Receptor activator of NF-kappaB recruits multiple TRAF family adaptors and activates c-Jun N-terminal kinase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Receptor activator of NF-kappaB (RANK) is a recently cloned member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily, and its function has been implicated in osteoclast differentiation and dendritic cell survival. Many of the TNFR family receptors recruit various members of the TNF receptor-associated factor (TRAF) family for transduction of their signals to NF-kappaB and c-Jun N-terminal kinase. In this study, the involvement of TRAF family members and the activation of the JNK pathway in signal transduction by RANK were investigated. TRAF1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 were found to bind RANK in vitro. Association of RANK with each of these TRAF proteins was also detected in vivo. Expression of RANK in cultured cells also induced the activation of JNK, which was blocked by a dominant-negative form of JNK. Furthermore, by employing various C-terminal deletion mutants of RANK, the regions responsible for TRAF interaction and JNK activation were identified. TRAF5 was determined to bind to the C-terminal 11 amino acids and the other TRAF members to a region N-terminal to the TRAF5 binding site. The domain responsible for JNK activation was localized to the same region where TRAF1, 2, 3, and 6 bound, which suggests that these TRAF molecules might mediate the RANK-induced JNK activation. 相似文献

Physical and functional interaction of filamin (actin-binding protein-280) and tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) is an intracellular protein involved in signal transduction from TNF receptor I and II and related receptors. TRAF2 is required for TNF-induced activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase/stress-activated protein kinase (JNK/SAPK), and TRAF2 can also mediate activation of NF-kappaB. Here we have identified the actin-binding protein Filamin (actin-binding protein-280) as a TRAF2-interacting protein. Filamin binds to the Ring zinc finger domain of TRAF2. Overexpressed Filamin inhibits TRAF2-induced activation of JNK/SAPK and of NF-kappaB. Furthermore, ectopically expressed Filamin inhibits NF-kappaB activation induced via TNF, interleukin-1, Toll receptors, and TRAF6 but not activation induced via overexpression of NIK, a downstream effector in these pathways. Importantly, TNF fails to activate SAPK or NF-kappaB in a human melanoma cell line deficient in Filamin. Reintroduction of Filamin into these cells restores the TNF response. The data imply a role for Filamin in inflammatory signal transduction pathways. 相似文献

Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-mediated immune responses, including activation of monocytes, macrophages, and endothelial cells, play an important role in the pathogenesis of Gram-negative bacteria-induced sepsis syndrome. Activation of NF-kappaB is thought to be required for cytokine release from LPS-responsive cells, a critical step for endotoxic effects. Here we investigated the role and involvement of interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) signal transducer molecules in LPS signaling in human dermal microvessel endothelial cells (HDMEC) and THP-1 monocytic cells. LPS stimulation of HDMEC and THP-1 cells initiated an IL-1 receptor-like NF-kappaB signaling cascade. In transient cotransfection experiments, dominant negative mutants of the IL-1 signaling pathway, including MyD88, IRAK, IRAK2, and TRAF6 inhibited both IL-1- and LPS-induced NF-kappaB-luciferase activity. LPS-induced NF-kappaB activation was not inhibited by a dominant negative mutant of TRAF2 that is involved in TNF signaling. LPS-induced activation of NF-kappaB-responsive reporter gene was not inhibited by IL-1 receptor antagonist. TLR2 and TLR4 were expressed on the cell surface of HDMEC and THP-1 cells. These findings suggest that a signal transduction molecule in the LPS receptor complex may belong to the IL-1 receptor/toll-like receptor (TLR) super family, and the LPS signaling cascade uses an analogous molecular framework for signaling as IL-1 in mononuclear phagocytes and endothelial cells. 相似文献

Lipopolysaccharide-induced apoptosis of endothelial cells and its inhibition by vascular endothelial growth factor 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Endothelial injury is a major manifestation of septic shock induced by LPS. Recently, LPS was shown to induce apoptosis in different types of endothelial cells. In this study, we observed that pretreatment with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a known cell survival factor, blocked LPS-induced apoptosis in endothelial cells. We then further defined this LPS-induced apoptotic pathway and its inhibition by VEGF. We found that LPS treatment increased caspase-3 and caspase-1 activities and induced the cleavage of focal adhesion kinase. LPS also augmented expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and the tumor suppressor gene p53. The pro-apoptotic Bax was found to translocate to the mitochondria from the cytosol following stimulation with LPS. Pretreatment of endothelial cells with VEGF inhibited the induction of both Bax and p53 as well as the activation of caspase-3. These data suggest that VEGF inhibits LPS-induced endothelial apoptosis by blocking pathways that lead to caspase activation. 相似文献

Inducible heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) is one of the most important HSPs for maintenance of cell integrity during normal cellular growth as well as pathophysiological conditions. Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) is a crucial signaling transducer that regulates a diverse array of physiological and pathological processes and is essential for activating NF-kappaB signaling pathway in response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Here we report a novel mechanism of Hsp70 for preventing LPS-induced NF-kappaB activation in RAW264.7 macrophage-like cells. Our results show that Hsp70 can associate with TRAF6 physically in the TRAF-C domain and prevent TRAF6 ubiquitination. The stimulation of LPS dissociates the binding of Hsp70 and TRAF6 in a time-dependent manner. Hsp70 inhibits LPS-induced NF-kappaB signaling cascade activation in heat-shock treated as well as Hsp70 stable transfected RAW264.7 cells and subsequently decreases iNOS and COX-2 expression. Two Hsp70 mutants, Hsp70DeltaC(1-428aa) with N-terminal ATPase domain and Hsp70C(428-642aa) with C-terminal domain, lack the ability to influence TRAF6 ubiquitination and TRAF6-triggered NF-kappaB activation. Taken together, these findings indicate that Hsp70 inhibits LPS-induced NF-kappaB activation by binding TRAF6 and preventing its ubiquitination, and results in inhibition of inflammatory mediator production, which provides a new insight for analyzing the effects of Hsp70 on LPS-triggered inflammatory signal transduction pathways. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor-induced toxic liver injury results from JNK2-dependent activation of caspase-8 and the mitochondrial death pathway 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

In vitro studies of hepatocytes have implicated over-activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling as a mechanism of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF)-induced apoptosis. However, the functional significance of JNK activation and the role of specific JNK isoforms in TNF-induced hepatic apoptosis in vivo remain unclear. JNK1 and JNK2 function was, therefore, investigated in the TNF-dependent, galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide (GalN/LPS) model of liver injury. The toxin GalN converted LPS-induced JNK signaling from a transient to prolonged activation. Liver injury and mortality from GalN/LPS was equivalent in wild-type and jnk1-/- mice but markedly decreased in jnk2-/- mice. This effect was not secondary to down-regulation of TNF receptor 1 expression or TNF production. In the absence of jnk2, the caspase-dependent, TNF death pathway was blocked, as reflected by the failure of caspase-3 and -7 and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase cleavage to occur. JNK2 was critical for activation of the mitochondrial death pathway, as in jnk2-/- mice Bid cleavage and mitochondrial translocation and cytochrome c release were markedly decreased. This effect was secondary to the failure of jnk2-/- mice to activate caspase-8. Liver injury and caspase activation were similarly decreased in jnk2 null mice after GalN/TNF treatment. Ablation of jnk2 did not inhibit GalN/LPS-induced c-Jun kinase activity, although activity was completely blocked in jnk1-/- mice. Toxic liver injury is, therefore, associated with JNK over-activation and mediated by JNK2 promotion of caspase-8 activation and the TNF mitochondrial death pathway through a mechanism independent of c-Jun kinase activity. 相似文献

Resveratrol was suggested to inhibit Toll-like receptor (TLR)4-mediated activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and Toll/interleukin-1 receptor domain-containing adaptor inducing interferon-β (TRIF)–(TANK)-binding kinase 1, but the myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88–tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) pathway is not involved in this effect. However, involvement of TRAF6 in this process is still elusive since cross talk between TRIF and TRAF6 has been reported in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced signaling. Using RAW 264.7 macrophages, we determined the effect of resveratrol on LPS-induced TRAF6 expression, ubiquitination as well as activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases and Akt in order to elucidate its involvement in TLR4 signaling. LPS-induced transient elevation in TRAF6 mRNA and protein expressions is suppressed by resveratrol. LPS induces the ubiquitination of TRAF6, which has been reported to be essential for Akt activation and for transforming growth factor-β activated kinase-1–NAP kinase kinase 6 (MKK6)-mediated p38 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation. We found that resveratrol diminishes the effect of LPS on TRAF6 ubiquitination and activation of JNK and p38 MAP kinases, while it has no effect on the activation of extracellular-signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2. The effect of resveratrol on MAP kinase inhibition is significant since TRAF6 activation was reported to induce activation of JNK and p38 MAP kinase while not affecting ERK1/2. Moreover, Akt was identified previously as a direct target of TRAF6, and we found that, similarly to MAPKs, phosphorylation pattern of Akt followed the activation of TRAF6, and it was inhibited by resveratrol at all time points. Here, we provide the first evidence that resveratrol, by suppressing LPS-induced TRAF6 expression and ubiquitination, attenuates the LPS-induced TLR4–TRAF6, MAP kinase and Akt pathways that can be significant in its anti-inflammatory effects. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced activation of c-jun N-terminal kinase is mediated by TRAF2. 总被引:6,自引:1,他引:5
Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) a pro-inflammatory cytokine is an endogenous mediator of septic shock, inflammation, anti-viral responses and apoptotic cell death. TNF alpha elicits its complex biological responses through the individual or cooperative action of two TNF receptors of mol. wt 55 kDa (TNF-RI) and mol. wt 75 kDa (TNF-RII). To determine signaling events specific for TNF-RII we fused the extracellular domain of the mouse CD4 antigen to the intracellular domain of TNF-RII. Crosslinking of the chimeric receptor using anti-CD4 antibodies initiates exclusively TNF-RII-mediated signals. Our findings show that: (i) TNF-RII is able to activate two members of the MAP kinase family: extracellular regulated kinase (ERK) and c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK); (ii) TRAF2, a molecule that binds TNF-RII and associates indirectly with TNF-RI, is sufficient to activate JNK upon overexpression; (iii) dominant-negative TRAF2 blocks TNF alpha-mediated JNK activation and (iv) TRAF2 signals the activation of JNK and NF-kappaB through different pathways. Our findings suggest that TNF alpha-mediated JNK activation in fibroblasts is independent of the cell death pathway and that TRAF2 occupies a key role in TNF receptor signaling to JNK. 相似文献

The emerging role of CD40, a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor family member, in immune regulation, disease pathogenesis, and cancer therapy necessitates the analysis of CD40 signal transduction in a wide range of tissue types. In this study we present evidence that the CD40-interacting proteins TRAF2 and TRAF6 play an important physiological role in CD40 signaling in nonhemopoietic cells. Using mutational analysis of the CD40 cytoplasmic tail, we demonstrate that the specific binding of TRAF2 to CD40 is required for efficient signaling on the NF-kappaB, Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK), and p38 axis. In fibroblasts lacking TRAF2 or in carcinoma cells in which TRAF2 has been depleted by RNA interference, the CD40-mediated activation of NF-kappaB and JNK is significantly reduced, and the activation of p38 and Akt is severely impaired. Interestingly, whereas the TRAF6-interacting membrane-proximal domain of CD40 has a minor role in signal transduction, studies utilizing TRAF6 knockout fibroblasts and RNA interference in epithelial cells reveal that the CD40-induced activation of NF-kappaB, JNK, p38, and Akt requires the integrity of TRAF6. Furthermore, we provide evidence that TRAF6 regulates CD40 signal transduction not only through its direct binding to CD40 but also indirectly via its association with TRAF2. These observations provide novel insight into the mechanisms of CD40 signaling and the multiple roles played by TRAF6 in signal transduction. 相似文献

Gram-negative bacteria release lipopolysaccharide (LPS) into the bloodstream. Here, it engages Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 expressed in human lung microvascular endothelia (HMVEC-Ls) to open the paracellular pathway through Src family kinase (SFK) activation. The signaling molecules that couple TLR4 to the SFK-driven barrier disruption are unknown. In HMVEC-Ls, siRNA-induced silencing of TIRAP/Mal and overexpression of dominant-negative TIRAP/Mal each blocked LPS-induced SFK activation and increases in transendothelial [(14)C]albumin flux, implicating the MyD88-dependent pathway. LPS increased TRAF6 autoubiquitination and binding to IRAK1. Silencing of TRAF6, TRAF6-dominant-negative overexpression, or preincubation of HMVEC-Ls with a cell-permeable TRAF6 decoy peptide decreased both LPS-induced SFK activation and barrier disruption. LPS increased binding of both c-Src and Fyn to GST-TRAF6 but not to a GST-TRAF6 mutant in which the three prolines in the putative Src homology 3 domain-binding motif (amino acids 461-469) were substituted with alanines. A cell-permeable decoy peptide corresponding to the same proline-rich motif reduced SFK binding to WT GST-TRAF6 compared with the Pro → Ala-substituted peptide. Finally, LPS increased binding of activated Tyr(P)(416)-SFK to GST-TRAF6, and preincubation of HMVEC-Ls with SFK-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitors, PP2 and SU6656, diminished TRAF6 binding to c-Src and Fyn. During the TRAF6-SFK association, TRAF6 catalyzed Lys(63)-linked ubiquitination of c-Src and Fyn, whereas SFK activation increased tyrosine phosphorylation of TRAF6. The TRAF6 decoy peptide blocked both LPS-induced SFK ubiquitination and TRAF6 phosphorylation. Together, these data indicate that the proline-rich Src homology 3 domain-binding motif in TRAF6 interacts directly with activated SFKs to couple LPS engagement of TLR4 to SFK activation and loss of barrier integrity in HMVEC-Ls. 相似文献

Protein kinase PKN1 associates with TRAF2 and is involved in TRAF2-NF-kappaB signaling pathway 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

PKN1 is a fatty acid and Rho-activated serine/threonine protein kinase whose catalytic domain is highly homologous to protein kinase C (PKC) family. In yeast two-hybrid screening for PKN1 binding proteins, we identified tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2). TRAF2 is one of the major mediators of TNF receptor superfamily transducing TNF signal to various functional targets, including activation of NF-kappaB, JNK, and apoptosis. FLAG-tagged PKN1 was co-immunoprecipitated with endogenous TRAF2 from HEK293 cell lysate, and in vitro binding assay using the deletion mutants of TRAF2 showed that PKN1 directly binds to the TRAF domain of TRAF2. PKN1 has the TRAF2-binding consensus sequences PXQX (S/T) at amino acid residues 580-584 (PIQES), and P580AQ582A mutant was not co-immunoprecipitated with TRAF2. Furthermore, the reduced expression of PKN1 by RNA interference (RNAi) down-regulated TRAF2-induced NF-kappaB activation in HEK293T cells. These results suggest that PKN1 is involved in TRAF2-NF-kappaB signaling pathway. 相似文献

We previously reported that Schwann cells undergo apoptosis after serum withdrawal. Insulin-like growth factor-I, via phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase, inhibits caspase activation and rescues Schwann cells from serum withdrawal-induced apoptosis. In this study, we examined the role of c-jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) in Schwann cell apoptosis induced by serum withdrawal. Activation of both JNK1 and JNK2 was detected 1 h after serum withdrawal with the maximal level detected at 2 h. A dominant negative JNK mutant, JNK (APF), blocked JNK activation induced by serum withdrawal and Schwann cell apoptosis, suggesting JNK activation participates in Schwann cell apoptosis. Serum withdrawal-induced JNK activity was caspase dependent and inhibited by a caspase 3 inhibitor, Ac-DEVD-CHO. Because insulin-like growth factor-I and Bcl-X(L) are both Schwann cell survival factors, we tested their effects on JNK activation during apoptosis. Insulin-like growth factor-I treatment decreased both JNK1 and JNK2 activity induced by serum withdrawal. LY294002, a phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase inhibitor, blocked insulin-like growth factor-I inhibition on JNK activation, suggesting that phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase mediates the effects of insulin-like growth factor-I. Overexpression of Bcl-X(L) also resulted in less Schwann cell death and inhibition of JNK activation after serum withdrawal. Collectively, these results suggest JNK activation is involved in Schwann cell apoptosis induced by serum withdrawal. Insulin-like growth factor-I and Bcl family proteins rescue Schwann cells, at least in part, by inhibition of JNK activity. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF) receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2) is one of the major mediators of TNF receptor superfamily transducing TNF signaling to various functional targets, including activation of NF-kappa B, JNK, and antiapoptosis. We investigated how TRAF2 mediates differentially the distinct downstream signals. We now report a novel mechanism of TRAF2-mediated signal transduction revealed by an association of TRAF2 with sphingosine kinase (SphK), a lipid kinase that is responsible for the production of sphingosine 1-phosphate. We identified a TRAF2-binding motif of SphK that mediated the interaction between TRAF2 and SphK resulting in the activation of the enzyme, which in turn is required for TRAF2-mediated activation of NF-kappa B but not JNK. In addition, by using a kinase inactive dominant-negative SphK and a mutant SphK that lacks TRAF2-binding motif we show that the interaction of TRAF2 with SphK and subsequent activation of SphK are critical for prevention of apoptosis during TNF stimulation. These findings show a role for SphK in the signal transduction by TRAF2 specifically leading to activation of NF-kappa B and antiapoptosis. 相似文献
