In this study we compare the effect of CD3 and CD2 ligation on tyrosine kinase activation in human peripheral blood T cells. Using antiphosphotyrosine antibody to detect tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular substrates, we demonstrate that mAb stimulation of either CD3 or CD2 results in tyrosine phosphorylation of the TCR-zeta chain and 135- and 100-kDa proteins. However, differences are observed between CD3 and CD2 ligation; only the former results in rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of 72-, 65-, and 40-kDa substrates. Co-aggregation of CD2 and CD45, a tyrosine phosphatase, results in inhibition of intracellular calcium elevation and T cell proliferation. We demonstrate in this study that this manipulation also inhibits polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis and tyrosine phosphorylation of the 100-kDa substrate. The failure of tyrosine phosphorylation of the 100-kDa substrate is specific in that phosphorylation of the 135-kDa protein is not inhibited. Similar results are observed when CD2 and CD45 are independently cross-linked rather than co-aggregated. The observation that CD45 cross-linking alters tyrosine phosphorylation of T cell substrates and effects polyphosphoinositide hydrolysis is further evidence that tyrosine phosphorylation regulates early events in T cell activation including, perhaps, phospholipase C activity.

We have studied the signal transduction pathways of fibroblast growth factor receptor-4 (FGFR-4) and FGFR-1, which showed virtually identical acidic fibroblast growth factor binding profiles as well as tyrosine autophosphorylation upon activation in transfected L6 rat myoblasts and NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts. A prominently tyrosyl-phosphorylated doublet of polypeptides of 85 kDa coprecipitated with activated FGFR-4 from both cell lines studied, but these polypeptides were not detected upon immunoprecipitation of activated FGFR-1. Furthermore, FGFR-4 induced only a weak tyrosyl phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma and no detectable tyrosyl phosphorylation of the SHC adaptor proteins in contrast to FGFR-1. No phosphorylation of Ras GTPase-activating protein, p64 Syp/PTP1D tyrosine phosphatase, or association of the GRB2 adaptor protein SH2 domain with these receptors was detected. Unlike FGFR-1, FGFR-4 induced only a barely detectable phosphorylation of the cellular serine/threonine kinase Raf-1 and a weaker tyrosyl phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases than FGFR-1. Despite these differences, stimulation of both receptors resulted in increased DNA synthesis.

When expressed in PC12 cells, the platelet-derived growth factor beta receptor (beta PDGF-R) mediates cell differentiation. Mutational analysis of the beta PDGF-R indicated that persistent receptor stimulation of the Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase pathway alone was insufficient to sustain PC12 cell differentiation. PDGF receptor activation of signal pathways involving p60c-src or the persistent regulation of phospholipase C gamma was required for PC12 cell differentiation. beta PDGF-R regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, the GTPase-activating protein of Ras, and the tyrosine phosphatase, Syp, was not required for PC12 cell differentiation. In contrast to overexpression of oncoproteins involved in regulating the MAP kinase pathway, growth factor receptor-mediated differentiation of PC12 cells requires the integration of other signals with the Ras/Raf/MAP kinase pathway.

Antigen receptor-mediated activation of T and B lymphocytes results in activation of phospholipase C-gamma isozymes with subsequent hydrolysis of membrane inositol phospholipids. As a method of screening autoimmune or immunodeficient patients for early receptor signaling defects, we have developed a rapid technique for studying phosphatidylinositol (PI) hydrolysis in cultured cells and fresh clinical specimens resulting from surface receptor crosslinking. Using staphylococcal alpha-toxin, we permeabilized freshly isolated, purified human T lymphocytes to facilitate incorporation of [3H]myoinositol into membrane phospholipids. Aggregation of surface antigen receptors (TCR-CD3 complex and CD28 on T cells) with specific antibodies produced extensive ATP and Mg(2+)-dependent hydrolysis of the membrane inositol phospholipids as measured by release of water soluble inositol phosphates. Anti-human CD3 antibody produced 18.5 +/- 1.6 net % PI hydrolysis and anti-human CD28 antibody produced 4.6 +/- 0.2 net % PI hydrolysis. Simultaneous anti CD3/CD28 crosslinking produced 30.8 +/- 1.2 net % PI hydrolysis, an increase over either stimulus alone (p = 0.0013 two tailed t test). Isotype matched control antibodies produced 11.6 +/- 0.4% PI hydrolysis. The tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor orthovanadate (Na3VO4) was used as a positive control because it induces maximal protein tyrosine kinase-dependent PI hydrolysis in permeabilized cells. Na3VO4 consistently induced hydrolysis of > 50% of the membrane inositol phospholipid pool. These data indicate that costimulation of T cells with antibodies to CD3 and CD28 is synergistic and reinforces the importance of CD28 as an accessory T cell stimulus. This easy technique allows quick evaluation of the integrity of the early signaling cascade in lymphocytes as a screen for autoimmune and immunodeficiency diseases.

Potential signaling substrates for the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptor are SH2 domain proteins including the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, the tyrosine phosphatase Syp, GTPase activating protein (GAP), and phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma). In this study, we demonstrate an association between the IGF-I receptor and p85, Syp, and GAP, but not with PLC-gamma in lysates of cells overexpressing the human IGF-I receptor. We further investigated these interactions using glutathione S-transferase (GST) fusion proteins containing the amino-terminal SH2 domains of p85 or GAP, or both SH2 domains of Syp or PLC-gamma to precipitate the IGF-I receptor from purified receptor preparations and from whole cell lysates. p85-, Syp-, and GAP-GSTs precipitated the IGF-I receptor, whereas the PLC-gamma-GST did not. Using phosphopeptides corresponding to IGF-I receptor phosphorylation sites, we determined that the p85- and Syp-GST association with the IGF-I receptor could be inhibited by a carboxyl-terminal peptide containing pY1316 and that the GAP-GST association could be inhibited by a NPXY domain peptide. The GAP-GST binding site was confirmed by showing that a mutant IGF-I receptor with a deletion of the NPXY domain including tyrosine 950 was poorly precipitated by the GAP-GST. We conclude that p85 and Syp may bind directly to the IGF-I receptor at tyrosine 1316, and that GAP may bind to the IGF-I receptor at and PLC-gamma was not evident. p85, Syp, and GAP are potential modulators of IGF-I receptor signal transduction.

Rapid activation of phospholipase C (PLC) with a resultant increase in phosphatidylinositol hydrolysis occurs after aggregation of the high affinity receptor for IgE (Fc epsilon RI) on the surface of mast cells. We previously described an increase in PLC activity associated with the particulate fraction of rat basophilic leukemia (RBL) cells after Fc epsilon RI aggregation, and this redistribution of enzyme activity correlated with an increase in immunoreactivity of the gamma 1 isozyme of PLC in the particulate fraction by Western blot analysis (J. Immunol. 148:2194-2200, 1992). We now report that the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor orthovanadate mimics Fc epsilon RI-mediated activation of PLC-gamma 1 in RBL cells after permeabilization with Staphylococcus aureus alpha-toxin. Orthovanadate treatment of permeabilized cells induced: 1) a large increase in phosphoinositide hydrolysis in endogenously labeled cells; 2) an increase in PLC activity associated with the particulate fraction; and 3) an increase in immunoreactivity of PLC-gamma 1 in Western blots of the particulate fraction. In addition, incubation of RBL cells with either oligomeric IgE or orthovanadate results in the translocation of PLC-gamma 2 from the cytosol to the particulate fraction. All of the above effects were qualitatively similar to those seen after Fc epsilon RI aggregation. These data suggest that translocation and activation of PLC in mast cells are controlled by tyrosine phosphorylation of either the enzyme itself or some regulatory component. The equilibrium can be shifted to the phosphorylated state during either receptor-mediated activation of a tyrosine kinase or by blockade of dephosphorylation.

Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a heparin-binding polypeptide which shares structural domains with enzymes of the blood clotting cascade. HGF/SF is secreted by cells of mesodermal origin and has powerful mitogenic, motogenic and morphogenic activity on epithelial and endothelial cells. HGF/SF is produced as a biologically inactive single-chain precursor (pro-HGF/SF) most of which is sequestered on the cell surface or bound to the extracellular matrix. Maturation into the active alpha beta heterodimer results from proteolytic cleavage by a urokinase-type protease, which acts as a pro-HGF/SF convertase. The primary determinant for receptor binding appears to be located within the alpha-chain. The interaction of the alpha-chain with the receptor is sufficient for the activation of the signal cascade involved in the motility response. However, the complete HGF/SF protein seems to be required to elicit a mitogenic response. HGF/SF binds with high affinity to a transmembrane receptor, p190MET, encoded by the MET proto-oncogene. p190MET is the prototype of a distinct subfamily of heterodimeric tyrosine kinases, including the putative receptors Ron and Sea. The mature form of p190MET is a heterodimer of two disulfide-linked subunits (alpha and beta). The alpha-subunit is extracellular and heavily glycosylated. The beta-subunit consists of an extracellular portion involved in ligand binding, a membrane spanning segment, and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. Both subunits derive from glycosylation and proteolytic cleavage of a common precursor of 170 kDa. In polarized epithelial cells the HGF/SF receptor is selectively exposed in the basolateral plasmalemma, where it is associated with detergent-insoluble components. Two Met isoforms, carrying an intact ligand binding domain but lacking the kinase domain due to truncation of the beta-subunit, arise from alternative post-transcriptional processing of the mature form. One truncated form is soluble and released from the cells. HGF/SF binding triggers tyrosine autophosphorylation of the receptor beta-subunit. Autophosphorylation on the major phosphorylation site Y1235 upregulates the kinase activity of the receptor, increasing the Vmax of the phosphotransfer reaction. Negative regulation of the kinase activity occurs through phosphorylation of a unique serine residue (S985) located in the juxtamembrane domain of the receptor. This phosphorylation is triggered by two distinct pathways involving either protein kinase C activation or increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Upon ligand binding, the HGF/SF receptor recruits and activates several cytoplasmic effectors, including phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-K), phospholipase C-gamma (PLC-gamma), pp60c-Src, a tyrosine phosphatase, and a Ras-guanine nucleotide exchanger.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

The metalion vanadate has insulin-like effects and has been advocated for use in humans as a therapeutic modality for diabetes mellitus. However, since vanadate is a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, it may result in undesirable activation of target cells. We studied the effect of vanadate on human mesangial cells, an important target in diabetic nephropathy. Vanadate stimulated DNA synthesis and PDGF B chain gene expression. Vanadate also inhibited total tyrosine phosphatase activity and stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of a set of cellular proteins. Two chemically and mechanistically dissimilar tyrosine kinase inhibitors, genistein and herbimycin A, blocked DNA synthesis induced by vanadate. Vanadate also stimulated phospholipase C and protein kinase C. Downregulation of protein kinase C abolished vanadate-induced DNA synthesis. Thus, vanadate-induced mitogenesis is dependent on tyrosine kinases and protein kinase C activation. The most likely mechanism for the effect of vanadate on these diverse processes involves the inhibition of cellular phosphotyrosine phosphatases. These studies demonstrating that vanadate activates mesangial cells may have major implications for the therapeutic potential of vanadate administration in diabetes. Although vanadate exerts beneficial insulin-like effects and potentiates the effect of insulin in sensitive tissue, it may result in undesirable activation of other target cells, such as mesangial cells.

Ganglioside (GM1) modulation of CD4 off the surface of T lymphocytes defined functions of the CD4 molecule during signal transduction through the T cell receptor (TCR)/CD3 complex. Antibody cross-linking of CD3 alone (3 x 3) stimulated phospholipase C (PLC) activity, rapid Ca2+ flux, and protein phosphorylations in freshly isolated human T lymphocytes. Antibody cross-linking of CD4 and CD3 (3 x 4) stimulated greater signaling than that caused by 3 x 3. Cross-linking CD4 alone did not stimulate these signaling processes. GM1-modulation of CD4 from the cell surface blocked all aspects of the augmented signaling imparted by CD4 co-modulation with CD3. In comparison, pretreatment with the protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein inhibited 3 x 4-stimulated PLC activity and protein phosphorylation but not Ca2+ flux. Antibody cross-linking of the tyrosine phosphatase CD45 with 3 x 4 (3 x 4 x 45) also inhibited CD4-augmented phosphorylations and like genistein did not reduce Ca2+ levels. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that CD4 can augment signal transduction through the TCR/CD3 complex by its physical proximity to CD3. TCR/CD3-signaling augmentation by CD4 stimulated protein tyrosine kinases and PLC activities but stimulated intracellular Ca2+ flux through an independent mechanism(s).

The roles of gastrin and sodium vanadate in proliferation were examined in cultured IEC-6 cells that are mitotically active and derived originally from jejunal crypts of the rat intestine. Incubation of the cells in the presence of gastrin at a concentration of 250 ng/ml or of sodium vanadate at a concentration of 0.2 mM leads to a 60% increase in cell growth in 24 hr. The stimulated growth in both cases was inhibited by genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Incubation in the presence of gastrin and sodium vanadate together produced a small, albeit significant, potentiation of growth of the cells. Gastrin as well as sodium vanadate also promoted the phosphorylation on tyrosine of a similar group of proteins with molecular masses of 42, 45, 52, 60, 78, and 120 kDa. The phosphorylations were rapidly occurring as early as 5 min and lasted for only 15 min. Several proteins were detected in normal IEC-6 cells, including GTPase activating protein, raf1 kinase, phospholipase C gamma-1, and phosphoinositide 3-kinase. The results suggest that gastrin and sodium vanadate induce growth of IEC-6 cells by stimulation of tyrosine kinase and/or inhibition of tyrosine phosphatase. The gastrin and sodium vanadate effects also involve the phosphorylation of a number of proteins, the identities of which are not known at present but may include some of the kinases that are frequently associated with cell growth, such as mitogen-activated protein kinase, raf1 kinase, phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and others.
