Abstract: | Platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) became tyrosine autophosphorylated in rat mesangial cells shortly after platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) ligation in a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (tyrphostin AG 1296) sensitive manner. Ligand-independent, massive tyrosine PDGFR phosphorylation was achieved by diverse NO releasing compounds. Phosphorylation was slow compared to PDGF, revealed a concentration- and time-dependency, and was not mimicked by lipophilic cyclic-GMP analogues. Interleukin-1 beta/cAMP activated mesangial cells released NO and in turn showed PDGFR phosphorylation. A NO-synthase involvement was assured by L-NG-nitroarginine methyl ester inhibition. PDGFR phosphorylation was also achieved by the redox cycler 2,3-dimethoxy-1,4-naphthoquinone. NO- and O2(.-)-evoked PGDFR phosphorylation was N-acetylcysteine reversible. Cell free dephosphorylation assays revealed PDGFR dephosphorylation by tyrosine phosphatases. Receptor dephosphorylation by cytosolic phosphatases was completed within 30 min and was sensitive to the readdition of NO donors or orthovanadate. In addition, phosphatase activity determined in a direct dephosphorylation assay using the substrate para-nitrophenyl phosphate was attenuated by NO or vanadate. We conclude that cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatases are targeted by exogenously supplied or endogenously generated NO in mesangial cells. Radical (NO. or O2.-) formation shifts the phosphorylation--dephosphorylation equilibrium towards phosphorylation, thus integrating redox-mediated responses into established signal transducing pathways. |
