Death associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a positive regulator in tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα)‐induced apoptotic pathway, and DAPK expression is lost in cancer cells. In the vasculature, misdirected apoptosis in endothelial cells leads to pathological conditions such as inflammation and physiological shear stress is protective against apoptosis. Using bovine aortic endothelial cells, we found that DAPK expression increased, while the auto‐inhibitory phosphorylation of serine 308 decreased with shear stress at 12 dynes/cm2 for 6 h. Quantitative RT‐PCR revealed a corresponding increase in DAPK mRNA [P < 0.01]. We found that after 18‐h TNFα induction, shearing cells for another 6 h significantly reduced apoptosis based on TUNEL staining [P < 0.05], although cell necrosis was not affected. Under the same conditions, we observed significantly decreased overall DAPK, as well as phospho‐serine 308 DAPK [P < 0.05] compared to TNFα treatment alone. Caspase‐3 and ‐7 activities downstream of DAPK were also attenuated. Shearing cells alone resulted in enhanced apoptosis, likely due to increased DAPK activity. Our findings were further supported by DAPK siRNA, which yielded contrary results. We present conclusive evidence for the first time that shear stress of up to 6 h up‐regulates DAPK expression and activation. However, in the presence of apoptotic stimuli such as TNFα, shear stress caused decrease in DAPK activity. In fact, long‐term shear stress of 24 h significantly reduced overall DAPK expression. Our findings strongly support a novel role for DAPK in mediating effects of shear stress in suppressing cytokine‐activated apoptosis. J. Cell.

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a multidomain enzyme that plays a central role in autophagic and apoptotic signaling, although the protein-protein interactions regulating DAPK functions are not well defined. Peptide aptamer libraries were used to identify the tumor suppressor protein tuberin (TSC2) as a novel DAPK death domain-binding protein, and we evaluated whether DAPK is a positive or negative effector of the TSC2-regulated mammalian target of rapamycin (mTORC1) signaling pathway. Binding studies using death domain miniproteins in vitro and deletion analysis in vivo determined that the death domain of DAPK is the major site for the interaction with TSC2. Recombinant DAPK phosphorylates TSC2 in vitro, and DAPK kinase activity is stimulated by growth factor signaling. Transfection of DAPK promotes phosphorylation of TSC2 in vivo, whereas short interfering RNA-mediated attenuation of DAPK reduces growth factor-stimulated phosphorylation of TSC2. DAPK-dependent phosphorylation leads to TSC1-TSC2 complex dissociation, and consequently manipulation of DAPK by transfection or short interfering RNA demonstrated that DAPK is a positive regulator of mTORC1 in response to growth factor activation. Epistatic studies suggest that DAPK functions downstream from the RAS-MEK-ERK and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-AKT growth factor signaling pathways. DAPK(+/-) mouse embryo fibroblasts have attenuated mTORC1 signaling compared with DAPK+/+ counterparts, and overexpression of DAPK in DAPK(+/-) MEFs stimulates mTORC1 activity. These data uncover a novel interaction between DAPK and TSC2 proteins that has revealed a positive link between growth factor stimulation of DAPK and mTORC1 signaling that may ultimately affect autophagy, cell survival, or apoptosis. 相似文献

In this study, two alternatively spliced forms of the mouse death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) have been identified and their roles in apoptosis examined. The mouse DAPK-alpha sequence is 95% identical to the previously described human DAPK, and it has a kinase domain and calmodulin-binding region closely related to the 130-150 kDa myosin light chain kinases. A 12-residue extension of the carboxyl terminus of DAPK-beta distinguishes it from the human and mouse DAPK-alpha. DAPK phosphorylates at least one substrate in vitro and in vivo, the myosin II regulatory light chain. This phosphorylation occurs preferentially at Ser-19 and is stimulated by calcium and calmodulin. The mRNA encoding DAPK is widely distributed and detected in mouse embryos and most adult tissues, although the expression of the encoded 160-kDa DAPK protein is more restricted. Overexpression of DAPK-alpha, the mouse homolog of human DAPK has a negligible effect on tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-induced apoptosis. Overexpression of DAPK-beta has a strong cytoprotective effect on TNF-treated cells. Biochemical analysis of TNF-treated cell lines expressing mouse DAPK-beta suggests that the cytoprotective effect of DAPK is mediated through both intrinsic and extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathways and results in the inhibition of cytochrome c release from the mitochondria as well as inhibition of caspase-3 and caspase-9 activity. These results suggest that the mouse DAPK-beta is a negative regulator of TNF-induced apoptosis. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a calmodulin-regulated serine/threonine kinase and possesses apoptotic and tumor-suppressive functions. However, it is unclear whether DAPK elicits apoptosis-independent activity to suppress tumor progression. We show that DAPK inhibits random migration by reducing directional persistence and directed migration by blocking cell polarization. These effects are mainly mediated by an inhibitory role of DAPK in talin head domain association with integrin, thereby suppressing the integrin–Cdc42 polarity pathway. We present evidence indicating that the antimigratory effect of DAPK represents a mechanism through which DAPK suppresses tumors. First, DAPK can block migration and invasion in certain tumor cells that are resistant to DAPK-induced apoptosis. Second, using an adenocarcinoma cell line and its highly invasive derivative, we demonstrate DAPK level as a determining factor in tumor invasiveness. Collectively, our study identifies a novel function of DAPK in regulating cell polarity during migration, which may act together with its apoptotic function to suppress tumor progression. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a calmodulin-regulated serine/threonine kinase and elicits tumor suppression function through inhibiting cell adhesion/migration and promoting apoptosis. Despite these biological functions, the signaling mechanisms through which DAPK is regulated remain largely elusive. Here, we show that the leukocyte common antigen-related (LAR) tyrosine phosphatase dephosphorylates DAPK at pY491/492 to stimulate the catalytic, proapoptotic, and antiadhesion/antimigration activities of DAPK. Conversely, Src phosphorylates DAPK at Y491/492, which induces DAPK intra-/intermolecular interaction and inactivation. Upon EGF stimulation, a rapid Src activation leads to subsequent LAR downregulation, and these two events act in synergism to inactivate DAPK, thereby facilitating tumor cell migration and invasion toward EGF. Finally, DAPK Y491/492 hyperphosphorylation is found in human cancers in which Src activity is aberrantly elevated. These results identify LAR and Src as a DAPK regulator through their reciprocal modification of DAPK Y491/492 residues and establish a functional link of this DAPK-regulatory circuit to tumor progression. 相似文献

Death associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK) is an important serine/theoreine kinase involved in various cellular processes such as apoptosis, autophagy and inflammation. DAPK expression and activity are misregulated in multiple diseases including cancer, neuronal death, stoke, et al. Methylation of the DAPK gene is common in many types of cancer and can lead to loss of DAPK expression. In this review, we summarize the pathological status and functional roles of DAPK in disease and compare the published reagents that can manipulate the expression or activity of DAPK. The pleiotropic functions of DAPK make it an intriguing target and the barriers and opportunities for targeting DAPK for future clinical application are discussed. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinases (DAPK) are serine/threonine protein kinases that have an important role in regulating cell death. In this study two antisense approaches were employed to down-regulate expression of the endogenous DAPK-alpha and DAPK-beta proteins. Transient expression of an antisense DAPK cDNA or antisense morpholino oligonucleotides in HeLa, 3T3, or primary human vascular smooth muscle cells demonstrate that decreased DAPK expression promotes a spontaneous, caspase-mediated apoptosis as evidenced by increased activities of caspases-3 and -9. Clonal HeLa cell lines with attenuated levels of DAPK expression, obtained following selection in the presence of antisense DAPK cDNA, are more sensitive to tumor necrosis factor-induced caspase-mediated apoptosis, and their sensitivity is inversely related to DAPK expression. In contrast, HeLa cells with reduced DAPK expression are moderately resistant to cell death induced by interferon-gamma. This finding is consistent with previous studies showing that DAPK has a role in promoting caspase-independent cell death. Together, these studies demonstrate that the cellular activities of DAPK are critical for antagonizing caspase-dependent apoptosis to promote cell survival under normal cell growth conditions. 相似文献

The viability of vertebrate cells depends on a complex signaling interplay between survival factors and cell-death effectors. Subtle changes in the equilibrium between these regulators can result in abnormal cell proliferation or cell death, leading to various pathological manifestations. Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a multidomain calcium/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent Ser/Thr protein kinase with an important role in apoptosis regulation and tumor suppression. The molecular signaling mechanisms regulating this kinase, however, remain unclear. Here, we show that DAPK is phosphorylated upon activation of the Ras-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. This correlates with the suppression of the apoptotic activity of DAPK. We demonstrate that DAPK is a novel target of p90 ribosomal S6 kinases (RSK) 1 and 2, downstream effectors of ERK1/2. Using mass spectrometry, we identified Ser-289 as a novel phosphorylation site in DAPK, which is regulated by RSK. Mutation of Ser-289 to alanine results in a DAPK mutant with enhanced apoptotic activity, whereas the phosphomimetic mutation (Ser289Glu) attenuates its apoptotic activity. Our results suggest that RSK-mediated phosphorylation of DAPK is a unique mechanism for suppressing the proapoptotic function of this death kinase in healthy cells as well as Ras/Raf-transformed cells. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a death domain-containing serine/threonine kinase, and participates in various apoptotic paradigms. Here, we identify the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) as a DAPK-interacting protein. DAPK interacts with ERK through a docking sequence within its death domain and is a substrate of ERK. Phosphorylation of DAPK at Ser 735 by ERK increases the catalytic activity of DAPK both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, DAPK promotes the cytoplasmic retention of ERK, thereby inhibiting ERK signaling in the nucleus. This reciprocal regulation between DAPK and ERK constitutes a positive feedback loop that ultimately promotes the apoptotic activity of DAPK. In a physiological apoptosis system where ERK-DAPK interplay is reinforced, downregulation of either ERK or DAPK suppresses such apoptosis. These results indicate that bidirectional signalings between DAPK and ERK may contribute to the apoptosis-promoting function of the death domain of DAPK. 相似文献

There is growing recognition that white matter pathology is a common feature in Alzheimer's disease. We have previously reported that the amyloid beta peptide (Abeta) induces apoptosis in oligodendrocytes (OLG), via activation of neutral sphingomyelinase (nSMase) and resultant generation of ceramide. In the current study, we report that both Abeta and ceramide increased expression of the proapoptotic protein DP5/Hrk (DP5), and release of cytochrome C from mitochondria to cytoplasm in OLGs. We provide evidence that the Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling pathway mediates Abeta- and ceramide-induced apoptosis: Both Abeta and ceramide activated JNK phosphorylation, and subsequent AP-1 DNA binding activity; JNK siRNA decreased AP-1 DNA binding, DP5 expression and reduced cell death. Furthermore, inhibition of nSMase attenuated Abeta-induced JNK phosphorylation, AP-1 DNA binding activity, DP5 expression, and cytochrome C release. Collectively, these results suggest that Abeta-induced apoptosis involves the sequential activation of nSMase with ceramide generation, JNK activation, AP-1 DNA binding, and DP5 expression. 相似文献

Ceramide has been implicated as an intermediate in the signal transduction of several cytokines including tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Both ceramide and TNF activate a wide variety of cellular responses, including NF-kappaB, AP-1, JNK, and apoptosis. Whether ceramide transduces these signals through the same mechanism as TNF is not known. In the present study we investigated the role of the T cell-specific tyrosine kinase p56(lck) in ceramide- and TNF-mediated cellular responses by comparing the responses of Jurkat T cells with JCaM1 cells, isogeneic Lck-deficient T cells. Treatment with ceramide activated NF-kappaB, degraded IkappaBalpha, and induced NF-kappaB-dependent reporter gene expression in a time-dependent manner in Jurkat cells but not in JCaM1 cells, suggesting the critical role of p56(lck) kinase. These effects were specific to ceramide, as activation of NF-kappaB by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, lipopolysaccharide, H(2)O(2), and TNF was minimally affected. p56(lck) was also found to be required for ceramide-induced but not TNF-induced AP-1 activation. Similarly, ceramide activated the protein kinases JNK and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase in Jurkat cells but not in JCaM1 cells. Ceramide also induced cytotoxicity and activated caspases and reactive oxygen intermediates in Jurkat cells but not in JCaM1 cells. Ceramide activated p56(lck) activity in Jurkat cells. Moreover, the reconstitution of JCaM1 cells with p56(lck) tyrosine kinase reversed the ceramide-induced NF-kappaB activation and cytotoxicity. Overall our results demonstrate that p56(lck) plays a critical role in the activation of NF-kappaB, AP-1, JNK, and apoptosis by ceramide but has minimal or no role in activation of these responses by TNF. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a multi-domain Ser/Thr protein kinase with an important role in apoptosis regulation. In these studies we have identified a DAPK-interacting protein called DIP-1, which is a novel multi-RING finger protein. The RING finger motifs of DIP-1 have E3 ligase activity that can auto-ubiquitinate DIP-1 in vitro. In vivo, DIP-1 is detected as a polyubiquitinated protein, suggesting that the intracellular levels of DIP-1 are regulated by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Transient expression of DIP-1 in HeLa cells antagonizes the anti-apoptotic function of DAPK to promote a caspase-dependent apoptosis. These studies also demonstrate that DAPK is an in vitro and in vivo target for ubiquitination by DIP-1, thereby providing a mechanism by which DAPK activities can be regulated through proteasomal degradation. 相似文献

Peptide hormones act to regulate apoptosis through activation of multiple pro- and anti-apoptotic signaling cascades of which lipid signaling events represent an important facet of the cellular rheostat that determines survival and death decisions. Activation of sphingomyelinase, which generates ceramide, is an intermediate in cellular stress responses and induction of apoptosis in many systems. Conversely, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is a critical signaling molecule involved in regulating cell survival and proliferation pathways. In the present study, we investigate cross-talk between the PI3K and sphingomyelinase pathways as a mechanism for regulation of cell survival/death decisions. We show that phorbol ester, insulin-like growth factor 1, and a constitutively active PI3K suppress both tumor necrosis factor-induced apoptosis and ceramide generation. Conversely, inhibition of the PI3K pathway with expression of a kinase-dead PI3K both prevented survival signaling and enhanced tumor necrosis factor-induced ceramide generation. The ability of exogenous sphingomyelinase to induce ceramide generation was partially suppressed by expression of constitutively active PI3K and enhanced by inhibition of PI3K suggesting that cross-talk between PI3K and ceramide generation within cells is regulated subsequent to activation of sphingomyelinase. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a tumor suppressor and negatively regulates several activation signals. Consistent with its potential anti-inflammatory activity, DAPK promotes the formation of IFN-γ-activated inhibitor of translation (GAIT) complex that suppresses the translation of selected inflammatory genes. DAPK has been found to inhibit tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)- or lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-induced NF-κB activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. Inflammation is always associated with T cell activation, while DAPK attenuates T cell activation by a selective suppression in T cell receptor-triggered NF-κB activation. Recent studies, however, also reveal a contribution of DAPK to pro-inflammatory processes. DAPK is shown to mediate pro-inflammatory signaling downstream of TNF-α, LPS, IL-17, or IL-32. In addition, DAPK is required for the full formation of NLRP3 inflammasome, essential for the generation of IL-1β and IL-18. These results suggest the complicated role of DAPK in the regulation of inflammation that is likely dependent on cell types and environmental cues. 相似文献

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) has been implicated in apoptosis and tumor suppression, depending on cellular conditions, and associated with mechanisms of disease. However, DAPK has not been characterized as an enzyme due to the lack of protein or peptide substrates. Therefore, we determined the structure of DAPK catalytic domain, used a homology model of docked peptide substrate, and synthesized positional scanning substrate libraries in order to discover peptide substrates with K(m) values in the desired 10 microm range and to obtain knowledge about the preferences of DAPK for phosphorylation site sequences. Mutagenesis of DAPK catalytic domain at amino acids conserved among protein kinases or unique to DAPK provided a link between structure and activity. An enzyme assay for DAPK was developed and used to measure activity in adult brain and monitor protein purification based on the physical and chemical properties of the open reading frame of the DAPK cDNA. The results allow insight into substrate preferences and regulation of DAPK, provide a foundation for proteomic investigations and inhibitor discovery, and demonstrate the utility of the experimental approach, which can be extended potentially to kinase open reading frames identified by genome sequencing projects or functional genetics screens and lacking a known substrate. 相似文献

The tumor suppressor death-associated protein kinase targets to TCR-stimulated NF-kappa B activation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a unique multidomain kinase acting both as a tumor suppressor and an apoptosis inducer. The molecular mechanism underlying the effector function of DAPK is not fully understood, while the role of DAPK in T lymphocyte activation is mostly unknown. DAPK was activated after TCR stimulation. Through the expression of a dominant-negative and a constitutively active form of DAPK in T cells, we found that DAPK negatively regulated T cell activation. DAPK markedly affected T cell proliferation and IL-2 production. We identified TCR-induced NF-kappaB activation as a target of DAPK. In contrast, IL-1beta- and TNF-alpha-triggered NF-kappaB activation was not affected by DAPK. We further found that DAPK selectively modulated the TCR-induced translocation of protein kinase Ctheta, Bcl-10, and IkappaB kinase into membrane rafts. Notably, the effect of DAPK on the raft entry was specific for the NF-kappaB pathway, as other raft-associated molecules, such as linker for activation of T cells, were not affected. Our results clearly demonstrate that DAPK is a novel regulator targeted to TCR-activated NF-kappaB and T cell activation. 相似文献

DAPK catalytic activity in the hippocampus increases during the recovery phase in an animal model of brain hypoxic-ischemic injury 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Death-associated protein kinase (DAPK) is a pro-apoptotic, calmodulin (CaM)-regulated protein kinase whose mRNA levels increase following cerebral ischemia. However, the relationship between DAPK catalytic activity and cerebral ischemia is not known. This knowledge is critical as DAPK function is dependent on the catalytic activity of its kinase domain. Consequently, we examined DAPK catalytic activity in a rat model of neonatal cerebral hypoxia-ischemia (HI). An increase in DAPK specific activity was found in homogenates of the hippocampus from the injured right hemisphere, compared to the uninjured left hemisphere, 7 days after injury. The results raised the possibility that an upregulation of DAPK activity might be associated with the recovery phase of HI, during which neuronal repair and differentiation are initiated. Therefore, we examined the change of DAPK in an experimentally tractable cell culture model of neuronal differentiation. We found that DAPK catalytic activity and protein levels increase after nerve growth factor (NGF)-induced differentiation of rat PC12 cells. These results suggest that DAPK may have a previously unappreciated role in neuronal development or recovery from injury, and that potential future therapies targeting DAPK should consider a restricted time window. 相似文献
