Thrombopoietin (TPO), an essential factor for megakaryopoiesis and thrombopoiesis, works as a survival factor for megakaryocytic lineage cells. However, little is known about the molecular mechanism in detail. We show here that TPO supports the survival of TPO-dependent leukemia cell line UT-7/TPO and normal megakaryocytic progenitors via the induction of Bcl-xL, an anti-apoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family. We further analyzed the signal transduction pathways required for TPO-induced Bcl-xL gene expression. A reporter assay with various lengths of Bcl-x gene promoter revealed that both Stat- and nuclear factor kappa B-binding sites are prerequisites for TPO-induced promoter activity. Consistent with these results, TPO induced the binding of Stat5 and subunits of nuclear factor kappa B, p50, and c-Rel to the Bcl-x gene promoter. AG490, a specific inhibitor for Jak2, and LY294002, a specific inhibitor for phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, reduced the protein level of Bcl-xL in UT-7/TPO cells, accompanied by an increase in the ratio of apoptotic cells. Interestingly, LY294002 enhanced the TPO-induced DNA binding activity of Stat5 without affecting the Jak2 activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of Stat5. Concomitantly, confocal microscopy revealed that LY294002 clearly inhibited the nuclear export of Stat5, suggesting that PI 3-kinase regulates the subcellular localization of Stat5. Taken together, our results suggest that both Jak-Stat and PI 3-kinase activation pathways regulate the TPO-induced survival of megakaryocytic cells via Bcl-xL gene expression. In addition, our data suggest possible cross-talk between these two signaling pathways. 相似文献

The molecular mechanisms involved in modulation of the antioxidant cell defence by survival signals remain largely unexplored. Here, we report a mechanistic connection between the survival signal elicited by nerve growth factor (NGF) and the antioxidant cell defence represented by heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) at the level of a newly identified Sp1 site in the human ho1 proximal promoter. By using luciferase reporter constructs we identified a PI3K-responsive region containing a GC-box that resembled the response element for Sp1. Indeed, transfection of Sp1-deficient SL2 cells, electrophoretic mobility shift assays, the use of the GC-box binding drug mithramycin, and mutation of the GC-box provided evidence for a Sp1-like site in the PI3K-sensitive region. Then, we observed with the use of a Sp1-Gal4 chimera that PI3K regulates the transactivating capacity of Sp1. Cotransfection of active PI3K and PKC-zeta expression vectors resulted in substantial increase of Sp1 phosphorylation and in synergistic activation of both Sp1-Gal4 and endogenous Sp1. Moreover, these effects were mimicked by cotransfection of active MEK and ERK expression vectors and were blocked by the MEK inhibitor PD98059. Inhibition of HO-1 with Sn protoporphyrin IX and blockage of Sp-1-mediatied upregulation of HO-1 with mithramycin attenuated antioxidant and cytoprotective functions of NGF against hydrogen peroxide. This study elucidates how NGF contributes to protection of target cells against oxidative stress. 相似文献

Clusterin is, in its major form, a secreted heterodimeric disulfide-linked glycoprotein (75-80 kDa). It was first linked to cell death in the rat ventral prostate after androgen deprivation. Recent studies have demonstrated that overexpression of clusterin in prostatic cells protects them against tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha)-induced apoptosis. However the details of this survival mechanism remain undefined. Here, we investigate how clusterin prevents cells from undergoing TNFalpha-induced apoptosis. We established a double-stable prostatic cell line for inducible clusterin by using the Tet-On gene expression system. We demonstrated that 50% of the cells overexpressing clusterin escaped from TNFalpha- and actinomycin D-induced cell death. Moreover we demonstrated that the incubation of MLL cells with conditioned medium containing the secreted clusterin or the supplementation of purified clusterin in the extracellular medium decreased the TNFalpha-induced apoptosis significantly. This extracellular action implicates megalin, the putative membrane receptor for clusterin to mediate survival. Indeed clusterin overexpression up-regulated the expression of megalin and induced its phosphorylation in a dose-dependent manner. We interestingly showed that clusterin overexpression is associated with the up-regulation of the phosphorylation of Akt. Activated Akt induced the phosphorylation of Bad and caused a decrease of cytochrome c release. These results enable us to pinpoint one mechanism by which secreted clusterin favors survival in androgen-independent prostate cancer cells, implicating its receptor megalin and Akt survival pathway. 相似文献

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is a key molecule mediating signals of insulin in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). To examine the effect of chronic activation of PI3K on the gene expression of VSMCs, membrane-targeted p110CAAX, a catalytic subunit of PI3K, was overexpressed in rat VSMCs by adenovirus-mediated gene transfer. Similar to insulin's effects, cells overexpressing p110CAAX exhibited a 10- to 15-fold increase in monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) mRNA expression as compared with the control cells. Electrophoretic mobility shift assay analysis showed that the overexpression of p110CAAX activated neither the NF-kappaB binding nor the activator protein (AP-1) binding activities. We found that two CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP) binding sites located between 2.6 and 3.6 kb upstream of the MCP-1 gene were responsible for the induction by p110CAAX. The overexpression of C/EBP-beta and C/EBP-delta but not C/EBP-alpha caused 6- to 8-fold induction of MCP-1 promoter activity. Consistently, the overexpression of p110CAAX as well as insulin induced mRNA expression and nuclear expression of C/EBP-beta and C/EBP-delta in VSMCs. These results clearly indicate that the activation of PI3K induced proinflammatory gene expression through activating C/EBP-beta and C/EBP-delta but not NF-kappaB, which may explain the proinflammatory effect of insulin in the insulin-resistant state. 相似文献

Most, if not all, cytokines activate phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI-3K). Although many cytokine receptors have direct binding sites for the p85 subunit of PI-3K, others, such as the interleukin-3 (IL-3) receptor beta common chain (betac) and the IL-2 receptor beta chain (IL-2Rbeta), lack such sites, leaving the mechanism by which they activate PI-3K unclear. Here, we show that the protooncoprotein Shc, which promotes Ras activation by recruiting the Grb2-Sos complex in response to stimulation of cytokine stimulation, also signals to the PI-3K/Akt pathway. Analysis of Y-->F and "add-back" mutants of betac shows that Y577, the Shc binding site, is the major site required for Gab2 phosphorylation in response to cytokine stimulation. When fused directly to a mutant form of IL-2Rbeta that lacks other cytoplasmic tyrosines, Shc can promote Gab2 tyrosyl phosphorylation. Mutation of the three tyrosyl phosphorylation sites of Shc, which bind Grb2, blocks the ability of the Shc chimera to evoke Gab2 tyrosyl phosphorylation. Overexpression of mutants of Grb2 with inactive SH2 or SH3 domains also blocks cytokine-stimulated Gab2 phosphorylation. The majority of cytokine-stimulated PI-3K activity associates with Gab2, and inducible expression of a Gab2 mutant unable to bind PI-3K markedly impairs IL-3-induced Akt activation and cell growth. Experiments with the chimeric receptors indicate that Shc also signals to the PI-3K/Akt pathway in response to IL-2. Our results suggest that cytokine receptors lacking direct PI-3K binding sites activate Akt via a Shc/Grb2/Gab2/PI-3K pathway, thereby regulating cell survival and/or proliferation. 相似文献

The metabolism of phosphoinositides plays an important role in the signal transduction pathways. We report here that naturally occuring polyamines affect the activities of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase and PI 4-phosphate (PIP) 5-kinase differently. While polyamines inhibited the PI 3-kinase activity, they stimulated the activity of PIP 5-kinase in the order of spermine > spermidine > putrescine. Spermine inhibited the PI 3-kinase activity in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of 100 μM. On the other hand, spermine (5 mH) stimulated the activity of PIP 5-kinase 2–3 fold. Kinetic studies of spermine-mediated inhibition of PI 3-kinase revealed that it was noncompetitive with respect to ATP. The effect of Mg2+ and PIP, concentration on kinase activity was sigmoidal, with spermine inhibiting PI 3-kinase activity at all PIP2 concentrations. While 1 mH calcium stimulated PI 3-kinase activity at submaximal concentrations of Mg2+ (1.25 mH), inhibition was observed at optimal concentration of Mg2+(2 mM). We propose that spermine may modulate the cellular signal by virtue of its differential effects on phosphoinositide kinases. 相似文献

Down-regulation of apolipoprotein M expression is mediated by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in HepG2 cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Apolipoprotein M (apoM) is a novel apolipoprotein present mostly in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in human plasma. In the present study, we demonstrate that insulin, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), and IGF-I potential peptide (IGF-IPP) significantly inhibits apoM expression, in a dose- and a time-dependent manner, in the human hepatoma cell line, HepG2 cells. Insulin-induced down-regulation of apoM was blocked by AG1024 (a specific insulin receptor inhibitor) and LY294002 (a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor), which indicates that it is mediated via the activation of PI3K pathway. In contrast, PD98059 (a MAP kinase inhibitor) did not influence insulin-induced down-regulation of apoM expression, and activation of neither PPAR-alpha agonist (GW7647) nor PPAR-gamma agonist (GW1929) influences apoM expression in HepG2 cells, which indicates that regulation of apoM expression is not related to the activation of PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma in hepatic cells, whereas, both PPAR-alpha and PPAR-gamma agonists could inhibit apoB expression. Moreover, in the present study, we demonstrated that PPAR beta/delta agonist (GW501516) could inhibit both apoM and apoB expression in the HepG2 cells. In conclusion, this study shows that apoM expression is regulated by PI3-kinase in HepG2-cells. 相似文献

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) gene in vascular smooth muscle cells is up-regulated by IGF-I through an IGF-I receptor-mediated mechanism. In this study, we studied the possible involvement of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and PI 3-kinase signaling pathways in mediating IGF-I-regulated IGFBP-5 gene expression. The addition of Des(1-3)IGF-I, an IGF analog with reduced affinity to IGFBPs, resulted in a transient activation of p44 and p42 MAPK. Inhibition of the MAPK activation by PD98059, however, did not affect IGF-I-stimulated IGFBP-5 expression. Des(1-3)IGF-I treatment also strongly activated PI 3-kinase. This activation was probably mediated through IRS-1, because IGF-I stimulation resulted in a significant increase in IRS-1- but not IRS-2-associated PI 3-kinase activity. This activation occurred within 5 min and was sustained at high levels for over 6 h. Likewise, Des(1-3)IGF-I caused a long lasting activation of PKB/Akt and p70(s6k). When LY294002 and wortmannin, two specific inhibitors of PI 3-kinase, were added with Des(1-3)IGF-I, the IGF-I-regulated IGFBP-5 expression was negated. The addition of rapamycin, which inhibits IGF-I-induced p70(s6k) activation, significantly inhibited IGF-I-regulated IGFBP-5 gene expression. These results suggest that the action of IGF-I on IGFBP-5 gene expression requires the activation of the PI 3-kinase-PKB/Akt-p70(s6k) pathway but not the MAPK pathway in vascular smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

We have studied a possible role of extracellular zinc ion in the activation of p70S6k, which plays an important role in the progression of cells from the G(1) to S phase of the cell cycle. Treatment of Swiss 3T3 cells with zinc sulfate led to the activation and phosphorylation of p70S6k in a dose-dependent manner. The activation of p70S6k by zinc treatment was biphasic, the early phase being at 30 min followed by the late phase at 120 min. The zinc-induced activation of p70S6k was partially inhibited by down-regulation of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-responsive protein kinase C (PKC) by chronic treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, but this was not significant. Moreover, Go6976, a specific calcium-dependent PKC inhibitor, did not significantly inhibit the activation of p70S6k by zinc. These results demonstrate that the zinc-induced activation of p70S6k is not related to PKC. Also, extracellular calcium was not involved in the activation of p70S6k by zinc. Further characterization of the zinc-induced activation of p70S6k using specific inhibitors of the p70S6k signaling pathway, namely rapamycin, wortmannin, and LY294002, showed that zinc acted upstream of mTOR/FRAP/RAFT and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), because these inhibitors caused the inhibition of zinc-induced p70S6k activity. In addition, Akt, the upstream component of p70S6k, was activated by zinc in a biphasic manner, as was p70S6k. Moreover, dominant interfering alleles of Akt and PDK1 blocked the zinc-induced activation of p70S6k, whereas the lipid kinase activity of PI3K was potently activated by zinc. Taken together, our data suggest that zinc activates p70S6k through the PI3K signaling pathway. 相似文献

Neurotrophic factors (NTFs) can protect against or sensitize neurons to excitotoxicity. We studied the role played by various NTFs in the excitotoxic death of purified embryonic rat motor neurons. Motor neurons cultured in brain-derived neurotrophic factor, but not neurotrophin 3, glial-derived neurotrophic factor, or cardiotrophin 1, were sensitive to excitotoxic insult. BDNF also induces excitotoxic sensitivity (ES) in motor neurons when BDNF is combined with these other NTFs. The effect of BDNF depends on de novo protein and mRNA synthesis. Reagents that either activate or inhibit the 75-kDa NTF receptor p75NTR do not affect BDNF-induced ES. The low EC50 for BDNF-induced survival and ES suggests that TrkB mediates both of these biological activities. BDNF does not alter glutamate-evoked rises of intracellular Ca2+, suggesting BDNF acts downstream. Both wortmannin and LY294002, which specifically block the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) intracellular signaling pathway in motor neurons, inhibit BDNF-induced ES. We confirm this finding using a herpes simplex virus (HSV) that expresses the dominant negative p85 subunit of PI3K. Infecting motor neurons with this HSV, but not a control HSV, blocks activation of the PI3K pathway and BDNF-induced ES. Through the activation of TrkB and the PI3K signaling pathway, BDNF renders developing motor neurons susceptible to glutamate receptor-mediated cell death. 相似文献

Hepatoma-derived growth factor (HDGF) stimulates the migration, invasion and metastasis in several types of cancer cells. However, the mechanism underlying HDGF-stimulated migration remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the influence of HDGF on cytoskeleton remodeling and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway in non-transformed NIH/3T3 cells. Exogenous HDGF promoted the migration and the formation of dorsal ruffles and podosome rosettes. Besides, HDGF supply increased the PI3K expression and Akt phosphorylation in dose- and time-dependent manners. Application of LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, attenuated the HDGF-induced migration, dorsal ruffles and podosome rosettes formation. Consistently, the HDGF-overexpressing NIH/3T3 transfectants exhibited significantly increased motility and elevated PI3K/Akt activities, which were repressed by LY294002 or adenovirus-mediated overexpression of endogenous PI3K antagonist, PTEN. In summary, HDGF elicits the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling cascade, thereby promoting cytoskeleton remodeling to stimulate cellular migration. 相似文献

The Id proteins play an important role in proliferation, differentiation, and tumor development. We report here that Id gene expression can be regulated by the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR), a receptor that also participates in the regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation. Specifically, we found that the IGF-IR activated by its ligand was a strong inducer of Id2 gene expression in 32D murine hemopoietic cells. This activation was not simply the result of cellular proliferation, as Id2 gene expression was higher in 32D cells stimulated by IGF-I than in cells exponentially growing in interleukin-3. The up-regulation of Id2 gene expression was largely dependent on the presence of insulin receptor substrate-1, a major substrate of the IGF-IR and a potent activator of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. The role of PI3K activity in the up-regulation of Id2 gene expression by the IGF-IR was confirmed by different methods and in different cell types. In 32D cells, the up-regulation of Id2 gene expression by the PI3K pathway correlated with interleukin-3 independence and inhibition of differentiation. 相似文献
