Interleukin-2 (IL-2) stimulates the rapid phosphorylation on tyrosine of several specific cellular proteins. However, the high-affinity human IL-2 receptor, composed of an alpha (p55) and beta (p70/75) subunit, does not contain a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. In this study, we investigated the identities of the proteins phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to IL-2 stimulation to examine possible pathways of signal transduction. By the use of immunoblotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies, we demonstrate that IL-2 augments tyrosine phosphorylation of the IL-2 receptor beta chain in human cell lines expressing either high-affinity (alpha/beta) receptors or only the beta chain. In IL-2-dependent mouse T cell lines, a 100,000-Da protein was phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to IL-2 and is proposed to be the mouse IL-2 receptor beta chain. Two other cellular proteins, pp55 and pp105 in human or pp55 and pp115 in mouse cell lines, were phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to IL-2 and coimmunoprecipitated with the high-affinity IL-2 receptor after chemical crosslinking of IL-2-stimulated cells. Thus, the IL-2 receptor may associate with additional subunits or with cellular proteins involved in signal transduction.  相似文献

We previously reported a molecule, p64, which was tentatively named the gamma chain, coprecipitable with the beta chain of human interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R). The present study demonstrated that the gamma chain, as well as the beta chain expressed on IL-2-responsive cells, is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in an IL-2-dependent manner in vivo and in vitro. The in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation of both chains was similarly induced within 1 min after IL-2 stimulation, and their in vitro tyrosine phosphorylation with the anti-IL-2R beta antibody-directed immunocomplex was also increased by treatment of cells with IL-2. These results suggest that a tyrosine kinase is associated with the beta gamma subunit complex, of which activation by IL-2 may result in transduction of intracellular signals.  相似文献

The erythroleukemia-inducing Friend spleen focus-forming virus (SFFV) encodes a unique envelope glycoprotein which allows erythroid cells to proliferate and differentiate in the absence of erythropoietin (Epo). In an effort to understand how SFFV causes Epo independence, we have been examining erythroid cells rendered factor independent by SFFV infection for constitutive activation of signal-transducing molecules. Previous studies from our laboratory showed that various signal-transducing molecules known to be activated by Epo, including Stat proteins and components of the Raf-1/MAP kinase pathway, are constitutively activated in SFFV-infected erythroid cells in the absence of Epo. Since another signal transduction pathway involving activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) after Epo stimulation plays an important role in erythroid cell proliferation and differentiation, we carried out studies to determine if this pathway was also activated in SFFV-infected cells in the absence of Epo. Our studies show that PI 3-kinase is constitutively activated in erythroid cells rendered factor independent by infection with SFFV and that PI 3-kinase activity, but not Epo receptor tyrosine phosphorylation, is required for the proliferation of these cells in the absence of Epo. We further show that in SFFV-infected erythroid cells grown in the absence of Epo, PI 3-kinase associates with the insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-related adapter molecules IRS-2, Gab1, and Gab2, which are constitutively tyrosine phosphorylated in SFFV-infected cells. Finally, Akt, a protein kinase that is one of the downstream effectors of PI 3-kinase, and SHIP, a lipid phosphatase that is important for Akt activation through PI 3-kinase, are both tyrosine phosphorylated in SFFV-infected cells grown in the absence of Epo. Our results indicate that induction of Epo independence by SFFV requires the activation of PI 3-kinase and suggest that constitutive activation of this kinase in SFFV-infected cells may occur primarily through interaction of PI 3-kinase with constitutively phosphorylated IRS-related adapter molecules.  相似文献

The functional, high affinity form of interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) is composed of two receptor components, the IL-2R alpha (p55) and IL-2R beta (p70-75) chains. Unlike the IL-2R alpha chain, the IL-2R beta chain contains a large cytoplasmic domain that shows no obvious tyrosine kinase motif. In the present study, we report the establishment of a system in which the cDNA-directed human IL-2R beta allows growth signal transduction in a mouse pro-B cell line. This system enabled us to identify a unique region within the cytoplasmic domain of the human IL-2R beta chain essential for ligand-mediated signal transduction. We also demonstrate that certain cytoplasmic deletion mutants in the IL-2R beta chain, although deficient in signal transduction, can still form high affinity IL-2R in conjunction with endogenous mouse IL-2R alpha chain; the mutants are still able to internalize the ligand as well.  相似文献

Activation of the interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) induces signalling cascades promoting T cell proliferation. However, signal transduction pathways triggered in IL-2R-expressing solid tumours are unknown. This report shows that human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated cervical cancer cells express an IL-2R composed of beta and gamma chains (IL-2Rbetagamma), and that IL-2-mediated activation increases the phosphorylation of JAK3 and STAT5, stimulating cell proliferation. Interestingly, endogenous IL-2 is not produced by these cells, suggesting the activation of IL-2Rbetagamma by an alternative mechanism. Accordingly, we found that Stem Cell Factor (SCF)-activated c-Kit induces phosphorylation of the IL-2Rbeta chain in the absence of IL-2. Moreover, inhibition of IL-2Rbeta phosphorylation by blocking c-Kit tyrosine kinase activity abolishes both, IL-2 and SCF-mediated proliferation. Thus, these results demonstrate that IL-2 triggers a JAK3/STAT5 cascade in HPV-associated cervical cancer cells expressing IL-2Rbetagamma, and that this receptor can be alternatively activated by SCF-activated c-Kit in the absence of IL-2.  相似文献

Functional activities of the IL-2 receptor (IL-2R) beta chain exogenously expressed on lymphoid and non-lymphoid cells were examined in terms of phosphorylation of IL-2R beta and cell growth. Lymphoid MOLT-4 and its transfectants expressing IL-2R beta either alone or with IL-2R alpha chain were found to be rapidly phosphorylated predominantly at tyrosine residues of IL-2R beta and to be affected in their growth in an IL-2-dependent manner. In contrast, IL-2 induced neither phosphorylation of IL-2R beta nor cell growth in non-lymphoid transfectants derived from COS7, HeLa and L929, even though they acquired the IL-2 binding ability when coexpressed as IL-2R beta and IL-2R alpha. These results suggest that IL-2 induces activation of a tyrosine kinase possibly associated with IL-2R beta in a cell type-specific manner.  相似文献

Interleukin-5 (IL-5) regulates the production and function of B cells, eosinophils, and basophils. The IL-5 receptor (IL-5R) consists of two distinct membrane proteins, alpha and beta. The alpha chain (IL-5R alpha) is specific to IL-5. The beta chain is the common beta chain (beta c) of receptors for IL-3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). The cytoplasmic domains of both alpha and beta chains are essential for signal transduction. In this study, we generated cDNAs of IL-5R alpha having various mutations in their cytoplasmic domains and examined the function of these mutants by expressing them in IL-3-dependent FDC-P1 cells. The membrane-proximal proline-rich sequence of the cytoplasmic domain of IL-5R alpha, which is conserved among the alpha chains of IL-5R, IL-3R, and GM-CSF receptor (GM-CSFR), was found to be essential for the IL-5-induced proliferative response, expression of nuclear proto-oncogenes such as c-jun, c-fos, and c-myc, and tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins including JAK2 protein-tyrosine kinase. In addition, analysis using chimeric receptors which consist of the extracellular domain of IL-5R alpha and the cytoplasmic domain of beta c suggested that dimerization of the cytoplasmic domain of beta c may be an important step in activating the IL-5R complex and transducing intracellular growth signals.  相似文献

The high-affinity interleukin 2 receptor (IL-2R) consists of at least three distinct subunits: the IL-2R alpha chain (IL-2R alpha), beta chain (IL-2R beta), and gamma chain (IL-2R gamma). It has been shown that the cytoplasmic region of IL-2R beta, but not of IL-2R alpha, is essential for IL-2 signalling to the cell interior. In the present study, we examined the functional role of the IL-2R gamma cytoplasmic region in the IL-3-dependent mouse hematopoietic cell line BAF-B03, which expresses the endogenous IL-2R alpha and IL-2R gamma, or its subline F7, which additionally expresses human IL-2R beta cDNA. We show that overexpression of a mutant IL-2R gamma, lacking all but 7 amino acids of its cytoplasmic region, results in the selective inhibition of IL-2-induced c-fos gene activation and cellular proliferation in F7 cells. When two chimeric receptor molecules in which the cytoplasmic regions of IL-2R beta and IL-2R gamma had been swapped with each other (IL-2R beta/gamma and IL-2R gamma/beta) were coexpressed in BAF-B03, the cells responded to IL-2. These results indicate the critical importance of the IL-2-induced functional cooperation of the two cytoplasmic regions. Finally, we provide evidence that the IL-2R gamma cytoplasmic region is also critical for the IL-4 and IL-7-induced growth signal transduction in BAF-B03.  相似文献

Cell surface expression of the high affinity IL-2R regulates, in part, the proliferative response occurring in Ag- or mitogen-activated T cells. The functional high affinity IL-2R is composed of at least two distinct ligand-binding components, IL-2R alpha (Tac, p55) and IL-2R beta (p70/75). The IL-2R beta polypeptide appears to be essential for growth signal transduction, whereas the IL-2R alpha protein participates in the regulation of receptor affinity. We have prepared and characterized two mAb, DU-1 and DU-2, that specifically react with IL-2R beta. In vitro kinase assays performed with DU-2 immunoprecipitates, but not anti-IL-2R alpha or control antibody immunoprecipitates, have revealed co-precipitation of a tyrosine kinase enzymatic activity that mediates phosphorylation of IL-2R beta. Because both IL-2R alpha and IL-2R beta lack tyrosine kinase enzymatic domains, these findings strongly suggest that noncovalent association of a tyrosine kinase with the high affinity IL-2R complex. Deletion mutants of the intracellular region of IL-2R beta, lacking either a previously described "critical domain" between amino acids 267 and 322 or the carboxyl-terminal 198 residues (IL-2R beta 88), lacked the ability to co-precipitate this tyrosine kinase activity, as measured by phosphorylation of IL-2R beta in vitro. Both of these mutants also failed to transduce growth-promoting signals in response to IL-2 in vivo. Analysis of the IL-2R beta 88 mutant receptor suggested that a second protein kinase mediating phosphorylation on serine and threonine residues physically interacts with the carboxyl terminus of IL-2R beta. This kinase may be necessary but, alone, appears to be insufficient to support a full IL-2-induced proliferative response. These studies highlight the physical association of protein kinases with the cytoplasmic domain of IL-2R beta and their likely role in IL-2-induced growth signaling mediated through the multimeric high affinity IL-2R complex.  相似文献

By Western blotting with anti-phosphotyrosine-specific antibody, we demonstrated that both erythropoietin (Epo) and interleukin 3 (IL3) induce rapid and transient tyrosine phosphorylation of a common set of proteins of 45, 55, 69, 87, 90, 95 and 160 KDa as a growth signal in Epo- and IL3-dependent FD-M6 cells. In contrast, only two proteins of 87 and 90 KDa were transiently phosphorylated in Epo-induced erythroid differentiation of SKT6 cells. Furthermore, no tyrosine phosphorylation was observed in dimethyl sulfoxide-induced differentiation of SKT6 cells. Taken together with other observations, these results indicate that Epo, IL3 and GM-CSF activate the same tyrosine protein kinases as growth signal and that Epo-induced differentiation signal uses only a part of the tyrosine kinase pathway.  相似文献

The receptor for IL-2 has been known to exist in three forms on the basis of their affinities to IL-2: high, intermediate, and low affinity forms. Two IL-2R components have been identified as IL-2R alpha (p55, Tac Ag) and IL-2R beta (p70-75) chains, both bind IL-2 with low and intermediate affinities, respectively. Recently, we cloned human IL-2R beta chain cDNA and demonstrated that the cDNA product binds IL-2 with intermediate affinity and forms high affinity IL-2R with coexpressed IL-2R alpha chain in a human T cell line, Jurkat. In this study, we report the establishment of the mouse fibroblast transformants expressing either the IL-2R beta chain alone or both the IL-2R alpha and IL-2R beta chains. In contrast to lymphoid cells, significant IL-2 binding was not detected in the transformants expressing the IL-2R beta chain alone at IL-2 concentrations (50 pM to 10 nM) generally utilized. Nonetheless, the transformants expressing both IL-2R alpha and IL-2R beta chains displayed two forms of the IL-2R with high and low affinities to IL-2. However, neither IL-2 internalization nor signal transduction via the high affinity IL-2R complex were observed in the L929 transformants. Those findings suggest that the interaction of the IL-2R beta chain with the IL-2R alpha chain occurs in the absence of additional lymphoid specific component(s) to form high affinity IL-2R, but that this interaction is insufficient for IL-2 internalization and signal transduction just as observed in lymphoid cells. The experimental approach described here may allow further dissection of the molecular architecture of the IL-2R complex in the ligand binding, internalization, and signal transduction.  相似文献

Engagement of interleukin-2 (IL-2) mediates the heterodimeridation of the common beta chain (beta(c)) and common gamma chain (gamma(c)) of the IL-2 receptor (IL-2R). This is sufficient and necessary for receptor activation and signal transduction. It is generally held that the IL-2R is activated by the trans-activity of the protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) Jak1 and Jak3 associated with beta(c) and gamma(c) respectively. Transduction of proliferative signals requires Jak3 activity. A Jak3 independent signalling pathway involving p56(lck), generating anti-apoptotic signals, can be observed and requires the PROX domain of gamma(c). p56(lck) can be activated by dephosphorylation of an inhibitory carboxyl terminal phosphorylated tyrosine residue (Y505). We propose that this is mediated by a PROX domain associated protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP). Activation of p56(lck) alone is insufficient for transduction of proliferative signals and thus works in concert with Jak3 mediated receptor activation. This indicates that both gamma(c) domains are vital for signal transduction.  相似文献

The stimulation of activated human T lymphocytes with IL-2 results in increased tyrosine kinase activity. IL-2 treatment of Tac+ T cells stimulates the rapid phosphorylation of multiple protein substrates at M of 116, 100, 92, 70 to 75, 60, 56, 55, 33, and 32 kDa. Phosphorylation on tyrosine residues was detected by immunoaffinity purification of protein substrates with Sepharose linked antiphosphotyrosine mAb, 1G2. Although phorbol ester stimulated serine phosphorylation of the IL-2R alpha (p55) subunit recognized by alpha TAC mAb, IL-2 did not stimulate any detectable phosphorylation of IL-2R alpha or associated coimmune precipitated proteins. In fact, the tyrosine phosphorylated proteins did not coprecipitate with alpha Tac antibody and similar phosphoproteins were stimulated by IL-2 in IL-2R alpha- human large granular lymphocytes which express only the 70 to 75 kDa IL-2R beta subunit of the high affinity IL-2R. Anti-Tac mAb could inhibit IL-2-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation in activated T cells, which express both IL-2R subunits that together form the high affinity receptor complex, but not in large granular lymphocytes expressing only the IL-2R beta subunit. The data suggest that IL-2 stimulation of tyrosine kinase activities requires only the IL-2R beta subunit.  相似文献

The common cytokine receptor gamma chain (gamma c), an essential component of the receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, and IL-15, is critical for the development and function of lymphocytes. Recently, a novel lymphokine (IL-21) and its receptor (IL-21R alpha) were described which profoundly affect the growth and activation state of B, T, and NK cells in concert with other lymphokines or stimuli [Parrish-Novak, J., et al. (2000) Nature 408, 57-63]. In this report, we show that gamma c is also a required signaling component of the IL-21 receptor (IL-21R) using the gamma c-deficient X-linked severe combined immunodeficiency (XSCID) lymphoblastoid cell line JT, and JT cells reconstituted with gamma c (JT/gamma c). Moreover, we demonstrate a functional requirement for both gamma c and the gamma c-associated Janus family tyrosine kinase 3 (JAK3) in IL-21-induced proliferation of pro-B-lymphoid cells engineered to express human IL-21R alpha (BaF3/IL-21R alpha). Retroviral-mediated transduction of wild-type gamma c into XSCID JT cells restored function to the IL-21R, as shown by IL-21-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK1 and JAK3, and downstream activation of STAT5, in JT/gamma c cells as well as BaF3/IL-21R alpha and primary splenic B cells. In contrast, IL-21 failed to activate the JAK-STAT pathway in nonreconstituted JT cells. Monoclonal antibodies specific for the gamma c chain effectively inhibited IL-21-induced growth of BaF3/IL-21R alpha cells, supporting a functional role for this molecule in the IL-21R complex. In addition, the specific JAK3 tyrosine kinase inhibitor WHI-P131 significantly reduced IL-21-induced proliferation of BaF3/IL-21R alpha cells. Taken together, these results definitively demonstrate that IL-21-mediated signaling requires the gamma c chain, and indicate that JAK3 is an essential transducer of gamma c-dependent survival and/or mitogenic signals induced by this cytokine.  相似文献

Receptor activation by the haematopoietic growth factor proteins interleukin 5 (IL-5) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) leads to phosphorylation of JAK2 as a key trigger of signal transduction. JAB has recently been identified as a regulator of JAK2 phosphorylation and activity by binding phosphorylated JAK2 and inducing its degradation. As part of our effort to define molecular recognition networks that lead to signalling, we investigated the effect of JAB on both JAK2 phosphorylation and JAK2 interaction state that ensue upon IL-5 stimulation in recombinant 293T cells cotransfected 293T cells with IL-5R alpha, beta c and hJAK2 either with or without JAB. Without JAB, stimulation with wild-type and re-engineered single chain (sc) IL-5 induced a time-dependent phosphorylation of JAK2. In the presence of JAB cotransfection, no phospho-JAK2 was observed, and JAB was observed co-immunoprecipitated with non-phosphorylated JAK2. The time dependence of JAB co-immunoprecipitation correlated with the time dependence of JAK2 phosphorylation when JAB was absent. Since JAB has already been shown to bind JAK2 via a phosphorylated tyrosine, the current data suggest that JAB binds to phosphorylated JAK2, enhances JAK2 dephosphorylation and remains associated in a complex, with dephosphorylated JAK2, that may be a precursor leading to irreversible JAK2 degradation.  相似文献

Erythropoietin (Epo) is crucial for promoting the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of mammalian erythroid progenitors. The central role played by tyrosine phosphorylation of erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) in Epo-cell activation has focused attention on protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) as candidates implicated in the pathogenesis of the resistance to therapy with human recombinant Epo. Prototypic member of the PTP family is PTP1B, which has been implicated in the regulation of EpoR signaling pathways. In previous reports we have shown that PTP1B is reciprocally modulated by Epo in undifferentiated UT-7 cell line. However, no information is available with respect to the modulation of this phosphatase in non-Epo depending cells or at late stages of erythroid differentiation. In order to investigate these issues we induced UT-7 cells to differentiate and studied their PTP1B expression pattern. Simultaneous observations were performed in TF-1 cells which can be cultured either with GM-CSF, IL-3 or Epo. We found that Epo induced PTP1B cleaveage in TF-1 and differentiated UT-7 cells. This pattern of PTP1B modulation may be due to an increased TRPC3/TRPC6 expression ratio which could explain the larger and sustained calcium response to Epo and calpain activation in Epo treated TF-1 and differentiated UT-7 cells.  相似文献

IL-1 receptor accessory protein and ST2 comprise the IL-33 receptor complex   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
IL-33 (IL-1F11) is a recently described member of the IL-1 family of cytokines that stimulates the generation of cells, cytokines, and Igs characteristic of a type 2 immune response. IL-33 mediates signal transduction through ST2, a receptor expressed on Th2 and mast cells. In this study, we demonstrate that IL-33 and ST2 form a complex with IL-1R accessory protein (IL-1RAcP), a signaling receptor subunit that is also a member of the IL-1R complex. Additionally, IL-1RAcP is required for IL-33-induced in vivo effects, and IL-33-mediated signal transduction can be inhibited by dominant-negative IL-1RAcP. The implications of this shared usage of IL-1RAcP by IL-1(alpha and beta) and IL-33 are discussed.  相似文献

Stimulation of the interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor results in phosphorylation and activation of cytosolic Raf-1 serine/threonine kinase. Herein, we report that enzymatically active Raf-1 is physically associated with the IL-2 receptor beta chain (p75) in T-cell blasts. Following stimulation with IL-2, Raf-1 dissociates from the IL-2 receptor complex and translocates to the cytosol. Genistein, a protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor, prevents the dissociation of enzymatically active Raf-1 from the ligand-stimulated IL-2 receptor complex. These data favor a model of IL-2 receptor activation in which an IL-2-activated protein tyrosine kinase phosphorylates the IL-2 receptor and/or receptor-bound Raf-1. Following tyrosine phosphorylation, enzymatically active Raf-1 dissociates from the IL-2 receptor and translocates into the cytosol.  相似文献

A role for tyrosine phosphorylation in the signal-transducing mechanisms of several hematopoietic growth factors has been hypothesized. To extend these observations, we have examined the effects of erythropoietin (Epo) on tyrosine phosphorylation in an Epo-responsive cell that was obtained by transfecting the murine erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) into an interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent cell line. By two-dimensional analysis of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins isolated with a monoclonal antibody (1G2) against phosphotyrosine, Epo and IL-3 were found to rapidly induce tyrosine phosphorylation of comparable substrates of 92, 70, and 56 kDa. In addition, Epo uniquely induced phosphorylation of a 72-kDa substrate while IL-3 uniquely induced phosphorylation of a 140-kDa substrate. Immunoprecipitation and mixing experiments indicated that the 72-kDa substrate may represent a small fraction of the EpoR. To explore the significance of tyrosine phosphorylation, we generated two mutants of the EpoR that lacked 108 or 146 amino acids at their carboxyl termini. In addition we constructed an internally deleted mutant that lacked 20 amino acids in a region of sequence homology with the IL-2 receptor beta chain. Although all mutants were expressed at comparable levels and had comparable binding affinities for Epo, only the mutant lacking 108 amino acids at the carboxyl terminus retained significant mitogenic activity or the ability to induce tyrosine phosphorylation.  相似文献
