Neutrophil-dependent inflammation dependent on monosodium urate (MSU) crystal-induced IL-8 expression occurs in gout. MSU crystals activate phagocyte Src family tyrosine kinases and the serine/threonine kinase p70s6k. Thus, using monocytic THP-1 cells, we assessed the potential for Src family kinases and p70s6k to mediate MSU-induced IL-8 expression. MSU crystals induced phosphorylation of p70s6k and the Src kinases c-Src, Lyn, Hck, and Fyn. IL-8 expression was attenuated more by the Src kinase inhibitor PP1 than by the p70s6k inhibitor rapamycin. PP1 inhibited crystal-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and IkappaBalpha and suppressed IkappaB kinase (IKK) activation and NF-kappaB binding to the IL-8 promoter, signals that mediate MSU-induced IL-8 expression. Transfection of the native Src inhibitor, C-terminal Src kinase (Csk), also suppressed crystal-induced c-Src, ERK1/2, and IkappaBalpha phosphorylation and IL-8 expression. We conclude that Src family tyrosine kinase signaling plays a significant role in MSU crystal-induced IL-8 expression via stimulation of ERK1/2 pathway and NF-kappaB activation.

NF kappa B is a critical transcription factor involved in modulating cellular responses to environmental injuries. Tyrosine 42 phosphorylation of I kappa B alpha has been shown to mediate NF kappa B activation following hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) or pervanadate treatment. This pathway differs from the canonical proinflammatory pathways, which mediate NF kappa B activation through serine phosphorylation of I kappa B alpha by the IKK complex. In the present study, we investigated the involvement of c-Src in the redox activation of NFkappaB following H/R or pervanadate treatment. Our results demonstrate that pervanadate or H/R treatment leads to tyrosine phosphorylation of I kappa B alpha and NF kappa B transcriptional activation independent of the IKK pathway. In contrast, inhibition of c-Src by pp2 treatment or in c-Src (-/-) knockout cell lines, demonstrated a significant reduction in I kappa B alpha tyrosine phosphorylation and NF kappa B activation following pervanadate or H/R treatment. Overexpression of glutathione peroxidase-1 or catalase, but not Mn-SOD or Cu,Zn-SOD, significantly reduced both NF kappa B activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of I kappa B alpha. In vitro kinase assays further demonstrated that immunoprecipitated c-Src has the capacity to directly phosphorylate GST-I kappa B alpha and that this I kappa B alpha kinase activity is significantly reduced by Gpx-1 overexpression. These results suggest that c-Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of I kappa B alpha and subsequent activation of NF kappa B is controlled by intracellular H(2)O(2) and defines an important redox-regulated pathway for NF kappa B activation following H/R injury that is independent of the IKK complex.

Gastric epithelial cells were incubated with a panel of clinical isolates of Helicobacter pylori, including nonulcer dyspepsia with gastritis (HS, n = 20), gastric ulcer (HU, n = 20), duodenal ulcer (HD, n = 21), and gastric cancer (HC, n = 20). HC strains induced a higher cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression than those from HS, HD, and HU. The bacterial virulence factors and the host cellular pathways were investigated. Virulence genes of iceA, vacA, babA2, cagA 3' repeat region, and hrgA failed to show any association with the disease status and COX-2 expression. Methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction revealed HC strains not affecting the methylation status of COX-2 promoter. Nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB, NF-interleukin 6, and cAMP response element were found to be involved in COX-2 induction. We explored a novel NF-kappaB activation pathway. The mutants of TLR2 and TLR9, but not TLR4, inhibited H. pylori-induced COX-2 promoter activity, and neutralizing antibodies for TLR2 and TLR9 abolished H. pylori-induced COX-2 expression. Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC), protein kinase C (PKC), and Src inhibitors inhibited COX-2 induction. The dominant-negative mutants of NIK and various IkappaB kinase complexes, including IKKbeta (Y188F), IKKbeta (Y199F), and IKKbeta (FF), inhibited the COX-2 promoter activity. Phosphorylation of GST-IKKbeta (132-206) at Tyr188 and Tyr199 by c-Src was found after H. pylori infection. In summary, H. pylori induces COX-2 expression via activations of NF-kappaB, NF-interleukin 6, the cAMP response element. In NF-kappaB activation, H. pylori acts through TLR2/TLR9 to activate both the cascade of PI-PLCgamma/PKCalpha/c-Src/IKKalpha/beta and the cascade of NIK/IKKalpha/beta, resulting in the IkappaBalpha degradation and the expression of COX-2 gene. The COX-2 overexpression may contribute to the carcinogenesis in patients colonized with these strains.

The G(i)-linked adenosine A1 receptor has been shown to mediate anti-inflammatory actions, possibly via modulation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-kappaB (NFkappaB). Here we demonstrate that an adenosine A1 agonist, N(6)-cyclohexyladenosine (CHA), activated IKKalpha/beta phosphorylation through PTX-insensitive G proteins in human lymphoblastoma Reh cells. To delineate the mechanism of action, different PTX-insensitive G proteins were expressed in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. Only Galpha(16) supported the CHA-induced IKK phosphorylation and NFkappaB-driven luciferase activity in time-dependent, dose-dependent, and PTX-insensitive manners. Gbetagamma subunits also modulated IKK/NFkappaB, as indicated by the stimulatory actions of Gbeta(1)gamma(2) and the abrogation of CHA-induced response by transducin. The participation of phospholipase Cbeta, protein kinase C, and calmodulin-dependent kinase II in CHA-induced IKK/NFkappaB activation were demonstrated by employing specific inhibitors and dominant-negative mutants. Inhibition of c-Src and numerous intermediates along the extracellular signal-regulated (ERK) kinase cascade including Ras, Raf-1 kinase, and MEK1/2 abolished the CHA-induced IKK/NFkappaB activation. Although c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 MAPK were also activated by CHA, they were not required for the IKK/NFkappaB regulation. Similar results were obtained using Reh cells. These data suggest that the G(16)-mediated activation of IKK/NFkappaB by CHA required a complex signaling network composed of multiple intermediates.

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) mediates numerous host responses through the rapid activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B), but the signal pathways leading to NF-kappa B activation are regulated at multiple stages. Here, we propose a novel regulatory system for IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation by a tyrosine kinase, c-Src. The kinase activity of c-Src increases in an IL-1-dependent manner and the ectopic expression of c-Src augments IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation, suggesting the involvement of c-Src in IL-1 signaling. However, a Src family inhibitor, PP2 failed to inhibit IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation, and the expression of a c-Src mutant lacking kinase activity (c-Src KD) augmented IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation as well as wild type c-Src, indicating that the tyrosine kinase activity is not required for IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation. Furthermore, a physiological interaction between c-Src and I kappa B kinase gamma (IKK gamma) was observed, implying the involvement of c-Src in the IKK-complex. While c-Src augmented IL-1-induced IKK activation independent of its kinase activity, the region comprising amino acids 361-440 in the c-Src kinase domain are required for NF-kappa B activation. The same region of c-Src is also required for IL-1-induced IKK activation and the association with IKK gamma. Taken together, our results suggest that c-Src plays a critical role in IL-1-induced NF-kappa B activation through the IKK complex.

Opioid receptors are involved in regulating neuronal survival. Here we demonstrate that activation of the mu-opioid receptor in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells led to the phosphorylations of IkappaB kinase (IKK) and p65, denoting the stimulation of the nuclear factor-kappaB (NFkappaB) transcription factor. This response was mediated through pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins. The mu-opioid-induced IKK phosphorylation required extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and c-Src. Moreover, c-Jun N-terminal kinase and calmodulin-dependent kinase II also participated in the IKK activation, despite the lack of involvement of phospholipase Cbeta and protein kinase C. These data suggest that the mu-opioid receptor is capable of simulating NFkappaB signaling via the phosphorylation of IKK and p65 in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells.

In this study, we examined the regulation of NF-kappaB activation and IL-8/CXCL8 expression by thrombin in human lung epithelial cells (EC). Thrombin caused a concentration-dependent increase in IL-8/CXCL8 release in a human lung EC line (A549) and primary normal human bronchial EC. In A549 cells, thrombin, SFLLRN-NH2 (a protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) agonist peptide), and GYPGQV-NH2 (a PAR4 agonist peptide), but not TFRGAP-NH2 (a PAR3 agonist peptide), induced an increase in IL-8/CXCL8-luciferase (Luc) activity. The thrombin-induced IL-8/CXCL8 release was attenuated by D-phenylalanyl-L-prolyl-L-arginine chloromethyl ketone (a thrombin inhibitor), U73122 (a phosphoinositide-phospholipase C inhibitor), Ro-32-0432 (a protein kinsase C alpha (PKC alpha) inhibitor), an NF-kappaB inhibitor peptide, and Bay 117082 (an IkappaB phosphorylation inhibitor). Thrombin-induced increase in IL-8/CXCL8-Luc activity was inhibited by the dominant-negative mutant of c-Src and the cells transfected with the kappaB site mutation of the IL-8/CXCL8 construct. Thrombin caused time-dependent increases in phosphorylation of c-Src at tyrosine 416 and c-Src activity. Thrombin-elicited c-Src activity was inhibited by Ro-32-0432. Stimulation of cells with thrombin activated IkappaB kinase alphabeta (IKK alphabeta), IkappaB alpha phosphorylation, IkappaB alpha degradation, p50 and p65 translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus, NF-kappaB-specific DNA-protein complex formation, and kappaB-Luc activity. Pretreatment of A549 cells with Ro-32-4032 and the dominant-negative mutant of c-Src DN inhibited thrombin-induced IKK alphabeta activity, kappaB-Luc activity, and NF-kappaB-specific DNA-protein complex formation. Further studies revealed that thrombin induced PKC alpha, c-Src, and IKK alphabeta complex formation. These results show for the first time that thrombin, acting through PAR1 and PAR4, activates the phosphoinositide-phospholipase C/PKC alpha/c-Src/IKK alphabeta signaling pathway to induce NF-kappaB activation, which in turn induces IL-8/CXCL8 expression and release in human lung EC.

Fibronectin (Fn) is involved in early stages of bone formation and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) is an important factor regulating osteogenesis. bFGF increased Fn expression, which was attenuated by phosphatidylinositol phospholipase inhibitor (U73122), protein kinase C inhibitor (GF109203X), Src inhibitor (PP2), NF-kappaB inhibitor (PDTC), IkappaBalpha phosphorylation inhibitor (Bay 117082), or IkappaB protease inhibitor (TPCK). bFGF-induced increase of Fn-luciferase activity was antagonized by cells transfected with Fn construct without NF-kappaB regulatory site. Stimulation of osteoblasts with bFGF activated IkappaB kinase alpha/beta (IKK alpha/beta) and increased IkappaBalpha phosphorylation, IkappaBalpha degradation, p65 and p50 translocation from the cytosol to the nucleus, the formation of an NF-kappaB-specific DNA-protein complex and kappaB-luciferase activity. bFGF-mediated an increase of IKKalpha/beta activity and DNA-binding activity was inhibited by U73122, GF109203X, or PP2. The binding of p65 to the NF-kappaB element, as well as the recruitment of p300 and the enhancement of p50 acetylation on the Fn promoter was enhanced by bFGF. Overexpression of constitutively active FGF receptor 2 (FGFR2) increased Fn-luciferase activity, which was inhibited by co-transfection with dominant negative (DN) mutants of PLCgamma2, PKCalpha, c-Src, IKKalpha, or IKKbeta. Our results suggest that bFGF increased Fn expression in rat osteoblasts via the FGFR2/PLCgamma2/PKCalpha/c-Src/NF-kappaB signaling pathway.

Hsp90 is a protein chaperone regulating the stability and activity of many signalling molecules. The requirement of Hsp90 activity in the NF-kappaB pathway has been recently reported by several authors using the Hsp90 ATPase inhibitor geldanamycin (GA), an anti-tumor drug. Hsp90 inhibition blocks the synthesis and activation of the IKK complex, the major kinases complex responsible for IkappaBalpha phosphorylation on serine 32 and 36, a key step for its degradation and the nuclear translocation of NF-kappaB. However, the effect of GA on other IkappaBalpha kinases, including tyrosine kinases, is unknown. In the present study, we investigated the effect of GA on NF-kappaB activation induced by sodium pervanadate (PV), a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor triggering c-Src-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of IkappaBalpha. We report for the first time that GA inhibits PV-induced IkappaBalpha tyrosine phosphorylation and degradation. Using an in vitro kinase assay, we demonstrated that GA inhibits the activity of c-Src as an IkappaBalpha tyrosine kinase, but not its cellular expression. As a result, GA blocked PV-induced NF-kappaB DNA-binding activity on an exogenous kappaB element and on the endogenous ikappabalpha promoter, thereby inhibiting ikappabalpha transcription. Finally, we demonstrated that, despite NF-kappaB inhibition, pre-treatment with GA does not potentiate PV-induced apoptosis. We conclude that c-Src requires Hsp90 for its tyrosine kinase activity, and its inhibition by GA blocks c-Src-dependent signalling pathways, such as NF-kappaB activation induced by sodium pervanadate. The effect of GA on PV-induced apoptosis is discussed in the light of recent publications in the literature.

Agonists of CC chemokine receptor CCR1 contribute to the pathogenesis of autoimmune and other inflammatory diseases, possibly via the regulation of the transcription factor NF-kappaB. CCR1 and CCR2b have been demonstrated to use PTX-insensitive Galpha(14) and Galpha(16) to stimulate PLCbeta in cotransfected cells, and Galpha(14) and Galpha(16) are capable of activating NF-kappaB. The coexpression of Galpha(14), Galpha(16), and CCR1 in human monocytic THP-1 cells suggests that CCR1 may use Galpha(14) or Galpha(16) to induce NF-kappaB activation. Here, we demonstrated that a CCR1 agonist, Lkn-1, stimulated NF-kappaB phosphorylation via PTX-insensitive G proteins in THP-1 cells. Lkn-1 also mediated IKK/NF-kappaB phosphorylations in HEK293 cells overexpressing CCR1 and Galpha(14/16). Using various kinase inhibitors, Raf-1, MEK1/2, PLCbeta, PKC, CaM, CaMKII, and c-Src were found to participate in Lkn-1-stimulated IKK/NF-kappaB phosphorylations in THP-1 and transfected HEK293 cells. Although c-Jun N-terminal kinase and p38 MAPK were activated by Lkn-1, they were not required in Lkn-1-induced IKK phosphorylation. The ability of CCR1 to signal through Galpha(14/16) thus provides a linkage for chemokines to regulate NF-kappaB-dependent responses.
