Mutations in SHP-2 phosphatase (PTPN11) that cause hyperactivation
of its catalytic activity have been identified in Noonan syndrome and various
childhood leukemias. Recent studies suggest that the gain-of-function (GOF)
mutations of SHP-2 play a causal role in the pathogenesis of these diseases.
However, the molecular mechanisms by which GOF mutations of SHP-2 induce these
phenotypes are not fully understood. Here, we show that GOF mutations in
SHP-2, such as E76K and D61G, drastically increase spreading and migration of
various cell types, including hematopoietic cells, endothelial cells, and
fibroblasts. More importantly, in vivo angiogenesis in SHP-2 D61G
knock-in mice is also enhanced. Mechanistic studies suggest that the increased
cell migration is attributed to the enhanced β1 integrin outside-in
signaling. In response to β1 integrin cross-linking or fibronectin
stimulation, activation of ERK and Akt kinases is greatly increased by SHP-2
GOF mutations. Also, integrin-induced activation of RhoA and Rac1 GTPases is
elevated. Interestingly, mutant cells with the SHP-2 GOF mutation (D61G) are
more sensitive than wild-type cells to the suppression of cell motility by
inhibition of these pathways. Collectively, these studies reaffirm the
positive role of SHP-2 phosphatase in cell motility and suggest a new
mechanism by which SHP-2 GOF mutations contribute to diseases.SHP-2, a multifunctional SH2 domain-containing protein-tyrosine phosphatase
implicated in diverse cell signaling processes
(1–3),
plays a critical role in cellular function. Homozygous deletion of Exon
2 (4) or Exon 3
(5) of the SHP-2 gene
(PTPN11) in mice leads to early embryonic lethality prior to and at
midgestation, respectively. SHP-2 null mutant mice die much earlier, at
peri-implantation (4). Exon
3 deletion mutation of SHP-2 blocks hematopoietic potential of embryonic
stem cells both in vitro and in vivo
(6–8),
whereas SHP-2 null mutation causes inner cell mass death and diminished
trophoblast stem cell survival
(4). Recent studies on SHP-2
conditional knock-out or tissue-specific knock-out mice have further revealed
an array of important functions of this phosphatase in various physiological
processes
(9–12).
The phenotypes demonstrated by loss of SHP-2 function are apparently
attributed to the role of SHP-2 in the cell signaling pathways induced by
growth factors/cytokines. SHP-2 generally promotes signal transmission in
growth factor/cytokine signaling in both catalytic-dependent and -independent
fashion
(1–3).
The positive role of SHP-2 in the intracellular signaling processes, in
particular, the ERK3
and PI3K/Akt kinase pathways, has been well established, although the
underlying mechanism remains elusive, in particular, the signaling function of
the catalytic activity of SHP-2 in these pathways is poorly understood.In addition to the role of SHP-2 in cell proliferation and differentiation,
the phenotypes induced by loss of SHP-2 function may be associated with its
role in cell migration. Indeed, dominant negative SHP-2 disrupts
Xenopus gastrulation, causing tail truncations
(13,
14). Targeted Exon 3
deletion mutation in SHP-2 results in decreased cell spreading, migration
(15,
16), and impaired limb
development in the chimeric mice
(7). The role of SHP-2 in cell
adhesion and migration has also been demonstrated by catalytically inactive
mutant SHP-2-overexpressing cells
(17–20).
The molecular mechanisms by which SHP-2 regulates these cellular processes,
however, have not been well defined. For example, the role of SHP-2 in the
activation of the Rho family small GTPases that is critical for cell motility
is still controversial. Both positive
(19,
21,
22) and negative roles
(18,
23) for SHP-2 in this context
have been reported. Part of the reason for this discrepancy might be due to
the difference in the cell models used. Catalytically inactive mutant SHP-2
was often used to determine the role of SHP-2 in cell signaling. In the
catalytically inactive mutant SHP-2-overexpressing cells, the catalytic
activity of endogenous SHP-2 is inhibited. However, as SHP-2 also functions
independent of its catalytic activity, overexpression of catalytically
deficient SHP-2 may also increase its scaffolding function, generating complex
effects.The critical role of SHP-2 in cellular function is further underscored by
the identification of SHP-2 mutations in human diseases. Genetic lesions in
PTPN11 that cause hyperactivation of SHP-2 catalytic activity have
been identified in the developmental disorder Noonan syndrome
(24) and various childhood
leukemias, including juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML), B cell acute
lymphoblastic leukemia, and acute myeloid leukemia
(25,
26). In addition, activating
mutations in SHP-2 have been identified in sporadic solid tumors
(27). The SHP-2 mutations
appear to play a causal role in the development of these diseases as SHP-2
mutations and other JMML-associated Ras or Neurofibromatosis 1 mutations are
mutually exclusive in the patients
(24–27).
Moreover, single SHP-2 gain-of-function (GOF) mutations are sufficient to
induce Noonan syndrome, cytokine hypersensitivity in hematopoietic progenitor
cells, and JMML-like myeloproliferative disease in mice
(28–32).
Gain-of-function cell models derived from the newly available SHP-2 GOF
mutation (D61G) knock-in mice
(28) now provide us with a
good opportunity to clarify the role of SHP-2 in cell motility. Unlike the
dominant negative approach in which overexpression of mutant forms of SHP-2
generates complex effects, the SHP-2 D61G knock-in model eliminates this
possibility as the mutant SHP-2 is expressed at the physiological level
(28). Additionally, defining
signaling functions of GOF mutant SHP-2 in cell movement can also help
elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which SHP-2 mutations contribute to the
relevant diseases. 相似文献

Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that play multiple roles in cells. How mitochondria cooperatively modulate embryonic stem (ES) cell function during development is not fully understood. Global disruption of Ptpmt1, a mitochondrial Pten-like phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) phosphatase, resulted in developmental arrest and postimplantation lethality. Ptpmt1(-/-) blastocysts failed to outgrow, and inner-cell-mass cells failed to thrive. Depletion of Ptpmt1 in conditional knockout ES cells decreased proliferation without affecting energy homeostasis or cell survival. Differentiation of Ptpmt1-depleted ES cells was essentially blocked. This was accompanied by upregulation of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors and a significant cell cycle delay. Reintroduction of wild-type but not of catalytically deficient Ptpmt1 C132S or truncated Ptpmt1 lacking the mitochondrial localization signal restored the differentiation capabilities of Ptpmt1 knockout ES cells. Intriguingly, Ptpmt1 is specifically important for stem cells, as ablation of Ptpmt1 in differentiated embryonic fibroblasts did not disturb cellular function. Further analyses demonstrated that oxygen consumption of Ptpmt1-depleted cells was decreased, while glycolysis was concomitantly enhanced. In addition, mitochondrial fusion/dynamics were compromised in Ptpmt1 knockout cells due to accumulation of PIPs. These studies, while establishing a crucial role for Ptpmt1 phosphatase in embryogenesis, reveal a mitochondrial metabolic stress-activated checkpoint in the control of ES cell differentiation. 相似文献

The construction of the shuttle, expression vector of human tumor necrosis factor alpha (hTNF-α) gene and its expression in
a cyanobacteriumAnabaena sp. PCC 7120 was reported. The 700-bp hTNF cDNA fragments have been recovered from plasmid pRL-rhTNF, then inserted downstream
of the promoter PpsbA in the plasmid pRL439. The resultant intermediary plasmid pRL-TC has further been combined with the
shuttle vector pDC-8 to get the shuttle, expression vector pDGTNF. The expression of the rhTNF gene inEscherichia coli has been analyzed by SDS-PAGE and thin-layer scanning, and the results show that the expressed TNF protein with these two
vectors is 16.9 percent (pRL-TC) and 15.0 percent (pDC-TNF) of the total proteins in the cells, respectively, while the expression
level of TNF gene in plasmid pRL-rhTNF is only 11.8 percent. Combined with the participation of the conjugal and helper plasmids,
pDC-TNF has been introduced intoAnabaena sp PCC 7120 by triparental conjugative transfer, and the stable transgenic strains have been obtained. The existence of the
introduced plasmid pDC-TNF in recombinant cyanobacterial cells has been demonstrated by the results of the agarose electrophoresis
with the extracted plasmid samples and Southern blotting with α-32P labeled hTNF cDNA probes, while the expression of the hTNF gene inAnabaena sp. PCC 7120 has been confirmed by the results of Western blotting with extracted protein samples and human TNF-alpha monoclonal
antibodies. The cytotoxicity assays using the mouse cancer cell line L929 proved the cytotoxicity of the TNF in the crude
extracts from the transgenic c~anobacteriumAnabaena sp. PCC 7120.

Formation and Growth of Bryopsis hypnoides Lamouroux Regenerated from Its Protoplasts 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Nai-HaoYE Guang-CeWANG Fa-ZuoWANG Cheng-KuiZENG 《植物学报(英文版)》2005,47(7):56-862
Tissue culture, SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and spectra analysis were used for studying the aggregation mechanism of protoplasts from Bryopsis hypnoides Lamouroux and the discrepancy between the protoplast-regenerated plants and the wild type. The aggregation of protoplasts from B. hypnoides was observed in natural seawater and artificial seawater with different pH values, and the location and mechanism of the materials causing the aggregation were also studied. Results showed that the protoplasts could aggregate into some viable spheres in natural seawater and subsequently grow into mature individuals. Aggregation of the protoplasts depended exclusively upon the pH value (6-11), and the protoplasts aggregated best at pH 8-9. Some of the extruded protoplasts were separated into two parts by centrifugation: the pellet (PO) and the supernatant (PL). The PO could aggregate in artificial seawater (pH8.3) but not in PL. No aggregation was found in PO cultured in natural seawater containing nigericin, which can dissipate the proton gradients across the membrane. These experiments suggest that the aggregation of protoplasts is proton-gradient dependent and the materials causing the aggregation were not in the vacuolar sap, but located on the surface or inside the organelles. Furthermore, the transfer of the materials across the membrane was similar to △pH-based translocafion (△pH/TAT) pathway that occurs in the chloroplasts of higher plants and bacteria. Obvious discrepancies in both the total soluble proteins and the ratio of chlorophyll a to chlorophyll b between the regenerated B. hypnoides and the wild type were found, which may be related to the exchange of genetic material during aggregation of the organelles. In the process of development, diatom Amphora coffeaeformis Agardh attached to the protoplast aggregations, retarding their further development, and once they were removed, the aggregations immediately germinated, which showed that diatoms can affect the development of other algae. 相似文献
