Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor, Met, play a crucial role in regulating adult skeletal myoblast proliferation and differentiation. Met signaling is mediated by phosphorylation of two carboxy-terminal tyrosines, which act as docking sites for a number of intracellular mediators. These include Grb2 and p85, which couple the receptor with the Ras and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways, respectively. In this study, we define the role of these effectors in response to HGF by utilizing Met mutants, designed to obtain preferential coupling of Met to either Grb2 or PI3K or both. We found that relative to the wild-type receptor, enhanced binding to Grb2 further increases the incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine and the expression of Twist, while decreasing that of p27(Kip1) and myogenin. Conversely, preferential coupling with PI3K induced cell-cycle withdrawal and differentiation. Whereas enhanced Grb2 binding increased the phosphorylation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (MAPK/ERK) and abrogated that of p38 MAPK, PI3K had the opposite effect. PD098059 reversed the inhibitory effects of Met on cell proliferation and differentiation, while wortmannin had only a very marginal effect. Taken together, these data suggest that coupling of Met with Grb2 is necessary for HGF-mediated inhibition of muscle differentiation. This inhibition occurs only when PI3K signaling downstream of Met is low. Imposing an efficient coupling of PI3K to Met would lead to upregulation of muscle regulatory factors and subsequent cell differentiation. 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

Eph receptors and their ligands (ephrins) play an important role in axonal guidance, topographic mapping, and angiogenesis. The signaling pathways mediating these activities are starting to emerge and are highly cell- and receptor-type specific. Here we demonstrate that activated EphB1 recruits the adaptor proteins Grb2 and p52Shc and promotes p52Shc and c-Src tyrosine phosphorylation as well as MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation. EphB1-mediated increase of cell migration was abrogated by the MEK inhibitor PD98059 and Src inhibitor PP2. In contrast, cell adhesion, which we previously showed to be c-jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) dependent, was unaffected by ERK1/2 and Src inhibition. Expression of dominant-negative c-Src significantly reduced EphB1-dependent ERK1/2 activation and chemotaxis. Site-directed mutagenesis experiments demonstrate that tyrosines 600 and 778 of EphB1 are required for its interaction with c-Src and p52Shc. Furthermore, phosphorylation of p52Shc by c-Src is essential for its recruitment to EphB1 signaling complexes through its phosphotyrosine binding domain. Together these findings highlight a new aspect of EphB1 signaling, whereby the concerted action of c-Src and p52Shc activates MAPK/ERK and regulates events involved in cell motility. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that the abundant herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) tegument protein VP11/12, encoded by gene UL46, stimulates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)/Akt signaling: it binds the Src family kinase (SFK) Lck, is tyrosine phosphorylated, recruits the p85 subunit of PI3-kinase, and is essential for the activation of Akt during HSV-1 infection. The C-terminal region of VP11/12 contains tyrosine-based motifs predicted to bind the SH2 domains of SFKs (YETV and YEEI), p85 (YTHM), and Grb2 (YENV) and the phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain of Shc (NPLY). We inactivated each of these motifs in the context of the intact viral genome and examined effects on binding and activation of Lck and recruitment of p85, Grb2, and Shc. Inactivating the p85, Grb2, or Shc motif reduced (p85) or eliminated (Grb2 and Shc) the interaction with the cognate signaling molecule without greatly affecting the other interactions or activation of Lck. Inactivating either SFK motif had only a minor effect on Lck binding and little or no effect on recruitment of p85, Grb2, or Shc. In contrast, inactivation of both SFK motifs severely reduced Lck binding and activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of VP11/12 and reduced (p85) or eliminated (Grb2 and Shc) binding of other signaling proteins. Overall, these data demonstrate the key redundant roles of the VP11/12 SFK-binding motifs in the recruitment and activation of SFKs and indicate that activated SFKs then lead (directly or indirectly) to phosphorylation of the additional motifs involved in recruiting p85, Grb2, and Shc. Thus, VP11/12 appears to mimic an activated growth factor receptor. 相似文献

The Y1250F/Y1251F mutant of the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) has tyrosines 1250 and 1251 mutated to phenylalanines and is deficient in IGF-I-mediated suppression of apoptosis in FL5.12 lymphocytic cells. To address the mechanism of loss of function in this mutant we investigated signaling responses in FL5.12 cells overexpressing either a wild-type (WT) or Y1250F/Y1251F (mutant) IGF-IR. Cells expressing the mutant receptor were deficient in IGF-I-induced phosphorylation of the JNK pathway and had decreased ERK and p38 phosphorylation. IGF-I induced phosphorylation of Akt was comparable in WT and mutant expressing cells. The decreased activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways was accompanied by greatly decreased Ras activation in response to IGF-I. Although phosphorylation of Gab2 was similar in WT and mutant cell lines, phosphorylation of Shc on Tyr(313) in response to IGF-I was decreased in cells expressing the mutant receptor, as was recruitment of Grb2 and Ship to Shc. However, phosphorylation of Shc on Tyr(239), the Src phosphorylation site, was normal. A role for JNK in the survival of FL5.12 cells was supported by the observation that the JNK inhibitor SP600125 suppressed IGF-I-mediated protection from apoptosis. Altogether these data demonstrate that phosphorylation of Shc, and assembly of the Shc complex necessary for activation of Ras and the MAPK pathways are deficient in cells expressing the Y1250F/Y1251F mutant IGF-IR. This would explain the loss of IGF-I-mediated survival in FL5.12 cells expressing this mutant and may also explain why this mutant IGF-IR is deficient in functions associated with cellular transformation and cell migration in fibroblasts and epithelial tumor cells. 相似文献

Signals downstream of growth factor receptors play an important role in mammary carcinogenesis. Recently, we demonstrated that the small GTPases ARF1 and ARF6 were shown to be activated downstream of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and act as a key regulator of growth, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. However, the mechanism via which the EGFR recruits and activates ARF1 and ARF6 to transmit signals has yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we identify adaptor proteins Grb2 and p66Shc as important regulators mediating ARF activation. We demonstrate that ARF1 can be found in complex with Grb2 and p66Shc upon EGF stimulation of the basal-like breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cell line. However, we report that these two adaptors regulate ARF1 activation differently, with Grb2 promoting ARF1 activation and p66Shc blocking this response. Furthermore, we show that Grb2 is essential for the recruitment of ARF1 to the EGFR, whereas p66Shc hindered ARF1 receptor recruitment. We demonstrate that the negative regulatory role of p66Shc stemmed from its ability to block the recruitment of Grb2/ARF1 to the EGFR. Conversely, p66Shc potentiates ARF6 activation as well as the recruitment of this ARF isoform to the EGFR. Interestingly, we demonstrate that Grb2 is also required for the activation and receptor recruitment of ARF6. Additionally, we show an important role for p66Shc in modulating ARF activation, cell growth, and migration in HER2-positive breast cancer cells. Together, our results highlight a central role for adaptor proteins p66Shc and Grb2 in the regulation of ARF1 and ARF6 activation in invasive breast cancer cells. 相似文献

The SH2 inositol 5-phosphatase Ship1 is recruited in an SH2-dependent manner to the erythropoietin receptor 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Ship1 (SH2 inositol 5-phosphatase 1) has been shown to be a target of tyrosine phosphorylation downstream of cytokine and immunoregulatory receptors. In addition to its catalytic activity on phosphatidylinositol substrates, it can serve as an adaptor protein in binding Shc and Grb2. Erythropoietin (EPO), the primary regulator of erythropoiesis, has been shown to activate the tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc, resulting in recruitment of Grb2. However, the mechanism by which the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R) recruits Shc remains unknown. EPO activates the tyrosine phosphorylation of Ship1, resulting in the interdependent recruitment of Shc and Grb2. Ship1 is recruited to the EPO-R in an SH2-dependent manner. Utilizing a panel of EPO-R deletion and tyrosine mutants, we have discovered remarkable redundancy in Ship1 recruitment. EPO-R Tyr(401) appears to be a major site of Ship1 binding; however, Tyr(429) and Tyr(431) can also serve to recruit Ship1. In addition, we have shown that EPO stimulates the formation of a ternary complex consisting of Ship1, Shc, and Grb2. Ship1 may modulate several discrete signal transduction pathways. EPO-dependent activation of ERK1/2 and protein kinase B (PKB)/Akt was examined utilizing a panel of EPO-R deletion mutants. Activation of ERK1/2 was observed in EPO-RDelta99, which retains only the most proximal tyrosine, Tyr(343). In contrast, EPO-dependent PKB activation was observed in EPO-RDelta43, but not in EPO-RDelta99. It appears that EPO-dependent PKB activation is downstream of a region that indirectly couples to phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. 相似文献

Grb2-assosiated binder (Gab) family proteins are docking molecules that can interact with receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) and cytokine receptors and bind several downstream signalling proteins. Studies in several cell types have shown that Gab1 may have a role in signalling mediated by the two RTKs epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) and Met, the receptor for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), but the involvement of Gab1 in EGFR and Met signalling has not been directly compared in the same cell. We have studied mechanisms of activation and role in mitogenic signalling of Gab1 in response to EGF and HGF in cultured rat hepatocytes. Gab1, but not Gab2, was expressed in the hepatocytes and was phosphorylated upon stimulation with EGF or HGF. Depletion of Gab1, using siRNA, decreased the ERK and Akt activation, cyclin D1 expression, and DNA synthesis in response to both EGF and HGF. Studies of mechanisms of recruitment to the receptors showed that HGF induced co-precipitation of Gab1 and Met while EGF induced binding of Gab1 to Grb2 but not to EGFR. Gab1 activation in response to both EGF and HGF was dependent on PI3K. While EGF activated Gab1 and Shc equally, within the same concentration range, HGF very potently and almost exclusively activated Gab1, having only a minimal effect on Shc. Collectively, our results strongly suggest that although Gab1 interacts differently with EGFR and Met, it is involved in mitogenic signalling mediated by both these growth factor receptors in hepatocytes. 相似文献

Ret/ptc2 is a constitutively active, oncogenic form of the c-Ret receptor tyrosine kinase. Like the other papillary thyroid carcinoma forms of Ret, Ret/ptc2 is activated through fusion of the Ret tyrosine kinase domain to the dimerization domain of another protein. Investigation of requirements for Ret/ptc2 mitogenic activity, using coexpression with dominant negative forms of Ras and Raf, indicated that these proteins are required for mitogenic signaling by Ret/ptc2. Because activation of Ras requires recruitment of Grb2 and SOS to the plasma membrane, the subcellular distribution of Ret/ptc2 was investigated, and it was found to localize to the cell periphery. This localization was mediated by association with Enigma via the Ret/ptc2 sequence containing tyrosine 586. Because Shc interacts with MEN2 forms of Ret, and because phosphorylation of Shc results in Grb2 recruitment and subsequent signaling through Ras and Raf, the potential interaction between Ret/ptc2 and Shc was investigated. The PTB domain of Shc also interacted with Ret/ptc2 at tyrosine 586, and this association resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc. Coexpression of chimeric proteins demonstrated that mitogenic signaling from Ret/ptc2 required both recruitment of Shc and subcellular localization by Enigma. Because Shc and Enigma interact with the same site on a Ret/ptc2 monomer, dimerization of Ret/ptc2 allows assembly of molecular complexes that are properly localized via Enigma and transmit mitogenic signals via Shc. 相似文献

Shc regulates epidermal growth factor-induced activation of the JNK signaling pathway. 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Two adaptor molecules, Grb2 and Shc, have been implicated in the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation by receptor tyrosine kinases such as the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Here we show that the EGF-mediated ERK activation is abolished by loss of Grb2, whereas this response is not affected by loss of Shc. Conversely, the EGF-mediated c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation is dependent on Shc, but not Grb2. These findings strongly support distinct roles for Grb2 and Shc in controlling ERK and JNK activation after EGF stimulation. 相似文献

The Src-homology 3 (SH3) domain is one of the most frequent protein recognition modules (PRMs), being represented in signal transduction pathways and in several pathologies such as cancer and AIDS. Grb2 (growth factor receptor-bound protein 2) is an adaptor protein that contains two SH3 domains and is involved in receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signal transduction pathways. The HIV-1 transactivator factor Tat is required for viral replication and it has been shown to bind directly or indirectly to several host proteins, deregulating their functions. In this study, we show interaction between the cellular factor Grb2 and the HIV-1 trans-activating protein Tat. The binding is mediated by the proline-rich sequence of Tat and the SH3 domain of Grb2. As the adaptor protein Grb2 participates in a wide variety of signaling pathways, we characterized at least one of the possible downstream effects of the Tat/Grb2 interaction on the well-known IGF-1R/Raf/MAPK cascade. We show that the binding of Tat to Grb2 impairs activation of the Raf/MAPK pathway, while potentiating the PKA/Raf inhibitory pathway. The Tat/Grb2 interaction affects also viral function by inhibiting the Tat-mediated transactivation of HIV-1 LTR and viral replication in infected primary microglia. 相似文献

Flt3 ligand induces tyrosine phosphorylation of gab1 and gab2 and their association with shp-2, grb2, and PI3 kinase 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
The receptor tyrosine kinase Flt3 has been shown to play an important role in proliferation, differentiation, and survival of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Although some postreceptor signaling events of Flt3 have been characterized, the involvement of Gab family proteins in Flt3 signaling is not known. In this study, we show that both Gab1 and Gab2 are rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated after Flt3 ligand stimulation of Flt3 ligand-responsive cells. They interact with tyrosine-phosphorylated Shp-2, p85, Grb2, and Shc. The results suggest that Gab proteins are engaged in Flt3 signaling to mediate downstream activation of Shp-2 and PI3 kinase pathways and possibly the Ras/Raf/MAPK pathway. 相似文献

STK/RON tyrosine kinase, a member of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor family, is a receptor for macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP). To examine the STK/RON signalling pathway, we generated STK/ RON transfectants showing opposite features in growth. STK/RON-expressing Ba/F3 pro-B cells (BaF/STK) exhibited MSP-dependent growth, whereas STK/ RON-expressing mouse erythroleukaemia cells (MEL/ STK) displayed MSP-induced apoptosis. This apoptosis was accompanied by the prolonged activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which has recently been implicated in the initiation of apoptosis. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses showed that autophosphorylated STK/RON associated with PLC-gamma, P13-kinase, Shc and Grb2 in both transfectants. However, major tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, p61 and p65, specifically associated with STK/RON in MEL/STK cells. Mutations at two C-terminal tyrosine residues, Y1330 and Y1337, in the counterpart of the multifunctional docking site of the HGF receptor abolished both MSP-induced growth and apoptosis. Analyses of these mutants and in vitro association revealed that signalling proteins including p61 and p65 directly bound to the phosphotyrosines in the multifunctional docking site. These results demonstrate that positive or negative signals toward cell growth are generated through the multifunctional docking site and suggest the involvement of p61 and p65 as well as JNK in apoptosis. Our findings provide the first evidence for apoptosis via a receptor tyrosine kinase. 相似文献

The hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor, Met, is frequently overexpressed in nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC). Here, we showed for the first time that human NPC cells with high Met expression were more sensitive to the cell motility and invasion effect of HGF. The downregulation of Met by small interfering RNA decreased tumor cell invasion/migration. HGF significantly increased matrix metalloproteinase-9 production. This was inhibited by blocking phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), but not extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways. We also demonstrated that PI3K induced activation of JNK, with Akt as a potential point of this cross-talk. These results provide new insights into the molecular mechanism responsible for NPC progression and metastasis. 相似文献

We previously showed that the Kaposi Sarcoma line KS-IMM express a functional Met tyrosine kinase receptor, which, upon HGF stimulation, activates motogenic, proliferative, and invasive responses. In this study, we investigated the signalling pathways activated by HGF, as well as by Met monoclonal antibodies (Mabs), acting as full or partial agonists. The full agonist Mab mimics HGF in all biological and biochemical aspects. It elicits the whole spectrum of responses, while the partial agonist Mab induces only wound healing. These differences correlated with a more prolonged and sustained tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor and MAPK evoked by HGF and by the full agonist Mab, relative to the partial agonist Mab. Since Gab1, JNK and PI 3-kinase are activated with same intensity and kinetics by HGF and by the two agonist antibodies, it is concluded that level and duration of MAPK activation by Met receptor are crucial for the induction of a full HGF-dependent mitogenic and invasive program in KS cells. 相似文献

We have shown previously that either Grb2- or Shc-mediated signaling from the oncogenic Met receptor Tpr-Met is sufficient to trigger cell cycle progression in Xenopus oocytes. However, direct binding of these adaptors to Tpr-Met is dispensable, implying that another Met binding partner mediates these responses. In this study, we show that overexpression of Grb2-associated binder 1 (Gab1) promotes cell cycle progression when Tpr-Met is expressed at suboptimal levels. This response requires that Gab1 possess an intact Met-binding motif, the pleckstrin homology domain, and the binding sites for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2, but not the Grb2 and CrkII/phospholipase Cγ binding sites. Importantly, we establish that Gab1-mediated signals are critical for cell cycle transition promoted by the oncogenic Met and fibroblast growth factor receptors, but not by progesterone, the natural inducer of cell cycle transition in Xenopus oocytes. Moreover, Gab1 is essential for Tpr-Met–mediated morphological transformation and proliferation of fibroblasts. This study provides the first evidence that Gab1 is a key binding partner of the Met receptor for induction of cell cycle progression, proliferation, and oncogenic morphological transformation. This study identifies Gab1 and its associated signaling partners as potential therapeutic targets to impair proliferation or transformation of cancer cells in human malignancies harboring a deregulated Met receptor. 相似文献

Proximal signaling events and protein-protein interactions initiated after activation of the c-Ret receptor tyrosine kinase by its ligand, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), were investigated in cells carrying native and mutated forms of this receptor. Mutation of Tyr-1062 (Y1062F) in the cytoplasmic tail of c-Ret abolished receptor binding and phosphorylation of the adaptor Shc and eliminated activation of Ras by GDNF. Phosphorylation of Erk kinases was also greatly attenuated but not eliminated by this mutation. This residual wave of Erk phosphorylation was independent of the kinase activity of c-Ret. Mutation of Tyr-1096 (Y1096F), a binding site for the adaptor Grb2, had no effect on Erk activation by GDNF. Activation of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) and its downstream effector Akt was also reduced in the Y1062F mutant but not completely abolished unless Tyr-1096 was also mutated. Ligand stimulation of neuronal cells induced the assembly of a large protein complex containing c-Ret, Grb2, and tyrosine-phosphorylated forms of Shc, p85(PI3K), the adaptor Gab2, and the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. In agreement with Ras-independent activation of PI3K by GDNF in neuronal cells, survival of sympathetic neurons induced by GDNF was dependent on PI3K but was not affected by microinjection of blocking anti-Ras antibodies, which did compromise neuronal survival by nerve growth factor, suggesting that Ras is not required for GDNF-induced survival of sympathetic neurons. These results indicate that upon ligand stimulation, at least two distinct protein complexes assemble on phosphorylated Tyr-1062 of c-Ret via Shc, one leading to activation of the Ras/Erk pathway through recruitment of Grb2/Sos and another to the PI3K/Akt pathway through recruitment of Grb2/Gab2 followed by p85(PI3K) and SHP-2. This latter complex can also assemble directly onto phosphorylated Tyr-1096, offering an alternative route to PI3K activation by GDNF. 相似文献

The literature data on the role of IRS1/IRS2 proteins, endogenous substrates for insulin receptor tyrosine kinase, in transduction of signals generated by insulin superfamily peptides (insulin, insulin-like growth factor) were analyzed. The molecular mechanisms of the functional coupling of IRS proteins with peptide receptors possessing a tyrosine kinase activity and SH2 domain-containing proteins (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, Grb2 adaptor protein, protein phosphotyrosine phosphatase) were discussed. The structural and functional properties of IRS proteins (distribution of functional domains and sites for tyrosine phosphorylation; conservatism of amino acid sequences) were characterized. The data on the alternative pathways of transduction of signals which are generated by insulin and related peptides and do not involve IRS proteins were analyzed. These pathways are realized through Shc proteins or via direct interaction between receptors and SH2 proteins. Amino acid sequences of IRS proteins and insulin superfamily tyrosine kinase receptors were compared. The homologous regions in IRS proteins and receptors, which can be responsible for their coupling with phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and protein phosphotyrosine phosphatases, were identified. 相似文献

A cDNA encoding a novel mucin protein, MUC20, was isolated as a gene that is up-regulated in the renal tissues of patients with immunoglobulin A nephropathy. We demonstrate here that the C terminus of MUC20 associates with the multifunctional docking site of Met without ligand activation, preventing Grb2 recruitment to Met and thus attenuating hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-induced transient extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1 and -2 activation. Production of MUC20 reduced HGF-induced matrix metalloproteinase expression and proliferation, which require the Grb2-Ras pathway, whereas cell scattering, branching morphogenesis, and survival via the Gab1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathways was not affected. Thus, MUC20 reduces HGF-induced activation of the Grb2-Ras pathway but not the Gab1/PI3K pathways. We further demonstrate that the cytoplasmic domain of MUC20 has the ability to oligomerize and that the oligomerization augments its affinity for Met. Taken together, these results suggest that MUC20 is a novel regulator of the Met signaling cascade which has a role in suppression of the Grb2-Ras pathway. 相似文献
