Actin has been reported to enhance the superoxide-generating activity of neutrophil NADPH oxidase in a cell-free system and to interact with p47phox, a regulatory subunit of the oxidase. In the present study, we searched for an actin-binding site in p47phox by far-western blotting and blot-binding assays using truncated forms of p47phox. The amino-acid sequence 319-337 was identified as an actin-binding site, and a synthetic peptide of this sequence bound to actin. The sequence shows no homology to other known actin-binding motifs. It is located in the autoinhibitory region of p47phox and includes Ser-328, a phosphorylation site essential for unmasking. Although a phosphorylation-mimetic p47phox mutant bound to actin with a lower affinity than the wild type, the same mutant interacted with filamentous actin more efficiently than the wild type. A mutant peptide p47phox (319-337, Ser328Glu) bound to filamentous actin more tightly than to monomer actin. These results suggest that p47phox moves to cortical actin when it becomes unmasked in the cells.  相似文献

Activation of the O(2)(-) generating NADPH oxidase of phagocytes results from the assembly of the membrane-bound flavocytochrome b(558) with cytosolic proteins, p67(phox), p47(phox), and Rac. However, it has been recently reported that the arachidonic acid- and calcium-binding heterodimer S100A8/A9, abundant in neutrophil cytosol, influences the activation process. In a semi-recombinant system comprising neutrophil membranes, recombinant proteins, p67(phox), p47(phox), GTPgamma S-loaded Rac2, and arachidonic acid (AA), both the rate and the extent of the oxidase activation were increased by S100A8/A9, provided it was preloaded with AA. Binding of [(14)C]AA to S100A8/A9 was potentiated by recombinant cytosolic phox proteins and GTPgammaS, suggesting the formation of a complex, comprising oxidase activating proteins and S100A8/A9, with a greater affinity for AA. The rate constant of oxidase activation was not increased by AA-loaded S100A8/A9, whereas the maximal oxidase activity elicited was twice as high. AA-loaded S100A8/A9 increases oxidase activation probably by decreasing the deactivation rate.  相似文献

Activation of phagocytic NADPH oxidase requires association of its cytosolic subunits with the membrane-bound flavocytochrome. Extensive phosphorylation of the p47(phox) subunit of NADPH oxidase marks the initiation of this activation process. The p47(phox) subunit then translocates to the plasma membrane, bringing the p67(phox) subunit to cytochrome b558 to form the active NADPH oxidase complex. However, the detailed mechanism for targeting the p47(phox) subunit to the cell membrane during activation still remains unclear. Here, we show that the p47(phox) PX domain is responsible for translocating the p47(phox) subunit to the plasma membrane for subsequent activation of NADPH oxidase. We also demonstrate that translocation of the p47(phox) PX domain to the plasma membrane is not due to interactions with phospholipids but rather to association with the actin cytoskeleton. This association is mediated by direct interaction between the p47(phox) PX domain and moesin.  相似文献

Superoxide production by NADPH oxidase is essential for the bactericidal properties of phagocytes. Phosphorylation of p47(phox), one of the cytosolic components of NADPH oxidase, is a crucial step of the oxidase activation. Some evidences suggest that phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) is involved in p47(phox) phosphorylation, but it has not been fully understood how PI3K regulates it. The aim of this study was to examine the mechanism underlying the PI3K regulation of p47(phox) phosphorylation. Pharmacological inhibition of PI3K attenuated both fMLP-stimulated p47(phox) phosphorylation and NADPH oxidase activity in HL-60 cells differentiated to a neutrophil-like phenotype. Although fMLP elicited Akt activation in a PI3K-dependent manner, an Akt inhibitor had no effect on the oxidase activity triggered by fMLP. In vitro kinase assay revealed that Akt was unable to catalyze p47(phox) phosphorylation. Interestingly, the activation of cPKC and PKCdelta after fMLP stimulation was dependent on PI3K. Furthermore, PI3K inhibitors reduced the activation of phospholipase Cgamma2 without affecting tyrosine phosphorylation on it. These results suggest that PI3K regulates the phosphorylation of NADPH oxidase component p47(phox) by controlling diacylglycerol-dependent PKCs but not Akt.  相似文献

Superoxide (O(2)(-)) production by nonphagocytes, similar to phagocytes, is by activation of the NADPH oxidase multicomponent system. Although activation of neutrophil NADPH oxidase involves extensive serine phosphorylation of p47(phox), the role of tyrosine phosphorylation of p47(phox) in NADPH oxidase-dependent O(2)(-) production is unclear. We have shown recently that hyperoxia-induced NADPH oxidase activation in human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) is regulated by mitogen-activated protein kinase signal transduction. Here we provided evidence on the role of nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, Src, in hyperoxia-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p47(phox) and NADPH oxidase activation in HPAECs. Exposure of HPAECs to hyperoxia for 1 h resulted in increased O(2)(-) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of Src as determined by Western blotting with phospho-Src antibodies. Pretreatment of HPAECs with the Src kinase inhibitor PP2 (1 mum) or transient expression of a dominant-negative mutant of Src attenuated hyperoxia-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Src and ROS production. Furthermore, exposure of cells to hyperoxia enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of p47(phox) and its translocation to cell peripheries that were attenuated by PP2. In vitro, Src phosphorylated recombinant p47(phox) in a time-dependent manner. Src immunoprecipitates of cell lysates from control cells revealed the presence of immunodetectable p47(phox) and p67(phox), suggesting the association of oxidase components with Src under basal conditions. Moreover, exposure of HPAECs to hyperoxia for 1 h enhanced the association of p47(phox), but not p67(phox), with Src. These results indicated that Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of p47(phox) regulates hyperoxia-induced NADPH oxidase activation and ROS production in HPAECs.  相似文献

Glycated albumin, an early-glycation Amadori-modified protein, stimulates transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) expression and increases the production of the extracellular matrix proteins in mesangial cells, contributing to the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. Glycated albumin has been shown to increase NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide formation in mesangial cells. However, the mechanisms are not well understood. Therefore, in the present studies, we determined the mechanisms by which glycated albumin activates NADPH oxidase in primary rat mesangial cells and its contribution to glycated albumin-induced TGF-β expression and extracellular matrix protein production. Our data showed that glycated albumin treatment stimulated NADPH oxidase activity and increased the formation of superoxide formation in rat mesangial cells. Moreover, glycated albumin treatment stimulated the expression and phosphorylation of p47phox, one of the cytosolic regulatory subunits of the NADPH oxidase. However, the levels of other NADPH oxidase subunits including Nox1, Nox2, Nox4, p22phox, and p67phox were not altered by glycated albumin. Moreover, siRNA-mediated knockdown of p47phox inhibited glycated albumin-induced NADPH oxidase activity and superoxide formation. Glycated albumin-induced TGF-β expression and extracellular matrix production (fibronectin) was also inhibited by p47phox knock down. Taken together, these data suggest that up-regulation of p47phox is involved in glycated albumin-mediated activation of NADPH oxidase, leading to glycated albumin-induced expression of TGF-β and extracellular matrix proteins in mesangial cells and contributing to the development of diabetic nephropathy.  相似文献

Generation of superoxide anion by the multiprotein complex NADPH phagocyte oxidase is accompanied by extensive phosphorylation of its 47-kDa protein component, p47(phox), a major cytosolic component of this oxidase. Protein kinase C zeta (PKC zeta), an atypical PKC isoform expressed abundantly in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), translocates to the PMN plasma membrane upon stimulation by the chemoattractant fMLP. We investigated the role of PKC zeta in p47(phox) phosphorylation and in superoxide anion production by human PMN. In vitro incubation of recombinant p47(phox) with recombinant PKC zeta induced a time- and concentration-dependent phosphorylation of p47(phox) with an apparent K(m) value of 2 microM. Phosphopeptide mapping analysis of p47(phox) showed that PKC zeta phosphorylated fewer selective sites in comparison to "conventional" PKCs. Serine 303/304 and serine 315 were identified as targets of PKC zeta by site-directed mutagenesis. Stimulation of PMN by fMLP induced a rapid and sustained plasma membrane translocation of PKC zeta that correlated to that of p47(phox). A cell-permeant-specific peptide antagonist of PKC zeta inhibited both fMLP-induced phosphorylation of p47(phox) and its membrane translocation. The antagonist also inhibited the fMLP-induced production of oxidant (IC(50) of 10 microM), but not that induced by PMA. The inhibition of PKC zeta expression in HL-60 neutrophil-like cells using antisense oligonucleotides (5 and 10 microM) inhibited fMLP-promoted oxidant production (27 and 50%, respectively), but not that induced by PMA. In conclusion, p47(phox) is a substrate for PKC zeta and participates in the signaling cascade between fMLP receptors and NADPH oxidase activation.  相似文献

p40(phox) activated phagocyte NADPH oxidase without p47(phox) in a cell-free system consisting of p67(phox), Rac and cytochrome b(558) relipidated with phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate. The activation reached to 70% of that by p47(phox). Addition of p47(phox) slightly increased the activation, but not additively. p40(phox) improved the efficiency of p67(phox) in the activation. The C-terminus-truncated p67(phox), p40(phox)(D289A), p40(phox)(R58A), or p40(phox)(W207R) showed an impaired activation. A peptide corresponding to the p22(phox) Pro-rich region suppressed the activation, and far-western blotting revealed its interaction with p40(phox) SH3 domain. Thus, p40(phox) can substitute for p47(phox) in the activation, interacting with p22(phox) and p67(phox) through their specific regions.  相似文献

Activation of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase requires the regulatory proteins p47(phox) and p67(phox), each harboring two SH3 domains. p67(phox) interacts with p47(phox) via simultaneous binding of the p67(phox) C-terminal SH3 domain to both the proline-rich region (PRR) of amino acid residues 360-369 and its C-terminally flanking region of p47(phox); the role of the interaction in oxidase regulation has not been fully understood. Here we show that the p47(phox)-p67(phox) interaction is disrupted not only by deletion of the PRR but also by substitution for basic residues in the extra-PRR (K383E/K385E). The substitution impaired oxidase activation partially in vitro and much more profoundly in vivo, indicating the significance of the p47(phox) extra-PRR. Replacement of Ser-379 in the extra-PRR, a residue known to undergo phosphorylation in stimulated cells, by aspartate attenuates the interaction and thus results in a defective superoxide production, suggesting that phosphorylation of Ser-379 is involved in oxidase regulation.  相似文献

During activation of the phagocyte (Nox2-based) NADPH oxidase, the cytoplasmic Phox complex (p47(phox)-p67(phox)-p40(phox)) translocates and associates with the membrane-spanning flavocytochrome b(558). It is unclear where (in cytoplasm or on membranes), when (before or after assembly), and how p40(phox) acquires its PI(3)P-binding capabilities. We demonstrated that in addition to conformational changes induced by H(2)O(2) in the cytoplasm, p40(phox) acquires PI(3)P-binding through direct or indirect membrane targeting. We also found that p40(phox) is essential when p47(phox) is partially phosphorylated during FcγR-mediated oxidase activation; however, p40(phox) is less critical when p47(phox) is adequately phosphorylated, using phosphorylation-mimicking mutants in HEK293(Nox2/FcγRIIa) and RAW264.7(p40/p47KD) cells. Moreover, PI binding to p47(phox) is less important when the autoinhibitory PX-PB1 domain interaction in p40(phox) is disrupted or when p40(phox) is targeted to membranes. Furthermore, we suggest that high affinity PI(3)P binding of the p40(phox) PX domain is critical during its accumulation on phagosomes, even when masked by the PB1 domain in the resting state. Thus, in addition to mechanisms for directly acquiring PI(3)P binding in the cytoplasm by H(2)O(2), p40(phox) can acquire PI(3)P binding on targeted membranes in a p47(phox)-dependent manner and functions both as a "carrier" of the cytoplasmic Phox complex to phagosomes and an "adaptor" of oxidase assembly on phagosomes in cooperation with p47(phox), using positive feedback mechanisms.  相似文献

The inhibitory mechanism of tea catechins for allergy remains undefined. We studied the effect of catechins, mainly EGCG, on the activation of mast cell line canine cutaneous mastocytoma cells (CM-MC). Compound 48/80 induced the degranulation in CM-MC dose dependently, whereas its release of beta-hexosaminidase was inhibited by EGCG and O-methylated EGCG (EGCG-Me). Both catechins were found to inhibit intracellular ROS generation dose dependently together with DPI. Intracellular ROS generation in human polymorphonuclear leukocytes was also inhibited by EGCG. Neither L-NAME, ebeselen nor NAC inhibited ROS generation. From the Western blot analysis of the subunits components of NADPH oxidase, we detected cytosolic subunits; p47(phox), p67(phox), p40(phox), rac2 and membrane subunits; gp91(phox), p22(phox) in CM-MC. Cytosolic subunits were translocated from cytosol to membrane time dependently after stimulation with compound 48/80. EGCG and DPI inhibited cytosolic subunits from translocating into membrane. These data suggest that EGCG inhibits the activation of NADPH oxidase in CM-MC.  相似文献

The Phox homology (PX) domain is a functional module that targets membranes through specific interactions with phosphoinositides. The p47(phox) PX domain preferably binds phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PI(3,4)P(2)) and plays a pivotal role in the assembly of phagocyte NADPH oxidase. We describe the PI(3,4)P(2) binding mode of the p47(phox) PX domain as identified by a transferred cross-saturation experiment. The identified PI(3,4)P(2)-binding site, which includes the residues of helices α1 and α1' and the following loop up to the distorted left-handed PP(II) helix, is located at a unique position, as compared with the phosphoinositide-binding sites of all other PX domains characterized thus far. Mutational analyses corroborated the results of the transferred cross-saturation experiments. Moreover, experiments with intact cells demonstrated the importance of this unique binding site for the function of the NADPH oxidase. The low affinity and selectivity of the atypical phosphoinositide-binding site on the p47(phox) PX domain suggest that different types of phosphoinositides sequentially bind to the p47(phox) PX domain, allowing the regulation of the multiple events that characterize the assembly and activation of phagocyte NADPH oxidase.  相似文献

Compared with algal and cyanobacterial cytochrome c(6), cytochrome c(6A) from higher plants contains an additional loop of 12 amino acid residues. We have determined the first crystal structure of cytochrome c(6A) from Arabidopsis thaliana at 1.5 Angstrom resolution in order to help elucidate its function. The overall structure of cytochrome c(6A) follows the topology of class I c-type cytochromes in which the heme prosthetic group covalently binds to Cys16 and Cys19, and the iron has octahedral coordination with His20 and Met60 as the axial ligands. Two cysteine residues (Cys67 and Cys73) within the characteristic 12 amino acids loop form a disulfide bond, contributing to the structural stability of cytochrome c(6A). Our model provides a chemical basis for the known low redox potential of cytochrome c(6A) which makes it an unsuitable electron carrier between cytochrome b(6)f and PSI.  相似文献

NADPH oxidase has been considered a major source of reactive oxygen species in phagocytic and non-phagocytic cells. Apoptosis linked to oxidative stress has been implicated in pancreatitis. Recently, we demonstrated that NADPH oxidase subunits Nox1, p27phox, p47phox, and p67phox are constitutively expressed in pancreatic acinar cells, which are activated by cerulein, a cholecystokinin analogue. Cerulein induces an acute and edematous form of pancreatitis. We investigated whether inhibition of NADPH oxidase by diphenyleneiodonium suppresses the production of reactive oxygen species and apoptosis by determining viable cell numbers, DNA fragmentation, TUNEL staining, caspase-3 activity, and the expression of apoptosis-inducing factor in pancreatic acinar AR42J cells stimulated with cerulein. Inhibition on NADPH oxidase by diphenyleneiodonium was assessed by the alterations in NADPH oxidase activity and translocation of the cytosolic subunits p67phox and p47phox to the membrane. Intracellular Ca2+ level was monitored to investigate the relationship between NADPH oxidase and Ca2+ in cells stimulated with cerulein. As a result, cerulein induced the activation of NADPH, increased production of reactive oxygen species, and apoptotic indices determined by the expression of apoptosis-inducing factor, caspase-3 activation, TUNEL staining, DNA fragmentation, and cell viability. Treatment with DPI inhibited cerulein-induced activation of NADPH oxidase, the production of reactive oxygen species, and apoptosis, but not the increase of intracellular Ca2+ levels in pancreatic acinar cells. These results demonstrate that the cerulein-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ level may be an upstream event of NADPH oxidase activation. Diphenyleneiodonium, an NADPH oxidase inhibitor, inhibits the expression of apoptosis-inducing factor and caspase-3 activation, and thus apoptosis in pancreatic acinar cells.  相似文献

Like macrophages, microglia are functionally polarized into different phenotypic activation states, referred as classical and alternative. The balance of the two phenotypes may be critical to ensure proper brain homeostasis, and may be altered in brain pathological states, such as Alzheimer's disease. We investigated the role of NADPH oxidase in microglial activation state using p47(phox) and gp91(phox) -deficient mice as well as apocynin, a NADPH oxidase inhibitor during neuroinflammation induced by an intracerebroventricular injection of LPS or Aβ????. We showed that NADPH oxidase plays a critical role in the modulation of microglial phenotype and subsequent inflammatory response. We demonstrated that inhibition of NADPH oxidase or gene deletion of its functional p47(phox) subunit switched microglial activation from a classical to an alternative state in response to an inflammatory challenge. Moreover, we showed a shift in redox state towards an oxidized milieu and that subpopulations of microglia retain their detrimental phenotype in Alzheimer's disease brains. Microglia can change their activation phenotype depending on NADPH oxidase-dependent redox state of microenvironment. Inhibition of NADPH oxidase represents a promising neuroprotective approach to reduce oxidative stress and modulate microglial phenotype towards an alternative state.  相似文献

We sought to determine whether the extracellular compartment contributed to seizure-induced superoxide (O2*-) production and to determine the role of the NADPH oxidase complex as a source of this O2*- production. The translocation of NADPH oxidase subunits (p47phox, p67phox and rac1) was assessed by immunoblot analysis and NADPH-driven O2*- production was measured using 2-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-6-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-8-benzyl-3,7-dihydroimidazo [1,2-alpha] pyrazin-3-one-enhanced chemiluminescence. Kainate-induced status epilepticus resulted in a time-dependent translocation of NADPH oxidase subunits (p47phox, p67phox and rac-1) from hippocampal cytosol to membrane fractions. Hippocampal membrane fractions from kainate-injected rats showed increased NADPH-driven and diphenylene iodonium-sensitive O2*- production in comparison to vehicle-treated rats. The time-course of kainate-induced NADPH oxidase activation coincided with microglial activation in the rat hippocampus. Finally, kainate-induced neuronal damage and membrane oxygen consumption were inhibited in mice overexpressing extracellular superoxide dismutase. These results suggest that seizure activity activates the membrane NADPH oxidase complex resulting in increased formation of O2*-.  相似文献

Generation of superoxide by professional phagocytes is an important mechanism of host defense against bacterial infection. Several protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms have been found to phosphorylate p47(phox), resulting in its membrane translocation and activation of the NADPH oxidase. However, the mechanism by which specific PKC isoforms regulate NADPH oxidase activation remains to be elucidated. In this study, we report that PKCdelta phosphorylation in its activation loop is rapidly induced by fMLF and is essential for its ability to catalyze p47(phox) phosphorylation. Using transfected COS-7 cells expressing gp91(phox), p22(phox), p67(phox), and p47(phox) (COS-phox cells), we found that a functionally active PKCdelta is required for p47(phox) phosphorylation and reconstitution of NADPH oxidase. PKCbetaII cannot replace PKCdelta for this function. Characterization of PKCdelta/PKCbetaII chimeras has led to the identification of the catalytic domain of PKCdelta as a target of regulation by fMLF, which induces a biphasic (30 and 180 s) phosphorylation of Thr(505) in the activation loop of mouse PKCdelta. Mutation of Thr(505) to alanine abolishes the ability of PKCdelta to catalyze p47(phox) phosphorylation in vitro and to reconstitute NADPH oxidase in the transfected COS-phox cells. A correlation between fMLF-induced activation loop phosphorylation and superoxide production is also established in the differentiated PLB-985 human myelomonoblastic cells. We conclude that agonist-induced PKCdelta phosphorylation is a novel mechanism for NADPH oxidase activation. The ability to induce PKCdelta phosphorylation may distinguish a full agonist from a partial agonist for superoxide production.  相似文献

Synaptic plasticity is a phenomenon contributing to changes in the efficacy of neuronal transmission. These changes are widely believed to be a major cellular basis for learning and memory. Protein phosphorylation is a key biochemical process involved in synaptic plasticity that operates through a tight balance between the action of protein kinases and protein phosphatases (PPs). Although the majority of research in this field has concentrated primarily on protein kinases, the significant role of PPs is becoming increasingly apparent. This review examines one such phosphatase, PP1, and highlights recent advances in the understanding of its intervention in synaptic and structural plasticity and the mechanisms of learning and memory.  相似文献

To establish whether NADPH oxidase activation, responsible for previously demonstrated Trichinella spiralis-induced respiratory burst, results from assembling of membrane and cytosolic NADPH oxidase components and/or increased expression of the oxidase complex proteins, the superoxide anion production and expression of the regulatory p47(phox) subunit were measured in cultured alveolar macrophages obtained during T. spiralis infection of guinea pigs. The results demonstrate for the first time helminth parasite-infection-induced stimulation of NADPH oxidase p47(phox) subunit protein expression, with the effect being decreased by in vivo treatment with cyclosporin A, previously shown to inhibit T. spiralis infection-induced respiratory burst in guinea-pig alveolar macrophages. However, although the expression of the p47(phox) subunit protein remained induced during secondary infection, it was accompanied by superoxide anion production that was significantly suppressed in comparison with that observed during primary infection, suggesting suppressive action of T. spiralis on host's alveolar macrophage immune response, presumably connected with NADPH oxidase complex activity attenuation.  相似文献
