Erythropoietin mediates the rapid phosphorylation of Raf-1 in the murine cell lines HCD-57 and FDC-P1/ER, which proliferate in response to this cytokine. Phosphorylation occurs at both serine and tyrosine residues and as such is similar to the Raf-1 phosphorylation seen after interleukin-3 (IL-3), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and interleukin-2 stimulation in other murine cell lines. Such data suggest that these growth factors may share a common mechanism(s) of Raf-1 phosphorylation. Furthermore, in association with Raf-1 phosphorylation, erythropoietin induces a 2-3-fold increase in Raf-1 kinase activity as measured in immune complex kinase assays in vitro. Finally, a c-raf antisense oligodeoxyribonucleotide, which specifically decreases intracellular Raf-1 levels, also substantially inhibits both erythropoietin and IL-3-directed DNA synthesis. Together, these results provide evidence that activated Raf-1 is a necessary component of erythropoietin and IL-3 growth signaling pathways.

Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a cytokine that expresses its biological effects by binding to specific membrane receptors. Although the diverse biological properties of this molecule have been characterized extensively the biochemical mechanisms by which extracellular binding events lead to biological responses remain unclear. IL-4 can stimulate the proliferation of several hemopoietic cell types, and we have taken advantage of its ability to induce the growth of leukemic cell lines to investigate the role that protein phosphorylation events might play in IL-4 mitogenic signal transduction. We show that the addition of IL-4 to several leukemic cell lines of different origin causes the rapid dephosphorylation of an 80-kDa phosphoprotein (p80) from tyrosine residues. This event occurs in a dose-responsive manner closely correlating to that of biological activity, and both are blocked by an anti-IL-4-specific antiserum. The ability of sodium orthovanadate to prevent IL-4-induced dephosphorylation of p80 suggests that this event is mediated by a protein-tyrosine-phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.48). The importance of the role that tyrosine-specific dephosphorylation plays in mediating IL-4 mitogenic signal transduction is substantiated by the ability of sodium orthovanadate in cell culture to block effectively IL-4-induced proliferation at doses that enhance the proliferation stimulated by either granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor or interleukin-3.

Human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) exert multiple effects on the proliferation, differentiation, and function of myeloid lineage cells through their interaction with specific cell-surface receptors. There is a considerable degree of overlap in the biological effects of these two growth factors, but little is known about the mechanisms of postreceptor signal transduction. We have investigated the effects of GM-CSF and IL-3 on protein tyrosine-kinase activity in a human cell line, MO7E, which proliferates in response to either factor. Tyrosine-kinase activity was detected using immunoblotting with a monoclonal antibody (MoAb) specific for phosphotyrosine. GM-CSF and IL-3 were found to induce a nearly identical pattern of protein tyrosine phosphorylation using both one- and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Tyrosine phosphorylation of two cytosolic proteins in particular was increased more than 10-fold, a 93-Kd protein (pp93) and a 70-Kd protein (pp70). Tyrosine phosphorylation of pp93 and pp70 was observed within 1 minute, reached a maximum at 5 to 15 minutes, and gradually decreased thereafter. Other proteins of 150, 125, 63, 55, 42, and 36 Kd were also phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to both GM-CSF and IL-3, although to a lesser degree. Tyrosine phosphorylation was dependent on the concentration of GM-CSF over the range of 0.1 to 10 ng/mL and on IL-3 over the range of 1 to 30 ng/mL. Stimulation of MO7E cells with 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or cytokines such as G-CSF, M-CSF, interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interferon gamma, tumor necrosis factor (TNF), or transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of pp93 or pp70, suggesting that these two phosphoproteins are specific for GM-CSF-or IL-3-induced activation. The extent and duration of phosphorylation of all the substrates were increased by pretreatment of cells with vanadate, an inhibitor of protein-tyrosine phosphatases. Importantly, culture of MO7E cells with vanadate (up to 10 mumol/L) resulted in a dose-dependent increase in GM-CSF-or IL-3-induced proliferation of up to 1.8-fold. These results suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation may be important for GM-CSF and IL-3 receptor-mediated signal transduction and that cell proliferation may be, at least partially, regulated by a balance between CSF-induced protein-tyrosine kinase activity and protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity.

The addition of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to human neutrophils causes a rapid increase in the basal and fMet-Leu-Phe-stimulated Na+ influx and an increase in intracellular pH. The increase can be seen as early as 5 min after the addition of GM-CSF. Changes produced by GM-CSF are totally inhibited by amiloride and are significantly reduced in pertussis toxin-treated cells. The stimulation of the Na+/H+ exchange mechanism by GM-CSF inhibits further stimulation of this system with either fMet-Leu-Phe or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. In addition, membrane preparations isolated from GM-CSF-treated neutrophils have higher basal and stimulated GTPase activities. The basal and the fMet-Leu-Phe- or platelet-activating factor-stimulated GTPase activities are reduced in pertussis toxin-treated cells. Cells pretreated with GM-CSF accumulate more radioactive phosphate than control cells, and this increase is diminished by pertussis toxin treatment. In addition, GM-CSF causes a rapid increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation levels of five proteins with molecular masses of 118 kDa, 92 kDa, 78 kDa, 54 kDa, and 40 kDa. These results clearly show that GM-CSF, on its own, can initiate several changes and that these changes are mediated in part by the pertussis toxin-sensitive guanine nucleotide regulatory protein.

We demonstrated that 125I-labeled human parathyroid hormone (1-34;8,18-Nle,34-Tyr)[[125I]hPTH(1-34)] bound specifically to hemopoietic blast cells supported by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Half-maximal inhibition of binding was achieved at concentrations of unlabeled hPTH(1-34) of about 5 x 10(-9)M. Insulin and hPTH(39-68) did not compete for PTH binding sites. Specific binding of hPTH(1-34) was detected in neither macrophages nor multinucleated cells (MNC's). Furthermore, treatment of hemopoietic blast cells with hPTH(1-34) stimulated MNC formation, and the range of concentrations (10(-10)-10(-8)M) over which hPTH(1-34) caused these effects was similar to that which inhibited the binding of [125I]hPTH(1-34). These findings suggest the presence of a PTH receptor on osteoclast precursors and the direct effect of PTH on them, resulting in osteoclast-mediated bone resorption.

The mechanism of action of the hemopoietic growth factor, murine interleukin-3 (mIL-3), was investigated using an mIL-3-dependent multipotential hematopoietic cell line, B6SUtA1. Murine granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (mGM-CSF) was as potent as mIL-3 in stimulating these cells. In addition, sodium orthovanadate, an inhibitor of phosphotyrosine phosphatase, and 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), a known activator of protein kinase C, also stimulated DNA synthesis in these cells, suggesting that protein phosphorylation might be involved in the mechanism of action of mIL-3 and mGM-CSF. To assess this possibility, intact B6SUtA1 cells exposed for brief periods to mIL-3, mGM-CSF, and TPA were analyzed for changes in phosphorylation patterns using metabolic 32P-labeling and antibodies to phosphotyrosine. Both mIL-3 and mGM-CSF induced the serine-specific phosphorylation of a 68-Kd cytosolic protein, whereas all three agents stimulated the serine-specific phosphorylation of a 68-Kd membrane protein. Furthermore, mIL-3 stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of the 68-Kd membrane protein, as well as of 140-, 90-, 55, and 40-Kd proteins. The 90-Kd protein was also tyrosine phosphorylated in response to mGM-CSF. These phosphotyrosine containing proteins were not detected in TPA-treated cells. These results indicate that protein phosphorylations on tyrosine and serine residues occur in B6SUtA1 cells following short-term incubation with mIL-3 or mGM-CSF and that most of these phosphorylation events are mediated by kinases other than protein kinase C (PkC).

Colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) is a glycoprotein growth factor that specifically regulates the survival, proliferation and differentiation of mononuclear phagocytes and their precursors via a cell surface receptor selectively expressed on these cell types. The purified receptor is a single glycosylated polypeptide, Mr 165 000, which exhibits CSF-1-dependent autophosphorylation in tyrosine. CSF-1 alone regulates cells of the mononuclear phagocytic series (CSF-1-dependent colony-forming unit [CFU-C]----monoblast----promonocyte----monocyte----macrophage). However, the presence of a multipotent haemopoietic cell growth factor, haemopoietin-1, permits CSF-1 to stimulate precursors of CFU-C to proliferate and differentiate to macrophages. Precursors of CFU-C possess low levels of the CSF-1 receptor but there is an increase in receptor levels on CFU-C just before their differentiation to adherent, proliferating mononuclear phagocytes. As the timing of this developmentally associated increase in receptor expression coincides with the acquisition of responsiveness to CSF-1 alone, it is an early indicator of determination to the mononuclear phagocytic lineage.

Colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) regulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of mononuclear phagocytes. The CSF-1 receptor was purified from cell membranes of the J774.2 mouse macrophage cell line by solubilization with Triton X-100, CSF-1 affinity chromatography, and gel filtration. The purified receptor is a protein or glycoprotein of 165 kDa comprising a single polypeptide chain that is not covalently associated, either as a homopolymer, or with any other protein. CSF-1 stimulated autophosphorylation of the purified receptor in tyrosine residues. Casein but not histone was shown to act as a substrate for the tyrosine protein kinase activity of purified receptor.

By immunoblotting with antibodies for phosphotyrosine, we have demonstrated that the hematopoietic growth factors interleukin-2, interleukin-3, interleukin-4, and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor stimulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of specific sets of proteins in murine hematopoietic progenitor cell lines. The stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation is a receptor-dependent transient event. The effect of these hematopoietic growth factors on protein tyrosine phosphorylation was not mediated through protein kinase C.

Tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins induced by various hematopoietic growth factors such as interleukin 3 (IL3), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin 4 (IL4) was studied in several multi-factor-dependent myeloid cell lines. Among the growth factors, IL3 specifically induced rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of a membrane glycoprotein of mol. wt 150 kd (gpp150) in the IL3-dependent cell lines, IC2 and DA-1. The IL3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of gpp150 was detected within 30 s, reached a maximum at 3 min and decreased thereafter. The concentration of IL3 required for half-maximum stimulation of gpp150 tyrosine phosphorylation with 2.5 x 10(6)/ml cells was approximately 200 pM, which is the same as the dissociation constant for 125I-labeled IL3 binding. gpp150 was constitutively phosphorylated on tyrosine residue(s) in growth factor independent variants, IC2Tr and DA-1Tr, derived from IC2 and DA-1 respectively. Neither variant synthesized IL3. The present findings suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of gpp150 is a critical event involved in both IL3-dependent and -independent growth.
