A polyomavirus mutant (315YF) blocked in binding phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) has previously been shown to be partially deficient in transformation and to induce fewer tumors and with a significant delay compared to wild-type virus. The role of polyomavirus middle T antigen-activated PI 3-kinase in apoptosis was investigated as a possible cause of this behavior. When grown in medium containing 1d-3-deoxy-3-fluoro-myo-inositol to block formation of 3′-phosphorylated phosphatidylinositols, F111 rat fibroblasts transformed by wild-type polyomavirus (PyF), but not normal F111 cells, showed a marked loss of viability with evidence of apoptosis. Similarly, treatment with wortmannin, an inhibitor of PI 3-kinase, stimulated apoptosis in PyF cells but not in normal cells. Activation of Akt, a serine/threonine kinase whose activity has been correlated with regulation of apoptosis, was roughly twofold higher in F111 cells transformed by either wild-type virus or mutant 250YS blocked in binding Shc compared to cells transformed by mutant 315YF. In the same cells, levels of apoptosis were inversely correlated with Akt activity. Apoptosis induced by serum withdrawal in Rat-1 cells expressing a temperature-sensitive p53 was shown to be at least partially p53 independent. Expression of either wild-type or 250YS middle T antigen inhibited apoptosis in serum-starved Rat-1 cells at both permissive and restrictive temperatures for p53. Mutant 315YF middle T antigen was partially defective for inhibition of apoptosis in these cells. The results indicate that unlike other DNA tumor viruses which block apoptosis by inactivation of p53, polyomavirus achieves protection from apoptotic death through a middle T antigen–PI 3-kinase–Akt pathway that is at least partially p53 independent.Programmed cell death occurs during normal development and under certain pathological conditions. In mammalian cells, apoptosis can be induced by a variety of stimuli, including DNA damage (45), virus infection (54, 57), oncogene activation (25), and serum withdrawal (34, 37). Apoptosis can also be blocked by a number of factors, including adenovirus E1B 55- or 19-kDa proteins (9, 16), baculovirus p35 and iap genes (10), Bcl-2 (36, 61), and survival factors (12, 21). DNA tumor viruses have evolved mechanisms that both trigger and inhibit apoptosis. These frequently involve binding and inactivation of tumor suppressor proteins. E7 in some papillomaviruses (22), E1A in adenovirus (31, 43, 64), and large T antigen in simian virus 40 (SV40) (17) bind Rb and/or p300 and lead to upregulation of p53, which is thought to trigger apoptosis in virus-infected cells. The same viruses also inhibit apoptosis by inactivating p53 by various mechanisms (44, 63, 67). In contrast, the mechanism by which polyomavirus interacts with apoptotic pathways in the cell is not known; no direct interaction with p53 by any of the proteins encoded by this virus has been demonstrated (19, 62).The principal oncoprotein of polyomavirus is the middle T antigen. Neoplastic transformation by polyomavirus middle T antigen has as a central feature its association with and activation of members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases p60c-src (13) and p62c-yes (42). The major known consequence of these interactions is phosphorylation of middle T antigen on specific tyrosine residues creating binding sites for other signaling proteins. Phosphorylation at tyrosines 250, 315, and 322 promotes binding to Shc (18), the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) (59), and phospholipase Cγ-1 (58), respectively. Recognition of multiple signaling pathways emanating from middle T antigen has led to a keen interest in identifying their downstream biochemical effects, which collectively lead to the emergence of neoplastic transformation and presumably underlie the dramatic ability of the virus to induce many kinds of tumors in the mouse.Previous work has shown that the binding of PI 3-kinase to middle T antigen is essential for full transformation of rat fibroblasts in culture (8) and for rapid development of a broad spectrum of tumors in mice (30), for translocation of the GLUT1 transporter (68), and activation of p70 S6 kinase (14). While the mutant 315YF (blocked in PI 3-kinase activation) was able to induce some tumors, it did so at reduced frequencies and with an average latency three times longer than that of either the wild-type virus or a mutant, 250YS, blocked in binding Shc (4, 30). Recent studies have indicated a role of PI 3-kinase in blocking apoptosis in nonviral systems. Growth factor receptors acting through protein tyrosine kinases may prevent apoptosis by activating PI 3-kinase in PC12 cells, T lymphocytes, hematopoietic progenitors, and rat fibroblasts (7, 48, 56, 65, 66). The failure of mutant 315YF to induce full transformation of cells in culture and to induce the rapid development of tumors in mice could therefore be related, at least in part, to a failure to block apoptosis. In this study, we focus on the question of whether middle T antigen–PI 3-kinase interaction is involved in blocking apoptosis in cells transformed by polyomavirus. 相似文献
