Integrin-mediated cell adhesion regulates a multitude of cellular responses, including proliferation, survival and cross-talk between different cellular signalling pathways. So far, integrins have been mainly shown to convey permissive signals enabling anchorage-dependent receptor tyrosine kinase signalling. Here we show that a collagen-binding integrin alpha(1)beta(1) functions as a negative regulator of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signalling through the activation of a protein tyrosine phosphatase. The cytoplasmic tail of alpha(1) integrin selectively interacts with a ubiquitously expressed protein tyrosine phosphatase TCPTP (T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase) and activates it after cell adhesion to collagen. The activation results in reduced EGFR phosphorylation after EGF stimulation. Introduction of the alpha(1) cytoplasmic domain peptide into cells induces phosphatase activation and inhibits EGF-induced cell proliferation and anchorage-independent growth of malignant cells. These data are the first demonstration of the regulation of TCPTP activity in vivo and represent a new molecular paradigm of integrin-mediated negative regulation of receptor tyrosine kinase signalling.  相似文献

Protein phosphorylation: hormones, drugs, and bioregulation   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
S Shenolikar 《FASEB journal》1988,2(12):2753-2764
Reversible protein phosphorylation is widely recognized as an important mechanism for the regulation of cell function by a variety of physiological stimuli. Exposure of cells to hormones, neurotransmitters, and growth factors initiates a cascade of events facilitated by intracellular second messengers and mediated in many cases by protein kinases and/or phosphatases. The subsequent covalent modification of target proteins and the associated changes in their function account for the physiological response. Considerable evidence points to cross-talk between multiple membrane-associated signaling processes leading to coordinated regulation of cellular processes. The role of protein phosphorylation at multiple points in the pathways that integrate these signals is becoming increasingly apparent. Pharmacological modulation of cellular protein phosphorylation has yielded useful information on the molecular events involved. This review surveys some of the recent progress in hormonal regulation of cell function, focusing on examples that may provide new insight into the role of protein phosphorylation in the coordinated control of cellular processes by physiological stimuli.  相似文献

In mammalian cells, a growing body of evidence indicates a relationship between cellular redox balance and tyrosine kinase-mediated cell signalling. The phosphorylative cascade activated by extracellular signals is inhibited by reducing conditions and stimulated by oxidative stress, in particular at the level of mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation. The mussel Mytilus typically shows variations in antioxidant defence systems and decreases in glutathione content in response to both natural and contaminant environmental stressors. In isolated mussel digestive gland cells, both epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) have been recently demonstrated to activate tyrosine kinase receptors leading to multiple responses; among these, stimulation of the key glycolytic enzymes phosphofructokinase (PFK) and pyruvate kinase (PK). The present study investigates the possible relationship between the tyrosine kinase-mediated metabolic effects of growth factors and cellular redox balance in mussel cells. The results demonstrate that the effects of growth factors on glycolytic enzymes were abolished by cell pretreatment with the antioxidant N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC). On the other hand, in cells where the glutathione content and synthesis were lowered either in vitro (by cell pretreatment with buthionine sulfoximine (BSO)), or in vivo (by mussel exposure to Cu2+) the metabolic effects of growth factors were unaffected. Moreover, the results show that, in both control and glutathione-depleted cells, growth factors can also regulate the level of glutathione apparently by modulating, via phosphorylative mechanisms involving MAPK activation, the activity of γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase (GCS), the rate limiting enzyme in GSH biosynthesis. Overall, this study extends the hypothesis that cell signalling is intimately related to redox balance in marine invertebrate cells.  相似文献

Activation of phospholipase D (PLD) represents part of an important signalling pathway in mammalian cells, Phospholipase D catalyzed hydrolysis of phospholipids generates phosphatidic acid (PA) which is subsequently metabolized to lyso-PA (LPA) or diacylglycerol (DAG). While DAG is an endogenous activator of protein kinase C (PKC), PA and LPA have been recognized as second messengers as well, Activation of PLD in response to an external stimulus may involve PKC, Ca2+, G-proteins and/or tyrosine kinases. In this review, we will address the role of protein tyrosine phosphorylation in growth factor-, agonist- and oxidant-mediated activation of PLD. Furthermore, a possible link between PKC, Ca2+, G-proteins and tyrosine kinases is discussed to indicate the complexity involved in the regulation of PLD in mammalian cells.  相似文献

The phosphorylation of tyrosine, and to a lesser extent threonine and serine, plays a key role in the regulation of signal transduction during a plethora of eukaryotic cell functions, including cell activation, cell-cycle progression, cytoskeletal rearrangement and cell movement, differentiation, apoptosis and metabolic homeostasis. In vivo, tyrosine phosphorylation is reversible and dynamic; the phosphorylation states are governed by the opposing activities of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs)2 and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) act as cellular messengers in cellular processes such as mitogenic signal transduction, gene expression, regulation of cell proliferation, senescence and apoptosis. Redox regulated proteins include PTPs and PTKs, although with opposite regulation of enzymatic activity. Transient oxidation of thiols in PTPs leads to their inactivation by the formation of either an intramolecular S-S bridge or a sulfenyl-amide bond. Conversely, oxidation of PTKs leads to their activation, either by direct SH modification or, indirectly, by concomitant inhibition of PTPs that guides to sustained activation of PTKs. This review focuses on the redox regulation of both PTPs and PTKs and the interplay of their specular regulation.  相似文献

Cofilin is a small protein that belongs to the family of actin-depolymerizing factors (ADF). The main cellular function of cofilin is to change cytoskeletal dynamics and thus to modulate cell motility and cytokinesis. We have recently demonstrated that the actin cytoskeleton is involved in the modulation of Ca(2+) signalling in starfish oocytes. To extend these observations, we have explored whether cofilin influences Ca(2+) signalling in the oocytes. Here we show that microinjection of the functionally active cofilin alters the Ca(2+) signalling mediated by the three major second messengers, InsP(3), NAADP, and cADPr. Cofilin intensifies the Ca(2+) signals induced by InsP(3) and NAADP, and delays those induced by cADPr. Furthermore, the injection of cofilin increases the Ca(2+) signals during hormone-induced oocyte maturation and fertilization. The results suggest that the dynamic regulation of F-actin by its binding proteins may play an important role in the modulation of intracellular Ca(2+) signalling.  相似文献

Osteoclast signalling pathways   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
The osteoclast is a monocyte-derived cell with complex regulatory control due to its role, balancing calcium homeostasis with skeletal modelling and repair. Normal differentiation requires tyrosine kinase- and tumor necrosis-family receptors, normally fms and RANK. Ligands for these receptors plus unidentified serum or cell-presented factor(s) are needed for in vitro differentiation, possibly signalling via an immune-like tyrosine kinase acceptor molecule. Osteoclast development and activity are increased by cytokines signalling through GP130, such as IL-6, by TGF-beta, and by IL-1, although these cannot replace serum. Other tyrosine kinase receptors including kit and met can augment fms signalling, and TNFs other than RANKL, including TNFalpha and TRAIL, modify RANK signalling, which is also susceptible to interference by interferons. The situation is further complicated by G-protein coupled receptors including the calcitonin receptor, by integrin or calcium-mediated signals, and by estrogen receptors, which operate in bone largely via NO downstream signals. Differentiation, activity, and survival signals merge in intracellular second messengers. These include cytoplasmic kinases of several families; differentiation pathways often terminate in Erk/Jun kinases or NF-kappaB. Key regulatory intermediates include TRAF6, src, Smad3, phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase, Jak/Stat, and the cGMP-dependent protein kinase I. There are substantial uncertainties regarding how intracellular agents connect to primary signals. The frontier includes characterization of how scaffolding/adapter proteins, such as cbl, gab, grb, p130Cas, and shc, as well as itam-containing proteins and nonreceptor tyrosine kinase adapters of the src and syk families, delimit and integrate signals of multiple receptors to bring about specific outcomes.  相似文献

p130Cas/breast cancer anti-oestrogen resistance 1 (BCAR1) is a member of the Cas (Crk-associated substrate) family of adaptor proteins, which have emerged as key signalling nodes capable of interactions with multiple proteins, with important regulatory roles in normal and pathological cell function. The Cas family of proteins is characterised by the presence of multiple conserved motifs for protein–protein interactions, and by extensive tyrosine and serine phosphorylations. Recent studies show that p130Cas contributes to migration, cell cycle control and apoptosis. p130Cas is essential during early embryogenesis, with a critical role in cardiovascular development. Furthermore, p130Cas has been reported to be involved in the development and progression of several human cancers. p130Cas is able to perform roles in multiple processes due to its capacity to regulate a diverse array of signalling pathways, transducing signals from growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases, non-receptor tyrosine kinases, and integrins. In this review we summarise the current understanding of the structure, function, and regulation of p130Cas, and discuss the importance of p130Cas in both physiological and pathophysiological settings, with a focus on the cardiovascular system and cancer.  相似文献

The initial event in the neuronal differentiation of PC12 cells is the binding of the neurotrophin nerve growth factor (NGF) to the Trk receptor. This interaction stimulates the intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity of TRk, initiating a signalling cascade involving the phosphorylation of intracellular proteins on tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues. These signals are then in turn propagated to other messengers, ultimately leading to differentiation, neurotrophin-dependent survival and the loss of proliferative capacity. To transmit NGF signals, NGF-activated Trk rapidly associated with the cytoplasmic proteins, SHC, PI-3 kinase, and PLC-γ1. These proteins are involved in stimulating the formation of various second messenger molecules and activating the Ras signal transduction pathway. Studies with Trk mutants indicate that the acivation of the Ras pathway is necessary for complete differentiation of PC12-derived cells and for the maintenance of the differentiated phenotype. Trk also induces the tyrosine phosphorylation of SNT, a specific target of neurotrophic factor activity in neuronal cells. This review will discuss the potential roles of Trk and the proteins of the Trk signalling pathways in NGF function, and summarize our attempts to understand the mechanisms used by Trk to generate dthe many phenotypic responses of PC12 cells to NGF. 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

c-Abl is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase which is localized both in the nucleus and cytoplasm, and is involved in the regulation of cell growth, survival and morphogenesis. Although c-Abl nuclear function has been extensively studied, recent data also indicate an important role in cytoplasmic signalling through mitogenic and adhesive receptors. Here, we review the mechanisms by which growth factors promote cytoplasmic c-Abl activation and signalling and its function in the induction of DNA synthesis, changes in cell morphology and receptor endocytosis. The importance of de-regulated c-Abl cytoplasmic signalling in solid tumours is also discussed.  相似文献

This study identifies some early events contributing to the redox regulation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFr) activation and its signalling in NIH3T3 fibroblasts. We demonstrate for the first time that the redox regulation of PDGFr tyrosine autophosphorylation and its signalling are related to NADPH oxidase activity through protein kinase C (PKC) and phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) activation and H2O2 production. This event is also essential for complete PDGF-induced activation of c-Src kinase by Tyr416 phosphorylation, and the involvement of c-Src kinase on H2O2-induced PDGFr tyrosine phosphorylation is demonstrated, suggesting a role of this kinase on the redox regulation of PDGFr activation. Finally, it has been determined that not only PI3K activity, but also PKC activity, are related to NADPH oxidase activation due to PDGF stimulation in NIH3T3 cells, as it occurs in non-phagocyte cells. Therefore, we suggest a redox circuit whereby, upon PDGF stimulation, PKC, PI3K and NADPH oxidase activity contribute to complete c-Src kinase activation, thus promoting maximal phosphorylation and activation of PDGFr tyrosine phosphorylation.  相似文献

Tight junctions (TJs) of the cerebral endothelial cells play a crucial role in the regulation of BBB permeability under physiological, as well as pathological conditions. The regulation of the junctional proteins is under a complex control. In these regulatory processes signalling molecules, some of them localized to the TJ, play an important role. Among the best characterized second messengers which regulate TJ function are the cyclic nucleotides, which, as shown in our experiments, as well, decrease paracellular permeability. Another important signalling molecule involved in TJ regulation is protein kinase C, which may affect differently the formation of TJ and the function of mature TJ. Further signalling molecules known to regulate paracellular permeability are G-proteins, both conventional and small G-proteins, MAP kinases and other protein kinases. Much of our knowledge concerning second messenger regulation of TJ arises fon the study of epithelial cells of different origin, mostly from kidney, therefore the specific regulation of the junctional complex of the BBB still remains to be elucidated.  相似文献
