The receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPσ mediates neural development and regeneration. Early studies on the ligands of PTPσ identified heparan sulfate proteolycan (HSPG) as a ligand. Binding of HSPG to PTPσ plays a critical role in axon guidance and synapse formation. PTPσ is also a receptor for chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG). CSPG is deposited in high concentration at sites of neural injury. The deposited CSPG inhibits neural regeneration and axonal growth via PTPσ. The crystal structure of N-terminal immunoglobulin-like domains of PTPσ shows that the glycan binding site forms an elliptical surface patch of ~35 by 24 Å, which interacts with sulfate groups of HSPG and CSPG. In this review, we focus on the structural and functional mechanisms for the neural regeneration regulation by different types of proteoglycans. We also discuss recent results on induction of neural regeneration in the stroke model and neural transplantation. The mechanistic understanding of relationships between proteoglycans and PTPσ provides new therapeutic opportunities against diseases with impaired neural regeneration.  相似文献

Fc-receptor stimulation in myeloid cells results in increased oxygen consumption, termed the respiratory burst, which is coupled to a rapid and transient increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. In a previous paper in this journal we showed that the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) inhibitors sodium orthovanadate and phenylarsine oxide (PAO) block the FcγRI-induced respiratory burst in interferon-γ-differentiated U937 cells (U937IF) while augmenting the FcγRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. Herein we examine the effects of PTPase inhibitors on specific molecules involved in FcγRI signaling. We show that orthovanadate and PAO augmented the FcγRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the adaptor protein CBL. CBL interactions with other phosphoproteins, among them SHC and CRKL, were also augmented in response to pretreatment with the PTPase inhibitors. SHC was tyrosine phosphorylated in response to FcγRI stimulation of U937IF cells and bound to the SH2 domain of GRB2 in a stimulation-dependent manner. In fusion protein pull-down experiments the interaction of SHC with the SH2 domain of GRB2 was increased in PTPase inhibitor pretreated U937IF cells in response to FcγRI stimulation. Our data support the hypothesis that a tyrosine dephosphorylation event is required for effective transmission of the FcγRI signal to result in activation of the myeloid respiratory burst response.  相似文献

Osteosarcoma (OS), a highly aggressive primary bone tumor, belongs to the most common solid tumors in growing children. Since specific molecular targets for OS treatment remain to be identified, surgical resection combined with multimodal (neo-)adjuvant chemotherapy is still the only way to help respective individuals. We have previously identified the protein tyrosine phosphatase Rptpζ as a marker of terminally differentiated osteoblasts, which negatively regulates their proliferation in vitro. Here we have addressed the question if Rptpζ can function as a tumor suppressor protein inhibiting OS development in vivo. We therefore analyzed the skeletal phenotype of mice lacking Ptprz1, the gene encoding Rptpζ on a tumor-prone genetic background, i.e. Trp53-heterozygosity. By screening a large number of 52 week old Trp53-heterozygous mice by contact radiography we found that Ptprz1-deficiency significantly enhanced OS development with 19% of the mice being affected. The tumors in Ptprz1-deficient Trp53-heterozygous mice were present in different locations (spine, long bones, ribs), and their OS nature was confirmed by undecalcified histology. Likewise, cell lines derived from the tumors were able to undergo osteogenic differentiation ex vivo. A comparison between Ptprz1-heterozygous and Ptprz1-deficient cultures further revealed that the latter ones displayed increased proliferation, a higher abundance of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and resistance towards the influence of the growth factor Midkine. Our findings underscore the relevance of Rptpζ as an attenuator of proliferation in differentiated osteoblasts and raise the possibility that activating Rptpζ-dependent signaling could specifically target osteoblastic tumor cells.  相似文献

Receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase α (RPTPα) is the mitotic activator of the protein tyrosine kinase Src. RPTPα serine hyperphosphorylation was proposed to mediate mitotic activation of Src. We raised phosphospecific antibodies to the two main serine phosphorylation sites, and we discovered that RPTPα Ser204 was almost completely dephosphorylated in mitotic NIH 3T3 and HeLa cells, whereas Ser180 and Tyr789 phosphorylation were only marginally reduced in mitosis. Concomitantly, Src pTyr527 and pTyr416 were dephosphorylated, resulting in 2.3-fold activation of Src in mitosis. Using inhibitors and knockdown experiments, we demonstrated that dephosphorylation of RPTPα pSer204 in mitosis was mediated by PP2A. Mutation of Ser204 to Ala did not activate RPTPα, and intrinsic catalytic activity of RPTPα was not affected in mitosis. Interestingly, binding of endogenous Src to RPTPα was induced in mitosis. GRB2 binding to RPTPα, which was proposed to compete with Src binding to RPTPα, was only modestly reduced in mitosis, which could not account for enhanced Src binding. Moreover, we demonstrate that Src bound to mutant RPTPα-Y789F, lacking the GRB2 binding site, and mutant Src with an impaired Src homology 2 (SH2) domain bound to RPTPα, illustrating that Src binding to RPTPα is not mediated by a pTyr-SH2 interaction. Mutation of RPTPα Ser204 to Asp, mimicking phosphorylation, reduced coimmunoprecipitation with Src, suggesting that phosphorylation of Ser204 prohibits binding to Src. Based on our results, we propose a new model for mitotic activation of Src in which PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation of RPTPα pSer204 facilitates Src binding, leading to RPTPα-mediated dephosphorylation of Src pTyr527 and pTyr416 and hence modest activation of Src.Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are responsible for dephosphorylation of the phosphotyrosyl residues. The human genome contains approximately 100 genes that encode members of the four PTP families, and most of them have mouse orthologues (2, 48). According to their subcellular localization, the classical PTPs, encoded by less than half of the total PTP genes, are divided into two subfamilies: cytoplasmic and receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs). The majority of the RPTPs contain, besides a variable extracellular domain and a transmembrane domain, two highly homologous phosphatase domains (27), with the membrane-proximal domain comprising most of the catalytic activity (33).RPTPα is a typical RPTP with a small, highly glycosylated extracellular domain (13). RPTPα function is regulated by many mechanisms, including proteolysis (18), oxidation (55), dimerization (7, 23, 24, 47, 52), and phosphorylation of serine and tyrosine residues (16, 17, 49). RPTPα is broadly expressed in many cell types, and over the years, RPTPα has been shown to be involved in a number of signaling mechanisms, including neuronal (15) and skeletal muscle (34) cell differentiation, neurite elongation (8, 9, 56), insulin receptor signaling downregulation (3, 28, 30, 31, 35), insulin secretion (25), activation of voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.2 (51), long-term potentiation in hippocampal neurons (32, 38), matrix-dependent force transduction (53), and cell spreading and migration (21, 45, 57).The majority of the roles played in these cellular processes involve RPTPα''s ability to activate the proto-oncogenes Src and Fyn by dephosphorylating their C-terminal inhibitory phosphotyrosine (5, 15, 39, 45, 61). Normally, this phosphotyrosine (pTyr527 in chicken Src) binds to the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain, keeping the protein in an inactive closed conformation. A displacement mechanism was proposed for RPTPα-mediated Src activation in which pTyr789 of RPTPα is required to bind the SH2 domain of Src before RPTPα dephosphorylates Tyr527 (58). This model is the subject of debate since other studies show that RPTPα lacking Tyr789 is still able to dephosphorylate and activate Src (12, 26, 29, 56). In normal cells, Src reaches its activation peak during mitosis (4, 11, 40, 42), and with the help of overexpressing cells, it was shown that this activation is triggered mainly by RPTPα. The model that emerged is that RPTPα is activated in mitosis due to serine hyperphosphorylation and detaches from the GRB2 scaffolding protein (59, 60) that normally binds most of the pTyr789 of RPTPα via its SH2 domain (14, 17, 46). Two serine phosphorylation sites were mapped in the juxtamembrane domain of RPTPα, Ser180 and Ser204 (49). The kinases that were found responsible for their phosphorylation were protein kinase C delta (PKCdelta) (10) and CaMKIIalpha (9), but there is no clear evidence that these kinases are activated in mitosis. We set out to investigate the role of serine phosphorylation of RPTPα in mitotic activation of Src.We generated phosphospecific antibodies and show that RPTPα pSer204, but not pSer180, is dephosphorylated in mitotic NIH 3T3 and HeLa cells, concomitantly with activation of Src. Selective inhibitors suggested that PP2A was the phosphatase that dephosphorylated pSer204. RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated knockdown of the catalytic subunit of PP2A demonstrated that indeed PP2A was responsible for mitotic dephosphorylation of RPTPα pSer204. It is noteworthy that PP2A is known to be activated in mitosis. Intrinsic PTP activities of RPTPα were similar in unsynchronized and mitotic cells, and mutation of Ser204 did not activate RPTPα in in vitro PTP assays. Yet, Src binding to RPTPα was induced in mitotic NIH 3T3 cells and RPTPα-S204D with a phosphomimicking mutation at Ser204 coimmunoprecipitated less efficiently with Src. Based on our results, we propose a mechanism for mitotic activation of Src that is triggered by dephosphorylation of RPTPα pSer204, resulting in enhanced affinity for Src and subsequent dephosphorylation and activation of Src.  相似文献

Integrin αIIbβ3 signaling mediated by kinases and phosphatases participate in hemostasis and thrombosis, in part, by supporting stable platelet adhesion. Our previous studies indicate that the genetic manipulation of PP2Acα (α isoform of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A) negatively regulate the adhesion of human embryonal kidney 293 cells expressing αIIbβ3 to fibrinogen. Here, we demonstrated that small interference RNA (siRNA) mediated knockdown of PP2Acα in 293 αIIbβ3 cells led to the dephosphorylation of Src Tyr-529, phosphorylation of Src Tyr-418 and an increased Src kinase activity. Conversely, overexpression of PP2Acα decreased the basal Src activity. Pharmacological inhibition of PP2Ac in human platelets or PP2Acα knockdown in primary murine megakaryocytes resulted in Src activation. PP2Acα-depleted 293 αIIbβ3 cells did not alter the serine (Ser) phosphorylation of Src but enhanced the Ser-50 phosphorylation of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP-1B) with a concomitant increase in the PTP-1B activity. Src activation in the PP2Acα-depleted 293 αIIbβ3 cells was abolished by siRNA mediated knockdown of PTP-1B. Pharmacological inhibition of Src or knockdown of Src, PTP-1B blocked the enhanced activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and the increased adhesiveness of PP2Acα-depleted 293 αIIbβ3 cells to fibrinogen, respectively. Thus, inactivation of PP2Acα promotes hyperphosphorylation of PTP-1B Ser-50, elevates PTP-1B activity, which dephosphorylates Src Tyr-529 to activate Src and its downstream ERK1/2 signaling pathways that regulate αIIbβ3 adhesion. Moreover, these studies extend the notion that a cross-talk between Ser/Thr and Tyr phosphatases can fine-tune αIIbβ3 outside-in signaling.  相似文献

The non-receptor isoform of protein-tyrosine phosphatase ϵ (cyt-PTPe) supports adhesion of bone-resorbing osteoclasts by activating Src downstream of integrins. Loss of cyt-PTPe reduces Src activity in osteoclasts, reduces resorption of mineralized matrix both in vivo and in cell culture, and induces mild osteopetrosis in young female PTPe KO mice. Activation of Src by cyt-PTPe is dependent upon this phosphatase undergoing phosphorylation at its C-terminal Tyr-638 by partially active Src. To understand how cyt-PTPe activates Src, we screened 73 Src homology 2 (SH2) domains for binding to Tyr(P)-638 of cyt-PTPe. The SH2 domain of GRB2 bound Tyr(P)-638 of cyt-PTPe most prominently, whereas the Src SH2 domain did not bind at all, suggesting that GRB2 may link PTPe with downstream molecules. Further studies indicated that GRB2 is required for activation of Src by cyt-PTPe in osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) in culture. Overexpression of GRB2 in OCLs increased activating phosphorylation of Src at Tyr-416 and of cyt-PTPe at Tyr-638; opposite results were obtained when GRB2 expression was reduced by shRNA or by gene inactivation. Phosphorylation of cyt-PTPe at Tyr-683 and its association with GRB2 are integrin-driven processes in OCLs, and cyt-PTPe undergoes autodephosphorylation at Tyr-683, thus limiting Src activation by integrins. Reduced GRB2 expression also reduced the ability of bone marrow precursors to differentiate into OCLs and reduced the fraction of OCLs in which podosomal adhesion structures assume organization typical of active, resorbing cells. We conclude that GRB2 physically links cyt-PTPe with Src and enables cyt-PTPe to activate Src downstream of activated integrins in OCLs.  相似文献

Integrin-mediated focal adhesions connect the extracellular matrix and cytoskeleton to regulate cell responses, such as migration. Protein tyrosine phosphatase α (PTPα) regulates integrin signaling, focal adhesion formation, and migration, but its roles in these events are incompletely understood. The integrin-proximal action of PTPα activates Src family kinases, and subsequent phosphorylation of PTPα at Tyr789 acts in an unknown manner to promote migration. PTPα-null cells were used in reconstitution assays to distinguish PTPα-Tyr789-dependent signaling events. This showed that PTPα-Tyr789 regulates the localization of PTPα and the scaffolding protein Cas to adhesion sites where Cas interacts with and is phosphorylated by Src to initiate Cas signaling. Linking these events, we identify BCAR3 as a molecular connector of PTPα and Cas, with phospho-Tyr789 PTPα serving as the first defined cellular ligand for the BCAR3 SH2 domain that recruits BCAR3-Cas to adhesions. Our findings reveal a novel role of PTPα in integrin-induced adhesion assembly that enables Src-mediated activation of the pivotal function of Cas in migration.  相似文献

Protein tyrosine phosphatases play key roles in a diverse range of cellular processes such as differentiation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, immunological signaling, and cytoskeletal function. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 7 (PTPN7), a member of the phosphatase family, specifically inactivates mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). Here, we report that PTPN7 acts as a regulator of pro-inflammatory TNF-α production in RAW 264.7 cells that are stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) that acts as an endotoxin and elicits strong immune responses in animals. Stimulation of RAW 264.7 cells with LPS leads to a transient decrease in the levels of PTPN7 mRNA and protein. The overexpression of PTPN7 inhibits LPS-stimulated production of TNF-α. In addition, small interfering RNA (siRNA) analysis showed that knock-down of PTPN7 in RAW 264.7 cells increased TNF-α production. PTPN7 has a negative regulatory function to extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and p38 that increase LPS-induced TNF-α production in macrophages. Thus, our data presents PTPN7 as a negative regulator of TNF-α expression and the inflammatory response in macrophages.  相似文献

Pleiotrophin is a growth factor that induces carcinogenesis. Despite the fact that many published reports focused on the role of pleiotrophin and its receptors, receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTPβ/ζ), and syndecan-3 during tumor development, no information is available regarding their function in tumor metastasis. To investigate the mechanism through which pleiotrophin regulates tumor metastasis, we used two different prostate carcinoma cell lines, DU145 and PC3, in which the expression of RPTPβ/ζ or syndecan-3 was down-regulated by the RNAi technology. The loss of RPTPβ/ζ expression initiated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and increased the ability of the cells to migrate and invade. Importantly, the loss of RPTPβ/ζ expression increased metastasis in nude mice in an experimental metastasis assay. We also demonstrate that RPTPβ/ζ counterbalanced the pleiotrophin-mediated syndecan-3 pathway. While the inhibition of syndecan-3 expression inhibited the pleiotrophin-mediated cell migration and attachment through the Src and Fak pathway, the inhibition of RPTPβ/ζ expression increased pleiotrophin-mediated migration and attachment through an interaction with Src and the subsequent activation of a signal transduction pathway involving Fak, Pten, and Erk1/2. Taken together, these results suggest that the loss of RPTPβ/ζ may contribute to the metastasis of prostate cancer cells by inducing EMT and promoting pleiotrophin activity through the syndecan-3 pathway.  相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a mitogen for vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and has been implicated in the development and progression of atherosclerosis. IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) modify IGF-I actions independently of IGF binding, but a receptor-based mechanism by which they function has not been elucidated. We investigated the role of IGFBP-2 and receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase β (RPTPβ) in regulating IGF-I signaling and cellular proliferation. IGFBP-2 bound RPTPβ, which led to its dimerization and inactivation. This enhanced PTEN tyrosine phosphorylation and inhibited PTEN activity. Utilization of substrate trapping and phosphatase-dead mutants showed that RPTPβ bound specifically to PTEN and dephosphorylated it. IGFBP-2 knockdown led to decreased PTEN tyrosine phosphorylation and decreased AKT Ser473 activation. IGFBP-2 enhanced IGF-I-stimulated VSMC migration and proliferation. Analysis of aortas obtained from IGFBP-2−/− mice showed that RPTPβ was activated, and this was associated with inhibition of IGF-I stimulated AKT Ser473 phosphorylation and VSMC proliferation. These changes were rescued following administration of IGFBP-2. These findings present a novel mechanism for coordinate regulation of IGFBP-2 and IGF-I signaling functions that lead to stimulation of VSMC proliferation. The results have important implications for understanding how IGFBPs modulate the cellular response to IGF-I.  相似文献

The present work investigates protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) and the α-glucosidase inhibitory activities of two edible brown algae, Ecklonia stolonifera and Eisenia bicyclis, as well as in their isolated phlorotannins. Since the individual extracts and fractions showed significant inhibitory activities, column chromatography was performed to isolate six phlorotannins, phloroglucinol (1), dioxinodehydroeckol (2), eckol (3), phlorofurofucoeckol-A (4), dieckol (5), and 7-phloroeckol (6). Phlorotannins 3–6 were potent and noncompetitive PTP1B inhibitors with IC50 values ranging from 0.56 to 2.64 μM; 4–6 exhibited the most potent α-glucosidase inhibition with IC50 values ranging from 1.37 to 6.13 μM. Interestingly, 4 and 6 were noncompetitive, while 5 exhibited competitive inhibition in an α-glucosidase assay. E. stolonifera and E. bicyclis as well as their isolated phlorotannins therefore possessed marked PTP1B and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities; this could lead to opportunities in the development of therapeutic agents to control the postprandial blood glucose level and thereby prevent diabetic complications.  相似文献

Cadherin-mediated adhesion depends on the association of its cytoplasmic domain with the actin-containing cytoskeleton. This interaction is mediated by a group of cytoplasmic proteins: α-and β- or γ- catenin. Phosphorylation of β-catenin on tyrosine residues plays a role in controlling this association and, therefore, cadherin function. Previous work from our laboratory suggested that a nonreceptor protein tyrosine phosphatase, bound to the cytoplasmic domain of N-cadherin, is responsible for removing tyrosine-bound phosphate residues from β-catenin, thus maintaining the cadherin–actin connection (Balsamo et al., 1996). Here we report the molecular cloning of the cadherin-associated tyrosine phosphatase and identify it as PTP1B. To definitively establish a causal relationship between the function of cadherin-bound PTP1B and cadherin-mediated adhesion, we tested the effect of expressing a catalytically inactive form of PTP1B in L cells constitutively expressing N-cadherin. We find that expression of the catalytically inactive PTP1B results in reduced cadherin-mediated adhesion. Furthermore, cadherin is uncoupled from its association with actin, and β-catenin shows increased phosphorylation on tyrosine residues when compared with parental cells or cells transfected with the wild-type PTP1B. Both the transfected wild-type and the mutant PTP1B are found associated with N-cadherin, and recombinant mutant PTP1B binds to N-cadherin in vitro, indicating that the catalytically inactive form acts as a dominant negative, displacing endogenous PTP1B, and rendering cadherin nonfunctional. Our results demonstrate a role for PTP1B in regulating cadherin-mediated cell adhesion.  相似文献

α-Synuclein (a-Syn), a protein implicated in Parkinson disease, contributes significantly to dopamine metabolism. a-Syn binding inhibits the activity of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate-limiting enzyme in catecholamine synthesis. Phosphorylation of TH stimulates its activity, an effect that is reversed by protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). In cells, a-Syn overexpression activates PP2A. Here we demonstrate that a-Syn significantly inhibited TH activity in vitro and in vivo and that phosphorylation of a-Syn serine 129 (Ser-129) modulated this effect. In MN9D cells, a-Syn overexpression reduced TH serine 19 phosphorylation (Ser(P)-19). In dopaminergic tissues from mice overexpressing human a-Syn in catecholamine neurons only, TH-Ser-19 and TH-Ser-40 phosphorylation and activity were also reduced, whereas PP2A was more active. Cerebellum, which lacks excess a-Syn, had PP2A activity identical to controls. Conversely, a-Syn knock-out mice had elevated TH-Ser-19 phosphorylation and activity and less active PP2A in dopaminergic tissues. Using an a-Syn Ser-129 dephosphorylation mimic, with serine mutated to alanine, TH was more inhibited, whereas PP2A was more active in vitro and in vivo. Phosphorylation of a-Syn Ser-129 by Polo-like-kinase 2 in vitro reduced the ability of a-Syn to inhibit TH or activate PP2A, identifying a novel regulatory role for Ser-129 on a-Syn. These findings extend our understanding of normal a-Syn biology and have implications for the dopamine dysfunction of Parkinson disease.  相似文献
