Sphingolipids are ubiquitous components of cell membranes and their metabolites ceramide (Cer), sphingosine (Sph), and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) have important physiological functions, including regulation of cell growth and survival. Cer and Sph are associated with growth arrest and apoptosis. Many stress stimuli increase levels of Cer and Sph, whereas suppression of apoptosis is associated with increased intracellular levels of S1P. In addition, extracellular/secreted S1P regulates cellular processes by binding to five specific G protein coupled-receptors (GPCRs). S1P is generated by phosphorylation of Sph catalyzed by two isoforms of sphingosine kinases (SphK), type 1 and type 2, which are critical regulators of the “sphingolipid rheostat”, producing pro-survival S1P and decreasing levels of pro-apoptotic Sph. Since sphingolipid metabolism is often dysregulated in many diseases, targeting SphKs is potentially clinically relevant. Here we review the growing recent literature on the regulation and the roles of SphKs and S1P in apoptosis and diseases. 相似文献

Tumor necrosis factor alpha suppresses the induction of connective tissue growth factor by transforming growth factor-beta in normal and scleroderma fibroblasts 总被引:30,自引:0,他引:30

Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) is overexpressed in a variety of fibrotic disorders, presumably secondary to the activation and production of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), a key inducer of fibroblast proliferation and matrix synthesis. The CTGF gene promoter has a TGF-beta response element that regulates its expression in fibroblasts but not epithelial cells or lymphocytes. Recent studies have shown that the macrophage-produced cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) is necessary to promote inflammation and to induce genes, such as matrix metalloproteinases, involved with the early stages of wound healing. In this study, we examined the ability of TNFalpha to modulate CTGF gene expression. TNFalpha was found to suppress the TGF-beta-induced expression of CTGF protein in cultured normal fibroblasts. The activity of TNFalpha was blocked by NF-kappaB inhibitors. We showed that sequences between -244 and -166 of the CTGF promoter were necessary for both TGF-beta and TNFalpha to modulate CTGF expression. There was a constitutive expression of CTGF by scleroderma fibroblasts that was increased by TGF-beta treatment. Although TNFalpha was able to repress TGF-beta-induced CTGF and collagen synthesis both in normal and scleroderma skin fibroblasts, fibroblasts cultured from scleroderma patients were more resistant to TNFalpha as TNFalpha was unable to suppress the basal level of CTGF expression in scleroderma fibroblasts. Thus, we suspect that the high level of constitutive CTGF expression in scleroderma fibroblasts and its inability to respond to negative regulatory cytokines may contribute to the excessive scarring of skin and internal organs in patients with scleroderma. 相似文献

Sphingosine-1-phosphate: dual messenger functions 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
The sphingolipid metabolite sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a serum-borne lipid that regulates many vital cellular processes. S1P is the ligand of a family of five specific G protein-coupled receptors that are differentially expressed in different tissues and regulate diverse cellular actions. Much less is known of the intracellular actions of S1P. It has been suggested that S1P may also function as an intracellular second messenger to regulate calcium mobilization, cell growth and suppression of apoptosis in response to a variety of extracellular stimuli. Dissecting the dual actions and identification of intracellular targets of S1P has been challenging, but there is ample evidence to suggest that the balance between S1P and ceramide and/or sphingosine levels in cells is an important determinant of cell fate. 相似文献

Sphingosine kinase type 1 promotes estrogen-dependent tumorigenesis of breast cancer MCF-7 cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The sphingolipid metabolite, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), formed by phosphorylation of sphingosine, has been implicated in cell growth, suppression of apoptosis, and angiogenesis. In this study, we have examined the contribution of intracellular S1P to tumorigenesis of breast adenocarcinoma MCF-7 cells. Enforced expression of sphingosine kinase type 1 (SPHK1) increased S1P levels and blocked MCF-7 cell death induced by anti-cancer drugs, sphingosine, and TNF-alpha. SPHK1 also conferred a growth advantage, as determined by proliferation and growth in soft agar, which was estrogen dependent. While both ERK and Akt have been implicated in MCF-7 cell growth, SPHK1 stimulated ERK1/2 but had no effect on Akt. Surprisingly, parental growth of MCF-7 cells was only weakly stimulated by S1P or dihydro-S1P, ligands for the S1P receptors which usually mediate growth effects. When injected into mammary fat pads of ovariectomized nude mice implanted with estrogen pellets, MCF-7/SPHK1 cells formed more and larger tumors than vector transfectants with higher microvessel density in their periphery. Collectively, our results suggest that SPHK1 may play an important role in breast cancer progression by regulating tumor cell growth and survival. 相似文献

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid with a variety of biological activities.It is generated from the conversion of ceramide to sphingosine by ceramidase and the subsequent conversion of sphingosine to S1P,which is catalyzed by sphingosine kinases.Through increasing its intracellular levels by sphingolipid metabolism and binding to its cell surface receptors,S1P regulates several physiological and pathological processes,including cell proliferation,migration,angiogenesis and autophagy.These processes are responsible for tumor growth,metastasis and invasion and promote tumor survival.Since ceramide and S1P have distinct functions in regulating in cell fate decision,the balance between the ceramide/sphingosine/S1P rheostat becomes a potent therapeutic target for cancer cells.Herein,we summarize our current understanding of S1P signaling on tumorigenesis and its potential as a target for cancer therapy. 相似文献

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) and ceramide have been implicated in both autophagy and apoptosis. However, the roles of these sphingolipid metabolites in the links between these two processes are not completely understood. Depletion of S1P phosphohydrolase-1 (SPP1), which degrades intracellular S1P, induces the unfolded protein response and endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced autophagy (Lépine, S., Allegood, J. C., Park, M., Dent, P., Milstien, S., and Spiegel, S. (2011) Cell Death Differ. 18, 350-361). Surprisingly, however, treatment with doxorubicin, which by itself also induced autophagy, markedly reduced the extent of autophagy mediated by depletion of SPP1. Concomitantly, doxorubicin-induced apoptosis was greatly enhanced by down-regulation of SPP1. Autophagy and apoptosis seemed to be sequentially linked because inhibiting autophagy with 3-methyladenine also markedly attenuated apoptosis. Moreover, silencing Atg5 or the three sensors of the unfolded protein response, IRE1α, ATF6, and PKR-like eIF2α kinase (PERK), significantly decreased both autophagy and apoptosis. Doxorubicin stimulated calpain activity and Atg5 cleavage, which were significantly enhanced in SPP1-depleted cells. Inhibition or depletion of calpain not only suppressed Atg5 cleavage, it also markedly decreased the robust apoptosis induced by doxorubicin in SPP1-deficient cells. Importantly, doxorubicin also increased de novo synthesis of the pro-apoptotic sphingolipid metabolite ceramide. Elevation of ceramide in turn stimulated calpain; conversely, inhibiting ceramide formation suppressed Atg5 cleavage and apoptosis. Hence, doxorubicin switches protective autophagy in SPP1-depleted cells to apoptosis by calpain-mediated Atg5 cleavage. 相似文献

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a bioactive sphingolipid metabolite that regulates diverse biological processes by binding to a family of G protein-coupled receptors or as an intracellular second messenger. Mammalian S1P phosphatase (SPP-1), which degrades S1P to terminate its actions, was recently cloned based on homology to a lipid phosphohydrolase that regulates the levels of phosphorylated sphingoid bases in yeast. Confocal microscopy surprisingly revealed that epitope-tagged SPP-1 is intracellular and colocalized with the ER marker calnexin. Moreover, SPP-1 activity and protein appeared to be mainly enriched in the intracellular membranes with lower expression in the plasma membrane. Treatment of SPP-1 transfectants with S1P markedly increased ceramide levels, predominantly in the intracellular membranes, diminished survival, and enhanced apoptosis. Remarkably, dihydro-S1P, although a good substrate for SPP-1 in situ, did not cause significant ceramide accumulation or increase apoptosis. Ceramide accumulation induced by S1P was completely blocked by fumonisin B1, an inhibitor of ceramide synthase, but only partially reduced by myriocin, an inhibitor of serine palmitoyltransferase, the first committed step in de novo synthesis of ceramide. Furthermore, S1P, but not dihydro-S1P, stimulated incorporation of [3H]palmitate, a substrate for both serine palmitoyltransferase and ceramide synthase, into C16-ceramide. Collectively, our results suggest that SPP-1 functions in an unprecedented manner to regulate sphingolipid biosynthesis and is poised to influence cell fate. 相似文献

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Death receptors (DRs) induce intracellular signalling upon engagement of their cognate ligands, leading to apoptosis, cell survival or pro-inflammatory responses. In mammals, DR signalling is mediated by the recruitment of several DD (death domain)-containing molecules, such as FADD (Fas-associated DD) and RIP1 (receptor-interacting protein 1). RESULTS: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of intracellular DR signalling in Xenopus, we have isolated cDNAs encoding xFADD (Xenopus FADD), and xRIP1 and its short isoform xRIP1beta, which is produced by alternative splicing of the xRIP1 gene. These DD-containing proteins interacted with Xenopus DR members xDR-M1 and xDR-M2 through their DDs in co-transfected HEK-293T cells. Overexpression of xFADD activated not only xCaspase 8, but also AP-1 (activator protein 1), which reflects activation of JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) and NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB). A comparative analysis of xRIP1, a kinase-dead mutant of xRIP1 and xRIP1beta indicated that the kinase activity of xRIP1 was required for the activation of AP-1 and NF-kappaB. Interestingly, xFADD and xRIP1 interacted with each other via their DDs, and the expression of a mutant xRIP1 containing only the DD (xRIP1-DD) repressed the xFADD-induced activation of NF-kappaB and AP-1. xFADD and xRIP1 synergistically induced the activation of AP-1 and NF-kappaB, both of which were partially mediated by TRAF2 (tumour-necrosis-factor-receptor-associated factor 2) and TAK1 (transforming-growth-factor-beta-activated kinase 1). We also found that the activation pathways of NF-kappaB induced by xDR-M2 were inhibited by xRIP1-DD. CONCLUSIONS: Xenopus FADD, RIP1 and its splice variant RIP1beta have been characterized. Interaction of xFADD and xRIP1 induced synergistic activation of JNK and NF-kappaB. In addition, the NF-kappaB activation induced by xDR-M2 was partially mediated by xRIP1. 相似文献

Fumonisin B1 (FB1), the most potent of the fumonisin mycotoxins, is a carcinogen and causes a wide range of species-specific toxicoses. FB1 modulates the activity of protein kinase C (PKC), a family of phospholipid-dependent serine/threonine kinases that play important role in modulating a variety of biologic responses ranging from regulation of cell growth to cell death. Although it has been demonstrated that FB1 induces apoptosis in many cell lines, the precise mechanism of apoptosis is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the membrane localization of various PKC isoforms, PKC enzyme activity, and its downstream targets, namely nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), and caspase 3, in porcine renal epithelial (LLC-PK1) cells. FB1 repressed cytosol to membrane translocation of PKC-alpha, -delta, -epsilon, and -zeta isoforms over 24-72 h. The FB1-induced membrane PKC repression was corroborated by a concentration-dependent decrease in total PKC activity. Exposure of cells to phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) for this duration also resulted in repressed PKC membrane localization and activity comparable to FB1. Exposure of cells to FB1 (10 microM) was associated with inhibition of cytosol to nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB and NF-kappaB-DNA binding at 72 h. The expression of TNFalpha was significantly inhibited at 24 and 48 h in response to 1 and 10 microM FB1. Increased caspase 3 activity was observed in LLC-PK1 cells exposed to > or =1 microM FB1 at 48 h. PMA also increased the caspase 3 activity at 24 and 48 h. Results suggest that FB1-induced apoptosis involves the activation of caspase 3, which is associated with the repression of PKC and possibly its down-stream effectors, NF-kappaB and TNFalpha. 相似文献

Fumonisin B1 (FB1) is a toxic mycotoxin produced by Fusarium verticillioides, predominantly present in corn. The principal biochemical responses of FB1 involve disruption of sphingolipid metabolism from the inhibition of ceramide synthesis leading to accumulation of free sphingoid bases, particularly sphinganine. The ability of FB1 to modulate signal transduction pathways plays a role in its toxicity. We recently reported that FB1 selectively and transiently activates protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) in porcine renal epithelial cells (LLC-PK1). The aim of current study was to investigate the effect of PKCalpha activation by FB1 on NF-kappaB activation and subsequently on TNFalpha gene expression and caspase 3 induction in LLC-PK1 cells. FB1 (1 micromol/L for 5 min) transiently activated PKCalpha and increased nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB, followed by their down-regulation at later time points. Preincubating the cells with the PKC inhibitor, calphostin C, prevented the activation of NF-kappaB by FB1. TNFalpha mRNA expression was increased after 15 min exposure to FB1 or the PKC activator, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. In addition, an increase in caspase 3 activity was observed after addition of FB1 for 1 h. Calphostin C prevented both the FB1-induced increase in TNFalpha expression and caspase 3 activation. In summary, we hereby demonstrate that the FB1 activation of NF-kappaB and sequential induction of TNFalpha expression resulting in the subsequent increase in caspase 3 activity are all dependent on PKCalpha stimulation in LLC-PK1 cells. 相似文献

Recently NF-kappaB has been shown to have both proapoptotic and antiapoptotic functions. In T cell hybridomas, both T cell activators and glucocorticoids induce apoptosis. Here we show that blockade of NF-kappaB activity, using a dominant negative IkappaBalpha, has opposite effects on these two apoptotic signals. Treatment with PMA plus ionomycin (P/I) results in the upregulation of Fas Ligand (FasL) and induction of apoptosis. Inhibition of NF-kappaB activity inhibits the P/I mediated induction of FasL mRNA and decreases the level of apoptosis in these cultures, thus establishing NF-kappaB as a proapoptotic factor in this context. Conversely, inhibition of NF-kappaB confers a tenfold increase in glucocorticoid mediated apoptosis, establishing that NF-kappaB also functions as an antiapoptotic factor. We conclude that NF-kappaB is a context-dependent apoptosis regulator. Our data suggests that NF-kappaB may function as an antiapoptotic factor in thymocytes while functioning as a proapoptotic factor in mature peripheral T cells. 相似文献
