PC12 cells contain at least three immunologically distinct phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes, PLC-beta, PLC-gamma, and PLC-delta. Treatment of PC12 cells with nerve growth factor (NGF) leads to an increase in the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma, but not of PLC-beta or PLC-delta. This increase can be seen in as little as 1 minute. The increased phosphorylation occurs on both serine and tyrosine residues, with the major increase being in the former. This result suggests the possibility that the NGF-dependent increase in phosphoinositide hydrolysis in PC12 cells is due to selective phosphorylation of PLC-gamma by serine and tyrosine protein kinases associated with the NGF receptor.  相似文献

Apoptosis is a cell suicide mechanism that requires the activation of cellular death proteases for its induction. We examined whether the progress of apoptosis involves cleavage of phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1), which plays a pivotal role in mitogenic signaling pathway. Pretreatment of T leukemic Molt-4 cells with PLC inhibitors such as U-73122 or ET-18-OCH(3) potentiated etoposide-induced apoptosis in these cells. PLC-gamma1 was fragmented when Molt-4 cells were treated with several apoptotic stimuli such as etoposide, ceramides, and tumor necrosis factor alpha. Cleavage of PLC-gamma1 was blocked by overexpression of Bcl-2 and by specific inhibitors of caspases such as Z-DEVD-CH(2)F and YVAD-cmk. Purified caspase-3 and caspase-7, group II caspases, cleaved PLC-gamma1 in vitro and generated a cleavage product of the same size as that observed in vivo, suggesting that PLC-gamma1 is cleaved by group II caspases in vivo. From point mutagenesis studies, Ala-Glu-Pro-Asp(770) was identified to be a cleavage site within PLC-gamma1. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) -induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma1 resulted in resistance to cleavage by caspase-3 in vitro. Furthermore, cleaved PLC-gamma1 could not be tyrosine-phosphorylated by EGFR in vitro. In addition, tyrosine-phosphorylated PLC-gamma1 was not significantly cleaved during etoposide-induced apoptosis in Molt-4 cells. This suggests that the growth factor-induced tyrosine phosphorylation may suppress apoptosis-induced fragmentation of PLC-gamma1. We provide evidence for the biochemical relationship between PLC-gamma1-mediated signal pathway and apoptotic signal pathway, indicating that the defect of PLC-gamma1-mediated signaling pathway can facilitate an apoptotic progression.  相似文献

The B cell AgR regulates two signal transduction pathways: the tyrosine kinase and the phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) pathways. Stimulation of B cells with Ag or anti-Ig antibody results in a rapid increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple substrates. The AgR also mediates the activation of phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1) thus producing the second messengers, inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol. Although the detailed relationship between these two signaling pathways remains unclear, it has recently become apparent that PLC-gamma 1 might be a target for the AgR-associated protein tyrosine kinase. To address the question of whether tyrosine kinase activity is essential for B cell activation, we studied early biochemical changes and later cellular events induced by ligation of the purinoceptor (P2R). Ligation of ATP to its receptor on B cells has been previously shown to elicit increases in cytosolic free Ca2+ and inositol phosphate production as well as induction of c-fos mRNA expression and increased expression of IL-2 and transferrin receptors. We show here that ATP in a wide range of concentrations did not increase protein tyrosine kinase activity. In contrast with the AgR, P2R did not mediate tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1, thus suggesting that it may use another phosphoinositide-specific PLC that does not require phosphorylation on tyrosine residues for its activation. The results were supported by experiments with a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor, tyrphostin AG-126. Preincubation with this inhibitor blocked AgR but not P2R-mediated inositol phosphate production, cytosolic free Ca2+ changes, and IL-2 and transferrin receptor expression. The results indicate that the PtdIns pathway may be sufficient to induce activation of B cells and that the tyrosine phosphorylation pathway is not necessary for nonantigenic B cell activation.  相似文献

In contrast to conventional signaling by growth factors that requires their continual presence, a 1-min pulse of nerve growth factor (NGF) is sufficient to induce electrical excitability in PC12 cells due to induction of the peripheral nerve type 1 (PN1) sodium channel gene. We have investigated the mechanism for this triggered signaling pathway by NGF in PC12 cells. Mutation of TrkA at key autophosphorylation sites indicates an essential role for the phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) binding site, but not the Shc binding site, for NGF-triggered induction of PN1. In concordance with results with Trk mutants, drug-mediated inhibition of PLC-gamma activity also blocks PN1 induction by NGF. Examination of the kinetics of TrkA autophosphorylation indicates that triggered signaling does not result from sustained activation and autophosphorylation of the TrkA receptor kinase, whose phosphorylation state declines rapidly after NGF removal. Rather, TrkA triggers an unexpectedly prolonged phosphorylation and activation of PLC-gamma signaling that is sustained for up to 2 h. Prevention of the elevation of intracellular Ca2+ levels using BAPTA-AM results in a block of PN1 induction by NGF. Sustained signaling by PLC-gamma provides a means for differential neuronal gene induction after transient exposure to NGF.  相似文献

Recognition of class I MHC molecules on target cells by killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIRs) blocks natural cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity of NK cells and CD3/TCR dependent cytotoxicity of T cells. The inhibitory effect of KIR ligation requires phosphorylation of the cytoplasmic tail of KIR and subsequent recruitment of an SH2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase, SHP-1. To better understand the molecular mechanism of the KIR-mediated inhibitory signal transduction, we developed an in vitro assay system using a purified His-tag fusion protein of KIR cytoplasmic tail (His-CytKIR) and Jurkat T cell lysates. We identified a target molecule of SHP-1 by comparing the phosphorylation of major cellular substrates following in vitro phosphorylation of Jurkat cell lysates in the presence and absence of the His-CytKIR in this cell-free model system. The His-CytKIR was tyrosine phosphorylated by Lck in vitro, and the phosphorylated His-CytKIR recruited SHP-1. Interestingly, we observed that among major substrates phosphorylated in vitro, PLC-gamma exhibited a dramatic decrease in phosphorylation when the His-CytKIR was mixed with Jurkat T cell lysates. However, PLC-gamma exhibited no decrease in phosphorylation when SHP-1 or Lck was depleted or deficient in this reaction mixture, suggesting that the SHP-1 recruited by the phosphorylated His-CytKIR directly mediate the dephosphorylation of PLC-gamma. The cell-free model system could be used to reveal the detailed molecular interactions in the KIR-mediated signal transduction.  相似文献

The molecular mechanism of erythroid differentiation has been still ill-defined. In this study, we introduced a human interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) beta chain cDNA into ELM-I-1 cells which differentiated into hemoglobin-positive cells in the presence of erythropoietin (Epo), and established the transformant which expressed IL-2R beta chain. In this transformant, we revealed that IL-2 induced erythroid differentiation and the same pattern of tyrosine phosphorylation as Epo. These data suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation is involved in signal transduction pathway of erythroid differentiation. It is also implicated that the Epo and IL-2 receptor system share a common signal transduction pathway.  相似文献

The cellular actions of nerve growth factor (NGF) involve changes in protein phosphorylation, initiated by the binding and subsequent activation of its tyrosine kinase receptor, the trk protooncogene (pp140c-trk). Upon exposure to NGF, a 38-kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated protein (pp38) is identified in both PC-12 pheochromocytoma cells and NIH3T3 cells transfected with the full-length human pp140c-trk cDNA (3T3-c-trk) that is specifically coimmunoprecipitated with pp140c-trk or phosphatidylinositol-phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1. In both PC-12 and 3T3-c-trk cells, NGF rapidly stimulates the association of pp140c-trk and pp38 with a fusion protein containing the src homology (SH) domains of PLC gamma 1. This phosphorylation and subsequent association are specific for NGF, since epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, and insulin do not stimulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of these proteins or their association with the PLC gamma 1 SH domains, although the receptors for these growth factors do undergo tyrosine phosphorylation and association with the PLC-gamma 1 fusion protein under these conditions. Furthermore, the NGF-dependent pp38-SH binding is specific for the SH2 domains of PLC-gamma 1, since the phosphoprotein does not bind to fusion proteins containing SH domains of ras GTPase-activating protein or the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase. Both amino- and carboxyl-terminal SH2 domains of PLC-gamma 1 are necessary for the association of pp38 with PLC-gamma 1, although each SH2 domain is sufficient for the association of pp140c-trk with PLC-gamma 1. In both PC-12 and 3T3-c-trk cells, the phosphorylation and association of pp38 with PLC gamma 1 is rapid, occurring maximally at 1 min and declining thereafter. Moreover, this effect of NGF is dose-dependent over a physiological concentration of the growth factor. The specificity and rapidity of pp38 phosphorylation and its association with PLC-gamma 1 suggest that it may be an important component in signal transduction for NGF.  相似文献

The mechanisms by which phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and cAMP attenuate the hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PtdIns 4,5-P2) induced by ligation of the T-cell antigen receptor complex (TCR) was studied in the human Jurkat T-cell line. It has previously been shown that stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3, components of the TCR, elicits a rapid and transient phosphorylation of phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1, the predominant PLC isozyme in Jurkat cells, at multiple tyrosine residues and that such tyrosine phosphorylation leads to activation of PLC-gamma 1. Prior incubation of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin, which increases intracellular cAMP concentrations, prevented tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 as well as the hydrolysis of PtdIns 4,5-P2 induced by ligation of CD3. Dose-response curves of PMA and of forskolin for the inhibition of PLC-gamma 1 tyrosine phosphorylation and of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis were similar. These results suggest that the inhibition of PtdIns 4,5-P2 hydrolysis by PMA and cAMP is attributable to reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1. Treatment of Jurkat cells with PMA or forskolin stimulated the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248. PMA treatment also elicited the phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at an unidentified serine site. Phosphopeptide map analysis indicated that the sites of PLC-gamma 1 phosphorylated in Jurkat cells treated with PMA and forskolin are the same as those phosphorylated in vitro by protein kinase C (PKC) and cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), respectively. Stimulation of Jurkat cells with antibodies to CD3 also elicited phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 at serine 1248 and at the unidentified serine site phosphorylated in PLC-gamma 1 from PMA-treated cells. Thus, phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 by PKC or PKA at serine 1248 may modulate the interaction of PLC-gamma 1 with the protein tyrosine kinase or the protein tyrosine phosphatase; this altered interaction may, at least in part, be responsible for the decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma 1 seen in PMA- and forskolin-treated Jurkat cells. Furthermore, in the absence of PMA, activation of PKC by diacylglycerol provides a negative feedback signal responsible for reducing the phosphotyrosine contents of PLC-gamma 1.  相似文献

Two subtypes of angiotensin II receptors have been characterised so far: AT1 and AT2. In PC12W pheochromocytoma cells, only AT2 receptors have been found (acting probably through G1 proteins or via G protein-independent mechanism). Here, dynamic changes in phosphorylation pattern in PC12W cells upon induction of angiotensin II and under influence of redox agents were investigated. PC12W pheochromocytoma cell line was preincubated with angiotensin II, then incubated with redox agents. After lysis the cells were subjected to Western-Blotting technique with antiphosphotyrosine and anti-ERK2 antibodies, as well as phosphotyrosine phosphatases and kinases activity was measured. Angiotensin II through its AT2 receptor induced dephosphorylation of tyrosines of the proteins in the range of 60 to 150 kD in PC12W cells. The obtained phosphorylation pattern suggests that AT2 receptors may act comparably to leukocyte CD45 receptor pathway. Treatment of PC12W cells with H2O2 resulted in significant decrease in phosphotyrosine phosphatases activity. It could be assumed that signal transduction based on protein phosphorylation might be controlled by cellular redox mechanisms.  相似文献

Steel factor (SF), the ligand for the proto-oncogene c-kit, acts synergistically with GM-CSF or IL-3 to support the growth of normal human hematopoietic progenitor cells. We examined the effects of SF on GM-CSF or IL-3 induced proliferation of a human factor-dependent cell line, MO7. SF supported MO7 cell proliferation as well as IL-3 or GM-CSF alone, and its addition dramatically enhanced (three- to sixfold) maximal GM-CSF or IL-3 stimulated proliferation. SF did not increase the number or affinity of cell surface GM-CSF receptors. We examined several early events of signal transduction in an effort to elucidate the biochemical mechanisms of synergy of these factors. Since each of these three cytokines is believed to function in part through activation of a tyrosine kinase, we examined their effects on cellular phosphotyrosine containing proteins. Each cytokine induced rapid, transient, and concentration dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of substrates. For GM-CSF and IL-3, these phosphoproteins were indistinguishable (150, 125, 106, 93, 80, 79, 73, 44, 42, and 36 kDa), while SF induced major or minor tyrosine phosphorylation of 205, 140-150, 116, 106, 94, 90, 80, 79, 73, 44, 42, 39, 36, 32 kDa phosphoproteins. Two other signal transduction intermediates known to be phosphorylated and activated by GM-CSF and IL-3, the 70-75 kDa Raf-1 kinase, and p42 mitogen-activated protein kinase-2 (MAPK), were also phosphorylated by SF. Combinations of GM-CSF or IL-3 with SF did not further increase the phosphorylation of Raf-1 or p42 MAPK when compared to any of the factors alone. In contrast SF, but not GM-CSF or IL-3, induced tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma). These results indicate that SF and GM-CSF/IL-3 have partially overlapping effects on early signal transducing events, as well as striking differences, such as tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma. This cell line should provide a useful model system to investigate the complicated process of hematopoietic growth factor synergy.  相似文献

Phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1) hydrolyzes phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate to the second messengers inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate and diacylglycerol (DAG). PLC-gamma1 is implicated in a variety of cellular signalings and processes including mitogenesis and calcium entry. However, numerous studies demonstrate that the lipase activity is not required for PLC-gamma1 to mediate these events. Here, we report that the phospholipase activity of PLC-gamma1 plays an essential role in nerve growth factor (NGF)-triggered Raf/MEK/MAPK pathway activation in PC12 cells. Employing PC12 cells stably transfected with an inducible form of wild-type PLC-gamma1 or lipase inactive PLC-gamma1 with histidine 335 mutated into glutamine in the catalytic domain, we show that NGF provokes robust activation of MAP kinase in wild-type but not in lipase inactive cells. Both Ras/C-Raf/MEK1 and Rap1/B-Raf/MEK1 pathways are intact in the wild-type cells. By contrast, these signaling cascades are diminished in the mutant cells. Pretreatment with cell permeable DAG analog 1-oleyl-2-acetylglycerol rescues the MAP kinase pathway activation in the mutant cells. These observations indicate that the lipase activity of PLC-gamma1 mediates NGF-regulated MAPK signaling upstream of Ras/Rap1 activation probably through second messenger DAG-activated Ras and Rap-GEFs.  相似文献

Upregulation of immunoglobulin D-specific receptors (IgD-R) on CD4+ T cells may facilitate their interaction with specific carbohydrate moieties uniquely associated with membrane IgD on B cells. Previous studies have shown that upregulation of IgD-R facilitates cognate T-B cell interactions by mediating bidirectional signaling resulting in increased antibody responses and clonal expansion of antigen-specific T cells. Murine T hybridoma cells, 7C5, constitutively express IgD-R, as has been confirmed by staining with biotinylated IgD. Earlier studies have shown that inhibitors of protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) completely prevented upregulation of IgD-R in response to oligomeric IgD, suggesting that cross-linking of IgD-R may induce signal transduction and functional consequences through one or more PTK activation pathways, leading to upregulation of IgD-R. In the present study we show that cross-linking of IgD-R by oligomeric IgD indeed results in (a) T cell activation as seen by tyrosine phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins, (b) tyrosine phosphorylation of p56 Lck and PLC-gamma in 7C5 T hybridoma cells, and (c) phosphorylation of an approximately 29-kDa band that exhibits strong affinity for IgD. We analyzed tyrosine phosphorylation of p56 Lck and PLC-gamma in BALB/c splenic T cells that were exposed to oligomeric IgD both in vivo and in vitro. In vitro cross-linking as well as in vivo followed by in vitro cross-linking of IgD-R resulted in enhanced phosphorylation of p56 Lck and moderate tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma. These results suggest that interactions between IgD-R and IgD mediate signal transduction and support our previous findings that IgD-R+ T cells enhance cognate T cell-B cell interactions and antibody production.  相似文献

Treatment of rat hepatocytes with epidermal growth factor (EGF) produced an enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF receptor and phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma) in conjunction with the mobilization of Ca2+. Approximately 30% of the total PLC-gamma was tyrosine-phosphorylated with a maximum being reached after 30 s of incubation with EGF. Pretreatment of the rats with pertussis toxin prior to isolation of the hepatocytes blocked EGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PLC-gamma and Ca2+ mobilization but had no effect on autophosphorylation of the EGF receptor or Ca2+ responses elicited by angiotensin II or phenylephrine. Under these conditions Gi protein alpha subunits were fully ADP-ribosylated. A 41-kDa Gi protein alpha subunit was found to be present in the anti-PLC-gamma immune complex after EGF stimulation as shown by in vitro ADP-ribosylation using [32P]NAD+ and activated pertussis toxin. The kinetics of association between PLC-gamma with Gi alpha protein reached a maximum after 1 min of incubation with EGF. Antibodies specific for the EGF receptor also coimmunoprecipitated a Gi protein alpha subunit. Treatment of hepatocytes with EGF caused first an increase and then a decrease in the amount of Gi protein alpha subunit associated with the EGF receptor. In contrast, studies with cultured rat liver (WB) cells, a cell line in which EGF stimulation of phosphoinositide hydrolysis is not inhibited by pertussis toxin, showed that a stable complex of Gi alpha was not formed with either PLC-gamma or EGF receptor immunoprecipitates. These results indicate that a pertussis toxin-sensitive Gi protein is uniquely involved in the signal transduction pathway mediating EGF-induced activation of PLC-gamma and Ca2+ mobilization in hepatocytes.  相似文献
