Calpain, a calcium-dependent cysteine protease, is known to associate with the T-cell plasma membrane and subsequently cleave a number of cytoskeletal-associated proteins. In this study, we report the novel observation that calpain II, but not calpain I, associates with membrane lipid rafts on human peripheral blood T-cells and Jurkat cells. Raft-associated calpain activity is enhanced with exogenous calcium and inhibited with calpeptin, a specific inhibitor of calpain activity. In addition, we demonstrate that calpain cleaves the cytoskeletal-associated protein, talin, during the first 30-min after cell stimulation. We propose that lipid raft associated-calpain II could function in early TCR signaling to facilitate immune synapse formation through cytoskeletal remodeling mechanisms. Hence, we demonstrate that the positioning of calpain II within T-cell lipid rafts strategically places it in close proximity to known calpain substrates that are cleaved during Ag-specific T-cell signaling and immune synapse formation. 相似文献

The Ras GTPase-activating-like protein IQGAP1 is a multimodular scaffold that controls signaling and cytoskeletal regulation in fibroblasts and epithelial cells. However, the functional role of IQGAP1 in T cell development, activation, and cytoskeletal regulation has not been investigated. In this study, we show that IQGAP1 is dispensable for thymocyte development as well as microtubule organizing center polarization and cytolytic function in CD8(+) T cells. However, IQGAP1-deficient CD8(+) T cells as well as Jurkat T cells suppressed for IQGAP1 were hyperresponsive, displaying increased IL-2 and IFN-γ production, heightened LCK activation, and augmented global phosphorylation kinetics after TCR ligation. In addition, IQGAP1-deficient T cells exhibited increased TCR-mediated F-actin assembly and amplified F-actin velocities during spreading. Moreover, we found that discrete regions of IQGAP1 regulated cellular activation and F-actin accumulation. Taken together, our data suggest that IQGAP1 acts as a dual negative regulator in T cells, limiting both TCR-mediated activation kinetics and F-actin dynamics via distinct mechanisms. 相似文献

The tec family kinase, inducible T cell tyrosine kinase (Itk), is critical for both development and activation of T lymphocytes. We have found that Itk regulates TCR/CD3-induced actin-dependent cytoskeletal events. Expression of Src homology (SH) 2 domain mutant Itk transgenes into Jurkat T cells inhibits these events. Furthermore, Itk(-/-) murine T cells display significant defects in TCR/CD3-induced actin polymerization. In addition, Jurkat cells deficient in linker for activation of T cells expression, an adaptor critical for Itk activation, display impaired cytoskeletal events and expression of SH3 mutant Itk transgenes reconstitutes this impairment. Interestingly, expression of an Itk kinase-dead mutant transgene into Jurkat cells has no effect on cytoskeletal events. Collectively, these data suggest that Itk regulates TCR/CD3-induced actin-dependent cytoskeletal events, possibly in a kinase-independent fashion. 相似文献

Ras activation is critical for T-cell development and function, but the specific roles of the different Ras isoforms in T-lymphocyte function are poorly understood. We recently reported T-cell receptor (TCR) activation of ectopically expressed H-Ras on the the Golgi apparatus of T cells. Here we studied the isoform and subcellular compartment specificity of Ras signaling in Jurkat T cells. H-Ras was expressed at much lower levels than the other Ras isoforms in Jurkat and several other T-cell lines. Glutathione S-transferase-Ras-binding domain (RBD) pulldown assays revealed that, although high-grade TCR stimulation and phorbol ester activated both N-Ras and K-Ras, low-grade stimulation of the TCR resulted in specific activation of N-Ras. Surprisingly, whereas ectopically expressed H-Ras cocapped with the TCRs in lipid microdomains of the Jurkat plasma membrane, N-Ras did not. Live-cell imaging of Jurkat cells expressing green fluorescent protein-RBD, a fluorescent reporter of GTP-bound Ras, revealed that N-Ras activation occurs exclusively on the Golgi apparatus in a phospholipase Cgamma- and RasGRP1-dependent fashion. The specificity of N-Ras signaling downstream of low-grade TCR stimulation was dependent on the monoacylation of the hypervariable membrane targeting sequence. Our data show that, in contrast to fibroblasts stimulated with growth factors in which all three Ras isoforms become activated and signaling occurs at both the plasma membrane and Golgi apparatus, Golgi-associated N-Ras is the critical Ras isoform and intracellular pool for low-grade TCR signaling in Jurkat T cells. 相似文献

Engagement of the TCR initiates at least two transmembrane signaling pathways, the phosphatidylinositol pathway and a tyrosine kinase pathway. The T cell leukemic line Jurkat was used to study the relationship between the number of occupied TCR on the cell surface and the TCR-mediated activation of phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C. We characterized a series of Ti beta-chain transfectants of the Jurkat mutant J.RT3-T3.5, in which surface expression of the TCR is limited by expression of the TCR beta-chain. Calibrated flow cytometry was used to determine the number of binding sites for anti-CD3 mAb on the surface of these cells, which was less than 1.2 x 10(3) to 1.2 x 10(4) sites/cell. In the presence of lithium chloride, the accumulation of inositol phosphates (InsP) in these cell lines in response to saturating concentrations of anti-CD3 mAb was proportional to the calculated surface TCR number. This result was consistent with dose-response studies using anti-CD3 mAb in Jurkat cells, in which ligand concentration, rather than number of binding sites, was limiting. Increase in intracellular free calcium concentration was a sensitive indicator of TCR engagement and correlated with the level of TCR expression, but less closely than did InsP levels. Induction of the early lymphocyte activation marker CD69 by anti-CD3 mAb also correlated with surface expression of TCR. In order to test whether limitation of this signaling pathway by TCR number may be relevant to signal transduction in the wild-type cell, we compared PLC activity in Jurkat cells during soluble anti-CD3 mAb-induced internalization of the TCR and also in response to immobilized mAb. The net accumulation of InsP per min decreased linearly with TCR number during the rapid phase of TCR internalization, confirming the limiting role of TCR number in this system. When internalization was prevented by immobilization of the stimulus, there was no decrease in the net accumulation of InsP per minute over time. In a Jurkat cell line transfected with the heterologous human muscarinic receptor, subtype 1, the InsP response to a muscarinic agonist was unaffected by TCR internalization, indicating that the distal phosphatidylinositol pathway was not affected by prolonged stimulation of the TCR. We conclude that transmembrane signaling through the TCR may be regulated by the number of surface TCR-ligand complexes. This observation has implications for transmembrane signaling in both mature T cells and thymocytes. 相似文献

Herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) is the most prevalent human virus and causes global morbidity because the virus is able to infect multiple cell types. Remarkably, HSV infection switches between lytic and latent cycles, where T cells play a critical role. However, the precise way of virus-host interactions is incompletely understood. Here we report that HSV-1 productively infected Jurkat T-cells and inhibited antigen-induced T cell receptor activation. We discovered that HSV-1-encoded Us3 protein interrupted TCR signaling and interleukin-2 production by inactivation of the linker for activation of T cells. This study unveils a mechanism by which HSV-1 intrudes into early events of TCR-mediated cell signaling and may provide novel insights into HSV infection, during which the virus escapes from host immune surveillance. 相似文献

Abstract. Binding of a T cell to an appropriate antigen-presenting cell (APC) induces the rapid reorientation of the T cell cytoskeleton and secretory apparatus towards the cell–cell contact site in a T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and peptide/major histocompatibility complex–dependent process. Such T cell polarization directs the delivery of cytokines and cytotoxic mediators towards the APC and contributes to the highly selective and specific action of effector T cells. To study the signaling pathways that regulate cytoskeletal rearrangements in T lymphocytes, we set up a conjugate formation assay using Jurkat T cells as effectors and cell-sized latex beads coated with various antibodies as artificial APCs. Here, we report that beads coated with antibodies specific for the TCR-CD3 complex were sufficient to induce T cell polarization towards the bead attachment site, as judged by reorientation of the microtubule-organizing center (MTOC) and localized actin polymerization. Thus, these cytoskeletal changes did not depend on activation of additional coreceptors. Moreover, single subunits of the TCR complex, namely TCR-ζ and CD3ε, were equally effective in inducing cytoskeletal polarization. However, mutagenesis of the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs), present three times in TCR-ζ and once in CD3ε, revealed that the induction of cytoskeletal rearrangements required the presence of at least one intact ITAM. In agreement with this result, lack of functional Lck, the protein tyrosine kinase responsible for ITAM phosphorylation, abolished both MTOC reorientation and polarized actin polymerization. Both inhibitor and transient overexpression studies demonstrated that MTOC reorientation could occur in the absence of Ras activation. Our results suggest that APC-induced T cell polarization is a TCR-mediated event that is coupled to the TCR by the same signaling motif as TCR-induced gene activation, but diverges in its distal signaling requirements. 相似文献

The GTPase Rac controls signaling pathways often related to actin polymerization in various cell types. In T lymphocytes, Rac is activated by Vav, a major component of the multiprotein transduction complex associated to the TCR. Although profound signaling defects have been observed in Vav-deficient mice, a role of Rac in the corresponding early TCR signaling has not been tested directly. This question was investigated in Jurkat T cells transfected with either a dominant-negative (RacN17) or a constitutively active (RacV12) form of Rac. In T cells expressing either RacN17 or RacV12, the anti-CD3-induced Ca2+ response and production of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate were inhibited. The basal level of phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate was not significantly diminished by Rac mutants. The major inhibitory effect of Rac mutants on Ca2+ signaling is exerted on the activity of phospholipase C-gamma and, before that, on the phosphorylation of ZAP-70 and of the linker molecule for activation of T cells, LAT. An anti-CD3-induced increase in actin polymerization was observed in control cells but not in cells transfected with a Rac mutant. In addition, latrunculin, which binds to monomeric actin, simultaneously inhibited basal and CD3-induced actin polymerization and Ca2+ signaling. These findings suggest a link between the effects exerted by Rac mutants on cortical actin polymerization and on TCR signaling. Rac cycling between its GTP- and GDP-bound states is necessary for this signaling. Alterations observed in early TCR-dependent signals suggest that Rac contributes to the assembly of the TCR-associated multiprotein transduction complex. 相似文献

T-cell receptor (TCR) cross-linking increases tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins, only a few of which have been identified. One of the most rapidly tyrosine-phosphorylated polypeptides is the 120-kDa product of the proto-oncogene c-cbl, a cytosolic and cytoskeletal protein containing multiple proline-rich motifs that are potential binding sites for proteins containing Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. We report here that in cultured Jurkat T cells, Cbl is coprecipitated with antibody against the adapter protein Grb2. Upon activation of Jurkat T cells via the TCR-CD3 complex, we find that high-affinity binding of Cbl requires the N-terminal SH3 domain of GST-Grb2 fusion protein but after cross-linking of the TCR-CD3 and CD4 receptors, Cbl binds equally to its SH2 domain. Grb2 antisera also precipitated p85 from serum-starved cells, while TCR activation increased p85 and tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl but not Cbl protein in Grb2 immunocomplexes. Phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase activity was immunoprecipitated from serum-starved cells with Cbl and to a lesser extent with Grb2 antisera, and TCR cross-linking increased this activity severalfold. The PI 3-kinase activity associated with Cbl amounted to 5 to 10% of the total cellular activity that could be precipitated by p85 antisera. The Ras exchange factor Son-of-sevenless 1 (Sos-1) was not found in anti-Cbl immunoprecipitates from activated cells, and Cbl was not detectable in anti-Sos-1 precipitates, supporting the likelihood that Sos-Grb2 and Cbl-Grb2 are present as distinct complexes. Taken together, these data suggest that Cbl function in Jurkat T cells involves its constitutive association with Grb2 and its recruitment of PI 3-kinase in response to TCR activation. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to compare uniaxial traction forces exerted by different cell types using a novel sensor design and to test the dependence of measured forces on cytoskeletal integrity. The sensor design detects forces generated between 2 contact points by cells spanning a gap. The magnitude of these forces varied according to cell type and were dependent on cytoskeletal integrity. The response time for drug-induced cytoskeletal disruption also varied between cell types: dermal fibroblasts exerted the greatest forces and had the slowest drug response times; EBV-transformed epithelial cells also had slow cytoskeletal depolymerisation times but exerted the lowest forces overall. Conversely, lung epithelial tumor cells exerted low forces but had the fastest depolymerisation drug response. These results provide proof of principle for a new design of force-measurement sensor based on optical interferometry, an approach that can be used to study cytoskeletal dynamics in real time. 相似文献

Intracellular trafficking of organelles often involves cytoskeletal track switching. Organelles such as melanosomes are transported by multiple motors including kinesin-2, dynein, and myosin-V, which drive switching between microtubules and actin filaments during dispersion and aggregation. Here, we used optical trapping to determine the unitary and ensemble forces of kinesin-2, and to reconstitute cargo switching at cytoskeletal intersections in a minimal system with kinesin-2 and myosin-V motors bound to beads. Single kinesin-2 motors exerted forces up to ~5 pN, similar to kinesin-1. However, kinesin-2 motors were more likely to detach at submaximal forces, and the duration of force maintenance was short as compared to kinesin-1. In multimotor assays, force increased with kinesin-2 density but was not affected by the presence of myosin-V. In crossed filament assays, switching frequencies of motor-bound beads were dependent on the starting track. At equal average forces, beads tended to switch from microtubules onto overlying actin filaments consistent with the relatively faster detachment of kinesin-2 at near-maximal forces. Thus, in addition to relative force, switching probability at filament intersections is determined by the dynamics of motor-filament interaction, such as the quick detachment of kinesin-2 under load. This may enable fine-tuning of filament switching in the cell. 相似文献

HIP-55 (hematopoietic progenitor kinase 1 (HPK1)-interacting protein of 55 kDa, also called SH3P7 and mAbp1) is a novel SH3 domain-containing protein. HIP-55 binds to actin filaments both in vitro and in vivo. HIP-55 activates HPK1 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), which are two important lymphocyte signaling molecules. Until now, the regulation and function of HIP-55 in T cell receptor (TCR) signaling were unknown. We found that HIP-55 was recruited to glycolipid-enriched microdomains upon TCR stimulation, which indicates that HIP-55 is regulated by TCR signaling. HIP-55 interacted with ZAP-70, a critical protein-tyrosine kinase in TCR signaling, and this interaction was induced by TCR signaling. ZAP-70 phosphorylated HIP-55 at Tyr-334 and Tyr-344 in vitro and in vivo, and the HIP-55 mutant (Y334F/Y344F) was not tyrosine-phosphorylated in stimulated T cells. To study its function in T cell activation, HIP-55-deficient Jurkat T cells were established using the RNA interference approach. In the HIP-55-deficient cells, TCR (but not UV)-stimulated JNK activation was decreased. Furthermore, the activation of HPK1, a known JNK upstream activator and HIP-55-interacting protein, was also decreased in the HIP-55-deficient cells. Our data reveal the regulation of HIP-55 during TCR signaling, and using a genetic approach, we demonstrate for the first time that HIP-55 plays a functional role in TCR signaling. 相似文献

T cell antigen receptor (TCR) engagement has been shown to activate pathways leading to actin cytoskeletal polymerization and reorganization, which are essential for lymphocyte activation and function. Several actin regulatory proteins were implicated in regulating the actin machinery, such as members of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) family. These include WASp and the WASp family verprolin-homologous protein-2 (WAVE2). Although WASp and WAVE2 share several structural features, the precise regulatory mechanisms and potential redundancy between them have not been fully characterized. Specifically, unlike WASp, the dynamic molecular interactions that regulate WAVE2 recruitment to the cell membrane and specifically to the TCR signaling complex are largely unknown. Here, we identify the molecular mechanism that controls the recruitment of WAVE2 in comparison with WASp. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) and novel triple-color FRET (3FRET) technology, we demonstrate how WAVE2 signaling complexes are dynamically regulated during lymphocyte activation in vivo. We show that, similar to WASp, WAVE2 recruitment to the TCR site depends on protein-tyrosine kinase, ZAP-70, and the adaptors LAT, SLP-76, and Nck. However, in contrast to WASp, WAVE2 leaves this signaling complex and migrates peripherally together with vinculin to the membrane leading edge. Our experiments demonstrate that WASp and WAVE2 differ in their dynamics and their associated proteins. Thus, this study reveals the differential mechanisms regulating the function of these cytoskeletal proteins. 相似文献

T-cell antigen receptor ligation induces tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 总被引:31,自引:0,他引:31
Ligand-mediated perturbation of the T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) triggers a rapid increase in phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) activity in resting T-cells. Although the mechanism by which TCR ligation regulates PLC activity is unknown, recent studies suggest that coupling of this receptor complex to PLC activity is dependent on an intermediate protein tyrosine phosphorylation event(s). In the present study, we demonstrate that antibody-mediated TCR cross-linkage results in the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. Stimulation of the TCR for 30 s induced a 4-5-fold increase in the level of PLC activity recovered in anti-phosphotyrosine (Tyr(P)) antibody immunoprecipitates from stimulated Jurkat cells. The appearance of PLC activity in the immunoprecipitates preceded the onset of phosphoinositide hydrolysis in vivo, which began 30-60 s after TCR ligation. Furthermore, the TCR-mediated increase in anti-Tyr(P) antibody-bound PLC activity was inhibited by staurosporine at drug concentrations identical with those required for in vivo inhibition of TCR-dependent phosphoinositide breakdown. Immunoblot analyses demonstrated that TCR ligation dramatically increased the level of tyrosine-phosphorylated PLC-gamma 1 present in anti-Tyr(P) antibody immunoprecipitates from stimulated Jurkat cells. These results strongly suggest that the TCR complex expressed by Jurkat cells is functionally coupled to the phosphoinositide-dependent signaling pathway through the tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. 相似文献

Cell forces define cell morphology, alterations in which are caused by tyrosine kinase and phosphatase mutations, which implies a causal linkage. Recent studies have shown that phosphotyrosine signaling is involved in force sensing for cells on flat surfaces. Early force-dependent activation of Src family kinases by phosphatases or cytoskeleton stretch leads to the activation of downstream signaling. In addition, force generation by cells depends on a feedback mechanism between matrix rigidity or force generation and myosin contractility. Components of the force-sensing pathway are linked to the integrin-cytoskeleton complex at sites of force application and serve as scaffolds for signaling processes. Thus, early events in force detection are mechanically induced cytoskeletal changes that result in biochemical signals to mechanoresponsive pathways that then regulate cell form. 相似文献

The small GTPase, Rap1, is a potent activator of leukocyte integrins and enhances the adhesive activity of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) when stimulated by the T cell receptor (TCR) or chemokines. However, the mechanism by which Rap1 is activated remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma1 plays a critical role in the signaling pathway leading to Rap1 activation triggered by the TCR. In Jurkat T cells, TCR cross-linking triggered persistent Rap1 activation, and SDF-1 (CXCL12) activated Rap1 transiently. A phospholipase C inhibitor, U73122, abrogated Rap1 activation triggered by both the TCR and SDF-1 (CXCL12). PLC-gamma1-deficient Jurkat T cells showed a marked reduction of TCR-triggered Rap1 activation and adhesion to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) mediated by LFA-1. In contrast, SDF-1-triggered Rap1 activation and adhesion were not affected in these cells. Transfection of these cells with an expression plasmid encoding PLC-gamma1 restored Rap1 activation by the TCR and the ability to adhere to ICAM-1, accompanied by polarized LFA-1 surface clustering colocalized with regulator of adhesion and polarization enriched in lymphoid tissues (RAPL). Furthermore, when expressed in Jurkat cells, CalDAG-GEFI, a calcium and diacylglycerol-responsive Rap1 exchange factor, associated with Rap1, and resulted in enhanced Rap1 activation and adhesion triggered by the TCR. Our results demonstrate that TCR activation of Rap1 depends on PLC-gamma1. This activity is likely to be mediated by CalDAG-GEFI, which is required to activate LFA-1. 相似文献
