Conventional mode of activation of SH2 domain-containing phosphatase 1 (SHP-1) by a single transmembrane (TM) inhibitory receptor such as killer cell inhibitory receptor, Fcgamma receptor type IIb1, and paired Ig-like receptors of inhibitory types requires tyrosine phosphorylation of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory (ITIM) motifs in the cytoplasmic domains of the inhibitory receptors. Contrary to this paradigm, AT(2), a G protein-coupled 7TM receptor that does not undergo tyrosine phosphorylation in response to angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulation, also activates SHP-1. Here we show that SHP-1 constitutively and physically associates with AT(2) receptor in transfected COS-7 cells. On stimulation by Ang II, SHP-1 becomes activated and dissociated from AT(2) receptor, independent of pertussis toxin. Cotransfection of transducin G(betagamma) inhibits SHP-1/AT(2) association and the SHP-1 activation, whereas cotransfection of C-terminal of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, which abrogates G(betagamma) signaling, facilitates SHP-1 activation. Surprisingly, SHP-1/AT(2) association and the SHP-1 activation requires the presence of G(alphas) as shown by differential coimmunoprecipitation, dominant negative G(alphas), constitutively active G(alphas), and G(alpha) peptides. A mutant AT(2) receptor D141A-R142L that is inactive in G(alpha) protein activation constitutively associates with SHP-1 and activates it. Together, these results indicate that G(alphas) alone, rather than exclusively in the form of G(alphabetagamma) heterotrimer may facilitate signal transduction for G protein-coupled receptors, suggesting a novel mechanism distinct from the classic paradigm of heterotrimeric G proteins. The AT(2)-mediated ITIM-independent activation of SHP-1 that is distinct from the conventional mode of activation, may represent a general paradigm for activation of SHP-1/2-class tyrosine phosphatases by G protein-coupled receptors.

Adenosine activates four different receptors, the A(1), A(2A), A(2B), and the A(3) receptors, all of which are G protein-coupled. We have previously shown that stimulation of the human adenosine A(3) receptor can induce phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2). Here we show that the adenosine receptor agonist 5' N-ethylcarboxamidoadenosine (NECA) induces phosphorylation and activation of ERK1/2 in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the human adenosine A(3) receptor (CHO A(3) cells) with the same potency. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin abolished the effect, which also could be blunted by overexpressing the betagamma-sequestering peptide beta-adrenergic receptor kinase-ct, implicating the involvement of betagamma subunits released from G(i/o) proteins. Activation of phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) by adenosine A(3) receptors is inferred from a dose-dependent Ser-phosphorylation of the protein kinase B (Akt). Furthermore the ERK1/2 phosphorylation was sensitive to the PI3K inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 (2-(4-morpholinyl)-8-phenyl-1(4H)-benzopyran-4-one hydrochloride) and the MEK inhibitor PD98059 (2'-amino-3'-methoxyflavone), whereas chelation of Ca(2+) with 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetrakis (acetoxymethyl ester) and long-term treatment with phorboldibutyrate did not decrease the adenosine A(3) receptor-mediated ERK1/2 phosphorylation. Thus, Ca(2+) mobilization and conventional and novel protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms are not involved in this pathway. The atypical PKCzeta was not activated by NECA and thus not involved in the A(3) receptor-mediated ERK1/2 phosphorylation. NECA stimulation of CHO A(3) cells activated the small G protein Ras and the dominant negative mutant RasS17N prevented the phosphorylation of ERK1/2. In conclusion, the adenosine A(3) receptor recruits a pathway that involves betagamma release from G(i/o), PI3K, Ras, and MEK to induce ERK1/2 phosphorylation and activation, whereas signaling is independent of Ca(2+), PKC, and c-Src.

We have recently shown that a heterotrimeric G(i) protein is coupled to the erythropoietin (Epo) receptor. The G(i) protein constitutively associates in its heterotrimeric form with the intracellular domain of Epo receptor (EpoR). After Epo stimulation G(i) is released from the receptor and activated. In the present study we have investigated the functional role of the heterotrimeric G(i) protein bound to EpoR. In Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing EpoR, the G(i) inhibitor pertussis toxin blocked mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) Erk1/2 activation induced by Epo. Epo-dependent MAPK activation was also sensitive to the G beta gamma competitive inhibitor beta ARK1-ct (C-terminal fragment of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase), to the Ras dominant negative mutant RasN17, and to the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor LY 294002. A region of 7 amino acids (469-475) in the C-terminal end of EpoR was shown to be required for G(i) binding to EpoR in vivo. Deletion of this region in EpoR abolished both MAPK and PI3K activation in response to Epo. We conclude that in Chinese hamster ovary cells, Epo activates MAPK via a novel pathway dependent on G(i) association to EpoR, G beta gamma subunit, Ras, and PI3K. The tyrosine kinase Jak2 also contributes to this new pathway, more likely downstream of beta gamma and upstream of Ras and PI3K. This pathway is similar to the best characterized pathway used by seven transmembrane receptors coupled to G(i) to activate MAPK and may cooperate with other described Epo-dependent MAPK activation pathways in hematopoietic cells.

(1) We examined A3 adenosine and CB1 cannabinoid receptor-coupled signaling pathways regulating Cl(-) current in a human nonpigmented ciliary epithelial (NPCE) cell line. (2) Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings demonstrated that the A3 receptor agonist, IB-MECA, activates an outwardly rectifying Cl(-)current (I(Cl,Aden)) in NPCE cells, which was inhibited by the adenosine receptor antagonist, CGS-15943 or by the protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12,13 dibutyrate (PDBu). (3) Treatment of NPCE cells with pertussis-toxin (PTX), or transfection with the COOH-terminus of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (ct-betaARK), inhibited I(Cl,Aden). The phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor, wortmannin, had no effect on I(Cl,Aden); however, the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor, PD98059, inhibited I(Cl,Aden). (4) Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction experiments and immunocytochemistry confirmed mRNA and protein expression for the CB1 receptor in NPCE cells, and the CB1 receptor agonist, Win 55,212-2, activated a PDBu-sensitive Cl(-) current (I(Cl,Win)). (5) Transfection of NPCE cells with the human CB1 (hCB1) receptor, increased I(Cl,Win), consistent with increased receptor expression, and I(Cl,Win) in hCB1 receptor-transfected cells was decreased after application of a CB1 receptor inverse agonist, SR 141716. (6) Constitutive activity for CB1 receptors was not significant in NPCE cells as transfection with hCB1 receptors did not increase basal Cl(-) current, nor was basal current inhibited by SR 141716. (7) I(Cl,Win) was inhibited by PTX preincubation, by transfection with ct-betaARK and by the MEK inhibitor, PD98059, but unaffected by the PI3K inhibitor, wortmannin. (8) We conclude that both A3 and CB1 receptors activate a PKC-sensitive Cl(-) current in human NPCE cells via a G(i/o)/Gbetagamma signaling pathway, in a manner independent of PI3K but involving MAPK.

The mechanisms by which oxytocin (OT) stimulates extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) are only partially understood. OT receptor (OTR) signals predominantly through Galpha(q), but ERK1/2 phosphorylation (ERK1/2-P) in PHM1 myometrial cells was not eliminated by inhibition of downstream effectors such as phospholipase C or protein kinase C. Inconsistent with a Galpha(i)-coupled response, pertussis toxin inhibition of OT-induced ERK1/2-P was reversed by the protein kinase A inhibitors Rp-cAMPS and KT5720. Consistent with an inhibitory role for protein kinase A, pertussis toxin pretreatment raised cellular cAMP and 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP inhibited OT-induced ERK1/2-P. Attenuation of the OT response by the Gbetagamma scavenger carboxyl terminus of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase implicated a Gbetagamma-mediated pathway. In both COSM6 cells overexpressing OTR (OTR-COSM6) and in PHM1 cells, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG1478 markedly reduced OT-induced ERK1/2-P, whereas the platelet-derived growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG1296 had no effect. Furthermore, OT increased EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation in OTR-COSM6 cells, which was inhibited by AG1478 or EGTA plus thapsigargin pretreatment. AG1478 did not affect inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate production by OT or protein kinase C-stimulated ERK1/2-P but completely blocked ionomycin-induced ERK1/2-P and EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation. In both OTR-COSM6 and PHM1 cells, EGTA reduced OT-stimulated ERK1/2-P; no ERK1/2-P was observed when intracellular calcium increases were blocked by pretreatment with thapsigargin plus EGTA. These data are consistent with activation of a Gbetagamma-mediated pathway as a consequence of Galpha(q) activation in myometrium and OTR-COSM6 cells that results in increased ERK1/2-P. This pathway involves both EGFR activation and an influence of calcium.

Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) induces alpha(1B)-adrenoceptor phosphorylation through pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase C (PKC). Here we showed that transfection of the carboxyl terminus of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (betaARK) or the Deltap85 mutant of PI3K markedly decreased the alpha(1B)-adrenoceptor phosphorylation induced by LPA without decreasing the receptor phosphorylations induced by active phorbol esters or noradrenaline. In addition, it was observed that inhibitors of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase and of metalloproteinases and an anti-heparin binding-EGF antibody also diminish LPA-induced phosphorylation; such partial inhibitions were not additive, indicating that they occur through a common process. Our data indicate that stimulation of LPA receptors activates pertussis-toxin-sensitive G proteins. Dissociated Gbetagamma subunits initiate two processes: one of them involving activation of metalloproteinases, heparin binding-EGF shedding and transactivation of EGF receptors and another independent of these events. Both processes triggered PI3K activity, which lead to activation of PKC and this to alpha(1B)-adrenoceptor phosphorylation. This is the first demonstration of a role of EGF receptor transactivation in the phosphorylation of a G protein-coupled receptor.

Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) has been implicated in beta2-adrenergic receptor (beta2-AR)/G(i)-mediated compartmentation of the concurrent G(s)-cAMP signaling, negating beta2-AR-induced phospholamban phosphorylation and the positive inotropic and lusitropic responses in cardiomyocytes. However, it is unclear whether PI3K crosstalks with the beta1-AR signal transduction, and even more generally, with the cAMP/PKA pathway. In this study, we show that selective beta1-AR stimulation markedly increases PI3K activity in adult rat cardiomyocytes. Inhibition of PI3K by LY294002 significantly enhances beta1-AR-induced increases in L-type Ca2+ currents, intracellular Ca2+ transients, and myocyte contractility, without altering the receptor-mediated phosphorylation of phospholamban. The LY294002 potentiating effects are completely prevented by betaARK-ct, a peptide inhibitor of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase-1 (betaARK1) as well as G(betagamma) signaling, but not by disrupting G(i) function with pertussis toxin. Moreover, forskolin, an adenylyl cyclase activator, also elevates PI3K activity and inhibition of PI3K enhances forskolin-induced contractile response in a betaARK-ct sensitive manner. In contrast, PI3K inhibition affects neither the basal contractility nor high extracellular Ca2+-induced increase in myocyte contraction. These results suggest that beta1-AR stimulation activates PI3K via a PKA-dependent mechanism, and that G(betagamma) and the subsequent activation of betaARK1 are critically involved in the PKA-induced PI3K signaling which, in turn, negates cAMP-induced positive inotropic effect via inhibiting sarcolemmal Ca2+ influx and the subsequent increase in intracellular Ca2+ transients, without altering the receptor-mediated phospholamban phosphorylation, in intact cardiomyocytes.

Agonist activation regulates reciprocal interactions of spinophilin and arrestin with the alpha2A- and alpha2B -adrenergic receptor (AR) subtypes via their 3i loop. Because arrestin association with G protein-coupled receptor is preceded by redistribution of arrestin to the cell surface, the present studies explored whether agonist activation of the alpha2A- and alpha2B -AR subtypes also led to spinophilin enrichment at the cell surface. Live cell imaging studies using a green fluorescent protein-tagged spinophilin examined spinophilin localization and its regulation by alpha2 -AR agonist. Agonist activation of alpha2A-AR preferentially, compared with the alpha2B-AR, led to spinophilin enrichment at the cell surface in human embryonic kidney 293 cells and in mouse embryo fibroblasts derived from spinophilin null mice. Activation of the delta LEESSSS alpha2A-AR, which has enriched association with spinophilin compared with the wild-type (WT) alpha2A-AR, does not show an enhanced redistribution of spinophilin to the surface compared with WT alpha2A-AR, demonstrating that the ability or affinity of the receptor in binding spinophilin may be independent of the ability of the receptor to effect spinophilin redistribution to the surface. Agonist-evoked enrichment of spinophilin at the cell surface seems to involve downstream signaling events, manifested both by the pertussis toxin sensitivity of the process and by the marked attenuation of spinophilin redistribution in cells expressing the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase-C tail, which sequesters beta gamma subunits of G proteins. Together, the data suggest that agonist-evoked spinophilin enrichment at the cell surface is caused by receptor-evoked signaling pathways and is independent of the affinity of the receptor for the spinophilin molecule.

Purkinje cell protein-2 (Pcp2 or L7) is highly expressed in cerebellar Purkinje cells and retinal bipolar neurons and interacts with the Galpha(i/o) family of G-proteins. Although the expression pattern of Pcp2 in the developing central nervous system suggests a role in differentiation, its function remains unknown. We established Tet-off inducible expression of Pcp2 in PC12 cells (rat pheochromocytoma cells) to determine whether Pcp2 regulates neuronal differentiation. Utilizing a polyclonal antibody, Pcp2 was localized in the cell body and throughout neurites of differentiated PC12 cells, similar to its localization in cerebellar Purkinje cells. Pcp2 expression in PC12 cells stimulated process formation (5-fold) and NGF (nerve growth factor)-stimulated neurite length (2-fold). Under basal conditions, Pcp2-PC12 cells demonstrated a 5-fold increase in Ras activation relative to non-induced PC12 cells and there was no change in extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activity with Pcp2 expression. However, Pcp2 induction led to a >3-fold increase in basal p38 MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) activity and the addition of NGF significantly stimulated both Ras and p38 MAPK in Pcp2-PC12 cells relative to the controls. Pretreatment of Pcp2-PC12 cells with the p38-specific inhibitor SB203580 blocked both the increased neurite formation and NGF-stimulated neurite growth. Pertussis toxin treatment had no effect on neurite growth in control cells, but completely blocked Pcp2-mediated increased neurite growth. Transient transfection of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase C-terminus to prevent signalling through Gbetagamma in Pcp2-PC12 cells also inhibited the Pcp2-induced phenotype and reduced the Pcp2-stimulated Ras activation. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that Pcp2 induces differentiation in PC12 cells, in part through Gbetagamma-mediated Ras and p38 MAPK activation and suggest the potential for similar signalling mechanisms in Purkinje cells.

IGF-I induces alpha(1B)-adrenoceptor (alpha(1B)-AR) phosphorylation. The effect of IGF-I was rapid and transient, reaching near-maximal values at 10 min and decreasing after 30 min; it was observed at low IGF-I concentrations (EC(50) approximately 10 ng/ml) and was associated to receptor desensitization as evidenced by a decreased alpha(1B)-adrenergic effect on intracellular calcium and production of inositol phosphates. The effect of IGF-I was markedly decreased in cells treated with pertussis toxin suggesting involvement of pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins. Transfection of the carboxyl terminus of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase or the Deltap85 mutant of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) markedly decreased the alpha(1B)-AR phosphorylation induced by IGF-I without decreasing the receptor phosphorylation induced by noradrenaline. Inhibitors of PI3K and protein kinase C blocked IGF-I-induced alpha(1B)-AR phosphorylation. In addition, it was observed that AG1478, an inhibitor of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor kinase, and BB-94, a metalloproteinase inhibitor, also diminished IGF-I-induced adrenoceptor phosphorylation. The data clearly show that IGF-I triggers a complex signaling pathway, which leads to the phosphorylation and desensitization of a serpentine G protein-coupled receptor, suggesting the following hypothetical model: 1) stimulation of IGF-I receptors activate pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins; 2) the growth factor action activates metalloproteinases, which catalyze heparin binding-EGF shedding, and transactivation of EGF receptors, and 3) dissociated Gbetagamma subunits and phosphotyrosine residues seem to trigger PI3K activity, which leads to activation of protein kinase C, resulting in alpha(1B)-AR phosphorylation and desensitization.
