Angiotensin II (Ang II) and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) stimulate intracellular signaling events through binding to their respective G-protein-coupled and growth factor receptors. In rat aortic vascular smooth muscle cells, IGF I (20 ng/ml) induced a sustained (>30 min) increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of both Src-homology 2 domain-docking insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) and Src-homology 2-binding tyrosine phosphatase 1D (PTP-1D). In addition, IGF I stimulated PTP-1D phosphatase activity. Ang II (10(-7) M) also increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 (4-fold), PTP-1D (5-fold), and PTP-1D activity (3-4-fold), but with a more transient time course. Ang II also induced PTP-1D.IRS-1 complex formation. These Ang II-induced events were not affected by preincubation with an anti-IGF I antibody, suggesting that Ang II's actions were not mediated via the autocrine secretion of IGF I. Anti-PTP-1D antibody electroporation attenuated Ang II-induced PTP-1D.IRS-1 complex formation and PTP-1D tyrosine phosphorylation and activation. Our findings show that the tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and PTP-1D represents a convergent intracellular signaling cascade stimulated by both growth factor (i.e. IGF I) and G-protein-coupled (i.e. AT1) receptors.

An early event in signaling by the G-protein-coupled angiotensin II (Ang II) AT1 receptor in vascular smooth muscle cells is the tyrosine phosphorylation and activation of phospholipase Cgamma1 (PLCgamma1). In the present study, we show that stimulation of this event by Ang II in vascular smooth muscle cells is accompanied by binding of PLCgamma1 to the AT1 receptor in an Ang II- and tyrosine phophorylation-dependent manner. The PLCgamma1-AT1 receptor interaction appears to depend on phosphorylation of tyrosine 319 in a YIPP motif in the C-terminal intracellular domain of the AT1 receptor and binding of the phosphorylated receptor by the most C-terminal of two Src homology 2 domains in PLCgamma1. PLCgamma1 thus binds to the same site in the receptor previously identified for binding by the SHP-2 phosphotyrosine phosphatase.JAK2 tyrosine kinase complex. A single site in the C-terminal tail of the AT1 receptor can, therefore, be bound in a ligand-dependent manner by two different downstream effector proteins. These data demonstrate that G-protein-coupled receptors can physically associate with intracellular proteins other than G proteins, creating membrane-delimited signal transduction complexes similar to those observed for classic growth factor receptors.

Angiotensin II (ANG II) exerts its effects on vascular smooth muscle cells through G protein-coupled AT1 receptors. ANG II stimulation activates the Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway by inducing tyrosine phosphorylation, activation, and association of JAK2 with the receptor. Association appears to be required for JAK2 phosphorylation. In the present study, electroporation experiments with neutralizing anti-Src homology phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) and anti-SHP-2 antibodies and time course determinations of SHP-1 and SHP-2 activation and complexation with JAK2 suggest that the tyrosine phosphatases, SHP-1 and SHP-2, have opposite roles in ANG II-induced JAK2 phosphorylation. SHP-1 appears responsible for JAK2 dephosphorylation and termination of the ANG II-induced JAK/STAT cascade. SHP-2 appears to have an essential role in JAK2 phosphorylation and initiation of the ANG II-induced JAK/STAT cascade leading to cell proliferation. The motif in the AT1 receptor that is required for association with JAK2 is also required for association with SHP-2. Furthermore, SHP-2 is required for JAK2-receptor association. SHP-2 may thus play a role as an adaptor protein for JAK2 association with the receptor, thereby facilitating JAK2 phosphorylation and activation.

Although tyrosine kinases are critically involved in the angiotensin II (Ang II) type 1 (AT1) receptor signaling, how AT1 receptors activate tyrosine kinases is not fully understood. We examined the structural requirements of the AT1 receptor for transactivation of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR). Studies using carboxyl terminal-truncated AT1 receptors indicated that the amino acid sequence between 312 and 337 is required for activation of EGFR. The role of the conserved YIPP motif in this sequence in transactivation of EGFR was investigated by mutating tyrosine 319. Ang II failed to activate EGFR in cells expressing AT1-Y319F, whereas EGFR was activated even without Ang II in cells expressing AT1-Y319E, which mimics the AT1 receptor phosphorylated at Tyr-319. Immunoblot analyses using anti-phospho Tyr-319-specific antibody showed that Ang II increased phosphorylation of Tyr-319. EGFR interacted with the AT1 receptor but not with AT1-Y319F in response to Ang II stimulation, whereas the EGFR-AT1 receptor interaction was inhibited in the presence of dominant negative SHP-2. The requirement of Tyr-319 seems specific for EGFR because Ang II-induced activation of other tyrosine kinases, including Src and JAK2, was preserved in cells expressing AT1-Y319F. Extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation was also maintained in AT1-Y319F through activation of Src. Overexpression of wild type AT1 receptor in cardiac fibroblasts enhanced Ang II-induced proliferation. By contrast, overexpression of AT1-Y319F failed to enhance cell proliferation. In summary, Tyr-319 of the AT1 receptor is phosphorylated in response to Ang II and plays a key role in mediating Ang II-induced transactivation of EGFR and cell proliferation, possibly through its interaction with SHP-2 and EGFR.

Previous work has suggested that the protein tyrosine phosphatase, SHP-2, may act to facilitate angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated, Jak2-dependent signaling. However, the mechanisms by which this occurs are not known. Here, Ang II-mediated, Jak2-dependent signaling was analyzed in a fibroblast cell line lacking the N-terminal, SH2 domain of SHP-2 (SHP-2(Delta46-110)). While the SHP-2(Delta46-110) cells were capable of activating Jak2 tyrosine kinase, they were unable to facilitate AT1 receptor/Jak2 co-association, STAT activation and subsequent Ang II-mediated gene transcription when compared to wild type control cells. These data therefore suggested that the N-terminal SH2 domain of SHP-2 was acting to recruit Jak2 to the AT1 receptor signaling complex. We found that the N-terminal SH2 domain of SHP-2 binds Jak2 predominantly, but not exclusively at tyrosine 201. Mass spectrometry analysis confirmed that this tyrosine residue is in fact phosphorylated. When this tyrosine was converted to phenylalanine, the ability of Jak2 to activate subsequent downstream signaling events was reduced. In summary, we have identified a novel site of Jak2 tyrosine autophosphorylation; namely, tyrosine 201. Our data suggest that the N-terminal SH2 domain of SHP-2 binds this amino acid residue. The functional consequence of this interaction is to recruit Jak2 to the AT1 receptor signaling complex and in turn promote downstream Jak2-dependent signaling.

The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the effects of arsenic trioxide (ATO) on human acute promyelocytic leukemia NB-4 cells. Microculture tetrazolium test, bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) cell proliferation assay, caspase 3 activity assay, cell-based nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) phosphorylation measurement by ELISA and real-time RT-PCR were employed to appraise the effects of ATO on metabolic activity, DNA synthesis, induction of programmed cell death and NF-kappaB activation. The suppressive effects of ATO on metabolic potential, cell proliferation and NF-kappaB activation were associated with induction of apoptosis in NB-4 cells. In addition, an expressive enhancement in mRNA levels of p73, cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21), tumor protein 53-induced nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1), WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 2 (WNK2) and lipocalin 2 coupled with a significant reduction in transcriptional levels of NF-kappaB inhibitor beta (IKK2), Nemo, BCL2-like 1 (BCL-X(L)), inhibitor of apoptosis protein 1 (cIAP2), X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP), survivin, Bcl-2, TIP60, ataxia telangiectasia (ATM), SHP-2 and sirtuin (SIRT1) were observed. Altogether, these issues show for the first time that ATO treatment could trammel cell growth and proliferation as well as induces apoptosis in NB-4 cells through induction of transcriptional levels of p73, TP53INP1, WNK2, lipocalin 2 as well as suppression of NF-kappaB-mediated induction of BCL-X(L), cIAP2, XIAP and survivin. Furthermore, the inductionary effects of ATO on transcriptional stimulation of p73 might be through cramping the NF-kappaB module (through suppression of p65 phosphorylation as well as transcriptional hindering of IKK2, ATM and Nemo) along with diminishing the mRNA expression of TIP60, SHP-2 and SIRT1.
