Recently, we have reported that CacyBP/SIP could be a novel phosphatase for ERK1/2 kinase. In this work, we analyzed the CacyBP/SIP phosphatase activity toward ERK1/2 in 2 cell lines of different origin. We showed that overexpression of CacyBP/SIP in NB2a cells resulted in a lower level of phosphorylated ERK1/2 (P-ERK1/2) in the nuclear fraction while such overexpression in HCT116 cells had no effect on the level of P-ERK1/2. Moreover, we found that overexpression of CacyBP/SIP resulted in higher phosphatase activity in the nuclear fraction obtained from NB2a cells when compared with HCT116 cells. Using 2-D electrophoresis we showed that the pattern of spots representing CacyBP/SIP differed in these 2 cell lines and was probably due to a different phosphorylation state of this protein. We also established that after overexpression of CacyBP/SIP in NB2a cells, the amount of nuclear β-catenin was low, while it remained high in HCT116 cells. Since NB2a cells have differentiation potential and HCT116 cells do not, our data suggest that different activity of CacyBP/SIP in these 2 cell lines might affect the ERK1/2 pathway in the differentiation or proliferation processes. 相似文献

NBS1 is a member of the Mre11–Rad50–NBS1 complex, which plays a role in cellular responses to DNA damage and the maintenance of genomic stability. Transgenic mice models and clinical symptoms of NBS patients have shown that NBS1 exerts pleiotropic actions on the growth and development of mammals. The present study showed that after repression of endogenous NBS1 levels using short interfering RNA, hTERT-RPE cells demonstrated impaired proliferation and a poor response to IGF-1. NBS1 down-regulated cells displayed disturbances in periodical oscillations of cyclin E and A and delayed cell cycle progression. Remarkably, lower phosphorylation levels of c-Raf and diminished activity of Erk1/2 in response to IGF-1 suggest a link among NBS1, IGF-1 signaling and the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK cascade. The functional relevance of NBS1 in mitogenic signaling and initiation of cell cycle progression were demonstrated in NBS1 down-regulated cells where IGF-1 had a limited ability to induce the FOS and CCND1 expressions. In conclusion, our findings provide strong evidence that NBS1 has a functional role in IGF-1 signaling for the promotion of cell proliferation via the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK cascade. 相似文献

Recently the rice (Oryza sativa L.) OsPR1a and OsPR1b genes were primarily characterized against jasmonic acid, ethylene and protein phosphatase 2A inhibitors. The dicot PR1 are recognized as reliable marker genes in defence/stress responses, and we also propose OsPR1 as marker genes in rice, a model monocot crop genus. Therefore, to gain further insight into the expression/regulation of OsPR1 genes, we characterized their activation against signalling molecules such as salicylic acid (SA), abscisic acid (ABA) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the blast pathogen Magnaporthe grisea. Here, we report that SA and H2O2 strongly induced the mRNA level of both OsPR1 genes, whereas ABA was found to be moderately effective. These inductions were specific in nature and required a de novo synthesized protein factor. A potential interaction amongst the signalling molecules in modulating the expression of OsPR1 genes was observed. Moreover, a specific induction of OsPR1 expression in an incompatible versus compatible host-pathogen interaction was also found. Finally, based on our present and previous results, a model of OsPR1 expression/regulation has been proposed, which reveals their essential role in defence/stress responses in rice and use as potent gene markers. 相似文献

Calcyclin (S100A6) binding protein/Siah‐1 interacting protein (CacyBP/SIP) is mainly a cytoplasmic protein; however, some literature data suggested its presence in the nucleus. In this work we examined more precisely the nuclear localization and function of CacyBP/SIP. By applying mass spectrometry, we have identified several nuclear proteins, among them is nucleophosmin (NPM1), that may interact with CacyBP/SIP. Subsequent assays revealed that CacyBP/SIP forms complexes with NPM1 in the cell and that the interaction between these two proteins is direct. Interestingly, although CacyBP/SIP exhibits phosphatase activity, we have found that its overexpression favors phosphorylation of NPM1 on S125. In turn, the RNA immunoprecipitation assay indicated that the altered CacyBP/SIP level has an impact on the amount of 28S and 18S rRNA bound to NPM1. The overexpression of CacyBP/SIP resulted in a significant increase in the binding of 28S and 18S rRNA to NPM1, whereas silencing of CacyBP/SIP expression decreased 28S rRNA binding and had no effect on the binding of 18S rRNA. Further studies have shown that under oxidative stress, CacyBP/SIP overexpression alters NPM1 distribution in cell nuclei. In addition, staining for a nucleolar marker, fibrillarin, revealed that CacyBP/SIP is indispensable for maintaining the nucleolar structure. These results are in agreement with data obtained by western blot analysis, which show that upon oxidative stress the NPM1 level decreases but that CacyBP/SIP overexpression counteracts the effect of stress. Altogether, our results show for the first time that CacyBP/SIP binds to and affects the properties of a nuclear protein, NPM1, and that it is indispensable for preserving the structure of nucleoli under oxidative stress. 相似文献

Roles of mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways during <Emphasis Type="Italic">Escherichia coli-</Emphasis>induced apoptosis in U937 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Escherichia coli (E. coli) infections play an important and growing role in the clinic. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of members
of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) superfamily, including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 MAPK, and caspase-3 and 9 activity in E. coli-induced apoptosis in human U937 cells. We found that E. coli induces apoptosis in U937 cell lines in a dose- and time-dependent manner, p38 MAPK and JNK were activated after 10 min of
infection with E. coli. In contrast, ERK1/2 was down-regulated in a time-dependent manner. The levels of total (phosphorylation state-independent)
p38 MAPK, JNK and ERK1/2 did not change in E. coli-infected U937 cells at all times examined. Moreover, exposure of U937 cells to E. coli led to caspase-3 and 9 activity. For the evaluation of the role of MAPKs, PD98059, SB203580 and SP600125 were used as MAPKs
inhibitors for ERK1/2, p38 MAPK and JNK. Inhibition of ERK1/2 with PD98059 caused further enhancement in apoptosis and caspase-3
and 9 activity, while a selective p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580 and JNK inhibitor, SP600125 significantly inhibited E. coli-induced apoptosis and caspase-3 and 9 activity in U937 cells. The results were further confirmed by the observation that
the caspase inhibitors Z-DEVD-FMK and Z-LEHD-FMK blocked E. coli-induced U937 apoptosis. Taken together, we have shown that E. coli increase p38 MAPK and JNK and decrease ERK1/2 phosphorylation and increase caspase-3 and 9 activity in U937 cells. 相似文献

The pro-apoptotic BH3 only protein BIMEL is phosphorylated by ERK1/2 and this targets it for proteasome-dependent degradation. A recent study has shown that ERK5, an ERK1/2-related MAPK, is activated during mitosis and phosphorylates BIMEL to promote cell survival. Here we show that treatment of cells with nocodazole or paclitaxel does cause phosphorylation of BIMEL, which is independent of ERK1/2. However, this was not due to ERK5-catalysed phosphorylation, since it was not reversed by the MEK5 inhibitor BIX02189 and proceeded normally in ERK5−/− fibroblasts. Indeed, although ERK5 is phosphorylated at multiple sites in the C-terminal transactivation region during mitosis, these do not include the activation-loop and ERK5 kinase activity does not increase. Mitotic phosphorylation of BIMEL occurred at proline-directed phospho-acceptor sites and was abolished by selective inhibition of CDK1. Furthermore, cyclin B1 was able to interact with BIM and cyclin B1/CDK1 complexes could phosphorylate BIM in vitro. Finally, we show that CDK1-dependent phosphorylation of BIMEL drives its polyubiquitylation and proteasome-dependent degradation to protect cells during mitotic arrest. These results provide new insights into the regulation of BIMEL and may be relevant to the therapeutic use of agents such as paclitaxel. 相似文献

We previously reported that cyclic compressive force (CCF) induced interleukin-6 mRNA expression in osteocyte-like MLO-Y4 cells. But little is known about how the stimuli are converted into the biochemical signals in MLO-Y4 cells. The aim of this research was to study the effect of CCF on the IL-6 secretion and the role of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) in this process. The cells were exposed to CCF with different magnitudes (1000, 2000 and 4000 μstrain), frequencies (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 Hz) and durations (10 min, 30 min, 1 h, 3 h and 6 h) by a four-point bending system. The IL-6 secretion and ERK1/2 phosphorylation of the cells were determined by ELISA and Western blotting, respectively. The results showed that IL-6 protein secretion was significantly up-regulated in response to CCF in a magnitude-, frequency- and duration-dependent fashion. The phosphorylation of ERK1/2 also increased in all cases but not depended on the magnitude, frequency or duration of CCF. Furthermore, the inhibition of the ERK1/2 pathway by its specific inhibitor PD098059 decreased but not completely abrogated the IL-6 secretion from stressed MLO-Y4 cells. These findings demonstrate that CCF-induced IL-6 secretion occurs via a mechanism that involves ERK1/2 signaling pathway and suggest that modulation of this event contributes to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis and stress-induced pathological bone resorption as well. 相似文献

Summary While arsenic trioxide (As2O3) is an infamous carcinogen, it is also an effective chemotherapeutic agent for acute promyelocytic leukemia and some solid
tumors. In human epidermoid carcinoma A431 cells, we found that As2O3 induced cell death in time- and dose-dependent manners. Similarly, dependent regulation of the p21
WAF1/CIP1 (p21) promoter, mRNA synthesis, and resultant protein expression was also observed. Additionally, transfection of a small
interfering RNA of p21 could block the As2O3-induced cell growth arrest. The As2O3-induced p21 activation was attenuated by inhibitors of EGFR and MEK in a dose-dependent manner. Using a reporter assay, we
demonstrated the involvement of the EGFR-Ras-Raf-ERK1/2 pathway in the promoter activation. In contrast, JNK inhibitor enhanced
the As2O3-induced p21 activation, also in a dose-dependent fashion. Over-expression of a dominant negative JNK plasmid likewise also
enhanced this activation. Furthermore, MEK inhibitor attenuated the anti-tumor effect of As2O3. In contrast, in combination with JNK inhibitor and As2O3 enhanced cellular cytotoxicity. Therefore, we conclude that in A431 cells the ERK1/2 and JNK pathways might differentially
contribute to As2O3-induced p21 expression and then due to cellular cytotoxicity. 相似文献

The obesity is a result of energy imbalance and the increase in thermogenesis seems an interesting alternative for the treatment of this disease. The mechanism of energy expenditure through thermogenesis is tightly articulated in the hypothalamus by leptin. The hypothalamic extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 (ERK1/2) is a key mediator of the thermoregulatory effect of leptin and mediates the sympathetic signal to the brown adipose tissue (BAT). In this context, physical exercise is one of the main interventions for the treatment of obesity. Thus, this study aimed to verify the effects of acute physical exercise on leptin-induced hypothalamic ERK1/2 phosphorylation and thermogenesis in obese mice. Here we showed that acute physical exercise reduced the fasting glucose of obese mice and increased leptin-induced hypothalamic p-ERK1/2 and uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) content in BAT ( P < 0.05). These molecular changes are accompanied by an increased oxygen uptake (VO 2) and heat production in obese exercised mice ( P < 0.05). The increased energy expenditure in the obese exercised animals occurred independently of changes in spontaneous activity. Thus, this is the first study demonstrating that acute physical exercise can increase leptin-induced hypothalamic ERK1/2 phosphorylation and energy expenditure of obese mice. 相似文献

DUSP5 is an inducible, nuclear, dual-specificity phosphatase, which specifically interacts with and inactivates the ERK1/2 MAP kinases in mammalian cells. In addition, expression of DUSP5 causes nuclear translocation of ERK2 indicating that it may act as a nuclear anchor for the inactive kinase. Here we show that induction of DUSP5 mRNA and protein in response to growth factors is dependent on ERK1/2 activation and that the accumulation of DUSP5 protein is regulated by rapid proteasomal degradation. DUSP5 is phosphorylated by ERK1/2 both in vitro and in vivo on three sites (Thr321, Ser346 and Ser376) within its C-terminal domain. DUSP5 phosphorylation is absolutely dependent on the conserved kinase interaction motif (KIM) within the amino-terminal domain of DUSP5, indicating that the same protein–protein contacts are required for both the inactivation of ERK2 by DUSP5 and for DUSP5 to act as a substrate for this MAPK. Using a combination of pharmacological inhibitors and phospho-site mutants we can find no evidence that phosphorylation of DUSP5 by ERK2 significantly affects either the half-life of the DUSP5 protein or its ability to bind to, inactivate or anchor ERK2 in the nucleus. However, co-expression of ERK2 results in significant stabilisation of DUSP5, which is accompanied by reduced levels of DUSP5 ubiquitination. These changes are independent of ERK2 kinase activity but absolutely depend on the ability of ERK2 to bind to DUSP5. We conclude that DUSP5 is stabilised by complex formation with its physiological substrate and that this may reinforce its activity as both a phosphatase and nuclear anchor for ERK2. 相似文献

The extracellular signal-regulated kinase/mitogen-activated protein kinase (ERK/MAPK) pathway is a highly conserved signaling pathway that regulates diverse cellular processes including differentiation, proliferation, and survival. Kinase suppressor of Ras-1 (KSR1) binds each of the three ERK cascade components to facilitate pathway activation. Even though KSR1 contains a C-terminal kinase domain, evidence supporting the catalytic function of KSR1 remains controversial. In this study, we produced recombinant wild-type or kinase-inactive (D683A/D700A) KSR1 proteins in Escherichia coli to test the hypothesis that KSR1 is a functional protein kinase. Recombinant wild-type KSR1, but not recombinant kinase-inactive KSR1, underwent autophosphorylation on serine residue(s), phosphorylated myelin basic protein (MBP) as a generic substrate, and phosphorylated recombinant kinase-inactive MAPK/ERK kinase-1 (MEK1). Furthermore, FLAG immunoprecipitates from KSR1−/− colon epithelial cells stably expressing FLAG-tagged wild-type KSR1 (+KSR1), but not vector (+vector) or FLAG-tagged kinase-inactive KSR1 (+D683A/D700A), were able to phosphorylate kinase-inactive MEK1. Since TNF activates the ERK pathway in colon epithelial cells, we tested the biological effects of KSR1 in the survival response downstream of TNF. We found that +vector and +D683A/D700A cells underwent apoptosis when treated with TNF, whereas +KSR1 cells were resistant. However, +KSR1 cells were sensitized to TNF-induced cell loss in the absence of MEK kinase activity. These data provide clear evidence that KSR1 is a functional protein kinase, MEK1 is an in vitro substrate of KSR1, and the catalytic activities of both proteins are required for eliciting cell survival responses downstream of TNF. 相似文献

We have previously shown that trophic factor supplementation (TFS) of University of Wisconsin (UW) solution reduced early apoptotic changes in vascular endothelial cells. Here, we examine the effect of TFS on cell signaling pathways related to cell growth, differentiation, and apoptosis after cold ischemic storage. In this study, the effect of TFS on the phosphorylation of signaling molecules ERK (extracellular regulated-signaling kinase) 1/2 and p38 MAPK (mitogen activated protein kinases) and of HO-1 (hemeoxygenase-1), relative to changes seen in unmodified UW solution, were determined by Western blot in cells stored under cold ischemic conditions. Primary cultures of canine kidney proximal tubule cells (CKPTC) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) were used in this study. There was a significant decrease, relative to UW solution, after 1 min rewarming in ERK 1 and 2 activity in CKPTCs. For p38 MAPK, a significant decrease after 5 min rewarming was seen in CKPTC (p < 0.05) while significant reductions relative to UW solution were seen in HUVECs after both 1 and 5 min rewarming (p < 0.05). Phosphorylated HO-1 was also decreased by 43% and 50% in HUVECs, relative to UW solution, after 1 and 5 min rewarming (p < 0.05 at each time point). Collectively, TFS not only limits ERK 1/2 and p38 MAPK activity induced by cold ischemic injury and subsequent rewarming, but also substantially restricted increases in HO-1 phosphorylation. 相似文献

We have shown earlier a requirement for Ca2+ and calmodulin (CaM) in the H2O2-induced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) and protein kinase B (PKB), key mediators of growth-promoting, proliferative, and hypertrophic responses in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Because the effect of CaM is mediated through CaM-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII), we have investigated here the potential role of CaMKII in H2O2-induced ERK1/2 and PKB phosphorylation by using pharmacological inhibitors of CaM and CaMKII, a CaMKII inhibitor peptide, and siRNA knockdown strategies for CaMKIIα. Calmidazolium and W-7, antagonists of CaM, as well as KN-93, a specific inhibitor of CaMKII, attenuated H2O2-induced responses of ERK1/2 and PKB phosphorylation in a dose-dependent fashion. Similar to H2O2, calmidazolium and KN-93 also exhibited an inhibitory effect on glucose/glucose oxidase-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and PKB in these cells. Transfection of VSMC with CaMKII autoinhibitory peptide corresponding to the autoinhibitory domain (aa 281–309) of CaMKII and with siRNA of CaMKIIα attenuated the H2O2-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and PKB. In addition, calmidazolium and KN-93 blocked H2O2-induced Pyk2 and insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) phosphorylation. Moreover, treatment of VSMC with CaMKIIα siRNA abolished the H2O2-induced IGF-1R phosphorylation. H2O2 treatment also induced Thr286 phosphorylation of CaMKII, which was inhibited by both calmidazolium and KN-93. These results demonstrate that CaMKII plays a critical upstream role in mediating the effects of H2O2 on ERK1/2, PKB, and IGF-1R phosphorylation. 相似文献

Mitochondrial extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) are modulated during brain development 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Intracellular activation and trafficking of extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases (ERK) play a significant role in cell cycle progression, contributing to developmental brain activities. Additionally, mitochondria participate in cell signalling through energy-linked functions, redox metabolism and activation of pro- or anti-apoptotic proteins. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the presence of ERK1/2 in mitochondria during rat brain development. Immunoblotting, immune electron microscopy and activity assays demonstrated that ERK1/2 are present in fully active brain mitochondria at the outer membrane/intermembrane space fraction. Besides, it was observed that ERK1/2 translocation to brain mitochondria follows a developmental pattern which is maximal between E19-P2 stages and afterwards declines at P3, just before maximal translocation to nucleus, and up to adulthood. Most of mitochondrial ERK1/2 were active; upstream phospho-MAPK/ERK kinases (MEK1/2) were also detected in the brain organelles. Mitochondrial phospho-ERK1/2 increased at 1 microm hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) concentration, but it decreased at higher 50-100 microm H(2)O(2), almost disappearing after the organelles were maximally stimulated to produce H(2)O(2) with antimycin. Our results suggest that developmental mitochondrial activation of ERK1/2 cascade contributes to its nuclear translocation effects, providing information about mitochondrial energetic and redox status to the proliferating/differentiating nuclear pathways. 相似文献

AngiotensinII (AngII) induces vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation, which plays an important role in the development and progression of hypertension. AngII-induced cellular events have been implicated, in part, in the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2). In the present study, we investigated the effect of Ib, a novel nonpeptide AngII receptor type 1 (AT1) antagonist, on the activation of PKC and ERK1/2 in VSMC proliferation induced by AngII. MTT, and [3H]thymidine incorporation assay showed that AngII-induced VSMC proliferation was inhibited significantly by Ib. The specific binding of [125I]AngII to AT1 receptors was blocked by Ib in a concentration-dependent manner with IC50 value of 0.96 nM. PKC activity assay and Western blot analysis demonstrated that Ib significantly inhibited the activation of PKC and phosphorylation of ERK1/2 induced by AngII, respectively. Furthermore, AngII-induced ERK1/2 activation was obviously blocked by GF109203X, a PKC inhibitor. These findings suggest that the suppression of Ib on AngII-induced VSMC proliferation may be attributed to its inhibitory effect on PKC-dependent ERK1/2 pathway. 相似文献

Insulin (INS) via INS receptor acts as a mitogen in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through stimulation of multiple signaling mechanisms, including p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (ERK1/2) and phosphatidyl inositol-3 kinase (PI3K). In addition, cytosolic phospholipase 2 (cPLA2) is linked to VSMCs proliferation. However, the upstream mechanisms responsible for activation of cPLA2 are not well defined. Therefore, this investigation used primary cultured rat VSMCs to examine the role of PI3K and ERK1/2 in the INS-dependent phosphorylation of cPLA2 and proliferation induced by INS. Exposure of VSMCs to INS (100 nM) for 10 min increased the phosphorylation of cPLA2 by 1.5-fold (p < 0.01), which was blocked by the cPLA2 inhibitor MAFP (10 μM; 15 min). Similarly, the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 (10 μM; 15 min) and ERK1/2 inhibitor PD98059 (20 μM; 15 min) abolished the INS-mediated increase in cPLA2 phosphorylation by 59% (p < 0.001), and by 75% (p < 0.001), respectively. Further, inhibition of cPLA2 with cPLA2 inhibitor MAFP abolished the INS-stimulated ERK1/2 phosphorylation by 65% (p < 0.01). Incubation of rat VSMCs with INS resulted in an increase of VSMCs proliferation by 85% (p < 0.001). The effect of INS on VSMCs proliferation was significantly (p < 0.01) reduced by pretreatment with MAFP. Thus, we hypothesized that INS stimulates VSMCs proliferation via a mechanism involving the PI3K-dependent activation of cPLA2 and release of arachidonic acid (AA), which activates ERK1/2 and further amplifies cPLA2 activity. 相似文献

Background information. Activation of MAPKs (mitogen‐activated protein kinases), in particular ERK1/2 (extracellular‐signal‐regulated kinase 1/2), has been reported to take place in a large variety of cell types after hypo‐osmotic cell swelling. Depending on cell type, ERK1/2 phosphorylation can then serve or not the RVD (regulatory volume decrease) process. The present study investigates ERK1/2 activation after aniso‐osmotic stimulations in turbot hepatocytes and the potential link between phosphorylation of these proteins and RVD. Results. In turbot hepatocytes, Western‐blot analysis shows that a hypo‐osmotic shock from 320 to 240 mOsm·kg?1 induced a rapid increase in ERK1/2 phosphorylation, whereas a hyper‐osmotic shock from 320 to 400 mOsm·kg?1 induced no significant change in the phosphorylation of these proteins. The hypo‐osmotic‐induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation was significantly prevented when hypo‐osmotic shock was performed in the presence of the specific MEK (MAPK/ERK kinase) inhibitor PD98059 (100 μM). In these conditions, the RVD process was not altered, suggesting that ERK1/2 did not participate in this process in turbot hepatocytes. Moreover, the hypo‐osmotic‐induced activation of ERK1/2 was significantly prevented by breakdown of extracellular ATP by apyrase (10 units·ml?1), by inhibition of purinergic P2 receptors by suramin (100 μM) or by calcium depletion using EGTA (1 mM) and thapsigargin (1 μM). Conclusions. In turbot hepatocytes, hypo‐osmotic swelling but not hyper‐osmotic shrinkage induced the activation of ERK1/2. However, these proteins do not seem to be involved in the RVD process. Their hypo‐osmotic‐induced activation is partially due to cascades of signalling events triggered by the binding of released ATP on purinergic P2 receptors and requires the presence of calcium. 相似文献
