The membrane form of the DNA repair protein Ku interacts at the cell surface with metalloproteinase 9 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The Ku heterodimer (Ku70/Ku80) plays a central role in DNA double-strand breaks repair. Ku is also expressed on the cell surface of different types of cells where its function remains poorly understood. From a yeast two-hybrid screen, we have identified a specific interaction between the core region of Ku80 and the hemopexin domain of metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9), a key enzyme involved in the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Ku associates with MMP-9 on the surface of leukemic cells as demonstrated by co-immunoprecipitation experiments in membrane extracts and double-label immunofluorescence studies. In normal and tumoral migratory cells, Ku80 and MMP-9 colocalize at the periphery of leading edge of cells and cellular invasion of collagen IV matrices was blocked by antibodies directed against Ku70 or Ku80 subunits as well as by Ku80-specific antisense oligonucleotides. Our results indicate that Ku and MMP-9 interact at the cell membrane of highly invasive hematopoietic cells of normal and tumoral origin and document the unexpected importance of the membrane-associated form of Ku in the regulation of ECM remodelling. 相似文献

The Membrane-associated form of the DNA repair protein Ku is involved in cell adhesion to fibronectin 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The Ku heterodimer (Ku70/Ku80) plays a central role in DNA double-strand breaks recognition and repair. However, Ku is expressed also on the surface of different types of cells along with its intracellular pool within the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Participation of membrane-associated Ku in cell-cell interaction has been reported recently. Here, we describe a novel function of cell-surface Ku as an adhesion receptor for fibronectin (Fn). The role of Ku in cell adhesion was investigated by comparing the Ku80 deficient Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line, xrs-6, with clones transfected stably with either the hamster or human Ku80 cDNA. Ku expression in transfectant cells resulted in a significant increased adhesion on Fn and type IV collagen as compared to control cells. The observed increase in cell adhesion relied on Ku cell-surface expression, since antibodies directed against Ku70 or Ku80 subunit inhibited adhesion on Fn of Ku80, but not control vector, transfected xrs-6 cells. In addition, both Ku70 and Ku80 present a structural relationship with integrin I (or A) domains and the A1 and A3 domains of von Willebrand factor, domains known to be involved in Fn binding. Both Ku70 and Ku80 exhibit a complete set of residues compatible in their position and chemical nature with the formation of a metal ion-dependent adhesion (MIDAS) site implicated in ligand binding and integrin activation. Taken together, these functional and structural approaches support a new role for Ku as an adhesion receptor for Fn. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) activation of phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) is an essential pathway for keratinocyte migration that is required for epidermis wound healing. We have previously reported that activation of Gα(q/11)-coupled-P2Y2 purinergic receptors by extracellular nucleotides delays keratinocyte wound closure. Here, we report that activation of P2Y2 receptors by extracellular UTP inhibits the IGF-I–induced p110α-PI3K activation. Using siRNA and pharmacological inhibitors, we demonstrate that the UTP antagonistic effects on PI3K pathway are mediated by Gα(q/11)—and not G(i/o)—independently of phospholipase Cβ. Purinergic signaling does not affect the formation of the IGF-I receptor/insulin receptor substrate-I/p85 complex, but blocks the activity of a membrane-targeted active p110α mutant, indicating that UTP acts downstream of PI3K membrane recruitment. UTP was also found to efficiently attenuate, within few minutes, the IGF-I–induced PI3K-controlled translocation of the actin-nucleating protein cortactin to the plasma membrane. This supports the UTP ability to alter later migratory events. Indeed, UTP inhibits keratinocyte spreading and migration promoted by either IGF-I or a membrane-targeted active p110α mutant, in a Gα(q/11)-dependent manner both. These findings provide new insight into the signaling cross-talk between receptor tyrosine kinase and Gα(q/11)-coupled receptors, which mediate opposite effects on p110α-PI3K activity and keratinocyte migration. 相似文献

The capacity of cholera toxin (CT) and type I heat-labile enterotoxin produced by Escherichia coli isolated from human intestine (LTh) to interact with glycoconjugates bearing ABH blood group determinants from rabbit intestinal brush border membranes (BBM) was studied. On the basis of the type of intestinal compounds related to the human ABH blood group antigens, rabbits were classified as AB or H. Toxin binding to the intestinal glycolipids and glycoproteins depends on the blood group determinant borne by the glycoconjugate and on the analyzed toxin. LTh was capable of interacting preferentially with several blood group A- and B-active BBM glycolipids compared to those isolated from animals lacking these antigens (H rabbits). Also, LTh preferably bound to several BBM glycoproteins from AB rabbit intestines compared to those from H ones. One of these glycoproteins, the sucrase-isomaltase complex (EC 3.2.1.48-10) isolated from AB and H rabbits showed the same differential LTh binding. Conversely, CT practically did not recognize either blood group A-, B-, or H-active glycolipids and glycoproteins. These results may be relevant for carrying out in vivo experiments in rabbits in order to disclose the role of ABH active-glycoconjugates in the secretory response induced by LTh in rabbit intestine. 相似文献

Rats with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) induced with myelin or spinal cord show decreases in the content of sulphatides and cerebrosides and increases in the level of esterified cholesterol in the CNS. In this work it is shown that brain sulphatide changes can be obtained by injection of mixtures containing glycosphingolipids. Alterations in the content of cerebrosides occur when the injection mixture contains cerebrosides. The alterations of sulphatides and cholesterol ester induced by injection of spinal cord could be suppressed by treatment with immunosuppressive drugs (dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide and 6-mercaptopurine) able to prevent clinical signs of EAE. 相似文献

Unlike other Rho GTPases, RhoB is rapidly induced by DNA damage, and its expression level decreases during cancer progression. Because inefficient repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) can lead to cancer, we investigated whether camptothecin, an anticancer drug that produces DSBs, induces RhoB expression and examined its role in the camptothecin-induced DNA damage response. We show that in camptothecin-treated cells, DSBs induce RhoB expression by a mechanism that depends notably on Chk2 and its substrate HuR, which binds to RhoB mRNA and protects it against degradation. RhoB-deficient cells fail to dephosphorylate γH2AX following camptothecin removal and show reduced efficiency of DSB repair by homologous recombination. These cells also show decreased activity of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), a phosphatase for γH2AX and other DNA damage and repair proteins. Thus, we propose that DSBs activate a Chk2-HuR-RhoB pathway that promotes PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation of γH2AX and DSB repair. Finally, we show that RhoB-deficient cells accumulate endogenous γH2AX and chromosomal abnormalities, suggesting that RhoB loss increases DSB-mediated genomic instability and tumor progression. 相似文献

Human colon adenocarcinoma cells (HT29-ATCC) and the clone HT29-5F7 were cultured under conditions that differentiate cells to a polarized intestinal phenotype. Differentiated cells showed the presence of junctional complexes and intercellular lumina bordered by microvilli. Intestinal brush border hydrolase activities (sucrase, aminopeptidase N, lactase and maltase) were detected mainly in differentiated HT29-ATCC cells compared with the differentiated clone, HT29-5F7. The presence of non-GM1 receptors of Escherichia coli heat-labile enterotoxin (LT-I) on both types of differentiated HT29 cells was indicated by the inability of cholera toxin B subunit to block LT-I binding to the cells. Binding of LT-I to cells, when GM1 was blocked by the cholera toxin B subunit, was characterized by an increased number of LT-I receptors with respect to undifferentiated control cells. Moreover, both types of differentiated cells accumulated higher amounts of cyclic AMP in response to LT-I than undifferentiated cells. Helix pomatia lectin inhibited the binding of LT-I to cells and the subsequent production of cyclic AMP. LT-I recognized blood group A-active glycosphingolipids as functional receptors in both HT29 cell lines and the active pro-sucrase form of the glycoprotein carrying A-blood group activity present in HT29-ATCC cells. These results strongly suggest that LT-I can elicit an enhanced functional response using blood group A-active glycoconjugates as additional receptors on polarized intestinal epithelial cells. 相似文献

The B subunit of Escherichia coli heat-labile toxin (LTB) may function as an efficient carrier molecule for the delivery of genetically coupled antigens across the mucosal barrier. We constructed vectors for the expression of LTB and LTBSC proteins. LTBSC is a fusion protein that comprises the amino acid sequence from the C-domain of rat synapsin fused to the C-terminal end of LTB. Both constructions have a coding sequence for a 6His-tag fused in-frame. LTBSC was expressed in E. coli as inclusion bodies. The inclusion bodies were isolated and purified by Ni2+-chelating affinity chromatography under denaturing condition. Purified LTBSC was diluted in several refolding buffers to gain a soluble and biologically active protein. Refolded LTBSC assembled as an active oligomer which binds to the GM1 receptor in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Soluble LTB in the E. coli lysate was also purified by Ni2+-chelating affinity chromatography and the assembled pentamer was able to bind with high affinity to GM1 in vitro. LTBSC and LTB were fed to rats and the ability to induce antigen-specific tolerance was tested. LTBSC inhibited the specific delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) response and induced decreased antigen-specific in vivo and in vitro cell proliferation more efficiently than LTB. Thus, the novel hybrid molecule LTBSC when orally delivered was able to elicit a systemic immune response. These results suggest that LTBSC could be suitable for exploring further therapeutic treatment of autoimmune inflammatory diseases involving antigens from central nervous system. 相似文献

Summary The ability of native and chemically modified myelin basic protein to induce fusion of chicken erythrocytes and to interact with lipids in monolayers at the air-water interface and liposomes was studied. Chemical modifications of myelin basic protein were performed by acetylation and succinylation: the positive charges of the native protein were blocked to an extent of about 90–95%.Cellular aggregation and fusion of erythrocytes into multinucleated cells was induced by the native myelin basic protein. This effect was diminished for both acetylated and succinylated myelin basic protein. Native myelin basic protein penetrated appreciably in sulphatide-containing lipid monolayers while lower penetration occurred in monolayers of neutral lipids. Contrary to this, both chemically modified myelin basic proteins did not show any selectivity to penetrate into interfaces of neutral or negatively charged lipids. The intrinsic fluorescence of the native and chemically modified myelin basic proteins upon interacting with liposomes constituted by dipalmitoylphosphatidycholine, glycosphingolipids, egg phosphatidic acid or dipalmitoylphosphatidyl glycerol was studied. The interaction with liposomes of anionic lipids is accompanied by a blue shift of the maximum of the native protein emission fluorescence spectrum from 346 nm to 335 nm; no shift was observed with liposomes containing neutral lipids. The acetylated and succinylated myelin basic proteins did not show changes of their emission spectra upon interacting with any of the lipids studied. The results obtained in monolayers and the fluorescence shifts indicate a lack of correlation between the ability of the modified proteins to penetrate lipid interfaces and the microenvironment sensed by the tryptophan-containing domain.Abbreviations MBP
