Thus, SET appears to be a modulator of p21(Cip1) inhibitory function. These results suggest that SET can regulate G(1)/S transition by modulating the activity of cyclin E-CDK2. 相似文献

Mammalian cardiomyocytes actively proliferate during embryonic stages, following which cardiomyocytes exit their cell cycle after birth. The irreversible cell cycle exit inhibits cardiac regeneration by the proliferation of pre-existing cardiomyocytes. Exactly how the cell cycle exit occurs remains largely unknown. Previously, we showed that cyclin E- and cyclin A-CDK activities are inhibited before the CDKs levels decrease in postnatal stages. This result suggests that factors such as CDK inhibitors (CKIs) inhibit CDK activities, and contribute to the cell cycle exit. In the present study, we focused on a Cip/Kip family, which can inhibit cyclin E- and cyclin A-CDK activities. Expression of p21Cip1 and p27Kip1 but not p57Kip2 showed a peak around postnatal day 5, when cyclin E- and cyclin A-CDK activities start to decrease. p21Cip1 and p27Kip1 bound to cyclin E, cyclin A and CDK2 at postnatal stages. Cell cycle distribution patterns of postnatal cardiomyocytes in p21Cip1 and p27Kip1 knockout mice showed failure in the cell cycle exit at G1-phase, and endoreplication. These results indicate that p21Cip1 and p27Kip play important roles in the cell cycle exit of postnatal cardiomyocytes. 相似文献

Members of the gamma2-herpesvirus family encode cyclin-like proteins that have the ability to deregulate mammalian cell cycle control. Here we report the key features of the viral cyclin encoded by Murine Herpesvirus 68, M cyclin. M cyclin preferentially associated with and activated cdk2; the M cyclin/cdk2 holoenzyme displayed a strong reliance on phosphorylation of the cdk T loop for activity. cdk2 associated with M cyclin exhibited substantial resistance to the cdk inhibitor proteins p21(Cip) and p27(Kip). Furthermore, M cyclin directed cdk2 to phosphorylate p27(Kip1) on threonine 187 (T187) and cellular expression of M cyclin led to down-regulation of p27(Kip1) and the partial subversion of the associated G1 arrest. Mutation of T187 to a non-phosphorylatable alanine rendered the p27(Kip1)-imposed G1 arrest resistant to M cyclin expression. Unlike the related K cyclin, M cyclin was unable to circumvent the G1 arrest associated with p21(Cip1) and was unable to direct its associated catalytic subunit to phosphorylate this cdk inhibitor. These results imply that M cyclin has properties that are distinct from other viral cyclins and that M cyclin expression alone is insufficient for S phase entry. 相似文献

The steroid hormone progesterone regulates proliferation and differentiation in the mammary gland and uterus by cell cycle phase-specific actions. The long-term effect of progestins on T-47D breast cancer cells is inhibition of cellular proliferation. This is accompanied by decreased G(1) cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) activities, redistribution of the CDK inhibitor p27(Kip1) among these CDK complexes, and alterations in the elution profile of cyclin E-Cdk2 upon gel filtration chromatography, such that high-molecular-weight complexes predominate. This study aimed to determine the relative contribution of CDK inhibitors to these events. Following progestin treatment, the majority of cyclin E- and D-CDK complexes were bound to p27(Kip1) and few were bound to p21(Cip1). In vitro, recombinant His(6)-p27 could quantitatively reproduce the effects on cyclin E-Cdk2 kinase activity and the shift in molecular weight observed following progestin treatment. In contrast, cyclin D-Cdk4 was not inhibited by His(6)-p27 in vitro or p27(Kip1) in vivo. However, an increase in the expression of the Cdk4/6 inhibitor p18(INK4c) and its extensive association with Cdk4 and Cdk6 were apparent following progestin treatment. Recombinant p18(INK4c) led to the reassortment of cyclin-CDK-CDK inhibitor complexes in vitro, with consequent decrease in cyclin E-Cdk2 activity. These results suggest a concerted model of progestin action whereby p27(Kip1) and p18(INK4c) cooperate to inhibit cyclin E-Cdk2 and Cdk4. Since similar models have been developed for growth inhibition by transforming growth factor beta and during adipogenesis, interaction between the Cip/Kip and INK4 families of inhibitors may be a common theme in physiological growth arrest and differentiation. 相似文献

Activation of the somatostatin receptor sst2 inhibits cell proliferation by a mechanism involving the stimulation of the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. The cell cycle regulatory events leading to sst2-mediated growth arrest are not known. Here, we report that treatment of Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing sst2 with the somatostatin analogue, RC-160, led to G1 cell cycle arrest and inhibition of insulin-induced S-phase entry through induction of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1). Consequently, a decrease of p27(Kip1)-cdk2 association, an inhibition of insulin-induced cyclin E-cdk2 kinase activity, and an accumulation of hypophosphorylated retinoblastoma gene product (Rb) were observed. However, RC-160 had no effect on the p21(Waf1/Cip1). When sst2 was coexpressed with a catalytically inactive mutant SHP-1 in Chinese hamster ovary cells, mutant SHP-1 induced entry into cell cycle and down-regulation of p27(Kip1) and prevented modulation by insulin and RC-160 of p27(Kip1) expression, p27(Kip1)-cdk2 association, cyclin E-cdk2 kinase activity, and the phosphorylation state of Rb. In mouse pancreatic acini, RC-160 reverted down-regulation of p27(Kip1) induced by a mitogen, and this effect did not occur in acini from viable motheaten (mev/mev) mice expressing a mutant SHP-1 with markedly deficient enzymes. These findings provide the first evidence that sst2 induces cell cycle arrest through the up-regulation of p27(Kip1) and demonstrate that SHP-1 is required for maintaining high inhibitory levels of p27(Kip1) and is a critical target of the insulin, and somatostatin signaling cascade, leading to the modulation of p27(Kip1). 相似文献

When suspended in methylcellulose, primary mouse keratinocytes cease proliferation and differentiate. Suspension also reduces the activity of the cyclin-dependent kinase cdk2, an important cell cycle regulatory enzyme. To determine how suspension modulates these events, we examined its effects on wild-type keratinocytes and keratinocytes nullizygous for the cdk2 inhibitor p21(Cip1). After suspension of cycling cells, amounts of cyclin A (a cdk2 partner), cyclin A mRNA, and cyclin A-associated activity decreased much more rapidly in the presence than in the absence of p21(Cip1). Neither suspension nor p21(Cip1) status affected the stability of cyclin A mRNA. Loss of p21(Cip1) reduced the capacity of suspended cells to growth arrest, differentiate, and accumulate p27(Kip1) (a second cdk2 inhibitor) and affected the composition of E2F DNA binding complexes. Cyclin A-cdk2 complexes in suspended p21(+/+) cells contained p21(Cip1) or p27(Kip1), whereas most of the cyclin A-cdk2 complexes in p21(-/-) cells lacked p27(Kip1). Ectopic expression of p21(Cip1) allowed p21(-/-) keratinocytes to efficiently down-regulate cyclin A and differentiate when placed in suspension. These findings show that p21(Cip1) mediates the effects of suspension on numerous processes in primary keratinocytes including cdk2 activity, cyclin A expression, cell cycle progression, and differentiation. 相似文献

p21(Cip1), first described as an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinases, has recently been shown to have a function in the formation of cyclin D-Cdk4 complexes and in their nuclear translocation. The dual behavior of p21(Cip1) may be due to its association with other proteins. Different evidence presented here indicate an in vitro and in vivo interaction of p21(Cip1) with calmodulin: 1) purified p21(Cip1) is able to bind to calmodulin-Sepharose in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner, and this binding is inhibited by the calmodulin-binding domain of calmodulin-dependent kinase II; 2) both molecules coimmunoprecipitate when extracted from cellular lysates; and 3) colocalization of calmodulin and p21(Cip1) can be detected in vivo by electron microscopy immunogold analysis. The carboxyl-terminal domain of p21(Cip1) is responsible for the calmodulin interaction, since p21(145-164) peptide is also able to bind calmodulin and to compete with full-length p21(Cip1) for the calmodulin binding. Because treatment of cells with anti-calmodulin drugs decreases the nuclear accumulation of p21(Cip1), we hypothesize that calmodulin interaction with p21(Cip1) is important for p21(Cip1), and in consequence for cyclin D-Cdk4, translocation into the cell nucleus. 相似文献

Little is known about cell-cycle checkpoint activation by oxidative stress in mammalian cells. The effects of hyperoxia on cell-cycle progression were investigated in asynchronous human T47D-H3 cells, which contain mutated p53 and fail to arrest at G1/S in response to DNA damage. Hyperoxic exposure (95% O(2), 40-64 h) induced an S-phase arrest associated with acute inhibition of Cdk2 activity and DNA synthesis. In contrast, exit from G2/M was not inhibited in these cells. After 40 h of hyperoxia, these effects were partially reversible during recovery under normoxic conditions. The inhibition of Cdk2 activity was not due to degradation of Cdk2, cyclin E or A, nor impairment of Cdk2 complex formation with cyclin A or E and p21(Cip1). The loss of Cdk2 activity occurred in the absence of induction and recruitment of cdk inhibitor p21(Cip1) or p27(Kip1) in cyclin A/Cdk2 or cyclin E/Cdk2 complexes. In contrast, Cdk2 inhibition was associated with increased Cdk2-Tyr15 phosphorylation, increased E2F-1 recruitment, and decreased PCNA contents in Cdk2 complexes. The latter results indicate a p21(Cip1)/p27(Kip1)-independent mechanism of S-phase checkpoint activation in the hyperoxic T47D cell model investigated. 相似文献

Do p27Kip1 and p21Cip1 function as activators or inhibitors of D cyclin-cdk4 activity? Attempts to answer this question, and thus to understand how cdk4--a key cell cycle regulator--becomes active, have produced conflicting data. In this perspective, we summarize the results of studies addressing the effects of p27Kip1 and p21Cip1 on the assembly and activation of D cyclin-cdk4 complexes. Emphasis is placed on our experimental findings that support a model of cell cycle control in which p27Kip1 and p21Cip1 stabilize D cyclin-cdk4 complexes but inhibit D cyclin-cdk4 activity. 相似文献

The cellular response to oncogenic Ras depends upon the presence or absence of cooperating mutations. In the absence of immortalizing oncogenes or genetic lesions, activation of the Ras/Raf pathway results in a p21(Cip1)-dependent cellular arrest. The human papillomavirus oncoprotein E7 transforms primary cells in cooperation with Ras and abolishes p21(Cip1)-mediated growth arrest in the presence of various antimitogenic signals. Here we have utilized a conditional Raf molecule to investigate the effects of E7 on p21(Cip1) function in the context of Raf-induced cellular arrest. E7 bypassed Raf-induced arrest and alleviated inhibition of cyclin E-CDK2 without suppressing Raf-specific synthesis of p21(Cip1) or derepressing p21(Cip1)-associated CDK2 complexes. Activation of Raf led to nuclear accumulation of p21(Cip1), and we provide evidence that this effect is mediated by inhibition of Akt, a regulator of p21(Cip1) localization. Loss of Akt activity appears to be an important event in the cellular arrest associated with Raf-induction, since maintenance of Akt activity was necessary and sufficient to bypass Raf-induced arrest. In agreement, expression of E7 sustained Akt activity and reduced nuclear accumulation of p21(Cip1), resulting in decreased association between p21(Cip1) and cyclin E-CDK2. Taken together, these data suggest that E7 inhibits p21(Cip1) function in the context of Raf signaling by altering Raf-Akt antagonism and preventing the proper subcellular localization of p21(Cip1). We propose that E7 elicits a proliferative response to Raf signaling by targeting p21(Cip1) function via a novel mechanism. 相似文献

Protein kinase Cdelta inhibition of S-phase transition in capillary endothelial cells involves the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1). 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Distinct protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms differentially regulate cellular proliferation in rat microvascular endothelial cells (EC). Overexpression of PKCalpha has little effect on proliferation, whereas PKCdelta slows endothelial cell proliferation and induces S-phase arrest. Analyses were performed on EC overexpressing PKCalpha (PKCalphaEC) or PKCdelta (PKCdeltaEC) to determine the role of specific cell cycle regulatory proteins in the PKCdelta-induced cell cycle arrest. Serum-induced stimulation of cyclins D1, E, and A-associated kinase activity was delayed by 12 h in the PKCdeltaEC line in association with S-phase arrest. However, the protein levels for cyclins D1, E, and A were similar. Nuclear accumulation of cyclin D1 protein in response to serum was also delayed in PKCdeltaEC. In the PKCdeltaEC line, serum induced p27(Kip1) but not p16(Ink4a) or p21(Cip1). Serum did not affect p27(Kip1) levels in the control vascular endothelial cell line. Immunoprecipitation-Western blotting analysis of p27(Kip1) showed serum stimulation of the vascular endothelial cell line resulted in increased amounts of cyclin D1 bound to p27(Kip1). In the PKCdeltaEC line, serum did not increase the amount of cyclin D1 bound to p27(Kip1). Transfection of full-length p27(Kip1) antisense into the PCKdeltaEC line reversed the S-phase arrest and resulted in normal cell cycle progression, suggesting a critical role for p27(Kip1) in the PKCdelta-mediated S-phase arrest. 相似文献

DNA tumour viruses have evolved a number of mechanisms by which they deregulate normal cellular growth control. We have recently described the properties of a cyclin encoded by human herpesvirus 8 (also known as Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus) which is able to resist the actions of p16(Ink4a), p21(Cip1) and p27(Kip1) cdk inhibitors. Here we investigate the mechanism involved in the subversion of a G1 blockade imposed by overexpression of p27(Kip1). We demonstrate that binding of K cyclin to cdk6 expands the substrate repertoire of this cdk to include a number of substrates phosphorylated by cyclin-cdk2 complexes but not cyclin D1-cdk6. Included amongst these substrates is p27(Kip1) which is phosphorylated on Thr187. Expression of K cyclin in mammalian cells leads to p27(Kip1) downregulation, this being consistent with previous studies indicating that phosphorylation of p27(Kip1) on Thr187 triggers its downregulation. K cyclin expression is not able to prevent a G1 arrest imposed by p27(Kip1) in which Thr187 is mutated to non-phosphorylatable Ala. These results imply that K cyclin is able to bypass a p27(Kip1)-imposed G1 arrest by facilitating phosphorylation and downregulation of p27(Kip1) to enable activation of endogenous cyclin-cdk2 complexes. The extension of the substrate repertoire of cdk6 by K cyclin is likely to contribute to the deregulation of cellular growth by this herpesvirus-encoded cyclin. 相似文献

Estrogens down-regulate p27Kip1 in breast cancer cells through Skp2 and through nuclear export mediated by the ERK pathway 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor p27Kip1 plays a key role in growth and development of the mammary epithelium and in breast cancer. p27Kip1 levels are regulated through ubiquitin/proteasome-mediated proteolysis, promoted by CDK2 and the F box protein Skp2 at the G1/S transition, and independent of Skp2 in mid-G1. We investigated the respective roles of Skp2 and subcellular localization of p27Kip1 in down-regulation of p27Kip1 induced in MCF-7 cells by estrogens. 17beta-Estradiol treatment increased Skp2 expression in MCF-7 cells; however, this increase was prevented by G1 blockade mediated by p16Ink4a or the CDK inhibitor roscovitine, whereas down-regulation of p27Kip1 was maintained. Exogenous Skp2 prevented growth arrest of MCF-7 cells by antiestrogen, coinciding with decreased p27Kip1 expression. Under conditions of G1 blockade, p27Kip1 was stabilized by inhibition of CRM1-dependent nuclear export with leptomycin B or by mutation of p27Kip1 (Ser10 --> Ala; S10A) interfering with CRM1/p27Kip1 interaction. Antisense Skp2 oligonucleotides and a dominant-interfering Cul-1(1-452) mutant prevented down-regulation of p27Kip1S10A, whereas Skp2 overexpression elicited its destruction in mitogen-deprived cells. Active mediators of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway including Raf-1caax induced cytoplasmic localization of p27Kip1 in antiestrogen-treated cells and prevented accumulation of p27Kip1 in these cells independent of Skp2 expression and coinciding with ERK activation. Genetic or chemical blockade of the ERK pathway prevented down-regulation and cytoplasmic localization of p27Kip1 in response to estrogen. Our studies indicate that estrogens elicit down-regulation of p27Kip1 in MCF-7 cells through Skp2-dependent and -independent mechanisms that depend upon subcellular localization of p27Kip1 and require the participation of mediators of the Ras/Raf-1/ERK signaling pathway. 相似文献
