The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and the non-receptor protein tyrosine kinases Src and Pyk2 have been implicated in linking a variety of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) to the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase signaling cascade. In this report we apply a genetic strategy using cells isolated from Src-, Pyk2-, or EGFR-deficient mice to explore the roles played by these protein tyrosine kinases in GPCR-induced activation of EGFR, Pyk2, and MAP kinase. We show that Src kinases are critical for activation of Pyk2 in response to GPCR-stimulation and that Pyk2 and Src are essential for GPCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR. By contrast, Pyk2, Src, and EGFR are dispensable for GPCR-induced activation of MAP kinase. Moreover, GPCR-induced MAP kinase activation is normal in fibroblasts deficient in both Src and Pyk2 (Src-/-Pyk2-/- cells) as well as in fibroblasts deficient in all three Src kinases expressed in these cells (Src-/-Yes-/-Fyn-/- cells). Finally, experiments are presented demonstrating that, upon stimulation of GPCR, activated Pyk2 forms a complex with Src, which in turn phosphorylates EGFR directly. These experiments reveal a role for Src kinases in Pyk2 activation and a role for Pyk2 and Src in tyrosine phosphorylation of EGFR following GPCR stimulation. In addition, EGFR, Src family kinases, and Pyk2 are not required for linking GPCRs with the MAP kinase signaling cascade.  相似文献

The role of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) in maintaining undifferentiated human embryonic stem cells (hESC) was investigated using a targeted phosphoproteomics approach to specifically profile tyrosine phosphorylation events following FGF-2 stimulation. A cumulative total number of 735 unique tyrosine phosphorylation sites on 430 proteins were identified, by far the largest inventory to date for hESC. Early signaling events in FGF-2 stimulated hESC were quantitatively monitored using stable isotope dimethyl labeling, resulting in temporal tyrosine phosphorylation profiles of 316 unique phosphotyrosine peptides originating from 188 proteins. Apart from the rapid activation of all four FGF receptors, trans-activation of several other receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) was observed as well as induced tyrosine phosphorylation of downstream proteins such as PI3-K, MAPK and several Src family members. Both PI3-K and MAPK have been linked to hESC maintenance through FGF-2 mediated signaling. The observed activation of the Src kinase family members by FGF-2 and loss of pluripotent marker expression post Src kinase inhibition may point to the regulation of cytoskeletal and actin depending processes to maintain undifferentiated hESC.  相似文献

GRK2 is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK) family, which phosphorylates the activated form of a variety of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) and plays an important role in GPCR modulation. It has been recently reported that stimulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade by GPCRs involves tyrosine phosphorylation of docking proteins mediated by members of the Src tyrosine kinase family. In this report, we have investigated the possible role of c-Src in modulating GRK2 function. We demonstrate that c-Src can directly phosphorylate GRK2 on tyrosine residues, as shown by in vitro experiments with purified proteins. The phosphorylation reaction exhibits an apparent K(m) for GRK2 of 12 nM, thus suggesting a physiological relevance in living cells. Consistently, overexpression of the constitutively active c-Src Y527F mutant in COS-7 cells leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of co-expressed GRK2. In addition, GRK2 can be detected in phosphotyrosine immunoprecipitates from HEK-293 cells transiently transfected with this Src mutant. Interestingly, phosphotyrosine immunoblots reveal a rapid and transient increase in GRK2 phosphorylation upon agonist stimulation of beta(2)-adrenergic receptors co-transfected with GRK2 and wild type c-Src in COS-7 cells. This tyrosine phosphorylation is maximal within 5 min of isoproterenol stimulation and reaches values of approximately 5-fold over basal conditions. Furthermore, GRK2 phosphorylation on tyrosine residues promotes an increased kinase activity toward its substrates. Our results suggest that GRK2 phosphorylation by c-Src is inherent to GPCR activation and put forward a new mechanism for the regulation of GPCR signaling.  相似文献

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in cancer metastasis. Here, we investigated the effect of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) on the secretion of type IV collagenases (MMP-2, MMP-9) in breast cancer MCF-7 cells. As shown by gelatin zymography, both FGF-2 and TPA stimulated the secretion of MMP-9 in MCF-7 cells while they did not change the level of MMP-2 secretion. Signaling cascade studies indicated that both FGF-2 and TPA induced Ras activation, c-Raf phosphorylation, mitogen-activated protein kinase/ERK kinase (MEK(1/2)) phosphorylation, and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK(1/2)) phosphorylation. The FGF-2- and TPA-induced MMP-9 secretion was significantly inhibited by transient transfection of MCF-7 cells with dominant negative Ras (Ras-N17) and by treatment with MEK(1/2) inhibitor PD98059. A pan-protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, GF109203X, was found to totally abolish the FGF-2- and TPA-induced MMP-9 secretion and ERK(1/2) phosphorylation. Use of isoform-specific PKC inhibitors such as Rotllerin and G?6976 suggested, moreover, that the PKC-delta isoform is a likely component of FGF-2 and TPA trophic signaling. These results demonstrated that FGF-2 and TPA induce MMP-9 secretion in MCF-7 cells mainly through PKC-dependent activation of the Ras/ERK(1/2) signaling pathway.  相似文献

The amplitude of signaling evoked by stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors may be controlled in part by the GTPase accelerating activity of the regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins. In turn, subcellular targeting, protein-protein interactions, or post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation may shape RGS activity and specificity. We found previously that RGS16 undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation on conserved tyrosine residues in the RGS box. Phosphorylation on Tyr(168) was mediated by the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). We show here that endogenous RGS16 is phosphorylated after epidermal growth factor stimulation of MCF-7 cells. In addition, p60-Src or Lyn kinase phosphorylated recombinant RGS16 in vitro, and RGS16 underwent phosphorylation in the presence of constitutively active Src (Y529F) in EGFR(-) CHO-K1 cells. Blockade of endogenous Src activity by selective inhibitors attenuated RGS16 phosphorylation induced by pervanadate or receptor stimulation. Furthermore, the rate of RGS16 degradation was reduced in cells expressing active Src or treated with pervanadate or a G protein-coupled receptor ligand (CXCL12). Induction of RGS16 tyrosine phosphorylation was associated with increased RGS16 protein levels and enhanced GAP activity in cell membranes. These results suggest that Src mediates RGS16 tyrosine phosphorylation, which may promote RGS16 stability.  相似文献

Carbachol (Cch), a muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (mAChR) agonist, increases intracellular-free Ca(2+) mobilization and induces mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) phosphorylation in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. Pretreatment of cells with the selective phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitor U73122, or incubation of cells in a Ca(2+)-free medium did not alter Cch-stimulated MAPK/ERK phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of MAPK/ERK was mimicked by phorbol 12-myristate acetate (PMA), an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), but Cch-evoked MAPK/ERK activation was unaffected by down-regulation of PKC or by pretreatment of cells with GF109203X, a PKC inhibitor. However, Cch-stimulated MAPK/ERK phosphorylation was completely blocked by myristoylated PKC-zeta pseudosubstrate, a specific inhibitor of PKC-zeta, and high doses of staurosporine. Pretreatment of human breast cancer cells with wortmannin or LY294002, selective inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), diminished Cch-mediated MAPK/ERK phosphorylation. Similar results were observed when MCF-7 cells were pretreated with genistein, a non-selective inhibitor of tyrosine kinases, or with the specific Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP2. Moreover, in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells mAChR stimulation induced an increase of protein synthesis and cell proliferation, and these effects were prevented by PD098059, a specific inhibitor of the mitogen activated kinase kinase. In conclusion, analyses of mAChR downstream effectors reveal that PKC-zeta, PI3K, and Src family of tyrosine kinases, but not intracellular-free Ca(2+) mobilization or conventional and novel PKC activation, are key molecules in the signal cascade leading to MAPK/ERK activation. In addition, MAPK/ERK are involved in the regulation of growth and proliferation of MCF-7 human breast cancer cells.  相似文献

Bromocriptine, acting through the dopamine D2 receptor, provides robust protection against apoptosis induced by oxidative stress in PC12-D2R and immortalized nigral dopamine cells. We now report the characterization of the D2 receptor signaling pathways mediating the cytoprotection. Bromocriptine caused protein kinase B (Akt) activation in PC12-D2R cells and the inhibition of either phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), or c-Src eliminated the Akt activation and the cytoprotective effects of bromocriptine against oxidative stress. Co-immunoprecipitation studies showed that the D2 receptor forms a complex with the EGFR and c-Src that was augmented by bromocriptine, suggesting a cross-talk between these proteins in mediating the activation of Akt. EGFR repression by inhibitor or by RNA interference eliminated the activation of Akt by bromocriptine. D2 receptor stimulation by bromocriptine induced c-Src tyrosine 418 phosphorylation and EGFR phosphorylation specifically at tyrosine 845, a known substrate of Src kinase. Furthermore, Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor or dominant negative Src interfered with Akt translocation and phosphorylation. Thus, the predominant signaling cascade mediating cytoprotection by the D2 receptor involves c-Src/EGFR transactivation by D2 receptor, activating PI 3-kinase and Akt. We also found that the agonist pramipexole failed to stimulate activation of Akt in PC12-D2R cells, providing an explanation for our previous observations that, despite efficiently activating G-protein signaling, this agonist had little cytoprotective activity in this experimental system. These results support the hypothesis that specific dopamine agonists stabilize distinct conformations of the D2 receptor that differ in their coupling to G-proteins and to a cytoprotective c-Src/EGFR-mediated PI-3 kinase/Akt pathway.  相似文献

Fibronectin receptor integrin-mediated cell adhesion triggers intracellular signaling events such as the activation of the Ras/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade. In this study, we show that the nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinases (PTKs) c-Src and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can be independently activated after fibronectin (FN) stimulation and that their combined activity promotes signaling to extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2)/MAP kinase through multiple pathways upstream of Ras. FN stimulation of NIH 3T3 fibroblasts promotes c-Src and FAK association in the Triton-insoluble cell fraction, and the time course of FN-stimulated ERK2 activation paralleled that of Grb2 binding to FAK at Tyr-925 and Grb2 binding to Shc. Cytochalasin D treatment of fibroblasts inhibited FN-induced FAK in vitro kinase activity and signaling to ERK2, but it only partially inhibited c-Src activation. Treatment of fibroblasts with protein kinase C inhibitors or with the PTK inhibitor herbimycin A or PP1 resulted in reduced Src PTK activity, no Grb2 binding to FAK, and lowered levels of ERK2 activation. FN-stimulated FAK PTK activity was not significantly affected by herbimycin A treatment and, under these conditions, FAK autophosphorylation promoted Shc binding to FAK. In vitro, FAK directly phosphorylated Shc Tyr-317 to promote Grb2 binding, and in vivo Grb2 binding to Shc was observed in herbimycin A-treated fibroblasts after FN stimulation. Interestingly, c-Src in vitro phosphorylation of Shc promoted Grb2 binding to both wild-type and Phe-317 Shc. In vivo, Phe-317 Shc was tyrosine phosphorylated after FN stimulation of human 293T cells and its expression did not inhibit signaling to ERK2. Surprisingly, expression of Phe-925 FAK with Phe-317 Shc also did not block signaling to ERK2, whereas FN-stimulated signaling to ERK2 was inhibited by coexpression of an SH3 domain-inactivated mutant of Grb2. Our studies show that FN receptor integrin signaling upstream of Ras and ERK2 does not follow a linear pathway but that, instead, multiple Grb2-mediated interactions with Shc, FAK, and perhaps other yet-to-be-determined phosphorylated targets represent parallel signaling pathways that cooperate to promote maximal ERK2 activation.  相似文献

The mechanisms leading to focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activation remain obscure. We have investigated the role of the adaptor protein Shb in cell spreading and the regulation of FAK phosphorylation in immortalised brain endothelial (IBE) cells. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) stimulation lead to a direct association between Shb and FAK, which was mediated by the phosphotyrosine binding (PTB) domain of Shb. IBE cells overexpressing wild-type or R522K Shb (with an inactive Src homology 2 (SH2) domain) displayed increased FAK phosphorylation as well as enhanced spreading when seeded on collagen. FGF-2-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shb was dependent upon Src activity but independent of FAK activation. The use of Rat-1 fibroblasts overexpressing a temperature sensitive v-Src (tsLA29) confirmed that active Src enhanced Shb phosphorylation. The data indicate that Shb binds directly to FAK and regulates its phosphorylation leading to enhanced cell spreading in a Src-dependent manner.  相似文献

The growth hormone receptor (GHR), a cytokine receptor superfamily member, requires the JAK2 tyrosine kinase for signaling. We now examine functional interactions between growth hormone (GH) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) in 3T3-F442A fibroblasts. Although EGF enhanced ErbB-2 tyrosine phosphorylation, GH, while causing retardation of its migration on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, decreased ErbB-2's tyrosine phosphorylation. GH-induced retardation was reversed by treatment of anti-ErbB-2 precipitates with both alkaline phosphatase and protein phosphatase 2A, suggesting that GH induced serine/threonine phosphorylation of ErbB-2. Both GH-induced shift in ErbB-2 migration and GH-induced MAP kinase activation were unaffected by a protein kinase C inhibitor but were blocked by the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) inhibitor, PD98059. Notably, leukemia inhibitory factor, but not interferon-gamma, also promoted ErbB-2 shift and mitogen-activated protein kinase activation. Cotreatment with EGF and GH versus EGF alone resulted in a 35% decline in acute ErbB-2 tyrosine 1248 autophosphorylation, a marked decline (approximately 50%) in DNA synthesis, and substantially decreased cyclin D1 expression. We conclude that in 3T3-F442A cells, 1) the GH-induced decrease in ErbB-2 tyrosine phosphorylation correlates with MEK1/mitogen-activated protein kinase activity and 2) GH antagonizes EGF-induced DNA synthesis and cyclin D1 expression in a pattern consistent with its alteration in ErbB-2 phosphorylation status.  相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase mediates cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell survival by regulating signaling pathways activated by receptor protein tyrosine kinases (RPTKs), including the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-IR). We analyzed the upstream signaling components of the MAP kinase pathway, including RPTKs, in human breast cancer cell lines and found that some of those components were overexpressed. Importantly, signaling molecules such as IGF-IR, insulin receptor, and insulin receptor substrate 1, leading to the MAP kinase pathway, were found to be concomitantly overexpressed within certain tumor lines, i.e., MCF-7 and T-47D. When compared with the nonmalignant and other breast tumor lines examined, MCF-7 and T-47D cells displayed a more rapid, robust, and sustained MAP kinase activation in response to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) stimulation. By contrast, IGF-I treatment led to a sustained down-regulation of MAP kinase in those lines overexpressing ErbB2-related RPTKs. Interestingly, blocking the MAP kinase pathway with PD098059 had the greatest antiproliferative effect on MCF-7 and T-47D among the normal and tumor lines tested. Furthermore, addition of an IGF-IR blocking antibody to growth medium attenuated the ability of PD098059 to suppress the growth of MCF-7 and T-47D cells. Thus, our study suggests that concomitant overexpression of multiple signaling components of the IGF-IR pathway leads to the amplification of IGF-I-mediated MAP kinase signaling and resultant sensitization to PD098059. The enhanced sensitivity to PD098059 implies an increased requirement for the MAP kinase pathway in those breast cancer cells, making this pathway a potential target in the treatment of selected breast malignancies.  相似文献

G-protein-coupled receptor agonists (GPCAs) cause functional responses in endothelial cells including secretion, proliferation, and altering monolayer permeability. These events are mediated in part by activation of the p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade. The cytosolic tyrosine kinase Pyk2 is postulated to link GPCA-induced changes in intracellular calcium to activation of the MAP kinase cascade. We have investigated the regulation of Pyk2 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells in response to GPCAs and show that (1) thrombin, a PAR-1 peptide, and histamine cause rapid concentration- and time-dependent phosphorylation on tyrosines 402 (Src kinase binding site), 881 (Grb2 binding site), and 580 (an autophosphorylation site), (2) thrombin-stimulated phosphorylation is dependent on intracellular calcium and independent of PKC and PI-3 kinase, and (3) inhibition of Src kinases has no significant effect on thrombin-stimulated phosphorylation, implying that tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 is independent of Src binding.  相似文献

Insulin stimulation of skeletal muscle results in rapid activation of protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta), which is associated with its tyrosine phosphorylation and physical association with insulin receptor (IR). The mechanisms underlying tyrosine phosphorylation of PKCdelta have not been determined. In this study, we investigated the possibility that the Src family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases may be involved upstream insulin signaling. Studies were done on differentiated rat skeletal myotubes in primary culture. Insulin caused an immediate stimulation of Src and induced its physical association with both IR and PKCdelta. Inhibition of Src by treatment with the Src family inhibitor PP2 reduced insulin-stimulated Src-PKCdelta association, PKCdelta tyrosine phosphorylation and PKCdelta activation. PP2 inhibition of Src also decreased insulin-induced IR tyrosine phosphorylation, IR-PKCdelta association and association of Src with both PKCdelta and IR. Finally, inhibition of Src decreased insulin-induced glucose uptake. We conclude that insulin activates Src tyrosine kinase, which regulates PKCdelta activity. Thus, Src tyrosine kinase may play an important role in insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of both IR and PKCdelta. Moreover, both Src and PKCdelta appear to be involved in IR activation and subsequent downstream signaling.  相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that multiple signalling pathways are involved in thrombin-induced proliferation in rat astrocytes. Thrombin acts by protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) via mitogen-activated protein kinase activity. Signalling includes both Gi/(betagamma subunits)-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and a Gq-phospholipase C/Ca2+/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. In the present study, we investigated the possible protein tyrosine kinases which might be involved in thrombin signalling cascades. We found that, in astrocytes, thrombin can evoke phosphorylation of proline-rich tyrosine kinase (Pyk2) via PAR-1. This process is dependent on the increase in intracellular Ca2+ and PKC activity. Moreover, in response to thrombin stimulation Pyk2 formed a complex with Src tyrosine kinase and adapter protein growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), which could be coprecipitated. Furthermore, both thrombin-induced Pyk2 phosphorylation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation can be attenuated by Src kinase inhibitor 4-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine. From these data we conclude that PAR-1 uses Ca2+- and PKC-dependent Pyk2 to activate Src, thereby leading to ERK1/2 activation, which predominantly recruits Grb2 in rat astrocytes.  相似文献

The present study demonstrates negative intracellular cross-talk between angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) and insulin receptors. AT2 receptor stimulation leads to inhibition of insulin-induced extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK2) activity and cell proliferation in transfected Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-hAT2) cells. We show that AT2 receptor interferes at the initial step of insulin signaling cascade, by impairing tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor (IR) beta-chain. AT2-mediated inhibition of IR phosphorylation is insensitive to pertussis toxin and is also detected in neuroblastoma N1E-115 and pancreatic acinar AR42J cells that express endogenous receptors. We present evidence that AT2 receptor inhibits the autophosphorylating tyrosine kinase activity of IR, with no significant effect on insulin binding properties. AT2-mediated inactivation of IR does not mainly involve tyrosine dephosphorylation by vanadate-sensitive tyrosine phosphatases nor serine/threonine phosphorylation by protein kinase C. As a consequence of IR inactivation, AT2 receptor inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) and signal-regulatory protein (SIRPalpha1) and prevents subsequent association of both IRS-1 and SIRPalpha1 with Src homology 2 (SH2)-containing tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. Our results thus demonstrate functional trans-inactivation of IR kinase by G protein-coupled AT2 receptor, illustrating a novel mode of negative communication between two families of membrane receptors.  相似文献
