We propose a new mechanism to explain autoinhibition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/ErbB) family of receptor tyrosine kinases based on a structural model that postulates both their juxtamembrane and protein tyrosine kinase domains bind electrostatically to acidic lipids in the plasma membrane, restricting access of the kinase domain to substrate tyrosines. Ligand-induced dimerization promotes partial trans autophosphorylation of ErbB1, leading to a rapid rise in intracellular [Ca(2+)] that can activate calmodulin. We postulate the Ca(2+)/calmodulin complex binds rapidly to residues 645--660 of the juxtamembrane domain, reversing its net charge from +8 to -8 and repelling it from the negatively charged inner leaflet of the membrane. The repulsion has two consequences: it releases electrostatically sequestered phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP(2)), and it disengages the kinase domain from the membrane, allowing it to become fully active and phosphorylate an adjacent ErbB molecule or other substrate. We tested various aspects of the model by measuring ErbB juxtamembrane peptide binding to phospholipid vesicles using both a centrifugation assay and fluorescence correlation spectroscopy; analyzing the kinetics of interactions between ErbB peptides, membranes, and Ca(2+)/calmodulin using fluorescence stop flow; assessing ErbB1 activation in Cos1 cells; measuring fluorescence resonance energy transfer between ErbB peptides and PIP(2); and making theoretical electrostatic calculations on atomic models of membranes and ErbB juxtamembrane and kinase domains. 相似文献

The EGFR is a validated anticancer target whose successful exploitation has added novel agents to our current treatment protocols. Subsets of patients have shown to benefit the most from these therapies, and though these differential responses have yet to be completely defined, they are mostly of genetic nature. Egfr amplifications have shown to increase sensitivity to both small molecule inhibitors and specific monoclonal antibodies targeting the EGFR. A somatic/germline egfr intron 1 CA repeat sequence polymorphism has shown to have an important role in the control of EGFR protein expression, and has been linked to an increased risk of familial breast cancer, a worse outcome in patients with colorectal cancer, and anti-EGFR treatment efficacy in preclinical models. Egfr activating mutations have been recently described in lung cancer linking a cluster of genotypes with sensitivity to EGFR tyrosine kinase pharmacological inhibition. Despite the initial excitement that this discovery elicited, follow-up reports have not unequivocally confirmed this finding, and these drugs have been solidly efficacious both in individual patients and in diseases generally lacking egfr mutations such as pancreas cancer. We are witnessing exciting developments in the field of the pharmacogenomics of cancer, and this has particularly evolved in the area pertaining EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This review will discuss the background and currently available preclinical and clinical data. 相似文献

Fluorescence resonance energy transfer between epidermal growth factor (EGF) molecules, labeled with fluorescent reporter groups, was used as a monitor for EGF receptor-receptor interactions in plasma membranes isolated from human epidermoid A431 cells. Epidermal growth factor molecules labeled at the amino terminus with fluorescein isothiocyanate served as donor molecules in these energy transfer measurements, while EGF molecules labeled with eosin isothiocyanate at the amino terminus served as the energy acceptors. Both of these derivatives were shown to be active in binding to membrane receptors and in the activation of the endogenous receptor/tyrosine kinase activity. We found that membranes in the absence of added metal ion activators showed relatively little energy transfer (approximately 10% donor quenching) between the labeled growth factors. However, divalent metal ion activators of the EGF receptor/tyrosine kinase caused a significant increase in the extent of energy transfer between the labeled EGF molecules. Specifically, in the presence of 20 mM MgCl2, the extent of quenching of the donor fluorescence increased to 25% (from 10% in the absence of metal), while in the presence of 4 mM MnCl2, the extent of energy transfer was increased still further to 40-50%. The addition of an excess of EDTA resulted in the reversal of the observed energy transfer to basal levels. The increased energy transfer in the presence of these divalent cations correlated well with the ability of these metals to stimulate the EGF receptor/tyrosine kinase activity. However, the extent of receptor-receptor interactions measured by energy transfer was independent of receptor autophosphorylation. Overall, these results suggest that conditions under which the EGF receptor is primed to be active as a tyrosine kinase, within a lipid milieu, result in an increased aggregation of the receptor. 相似文献

We report herein the design and synthesis of novel azaspirocycle or azetidine substituted 4-anilinoquinazoline derivatives. The EGFR inhibitory activities and in vitro antitumor potency of these newly synthesized compounds against two lung cancer cell lines HCC827 and A549 were evaluated. Most of the target compounds possess good inhibitory potency. In particular, compounds 21g with 2-oxa-6-azaspiro[3.4]octane substituent was found to possess higher EGFR inhibitory activities and similar antitumor potency comparing to the lead compound gefitinib with improved water solubility. 相似文献

To investigate the role of receptor aggregation in EGF binding, we construct a mathematical model describing receptor dimerization (and higher levels of aggregation) that permits an analysis of the influence of receptor aggregation on ligand binding. We answer two questions: (a) Can Scatchard plots of EGF binding data be analyzed productively in terms of two noninteracting receptor populations with different affinities if EGF induced receptor aggregation occurs? No. If two affinities characterize aggregated and monomeric EGF receptors, we show that the Scatchard plot should have curvature characteristic of positively cooperative binding, the opposite of that observed. Thus, the interpretation that the high affinity population represents aggregated receptors and the low affinity population nonaggregated receptors is wrong. If the two populations are interpreted without reference to receptor aggregation, an important determinant of Scatchard plot shape is ignored. (b) Can a model for EGF receptor aggregation and EGF binding be consistent with the "negative curvature" (i.e., curvature characteristic of negatively cooperative binding) observed in most Scatchard plots of EGF binding data? Yes. In addition, the restrictions on the model parameters required to obtain negatively curved Scatchard plots provide new information about binding and aggregation. In particular, EGF binding to aggregated receptors must be negatively cooperative, i.e., binding to a receptor in a dimer (or higher oligomer) having one receptor already bound occurs with lower affinity than the initial binding event. A third question we consider is whether the model we present can be used to detect the presence of mechanisms other than receptor aggregation that are contributing to Scatchard plot curvature. For the membrane and cell binding data we analyzed, the best least squares fits of the model to each of the four data sets deviate systematically from the data, indicating that additional factors are also important in shaping the binding curves. Because we have controlled experimentally for many sources of receptor heterogeneity, we have limited the potential explanations for residual Scatchard plot curvature. 相似文献

Cellular uptake, nuclear translocation, and chromatin binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against the protein domain of the EGF surface receptor (MAb 425) and against the carbohydrate Y determinant on the EGF receptor (MAb Br 15-6A) were analyzed in cell lines that express surface EGF receptor. Both EGF and MAb 425 were translocated to the nucleus and bound in nondegraded form to the chromatin of all cells tested. MAb Br 15-6A was taken up only by SW 948 colorectal carcinoma cells which express EGF receptor whereas neither EGF nor MAb 425 was taken up by SW 707 colorectal carcinoma cells which do not express EGF receptor. MAb 425 immunoprecipitated a 230- to 250-kDa chromatin protein, which appears to be the EGF chromatin receptor. EGF was localized in a single EcoRI DNA fragment suggesting that the chromatin binding was highly specific. Binding of EGF to primarily DNase II-sensitive chromatin regions protected these regions from nuclease action. The role of growth factor binding to chromatin in neoplastic transformation is discussed. 相似文献

Emerging clinical and pre-clinical data indicate that both insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) and members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) exhibit significant cross-talk in human cancers. Therefore, a small molecule that successfully inhibits the signaling of both classes of oncogenic kinases might provide an attractive agent for chemotherapeutic use. Herein, we disclose the structure activity relationships that led to the synthesis and biological characterization of 14, a novel small molecule inhibitor of both IGF-IR and members of the epidermal growth factor family of RTKs. 相似文献

Mapping of the human gene for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on the p13 leads to q22 region of chromosome 7 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
We previously reported that the structural gene for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) can be mapped to the p22 leads to qter region of human chromosome 7 (Shimizu et al., 1979, 1980). In the present study, we produced two series of human-mouse cell hybrids by fusing mouse A9 cells that are deficient in EGFR with the human diploid fibroblast lines GM1356, 46,XX,t(1;7)(p34;p13), and GM2068, 46,XX,t(6;7)(q27;q22), both of which possess EGF receptors. Expression of EGF binding ability in the former series of cell hybrids was correlated with the retention of the human translocation chromosome containing the 7p13 leads to qter region, and in the latter series of cell hybrid it was correlated with the retention of the human translocation chromosome containing the 7pter leads to q22 region. Therefore, the EGFR gene can be localized in the p13 leads to q22 region of chromosome 7. 相似文献

Integrin-mediated cell adhesion cooperates with growth factor receptors in the control of cell proliferation, cell survival, and cell migration. One mechanism to explain these synergistic effects is the ability of integrins to induce phosphorylation of growth factor receptors, for instance the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. Here we define some aspects of the molecular mechanisms regulating integrin-dependent EGF receptor phosphorylation. We show that in the early phases of cell adhesion integrins associate with EGF receptors on the cell membrane in a macromolecular complex including the adaptor protein p130Cas and the c-Src kinase, the latter being required for adhesion-dependent assembly of the macromolecular complex. We also show that the integrin cytoplasmic tail, c-Src kinase, and the p130Cas adaptor protein are required for phosphorylation of EGF receptor in response to integrin-mediated adhesion. We show that integrins induce phosphorylation of EGF receptor on tyrosine residues 845, 1068, 1086, and 1173, but not on residue 1148, a major site of phosphorylation in response to EGF. In addition we find that integrin-mediated adhesion increases the amount of EGF receptor expressed on the cell surface. Therefore these data indicate that integrin-mediated adhesion induces assembly of a macromolecular complex containing c-Src and p130Cas and leads to phosphorylation of specific EGF receptor tyrosine residues. 相似文献

The binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) to its receptor induces tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C gamma (PLC gamma), which appears to be necessary for its activation leading to phosphatidyl inositol (PI) hydrolysis. Moreover, EGF-receptor (EGF-R) activation and autophosphorylation results in binding of PLC gamma to the tyrosine phosphorylated carboxy-terminus of the receptor. To gain further insights into the mechanisms and interactions regulating these processes, we have analyzed transfected NIH-3T3 cells expressing two EGF-R carboxy-terminal deletion mutants (CD63 and CD126) with reduced capacity to stimulate PI hydrolysis, Ca2+ rises, and DNA synthesis. In fact, the CD126 mutant lacking 126 carboxy-terminal amino acids, including four tyrosine autophosphorylation sites, was unable to stimulate PI hydrolysis or Ca2+ rise in response to EGF. Surprisingly, EGF binding to the cell lines expressing CD63 or CD126 mutants was followed by similar stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma. Our results suggest that although necessary, tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC gamma may not be sufficient for stimulation and PI hydrolysis. It is clear, however, that the carboxy-terminal region of EGF-R is involved in regulation of interactions with cellular targets and therefore plays a crucial role in postreceptor signaling pathways. 相似文献

To overcome the drug-resistance of first generation EGFR inhibitors and the nonselective toxicities of second generation inhibitors among NSCLC patients, a series of 5-(methylthio)pyrimidine derivatives were discovered as novel EGFR inhibitors, which harbored not only potent enzymatic and antiproliferative activities against EGFRL858R/T790M mutants, but good selectivity over wide-type form of the receptor. This goal was achieved by employing structure-based drug design and traditional optimization strategies, based on WZ4002 and CO1686. These derivatives inhibited the enzymatic activity of EGFRL858R/T790M mutants with IC50 values in subnanomolar ranges, while exhibiting hundreds of fold less potency on EGFRWT. These compounds also strongly inhibited the proliferation of H1975 non-small cell lung cancer cells bearing EGFRL858R/T790M, while being significantly less toxic to A431 human epithelial carcinoma cells with overexpressed EGFRWT. The EGFR kinase inhibitory and antiproliferative activities were further validated by Western blot analysis for activation of EGFR and the downstream signaling in cancer cells. 相似文献

To study the activity of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor during EGF-directed internalization, liver epithelial cells were exposed to EGF at 37 degrees C for various periods of time, washed, and homogenized at 0 degrees C. EGF receptor autophosphorylation was assessed in homogenates using [gamma-32P]ATP. Autophosphorylation was stimulated 3- to 6-fold in homogenates of cells incubated with EGF (100 ng/ml) for 15 min but was at or below basal levels in homogenates of cells treated with EGF for 2.5-5 min. This was surprising because immunoblotting revealed that EGF receptor phosphotyrosine (P-Tyr) content in intact cells was near maximal from 30 s to 5 min after EGF treatment. Excess EGF (1 microgram/ml), added after homogenization but prior to the assay, increased autophosphorylation in homogenates of cells that had not been treated with EGF, but failed to increase activity in homogenates of cells treated with EGF in culture for 2.5-5 min. Suppression of tyrosine phosphorylation of an exogenous kinase substrate was also observed at times paralleling the suppression of EGF receptor autophosphorylation. The transient suppression of receptor autophosphorylation in the cell-free assay was not explained by persistent occupation of autophosphorylation sites by phosphate added in the intact cells. The sites were greater than 80% dephosphorylated during the homogenization. Additionally phosphatase inhibition that prevented the normal loss of EGF receptor P-Tyr in intact cells at 15 min did not affect the pattern of early (2.5-5 min) suppression and later (15 min) stimulation of autophosphorylation measured in the cell-free assay. The suppression was not explained by activation of protein kinase C in that depletion of greater than 95% of cellular protein kinase C activity by an 18-h incubation of cells with 10 microM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) did not affect the early suppression of autophosphorylation in EGF-treated cells. Moreover, under the conditions tested, activation of protein kinase C by short-term treatment (0.5-10 min) with TPA or angiotensin II did not appreciably alter subsequent autophosphorylation in the cell-free assay. In contrast, a 30 degrees C preincubation of homogenates from cells with suppressed EGF receptor autophosphorylation led to the recovery of the ability of EGF to stimulate EGF receptor autophosphorylation. These results suggest that a rapid reversible protein kinase C-independent process prevents detection of EGF receptor kinase activity during an early phase of EGF-dependent receptor internalization. 相似文献

The tyrosine kinase activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR-TK) was determined at varying poly-Glu6Ala3Tyr1 (GAT) or [Val5]-angiotensin II (AT) and constant ATP concentrations and vice versa. With GAT as substrate, double reciprocal plots intersected practically on the abscissa following EGFR-TK pre-activation with EGF, but below the abscissa without EGF pre-activation. The EGFR-TK inhibitors App(NH)p (5'-adenylyl-beta, gamma-imidodiphosphate) and ADP were competitive with ATP and noncompetitive with GAT. Four families of 1/v vs. 1/[ATP] plots, constructed at different fixed concentrations of ADP and a different constant concentration of GAT for each family, yielded Slope1/ATP replots which intersected to the left of the ordinate and below the abscissa. GAT and AT, as cosubstrates, were competitive with each other and noncompetitive with ATP; 1/v vs. 1/[GAT] or 1/[AT] plots were hyperbolic and reached horizontal asymptotes when v was expressed as the rate of common product formation. All data were subjected to computer best-fit analysis by a program written especially for this purpose. We conclude that (i) the EGFR-TK reaction follows a Sequential Bi-Bi Rapid Equilibrium Random mechanism, and (ii) EGF induces conformational changes in the EGFR-TK active center which lead to marked decreases in the apparent dissociation constants of both substrates of the kinase reaction and a concomitant increase in initial velocities and Vmax (apparent). 相似文献

Bi-allelic-inactivating mutations of the VHL tumor suppressor gene are found in the majority of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (VHL(-/-) RCC). VHL(-/-) RCC cells overproduce hypoxia-inducible genes as a consequence of constitutive, oxygen-independent activation of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF). While HIF activation explains the highly vascularized nature of VHL loss lesions, the relative role of HIF in oncogenesis and loss of growth control remains unknown. Here, we report that HIF plays a central role in promoting unregulated growth of VHL(-/-) RCC cells by activating the transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha)/epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R) pathway. Dominant-negative HIF and enzymatic inhibition of EGF-R were equally efficient at abolishing EGF-R activation and serum-independent growth of VHL(-/-) RCC cells. TGF-alpha is the only known EGF-R ligand that has a VHL-dependent expression profile and its overexpression by VHL(-/-) RCC cells is a direct consequence of HIF activation. In contrast to TGF-alpha, other HIF targets, including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), were unable to stimulate serum-independent growth of VHL(-/-) RCC cells. VHL(-/-) RCC cells expressing reintroduced type 2C mutants of VHL, and which retain the ability to degrade HIF, fail to overproduce TGF-alpha and proliferate in serum-free media. These data link HIF with the overproduction of a bona fide renal cell mitogen leading to activation of a pathway involved in growth of renal cancer cells. Moreover, our results suggest that HIF might be involved in oncogenesis to a much higher extent than previously appreciated. 相似文献

Loss of cell-matrix adhesion is often associated with acute epithelial injury, suggesting that "anoikis" may be an important contributor to cell death. Resistance against anoikis is a key characteristic of transformed cells. When nontransformed epithelia are injured, activation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) by paracrine/autocrine release of soluble ligands can induce a prosurvival program, but there is generally evidence for concomitant dedifferentiation. The EGFR ligand, heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HB-EGF), is synthesized as a membrane-anchored precursor that can activate the EGFR via juxtacrine signaling or can be released and act as a soluble growth factor. In Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, expression of membrane-anchored HB-EGF increases cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion. Therefore, these studies were designed to test the effects of juxtacrine HB-EGF signaling upon cell survival and epithelial integrity when cells are denied proper cell-matrix interactions. Cells expressing a noncleavable mutated form of membrane-anchored HB-EGF demonstrated increased survival from anoikis, formed larger cell aggregates, and maintained epithelial characteristics even following prolonged detachment from the substratum. Physical association between membrane-anchored HB-EGF and EGFR was observed. Signaling studies indicated synergistic effects of EGFR activation and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling to regulate apoptotic and survival pathways. In contrast, although administration of exogenous EGF partially suppressed anoikis in wild type cells, it also led to an increased expression of mesenchymal markers, suggesting dedifferentiation. Taken together, we propose a novel role for membrane-anchored HB-EGF in the cytoprotection of epithelial cells. 相似文献
