The cytoplasmic domain of the human type I IFN receptor chain 2 (IFNAR2c or IFN-alphaRbetaL) was used as bait in a yeast two-hybrid system to identify novel proteins interacting with this region of the receptor. We report here a specific interaction between the cytoplasmic domain of IFN-alphaRbetaL and a previously identified protein, RACK-1 (receptor for activated C kinase). Using GST fusion proteins encoding different regions of the cytoplasmic domain of IFN-alphaRbetaL, the minimum site for RACK-1 binding was mapped to aa 300-346. RACK-1 binding to IFN-alphaRbetaL did not require the first 91 aa of RACK-1, which includes two WD domains, WD1 and WD2. The interaction between RACK-1 and IFN-alphaRbetaL, but not the human IFN receptor chain 1 (IFNAR1 or IFN-alphaRalpha), was also detected in human Daudi cells by coimmunoprecipitation. RACK-1 was shown to be constitutively associated with IFN-alphaRbetaL, and this association was not effected by stimulation of Daudi cells with type I IFNs (IFN-beta1b). RACK-1 itself did not become tyrosine phosphorylated upon stimulation of Daudi cells with IFN-beta1b. However, stimulation of cells with either IFN-beta1b or PMA did result in an increase in detectable immunofluorescence and intracellular redistribution of RACK-1. 相似文献

Nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) plays a key role in T cell activation. The activation of NFAT involves calcium- and calcineurin-dependent dephosphorylation and nuclear translocation from the cytoplasm, a process that is opposed by protein kinases. We show here that the peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase Pin1 interacts specifically with the phosphorylated form of NFAT. The NFAT-Pin1 interaction is mediated through the WW domain of Pin1 and the serine-proline-rich domains of NFAT. Furthermore, binding of Pin1 to NFAT inhibits the calcineurin-mediated dephosphorylation of NFAT in vitro, and overexpression of Pin1 in T cells inhibits calcium-dependent activation of NFAT in vivo. These results suggest a possible role for Pin1 in the regulation of NFAT in T cells. 相似文献

Calcineurin is a serine/threonine protein phosphatase that plays a critical role in many physiologic processes, such as T-cell activation, apoptosis, skeletal myocyte differentiation, and cardiac hypertrophy. We determined that active MEKK3 was capable of activating calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT) signaling in cardiac myocytes and reprogramming cardiac gene expression. In contrast, small interference RNA directed against MEKK3 and a dominant negative form of MEKK3 caused the reduction of NFAT activation in response to angiotensin II in cardiac myocytes. Genetic studies showed that MEKK3-deficient mouse embryo fibroblasts failed to activate calcineurin/NFAT in response to angiotensin II, a potent NFAT activator. Conversely, restoring MEKK3 to the MEKK3-deficient cells restored angiotensin II-mediated calcineurin/NFAT activation. We determined that angiotensin II induced MEKK3 phosphorylation. Thus, MEKK3 functions downstream of the AT1 receptor and is essential for calcineurin/NFAT activation. Finally, we determined that MEKK3-mediated activation of calcineurin/NFAT signaling was associated with the phosphorylation of modulatory calcineurin-interacting protein 1 at Ser(108) and Ser(112). Taken together, our studies reveal a previously unrecognized novel essential regulatory role of MEKK3 signaling in calcineurin/NFAT activation. 相似文献

It has recently been suggested that estrogen inhibits glial activation and the release of neurotoxic mediators. The mechanisms involved in this anti-inflammatory effect are unclear. We found that an nM concentration of 17-beta estradiol inhibits protein kinaseC-betaII translocation induced by lipopolysaccharide in primary astrocytes. Estradiol treatment did not change the total content of kinaseC-betaII or of lipopolysaccharide receptor, but dose-dependently reduced the levels of receptors for activated C kinases-1 (RACK-1), the anchoring protein involved in protein kinase C (PKC) shuttling. This decrease could thus account for the defective protein kinaseC-betaII activation. Pre-treatment with 1 nmbeta-estradiol, which reduced by approximately 35% the expression of RACK-1, prevented the lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of tumour necrosis factor-alpha mRNA and of the inducible form of nitric oxide (NO) synthase. As a consequence, the production of tumour necrosis factor-alpha and NO were decreased. An antisense oligonucleotide for RACK-1 also reduced tumour necrosis factor-alpha and nitric oxide production on lipopolysaccharide stimulation. These results demonstrate that estrogen reduction of the RACK-1 expression, leading to a defective protein kinase-C activation counteracts the inflammatory response in astrocytes. 相似文献

Flagellin, the structural component of bacterial flagella, is secreted by pathogenic and commensal bacteria, and is recognized by Toll-like receptor (TLR) 5. Flagellin is a common bacterial antigen present on most motile bacteria and is speculated to contribute to the activation of CD4+ T cells in the intestine. However, molecular mechanisms by which flagellin regulate T cell activation remains to be determined. Using Jurkat T cells or human primary T cell, we showed that flagellin stimulation induced tyrosine phosphorylation of TLR5 and activation of both mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor kappaB. In addition, stimulation by flagellin did not induce nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) activation, while stimulation via the T cell receptor (TCR) leads to activation of NFAT. However, TCR-mediated NFAT activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of zeta-associated protein 70 (Zap-70) were inhibited in cells pre-stimulated by flagellin. Furthermore, flagellin stimulation induced suppressor of cytokine signalling-1 (SOCS-1), which formed a complex with Zap-70 after stimulation via TCR, and inhibition of SOCS-1 expression by SOCS-1-specific small interfering RNA reinstated TCR-mediated activation of NFAT in cells pre-stimulated with flagellin. These results collectively indicate that bacterial flagellin inhibits TCR-mediated activation of T cells by inducing SOCS-1. 相似文献
