Role of the cAMP and MAPK pathways in the transformation of mouse 3T3 fibroblasts by a TSHR gene constitutively activated by point mutation. (1/144)
Constitutive activating mutations of the TSHR gene, have been detected in about 30 per cent of hyperfunctioning human thyroid adenomas and in a minority of differentiated thyroid carcinomas. The mutations activating the TSHR gene(s) in the thyroid carcinomas, were located at the codon 623 changing an Ala to a Ser (GCC-->TCC) or in codon 632 changing a Thr to Ala or Ile (ACC-->GCC or ACC-->ATC). In order to study if the constitutively activated TSHR gene(s) has played a role in the determination of the malignant phenotype presented by these tumors, we investigated: (1) the transforming capacity after transfection of mouse 3T3 cells, of a TSHR cDNA activated by an Ala-->Ser mutation in codon 623 or an Thr-->Ile mutation in codon 632 and (2) the pathway(s) eventually responsible(s) for the malignant phenotype of the cells transformed by these constitutively activated TSHR cDNAs. Our results show that (1) the TSHR(M623) or (M632) cDNAs give rise to 3T3 clones presenting a fully neoplastic phenotype (growth in agar and nude mouse tumorigenesis); this phenotype was weaker in the cells transformed by the 632 cDNA; (2) suggest that the fully transformed phenotype of our 3T3 cells, may be the consequence of the additive effect of the activation of at least two different pathways: the cAMP pathway through G(alpha)s and the Ras dependent MAPK pathway through G(beta)gamma and PI3K and (3) show that the PI3K isoform playing a key role as an effector in the MAPK pathway activation in our 3T3-transformed cells is PI3Kgamma. Signaling from PI3Kgamma to MAPK appears to require in our murine cellular system a tyrosine kinase (still not characterized), Shc, Grb2, Sos, Ras and Raf. It is proposed that the constitutively activated TSHR genes detected in the thyroid carcinomas, may have played an oncogenic role, participating in their development through these two pathways. (+info)Up-regulation of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase promoter by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase gamma /Janus kinase 2/MEK-1-dependent pathway. (2/144)
Our recent study indicates that lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) enhances Sp1 binding and Sp1-dependent endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) promoter activity via the mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase 1 (MEK-1) signaling pathway (Cieslik, K., Lee, C.-M., Tang, J.-L., and Wu, K. K. (1999) J. Biol. Chem. 274, 34669-34675). To identify upstream signaling molecules, we transfected human endothelial cells with dominant negative and active mutants of Ras and evaluated their effects on eNOS promoter activity. Neither mutant altered the basal or LPC-induced eNOS promoter function. By contrast, a dominant negative mutant of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase gamma (PI-3Kgamma) blocked the promoter activity induced by LPC. Wortmannin and LY 294002 had a similar effect. AG-490, a selective inhibitor of Janus kinase 2 (Jak2), also reduced the LPC-induced Sp1 binding and eNOS promoter activity to the basal level. LPC induced Jak2 phosphorylation, which was abolished by LY 294002 and the dominant negative mutant of PI-3Kgamma. LY 294002 and AG-490 abrogated MEK-1 phosphorylation induced by LPC but had no effect on Raf-1. These results indicate that PI-3Kgamma and Jak2 are essential for LPC-induced eNOS promoter activity. This signaling pathway was sensitive to pertussis toxin, suggesting the involvement of a G(i) protein in PI-3Kgamma activation. These results indicate that LPC enhances Sp1-dependent eNOS promoter activity by a pertussis toxin-sensitive, Ras-independent novel pathway, PI-3Kgamma/Jak2/MEK-1/ERK1/2.

Morphologic polarity is necessary for the motility of mammalian cells. In leukocytes responding to a chemoattractant, this polarity is regulated by activities of small Rho guanosine triphosphatases (Rho GTPases) and the phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks). Moreover, in neutrophils, lipid products of PI3Ks appear to regulate activation of Rho GTPases, are required for cell motility and accumulate asymmetrically to the plasma membrane at the leading edge of polarized cells. By spatially regulating Rho GTPases and organizing the leading edge of the cell, PI3Ks and their lipid products could play pivotal roles not only in establishing leukocyte polarity but also as compass molecules that tell the cell where to crawl. (+info)Crystal structure and functional analysis of Ras binding to its effector phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma. (4/144)
Ras activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) is important for survival of transformed cells. We find that PI3Kgamma is strongly and directly activated by H-Ras G12V in vivo or by GTPgammaS-loaded H-Ras in vitro. We have determined a crystal structure of a PI3Kgamma/Ras.GMPPNP complex. A critical loop in the Ras binding domain positions Ras so that it uses its switch I and switch II regions to bind PI3Kgamma. Mutagenesis shows that interactions with both regions are essential for binding PI3Kgamma. Ras also forms a direct contact with the PI3Kgamma catalytic domain. These unique Ras/PI3Kgamma interactions are likely to be shared by PI3Kalpha. The complex with Ras shows a change in the PI3K conformation that may represent an allosteric component of Ras activation. (+info)A specific role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase gamma. A regulation of autonomic Ca(2)+ oscillations in cardiac cells. (5/144)
Purinergic stimulation of cardiomyocytes turns on a Src family tyrosine kinase-dependent pathway that stimulates PLCgamma and generates IP(3), a breakdown product of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). This signaling pathway closely regulates cardiac cell autonomic activity (i.e., spontaneous cell Ca(2+) spiking). PIP2 is phosphorylated on 3' by phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) that belong to a broad family of kinase isoforms. The product of PI3K, phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate, regulates activity of PLCgamma. PI3Ks have emerged as crucial regulators of many cell functions including cell division, cell migration, cell secretion, and, via PLCgamma, Ca(2+) homeostasis. However, although PI3Kalpha and -beta have been shown to mediate specific cell functions in nonhematopoietic cells, such a role has not been found yet for PI3Kgamma. We report that neonatal rat cardiac cells in culture express PI3Kalpha, -beta, and -gamma. The purinergic agonist predominantly activates PI3Kgamma. Both wortmannin and LY294002 prevent tyrosine phosphorylation, and membrane translocation of PLCgamma as well as IP(3) generation in ATP-stimulated cells. Furthermore, an anti-PI3Kgamma, but not an anti-PI3Kbeta, injected in the cells prevents the effect of ATP on cell Ca(2+) spiking. A dominant negative mutant of PI3Kgamma transfected in the cells also exerts the same action. The effect of ATP was observed on spontaneous Ca(2+) spiking of wild-type but not of PI3Kgamma(2/2) embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes. ATP activates the Btk tyrosine kinase, Tec, and induces its association with PLCgamma. A dominant negative mutant of Tec blocks the purinergic effect on cell Ca(2+) spiking. Tec is translocated to the T-tubes upon ATP stimulation of cardiac cells. Both an anti-PI3Kgamma antibody and a dominant negative mutant of PI3Kgamma injected or transfected into cells prevent the latter event. We conclude that PI3Kgamma activation is a crucial step in the purinergic regulation of cardiac cell spontaneous Ca(2+) spiking. Our data further suggest that Tec works in concert with a Src family kinase and PI3Kgamma to fully activate PLCgamma in ATP-stimulated cardiac cells. This cluster of kinases provides the cardiomyocyte with a tight regulation of IP(3) generation and thus cardiac autonomic activity. (+info)Expression, purification, characterization and homology modeling of active Akt/PKB, a key enzyme involved in cell survival signaling. (6/144)
Akt is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a critical role in cell survival signaling and its activation has been linked to tumorigenesis. Up-regulation of Akt as well as its upstream regulator phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) has been found in many tumors and the negative regulator of this pathway PTEN/MMAC is a tumor suppressor. As a target for drug discovery, we have expressed and purified an active Akt1 enzyme from a recombinant baculovirus-infected Sf9 cell culture. Coexpression of Akt1 with the catalytic subunit of PI3K or treatment with okadaic acid during expression was found to generate an active enzyme in the insect cell culture system. We have optimized the kinase activity and developed a simple quantitative kinase assay using biotinylated peptide substrates. Using the purified active enzyme, we have characterized its physical, catalytic and kinetic properties. Since Akt is closely related to protein kinase C (PKC) and protein kinase A, the issue of obtaining selective inhibitors of this enzyme was addressed by comparison of the structures of catalytic domains of Akt and PKC, derived by homology modeling methods. A number of amino acid differences in the ATP binding regions of these kinases were identified, suggesting that selective inhibitors of Akt can be discovered. However, the ATP binding regions are highly conserved in the three isoforms of Akt implying that the discovery of isoform-selective inhibitors would be very challenging. (+info)Phosphoinositide 3-kinase gamma mediates angiotensin II-induced stimulation of L-type calcium channels in vascular myocytes. (7/144)
Previous results have shown that in rat portal vein myocytes the betagamma dimer of the G(13) protein transduces the angiotensin II-induced stimulation of calcium channels and increase in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration through activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). In the present work we determined which class I PI3K isoforms were involved in this regulation. Western blot analysis indicated that rat portal vein myocytes expressed only PI3Kalpha and PI3Kgamma and no other class I PI3K isoforms. In the intracellular presence of an anti-p110gamma antibody infused by the patch clamp pipette, both angiotensin II- and Gbetagamma-mediated stimulation of Ca(2+) channel current were inhibited, whereas intracellular application of an anti-p110alpha antibody had no effect. The anti-PI3Kgamma antibody also inhibited the angiotensin II- and Gbetagamma-induced production of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. In Indo-1 loaded cells, the angiotensin II-induced increase in [Ca(2+)](i) was inhibited by intracellular application of the anti-PI3Kgamma antibody, whereas the anti-PI3Kalpha antibody had no effect. The specificity of the anti-PI3Kgamma antibody used in functional experiments was ascertained by showing that this antibody did not recognize recombinant PI3Kalpha in Western blot experiments. Moreover, anti-PI3Kgamma antibody inhibited the stimulatory effect of intracellularly infused recombinant PI3Kgamma on Ca(2+) channel current without altering the effect of recombinant PI3Kalpha. Our results show that, although both PI3Kgamma and PI3Kalpha are expressed in vascular myocytes, the angiotensin II-induced stimulation of vascular L-type calcium channel and increase of [Ca(2+)](i) involves only the PI3Kgamma isoform. (+info)Resistance to thromboembolism in PI3Kgamma-deficient mice. (8/144)
Platelet aggregation and subsequent thrombosis are the major cause of ischemic diseases such as heart attack and stroke. ADP, acting via G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), is an important signal in thrombus formation and involves activation of phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3K). When platelets from mice lacking the G protein-activated PI3Kgamma isoform were stimulated with ADP, aggregation was impaired. Collagen or thrombin, however, evoked a normal response. ADP stimulation of PI3Kgamma-deficient platelets resulted in decreased PKB/Akt phosphorylation and alpha(IIb)beta(3) fibrinogen receptor activation. These effects did not influence bleeding time but protected PI3Kgamma-null mice from death caused by ADP-induced platelet-dependent thromboembolic vascular occlusion. This result demonstrates an unsuspected, well-defined role for PI3Kgamma downstream of ADP and suggests that pharmacological targeting of PI3Kgamma has a potential use as antithrombotic therapy.

Histocompatibility antigens class I (HLA class I) are a group of proteins found on the surface of almost all cells in the human body. These proteins play a crucial role in the immune system by presenting pieces of foreign substances, such as viruses or bacteria, to immune cells called T cells. HLA class I antigens are encoded by a group of genes located on chromosome 6. There are several different HLA class I antigens, each with a unique structure and function. The specific HLA class I antigens present on a person's cells can affect their susceptibility to certain diseases, including autoimmune disorders, infectious diseases, and cancer. In the context of transplantation, HLA class I antigens are important because they can trigger an immune response if the donor tissue is not a close match to the recipient's own tissue. This immune response, known as rejection, can lead to the rejection of the transplanted tissue or organ. Therefore, matching HLA class I antigens between the donor and recipient is an important consideration in transplantation.

Mexiletine is a medication that is primarily used to treat certain types of irregular heartbeats, such as atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia. It works by blocking the sodium channels in the heart's cells, which helps to regulate the heartbeat and prevent abnormal rhythms. Mexiletine is also sometimes used to treat chronic pain, although it is not as effective as other pain medications and can cause side effects such as dizziness, nausea, and tremors. It is usually taken by mouth in the form of tablets or capsules.
In the medical field, an amino acid sequence refers to the linear order of amino acids in a protein molecule. Proteins are made up of chains of amino acids, and the specific sequence of these amino acids determines the protein's structure and function. The amino acid sequence is determined by the genetic code, which is a set of rules that specifies how the sequence of nucleotides in DNA is translated into the sequence of amino acids in a protein. Each amino acid is represented by a three-letter code, and the sequence of these codes is the amino acid sequence of the protein. The amino acid sequence is important because it determines the protein's three-dimensional structure, which in turn determines its function. Small changes in the amino acid sequence can have significant effects on the protein's structure and function, and this can lead to diseases or disorders. For example, mutations in the amino acid sequence of a protein involved in blood clotting can lead to bleeding disorders.
Proto-oncogenes are normal genes that are involved in regulating cell growth and division. When these genes are mutated or overexpressed, they can become oncogenes, which can lead to the development of cancer. Proto-oncogenes are also known as proto-oncogene proteins.
In the medical field, a cell line refers to a group of cells that have been derived from a single parent cell and have the ability to divide and grow indefinitely in culture. These cells are typically grown in a laboratory setting and are used for research purposes, such as studying the effects of drugs or investigating the underlying mechanisms of diseases. Cell lines are often derived from cancerous cells, as these cells tend to divide and grow more rapidly than normal cells. However, they can also be derived from normal cells, such as fibroblasts or epithelial cells. Cell lines are characterized by their unique genetic makeup, which can be used to identify them and compare them to other cell lines. Because cell lines can be grown in large quantities and are relatively easy to maintain, they are a valuable tool in medical research. They allow researchers to study the effects of drugs and other treatments on specific cell types, and to investigate the underlying mechanisms of diseases at the cellular level.
Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase 1 (MAPK1), also known as Extracellular Signal-regulated Kinase 1 (ERK1), is a protein kinase enzyme that plays a crucial role in cellular signaling pathways. It is part of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, which is involved in regulating various cellular processes such as cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis. MAPK1 is activated by a variety of extracellular signals, including growth factors, cytokines, and hormones, and it transduces these signals into the cell by phosphorylating and activating downstream target proteins. These target proteins include transcription factors, cytoskeletal proteins, and enzymes involved in metabolism. In the medical field, MAPK1 is of interest because it is involved in the development and progression of many diseases, including cancer, inflammatory disorders, and neurological disorders. For example, mutations in the MAPK1 gene have been associated with various types of cancer, including breast cancer, colon cancer, and glioblastoma. In addition, MAPK1 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, as well as neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Therefore, understanding the role of MAPK1 in cellular signaling pathways and its involvement in various diseases is important for the development of new therapeutic strategies for these conditions.
P38 Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinases (MAPKs) are a family of serine/threonine protein kinases that play a crucial role in regulating various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, and apoptosis.
