Tumor-promoting phorbol diesters mediate phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
4 beta-Phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA) markedly inhibited the binding of low concentrations (less than 10(-9 m) of 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) to A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells. However, very little change in the binding of 125-I-EGF at high concentrations (greater than 10(-8) M) was observed in response to PMA. Affinity labeling of the 170,000-dalton EGF receptor with 125I-EGF and disuccinimidyl suberate was also decreased by the tumor promoter at low, but not high, concentrations of 125I-EGF. In order to examine this action of PMA on the EGF receptor, the receptor phosphorylation state was evaluated in A431 cells that had been incubated with [32P]phosphate for 3 h prior to the addition of PMA. The 32P content of the EGF receptor purified with EGF-Sepharose was increased by 38% compared with the same amount of receptor isolated from control cells. The increase in EGF receptor phosphorylation was dose-dependent with a half-maximal effect between 0.1 and 1 nM PMA and was specific for tumor promoting analogues of phorbol diesters. Phosphoamino acid analysis indicated that the increase in the 32P content of the EGF receptor was mainly due to phosphoserine. These results demonstrate that the EGF receptor is a target for PMA action and suggest that the mechanism of PMA action on the response of cells to epidermal growth factor may be mediated in part by phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

The cell-permeable diacylglycerol, sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol (DiC8), is shown to mimic the effect of tumor promoting phorbol diesters on epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding and action in intact cells. DiC8 inhibited the binding of [3H]phorbol dibutyrate to A431 cell monolayers indicating that the diacylglycerol interacts with the phorbol diester receptor. At 0.3 microM, DiC8 half-maximally inhibited the high affinity binding of 125I-EGF to A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells. Scatchard analysis indicated that the inhibition of 125I-EGF binding was very similar to that observed in the presence of 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA). DiC8 also mimicked the action of PMA to increase the phosphorylation state of the EGF receptor in 32P-labeled cells. Phosphoamino acid analysis demonstrated that DiC8 and PMA caused an increase in the level of EGF-receptor phosphoserine and phosphothreonine, whereas EGF caused an increase in the level of phosphoserine, phosphothreonine, and phosphotyrosine. Phosphopeptide mapping of the EGF receptor showed that DiC8 and PMA enhanced the phosphorylation of the same tryptic peptides. DiC8 inhibited the EGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor in A431 cells in a similar manner to that observed with PMA. In further experiments with quiescent Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts, DiC8 mimicked the ability of PMA to stimulate the incorporation of [methyl-3H]thymidine synergistically with low concentrations of EGF. This result indicates that DiC8 will mimic the long-term effects of PMA to regulate mitogenesis and raises the possibility that it may be active in two stage carcinogenesis. As both DiC8 and PMA stimulate the Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (C-kinase) in vitro, the results support the hypothesis that the activation of C-kinase is a critical component of phorbol diester action on EGF receptor modulation and cell proliferation. 相似文献

Treatment of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells with 4-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) causes an inhibition of the high affinity binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to cell surface receptors and an inhibition of the EGF receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity. The hypothesis that PMA controls EGF receptor function by regulating the oligomeric state of the receptor was tested. Dimeric EGF receptors bound to 125I-EGF were identified by covalent cross-linking analysis using disuccinimidyl suberimidate. Treatment of cells with PMA in the presence of 20 nM 125I-EGF caused no significant change in the level of labeled cross-linked monomeric and dimeric receptor species. Investigation of the in vitro autophosphorylation of receptor monomers and dimers cross-linked with 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide demonstrated that the treatment of cells with PMA caused an inhibition of the tyrosine phosphorylation of both monomeric and dimeric EGF receptors. We conclude that the inhibition of the EGF receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity caused by PMA is not associated with the regulation of the oligomeric state of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Vitamin K-3 or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) reduced the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to its receptor by more than 90% in human foreskin fibroblasts. After the equilibration of fibroblasts with [32P]orthophosphate, vitamin K-3 or TPA markedly increased the amount of 32P found in the receptor; the increase was principally due to serine and threonine phosphorylation. By the use of two-dimensional tryptic phosphopeptide mapping, using a synthetic phosphopeptide as a standard, threonine-654 was identified as one of the residues whose phosphorylation state was elevated by vitamin K-3 or TPA. Because of the large amounts of EGF receptor present on A431 human carcinoma cells, these cells were used to study further the relationship between the phosphorylation state of threonine-654, the tyrosine phosphorylation state of the receptor, and the receptor's protein tyrosine kinase activity toward exogenous substrates. Vitamin K-3 and TPA both increased the amount of phosphate on threonine-654 in A431 cells. However, whereas receptor from TPA-treated cells lacked phosphotyrosine, vitamin K-3-treated cells contained receptor with markedly elevated levels of phosphotyrosine. The addition of vitamin K-3, TPA or EGF to intact A431 cells followed by homogenization of the cells and the assay of EGF receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity by the use of a synthetic peptide substrate resulted in marked decreases in apparent receptor kinase activity. Therefore, assuming that the activity measured in the peptide assay reflects the protein tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor in the intact cell, the activity of the EGF receptor kinase cannot be deduced from the amount of phosphotyrosine associated with the receptor. 相似文献

Modulation of type alpha transforming growth factor receptors by a phorbol ester tumor promoter 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) and an EGF-like transforming growth factor (eTGF) from retrovirally transformed cells bind to a common receptor type in A431 cells. We have investigated the effects of the tumor promoter phorbol myristate acetate [PMA] on EGF/eTGF receptors in intact A431 cells. Treatment with PMA at 37 degrees C induces a complete loss of high-affinity (Kd = 35-50 pM) binding sites for eTGF and EGF on the cell surface of A431 cells. This effect is half-maximal at 0.1 nM PMA, exhibits rapid kinetics, and persists for at least 4 hr in the presence of PMA. eTGF and PMA added to intact A431 cells induce the phosphorylation of immunoprecipitable 170kd EGF/eTGF receptors. The EGF/eTGF receptor isolated from control cells was found to contain phosphoserine and phosphothreonine. PMA and eTGF caused a marked increase in the level of these two phosphoamino acids. In addition, eTGF but not PMA caused the appearance of phosphotyrosine in the EGF/eTGF receptor in vivo. We conclude that the tumor-promoting phorbol diester regulates both the affinity and phosphorylation state of the A431 cell receptor for the type alpha transforming growth factors, eTGF and EGF. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor receptor. Characterization of a monoclonal antibody specific for the receptor of A431 cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
A monoclonal antibody to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor of A431 cells was obtained after fusion of immunized BALB/c mouse spleen cells with NS-1 myeloma cells. Specific binding of the antibody to the plasma membrane of A431 cells was demonstrated by indirect immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. The antibody did not react with human KB cells, normal rat kidney cells, or Swiss 3T3 cells. The antibody is an IgG3K; it specifically immunoprecipitated a Mr approximately 170,000 protein from radiolabeled A431 cell extracts. This protein is phosphorylated in a EGF-dependent manner in intact A431 cells and in Triton X-100-solubilized plasma membranes. The specificity of the interaction of the antibody with the Mr = 170,000 protein was confirmed by electrophoretic transfer of A431 cell proteins to nitrocellulose followed by incubation with the antibody and 125I-protein A. When 125I-EGF was covalently cross-linked to its receptor, the 125I-EGF-receptor complex was specifically precipitated by the antibody. The monoclonal antibody did not inhibit the binding of 125I-EGF to its receptor in intact A431 cells and also failed to stimulate the phosphorylation of the Triton X-100-solubilized EGF receptor. The results indicate that the antibody and EGF bind to different sites on the EGF receptor. The antibody will be useful for isolating the EGF receptor in an unactivated form. 相似文献

Treatment of cells with tumor-promoting phorbol diesters, which causes activation of protein kinase C, leads to phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor at threonine-654. Addition of phorbol diesters to intact cells causes inhibition of the EGF-induced tyrosine-protein kinase activity of the EGF receptor and it has been suggested that this effect of phorbol diesters is mediated by the phosphorylation of the receptor by protein kinase C. We measured the activity of protein kinase C in A431 cells by determining the incorporation of [32P]phosphate into peptides containing threonine-654 obtained by trypsin digestion of EGF receptors. After 3 h of exposure to serum-free medium, A431 cells had no detectable protein kinase C activity. Addition of EGF to these cells resulted in [32P] incorporation into threonine-654 as well as into tyrosine residues. This indicates that EGF promotes the activation of protein kinase C in A431 cells. The phosphorylation of threonine-654 induced by EGF was maximal after only 5 min of EGF addition and the [32P] incorporation into threonine-654 reached 50% of the [32P] in a tyrosine-containing peptide. This indicates that a significant percentage of the total EGF receptors are phosphorylated by protein kinase C. A variety of external stimuli activate Na+/H+ exchange, including EGF, phorbol diesters, and hypertonicity. To ascertain whether activation of protein kinase C is an intracellular common effector of all of these systems, we measured the activity of protein kinase C after exposure of A431 cells to hyperosmotic conditions and observed no effect on phosphorylation of threonine-654, therefore, activation of Na+/H+ exchange by hypertonic medium is independent of protein kinase C activity. Since stimulation of protein kinase C by phorbol diesters results in a decrease in EGF receptor activity, the stimulation of protein kinase C activity by addition of EGF to A431 cells contributes to a feedback mechanism which results in the attenuation of EGF receptor function. 相似文献

Structural requirements for diacylglycerols to mimic tumor-promoting phobol diester action on the epidermal growth factor receptor 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The structural requirements for diacylglycerols to mimic the action of tumor-promoting phorbol diesters on the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor of A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells were investigated. Five biological effects were considered: inhibition of high affinity 125I-EGF binding, change in the phosphorylation state of the EGF receptor, inhibition of the EGF-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor, inhibition of [3H]phorbol 12 beta, 13 alpha-dibutyrate binding, and stimulation of calcium- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (C-kinase) in vitro. A marked effect of the acyl chain length, 3-10 carbons, of symmetric sn-1,2-diacylglycerols was observed on their ability to mimic the effect of 4 beta-phorbol 12 beta-myristate 13 alpha-acetate (PMA). sn-1,2-Dipropanoylglycerol did not mimic the effects of PMA, but sn-1,2-didecanoylglycerol potently mimicked PMA action. A correlation was found between the ability of these diacylglycerols to stimulate the activity of C-kinase in vitro and to mimic the effects of PMA on the EGF receptor in intact cells. Analogues of sn-1,2-dioctanoylglycerol in which the 3' hydroxyl group was substituted with hydrogen, thio or chloro moieties were inactive when assayed for their ability to stimulate C-kinase in vitro and mimic PMA action in intact cells. We conclude that the hydroxyl group of a diacylglycerol is vital for the interaction with the phorbol diester receptor. The stringent correlation between the potency of the 11 diacylglycerol analogues tested to modulate C-kinase in vitro and to mimic PMA action in vivo provides strong evidence for the hypothesis that C-kinase plays a central role in the regulation of A431 cell EGF receptors by tumor-promoting phorbol diesters. 相似文献

Effects of platelet-derived growth factor on phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor in human skin fibroblasts 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Heterologous regulation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) was studied in FS4 human skin fibroblasts. The addition of PDGF to FS4 cells inhibited high affinity binding of 125I-EGF and stimulated phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. Phosphopeptide analysis by high performance liquid chromatography revealed that PDGF treatment of cells increased phosphorylation at several distinct sites of the EGF receptor. However, PDGF did not stimulate phosphorylation of threonine 654, a residue previously shown to be phosphorylated when protein kinase C is activated. The tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) also stimulated phosphorylation of the same peptides from the EGF receptor as PDGF, and, in addition, induced phosphorylation of threonine 654. TPA inhibited both high and low affinity 125I-EGF binding by these cells. PDGF treatment of cells had no effect on EGF-dependent, tyrosine-specific autophosphorylation of the receptor, whereas TPA treatment was inhibitory. TPA, but not PDGF, stimulated phosphorylation of a Mr = 80,000 protein, known to be a substrate for protein kinase C, even though PDGF appeared to mediate breakdown of phosphoinositides. These data suggest that regulation of EGF receptor function by PDGF and TPA are distinct in these cells, even though some elements of regulation are shared. The results differ from those previously reported for a human lung fibroblast isolate, indicating that cell type-specific differences may exist in metabolism of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

Multisite phosphorylation of the epidermal growth factor receptor. Use of site-directed mutagenesis to examine the role of serine/threonine phosphorylation 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
J L Countaway P McQuilkin N Gironès R J Davis 《The Journal of biological chemistry》1990,265(6):3407-3416
The major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation of the human epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor observed in intact cells are Thr654, Thr669, Ser1046, and Ser1047. Phosphorylation of the EGF receptor is increased at these sites in cells treated with platelet-derived growth factor or phorbol ester. This increase in EGF receptor phosphorylation is associated with an inhibition of the high affinity binding of EGF to cell surface receptors and an inhibition of the receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity. In order to test the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor is mechanistically related to the modulation of EGF receptor function, we replaced the major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation with alanine residues. EGF receptors containing single point mutations or multiple mutations were expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. Analysis of the regulation of the EGF receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity demonstrated that phorbol ester caused an inhibition of the tyrosine phosphorylation of wild-type receptors and receptors lacking Thr669, Ser1046, or Ser1047. In contrast, the inhibition of EGF receptor tyrosine phosphorylation caused by phorbol ester was not observed for any of the mutated EGF receptors that lacked Thr654. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that the phosphorylation of the EGF receptor at Thr654 is required for the inhibition of the receptor tyrosine protein kinase activity caused by phorbol ester. Investigation of the apparent affinity of the EGF receptor demonstrated that treatment with phorbol ester caused an inhibition of the high affinity binding of 125I-EGF to cells expressing wild-type EGF receptors and each of the mutated EGF receptors examined. We conclude that the regulation of the apparent affinity of the EGF receptor is independent of the major sites of serine and threonine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. 相似文献

A method was developed to label epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors with 125I-EGF in whole cells using chemical cross-linking reagents. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis resolved an Mr approximately 180,000 EGF-receptor complex and larger Mr greater than or equal to 360,000 aggregates. The formation of the larger complexes was time and temperature dependent and appeared to represent the initial events of EGF receptor clustering. Alteration of the ratio of 125I-EGF-labeled high- (Kd approximately 0.16 nM) and low- (Kd approximately 1.5 nM) affinity complexes by competition with unlabeled EGF or by induction of additional high-affinity sites with dexamethasone suggested that both sites were represented by the Mr approximately 180,000 125I-EGF-receptor complexes. Digestion of cells before cross-linking detected a small population of trypsin-resistant Mr approximately 180,000 receptors, which could represent previously described cryptic and/or high-affinity receptors. Few of the Mr approximately 360,000 receptors were trypsin resistant. Glucocorticoid induction of high-affinity EGF receptors failed to induce detectable changes in the microclustering of EGF receptors but did result in a 50% increase in EGF-induced receptor phosphorylation in HeLa S3 cell membranes at 4 degrees C. Thus, glucocorticoids increase high-affinity EGF binding sites, EGF-induced receptor phosphorylation, and cell growth. 相似文献

Immunoaffinity purification of the epidermal growth factor receptor. Stoichiometry of binding and kinetics of self-phosphorylation 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor protein has been purified in a single high-yield step by immunoaffinity chromatography of extracts of A431 cells. A monoclonal antibody directed against the EGF binding site of the receptor was immobilized to Sepharose 4B as a specific immune absorbent and competitive elution with EGF was used to obtain purified EGF receptor protein with tyrosine kinase activity. The stoichiometry of EGF binding was determined by comparing 125I-EGF binding to A431 cells with the mass of EGF receptor protein in those cells as measured by immunoaffinity chromatography, radioimmunoassay, and immune precipitation. Each measurement indicated one EGF binding site/EGF receptor protein molecule. Study of the kinetics of autophosphorylation revealed rapid incorporation of 1 mol of phosphate/mol of enzyme followed by slower incorporation of additional phosphate groups. The autophosphorylation reaction has a Km for ATP (0.2 microM) which is about 10-fold lower than that for phosphorylation of exogenous substrates. The kinetically preferred autophosphorylation is an intramolecular reaction. 相似文献

Solubilization of membrane receptor for epidermal growth factor. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
G Carpenter 《Life sciences》1979,24(18):1691-1697
The membrane receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGF) has been solubilized from A-431 tumor cells using Triton X-100. Operational criteria used to define solubilization include failure of the binding activity to be pelleted after centrifugation at 90,000 x g for 1.5 hrs and the requirement for polyethylene glycol precipitation to detect 125I-EGF: receptor complexes on membrane filters. Properties of the solubilized EGF are characterized and compared to the properties of the particulate receptor. The specific binding capacity of the solubilized EGF receptor was 8.0 picomoles 125I-EGF bound per mg protein--approximately 60% of the binding capacity of particulate receptor preparations. Also, solubilization of the EGF receptor resulted in a 10-fold decrease in the affinity of the receptor for 125I-EGF. 相似文献

Modulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor by brain-derived growth factor in Swiss mouse 3T3 cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Incubation of Swiss mouse 3T3 cells at 37 degrees C with bovine brain-derived growth factor (BDGF) decrease the cell surface 125I-EGF binding activity of these cells by 70-80%. This down-modulation of the EGF receptor by BDGF was time, temperature, and dose dependent. Scatchard plot analysis indicated that BDGF binding led to a selective decrease in the number of high-affinity EGF receptors. The BDGF-induced down-modulation of the EGF receptor was completely blocked by protamine, a potent inhibitor of receptor binding and mitogenic activities of BDGF. BDGF down-modulated the EGF receptor in phorbol myristic acetate (PMA)-pretreated cells, as well as in control cells. Furthermore, PMA-pretreated cells responded mitogenically to BDGF, whereas PMA itself failed to stimulate the mitogenic response of PMA-pretreated cells. This BDGF-induced down-modulation of the EGF receptor in PMA-desensitized cells suggests that BDGF down-regulates the EGF receptor by a mechanism distinct from that of PMA. Incubation of cells with compounds which are known to inhibit pinocytosis blocked the down-modulation induced either by BDGF or by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) but had no effect on the PMA-induced down-modulation. Incubation of cells with inhibitors of receptor recycling enhanced the BDGF-induced down-modulation of the EGF receptor. These results suggest that BDGF and PDGF induce down-modulation of the EGF receptor by increasing the internalization of cell surface high-affinity receptors and that the internalization process may not be required for down-modulation induced by PMA. 相似文献

Treatment of Swiss mouse 3T3 cells and human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells with protamine at 37 degrees C increased the 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding activity at 4 degrees C. The effect of protamine on the increase of 125I-EGF binding activity appeared to be time, temperature, and dose dependent. This up-modulation of 125I-EGF binding by protamine correlated with protamine enhancement of EGF-stimulated mitogenesis, with respect to the magnitude of the effect and the dose response curves. Scatchard plot analyses indicated that protamine induced an increase in numbers of both high and low affinity EGF receptors without affecting their affinities. Protamine also increased functionally active EGF receptors in plasma membranes and solubilized membranes. This was evidenced by Scatchard plot analyses and by a protamine-induced increase of 125I-EGF-EGF receptor complex and an increase in EGF-stimulated phosphorylation of the EGF receptor. Combined with column chromatography of the solubilized EGF receptor on protamine-agarose gel, these results suggest that protamine may increase the EGF receptor number by directly activating cryptic EGF receptors in the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Regulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor phosphorylation state by sphingosine in A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

The regulation of protein phosphorylation by sphingosine in A431 human epidermoid carcinoma cells was examined. Sphingosine is a competitive inhibitor of phorbol ester binding to protein kinase C (Ca2+/phospholipid-dependent enzyme) and potently inhibits phosphotransferase activity in vitro. Addition of sphingosine to intact A431 cells caused an inhibition of the phorbol ester-stimulated phosphorylation of two protein kinase C substrates, epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor threonine 654 and transferrin receptor serine 24. We conclude that sphingosine inhibits the activity of protein kinase C in intact A431 cells. However, further experiments demonstrated that sphingosine-treatment of A431 cells resulted in the regulation of the EGF receptor by a mechanism that was independent of protein kinase C. First, sphingosine caused an increase in the threonine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor on a unique tryptic peptide. Second, sphingosine caused an increase in the affinity of the EGF receptor in A431 and in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing wild-type (Thr654) and mutated (Ala654) EGF receptors. Sphingosine was also observed to cause an increase in the number of EGF-binding sites expressed at the surface of A431 cells. Examination of the time course of sphingosine action demonstrated that the effects on EGF binding were rapid (maximal at 2 mins) and were observed prior to the stimulation of receptor phosphorylation (maximal at 20 mins). We conclude that sphingosine is a potently bioactive molecule that modulates cellular functions by: 1) inhibiting protein kinase C; 2) stimulating a protein kinase C-independent pathway of protein phosphorylation; and 3) increasing the affinity and number of cell surface EGF receptors. 相似文献

Addition of tumor promoting phorbol esters, such as phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), to many cell lines results in a decrease of 125I-epidermal growth factor (EGF) binding and increased serine/threonine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor in a process termed transmodulation. It is, however, unclear whether or not receptor phosphorylation is causally related to the inhibition of high affinity EGF binding. We have investigated the significance of phosphorylation/dephosphorylation events in the mechanism of PMA-induced transmodulation using the adenylate cyclase activator cholera toxin and the serine/threonine protein phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. In Rat-1 fibroblasts treated at 37 degrees C, PMA induced a rapid decrease in EGF binding which persisted for 3 hours. In contrast, cells exposed to PMA in the presence of cholera toxin exhibited a marked recovery of binding within 60 minutes. The PMA-stimulated decrease in binding correlated with a rapid increase in the phosphorylation state of the EGF receptor. While phosphorylation of the receptor was sustained at an elevated level for at least three hours in cells receiving PMA alone, EGF receptor phosphorylation decreased between 1 and 3 hours in cells treated with PMA and cholera toxin. Furthermore, the cholera toxin-stimulated return of EGF binding was inhibited by treatment with the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid. These results suggest that a cholera toxin-activated phosphatase can increase binding capacity of the transmodulated EGF receptor in Rat-1 cells. Cholera toxin treatment elicited a qualitatively similar response in cells transmodulated by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). Okadaic acid antagonized the natural return of binding observed in cells stimulated with PDGF alone, indicating that a dephosphorylation event may be required for the recovery of normal EGF binding after receptor transmodulation. 相似文献

We examined the extent of EGF consumption by EGFR in A431 cells. When 125I-EGF was added to A431 cell cultures at low or high density, at concentrations which corresponded to 10-fold excess of ligand over receptor on the cell surface, most of the 125I-EGF was consumed within 2 h. The amounts of 125I-EGF consumed were much greater than available EGFR on the A431 cells, by a factor of 6.5 in low-density cultures and 5.8 in high-density cultures. When the concentration of 125I-EGF was increased in low density cultures, further consumption of 125I-EGF by the A431 cells was greatly reduced, partially due to a rapid down regulation of EGFR. However, when higher concentrations of 125I-EGF were added to high density cultures, with reduced receptor down regulation, the cells continued to consume a large fraction of the EGF in the culture medium. The consumption of 125I-EGF by these cultures was in excellent agreement with the measured amount of ligand internalized into the cell. EGF consumption was far in excess of the number of EGFR down regulated or degraded. Only a minor portion of the EGFR could have been replaced during the assay period by synthesis of new EGFR or from the intracellular pool of EGFR, and the fluid-phase uptake of EGF is only temporarily increased by exposure to EGF. Our results demonstrate that EGFR in high density A431 cell cultures recycled many times. The apparent level of recycling was dependent upon the concentration of EGF and followed Michaelis-Menton kinetics for ligand concentrations as high as 215 nM. At this EGF concentration, high-density cultures consumed 45 EGF molecules per receptor over a period of 6 h. 相似文献

This report describes analysis of factors which regulate the binding of EGF to EGF receptor, receptor internalization, and receptor recycling. Three different methods were used to inhibit high-affinity EGF binding as measured at equilibrium: treatment of cells with an active phorbol ester (PMA), binding of a mAb directed against the EGF receptor (mAb108), and truncation of most of the cytoplasmic domain of the receptor. These treatments reduced the rate at which low concentrations of EGF bound to cells, but did not affect the rate of EGF dissociation. We conclude that high-affinity EGF binding on living cells results from a difference in the apparent on rate of EGF binding. We then used these conditions and cell lines to test for the rate of EGF internalization at different concentrations of EGF. We demonstrate that internalization of the EGF receptor is stimulated roughly 50-fold at saturating concentrations of EGF, but is stimulated an additional two- to threefold at low concentrations (less than 1 nM). Four treatments reduce the rate of internalization of low concentrations of EGF to the rate seen at saturating EGF concentrations. Phorbol ester treatment and mAb108 binding to "wild type" receptor reduce this rate (and reduce high-affinity binding). Point mutation at Lys721 (kinase negative EGF receptor) and point mutation at Thr654 (removing a major site of protein kinase C phosphorylation) reduce the internalization rate, without affecting high-affinity binding. We suggest that while EGF stimulates endocytosis for all receptors, high-affinity receptors bind and are internalized more quickly than low-affinity receptors. Tyrosine kinase activity and the Thr654 region appear necessary for this response. 相似文献

A single class of high-affinity receptors for EGF were detected on mouse embryonic palatal mesenchyme (MEPM) cells cultured in vitro. The degree of confluence of the cultured cells did not affect the number or affinity of the binding sites. Culture of MEPM cells in the presence of bFGF, IGF-II or TGF-beta 1 induced changes in 125I-EGF binding. TGF-beta 1 caused a marked reduction in binding to 40% of control levels. This reduction was achieved after 2 h and persisted for 24 h after addition of the growth factor. IGF-II induced a similar reduction but this effect was transitory; after a 12 h pretreatment with IGF-II, binding was restored to control levels. The effects of bFGF were biphasic. Initially, a short pre-treatment period (3-5 h) with bFGF caused a small reduction in 125I-EGF binding; longer periods of pre-incubation (24 h) resulted in a large increase in receptor number. Pre-incubation in medium containing both bFGF and TGF-beta 1 resulted in a decrease in EGF binding. Thus, TGF-beta 1 negated the large increase in receptor number induced by bFGF alone. Changes in receptor number were usually, but not always, directly related to changes in the biological activity of EGF, as assessed by a thymidine incorporation assay. This study highlights the possible interactive role of growth factors known to be present in the developing palate. 相似文献
