Basic fibroblast growth factor is increasingly implicated in cellular growth, differentiation, angiogenesis and oncogenesis. In culture, basic fibroblast growth factor greatly improved the growth rate of bovine brain cortex capillary endothelial cells. Down-regulation of protein kinase C by prolonged treatment with phorbol esters prevented the mitogenic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor on capillary endothelial cells. Furthermore, staurosporine, a potent protein kinase inhibitor, showed strong antiproliferative activity against basic fibroblast growth factor-induced endothelial cell growth. Similarly, the chemotaxis effect of basic fibroblast growth factor on capillary endothelial cells was abolished by down-regulation of protein kinase C or by staurosporine treatment. Therefore, it is suggested that protein kinase C could account for part of the angiogenic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor.  相似文献

Human acidic and basic fibroblast growth factors (aFGF and bFGF) inhibit epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor binding in mouse Swiss 3T3 cells. Scatchard analysis indicates that aFGF and bFGF cause a decrease in the high affinity EGF receptor population, similar to that observed for activators of protein kinase C such as phorbol esters, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and bombesin. However, unlike phorbol esters, aFGF and bFGF inhibit EGF binding in protein kinase C-deficient cells. The time course and dose response of inhibition of EGF binding by both aFGF and bFGF are very similar, with an ID50 of approximately 0.10 ng/ml. In contrast to bombesin but like PDGF, neither aFGF nor bFGF act on the EGF receptor through a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. These results indicate that both acidic and basic FGF depress high affinity EGF binding in Swiss 3T3 cells with similar potency through a protein kinase C/Gi-independent pathway.  相似文献

We have shown that the cultured Sertoli cell from the immature rat contains a fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-like factor. It behaves as a cationic peptide, is a potent competence factor for BALB/c3T3 mouse embryo fibroblasts, and displays a high affinity for heparin. Both bovine basic FGF and Sertoli cell FGF-like factor rapidly increase c-fos mRNA in cultured Sertoli cells. FSH, serum, and phorbol esters individually stimulate c-fos in cultured Sertoli cells whereas platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, and insulin-like growth factor-I have little affect. However, unlike FSH, basic FGF does not stimulate an increase in cAMP and unlike either serum or phorbol esters, basic FGF does not stimulate phosphoinositol turnover or intracellular calcium changes. When Sertoli cell protein kinase C activity is suppressed by preexposure to phorbol ester, basic FGF continues to be a potent stimulator of c-fos, indicating that the calcium/phospholipid pathway is not involved in FGF induction. Basic FGF and FSH also increase jun-B mRNA levels in cultured Sertoli cells. In response to FGF, jun-B is more transiently increased than c-fos. In contrast, in response to FSH, jun-B persists longer than c-fos. These results indicate that cultured Sertoli cells contain a FGF-like factor that increases c-fos mRNA via a mechanism not involving cAMP and the calcium/phospholipid pathways. The different responsiveness of c-fos and jun-B to FSH and basic FGF may explain differences in the ultimate actions of these two ligands.  相似文献

We have used a permeabilized cell assay and a synthetic peptide substrate (KRTLRR) to specifically monitor the activity of protein kinase C in PC12 cells preincubated with nerve growth factor (NGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), or phorbol esters. Pretreatment of PC12 cells with 1 microM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate or 1 microM phorbol dibutyrate stimulated the rate of KRTLRR peptide phosphorylation 4.8- and 2.6-fold, respectively. Furthermore, pretreatment of cells with NGF or EGF transiently increased the KRTLRR peptide kinase activity. Peak stimulations of KRTLRR peptide kinase (1.3-2-fold) were observed after 1-5 min of growth factor treatment and returned to control levels within 15-20 min. The KRTLRR peptide kinase activity fulfilled two criteria of protein kinase C. A synthetic peptide inhibitor of protein kinase C inhibited both growth factor- and phorbol ester-stimulated KRTLRR peptide kinase activity. In addition, growth factors and phorbol esters failed to stimulate KRTLRR peptide kinase activity in cells rendered protein kinase C-deficient by long-term treatment with 1 microM 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate. In contrast to the transient activation of protein kinase C, ribosomal S6 kinase, assayed with the synthetic peptide RRLSSLRA, was persistently activated by NGF and EGF. The findings indicate that protein kinase C serves an early and transient role in the molecular actions of NGF and EGF in PC12 cells.  相似文献

In quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells, platelet-derived growth factor or fibroblast growth factor known to induce both protein kinase C activation and Ca2+ mobilization raised c-fos mRNA. This action of the growth factors was mimicked by the specific activators for protein kinase C, such as phorbol esters and a membrane-permeable synthetic diacylglycerol, and also by the Ca2+ ionophores, such as A23187 and ionomycin. Prostaglandin E1 known to elevate cyclic AMP also raised c-fos mRNA, and this action was mimicked by 8-bromo-cyclic AMP, dibutyryl cyclic AMP and forskolin. These results suggest that expression of the c-fos gene is regulated by three different intracellular messenger systems, protein kinase C, Ca2+ and cyclic AMP, in Swiss 3T3 cells.  相似文献

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) has been shown to inhibit the differentiation of myogenic and adipogenic cell lines without inducing a proliferative response. We have previously shown that agents capable of activating protein kinase C (PKC), such as FGF and the phorbol ester tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), inhibit the differentiation of the adipogenic cell line TA1, as measured by the rapid loss of adipocyte-specific RNAs. We report here that the treatment of fully differentiated TA1 adipocytes with FGF at 10 ng/ml induces the reversal of adipocyte differentiation, even in cells where PKC activity has been down-regulated by TPA pretreatment. In contrast, TPA or lower concentrations of FGF (1 ng/ml), both effective inducers of c-fos RNA in adipocytes, fail to reverse adipocyte differentiation. The adipocytes, however, will extinguish differentiation-specific functions in response to TPA by the addition of a calcium ionophore. Therefore, we propose that there are two FGF-sensitive pathways in TA1 cells: one responsible for the initiation of differentiation (TPA sensitive) and another required for maintenance of the adipose phenotype (TPA insensitive). These results suggest that activation of two distinct signaling pathways--one PKC and calcium dependent, the other FGF activated but PKC independent--are capable of inhibiting the biochemical events responsible for the maintenance of adipocyte differentiation.  相似文献

Treatment of quiescent human embryonic lung fibroblastic cells (TIG-3) with 10 nM epidermal growth factor (EGF) resulted in 4-6-fold activation of a protein kinase activity in cell extracts that phosphorylated microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2) on serine and threonine residues in vitro. The half-maximal activation of the kinase activity occurred within 5 min after EGF treatment, and the maximal level was attained at 15 min. Casein and histone were very poor substrates for this EGF-stimulated MAP2 kinase activity. The activation of the kinase activity persisted after brief dialysis. Interestingly, the EGF-stimulated MAP2 kinase activity was sensitive to micromolar concentrations of free Ca2+; it was inhibited 50% by 0.5 microM Ca2+ and almost totally inhibited by 2 microM Ca2+. The activated MAP2 kinase activity was recovered in flow-through fractions on phosphocellulose column chromatography, while kinase activities that phosphorylate 40 S ribosomal protein S6 (S6 kinase activities) were mostly retained on the column and eluted at 0.5 M NaCl. Platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin, phorbol esters (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate), and fresh fetal calf serum also induced activation of the MAP2 kinase in the quiescent TIG-3 cells. The activated MAP2 kinase activity in cells stimulated by platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, insulin-like growth factor-I, insulin, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, or fetal calf serum was almost completely inhibited by 2 microM Ca2+, like the EGF-stimulated kinase. In addition, MAP2 phosphorylated by the kinase activated by different stimuli gave very similar phosphopeptide mapping patterns. These results suggest that several growth factors, phorbol esters, and serum activate a common, Ca2+-inhibitable protein kinase which is distinct from S6 kinase in quiescent human fibroblasts.  相似文献

The mouse cytotoxic T cell clone (CTLL-2) was able to grow in the presence of culture medium supplemented only with transferrin, 2-mercaptoethanol, and recombinant interleukin 2 (IL-2). This lymphokine stimulated the synthesis of DNA in these cells. Similarly, phorbol esters, which activate protein kinase C, induced DNA synthesis in this clone. Furthermore, this later proliferation was not blocked by anti-IL-2 receptor antibodies, which inhibited IL-2-induced proliferation, suggesting that it was not indirectly due to the secretion of IL-2 by the cells. CTLL-2 cells pretreated with high doses of phorbol esters for 48 h down regulated protein kinase C and were depleted of this enzyme. This was shown by: 1) purification and in vitro assay of protein kinase C; 2) the lack of effect of phorbol esters in the stimulation of the Na+/H+ anti-porter which has been directly linked to the activation of protein kinase C. As expected, those protein kinase C-depleted cells no longer synthesized DNA and proliferated in response to phorbol esters. However, they proliferated identically to control cells in response to IL-2. Therefore, our results suggest two different pathways for T cell proliferation, one which involves protein kinase C and the other which does not.  相似文献

Overexpression of protein kinase C-alpha and protein kinase C-delta has been shown to modulate a number of biological effects, including the cell growth and differentiation. We hypothesized that heparin, a potent antimitogenic drug, could affect the cell proliferation by inhibiting the expression of specific protein kinase C genes. Heparin, markedly but not completely, inhibited the serum-stimulated protein kinase C-alpha and -delta mRNA expression. Protein kinase C inhibition or down-regulation significantly decreased the serum-induced protein kinase C isoenzyme gene expression. Heparin failed to inhibit the residual effect of serum that was resistant to the above-mentioned treatments. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate elicited an increase of protein kinase C isoenzyme gene expression that was completely prevented by protein kinase C inhibition or down-regulation. Heparin dose-dependently counteracted and ultimately abolished the increase in the protein kinase C isoenzyme gene expression elicited by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results suggest that the inhibition of an autoregulatory role wielded by protein kinase C on the protein kinase C-alpha and -delta gene expression might represent a possible mechanism by which glycosaminoglycans modulate the cell growth.  相似文献

The addition of platelet-derived growth factor and fibroblast growth factor to quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts rapidly induced protein kinase C activation and Ca2+ mobilization and afterwards markedly increased c-myc mRNA levels. 1-Oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol, a membrane-permeable synthetic diacylglycerol, and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate, a tumor-promoting phorbol ester, stimulated protein kinase C activation without Ca2+ mobilization. Inversely, Ca2+ ionophores, A23187 and ionomycin, elicited Ca2+ mobilization without protein kinase C activation. Both protein kinase C-activating and Ca2+-mobilizing agents were able to increase c-myc mRNA levels in an additive manner. Prolonged treatment of the cells with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, another protein kinase C-activating phorbol ester, led to the down-regulation and complete disappearance of protein kinase C. In these cells, 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate did not increase c-myc mRNA levels, but platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, and the Ca2+ ionophores, all of which still induced Ca2+ mobilization, stimulated the increase of c-myc mRNA levels. These results strongly suggest that both protein kinase C and Ca2+ may be involved in platelet-derived growth factor- as well as fibroblast growth factor-induced expression of the c-myc oncogene in Swiss 3T3 cells.  相似文献

We have characterized effects of phorbol, 12-myristate 13 acetate (PMA) on growth and differentiation in a nullipotent embryonal carcinoma (EC) cell line, F9, in a pluripotent EC line, P19, and in the differentiated derivatives of these cells, In P19EC and F9EC PMA addition resulted in inhibition of growth, while in the differentiated derivates PMA was mitogenic. PMA did not induce differentiation in EC cells but potentiated the retinoic acid (RA) induced differentiation in P19EC, although, not in F9EC. Rapid morphological changes by PMA were seen in P19EC and two differentiated derivatives which represent different stages of differentiation. In F9 no rapid morphological changes were induced by PMA. Using [3H]phorbol dibutyrate as a ligand we showed that during differentiation into endoderm-like cells the number of phorbol ester receptors increases, while in epithelial-like derivatives no increase is found. In differentiated cells with an increased number of phorbol ester receptors, the cytoplasmic Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase (the putative receptor for phorbol esters) activity was also increased. Only in those derivatives where the number of phorbol ester receptors is increased, is the binding of epidermal growth factor (EGF) inhibited by PMA. These results suggest a relationship between levels of expression of phorbol ester receptors, cytoplasmic protein kinase C and biological effects, namely rapid morphological changes, altered growth, potentiation of RA induced differentiation, and inhibition of EGF binding.  相似文献

Expression of the N-ras oncogene under the control of the glucocorticoid-responsive promoter in the pheochromocytoma cell line UR61, a subline of PC-12 cells, has been used to investigate the differentiation process to neuronal cells triggered by ras oncogenes (I. Guerrero, A. Pellicer, and D. E. Burstein, Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 150:1185-1192, 1988). Using ras-inducible cell lines, we observed that expression of the oncogenic N-ras p21 protein interferes with the ability of phorbol esters to induce downregulation of protein kinase C. This effect was associated with the appearance of immunologically detectable protein kinase C as well as the activity of the enzyme as analyzed either by binding of [3H]phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate in intact cells or by in vitro kinase activity. These results indicate a relationship between ras p21 and protein kinase C in neuronal differentiation in this model system. Comparison to the murine fibroblast system suggests that this relationship may be functional.  相似文献

Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase is a 42-kDa serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that requires phosphorylation on both tyrosine and threonine residues for activity. This enzyme is rapidly and transiently activated in quiescent cells after addition of various agonists, including insulin, epidermal growth factor, platelet-derived growth factor, and phorbol esters. We show here that addition of the growth factors thrombin or basic fibroblast growth factor to CCL39 fibroblasts rapidly induces tyrosine phosphorylation of the p42 MAP kinase protein and concomitantly stimulates MAP kinase enzymatic activity. To elucidate the signaling pathways utilized in this activation, we took advantage of the sensitivity of CCL39 cells to the toxin of bordetella pertussis, which ADP-ribosylates two Gi proteins in this cell system. We show that pretreatment of cells with the toxin inhibited thrombin stimulation of MAP kinase by greater than 75% but had no detectable effect on the stimulation induced by basic fibroblast growth factor. We also demonstrate that these two growth factors that synergize for mitogenicity are able to cooperate in activation of MAP kinase and that this synergism is partially sensitive to pertussis toxin. Finally, we describe a 44-kDa protein, the tyrosine phosphorylation of which appears to be coregulated with p42 MAP kinase. We conclude that p42 MAP kinase (and the pp44 protein) are at or are downstream from a point of convergence of two different receptor-induced signaling pathways and might well play a key role in integrating those signals.  相似文献

The activation of protein kinase C by daphnane, ingenane and tigliane diterpenoid eaters. In this review, the mechanism of action of phorbol esters and related diterpenes is described. These compounds have been shown to stimulate a Ca2 + and phospholipid dependent protein kinase, termed kinase C. Phorbol esters activate protein kinase C by substituting for the natural effector, the second messenger, diacylglycerol. The various known protein substrates of this enzyme are described. Many of these substrates are involved in regulation of protein synthesis, DNA expression, cell transformation etc. This provides the explanation for the tumour promotion effects of some phorbol esters. Evidence for the biochemical mechanisms of action of phorbol esters that have other biological effects are also described. Recent evidence from our laboratories indicates that phorbol esters with limited biological effects, e.g. inflammatory but not tumour promoting, also act through this protein kinase. These phorbol esters appear to stimulate the phosphorylation of a different range of substrate proteins in vivo.  相似文献

Adipogenesis is orchestrated by the expression of master adipogenic regulators. In particular, phosphorylation of cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) by protein kinase A promotes CREB nuclear translocation, thereby inducing expression of the adipogenic regulators and resulting in adipogenic maturation. Although metadoxine, an ion-pair of pyridoxine and l-2-pyrrolidone-5-carboxylate, has been shown to inhibit lipid accumulation in the liver, its effect on adipocyte differentiation has never been explored. This study investigated the effects of metadoxine on the differentiation of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes and the molecular mechanism. Metadoxine treatment did not inhibit mitotic clonal expansion, but inhibited late-stage cell differentiation, suggesting that metadoxine may block the differentiation step of preadipocytes. Metadoxine inhibited CREB phosphorylation and binding to the cAMP response element, thereby repressing CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β during hormone-induced adipogenesis. Overall, metadoxine inhibits adipogenic differentiation in association with the inhibition of CREB/cAMP response element-dependent CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β induction in the protein kinase A-CREB pathway.  相似文献

The molecular mechanisms that couple growth arrest and cell differentiation were examined during adipogenesis. Here, to understand the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor (CKI) genes involved in the progression of adipogenic differentiation, we examined changes in the protein and mRNA expression levels of CKI genes in vitro. During the onset of growth arrest associated with adipogenic differentiation, two independent families of CKI genes, p27Kip1 and p18INK4c, were significantly increased. The expressions of p27Kip1 and p18INK4c, regulated at the level of protein and mRNA accumulation, were directly coupled to adipogenic differentiation. This finding was supported by the inhibition of adipogenic differentiation caused by short interfering RNA (siRNA). In this study, we investigated the regulatory effects of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGFβ-1) on CKI genes involved in adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Only the up-regulation of p18INK4c during adipogenic differentiation, and not that of the p27Kip1 gene was prevented by treatment with TGFβ-1, one of the factors that inhibit adipogenesis in vitro. This finding indicates a close correlation between adipogenic differentiation and p18INK4c induction in hMSCs. Thus, these data demonstrate a role for the differentiation-dependent cascade expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors in regulating adipogenic differentiation, thereby providing a molecular mechanism that couples growth arrest and differentiation.  相似文献

In canine thyrocytes in primary culture, our previous studies have identified three mitogenic agents and pathways: thyrotropin (TSH) acting through cyclic AMP (cAMP), EGF and its receptor tyrosine protein kinase, and the phorbol esters that stimulate protein kinase C. TSH enhances, while EGF and phorbol esters inhibit, the expression of differentiation. Given that growth and differentiation expression are often considered as mutually exclusive activities of the cells, it was conceivable that the differentiating action of TSH was restricted to noncycling (Go) cells, while the inhibition of the differentiation expression by EGF and phorbol esters only concerned proliferating cells. Therefore, the capacity to express the thyroglobulin (Tg) gene, the most prominent marker of differentiation in thyrocytes, was studied in proliferative cells (with insulin) and in quiescent cells (without insulin). Using cRNA in situ hybridization, we observed that TSH (and, to a lesser extent, insulin and insulin-like growth factor I) restored or maintained the expression of the Tg gene. Without these hormones, the Tg mRNA content became undetectable in most of the cells. EGF and 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) inhibited the Tg mRNA accumulation induced by TSH (and/or insulin). Most of the cells (up to 90%) responded to both TSH and EGF. Nevertheless, the range of individual response was quite variable. The effects of TSH and EGF on differentiation expression were not dependent on insulin and can therefore be dissociated from their mitogenic effects. Cell cycling did not affect the induction of Tg gene. Indeed, the same cell distribution of Tg mRNA content was observed in quiescent cells stimulated by TSH alone, or in cells approximately 50% of which had performed one mitotic cycle in response to TSH + insulin. Moreover, after proliferation in "dedifferentiating" conditions (EGF + serum + insulin), thyrocytes had acquired a fusiform fibroblast-like morphology, and responded to TSH by regaining a characteristic epithelial shape and high Tg mRNA content. 32 h after the replacement of EGF by TSH, cells in mitosis presented the same distribution of the Tg mRNA content as the rest of the cell population. This implies that cell cycling (at least 27 h, as previously shown) did not affect the induction of the Tg gene which is clearly detectable after a time lag of at least 24 h. The data unequivocally show that the reexpression of differentiation and proliferative activity are separate but fully compatible processes when induced by cAMP in thyrocytes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献
