Interleukin-6 (IL-6) activates the Jak/STAT pathway as well as the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. Tyrosine 759 of the IL-6 signal-transducing receptor subunit gp130 has been identified as being involved in negative regulation of IL-6-induced gene induction and activation of the Jak/STAT pathway. Because this site is known to be a recruitment motif for the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP2, it has been suggested that SHP2 is the mediator of tyrosine 759-dependent signal attenuation. We recently observed that the suppressor of cytokine-signaling SOCS3 also acts through the tyrosine motif 759 of gp130. However, the relative contributions of SHP2 and SOCS3 to the repression of IL-6 signaling are not understood. Therefore, we designed experiments allowing the independent recruitment of each of these proteins to the IL-6-receptor complex. We show that receptor- and membrane-targeted SHP2 counteracts IL-6 signaling independent of SOCS3 binding to gp130. On the other hand, SOCS3 inhibits signaling in cells expressing a truncated SHP2 protein, which is not recruited to gp130. These data suggest, that there are two, largely distinct modes of negative regulation of gp130 activity, despite the fact that both SOCS3 and SHP2 are recruited to the same site within gp130.  相似文献

Recently, it has been demonstrated that TNF-alpha and LPS induce the expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) and inhibit IL-6-induced STAT3 activation in macrophages. Inhibitor studies suggested that both induction of SOCS3 and inhibition of IL-6-induced STAT3 activation depend on the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. Since recruitment of the tyrosine phosphatase Src homology protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) to the signal-transducing receptor subunit gp130 attenuates IL-6-mediated STAT-activation, we were interested in whether TNF-alpha also induces the association of SHP2 to the gp130 receptor subunit. In this study we demonstrate that stimulation of macrophages and fibroblast cell lines with TNF-alpha causes the recruitment of SHP2 to the gp130 signal-transducing subunit and leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP2 and gp130. In this context the cytoplasmic SHP2/SOCS3 recruitment site of gp130 tyrosine 759 is shown to be important for the inhibitory effects of TNF-alpha, since mutation of this residue completely restores IL-6-stimulated activation of STAT3 and, consequently, of a STAT3-dependent promoter. In this respect murine fibroblasts lacking exon 3 of SHP2 are not sensitive to TNF-alpha, indicating that functional SHP2 and its recruitment to gp130 are key events in inhibition of IL-6-dependent STAT activation by TNF-alpha. Furthermore, activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase is shown to be essential for the inhibitory effect of TNF-alpha on IL-6 signaling and TNF-alpha-dependent recruitment of SHP2 to gp130.  相似文献

In recent years, the elucidation of the structures of many signalling molecules has allowed new insights into the molecular mechanisms that govern signal transduction events. In the field of cytokine signalling, the solved structures of cytokine/receptor complexes and of key components involved in signal transduction such as STAT factors or the tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 have broadened our understanding of the molecular basis of the signalling events and provided key information for the rational design of therapeutic approaches to modulate or block cytokine signal transduction. Unfortunately, no structural data on the intracellular parts of cytokine receptors are available. The exact molecular mechanism underlying one of the first steps in signal transduction, namely the recruitment of signalling components to the cytoplasmic parts of cytokine receptors, remains elusive. Here we investigated possible mechanisms underlying the different potency of the STAT3-activating motifs of gp130 after IL-6 stimulation. Our data indicate that the extent of STAT3 activation by the different receptor motifs is not influenced by structural features such as contacts between the two gp130 chains. In addition, the proximity of the negatively regulating motif around tyrosine Y759 to the different STAT3-recruiting motifs does not seem to be responsible for their differential capacity to activate STAT3. However, the potency of a specific motif to activate STAT3 directly reflects the affinity for the binding of STAT3 to this motif.  相似文献

Signals propagated via the gp130 subunit of the interleukin-6 (IL-6)-type cytokine receptors mediate, among various cellular responses, proliferation of hematopoietic cells and induction of acute-phase plasma protein (APP) genes in hepatic cells. Hematopoietic growth control by gp130 is critically dependent on activation of both STAT3 and protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP-2). To investigate whether induction of APP genes has a similar requirement for SHP-2, we constructed two chimeric receptors, G-gp130 and G-gp130(Y2F), consisting of the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains of gp130 harboring either a wild-type or a mutated SHP-2 binding site, respectively, fused to the extracellular domain of the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) receptor. Rat hepatoma H-35 cells stably expressing the chimeric receptors were generated by retroviral transduction. Both chimeric receptors transmitted a G-CSF-induced signal characteristic of that triggered by IL-6 through the endogenous gp130 receptor; i.e., both activated the appropriate JAK, induced DNA binding activity by STAT1 and STAT3, and up-regulated expression of the target APP genes, those for α-fibrinogen and haptoglobin. Notwithstanding these similarities in the patterns of signaling responses elicited, mutation of the SHP-2 interaction site in G-gp130(Y2F) abrogated ligand-activated receptor recruitment of SHP-2 as expected. Moreover, the tyrosine phosphorylation state of the chimeric receptor, the associated JAK activity, and the induced DNA binding activity of STAT1 and STAT3 were maintained at elevated levels and for an extended period of time in G-gp130(Y2F)-expressing cells following G-CSF treatment compared to that in cells displaying the G-gp130 receptor. H-35 cells ectopically expressing G-gp130(Y2F) were also found to display an enhanced sensitivity to G-CSF and a higher level of induction of APP genes. Overexpression of the enzymatically inactive SHP-2 enhanced the signaling by the wild-type but not by the Y2F mutant G-gp130 receptor. These results indicate that gp130 signaling for APP gene induction in hepatic cells differs qualitatively from that controlling the proliferative response in hematopoietic cells in not being strictly dependent on SHP-2. The data further suggest that SHP-2 functions normally to attenuate gp130-mediated signaling in hepatic (and, perhaps, other) cells by moderating JAK action.  相似文献

A tripartite receptor comprising the external region of the erythropoietin (Epo) receptor, the transmembrane and JAK-binding domains of the gp130 subunit of the interleukin-6 (IL-6) receptor, and a seven amino acid STAT1 recruitment motif (Y440) from the interferon (IFN)-gamma receptor, efficiently mediates an IFN-gamma-like response. An analogous completely foreign chimeric receptor in which the Y440 motif is replaced with the Y905 motif from gp130 also mediates an IFN-gamma-like response, but less efficiently. The IFNGR1 signal-transducing subunit of the IFN-gamma receptor is tyrosine phosphorylated through the chimeric receptors and the endogenous IL-6 and OSM receptors. Cross phosphorylation of IFNGR1 is not, however, required for the IFN-gamma-like response through the chimeric receptors, nor does it mediate an IFN-gamma-like response to IL-6 or OSM. The data argue strongly for modular JAK/STAT signalling and against any rigid structural organization for the "pathways" involved. They emphasize the likely high degree of overlap between the signals generated from disparate JAK-receptor complexes and show that relatively minor changes in such complexes can profoundly affect the response.  相似文献

Signalling of interleukin (IL)-6 and interleukin-11 through gp130 homodimeric receptor complexes has been analysed with respect to initiation and termination of signalling in great detail. Gp130 contains a crucial motif around tyrosine Y759, which mediates negative regulation through the feedback inhibitor SOCS3 and the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2. Signalling of leukaemia inhibitory factor (LIF), ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1), CT-1-like factor (CLC) or oncostatin M (OSM) through gp130/LIF-R is believed to be similar due to the presence of the common signal transducer gp130 within the receptor complexes utilized, but the difference in the composition of gp130/gp130-homodimers and gp130/LIF-R-heterodimers is likely to be reflected in different signalling. Here, we analysed the contribution of the LIF-R within the gp130/LIF-R complex to negative regulation mediated by SHP2 and SOCS3. We show that SHP2 contributes to the negative regulation of signalling through gp130/LIF-R complexes. The inhibitory tyrosine motifs within the cytoplasmic parts of gp130 and the LIF-R act independently. Whereas SHP2 and SOCS3 bind directly to the inhibitory motif of gp130, only SHP2 was found to bind to the corresponding inhibitory sequence of the LIF-R. This observation was further corroborated by experiments indicating that mainly gp130 contributes to the inhibition of signalling by SOCS3.  相似文献

Misregulated interleukin-6 (IL-6)-induced Jak/STAT signaling contributes to many diseases. Under non-pathological conditions Jak/STAT signaling is tightly regulated by a complex network of regulators. One of these regulators is the protein tyrosine phosphatase SH2-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2). Although SHP2 is known to be a negative regulator of IL-6-induced Jak/STAT signaling, its exact molecular function is not entirely understood. To elucidate the function of SHP2 in IL-6 signaling we followed a systems biology approach, in which modeling, stepwise model refinement, and experimental analysis are closely linked. We come up with an identifiable model of early Jak/STAT signaling that describes the data and proves to be predictive. The model-based analysis implies that (1) the stepwise association of IL-6 with gp80 and gp130 and (2) STAT3 dimerization at the receptor are essential for the dynamics of early pathway activation, and (3) phosphorylation of SHP2 is nonlinear. Furthermore, the modeling results indicate that SHP2 does not act as a feedback inhibitor in an early phase of IL-6-induced Jak/STAT signaling. However, experimental data reveal that SHP2 exhibits a basal repressory function.  相似文献

The transmembrane glycoprotein signal regulatory protein/SHP2-substrate (SIRP1alpha/SHPS-1) has been implicated in growth factor- and cell adhesion-induced signalling. Here we report on the contribution of SIRP1alpha to IL-6 type cytokine signalling. SIRP1alpha binds the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 upon treatment with interleukin-6 in a stimulation-dependent manner. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts expressing a SIRP1alpha protein which lacks the intracellular part show enhanced SHP2 phosphorylation and ERK1/2 activation in response to IL-6, suggesting that SIRP1alpha affects IL-6-signalling through SHP2. Whereas SHP2 phosphorylation is enhanced in SIRP1alpha-deficient cells STAT3 activation is delayed and STAT3-dependent gene induction is reduced which correlates with reduced STAT3 serine phosphorylation. Our results indicate that SIRP1alpha contributes to IL-6 signalling by counteracting SHP2 phosphorylation which consequently affects ERK-activation and STAT3-dependent transactivation as well as target gene expression. Our observations will help to understand the tight balance of MAPK- and STAT3-activation in response to IL-6 which was found to be misbalanced in many autoimmune diseases, inflammatory proliferative diseases and cancer.  相似文献

The mechanisms by which interleukin-6 (IL-6) family cytokines, which utilize the common receptor signaling subunit gp130, influence monocyte/macrophage development remain unclear. Here we have utilized macrophages devoid of either gp130-dependent STAT1/3 (gp130ΔSTAT/ΔSTAT) or extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase (gp130Y757F/Y757F) activation to assess the individual contribution of each pathway to macrophage formation. While the inhibition by IL-6 of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF)-induced colony formation observed in gp130wt/wt mice was abolished in gp130ΔSTAT/ΔSTAT mice, inhibition of macrophage colony formation was enhanced in gp130Y757F/Y757F mice. In gp130ΔSTAT/ΔSTAT bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMMs), both IL-6- and M-CSF-induced ERK1/2 tyrosine phosphorylation was enhanced. By contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in response to M-CSF was reduced in gp130Y757F/Y757F BMMs, and the pattern of ERK1/2 activation in gp130 mutant BMMs correlated with their opposing responsiveness to M-CSF-induced proliferation. When compared to the level of expression in gp130wt/wt BMMs, c-fms expression was elevated in gp130ΔSTAT/ΔSTAT BMMs but reduced in gp130Y757F/Y757F BMMs. Finally, an ERK1/2 inhibitor suppressed M-CSF-induced BMM proliferation, and this result corresponded to a reduction in c-fms expression. Collectively, these results provide a functional and causal correlation between gp130-dependent ERK MAP kinase signaling and c-fms gene activation, a finding that provides a potential mechanism underlying the inhibition of M-CSF-dependent macrophage development by IL-6 family cytokines in mice.  相似文献

The gp130-like receptor (GPL) is a recently cloned member of the family of type I cytokine receptors. The name reflects its close relationship to gp130, the common receptor subunit of the interleukin (IL)-6-type cytokines. Indeed, the recently proposed ligand for GPL, IL-31, is closely related to the IL-6-type cytokines oncostatin M, leukemia inhibitory factor, and cardiotrophin-1. The second signal transducing receptor for IL-31 seems to be the oncostatin M receptor beta (OSMRbeta). The present study characterizes in depth the molecular mechanisms underlying GPL-mediated signal transduction. GPL is a strong activator of STAT3 and STAT5, whereas STAT1 is only marginally tyrosine-phosphorylated. We identify tyrosine residues 652 and 721 in the cytoplasmic region of the longest isoform of GPL (GPL(745)) as the major STAT5- and STAT3-activating sites, respectively. Additionally, we demonstrate Jak1 binding to GPL and its activation in heteromeric complexes with the OSMRbeta but also in a homomeric receptor complex. Most interesting, unlike OSMRbeta and gp130, GPL is insufficient to mediate ERK1/2 phosphorylation. We propose that this is due to a lack of recruitment of the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 or the adaptor protein Shc to the cytoplasmic domain of GPL.  相似文献

The present study characterizes the molecular mechanisms of CD95L-induced inhibition of IL-6 signaling, which is known to mediate hepatoprotective effects in response to various toxins. CD95L-induced caspase activation leads to degradation of gp130, thereby suppressing IL-6-induced phosphorylation of STAT3 (Tyr705) and of tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 (Tyr580). Degradation of gp130 protein in response to CD95L was largely prevented after inhibition of caspase 3 or 8. Introduction of a point mutation into a newly identified caspase cleavage site located within position 800–806 (DHVDGGD) of the cytoplasmic tail of gp130 leads to cleavage resistance of the respective receptor in an in vitro assay with recombinant active caspase 3. Correspondingly, the release of a C-terminal gp130-cleavage product of approximately 18 kDa was also inhibited after mutagenesis of this cleavage motif. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that caspase activation by CD95L antagonizes IL-6 signaling by a caspase-mediated cleavage of gp130 thereby probably counteracting hepatoprotective effects of IL-6.  相似文献

The function of the signal-transducing receptor subunit glycoprotein 130 (gp130) in the IL-6-receptor complex has previously been studied using carboxyl-terminal deletion mutants or a truncated molecule of approximately 60 membrane-proximal amino acids (containing box 1 and box 2) linked to the individual gp130 tyrosine motifs. However, the redundancy of the tyrosine motifs within the cytoplasmic part of gp130 has been neglected. Here we describe the analysis of the function of the individual cytoplasmic tyrosine residues of gp130 in the context of the full-length receptor protein in IL-6 signaling as measured by STAT activation, acute phase protein induction, and stimulation of proliferation. Add-back receptor mutants containing only one cytoplasmic tyrosine have been generated and tested for their efficiency in IL-6 signal transduction. Our studies revealed that tyrosine motifs which have been described to recruit STAT proteins are not equivalent with respect to their potential to activate STAT factors and acute phase protein gene promoters: the two distal tyrosines, Tyr905 and Tyr915, of gp130 were more potent than Tyr767 and Tyr814. Surprisingly, Tyr905 and Tyr915 mediate acute phase protein gene promoter activation stronger than the wild-type receptor containing all six cytoplasmic tyrosine residues. In contrast, Ba/F3 cells stably transfected with add-back receptors containing Tyr767 or Tyr905 were more sensitive to IL-6-induced proliferation than cells expressing the other add-back receptor mutants. Thus, the tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic part of gp130 were found to contribute differentially to IL-6 signal transduction in the full- length gp130 protein.  相似文献

Gab1 has structural similarities with Drosophila DOS (daughter of sevenless), which is a substrate of the protein tyrosine phosphatase Corkscrew. Both Gab1 and DOS have a pleckstrin homology domain and tyrosine residues, potential binding sites for various SH2 domain-containing adapter molecules when they are phosphorylated. We found that Gab1 was tyrosine phosphorylated in response to various cytokines, such as interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-3, alpha interferon (IFN-α), and IFN-γ. Upon the stimulation of IL-6 or IL-3, Gab1 was found to form a complex with phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3 kinase and SHP-2, a homolog of Corkscrew. Mutational analysis of gp130, the common subunit of IL-6 family cytokine receptors, revealed that neither tyrosine residues of gp130 nor its carboxy terminus was required for tyrosine phosphorylation of Gab1. Expression of Gab1 enhanced gp130-dependent mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase ERK2 activation. A mutation of tyrosine 759, the SHP-2 binding site of gp130, abrogated the interactions of Gab1 with SHP-2 and PI-3 kinase as well as ERK2 activation. Furthermore, ERK2 activation was inhibited by a dominant negative p85 PI-3 kinase, wortmannin, or a dominant negative Ras. These observations suggest that Gab1 acts as an adapter molecule in transmitting signals to ERK MAP kinase for the cytokine receptor gp130 and that SHP-2, PI-3 kinase, and Ras are involved in Gab1-mediated ERK activation.  相似文献

The successful resolution of inflammation is dependent upon the coordinated transition from the initial recruitment of neutrophils to a more sustained population of mononuclear cells. IL-6, which signals via the common receptor subunit gp130, represents a crucial checkpoint regulator of neutrophil trafficking during the inflammatory response by orchestrating chemokine production and leukocyte apoptosis. However, the relative contribution of specific IL-6-dependent signaling pathways to these processes remains unresolved. To define the receptor-mediated signaling events responsible for IL-6-driven neutrophil trafficking, we used a series of gp130 knockin mutant mice displaying altered IL-6-signaling capacities in an experimental model of acute peritoneal inflammation. Hyperactivation of STAT1 and STAT3 in gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice led to a more rapid clearance of neutrophils, and this coincided with a pronounced down-modulation in production of the neutrophil-attracting chemokine CXCL1/KC. By contrast, the proportion of apoptotic neutrophils in the inflammatory infiltrate remained unaffected. In gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice lacking IL-6, neutrophil trafficking and CXCL1/KC levels were normal, and this corresponded with a reduction in the level of STAT1/3 activity. Furthermore, monoallelic ablation of Stat3 in gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice specifically reduced STAT3 activity and corrected both the rapid clearance of neutrophils and impaired CXCL1/KC production. Conversely, genetic deletion of Stat1 in gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice failed to rescue the altered responses observed in gp130(Y757F/Y757F) mice. Collectively, these data genetically define that IL-6-driven signaling via STAT3, but not STAT1, limits the inflammatory recruitment of neutrophils, and therefore represents a critical event for the termination of the innate immune response.  相似文献
