Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) activates multiple signaling pathways. Two regions, C-terminal-activating region 1 (CTAR1) and CTAR2, have been identified within the cytoplasmic carboxy terminal domain that activates NF-kappaB. CTAR2 activates the canonical NF-kappaB pathway, which includes p50/p65 complexes. CTAR1 can activate both the canonical and noncanonical pathways to produce multiple distinct NF-kappaB dimers, including p52/p50, p52/p65, and p50/p50. CTAR1 also uniquely upregulates the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in epithelial cells. Increased p50-Bcl-3 complexes have been detected by chromatin precipitation on the NF-kappaB consensus motifs within the egfr promoter in CTAR1-expressing epithelial cells and nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. In this study, the mechanism responsible for the increase in Bcl-3 has been further investigated. The data indicate that LMP1-CTAR1 induces Bcl-3 mRNA and increases the nuclear translocation of both Bcl-3 and p50. LMP1-CTAR1 constitutively activates STAT3, and this activation was not due to the induction of interleukin 6 (IL-6). In LMP1-CTAR1-expressing cells, increased levels of activated STAT3 were detected by chromatin immunoprecipitation on STAT-binding sites located within both the promoter and the second intron of Bcl-3. A STAT3 inhibitor significantly reduced the activation of STAT3, as well as the CTAR1-mediated upregulation of Bcl-3 and EGFR. These data suggest that LMP1 activates distinct forms of NF-kappaB through multiple pathways. In addition to activating the canonical and noncanonical pathways, LMP1-CTAR1 constitutively activates STAT3 and increases Bcl-3. The increased nuclear Bcl-3 and p50 homodimer complexes positively regulate EGFR expression. These results indicate that LMP1 likely regulates distinct cellular genes by activating specific NF-kappaB pathways. 相似文献

Latent membrane protein 1 of Epstein-Barr virus stimulates processing of NF-kappa B2 p100 to p52 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Recent studies have identified a limited number of cellular receptors that can stimulate an alternative NF-kappa B activation pathway that depends upon the inducible processing of NF-kappa B2 p100 to p52. Here it is shown that the latent membrane protein (LMP)-1 of Epstein-Barr virus can trigger this signaling pathway in both B cells and epithelial cells. LMP1-induced p100 processing, which is mediated by the proteasome and is dependent upon de novo protein synthesis, results in the nuclear translocation of p52.RelB dimers. Previous studies have established that LMP1 also stimulates the canonical NF-kappa B-signaling pathway that triggers phosphorylation and degradation of I kappa B alpha. Interestingly, LMP1 activation of these two NF-kappa B pathways is shown here to require distinct regions of the LMP1 C-terminal cytoplasmic tail. Thus, C-terminal-activating region 1 is required for maximal triggering of p100 processing but is largely dispensable for stimulation of I kappa B alpha phosphorylation. In contrast, C-terminal-activating region 2 is critical for maximal LMP1 triggering of I kappa B alpha phosphorylation and up-regulation of p100 levels but does not contribute to activation of p100 processing. Because p100 deletion mutants that constitutively produce p52 oncogenically transform fibroblasts in vitro, it is likely that stimulation of p100 processing by LMP1 will play an important role in its transforming function. 相似文献

Epstein-barr virus latent membrane protein 1: Structure and functions 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
The Epstein-Barr virus latent membrane protein (LMP) 1 is a versatile protein that has profound effects on target cells through its effect on constitutive cellular proteins, e.g. TRAFs, TRADD, RIP, JAK3, BRAM1, and p85. LMP1 can stimulate or inhibit signaling pathways, resulting in transformation of rodent fibroblast cell lines, blockade of differentiation in epithelial cells, upregulation of anti-apoptotic proteins, production of cytokines, upregulation of cell surface markers, upregulation of DNA methyltransferase activity, and downregulation of cell adhesion molecules and cyclin-dependent kinases. Overall, this results in greater transformation and survival in LMP1-expressing cells. Within nasopharyngeal carcinoma biopsy tissues, a naturally occurring LMP1 variant has been identified as having a 10-amino acid deletion in the C-terminus that seems to confer greater transformation potential than non-deleted LMP1. The role of LMP1 as a viral oncogene and its interaction with cellular factors are discussed. 相似文献

Bortezomib, an inhibitor of the 26S proteasome, is currently approved for treatment of multiple myeloma and is being studied for therapy of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. We found that Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive B cells with type III latency were more susceptible to killing by bortezomib than those with type I latency. Bortezomib induced apoptosis of EBV lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) by inducing cleavage of caspases 8 and 9; apoptosis was inhibited by pretreatment with a pan-caspase inhibitor. Bortezomib reduced the levels of the p50 and p65 components of the canonical NF-kappaB pathway and reduced the level of p52 in the noncanonical NF-kappaB pathway, which is induced by EBV LMP1. Bortezomib inhibited expression of cIAP-1, cIAP-2, and XIAP, which are regulated by NF-kappaB and function as inhibitors of apoptosis. Bortezomib did not inhibit expression of several other antiapoptotic proteins, including Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL. Finally, bortezomib significantly prolonged the survival of severe combined immunodeficiency mice inoculated with LCLs. These findings suggest that bortezomib may represent a novel strategy for the treatment of certain EBV-associated lymphomas. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) transforms rodent fibroblasts and is expressed in most EBV-associated malignancies. LMP1 (transformation effector site 2 [TES2]/C-terminal activation region 2 [CTAR2]) activates NF-κB, p38, Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), and interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) pathways. We have investigated LMP1 TES2 genome-wide RNA effects at 4 time points after LMP1 TES2 expression in HEK-293 cells. By using a false discovery rate (FDR) of <0.001 after correction for multiple hypotheses, LMP1 TES2 caused >2-fold changes in 1,916 mRNAs; 1,479 RNAs were upregulated and 437 were downregulated. In contrast to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) stimulation, which transiently upregulates many target genes, LMP1 TES2 maintained most RNA effects through the time course, despite robust and sustained induction of negative feedback regulators, such as IκBα and A20. LMP1 TES2-regulated RNAs encode many NF-κB signaling proteins and secondary interacting proteins. Consequently, many LMP1 TES2-regulated RNAs encode proteins that form an extensive interactome. Gene set enrichment analyses found LMP1 TES2-upregulated genes to be significantly enriched for pathways in cancer, B- and T-cell receptor signaling, and Toll-like receptor signaling. Surprisingly, LMP1 TES2 and IκBα superrepressor coexpression decreased LMP1 TES2 RNA effects to only 5 RNAs, with FDRs of <0.001-fold and >2-fold changes. Thus, canonical NF-κB activation is critical for almost all LMP1 TES2 RNA effects in HEK-293 cells and a more significant therapeutic target than previously appreciated. 相似文献

Cells of the weakly CD14 positive human B cell line RPMI 8226, clone 1, will mobilize NF-kappaB (p50/p65 and p50/p50) proteins and produce TNF mRNA when stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). When such cells are precultured with a low amount of LPS (50-250 ng/ml) for 3 - 4 days followed by a secondary stimulation with a high dose of LPS (1 microg/ml) then the cytokine expression is strongly reduced, i. e. the cells have become tolerant. Western blot analysis of proteins of the NF-kappaB/rel family demonstrates cytoplasmic p50 and p65 for naive B cells plus a low level of p52. While with tolerance induction the pattern of p50 and p65 proteins remains essentially unchanged, the LPS tolerant 8226 cells show a dramatic increase of both p52 protein and its p100 precursor in the cytosol. This p52 is found strongly upregulated in Western blots of extracts from purified nuclei of tolerant cells. Also, gelshift analysis with the -605 kappaB motif of the human TNF 5'-region shows an additional high mobility complex in LPS tolerant cells -a complex that is supershifted with an anti-p52 antibody. Functional analysis with the -1064 TNF 5'-region in front of the luciferase reporter gene demonstrates that transactivation of the TNF promoter is strongly reduced in tolerant cells. Also, overexpression of p52 will suppress activity of TNF promoter reporter gene constructs. Taken together these data show that tolerance to LPS in the human RPMI 8226 B cell line involves upregulation of the p52 (NF-kappaB2) gene, which appears to be instrumental in the blockade of TNF gene expression. 相似文献

The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) is involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and trophoblastic invasion during early pregnancy. Our previous studies demonstrated that inhibition of UPP suppresses expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and -9. LMP2 is an important proteasome subunit that is critical for proteasome activity. This study investigated the regulatory mechanism of LMP2 on the expression and activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Our results showed that transfection of LMP2 siRNA plasmid into the human invasive extravillous trophoblast cell line (HTR8/Svneo) could significantly suppress expression of LMP2 mRNA and protein. The mRNA expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and their activities were markedly decreased in the LMP2-inhibited cells. Inhibition of LMP2 could also reduce IkappaBalpha mRNA level, although the expression of phosphorylated IkappaBalpha was increased. In the LMP2-inhibited cells, expression of mRNA encoding NF-kappaB subunits p50 and p65 remained normal, but the p50 protein level was significantly decreased in the cytosolic and nuclear extracts, while p65 protein was markedly reduced only in the nuclear extract. We also demonstrated that blockage of the NF-kappaB pathway by the NF-kappaB translocation inhibitor SN50 markedly reduced the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in HTR8/Svneo cells, a result that is fully consistent with the results from the LMP2-inhibited HTR8/Svneo cells. These data suggest that LMP2 contributes to IkappaBalpha degradation and p50 generation, and that inhibition of LMP2 suppresses expression and activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 by blocking the transfer of active NF-kappaB heterodimers into the nucleus. 相似文献

Latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1) of Epstein-Barr virus induces constitutive signaling in infected cells. LMP1 signaling requires oligomerization of LMP1 via its transmembrane domain, localization to lipid rafts in the membrane, and association of the LMP1 cytoplasmic domain to adaptor proteins, such as the tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factors (TRAFs). Protein complementation is a novel technique to examine protein-protein interaction through the assembly of functional fluorescent proteins or enzymes from inactive fragments. A previous study in our lab demonstrated the use of bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) to study the assembly of the LMP1 signaling complexes within the plasma membrane of mammalian cells. In the present study, LMP1 was used as bait in a genome-wide BiFC screen with an enhanced retroviral mutagen to identify new LMP1-binding proteins. Our screen identified a novel LMP1-binding protein, transmembrane protein 134 (Tmem134). Tmem134 is a candidate oncogene that is amplified in breast cancer cell lines. Binding, colocalization, and cofractionation between LMP1 and Tmem134 were confirmed. Finally, Tmem134 affected LMP1-induced NF-κB induction. Together, these data suggest that BiFC is a unique and novel platform to identify proteins recruited to the LMP1-signaling complex. 相似文献

The low molecular mass polypeptide (LMP2, LMP7, and MECL-1) genes code for beta-type subunits of the proteasome, a multimeric complex that degrades proteins into peptides as part of the MHC class I-mediated Ag-presenting pathway. These gene products are up-regulated in response to infection by IFN-gamma and replace the corresponding constitutively expressed subunits (X, Y, and Z) during the immune response. In humans, the LMP2 and LMP7 genes both reside within the class II region of the MHC (6p21.3), while MECL-1 is located at 16q22.1. In the present study, we have identified all three IFN-gamma-regulated beta-type proteasome subunits in Fugu, which are present as a cluster within the Fugu MHC class I region. We show that in this species, LMP7, LMP2, and MECL-1 are linked. Also within this cluster is an LMP2-like subunit (which seems specific to all teleosts tested to date) and a closely linked LMP7 pseudogene, indicating that within Fugu and potentially other teleosts, there has been an additional regional duplication involving these genes. 相似文献

We have shown previously that interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7), a multifunctional protein intimately involved in latent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, is induced as well as activated by EBV latent membrane protein 1 (LMP1), the principal EBV oncoprotein. Since the LMP1 promoter (LMP1p) contains an interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE), we hypothesized that IRF7 might be able to regulate LMP1 expression and thus participate in a regulatory circuit between these two genes. In this study, IRF7 was shown first to activate LMP1p in transient transfection assays. Compared with EBV nuclear antigen 2 (EBNA2), the most potent viral transactivator of LMP1p, IRF7 has a lesser effect (approximately 10% that of EBNA2) on induction of LMP1p. Study with IRF7 deletion mutants showed that IRF7 functional domains have similar effects on both the beta interferon (IFN-beta) and LMP1 promoters in BJAB and 293 cells, and study with IRF7 phosphomimetic mutants showed that IRF7 phosphorylation may be involved in the activation of these two promoters. Further, the ISRE in LMP1p responds to IRF7 induction and IRF7 binds to this element. In the EBV-positive cell line P3HR1, which lacks the complete EBNA2 and EBV-encoded leader protein genes and hence expresses low-level LMP1, IRF7 alone can notably increase the endogenous LMP1 mRNA and protein levels. These results indicate that LMP1 is regulated by this host cell gene in addition to the viral factor, EBNA2, and may help to explain how LMP1 is expressed in type II latency in the absence of EBNA2. Moreover, IRF7 can regulate a viral gene in addition to a host cellular gene such as the IFN-beta gene. Together with the previous data that LMP1 can induce IRF7 expression and facilitate IRF7 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation, these results suggest a positive regulatory circuit between IRF7 and LMP1. 相似文献

The Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) proteins latent membrane proteins 1 and 2 (LMP1 and LMP2) are frequently expressed in EBV-associated lymphoid and epithelial cancers and have complex effects on cell signaling and growth. The effects of these proteins on epithelial cell growth were assessed in vivo using transgenic mice driven by the keratin 14 promoter (K14). The development of papillomas and carcinomas was determined in the tumor initiator and promoter model using dimethyl benzanthracene (DMBA), followed by repeated treatments of 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA). In these assays, LMP1 functioned as a weak tumor promoter and increased papilloma formation. In contrast, mice expressing LMP2A did not induce or promote papilloma formation. Transgenic LMP1 mice had slightly increased development of squamous cell carcinoma; however, the development of carcinoma was significantly increased in the doubly transgenic mice expressing both LMP1 and LMP2A. DMBA treatment induces an activating mutation in the Harvey-ras (H-ras(61)) oncogene, and this mutation was identified in most papillomas and carcinomas although several papillomas and carcinomas in K14-LMP1 and K14-LMP1/LMP2A mice lacked the mutation. Analysis of signaling pathways that are known to be activated by LMP1 and/or LMP2 indicated that all genotypes had high levels of activated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and Stat3 in carcinomas with significantly higher activation in the doubly transgenic carcinomas. These findings suggest that, in combination, LMP1 and LMP2 contribute to carcinoma progression and that this may reflect the combined effects of the proteins on activation of multiple signaling pathways. This study is the first to characterize the effects of LMP2 on tumor initiation and promotion and to identify an effect of the combined expression of LMP1 and LMP2 on the increase of carcinoma development. 相似文献
