The murine EL4 lymphoma cell line exists in variants that are either sensitive or resistant to the tumor promoter phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). In sensitive EL4 cells, PMA causes robust Erk mitogen-activated protein kinase activation that results in growth arrest. In resistant cells, PMA induces minimal Erk activation, without growth arrest. PMA stimulates IL-2 production in sensitive, but not resistant, cells. The role of RasGRP1, a PMA-activated guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Ras, in EL4 phenotype was examined. Endogenous RasGRP1 protein is expressed at much higher levels in sensitive than in resistant cells. PMA-induced Ras activation is observed in sensitive cells but not in resistant cells lacking Ras-GRP1. PMA induces down-regulation of RasGRP1 protein in sensitive cells but increases RasGRP1 in resistant cells. Transfection of RasGRP1 into resistant cells enhances PMA-induced Erk activation. In the reverse experiment, introduction of small interfering RNA (siRNA) for RasGRP1 suppresses PMA-induced Ras and Erk activations in sensitive cells. Sensitive cells incubated with siRNA for RasGRP1 exhibit the PMA-resistant phenotype, in that they are able to proliferate in the presence of PMA and do not secrete IL-2 when stimulated with PMA. These studies indicate that the PMA-sensitive phenotype, as previously defined for the EL4 cell line, is conferred by endogenous expression of RasGRP1 protein. 相似文献

RasGRP is a recently described guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that possesses a single C1 domain homologous to that of protein kinase C (PKC). The phorbol ester [(3)H]phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate ([(3)H]PDBu) bound to this C1 domain (C1-RasGRP) with a dissociation constant of 0.58 +/- 0.08 nM, similar to that observed previously for PKC. Likewise, the potent PKC activator bryostatin 1, a compound currently in clinical trials, showed high affinity binding for C1-RasGRP. Structure activity analysis using several phorbol ester analogs showed both similarities and differences in ligand selectivity compared with PKC; the differences were comparable in magnitude to those between different PKC isoforms. Similarly, the potency of the PKC inhibitor calphostin C to inhibit [(3)H]PDBu binding to C1-RasGRP was similar to that observed for PKC. In contrast to the relative similarities in ligand recognition, the lipid cofactor requirements differed between RasGRP and PKC. The C1 domain plus the EF-hand motif of RasGRP (C1EF-RasGRP) was markedly less dependent on acidic phospholipids than was PKCalpha. The differences in lipid requirements were reflected in differential ligand selectivity under conditions of limiting lipid. Despite the presence of twin EF-hand like motifs, calcium did not affect the binding of [(3)H]PDBu to C1EF-RasGRP. We conclude that RasGRP is a high affinity receptor for phorbol esters and diacylglycerol. RasGRP thus provides a direct link between diacylglycerol generation or phorbol ester/bryostatin treatment and Ras activation. 相似文献

Since 1990, the National Cancer Institute has performed extensive in vitro screening of compounds for anticancer activity. To date, more than 70 000 compounds have been screened for their antiproliferation activities against a panel of 60 human cancer cell lines. We probed this database to identify novel structural classes with a pattern of biological activity on these cell lines similar to that of the phorbol esters. The iridals form such a structural class. Using the program Autodock, we show that the iridals dock to the same position on the C1b domain of protein kinase C delta as do the phorbol esters, with the primary hydroxyl group of the iridal at the C3 position forming two hydrogen bonds with the amide group of Thr12 and with the carbonyl group of Leu 21 and the aldehyde oxygen of the iridal forming a hydrogen bond with the amide group of Gly23. Biological analysis of two iridals, NSC 631939 and NSC 631941, revealed that they bound to protein kinase C alpha with K(i) values of 75.6 +/- 1.3 and 83.6 +/- 1.5 nM, respectively. Protein kinase C is now recognized to represent only one of five families of proteins with C1 domains capable of high-affinity binding of diacylglycerol and the phorbol esters. NSC 631939 and NSC 631941 bound to RasGRP3, a phorbol ester receptor that directly links diacylglycerol/phorbol ester signaling with Ras activation, with K(i) values of 15.5 +/- 2.3 and 41.7 +/- 6.5 nM, respectively. Relative to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, they showed 15- and 6-fold selectivity for RasGRP3. Both compounds caused translocation of green fluorescent protein tagged RasGRP3 expressed in HEK293 cells, and both compounds induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2, a downstream indicator of Ras activation, in a RasGRP3-dependent fashion. We conclude that the iridals represent a promising structural motif for design of ligands for phorbol ester receptor family members. 相似文献

ADP is a critical regulator of platelet activation, mediating its actions through two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), P2Y1 and P2Y12. We have shown previously that the receptors are functionally desensitized, in a homologous manner, by distinct kinase-dependent mechanisms in which P2Y1 is regulated by protein kinase C (PKC) and P2Y12 by G protein-coupled receptor kinases. In this study, we addressed whether different PKC isoforms play different roles in regulating the trafficking and activity of these two GPCRs. Expression of PKCalpha and PKCdelta dominant-negative mutants in 1321N1 cells revealed that both isoforms regulated P2Y1 receptor signaling and trafficking, although only PKCdelta was capable of regulating P2Y12, in experiments in which PKC was directly activated by the phorbol ester phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). These results were paralleled in human platelets, in which PMA reduced subsequent ADP-induced P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptor signaling. PKC isoform-selective inhibitors revealed that novel, but not conventional, isoforms of PKC regulate P2Y12 function, whereas both novel and classic isoforms regulate P2Y1 activity. It is also noteworthy that we studied receptor internalization in platelets by a radioligand binding approach showing that both receptors internalize rapidly in these cells. ADP-induced P2Y1 receptor internalization is attenuated by PKC inhibitors, whereas that of the P2Y12 receptor is unaffected. Both P2Y1 and P2Y12 receptors can also undergo PMA-stimulated internalization, and here again, novel but not classic PKCs regulate P2Y12, whereas both novel and classic isoforms regulate P2Y1 internalization. This study therefore is the first to reveal distinct roles for PKC isoforms in the regulation of platelet P2Y receptor function and trafficking. 相似文献

The development of androgen-independent prostate cancer (AI PrCa) involves constitutive Erk1/2 activation sustained by the epidermal growth factor/transforming growth factor-alpha/EGF receptor (EGF/TGFalpha/EGFR) axis and other trophic signaling mechanisms in neoplastic human prostate epithelial cells in vivo. In this report, we show that growth-inhibitory concentrations of the dietary phytochemical resveratrol suppress EGFR-dependent Erk1/2 activation pathways stimulated by EGF and phorbol ester (12- O -tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate, TPA) in human AI PrCa PC-3 cells in vitro. Because protein kinase C (PKC) is the major cellular receptor for phorbol esters and taking into consideration that resveratrol is PKC-inhibitory, we investigated resveratrol effects on cellular PKC isozymes associated with the suppression of TPA-induced Erk1/2 activation. The PKC isozyme composition of PC-3 cells was defined by Western analysis of the cell lysate with a comprehensive set of isozyme-selective PKC Ab's. PC-3 cells expressed PKCalpha, epsilon, zeta, iota, and PKD (PKCmicro), as did another human AI PrCa cell line of distinct genetic origin, DU145. The effects of resveratrol on TPA-induced PKC isozyme activation were defined by monitoring PKC isozyme translocation and autophosphorylation. Under conditions where resveratrol suppressed TPA-induced Erk1/2 activation, the phytochemical produced isozyme-selective interference with TPA-induced translocation of cytosolic PKCalpha to the membrane/cytoskeleton and selectively diminished the amount of autophosphorylated PKCalpha in the membrane/cytoskeleton of the TPA-treated cells. These results demonstrate that resveratrol abrogation of a PKC-mediated Erk1/2 activation response in PC-3 cells correlates with isozyme-selective PKCalpha inhibition. The results provide evidence that resveratrol may have value as an adjuvant cancer therapeutic in advanced prostate cancer. 相似文献

Activity of protein kinase C modulates the apoptosis induced by polychlorinated biphenyls in human leukemic HL-60 cells 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) induce apoptotic cell death of HL-60 cells. In the present study, we examined the possible involvement of protein kinase C (PKC) in PCB-induced apoptosis of HL-60 cells. Treatment of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), an activator of PKC, suppressed DNA fragmentation induced by PCBs in HL-60 cells. Treatment with another active phorbol ester, phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), also suppressed PCB-induced DNA fragmentation, whereas 4alpha-phorbol-12,13-didecanoate (4alphaPDD), an inactive phorbol ester, did not affect PCB-induced apoptosis of HL-60 cell. Moreover, 1-oleoyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycerol (OAG), an activator of PKC that is not a phorbol ester, also suppressed PCB-induced DNA fragmentation. However, 1-(5-isoquinolinylsulfonyl)-2-methylpiperazine (H-7), an inhibitor of PKC, increased DNA fragmentation induced by PCBs. These results demonstrate that the activation of PKC is responsible for the suppression of PCB-induced apoptosis of HL-60 cells. Furthermore, inhibition of PKC promotes DNA fragmentation of HL-60 cells treated with PCBs, thereby suggesting the involvement of PKC activity in PCB-induced apoptosis of HL-60 cells. 相似文献

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) regulates contractility and growth of the mammalian heart by binding endothelin receptor type A (ET(A)) and endothelin receptor type B (ET(B)) G-protein-coupled receptors. To identify growth signaling pathways associated with ET-1 receptors in adult myocardium, a combined immunoprecipitation/proteomic analysis was performed. Signaling proteins believed to function downstream of ET(A) such as Galpha(q), phospholipase C-beta1, protein kinase C (PKC) epsilon, and PKCdelta were identified in immunoprecipitates of ET(A) by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization/time of flight mass spectrometry. Also prominent were the growth factor receptor tyrosine kinases erbB2 and erbB4 and their downstream growth signaling effectors phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3 kinase), Akt, Raf-1, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK), and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk). Western blot analysis confirmed coimmunoprecipitation of erbB2/4, PI3 kinase, and Akt with ET(A), and confocal microscopy revealed their colocalization in cardiac transverse tubules (T-tubules). The erbB4 receptor ligand neuregulin-1beta (NRG1beta) promoted erbB2/4 tryosine phosphorylation and Akt serine phosphorylation in ventricular myocytes, whereas treatment with ET-1 did not. This observation argues against ET-1 growth signaling occurring via erbB2/4 transactivation in adult myocardium. ET-1 did, however, stimulate Erk1/2 phosphorylation and substantially blunted several NRG1beta-mediated actions, including erbB2/4 phosphorylation, serine phosphorylation of Akt, and negative inotropy. This inhibitory cross-talk between ET(A) and erbB2/4-Akt pathways was mimicked by a phorbol ester and blocked by pharmacological inhibition of PKC or MEK/Erk. The proteomic analysis and subsequent investigation of receptor cross-talk indicate that growth signaling between ET(A) and erbB pathways is fundamentally different in adult versus neonatal cardiac myocytes. The results may be relevant to cardiomyopathies associated with 1) prolonged exposure to ET-1; 2) degeneration of T-tubules; and 3) therapies targeted at erbB2 inhibition. 相似文献

1 Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) has been widely studied as a naturally occurring and multifunctional phospholipid messenger in diverse tissue and cell types and shown to inhibit adenylyl cyclase (AC) by a G protein-mediated mechanism. 2 In type II AC-expressing mouse RAW 264.7 macrophages, we showed that LPA at 3-50 microM increased cyclic AMP formation in a concentration-dependent manner, the effect being additive with that of forskolin or cholera toxin, and synergistic with that of prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) or isoproterenol. 3 The potentiation effect of LPA was unaffected by the removal of serum or pertussis toxin treatment. 4 Both colchicine and cytochalasin B potentiated the cyclic AMP response to PGE1, the effect being additive to that of LPA. 5 On studying the regulation of type II AC by protein kinase C (PKC), phorbol 12-myristate-13 acetate (PMA) potentiated the PGE1-elicited cyclic AMP response, this effect being non-additive to that of LPA, suggesting that PKC activation was the common mechanism involved in AC potentiation by LPA and PMA. 6 PKC inhibitor Ro 31-8220, but not Go 6976, significantly inhibited the LPA-induced cyclic AMP potentiation. 7 The potentiation effect of LPA was unaffected by long-term treatment with PMA, which resulted in the down-regulation of PKCalpha, betaI, betaII and PKCdelta, but not PKCepsilon, mu, lambda and zeta. 8 By in situ kinase assay, we found a marked increase in atypical PKC activity after LPA treatment. 9 Taken together, we conclude that LPA can elicit a unique signalling cascade in RAW 264.7 macrophages and increase type II AC activity via the activation of atypical PKC. 相似文献

The effects of protein kinase C (PKC) activation on inositol lipid signaling were examined. Using the turkey erythrocyte model of receptor-regulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, we developed a membrane reconstitution assay to study directly the effects of activation of PKC on the activities of Galpha(11), independent of potential effects on the receptor or on PLC-beta. Membranes isolated from erythrocytes pretreated with 4beta-phorbol-12beta-myristate-13alpha-acetate (PMA) exhibited a decreased capacity for Galpha(11)-mediated activation of purified, reconstituted PLC-beta1. This inhibitory effect was dependent on both the time and concentration of PMA incubation and occurred as a decrease in the efficacy of GTPgammaS for activation of PLC-beta1, both in the presence and absence of agonist; no change in the apparent affinity for the guanine nucleotide occurred. Similar inhibitory effects were observed after treatment with the PKC activator phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate but not after treatment with an inactive phorbol ester. The inhibitory effects of PMA were prevented by coaddition of the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide. Although the effects of PKC could be localized to the membrane, no phosphorylation of Galpha(11) occurred either in vitro in the presence of purified PKC or in intact erythrocytes after PMA treatment. These results support the hypothesis that a signaling protein other than Galpha(11) is the target for PKC and that PKC-promoted phosphorylation of this protein results in a phosphorylation-dependent suppression of Galpha(11)-mediated PLC-beta1 activation. 相似文献

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is an important mediator of immunoinflammatory responses in the brain. In the present study, we examined whether prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production after IL-1beta stimulation is dependent upon activation of protein kinases in astroglial cells. Astrocyte cultures stimulated with IL-1beta or the phorbol ester, PMA significantly increased PGE(2) secretion. The stimulatory action of IL-1beta on PGE(2) production was totally abolished by NS-398, a specific inhibitor of cyclo-oxygenase-2 activity, as well as by the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide, and the glucocorticoid dexamethasone. Furthermore, IL-1beta induced the expression of COX-2 mRNA. This occurred early at 2 h, with a maximum at 4 h and declined at 12 h. IL-1 beta treatment also induced the expression of COX-2 protein as determined by immunoblot analysis. In that case the expression of the protein remained high at least up to 12 h. Treatment of cells with protein kinase C inhibitors (H-7, bisindolylmaleimide and calphostin C) inhibited IL-1beta stimulation of PGE(2). In addition, PKC-depleted astrocyte cultures by overnight treatment with PMA no longer responded to PMA or IL-1. The ablation of the effects of PMA and IL-1beta on PGE(2) production, likely results from down-regulation of phorbol ester sensitive-PKC isoenzymes. Immunoblot analysis demonstrated the translocation of the conventional isoform cPKC-alpha from cytosol to membrane following treatment with IL-1beta. In addition, IL-1beta treatment led to activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and p38 subgroups of MAP kinases in astroglial cells. Interestingly, the inhibition of ERK kinase with PD 98059, as well as the inhibition of p38 MAPK with SB 203580, prevented IL-1beta-induced PGE(2) release. ERK1/2 activation by IL-1beta was sensitive to inhibition by the PKC inhibitor bisindolylmaleimide suggesting that ERK phosphorylation is a downstream signal of PKC activation. These results suggest key roles for PKC as well as for ERK1/2 and p38 MAP kinase cascades in the biosynthesis of PGE(2), likely by regulating the induction of cyclo-oxygenase-2, in IL-1beta-stimulated astroglial cells. 相似文献

The effect of a change in the phosphorylation state of the drug transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp) on its drug transport activity was studied for the substrates daunorubicin (DNR), etoposide (VP-16), and calcein acetoxymethyl ester (Cal-AM). Phorbol ester (PMA), added to stimulate phosphorylation of P-gp by protein kinase C (PKC), caused a decrease in the cellular accumulation of DNR and VP-16, both in multidrug-resistant (MDR) P-gp-oversxpressing cells and in wild-type cells. Since treatment of cells with kinase inhibitor staurosporine (ST) reversed this effect of PMA and the non-PKC-stimulating phorbol ester 4cn-phorbol, 12,13-didecanoate (4αPDD) did not result in a decreased DNR accumulation, we conclude that this effect is the result of kinase activity. The concentration dependence of the inhibition of P-gp by verapamil (Vp) was not influenced by PMA. Accumulation of the P-gp substrate Cal-AM was not influenced by PMA in wild-type cells. Therefore, Cal-AM was used to study the effect of PMA-induced phosphorylation of P-gp on its transport activity. Activation of PKC with PMA or inhibition of protein phosphatase 1/2A (PP1/PP2A) with okadaic acid (OA) did not affect the accumulation of Cal-AM in the MDR cells or wild-type cells. The kinase inhibitor ST increased the Cal-AM accumulation only in the MDR cells. Neither stimulating PKC with PMA nor inhibiting PP1/PP2A with OA led to a decreased inhibition of P-gp by ST, indicating that ST inhibits P-gp directly. From these experiments, we conclude that PKC and PP1/PP2A activity do not regulate the drug transport activity of P-gp. However, these studies provide evidence that PMA-induced PKC activity decreases cellular drug accumulation in a P-gp-independent manner. 相似文献

The mechanism of inhibition of eosinophil degranulation by protein kinase C (PKC) was investigated in complement C5a (C5a)-stimulated degranulation of highly purified human eosinophils using the specific PKC activator - phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). C5a-induced release of eosinophil peroxidase and eosinophil cationic protein was potently inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner by PMA (IC(50): 3 and 5 nM, respectively). The inhibition by PMA, but not histamine, was significantly reversed by the specific, but isoform nonselective, PKC inhibitor Ro 31-8220 (1 microM). In the presence of phosphodiesterase inhibitor rolipram (5 microM), PMA stimulated a pronounced concentration-dependent increase in intracellular cAMP, with a potency 400 times that of histamine (EC(50): 55 nM vs 22.5 microM). The inactive PMA analogue, 4alpha-PMA, had no such effect. The cAMP production by PMA, but not histamine, was significantly reversed by Ro 31-8220 (1 microM) and the selective inhibitor of the novel PKCdelta, rottlerin (1-3 microM), but not the selective inhibitor of the classical PKC isoforms, G? 6976 (0.01-0.1 microM). Western blot analysis revealed the presence of six PKC isoforms (alpha, betaI, betaII, delta, iota and zeta) in isolated eosinophils. Chelation of internal or external calcium had no effect on PMA-induced cAMP response, but abolished that induced by histamine. There was a good correlation between increase in intracellular cAMP and inhibition of degranulation. These results show, for the first time, that in human eosinophils, PMA, via activation of PKCdelta isoform, can stimulate cAMP production, and that this may be the basis for its potent anti-degranulatory effect. 相似文献

Homologous and heterologous phosphorylations of histamine H1 receptor (H1R) in intact cells were investigated using Chinese hamster ovary cells stably co-expressing c-myc-tagged human histamine H1 and muscarinic M3 receptors. Increase in histamine-induced homologous phosphorylation of H1R was induced in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Maximum phosphorylation of H1R by 8-fold over the basal level was induced 1 min after the stimulation, and the increased phosphorylation level was maintained over 40 min. M3 receptor-mediated heterologous phosphorylation of H1R reached maximum by 2-fold over the basal level at 5 min after the stimulation and then rapidly returned to the basal level by 40 min after the stimulation. Histamine-induced phosphorylation of H1R was partially inhibited by three protein kinase inhibitors including Ro-31-8220 for protein kinase C (PKC), KN-93 for calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII), and KT5823 for protein kinase G (PKG), while, M3-receptor-mediated phosphorylation of H1R was completely inhibited by Ro 31-8220. Protein kinase activators including phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), 8-bromo-cyclic GMP (8-Br-cGMP), and 8-bromo-cyclic AMP (8-Br-cAMP) induced increases in H1R phosphorylation. Increased phosphorylation of H1R, by 5-fold over the basal level, induced with a combination of PMA, 8-Br-cGMP, and 8-Br-cAMP was still lower than that with histamine. It was suggested that H1R-mediated H1R phosphorylation involves the activation of PKC, CaMKII, PKG, and other unidentified kinases including G-protein coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) and that PKC is solely involved in M3 receptor-mediated H1R phosphorylation. 相似文献

RATIONALE: Lithium, an effective psychotropic agent, affects membrane phospholipid metabolism, interferes with phosphoinositide signal transduction, and antagonizes the biological activity of calcium, all major factors of protein kinase C (PKC) activation. Consequently, lithium may interfere with cellular functions requiring PKC. Supporting this hypothesis, lithium was found to inhibit increased neurotransmitter release upon PKC activation and to prevent phorbol ester-mediated PKC translocation. OBJECTIVES: The present study was undertaken to determine whether the frontal cortex of rats treated with lithium exhibits altered PKC activity and translocation in response to phorbol ester, K+, or serotonin (5-HT) receptor stimulation and to determine whether specific PKC isozymes are disproportionately affected. METHODS: Rats were fed either a normal diet or one enriched with LiCl. In cerebrocortical slices or synaptosomes, cytosolic and membranous PKC activity and translocation in response to stimuli were determined after partial purification with anion exchange chromatography. RESULTS: In brain slices, lithium treatment inhibited phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA)-, 5-HT-, or K+-induced PKC translocation from cytosol to membrane without affecting basal membrane or cytosolic PKC activity. In synaptosomes, lithium also attenuated PMA- or K+-evoked translocation of PKC. Immunoblotting with isozyme-specific PKC antibodies revealed that chronic lithium treatment reduced basal cytosolic alphaPKC and deltaPKC but increased membrane-associated zetaPKC immunoreactivities. Stimulation with PMA, 5-HT or K+ elicited translocation of alpha, beta and gammaPKC isozymes and PMA induced translocation of delta and epsilonPKC isozymes. Stimulus-mediated translocation of PKC isozymes was attenuated in cortical tissue obtained from animals that received lithium for 6 weeks. In synaptosomes, PMA- or K+-induced PKC translocation was attenuated by in vitro lithium or chronic lithium treatment. Neither rubidium nor cesium affected PKC activities or PMA-induced translocation. Suppression of PMA-elicited translocation by lithium was partially antagonized by Ca2+. CONCLUSIONS: Lithium treatment reduces PKC translocation induced by either stimulation of a cell surface receptor or by direct enzyme stimulation with phorbol ester. This effect leads to reduced PKC-mediated phosphorylation of cellular proteins and may be responsible for the pharmacotherapeutic action of lithium. 相似文献

Agonist activation of endogenous angiotensin II (Ang II) AT(1) receptors expressed in hepatic C9 cells markedly stimulated inositol phosphate production, phosphorylation of the proline-rich tyrosine kinase PyK-2, and ERK activation. Ang II caused activation of protein kinase C delta (PKCdelta) in C9 cells, and its stimulatory actions on Pyk2 and extracellularly regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation were abolished by PKC depletion and selective inhibition of PKCdelta by rottlerin, but not by Ca(2+)-chelators. These effects, and the similar actions of the Src kinase inhibitor PP2 indicate the involvement of PKCdelta and Src kinase in ERK activation. In C9 cells, phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) caused much greater phosphorylation of Pyk2 and ERK than the Ca(2+) ionophore ionomycin, and the effects of PMA and Ang II were abolished in PKC-depleted cells. Ang II increased the association of Pyk2 with Src and with the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R). EGF caused much greater tyrosine phosphorylation of the EGF-R than Ang II and PMA. Ang II-induced activation of ERK, but not Pyk2, was prevented by inhibition of EGF receptor phosphorylation by AG 1478 and of Src kinase by PP1. Ang II also increased the association of the adaptor protein Grb2 with the EGF-R. These findings indicate that Src and Pyk2 act upstream of the EGF-R and that the majority of Ang II-induced ERK phosphorylation is dependent on trans-activation of the EGF-R. Ang II-induced ERK activation in C9 cells is initiated by a PKCdelta-dependent but Ca(2+)-independent mechanism and is mediated by the Src/Pyk2 complex through trans-activation of the EGF-R. 相似文献

The phorbol ester tumor promoters and related analogs are widely used as potent activators of protein kinase C (PKC). The phorbol esters mimic the action of the lipid second messenger diacylglycerol (DAG). The aim of this commentary is to highlight a series of important and controversial concepts in the pharmacology and regulation of phorbol ester receptors. First, phorbol ester analogs have marked differences in their biological properties. This may be related to a differential regulation of PKC isozymes by distinct analogs. Moreover, it seems that marked differences exist in the ligand recognition properties of the C1 domains, the phorbol ester/DAG binding sites in PKC isozymes. Second, an emerging theme that we discuss here is that phorbol esters also target receptors unrelated to PKC isozymes, a concept that has been largely ignored. These novel receptors lacking kinase activity include chimaerins (a family of Rac-GTPase-activating proteins), RasGRP (a Ras exchange factor), and Unc-13/Munc-13 (a family of proteins involved in exocytosis). Unlike the classical and novel PKCs, these "non-kinase" phorbol ester receptors possess a single copy of the C1 domain. Interestingly, each receptor class has unique pharmacological properties and biochemical regulation. Lastly, it is well established that phorbol esters and related analogs can translocate each receptor to different intracellular compartments. The differential pharmacological properties of the phorbol ester receptors can be exploited to generate specific agonists and antagonists that will be helpful tools to dissect their cellular function. 相似文献

Stimulation of histamine H(1) receptors produced a marked activation of inositol phospholipid hydrolysis, intracellular calcium mobilization, and stimulation of the c-fos promoter in CHO-H1 cells expressing the H(1) receptor at a level of 3 pmol/mg protein. The latter response was determined using a luciferase-based reporter gene (pGL3). This response to histamine was not sensitive to inhibition by pertussis toxin but could be completely attenuated by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor Ro-31-8220, or by 24-h pretreatment with the phorbol esters phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate or phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate. Several isoforms of PKC can be detected in CHO-H1 cells (alpha, delta, epsilon, mu, iota, zeta) but only PKCalpha and PKCdelta were down-regulated by prolonged treatment with phorbol esters. Of the two isoforms that were down-regulated, only protein kinase Calpha was translocated to CHO-H1 cell membranes after stimulation with either histamine or phorbol esters. The PKC inhibitor G? 6976, which inhibits PKCalpha but not PKCdelta, was also able to significantly attenuate the c-fos-luciferase response to histamine. The mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor PD 98059 markedly inhibited the response to histamine, suggesting that the likely major target for PKCalpha was the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. These data suggest that the histamine H(1) receptor can signal to the nucleus via PKCalpha after activation of phospholipase Cbeta. 相似文献

Stimulation of protein kinase C-dependent and -independent signaling pathways by bistratene A in intestinal epithelial cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The marine toxin bistratene A (BisA) potently induces cytostasis and differentiation in a variety of systems. Evidence that BisA is a selective activator of protein kinase C (PKC) delta implicates PKC delta signaling in the negative growth-regulatory effects of this agent. The current study further investigates the signaling pathways activated by BisA by comparing its effects with those of the PKC agonist phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) in the IEC-18 intestinal crypt cell line. Both BisA and PMA induced cell cycle arrest in these cells, albeit with different kinetics. While BisA produced sustained cell cycle arrest in G(0)/G(1) and G(2)/M, the effects of PMA were transient and involved mainly a G(0)/G(1) blockade. BisA also produced apoptosis in a proportion of the population, an effect not seen with PMA. Both agents induced membrane translocation/activation of PKC, with BisA translocating only PKC delta and PMA translocating PKC alpha, delta, and epsilon in these cells. Notably, while depletion of PKC alpha, delta, and epsilon abrogated the cell cycle-specific effects of PMA in IEC-18 cells, the absence of these PKC isozymes failed to inhibit BisA-induced G(0)/G(1) and G(2)/M arrest or apoptosis. The cell cycle inhibitory and apoptotic effects of BisA, therefore, appear to be PKC-independent in IEC-18 cells. On the other hand, BisA and PMA both promoted PKC-dependent activation of Erk 1 and 2 in this system. Thus, intestinal epithelial cells respond to BisA through activation of at least two signaling pathways: a PKC delta-dependent pathway, which leads to activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and possibly cytostasis in the appropriate context, and a PKC-independent pathway, which induces both cell cycle arrest in G(0)/G(1) and G(2)/M and apoptosis through as yet unknown mechanisms. 相似文献

We have been examining the role of protein kinase C (PKC) in synovial cell activation in response to interleukin-1 (IL-1). Attempts to measure PKC in soluble extracts of synovial fibroblasts by standard techniques failed. Western blotting with anti-PKC antibodies detected only a low level of PKC in synovial cells compared to rat basophilic leukemia cells and crude brain extracts. However, synovial PKC could be detected by measuring the Ca(2+)- and phospholipid-dependent phosphorylation of endogenous substrates. In this way, a 35 kDa protein was identified as the major endogenous cytosolic substrate for PKC. Treatment of synoviocytes with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) strongly induced the synthesis of neutral metalloproteinases (NPs) and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2). Both Western blotting and assays based upon phosphorylation of the 35 kDa protein confirmed translocation of PKC from the cytosol in response to PMA. Although IL-1 induced the NPs and PGE2, it did so without detectable translocation of PKC. There thus appear to be PKC-dependent and PKC-independent routes of synovial cell activation. Our data suggest that IL-1 uses the latter. 相似文献

1. We investigated whether protein kinase C (PKC) activation stimulates Ca2+ entry in HEK 293 cells transfected with human TRPV4 cDNA and loaded with fura-2. 2. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), a PKC-activating phorbol ester, increased the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in a dose-dependent manner, with an EC50 value of 11.7 nm. Exposure to a hypotonic solution (HTS) after PMA further increased [Ca2+]i. Two other PKC-activating phorbol esters, phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (PDD) and phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, also caused [Ca2+]i to increase. 3. The inactive isomer 4alpha-PMA was less effective and the peak [Ca2+]i increase was significantly smaller than that induced by PMA. In contrast, 4alpha-PDD produced a monophasic or biphasic [Ca2+]i increase with a different latency, while 4alpha-phorbol had no effect. 4. The PMA-induced [Ca2+]i increase was abolished by prior exposure to bisindolylmaleimide (BIM), a PKC-specific inhibitor, and suppressed by the nonspecific PKC inhibitor 1-(5-isoquinolinesulphonyl)-2-methylpiperazine. The [Ca2+]i increase induced by 4alpha-PMA, 4alpha-PDD or HTS was not significantly affected by BIM. 5. These results suggest that both PKC-dependent and -independent mechanisms are involved in the phorbol ester-induced activation of TRPV4, and the PKC-independent pathway is predominant in HTS-induced Ca2+ entry. 相似文献
