BackgroundCa2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK) is a pivotal activator of CaMKI, CaMKIV and 5’-AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), controlling Ca2+-dependent intracellular signaling including various neuronal, metabolic and pathophysiological responses. Recently, we demonstrated that CaMKKβ is feedback phosphorylated at Thr144 by the downstream AMPK, resulting in the conversion of CaMKKβ into Ca2+/CaM-dependent enzyme. However, the regulatory phosphorylation of CaMKKβ at Thr144 in intact cells and in vivo remains unclear.MethodsAnti-phosphoThr144 antibody was used to characterize the site-specific phosphorylation of CaMKKβ in immunoprecipitated samples from mouse cerebellum and in transfected mammalian cells that were treated with various agonists and protein kinase inhibitors. CaMKK activity assay and LC-MS/MS analysis were used for biochemical characterization of phosphorylated CaMKKβ.ResultsOur data suggest that the phosphorylation of Thr144 in CaMKKβ is rapidly induced by cAMP/cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) signaling in CaMKKβ-transfected HeLa cells, that is physiologically relevant in mouse cerebellum. We confirmed that the catalytic subunit of PKA was capable of directly phosphorylating CaMKKβ at Thr144 in vitro and in transfected cells. In addition, the basal phosphorylation of CaMKKβ at Thr144 in transfected HeLa cells was suppressed by AMPK inhibitor (compound C). PKA-catalyzed phosphorylation reduced the autonomous activity of CaMKKβ in vitro without significant effect on the Ca2+/CaM-dependent activity, resulting in the conversion of CaMKKβ into Ca2+/CaM-dependent enzyme.ConclusioncAMP/PKA signaling may confer Ca2+-dependency to the CaMKKβ-mediated signaling pathway through direct phosphorylation of Thr144 in intact cells.General significanceOur results suggest a novel cross-talk between cAMP/PKA and Ca2+/CaM/CaMKKβ signaling through regulatory phosphorylation. 相似文献

Background
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2), a member of the Ca?2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase (CaMK) family, functions as an upstream activator of CaMKI, CaMKIV and AMP-activated protein kinase. Thus, CaMKK2 is involved in the regulation of several key physiological and pathophysiological processes. Previous studies have suggested that Ca2+/CaM binding may cause unique conformational changes in the CaMKKs compared with other CaMKs. However, the underlying mechanistic details remain unclear.Methods
In this study, hydrogen-deuterium exchange coupled to mass spectrometry, time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, small-angle x-ray scattering and chemical cross-linking were used to characterize Ca2+/CaM binding-induced structural changes in CaMKK2.Results
Our data suggest that: (i) the CaMKK2 kinase domain interacts with the autoinhibitory region (AID) through the N-terminal lobe of the kinase domain including the RP insert, a segment important for targeting downstream substrate kinases; (ii) Ca2+/CaM binding affects the structure of several regions surrounding the ATP-binding pocket, including the activation segment; (iii) although the CaMKK2:Ca2+/CaM complex shows high conformational flexibility, most of its molecules are rather compact; and (iv) AID-bound Ca2+/CaM transiently interacts with the CaMKK2 kinase domain.Conclusions
Interactions between the CaMKK2 kinase domain and the AID differ from those of other CaMKs. In the absence of Ca2+/CaM binding the autoinhibitory region inhibits CaMKK2 by both blocking access to the RP insert and by affecting the structure of the ATP-binding pocket.General significance
Our results corroborate the hypothesis that Ca2+/CaM binding causes unique conformational changes in the CaMKKs relative to other CaMKs. 相似文献3.
The 5′-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of the cellular energy metabolism and may induce either cell survival or death. We previously reported that in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells stimulation of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) activate AMPK by triggering store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE). However, whether mAChRs may control AMPK activity by regulating additional mechanisms beyond SOCE remains to be investigated. In the present study we examined the effects of mAChRs on AMPK when SOCE was induced by the sarco–endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin. We found that in SH-SY5Y cells depleted of Ca2+ by thapsigargin, the re-addition Ca2+ to the medium stimulated AMPK phosphorylation at Thr172, which is required for full kinase activity. This response occurred through SOCE, as it was blocked by either the SOCE modulator 2-aminoethoxydiphephenyl borate, knockdown of the SOCE molecular component STIM1, or inhibition of Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM)-dependent protein kinase kinase β (CaMKKβ). In thapsigargin-pretreated cells, stimulation of pharmacologically defined M3 mAChRs potentiated SOCE-induced AMPK activation. This potentiation did not involve an increased Ca2+ influx, but was associated with CaM mobilization from membrane to cytosol, increased CaM/CaMKKβ interaction, and enhanced CaMKK stimulation by thapsigargin-induced SOCE. In thapsigargin-pretreated cells Ca2+ re-addition stimulated glucose uptake and increased the membrane expression of the glucose transporter GLUT1. Both responses were significantly potentiated by mAChRs. These data indicate that in human neuroblastoma cells mAChRs up-regulate AMPK and the downstream glucose uptake by triggering not only SOCE but also CaM translocation and enhanced formation of active CaM/CaMKKβ complexes. 相似文献

CaM kinase II-dependent activation of tyrosine kinases and ERK1/2 in vascular smooth muscle 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In vascular smooth muscle (VSM) and manyother cells, G protein receptor-coupled activation of mitogen-activatedprotein kinases has been linked, in part, to increases in freeintracellular Ca2+. Previously, we demonstrated thationomycin-, angiotensin II-, and thrombin-induced activation ofextracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 in VSM cells wasattenuated by pretreatment with KN-93, a selective inhibitor of themultifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase(CaM kinase II). In the present study, we show that theCa2+-dependent pathway leading to activation of ERK1/2 ispreceded by nonreceptor proline-rich tyrosine kinase (PYK2) activation and epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor tyrosine phosphorylation andis attenuated by inhibitors of src family kinases or the EGF receptor tyrosine kinase. Furthermore, we demonstrate that pretreatment with KN-93 or a CaM kinase II inhibitor peptide inhibitsCa2+-dependent PYK2 activation and EGF receptor tyrosinephosphorylation in response to ionomycin, ATP, and platelet-derivedgrowth factor but has no effect on phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate- orEGF-induced responses. The results implicate CaM kinase II as anintermediate in the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent activation of PYK2. 相似文献

Overexpression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in certain cancers is well established. There is growing evidence that epidermal growth factor (EGF) activates Akt/protein kinase B (PKB) in a phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase (PI3K)-dependent manner, but it is not yet clear which Akt isoforms are involved in this signal transduction pathway. We investigated the functional regulation of three Akt isoforms, Akt1/PKBalpha, Akt2/PKBbeta, and Akt3/PKBgamma, in esophageal cancer cells where EGFR is frequently overexpressed. Upon EGF simulation, phosphorylation of Akt1 at the Ser-473 residue was remarkably induced. This result was corroborated by in vitro Akt kinase assays using glycogen synthase kinase 3beta as the substrate. PI3K inhibitors, wortmannin or LY294002, significantly blocked the Akt kinase activity induced by EGF. Akt2 activity was evaluated by electrophoretic mobility shift assays. Robust activation of Akt2 by EGF was observed in some cell lines in a PI3K-dependent manner. EGF-induced Akt3 activation was demonstrated by Ser-472 phosphorylation of Akt3 but in a restrictive fashion. In aggregate, EGF-mediated activation of Akt isoforms is overlapping and distinctive. The mechanism by which EGFR recruits the PI3K/Akt pathway was in part differentially regulated at the level of Ras but independent of heterodimerization of EGFR with either ErbB2 or ErbB3 based upon functional dissection of pathways in esophageal cancer cell lines. 相似文献

The calcium-calmodulin–dependent protein kinase kinase-2 (CaMKK2) is a key regulator of cellular and whole-body energy metabolism. It is known to be activated by increases in intracellular Ca2+, but the mechanisms by which it is inactivated are less clear. CaMKK2 inhibition protects against prostate cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, and metabolic derangements induced by a high-fat diet; therefore, elucidating the intracellular mechanisms that inactivate CaMKK2 has important therapeutic implications. Here we show that stimulation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) signaling in cells inactivates CaMKK2 by phosphorylation of three conserved serine residues. PKA-dependent phosphorylation of Ser495 directly impairs calcium-calmodulin activation, whereas phosphorylation of Ser100 and Ser511 mediate recruitment of 14-3-3 adaptor proteins that hold CaMKK2 in the inactivated state by preventing dephosphorylation of phospho-Ser495. We also report the crystal structure of 14-3-3ζ bound to a synthetic diphosphorylated peptide that reveals how the canonical (Ser511) and noncanonical (Ser100) 14-3-3 consensus sites on CaMKK2 cooperate to bind 14-3-3 proteins. Our findings provide detailed molecular insights into how cAMP-PKA signaling inactivates CaMKK2 and reveals a pathway to inhibit CaMKK2 with potential for treating human diseases. 相似文献

Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase (CaMKK) phosphorylates and activates specific downstream protein kinases including CaMKI, CaMKIV and 5′-AMP-activated protein kinase. In order to examine the variety of CaMKK-mediated signaling pathways, we searched for novel CaMKK substrate(s) using N6-(1-methylbutyl)-ATP and genetically engineered CaMKKα mutant, CaMKKα (Phe230Gly), that was capable of utilizing this ATP analogue as a phosphate donor. Incubation of rat brain extracts with recombinant CaMKKα (Phe230Gly), but not with wild-type kinase, in the presence of N6-(1-methylbutyl)-ATP and Ca2+/CaM, induced significant threonine phosphorylation of a 50 kDa protein as well as CaMKI phosphorylation at Thr177. The 50 kDa CaMKK substrate was partially purified by using serial column chromatography, and was identified as Syndapin I by LC-MS/MS analysis. We confirmed that recombinant Syndapin I was phosphorylated by CaMKKα and β isoforms at Thr355in vitro. Phosphorylation of HA-Syndapin I at Thr355 in transfected HeLa cells was significantly induced by co-expression of constitutively active mutants of CaMKK isoforms. This is the first report that CaMKK is capable of phosphorylating a non-kinase substrate suggesting the possibility of CaMKK-mediated novel Ca2+-signaling pathways that are independent of downstream protein kinases. 相似文献

Multifunctional Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaM kinase) is a prominent mediator of neurotransmitters which elevate Ca2+. It coordinates cellular responses to external stimuli by phosphorylating proteins involved in neurotransmitter synthesis, neurotransmitter release, carbohydrate metabolism, ion flux and neuronal plasticity. Structure/function studies of CaM kinase have provided insights into how it decodes Ca2+ signals. The kinase is kept relatively inactive in its basal state by the presence of an autoinhibitory domain. Binding of Ca2+/calmodulin eliminates this inhibitory constraint and allows the kinase to phosphorylate its substrates, as well as itself. This autophosphorylation significantly slows dissociation of calmodulin, thereby trapping calmodulin even when Ca2+ levels are subthreshold. The kinase may respond particularly wel to multiple Ca2+ spikes since trapping may enable a spike frequency-dependent recruitment of calmodulin with each successive Ca2+ spike leading to increased activation of the kinase. Once calmodulin dissociates, CaM kinase remains partially active until it is dephosphorylated, providing for an additional period in which its response to brief Ca2+ transients is potentiated.Special issue dedicated to Dr. Paul Greengard. 相似文献

Src family non-receptor tyrosine kinases play a prominent role in multiple cellular processes, including: cell proliferation, differentiation, cell survival, stress response, and cell adhesion and migration, among others. And when deregulated by mutations, overexpression, and/or the arrival of faulty incoming signals, its hyperactivity contributes to the development of hematological and solid tumors. c-Src is a prototypical member of this family of kinases, which is highly regulated by a set of phosphorylation events. Other factor contributing to the regulation of Src activity appears to be mediated by the Ca2+ signal generated in cells by different effectors, where the Ca2+-receptor protein calmodulin (CaM) plays a key role. In this report we demonstrate that CaM directly interacts with Src in both Ca2+-dependent and Ca2+-independent manners in vitro and in living cells, and that the CaM antagonist N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) inhibits the activation of this kinase induced by the upstream activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), in human carcinoma epidermoide A431 cells, and by hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress, in both A431 cells and human breast adenocarcinoma SK-BR-3 cells. Furthermore, we show that the Ca2+/CaM complex strongly activates the auto-phosphorylation and tyrosine kinase activity of c-Src toward exogenous substrates, but most relevantly and for the first time, we demonstrate that Ca2+-free CaM (apo-CaM) exerts a far higher activatory action on Src auto-phosphorylation and kinase activity toward exogenous substrates than the one exerted by the Ca2+/CaM complex. This suggests that a transient increase in the cytosolic concentration of free Ca2+ is not an absolute requirement for CaM-mediated activation of Src in living cells, and that a direct regulation of Src by apo-CaM could be inferred. 相似文献

Stimulation of human colonic epithelial T84 cells with the muscarinic receptor agonist carbachol, a stable analog of acetylcholine, induced Akt, p70S6K1 and ERK activation. Treatment of T84 cells with the selective inhibitor of EGF receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase AG1478 abrogated Akt phosphorylation on Ser473 induced by either carbachol or EGF, indicating that carbachol-induced Akt activation is mediated through EGFR transactivation. Surprisingly, AG1478 did not suppress p70S6K1 phosphorylation on Thr389 in response to carbachol, indicating the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) stimulation induces p70S6K1 activation, at least in part, via an Akt-independent pathway. In contrast, treatment with the selective MEK inhibitor U0126 (but not with the inactive analog U0124) inhibited carbachol-induced p70S6K1 activation, indicating that the MEK/ERK/RSK pathway plays a critical role in p70S6K1 activation in GPCR-stimulated T84 cells. These findings imply that GPCR activation induces p70S6K1 via ERK rather than through the canonical PI 3-kinase/Akt/TSC/mTORC1 pathway in T84 colon carcinoma cells. 相似文献

The translocation of Akt, a serine/threonine kinase, to the plasma membrane is a critical step in the Akt activation pathway. It is established that membrane binding of Akt is mediated by direct interactions between its pleckstrin homology domain (PHD) and phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3). There is now evidence that Akt activation in many breast cancer cells is also modulated by the calcium-binding protein, calmodulin (CaM). Upon EGF stimulation of breast cancer cells, CaM co-localizes with Akt at the plasma membrane to enhance activation. However, the molecular details of Akt(PHD) interaction with CaM are not known. In this study, we employed NMR, biochemical, and biophysical techniques to characterize CaM binding to Akt(PHD). Our data show that CaM forms a tight complex with the PHD of Akt (dissociation constant = 100 nm). The interaction between CaM and Akt(PHD) is enthalpically driven, and the affinity is greatly dependent on salt concentration, indicating that electrostatic interactions are important for binding. The CaM-binding interface in Akt(PHD) was mapped to two loops adjacent to the PI(3,4,5)P3 binding site, which represents a rare CaM-binding motif and suggests a synergistic relationship between CaM and PI(3,4,5)P3 upon Akt activation. Elucidation of the mechanism by which Akt interacts with CaM will help in understanding the activation mechanism, which may provide insights for new potential targets to control the pathophysiological processes of cell survival. 相似文献

Adiponectin functions as a promoter of saliva secretion in rat submandibular gland via activation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and increased paracellular permeability. Ca2+ mobilization is the primary signal for fluid secretion in salivary acinar cells. However, whether intracellular Ca2+ mobilization is involved in adiponectin-induced salivary secretion is unknown. Here, we found that full-length adiponectin (fAd) increased intracellular Ca2+ and saliva secretion in submandibular glands. Pre-perfusion with ethylene glycol-bis (2-aminoethylether)-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid (EGTA) combined with thapsigargin (TG), an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase inhibitor, abolished fAd-induced salivary secretion, AMPK phosphorylation, and enlarged tight junction (TJ) width. Furthermore, in cultured SMG-C6 cells, co-pretreatment with EGTA and TG suppressed fAd-decreased transepithelial electrical resistance and increased 4-kDa FITC-dextran flux responses. Moreover, fAd increased phosphorylation of calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMKKβ), a major kinase that is activated by elevated levels of intracellular Ca2+, but not liver kinase B1 phosphorylation. Pre-perfusion of the isolated gland with STO-609, an inhibitor of CaMKKβ, abolished fAd-induced salivary secretion, AMPK activation, and enlarged TJ width. CaMKKβ shRNA suppressed, whereas CaMKKβ re-expression rescued fAd-increased paracellular permeability. Taken together, these results indicate that adiponectin induced Ca2+ modulation in rat submandibular gland acinar cells. Ca2+-CaMKKβ pathway is required for adiponectin-induced secretion through mediating AMPK activation and increase in paracellular permeability in rat submandibular glands. 相似文献

We studied the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway modulation and its involvement in the stimulation of ROS 17/2.8 osteoblast-like cell proliferation by extracellular ATP. A dose- and time-dependent increase in Akt-Ser 473 phosphorylation (p-Akt) was observed. p-Akt was increased by ATPγS and UTP, but not by ADPβS. Akt activation was abolished by PI3K inhibitors and reduced by inhibitors of PI-PLC, Src, calmodulin (CaM) but not of CaMK. p-Akt was diminished by cell incubation in a Ca2+-free medium but not by the use of L-type calcium channel blockers. The rise in intracellular Ca2+ induced by ATP was potentiated in the presence of Ro318220, a PKC inhibitor, and attenuated by the TPA, a known activator of PKC. ATP-dependent p-Akt was diminished by TPA and augmented by Ro318220 treatment in a Ca2+-containing but not in a Ca2+-free medium. ATP stimulated the proliferation of both ROS 17/2.8 cells and rat osteoblasts through PI3K/Akt. In the primary osteoblasts, ATP induces alkaline phosphatase activity via PI3K, suggesting that the nucleotide promotes osteoblast differentiation. These results suggest that ATP stimulates osteoblast proliferation through PI-PLC linked-P2Y2 receptors and PI3K/Akt pathway activation involving Ca2+, CaM and Src. PKC seems to regulate Akt activation through Src and the Ca2+ influx/CaM pathway. 相似文献

The sperm acrosome reaction occurs after the binding of the capacitated sperm to the egg zona pellucida. This study describes a novel mode of regulation of the sperm epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) under physiological conditions and its relevance to the acrosome reaction. Ouabain, a known Na/K ATPase blocker is present in the blood and in the female reproductive tract. We show here that physiological concentrations (nM) of ouabain enhance phosphorylation of EGFR on tyr-845, stimulate Ca2+ influx and induce the acrosome reaction in sperm. These effects could be seen only in the presence of very low concentrations of EGF (0.1 ng/ml or 0.016 nM) added together with nano-molar ouabain. Phosphorylation, Ca2+ influx, and the acrosome reaction are inhibited by an EGFR blocker, suggesting that trans-activation of the EGFR is involved. Moreover, our data revealed that protein kinase A and the family of tyrosine kinase, SRC, shown before to be involved in EGFR activation in sperm, mediate the acrosome reaction induced by ouabain. Ouabain alone (without EGF) at relatively high concentration (10 µM) could enhance EGFR phosphorylation, Ca2+ influx and acrosome reaction, and these processes were inhibited by EGFR blockers. Moreover, we show here that PKA and SRC family are involved in the activation of EGFR by 10 µM ouabain, further demonstrating that ouabain induces the acrosome reaction by a mechanism mediated by the trans-activation of EGFR. In conclusion, this study describes an interesting regulatory path of EGFR by physiological concentrations of ouabain and EGF found in the female reproductive tract. Neither of these compounds can activate the EGFR alone at such low physiological levels; however, when both are present, the interaction of ouabain with the Na/K ATPase leads to the priming of the EGFR, which undergoes its full activation by EGF. 相似文献

Background
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) is a member of the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase (CaMK) family involved in adiposity regulation, glucose homeostasis and cancer. This upstream activator of CaMKI, CaMKIV and AMP-activated protein kinase is inhibited by phosphorylation, which also triggers an association with the scaffolding protein 14-3-3. However, the role of 14-3-3 in the regulation of CaMKK2 remains unknown.Methods
The interaction between phosphorylated CaMKK2 and the 14-3-3γ protein, as well as the architecture of their complex, were studied using enzyme activity measurements, small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS), time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and protein crystallography.Results
Our data suggest that the 14-3-3 protein binding does not inhibit the catalytic activity of phosphorylated CaMKK2 but rather slows down its dephosphorylation. Structural analysis indicated that the complex is flexible and that CaMKK2 is located outside the phosphopeptide-binding central channel of the 14-3-3γ dimer. Furthermore, 14-3-3γ appears to interact with and affect the structure of several regions of CaMKK2 outside the 14-3-3 binding motifs. In addition, the structural basis of interactions between 14‐3-3 and the 14-3-3 binding motifs of CaMKK2 were elucidated by determining the crystal structures of phosphopeptides containing these motifs bound to 14-3-3.Conclusions
14-3-3γ protein directly interacts with the kinase domain of CaMKK2 and the region containing the inhibitory phosphorylation site Thr145 within the N-terminal extension.General significance
Our results suggested that CaMKK isoforms differ in their 14-3-3-mediated regulations and that the interaction between 14-3-3 protein and the N-terminal 14-3-3-binding motif of CaMKK2 might be stabilized by small-molecule compounds. 相似文献18.

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding proteins-2 (IGFBP-2) function coordinately to stimulate osteoblast differentiation. Induction of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is required for differentiation and is stimulated by these two factors. These studies were undertaken to determine how these two peptides lead to activation of AMPK. Enzymatic inhibitors and small interfering RNA were utilized to attenuate calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2) activity in osteoblasts, and both manipulations resulted in failure to activate AMPK, thereby resulting in inhibition of osteoblast differentiation. IGFBP-2 and IGF-I stimulated an increase in CaMKK2, and inhibition of IGFBP-2 binding its receptor resulted in failure to induce CaMKK2 and AMPK activation. Injection of a peptide that contained the IGFBP-2 receptor-binding domain into IGFBP-2−/− mice activated CaMKK2 and injection of a CaMKK2 inhibitor into normal mice inhibited both CamKK2 and AMPK activation in osteoblasts. We conclude that induction of CaMKK2 by IGFBP-2 and IGF-I in osteoblasts is an important signaling event that occurs early in differentiation and is responsible for activation of AMPK, which is required for optimal osteoblast differentiation. 相似文献

Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is secreted from hypothalamic GnRH neurons and stimulates a GnRH receptor in gonadotroph cells and GnRH neurons. The GnRH receptor belongs to the G-protein-coupled receptors, and stimulation of the GnRH receptor activates extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK). We reported previously that the δ2 isoform of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaM kinase IIδ2) was involved in GnRH-induced ERK activation in cultured GnRH neurons (GT1–7 cells). Recently, we found that GnRH treatment of GT1–7 cells activated proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2), and Pyk2 was involved in ERK activation. In the current study, we examined the possibility that CaM kinase IIδ2 might activate Pyk2. Knockdown of CaM kinase IIδ2 and KN93, an inhibitor of CaM kinases, inhibited the GnRH-induced activation of Pyk2. In the case of cultured gonadotroph cells (αT3-1 cells), knockdown of CaM kinase IIβ’e inhibited GnRH-induced Pyk2 activation. In addition, our inhibitor studies indicated that Pyk2 and CaM kinase II were involved in the GnRH-induced shedding of proHB-EGF in GT1–7 cells. These results suggested that CaM kinase II activated the ERK pathway through Pyk2 activation and HB-EGF production in response to GnRH. 相似文献

The calcium sensing receptor (CaR) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is activated by extracellular calcium ([Ca2+]o). In MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, we previously reported that treatment with [Ca2+]o for 24 h leads to an over-expression of the Transient Receptor Potential Canonical 1 (TRPC1) cation channel and cell proliferation. Both involve the extracellular signal-regulated Kinases 1 & 2 (ERK1/2). MCF-7 also expressed epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) which is involved in cell proliferation through ERK1/2. Therefore, we investigated the cross-talk between CaR and EGFR in mediating ERK1/2 phosphorylation, TRPC1 over-expression and cell proliferation. Our data show that both high [Ca2+]o and EGF phosphorylate ERK1/2. Furthermore, inhibition of EGFR kinase and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) reduced the overall effects mediated by [Ca2+]o such as activation of ERK1/2, expression of TRPC1 and cell proliferation. They indicate the important role of the CaR-EGFR-ERK axis in transmitting mitogenic signals generated by high [Ca2+]o in MCF-7 cells. 相似文献
