The fate in culture of the T cell growth factor (TCGF), which is required for continued growth of human cultured T cells (CTC) in vitro, was studied. TCGF activity was stable for 7 days at 37 degrees C. However, it was no longer detectable after incubation with actively growing CTC at 37 degrees C for 3 days. This loss of TCGF activity also occurred quite rapidly and was detectable within 1 hr of incubation of 0.3 ml supernatant with 2 to 5 x 10(7) CTC at 23 degrees C. 2 x 10(8) mononuclear peripheral blood leukocytes were not effective in removing TCGF activity, and incubation with similar numbers of cells from B and T cell lines had no effect. Three-day-old concanavalin A and phytohemagglutinin blasts were very reactive with TCGF, so that 10(7) or 2 x 10(7) cells consistently removed TCGF activity. These experiments suggested specific absorption of TCGF by activated T cells, and led us to develop a model of ligand-activated TCGF-induced proliferation of T cells: Ligands induce production of TCGF by T-producer cells and deliver a first signal to the T-responder cells. This causes a receptor for TCGF to appear on T-responder cells. Only then does TCGF deliver the obligatory second signal that is needed to drive the T-responder cells into proliferation. 相似文献

This article discusses a novel intracrine mechanism of growth-factor action in the nervous system whereby fibroblast growth
factor-2 (FGF-2) and its receptor accumulate in the cell nucleus and act as mediators in the control of cell growth and proliferation.
In human and rat brain the levels and subcellular localization of FGF-2 differ between quiescent and reactive astrocytes.
Quiescent cells express a low level of FGF-2, which is located predominantly within the cytoplasm. In reactive astrocytes,
the expression of FGF-2 increases and the proteins are found in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. In glioma tumors, FGF-2 is
overexpressed in the nuclei of neoplastic cells. Similar changes in FGF-2 expression and localization are found in vitro.
The nuclear accumulation of FGF-2 reflects a transient activation of the FGF-2 gene by potentially novel transactivating factors
interacting with an upstream regulatory promoter region. In parallel with FGF-2, the nuclei of astrocytes contain the high-affinity
FGF-2 receptor, FGFR1. Nuclear FGFR1 is full length, retains kinase activity, and is localized within the nuclear interior
in association with the nuclear matrix. Transfection of either FGF-2 or FGFR1 into cells that do not normally express these
proteins results in their nuclear accumulation and concomitant increases in cell proliferation. A similar regulation of nuclear
FGF-2 and FGFR1 is observed in neural crest-derived adrenal medullary cells and of FGF-2 in the nuclei of cerebellar neurons.
Thus, the regulation of the nuclear content of FGF-2 and FGFR1 could serve as a novel mechanism controlling growth and proliferation
of glial and neuronal cells. 相似文献

Using a forward genetic approach and phenotype-based complementation screening to search for factors that stimulate cell proliferation, we have isolated a novel secreted bone marrow stroma-derived growth factor, which we termed SF20/IL-25. This protein signals cells to proliferate via its receptor, which we have identified as mouse thymic shared Ag-1 (TSA-1). Enforced expression of TSA-1 in IL-3-dependent Ba/F3 cells that do not express endogenous TSA-1 rendered cells to proliferate in a dose-dependent manner when stimulated with SF20/IL-25. FDCP2, a factor-dependent hemopoietic cell line that expresses endogenous TSA-1, could also be stimulated to proliferate with SF20/IL-25. Binding of SF20 to TSA-1 was blocked by anti-TSA-1 Ab and SF20-induced proliferation of TSA-1-expressing cells was inhibited by anti-TSA-1. In vitro assay revealed that SF20/IL-25 has no detectable myelopoietic activity but supports proliferation of cells in the lymphoid lineage. 相似文献

Regulation of cell proliferation by epidermal growth factor 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27

Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a 6045 dalton polypeptide which stimulates the proliferation of various cell types in vitro and in vivo. EGF binds to diffusely distributed membrane receptors which rapidly cluster primarily on coated pits areas on the plasma membrane. Subsequently, the EGF-receptor complexes are endocytosed and degraded by lysosomal enzymes. The lateral diffusion coefficient (D) of EGF-receptor complexes on cultured cells increases gradually from D = 2.8 X 10(-10) cm2/sec at 5 degrees C to 8.5 X 10(-10) cm2/sec at 37 degrees C. In the same range of temperature the rotational correlation times change from 25 to 50 microseconds to approximately 350 microseconds. Hence, at 4 degrees C, the occupied EGF receptors translate and rotate rapidly in the plane of the membrane. At 37 degrees C, EGF receptors form microclusters composed of 10 to 50 molecules. Moreover, it is concluded that both at 4 degrees C and 37 degrees C lateral diffusion of the occupied receptors is not the rate determining step for either receptor clustering or internalization. EGF receptor is a 150,000 to 170,000 dalton glycoprotein. The receptor is in close proximity to an EGF-sensitive, cAMP-independent, tyrosine-specific protein kinase which also phosphorylates the receptor molecules itself. The EGF sensitive kinase is similar to the kinase activity which is associated with certain RNA tumor viruses. The fact that the non-mitogenic cyanogen-bromide cleaved EGF is as potent as native EGF in stimulating phosphorylation suggests that EGF-induced, protein phosphorylation is a necessary but insufficient signal for the induction of DNA synthesis by EGF. EGF receptor serves also as the binding site for Transforming Growth Factors (TGF) which compete with EGF and induce anchorage-independent growth of normal cells in soft agar. Tumor promoters such as phorbol ester effect the binding of EGF to its membrane receptors and its ability to stimulate DNA synthesis. EGF itself has also some tumor promoting activity. Hence, the membrane receptor for EGF seems to participate in the regulation of normal and neoplastic growth. Monoclonal antibodies against EGF receptor (IgM) induce various early and delayed effects of EGF, while their monovalent Fab' fragments are devoid of biological activity. These observations support the notions that EGF receptor rather than EGF itself is the active moiety and that the role of the hormone is to perturb the receptor in the appropriate way, probably by inducing the microaggregation of EGF receptors. 相似文献

Role of ornithine decarboxylase in the regulation of cell growth by IL-1 and tumor necrosis factor 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) is a rate-limiting enzyme in polyamine synthesis, and polyamines are required for cell growth. As an approach to clarifying the mechanism of action IL-1, the effects of IL-1 on ODC activity were examined in various cell lines whose proliferation was either suppressed or enhanced by IL-1. The proliferation of all cell types used in these experiments was markedly suppressed by a specific ODC inhibitor, alpha-difluoromethyl ornithine (DFMO), substantiating the crucial role of ODC activity for cell proliferation. ODC activity also was considerably suppressed by IL-1 in those cells on which IL-1 exerts an antiproliferative effect, such as a human melanoma cell line (A375) and malignant human mammary cell lines (MCF-7 and T-47D). On the other hand, ODC activity was stimulated in cells that are stimulated to proliferate in response to IL-1, such as a mouse helper T cell line (D10.G4.1), a NK cell-like cell line (YT), and a human glioblastoma cell line (U373 MG). The effect of IL-1 on ODC activity preceded and directly correlated in a dose-dependent manner with its effect on DNA synthesis. Furthermore, putrescine, a product of the ODC reaction and a precursor of polyamines, was able to overcome most, but not all, the antiproliferative action of IL-1 in A375 melanoma cells, which were the most sensitive to suppression by IL-1. However, putrescine did not reverse the cytostatic effect of IL-1 on MCF-7 and T-47D cell lines. In contrast, putrescine, like IL-1, exhibited some co-mitogenic activity on D10.G4.1 cells. Because the biological activities of TNF and IL-1 show considerable overlap, the effect of TNF on ODC activity also was examined. TNF had an antiproliferative effect on A375 cells and stimulated the proliferation of U373 MG cells. The ODC activity in A375 cells was suppressed by TNF, and the ODC activity in U373 MG cells was stimulated by TNF. Putrescine also partially overcame the inhibitory effect of TNF. These results suggest that the regulation of ODC activity may be a key component in the antiproliferative and proliferative action of IL-1 and TNF in some tumor cell types. 相似文献

Three polypeptide fractions were separated from the culture supernatant of a thymic epithelial cell line, TAD3, by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with gel-filtration column (GFC). One (estimated molecular weight: 10 kD) of the polypeptide fractions possessed the capacity to induce thymocyte proliferation. The sensitive cells for the growth factor in the fraction seem to be immature thymocytes which exist in the outer-cortical or the subcapsular area of thymic lobule. Furthermore, the mechanism to proliferate the thymocytes appears to differ from that of other cytokines. Thus, the fraction might possibly contain a previously unidentified thymocyte growth factor. 相似文献

Polyamines have been shown to stimulate cellular growth and differentiation, though their role in the prevention of acute gastric lesion induced by various noxious agents has been little studied. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) exhibits gastroprotective and ulcer healing properties due to its potent mitogenic and growth promoting action. This study was designed to compare the gastroprotective effects of spermine and EGF against gastric damage induced by absolute ethanol, acidified aspirin and stress and to determine the role of endogenous polyamines in EGF-induced gastroprotection. Spermine and EGF significantly reduced the lesions induced by all three ulcerogens. Oral administration of spermine or subcutaneous infusion of EGF in 24 h fasted rats with chronic gastric fistula resulted in similar inhibition of gastric acid and pepsin secretion. Pretreatment with difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of polyamines, did not affect ethanol lesions, but reversed the protective effect EGF but not spermine against ethanol. This finding indicates that polyamines mediate, at least in part, EGF-induced gastroprotection. In tests with oral administration of aminoguanidine that is known to suppress the activity of diamino-oxidase (DAO) and to inhibit the degradation of polyamines, EGF showed a markedly enhanced gastroprotective activity against ethanol damage. Since indomethacin failed to affect the gastroprotective effects of spermine and EGF and neither of these agents influenced the mucosal generation of PGE2 in intact or injured gastric mucosa, we conclude that prostaglandins are not the major factors in spermine- and EGF-induced gastroprotection. This study demonstrates that polyamines are highly effective against gastric lesions induced by various ulcerogens and that they act as primary mediators of EGF-induced gastroprotection. 相似文献

Transforming growth factors and the regulation of cell proliferation 总被引:40,自引:0,他引:40
The number of different growth regulatory molecules which have been isolated and characterized is continuing to increase. As more information is obtained, it has become apparent that the cooperative actions of many factors with distinct activities is necessary for appropriate proliferative responses. An interplay of both growth stimulatory and growth inhibitory factors is essential for normal growth. Of crucial importance, therefore, is the appropriate regulation of growth factors. Unregulated expression, synthesis, posttranslational processing or activation of either positive or negative growth signals may contribute to neoplastic transformation (Fig. 3). Altered responses to normally positive or negative signals by transformed cells have been demonstrated by several investigators [64, 79, 84]. While altered growth factor responses in transformed cells are well documented, the mechanisms responsible for the loss of growth control are poorly understood and are likely to be both complex and numerous. Continued efforts to dissect and comprehend fully growth factor action on normal cells will be necessary before an understanding of neoplastic transformation can be achieved. 相似文献

The growth factors, cytokines, adhesive molecules and extracellular matrix components play the leading role in the processes of intercellular interactions. Literary data on structure and mechanisms of functioning of the growth factors and their receptors are summarised in the present review. Some aspects of regulatory functions of such growth factors as EGF, TGFalpha, TGFbeta, FGF, KGF, AR, and HGF in these processes in epidermis keratinocytes both in vivo and in vitro as example were also considered. 相似文献

Isolation and characteriation of functional nudear matrix proteins involved in DNA anchoring and gene expression is one of the major subjects of current nudear matrix research. Southwestern blotting (DNA-protein hybridization) was applied to studying the anchoring of c-myc on the nudear matrix proteins in mouse thymic T lymphocytes. The results showed that c-myc bound to the lamin, p34 and p36 nudear matrix proteins specifically. In the process of mouse thymic PNA T lymphocytes proliferation induced by ConA, the anchoring of c-myc on p34 and p36 nudear matrix proteins changed dynamically. 相似文献

We use the Dpp morphogen gradient in the Drosophila wing disc as a model to address the fundamental question of how a gradient of a growth factor can produce uniform growth. We first show that proper expression and subcellular localization of components in the Fat tumor-suppressor pathway, which have been argued to depend on Dpp activity differences, are not reliant on the Dpp gradient. We next analyzed cell proliferation in discs with uniformly high Dpp or uniformly low Fat signaling activity and found that these pathways regulate growth in?a complementary manner. While the Dpp mediator Brinker inhibits growth in the primordium primarily in the lateral regions, Fat represses growth mostly in the medial region. Together, our results indicate that the activities of both signaling pathways are regulated in a parallel rather than sequential manner and that uniform proliferation is achieved by their complementary action on growth. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) exhibits diverse regulatory roles in the immune system and has been described as a potent inhibitor of lymphocyte and hemopoietic progenitor cell growth. The present studies investigated the effects of TGF-beta 1 on murine T cell proliferation triggered through the T cell receptor/CD3 complex. In contrast to previously reported T cell growth inhibition, TGF-beta 1 costimulated splenic T cell proliferation in the presence of immobilized anti-CD3 antibody 2C11, with maximal effect at anti-CD3 concentration of 50 micrograms/ml. Although TGF-beta 1 induced a modest increase in IL-2R display, TGF-beta 1 co-stimulated proliferation was largely independent of IL-2 and/or IL-4. Anti-IL-2 and/or anti-IL-4 antibody did not significantly block the TGF-beta 1 co-stimulated T cell growth, and no IL-2 or IL-4 bioactivity was detected in TGF-beta 1 co-stimulated cultures. TGF-beta 1 did not enhance IL-2 mRNA expression beyond control levels. However, TGF-beta 1 co-stimulation caused an accelerated evolution of a memory or mature T cell population phenotype. Both CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subsets were significantly enriched for cells of the mature CD45RBloPgp-1hi phenotype, in comparison with T cells stimulated by anti-CD3 alone or with PMA, and CD8+ T cells predominated. These results thus provide initial evidence that TGF-beta 1 is capable of bifunctional T cell growth regulation, which occurs largely via an IL-2- and IL-4-independent pathway. 相似文献

A recently established thymic stroma-derived cell line (TSCL) supported the growth of the interleukin (IL) 2-dependent, antigen-specific helper T cell (Th) clone, 9-16, without requirement for IL-2 and antigen, and such growth was substituted by a factor produced into cultures by this established TSCL. This substance, thymic stroma-derived T cell-growth factor (TSTGF), was capable of inducing the proliferation of various Th clones including 9-16 Th clone, but not of cytotoxic T cell clones. TSTGF-induced growth promotion was obtained in a dose-dependent fashion and in maintaining antigen specificity of Th clones. The culture supernatant from the TSCL did not contain detectable level of IL-1, IL-2, IL-3, IL-4, or interferon activity. The proliferation of 9-16 Th clone was stimulated by recombinant IL-2 and IL-4 as well as TSTGF, but not by IL-1, IL-3, or interferons. However, the proliferation of this Th clone by IL-2 or IL-4 was almost completely inhibited by anti-IL-2 receptor or anti-IL-4 monoclonal antibody, respectively, whereas TSTGF-induced growth of 9-16 Th clones was not affected by either type of antibody, demonstrating that TSTGF is functionally distinct from IL-2 and IL-4. In addition, TSTGF activity was also obtained from the culture supernatant of the primary thymic explant, which was freshly prepared. These results indicate that the primary thymic explant as well as an established TSCL produce factors capable of promoting the growth of helper but not cytotoxic type of T cells in the absence of T cell growth factors thus far defined. 相似文献

The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signaling pathway is essential for inducing a dedifferentiated state of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Activation of PDGF inhibits smooth muscle cell (SMC)-specific gene expression and increases the rate of proliferation and migration, leading to dedifferentiation of VSMCs. Recently, microRNAs have been shown to play a critical role in the modulation of the VSMC phenotype in response to extracellular signals. However, little is known about microRNAs regulated by PDGF in VSMCs. Herein, we identify microRNA-15b (miR-15b) as a mediator of VSMC phenotype regulation upon PDGF signaling. We demonstrate that miR-15b is induced by PDGF in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells and is critical for PDGF-mediated repression of SMC-specific genes. In addition, we show that miR-15b promotes cell proliferation. These results indicate that PDGF signaling regulates SMC-specific gene expression and cell proliferation by modulating the expression of miR-15b to induce a dedifferentiated state in the VSMCs.

Linear growth occurs as the result of growth plate chondrocytes undergoing proliferative and hypertrophic phases. Paracrine feedback loops that regulate the entry of chondrocytes into the hypertrophic phase have been shown and similar pathways likely exist for the proliferative phase. Human long-bone growth plate chondrocytes were cultured in vitro. The proliferative effects of a variety of factors were determined by [3H]thymidine uptake and the gene expression profile of these cells was determined by DNA microarray analysis. Serum, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and -II, transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta, fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-1, -2, and -18, and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB were potent stimulators of proliferation. FGF-10, testosterone, and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP)-2, -4, and -6 inhibited proliferation. Microarray analysis showed that the genes for multiple members of the IGF-I, TGF-beta, FGF, and BMP pathways were expressed, suggesting the presence of autocrine/paracrine pathways that regulate the proliferative phase of growth plate-mediated growth. 相似文献
