Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important for intracellular signaling mechanisms regulating many cellular processes. Manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) may regulate cell growth by changing the level of intracellular ROS. In our study, we investigated the effect of ROS on 7721 human hepatoma cell proliferation. Treatment with H2O2 (1-10 microM) or transfection with antisense MnSOD cDNA constructs significantly increased the cell proliferation. Recently, the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and the protein kinase B (PKB) were proposed to be involved in cell growth. Accordingly, we assessed the ability of ROS to activate MAPK and PKB. PKB and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) were both rapidly and transiently activated by 10 microM H2O2, but the activities of p38 MAPK and JNK were not changed. ROS-induced PKB activation was abrogated by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K) inhibitor LY294002, suggesting that PI3-K is an upstream mediator of PKB activation in 7721 cells. Transfection with sense PKB cDNA promoted c-fos and c-jun expression in 7721 cells, suggesting that ROS may regulate c-fos and c-jun expression via the PKB pathway. Furthermore we found that exogenous H2O2 could stimulate the proliferation of PKB-AS7721 cells transfected with antisense PKB cDNA, which was partly dependent on JNK activation, suggesting that H2O2 stimulated hepatoma cell proliferation via cross-talk between the PI3-K/PKB and the JNK signaling pathways. However, insulin could stimulate 7721 cell proliferation, which is independent of cross-talk between PI3-K/PKB and JNK pathways. In addition, H2O2 did not induce the cross-talk between the PI3-K/PKB and the JNK pathways in normal liver cells. Taken together, we found that ROS regulate hepatoma cell growth via specific signaling pathways (cross-talk between PI3-K/PKB and JNK pathway) which may provide a novel clue to elucidate the mechanism of hepatoma carcinogenesis. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether Helicobacter pylori activates mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases in gastric epithelial cells. Infection of AGS cells with an H. pylori cag+ strain rapidly (5 min) induced a dose-dependent activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK), p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) MAP kinases, as determined by Western blot analysis and in vitro kinase assay. Compared with cag+ strains, cag- clinical isolates were less potent in inducing MAP kinase, particularly JNK and p38, activation. Isogenic inactivation of the picB region of the cag pathogenicity island resulted in a similar loss of JNK and p38 MAP kinase activation. The specific MAP kinase inhibitors, PD98059 (25 microM; MAP kinase kinase (MEK-1) inhibitor) and SB203580 (10 microM; p38 inhibitor), reduced H. pylori-induced IL-8 production in AGS cells by 78 and 82%, respectively (p < 0.01 for each). Both inhibitors together completely blocked IL-8 production (p < 0.001). However, the MAP kinase inhibitors did not prevent H. pylori-induced IkappaBalpha degradation or NF-kappaB activation. Thus, H. pylori rapidly activates ERK, p38, and JNK MAP kinases in gastric epithelial cells; cag+ isolates are more potent than cag- strains in inducing MAP kinase phosphorylation and gene products of the cag pathogenicity island are required for maximal MAP kinase activation. p38 and MEK-1 activity are required for H. pylori-induced IL-8 production, but do not appear to be essential for H. pylori-induced NF-kappaB activation. Since MAP kinases regulate cell proliferation, differentiation, programmed death, stress, and inflammatory responses, activation of gastric epithelial cell MAP kinases by H. pylori cag+ strains may be instrumental in inducing gastroduodenal inflammation, ulceration, and neoplasia. 相似文献

Lipid peroxidation byproducts, such as 4-hydroxynonenal (HNE) and 4-oxo-2-nonenal (ONE), induce cell death in a wide variety of cell types, partly by modulating intracellular signaling pathways. However, the specific mechanisms involved, particularly for ONE, are unclear while c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) has been shown to be essential in HNE-mediated cytotoxicity. In this study, we examined the role of mitogen-activated protein kinases signaling pathways in ONE-induced cytotoxicity in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells and found that ONE strongly induces the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and JNK, but not p38 MAPK. Interestingly, a transient exposure of the cells to ONE resulted in cell death, which contrasts with HNE-mediated toxicity. Importantly, blocking the ERK pathway, but not the JNK pathway, protected cells against ONE-induced cytotoxicity indicating a striking difference between the ONE- and HNE-mediated cytotoxicity mechanisms. Furthermore, inhibition of ERK reduced ONE-induced phosphorylation of p53, a key modulator of the cellular stress response, and the proteolytic cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), a hallmark of apoptosis. Overall, these data strongly suggest that ERK plays an essential role in ONE-mediated cytotoxicity and that ERK is an upstream component of p53-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献

We showed previously that alcohol exposure during in vivo brain development induced astroglial damage and caused cell death. Because ceramide modulates a number of biochemical and cellular responses to stress, including apoptosis, we now investigate whether ethanol-induced cell death in astrocytes is mediated by ceramide signalling pathways triggering apoptosis. Here we show that both ethanol and ceramide are able to induce apoptotic death in cultured astrocytes, in a dose-dependent manner, and that C2-ceramide addition potentiates the apoptotic effects of ethanol. Cell death induced by ethanol is associated with stimulation of neutral and acidic sphingomyelinase (SMase) and ceramide generation, as well as with activation of stress-related kinases, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathways. We also provide evidence for the participation of JNK and p38 in ethanol-induced cell death, because pharmacological inhibitors of these kinases largely prevent the apoptosis induced by ethanol or by ethanol and C2-ceramide. Furthermore, we show that ethanol-induced ERK activation triggers the stimulation of cyclo-oxygenase-2 (COX-2) and the release of prostaglandin E2, and that blockade of the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK)/ERK pathway by PD98059 abolishes the up-regulation of COX-2 induced by ethanol plus ceramide, and decreases the ethanol-induced apoptosis. These results strongly suggest that ethanol is able to stimulate the SMase-ceramide pathway, leading to the activation of signalling pathways implicated in cell death. These findings provide an insight into the mechanisms involved in ethanol-induced astroglial cell death during brain development. 相似文献

Numerous studies have recently focused on the anticarcinogenic, antimutagenic, or chemopreventive activities of the main pungent
component of red pepper, capsaicin (N-vanillyl-8-methyl-1-nonenamide). We have previously shown that, in the androgen-independent prostate cancer PC-3 cells, capsaicin
inhibits cell growth and induces apoptosis through reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation [Apoptosis 11 (2006) 89–99]. In
the present study, we investigated the signaling pathways involved in the antiproliferative effect of capsaicin. Here, we
report that capsaicin apoptotic effect was mediated by ceramide generation which occurred by sphingomyelin hydrolysis. Using
siRNA, we demonstrated that N-SMase expression is required for the effect of capsaicin on prostate cell viability. We then
investigated the role of MAP kinase cascades, extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase
(JNK), and p38 MAPK, in the antiproliferative effect of capsaicin, and we confirmed that capsaicin could activate ERK and
JNK but not p38 MAPK. Pharmacological inhibition of JNK kinase, as well as inhibition of ROS by the reducing agent N-acetylcysteine, prevented ceramide accumulation and capsaicin-induced cell death. However, inhibition of ceramide accumulation
by the SMase inhibitor D609 did not modify JNK activation. These data reveal JNK as an upstream regulator of ceramide production.
Capsaicin-promoted activation of ERK was prevented with all the inhibitors tested. We conclude that capsaicin induces apoptosis
in PC-3 cells via ROS generation, JNK activation, ceramide accumulation, and second, ERK activation. 相似文献

Oxidative stress plays a critical role in cardiac injuries during ischemia/reperfusion. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) promotes cell survival in a number of cell types, but the effect of IGF-1 on the oxidative stress has not been elucidated in cardiac muscle cells. Therefore, we examined the role of IGF-1 signaling pathway in cell survival against H2O2-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cardiac myoblasts. H2O2 treatment induced apoptosis in H9c2 cells, and pretreatment of cells with IGF-1 suppressed apoptotic cell death. The antiapoptotic effect of IGF-1 was blocked by LY294002 (an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase) and by PD98059 (an inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)). The protective effect of IGF-1 was also blocked by rapamycin (an inhibitor of p70 S6 kinase). Furthermore, H9c2 cells stably transfected with constitutively active PI 3-kinase (H9c2-p110*) and Akt (H9c2-Gag-Akt) constructs were more resistant to H2O2 cytotoxicity than control cells. Although H2O2 activates both p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), IGF-1 inhibited only JNK activation. Activated PI 3-kinase (H9c2-p110*) and pretreatment of cells with IGF-1 down-regulated Bax protein levels compared to control cells. Taken together, our results suggest that IGF-1 transmits a survival signal against oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in H9c2 cells via PI 3-kinase and ERK-dependent pathways and the protective effect of IGF-1 is associated with the inhibition of JNK activation and Bax expression. 相似文献

Gastric cancer is a common malignancy in many countries of the world, especially in Asia. Prevention is likely to be the most effective means of not only reducing the incidence but also mortality from this disease. The term 'chemoprevention' has been referred to the prevention of cancer using specific agents to suppress or reverse the carcinogenic process. In recent years, attention has been focused on the anticancer properties of edible plants, an important role in the prevention of disease. Hibiscus sabdariffa Linne (Malvaceae), an attractive plant believed to be native to Africa, is cultivated in the Sudan and Eastern Taiwan. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the plant, H. sabdariffa extracts (HSE), affects the apoptosis of AGS cells. Using a set of apoptotic detection assays, they showed that HSE induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis of AGS cells in a concentration-dependent manner but is ineffective in Chang liver cells. The result also revealed increased phosphorylation in p38, JNK and c-Jun, cytochrome c release, and expression of Fas, FasL, Bax, and t-Bid in the HSE-treated AGS cells. We further used MAPK inhibitors to evaluate their effect on the HSE-induced AGS death. The data showed that SB203580 (p38 inhibitor), JNK inhibitor I and II or transfection with the mutant JNK expression vector had strong potential in inhibiting AGS cells apoptosis and related proteins expression. Finally, we suggested that HSE mediated AGS apoptosis via the JNK/p38 signaling cascade. According to these results, HSE could be developed as a chemopreventive agent. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that butyric acid induces cytotoxicity and apoptosis of murine thymocytes, splenic T cells, and human Jurkat T cells. Therefore, to determine the apoptotic signaling pathway induced by butyric acid, we investigated the contribution of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondria, ceramide, and mitogen-activated protein kinases in butyric acid-induced human Jurkat cell apoptosis. After exposure of cells to butyric acid, a pronounced accumulation of ROS was seen. Pretreatment of cells with the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine or 3-aminobenzamide attenuated butyric acid-induced apoptosis through a reduction of ROS generation. Cytochrome c, apoptosis-inducing factor, and second mitochondria-derived activator of caspases protein release from mitochondria into the cytosol were detected shortly after butyric acid treatment. Exposure of cells to butyric acid resulted in an increase in cellular ceramide in a time-dependent fashion. In addition, butyric acid-induced apoptosis was inhibited by DL-threo-dihidrosphingosine, a potent inhibitor of sphingosine kinase. Using anti-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), anti-c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and anti-p38 phosphospecific Abs, we showed a decrease in ERK, but not in JNK and p38 phosphorylation after treatment of cells with butyric acid. Pretreatment of cells with the JNK inhibitor SP600125 attenuated the effect of butyric acid on apoptosis, whereas no effect was seen with the p38 inhibitor SB202190 or the ERK inhibitor PD98059. Taken together, our results indicate that butyric acid-induced T cell apoptosis is mediated by ceramide production, ROS synthesis in mitochondria, and JNK activation in the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. Finally, these results were further substantiated by the expression profile of butyric acid-treated Jurkat cells obtained by means of cDNA array. 相似文献

Differential regulation of platelet-derived growth factor stimulated migration and proliferation in osteoblastic cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Osteoblastic migration and proliferation in response to growth factors are essential for skeletal development, bone remodeling, and fracture repair, as well as pathologic processes, such as metastasis. We studied migration in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF, 10 ng/ml) in a wounding model. PDGF stimulated a twofold increase in migration of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells and murine calvarial osteoblasts over 24-48 h. PDGF also stimulated a tenfold increase in 3H-thymidine (3H-TdR) incorporation in MC3T3-E1 cells. Migration and DNA replication, as measured by BrdU incorporation, could be stimulated in the same cell. Blocking DNA replication with aphidicolin did not reduce the distance migrated. To examine the role of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases in migration and proliferation, we used specific inhibitors of p38 MAP kinase, extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). For these signaling studies, proliferation was measured by carboxyfluorescein diacetate succinimidyl ester (CFSE) using flow cytometry. Inhibition of the p38 MAP kinase pathway by SB203580 and SB202190 blocked PDGF-stimulated migration but had no effect on proliferation. Inhibition of the ERK pathway by PD98059 and U0126 inhibited proliferation but did not inhibit migration. Inhibition of JNK activity by SP600125 inhibited both migration and proliferation. Hence, the stimulation of migration and proliferation by PDGF occurred by both overlapping and independent pathways. The JNK pathway was involved in both migration and proliferation, whereas the p38 pathway was predominantly involved in migration and the ERK pathway predominantly involved in proliferation. 相似文献

We have studied the roles of c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) cascade in both the cisplatin-resistant Caov-3 and the cisplatin-sensitive A2780 human ovarian cancer cell lines. Treatment of both cells with cisplatin but not transplatin isomer activates JNK and ERK. Activation of JNK by cisplatin occurred at 30 min, reached a plateau at 3 h, and declined thereafter, whereas activation of ERK by cisplatin showed a biphasic pattern, indicating the different time frame. Activation of JNK by cisplatin was maximal at 1000 microM, whereas activation of ERK was maximal at 100 microM and was less at higher concentrations, indicating the different dose dependence. Cisplatin-induced JNK activation was neither extracellular and intracellular Ca(2+)- nor protein kinase C-dependent, whereas cisplatin-induced ERK activation was extracellular and intracellular Ca(2+)- dependent and protein kinase C-dependent. A mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase inhibitor, PD98059, had no effect on the cisplatin-induced JNK activity, suggesting an absence of cross-talk between the ERK and JNK cascades. We further examined the effect of each cascade on the viability following cisplatin treatment. Either exogenous expression of dominant negative c-Jun or the treatment by PD98059 induced sensitivity to cisplatin in both cells. Our findings suggest that cisplatin-induced DNA damage differentially activates JNK and ERK cascades and that inhibition of either of these cascades sensitizes ovarian cancer cells to cisplatin. 相似文献

We recently demonstrated the activation of extracellular signal- regulated protein kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1 and ERK2) by IGF-1, FGF-2, and PDGF-BB in normal human osteoblastic (HOB) cells as well as in rat and mouse osteoblastic cells. In this report, we have examined whether c-Jun NH2-Terminal Kinase (JNK) pathway is activated by growth factors and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in normal HOB and rat UMR-106 cells using immune-complex kinase assay and anti-active JNK antibody, which recognizes activated forms of both JNK1 and JNK2. Results have demonstrated the presence of JNK1 and JNK2 proteins in normal HOB and UMR-106 cells. Both JNK1 and JNK2 were activated by IL-1β. IL-1β preferentially activated JNK pathway in a dose- and time-dependent manner and had little effect on ERK pathway. On the other hand, FGF-2 did not activate JNK but most strongly activated ERK pathway. The activation of JNK was maximal at 20 min whereas maximal activation of ERK1 and ERK2 was observed within 10 min. Results have clearly demonstrated that IL-1β preferentially activates JNK pathway whereas FGF-2 activates ERK pathway in normal human and rat UMR-106 osteoblastic cells. J. Cell.

Members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, including Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK), play an important role in the proliferation of erythroid cells in response to erythropoietin (Epo). Erythroid cells infected with the Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) proliferate in the absence of Epo and show constitutive activation of Epo signal transduction pathways. We previously demonstrated that the ERK pathway was constitutively activated in Friend SFFV-infected erythroid cells, and in this study JNK is also shown to be constitutively activated. Pharmacological inhibitors of both the ERK and JNK pathways stopped the proliferation of primary erythroleukemic cells from Friend SFFV-infected mice, with little induction of apoptosis, and furthermore blocked their ability to form Epo-independent colonies. However, only the JNK inhibitor blocked the proliferation of erythroleukemia cell lines derived from these mice. The JNK inhibitor caused significant apoptosis in these cell lines as well as an increase in the fraction of cells in G(2)/M and undergoing endoreduplication. In contrast, the growth of erythroleukemia cell lines derived from Friend murine leukemia virus (MuLV)-infected mice was inhibited by both the MEK and JNK inhibitors. JNK is important for AP1 activity, and we found that JNK inhibitor treatment reduced AP1 DNA-binding activity in primary erythroleukemic splenocytes from Friend SFFV-infected mice and in erythroleukemia cell lines from Friend MuLV-infected mice but did not alter AP1 DNA binding in erythroleukemia cell lines from Friend SFFV-infected mice. These data suggest that JNK plays an important role in cell proliferation and/or the survival of erythroleukemia cells. 相似文献

Mast cell chymase is known to induce eosinophil migration in vivo and in vitro. In the present study, we investigated possible involvement of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases; extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38, in the chymase-induced eosinophil migration. Human chymase induced a rapid phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 in human eosinophilic leukemia EoL-1 cells, while no phosphorylation was detected in JNK. The chymase-induced phosphorylation of ERK and p38 was inhibited by pertussis toxin. Similar results were obtained in the experiments using mouse chymase and eosinophils. U0126 (the inhibitor for MAP/ERK kinase) suppressed chymase-induced migration of EoL-1 cells and mouse eosinophils. However, SB203580 (p38 inhibitor) and SP600125 (JNK inhibitor) showed little effect on the migration. It is suggested therefore that chymase activates ERK and p38 probably through G-protein-coupled receptor, and that ERK but not p38 cascade may have a crucial role in chymase-induced migration of eosinophils. 相似文献

AbstractA previous study indicated that reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) played pivotal roles in mediating cytotoxicity of evodiamine in human cervix carcinoma HeLa cells. This study suggested that G2/M cell cycle arrest was triggered by ROS/NO productions with regulations of p53, p21, cell division cycle 25C (Cdc25C), Cdc2 and cyclin B1, which were able to be prevented by protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity inhibitor genistein or JNK inhibitor SP600125. The decreased JNK phosphorylation by addition of Ras or Raf inhibitor, as well as the increased cell viability by addition of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R), Ras, Raf or c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor, further demonstrated that the Ras-Raf-JNK pathway was responsible for this PTK-mediated signalling. These observations provide a distinct look at PTK pathway for its suppressive effect on G2/M transition by inductions of ROS/NO generations. 相似文献

VEGF prevents apoptosis of human microvascular endothelial cells via opposing effects on MAPK/ERK and SAPK/JNK signaling 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), an endothelial cell-specific mitogen, promotes endothelial cell survival and angiogenesis. We recently showed that VEGF can support the growth of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMEC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells in serum-free medium. Reasoning that VEGF might be modulating apoptotic signal transduction pathways, we examined mechanisms involved in the anti-apoptotic effect of VEGF on starvation- and ceramide-induced apoptosis in HDMEC. We observed that VEGF ameliorated the time-dependent increase in apoptosis, as demonstrated by morphologic observations, TUNEL assay, and DNA fragmentation. On the other hand, basic fibroblast growth factor only partially prevented apoptosis in serum-starved HDMEC; platelet-derived growth factor-BB was completely ineffective. VEGF activated the phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK)1 (p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase; MAPK) and ERK2 (p42 MAPK) in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Both the VEGF-induced activation and its anti-apoptotic effect were prevented by the specific MAPK/ERK inhibitor PD98059. The presence of VEGF also inhibited the sustained activation of stress-activated protein kinase/c-jun-NH2-kinase (SAPK/JNK) caused by serum starvation and ceramide treatment. Activation of the MAPK pathway together with inhibition of SAPK/JNK activity by VEGF appears to be a key event in determining whether an endothelial cell survives or undergoes programmed cell death. 相似文献

LTB4 stimulates growth of human pancreatic cancer cells via MAPK and PI-3 kinase pathways 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

We have previously shown the importance of LTB4 in human pancreatic cancer. LTB4 receptor antagonists block growth and induce apoptosis in pancreatic cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. Therefore, we investigated the effect of LTB4 on proliferation of human pancreatic cancer cells and the mechanisms involved. LTB4 stimulated DNA synthesis and proliferation of both PANC-1 and AsPC-1 human pancreatic cancer cells, as measured by thymidine incorporation and cell number. LTB4 stimulated rapid and transient activation of MEK and ERK1/2 kinases. The MEK inhibitors, PD98059 and U0126, blocked LTB4-stimulated ERK1/2 activation and cell proliferation. LTB4 also stimulated phosphorylation of p38 MAPK; however, the p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580, failed to block LTB4-stimulated growth. The activity of JNK/SAPK was not affected by LTB4 treatment. Phosphorylation of Akt was also induced by LTB4 and this effect was blocked by the PI-3 kinase inhibitor wortmannin, which also partially blocked LTB4-stimulated cell proliferation. In conclusion, LTB4 stimulates proliferation of human pancreatic cancer cells through MEK/ERK and PI-3 kinase/Akt pathways, while p38 MPAK and JNK/SAPK are not involved. 相似文献

Histone H3 phosphorylation is related closely to chromatin remodeling and chromosome condensation. H3 phosphorylation at serine 28 is coupled with mitotic chromosome condensation in diverse mammalian cell lines. However, the pathway that mediates phosphorylation of H3 at serine 28 is unknown. In the present study, ERK1, ERK2, or p38 kinase strongly phosphorylated H3 at serine 28 in vitro. JNK1 or JNK2 was able also to phosphorylate H3 at serine 28 in vitro but to a lesser degree. UVB irradiation markedly induced phosphorylation of H3 at serine 28 in JB6 Cl 41 cells. PD 98059, a MEK1 inhibitor, and SB 202190, a p38 kinase inhibitor, efficiently repressed UVB-induced H3 phosphorylation at serine 28. Expression of dominant negative mutant (DNM) ERK2 in JB6 Cl 41 cells totally blocked UVB-induced phosphorylation of H3 at serine 28. Additionally, DNM p38 kinase or DNM JNK1 partially blocked UVB-induced H3 phosphorylation at serine 28. Furthermore, UVB-induced H3 phosphorylation at serine 28 was inhibited in Jnk1(-/-) cells but not in Jnk2(-/-) cells. These results suggest that UVB-induced H3 phosphorylation at serine 28 may be mediated by mitogen-activated protein kinases. 相似文献

The Helicobacter pylori CagA protein is translocated into gastric epithelial cells through a type IV secretion system (TFSS), and published studies suggest CagA is critical for H. pylori-associated carcinogenesis. CagA is thought to be necessary and sufficient to induce the motogenic response observed in response to CagA+ strains, as CagA interacts with proteins involved in adhesion and motility. We report that H. pylori strain 60190 stimulated AGS cell motility through a CagA- and TFSS-dependent mechanism, because strains 60190DeltacagA or 60190DeltacagE (TFSS-defective) did not increase motility. The JNK pathway is critical for H. pylori-dependent cell motility, as inhibition using SP600125 (JNK1/2/3 inhibitor) or a JNK2/3-specific inhibitor blocked motility. JNK mediates H. pylori-induced cell motility by activating paxillin, because JNK inhibition blocked paxillinTyr-118 phosphorylation, and paxillin expression knockdown completely abrogated bacteria-induced motility. Furthermore, JNK and paxillinTyr-118 were activated by 60190DeltacagA but not 60190DeltacagE, demonstrating CagA-independent signaling critical for cell motility. A beta1 integrin-blocking antibody significantly inhibited JNK and paxillinTyr-118 phosphorylation and cell scattering, demonstrating that CagA-independent signaling required for cell motility occurs through beta1. The requirement of both Src and focal adhesion kinase for signaling and motility further suggests the importance of integrin signaling in H. pylori-induced cell motility. Finally, we show that JNK activation occurs independent of known upstream kinases and signaling molecules, including Nod1, Cdc42, Rac1, MKK4, and MKK7, which demonstrates novel signaling leading to JNK activation. We report for the first time that H. pylori mediates CagA-independent signaling that promotes cell motility through the beta1 integrin pathway. 相似文献
