SHP-2 and PI3-kinase genes PTPN11 and PIK3R1 may influence serum apoB and LDL cholesterol levels in normal women.

Insulin regulates apoB metabolism via activation of PI3K or regulation of MTP via MAPK/ERK signalling. SHP-2 enhances both pathways through increased IRS-1 phosphorylation. We hypothesized that variants in the SHP-2 gene PTPN11 and PI3K p85alpha subunit gene PIK3R1 may influence fasting levels of plasma apoB and/or LDL cholesterol. We tested association of tagging SNPs (tSNPs) in each gene with serum lipids in a large sample of unselected population-based Caucasian female twins (n=2771, mean age 47.4+/-12.5 years) and then tested interaction between tSNPs in determining apoB and LDL levels. PTPN11 tSNP rs11066322 was associated with apoB (P=0.007) and rs11066320 was associated with LDL cholesterol (P=0.016). PIK3R1 tSNP rs251406 was associated with apoB (P=0.0003) and rs706713 was associated with LDL cholesterol (P=0.009). PTPN11 tSNP rs11066322 interacted with PIK3R1 tSNP rs251406 in determining serum apoB levels (P=0.012) and with PIK3R1 tSNP rs40318 in determining LDL cholesterol levels (P=0.009). Association of single tSNPs with both apoB and LDL cholesterol as well as interactions between the two genes suggest that variants influencing SHP-2 activity may modulate the acute pathway by which insulin regulates these lipids.

Reduced phosphatase activity of SHP-2 in LEOPARD syndrome: consequences for PI3K binding on Gab1.

LEOPARD (LS) and Noonan (NS) are overlapping syndromes associated with distinct mutations of SHP-2. Whereas NS mutations enhance SHP-2 catalytic activity, we show that the activity of three representative LS mutants is undetectable when assayed using a standard protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) substrate. A different assay using a specific SHP-2 substrate confirms their decreased PTP activity, but also reveals a significant activity of the T468M mutant. In transfected cells stimulated with epidermal growth factor, the least active LS mutants promote Gab1/PI3K binding, validating our in vitro data. LS mutants thus display a reduced PTP activity both in vitro and in transfected cells.

Transcriptional corepression by SHP: molecular mechanisms and physiological consequences.

Small heterodimer partner (SHP; NR0B2), an exceptional member of the mammalian nuclear receptor family, directly modulates the activities of conventional nuclear receptors by acting as an inducible and tissue-specific corepressor. Recent progress in dissecting underlying molecular mechanisms, identifying target factors and target genes, and uncovering physiological functions points to the regulatory involvement of SHP in diverse metabolic and intracellular pathways that awaits future clarification. In this review, we carry out a comprehensive survey of all published data and discuss our current understanding of molecular mechanisms and physiological consequences governing SHP action.

Deficiency of SHP-1 protein-tyrosine phosphatase activity results in heightened osteoclast function and decreased bone density.

Mice homozygous for the motheaten (Hcphme) or viable motheaten (Hcphme-v) mutations are deficient in functional SHP-1 protein-tyrosine phosphatase and show severe defects in hematopoiesis. Comparison of femurs from mev/mev mice revealed significant decreases in bone mineral density (0.33 +/- 0.03 mg/mm3 for mev/mevversus 0.41 +/- 0.01 mg/mm3 for controls) and mineral content (1.97 +/- 0.36 mg for mev/mevversus 10.64 +/- 0.67 for controls) compared with littermate controls. Viable motheaten mice also showed reduced amounts of trabecular bone and decreased cortical thickness. These bone abnormalities were associated with a 14% increase in numbers of multinucleated osteoclasts and an increase in osteoclast resorption activity. In co-cultures of normal osteoblasts with mutant or control bone marrow cells, numbers of osteoclasts developing from mutant mice were increased compared with littermate control mice. Although mev/mev osteoclasts develop in the absence of colony-stimulating factor (CSF)-1, nevertheless cultured osteoclasts show increased size in the presence of CSF-1. CSF-1-deficient osteopetrosis (op/op) mutant mice develop severe osteosclerosis. However, doubly homozygous mev/mevop/op mice show an expansion of bone marrow cavities and reduced trabecular bone mass compared with op/op mice. Western blot analysis showed that several proteins that were markedly hyperphosphorylated on tyrosine residues were detected in the motheaten osteoclasts, including a novel 126-kd phosphotyrosine protein. The marked hyperphosphorylation of a 126-kd protein in motheaten osteoclasts suggests that this protein depends on SHP-1 for dephosphorylation. These findings demonstrate that the decreased SHP-1 catalytic activity in me/me and mev/mev mice results in an increased population of activated osteoclasts and consequent reduction in bone density.

Cloning of two new splice variants of Siglec-10 and mapping of the interaction between Siglec-10 and SHP-1.

Using a three-hybrid strategy in yeast, we have cloned a new splice variant of Siglec-10, called Siglec-10 Sv3. This splice variant lacks part of exon 3, but keeps the reading frame, as well as the crucial regions for interaction with Sias and the motifs for intracellular signaling. The expression of Siglec-10 Sv3 in T- and B-cells was detected by RT-PCR. Moreover, cDNA of another new splicing form of Siglec-10, named Siglec-10 Sv4, was identified by RT-PCR. One common characteristic of all Siglec-10 splice forms (except for Siglec-10 Sv2) is their cytoplasmic tail with two ITIMs and one CD150-like sequence. We confirmed the recruitment of SHP-1 to the Siglec-10 cytoplasmic tail by Western blot analysis and demonstrated that this interaction depends on tyrosine phosphorylation. Mutational analyses showed that ITIM Y609 of Siglec-10 and the N-terminal SH2 domain of SHP-1 play a pivotal role in the interaction between Siglec-10 and SHP-1. Finally, we demonstrated that Siglec-10 was not able to bind SAP/SH2d1A, indicating that the so-called CD150-like motif in Siglec-10 might be a docking site for other signal transduction mediators.

Establishment and characterization of pro-B cell lines from motheaten mutant mouse defective in SHP-1 protein tyrosine phosphatase.

Mice homozygous for the motheaten (Hcph(me)) mutation lack a functional SHP-1 protein tyrosine phosphatase, show severe immunologic dysregulation and die at an early age. Severe pneumonitis in me/me mice is associated with abnormal proliferation of macrophages and granulocytes. Overgrowth of macrophages in long term cultures of me/me bone marrow has prevented analyses of lymphopoiesis in vitro. To establish hematopoietic cell lines from me/me mice, we cultured me/me bone marrow with the PA6 stromal cell line in the presence of antagonistic antibody against the receptor (c-Fms) for macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF). In these cultures, overgrowth of M-CSF-dependent macrophages was suppressed by the antagonistic antibody and other hemopoietic cell lineages were generated efficiently from me/me bone marrow. By using this culture system, we established me/me pro-B cell clones (MEBs) with rearranged DH-JH but not VH-DJH. The growth of MEB clones required IL-7 and c-Kit ligand, corresponding to normal pro-B cells which express SHP-1. MEB cells were sensitive to starvation by either IL-7 or c-Kit ligand, resulting in apoptotic death. The present culture system, which supports hematopoiesis of me/me bone marrow, provides useful tools for the determination of the role of SHP-1 in signal transduction of B lymphopoiesis.

Cooperation between SHP-2, phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase and phosphoinositol 5-phosphatase in the Fc gamma RIIb mediated B cell regulation.

Co-clustering B cell receptors (BCR) and type II receptors binding the Fc part of IgG (Fc gamma RIIb) inhibits B cell activation and antibody production. Tyrosine phosphorylation of an intracellular motif of Fc gamma RIIb has been shown to be a prerequisite of the inhibition. After being phosphorylated by BCR-activated tyrosine kinases, the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (P-ITIM) of Fc gamma RIIb recruits SH2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase(s) (PTPs) and polyphosphoinositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) to the vicinity of BCR, which in turn dephosphorylate their specific substrates. This leads to the interruption of signal transduction, consequently to the anergy and/or apoptosis of the cell. The downstream signaling pathways affected by Fc gamma RIIb-BCR co-clustering are not clarified yet, neither the substrates of PTPs are known. We have studied the Fc gamma RIIb mediated B cell inhibition on human Burkitt lymphoma cell line (BL41). From the lysates of BL41 cells SHP-2 and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K), as well as the protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) Lyn bind both to the BCR-co-clustered Fc gamma RIIb and to its P-ITIM peptide. Lyn hyperphosphorylates the P-ITIM associated molecules, including SHIP in the in vitro protein tyrosine kinase activity assay. The P-ITIM-compelled multi-phosphoprotein complex binds to and activates SHP-2, which in turn dephosphorylates SHIP and Shc and probably other substrates. Subcellular localisation of these signaling molecules is regulated by the phosphotyrosine-SH2 domain interactions, thus dephosphorylation may result in the re-direction of Shc and SHIP within the cell, consequently, in the modulation of their activity. Finally, co-clustering Fc gamma RIIb and BCR or Fc gamma RIIb and CD19 on the intact cells inhibited PI3-K activity as detected in the anti-phosphotyrosine (anti-PY) precipitates. The results indicate that SHP-2 bound to and activated by the BCR co-clustered Fc gamma RIIb, may down-regulate PI3-K activity by dephosphorylating a yet unidentified regulatory molecule, which recruits PI3-K to the cell membrane.

Independent roles of SOCS-3 and SHP-2 in the regulation of neuronal gene expression by leukemia inhibitory factor.

The neurokine leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) initiates signaling through heterodimerization of the low affinity LIF receptor (LIFR) and gp130. Tyrosine 759 of gp130 is required for the negative regulation of LIF-mediated signaling by both the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 and the suppressor of cytokine signaling-3 (SOCS-3). We find that SOCS-3 is expressed in the neuronal cell lines SN56 and IMR32 and negatively regulates LIF-stimulated neuronal gene expression. Studies using antisense oligonucleotides targeted to SHP-2 or SOCS-3 indicate that either protein can negatively regulate LIF-stimulated neuronal gene expression independently of the other. Mutagenesis of the cytoplasmic domain of gp130 demonstrates that the four signal transducer and activators of transcription (STAT) binding sites within gp130 are necessary for the induction of vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) reporter genes, with the sites surrounding tyrosines 905 and 915 (Y905 and Y915) being most important in gp130-mediated reporter gene expression. While there are four STAT binding sites within gp130, only those surrounding Y905 and Y915 can mediate STAT1 activation; these results indicate that STAT1 may be essential for normal gp130-stimulated VIP and ChAT expression. Additionally, the negative regulation of signaling mediated by Y759 of gp130 is dependent upon intact STAT sites within the receptor. This indicates that STAT signaling is necessary for LIF- and CNTF-stimulated VIP and ChAT expression and Y759 of gp130 mediates the activities of SHP-2 and SOCS-3, which act to negatively regulate STAT activity.

Somatostatin receptor 1 (SSTR1)-mediated inhibition of cell proliferation correlates with the activation of the MAP kinase cascade: role of the phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP-2.

The mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade represents one of the major regulator of cell growth by hormones and growth factors. However, although the activation of this intracellular pathway has been often regarded as mediator of cell proliferation, in many cell types the increase in MAP kinase (also called extra-cellular signal regulated kinase: ERK) activity may result in cell growth arrest, depending on the length or the intensity of the stimulation. In this review we examine recent data concerning the effects of somatostatin on the MAP kinase cascade through one of its major receptor subtype, the somatostatin receptor 1 (SSTR1), stably expressed in CHO-K1 cells. Somatostatin inhibits the proliferative effects of basic FGF (bFGF) in CHO-SSTR1 cell line. However, in these cells, somatostatin robustly activates the MAP kinase and augments bFGF-induced stimulation of ERK. We show that the activation of ERK via SSTR1 is mediated by the betagamma subunit of a pertussis toxin-sensitive G-protein and requires both the small G protein Ras and the serine/threonine kinase Raf-1. Moreover the phosphatidyl inositol-3kinase and the cytosolic tyrosine kinase c-src participate in the signal transduction regulated by SSTRI to activate ERK, as well as it is involved the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) SHP-2. Previous studies have suggested that somatostatin-stimulated PTP activity mediates the growth inhibitory actions of somatostatin, in CHO-SSTR1 cells. Thus, the activation of SHP-2 by SSTR1 may mediate the antiproliferative activity of somatostatin. SHP-2 may. in turn, regulate the activity of kinases upstream of ERK that require tyrosine dephosphorylation to be activated, such as c-src. Finally, the synergism between somatostatin and bFGF in the activation of ERK results in an increased expression of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21cip/WAF1 as molecular effector of the antiproliferative activity of somatostatin.

Immune signalling: SHP-2 docks at multiple ports.

The protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 functions in many diverse signalling pathways. The recent identification of a SHP-2-binding protein as a homologue of the Grb2-associated adaptor protein Gab1 sheds light on the role of SHP-2 in immune signalling.

The 'Shp'ing news: SH2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatases in cell signaling.

Src homology-2 (SH2) domain-containing phosphatases (Shps) are a small, highly conserved subfamily of protein-tyrosine phosphatases, members of which are present in both vertebrates and invertebrates. The mechanism of regulation of Shps by ligand binding is now well understood. Much is also known about the normal signaling pathways regulated by each Shp and the consequences of Shp deficiency. Recent studies have identified mutations in human Shp2 as the cause of the inherited disorder Noonan syndrome. Shp2 mutations might also contribute to the pathogenesis of some leukemias. In addition, Shp2 might be a key virulence determinant for the important human pathogen Helicobacter pylori. Despite these efforts, however, the key targets of each Shp have remained elusive. Identifying these substrates remains a major challenge for future research.

Sequential involvement of Lck and SHP-1 with MHC-recognizing receptors on NK cells inhibits FcR-initiated tyrosine kinase activation.

Recognition of major histocompatibility (MHC) class I complexes on target cells by killer cell inhibitory receptors (KIR) blocks natural killer (NK) and T cell cytotoxic function. The inhibitory effect of KIR ligation requires the phosphotyrosine-dependent association of KIR with the cytoplasmic SH2-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. Using a somatic genetic model, we first define a requirement for the Src family protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) Lck in mediating KIR tyrosine phosphorylation. We then investigate how KIR ligation interrupts PTK-dependent NK cell activation signals. Specifically, we show that KIR ligation inhibits the Fc receptor (FcR)-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the FcR-associated zeta signaling chain, the PTK ZAP-70, and phospholipase C gamma. Overexpression of catalytically inactive SHP-1 (acting as a dominant negative) restores the tyrosine phosphorylation of these signaling events and reverses KIR-mediated inhibition of NK cell cytotoxic function. These results suggest sequential roles for Lck and SHP-1 in the inhibition of PTK following MHC recognition by NK cells.

Site-specific incorporation of a phosphotyrosine mimetic reveals a role for tyrosine phosphorylation of SHP-2 in cell signaling.

The regulation of protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) SHP-2 is proposed to involve tyrosine phosphorylation on two tail tyrosine residues. Using "expressed protein ligation", nonhydrolyzable phosphotyrosine analogs were introduced at known phosphorylation sites in SHP-2. Biochemical analysis suggests that a phosphonate at Tyr542 interacts intramolecularly with the N-terminal SH2 domain to relieve basal inhibition of the PTPase, whereas a phosphonate at Tyr-580 stimulates the PTPase activity by interaction with the C-terminal SH2 domain. Microinjection experiments indicate that a single phosphorylation of Tyr-542 of SHP-2 is sufficient to activate the MAP kinase pathway in living cells. These studies support a novel mechanism explaining how tyrosine phosphorylation of a PTPase is important in signal transduction.

Death receptors bind SHP-1 and block cytokine-induced anti-apoptotic signaling in neutrophils.

Death domain-containing receptors of the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)/nerve growth factor (NGF) family can induce apoptosis upon activation in many cellular systems. We show here that a conserved phosphotyrosine-containing motif within the death domain of these receptors can mediate inhibitory functions. The Src homology domain 2 (SH2)-containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1), SHP-2 and SH2-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) bound to this motif in a caspase-independent but cell-dependent manner. We also found that stimulation of death receptors disrupted anti-apoptosis pathways initiated (at least under certain conditions) by survival factors in neutrophils. In these cells, activation of the tyrosine kinase Lyn, an important anti-apoptotic event, was prevented as a consequence of death-receptor stimulation, most likely through association of the receptor with activated SHP-1. Thus, we provide molecular and functional evidence for negative signaling by death receptors.

Association of biliary glycoprotein with protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 in malignant colon epithelial cells.

Biliary glycoprotein (Bgp) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and the carcinoembryonic antigen family. Previous studies have shown that Bgp functions as an intercellular adhesion molecule and a canalicular bile salt transporter. Moreover, we and others demonstrated that Bgp can inhibit colonic and prostatic tumor cell growth in vivo, through a mechanism which depends on sequences present in its cytoplasmic domain. In this study, we have examined the possibility that the cytoplasmic domain of Bgp can interact with signal transduction molecules. We showed that tyrosine phosphorylated Bgp, expressed in mouse colon carcinoma CT51 cells, could reversibly associate with protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. Mutation of either of two tyrosine residues present in the cytoplasmic domain of Bgp abrogated SHP-1 binding, suggesting that this association was mediated by both tyrosine residues. Similarly, we noted that either of the two SH2 domains of SHP-1 could bind tyrosine phosphorylated Bgp in vitro. It is therefore conceivable that some of the functions of Bgp are mediated through its ability to induce intracellular protein tyrosine dephosphorylation.

SHP-2 is involved in heterodimer specific loss of phosphorylation of Tyr771 in the PDGF beta-receptor.

We have previously shown that the binding site for GTPase activating protein of Ras (RasGAP) in the PDGF beta-receptor, Tyr771, is phosphorylated to a much lower extent in the heterodimeric configuration of PDGF alpha- and beta-receptors, compared to the PDGF beta-receptor homodimer. The decreased recruitment of the RasGAP to the receptor leads to prolonged activation of the Ras/MAP kinase pathway, which could explain the increase in mitogenicity seen upon induction of heterodimers. The molecular mechanism underlying these differences was investigated. We could show that the loss of phosphorylation of Tyr771 was dependent on presence of intact binding sites for the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 on the PDGF beta-receptor. Thus, in PDGF receptor mutants in which binding of SHP-2 was lost, a higher degree of phosphorylation of Tyr771 was seen, while other phosphorylation sites in the receptor remained virtually unaffected. Thus, SHP-2 appears to play an important role in modulating phosphorylation of Y771, thereby controlling RasGAP recruitment and Ras/MAP kinase signaling in the heterodimeric configuration of the PDGF receptors.

The protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 binds platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) and forms a distinct signaling complex during platelet aggregation. Evidence for a mechanistic link between PECAM-1- and integrin-mediated cellular signaling.

Platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) is a homophilic adhesion receptor that mediates leukocyte/endothelial cell interactions that take place during transendothelial migration. Recent reports have shown that the binding of certain anti-PECAM-1 antibodies results in up-regulation of integrin function on the surface of leukocytes and platelets, suggesting that PECAM-1 may be capable of transmitting information into the cell following its engagement. PECAM-1 isolated from resting or activated but nonaggregated platelets was phosphorylated predominantly on serine residues; however, PECAM-1 derived from activated, aggregated platelets was strongly phosphorylated on tyrosine. Synthetic tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides derived from five different regions within the cytoplasmic domain of PECAM-1 were screened for their ability to associate with cytoplasmic signaling molecules. The protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 was found to interact specifically with two different PECAM-1 phosphopeptides containing highly conserved phosphatase-binding motifs on PECAM-1 with the sequences VQpY663TEV and TVpY686SEV. More important, SHP-2 bound not only PECAM-1 phosphopeptides, but also became associated with full-length cellular PECAM-1 during the platelet aggregation process, and this interaction was mediated by the amino-terminal Src homology 2 domains of the phosphatase. Since SHP-2 normally serves as a positive regulator of signal transduction, its association with activated PECAM-1 suggests a number of potential mechanisms by which PECAM-1 engagement might be coupled to integrin activation in vascular cells.

Interaction of growth hormone-activated STATs with SH2-containing phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 and nuclear JAK2 tyrosine kinase.

Growth hormone (GH) rapidly stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation followed by serine/threonine phosphorylation of multiple cytoplasmic STAT transcription factors, including one, STAT5b, that is uniquely responsive to the temporal pattern of plasma GH stimulation in rat liver and is proposed to play a central role in the activation of male-expressed liver genes by GH pulses in vivo (Waxman, D. J., Ram, P. A., Park, S. H., and Choi, H. K. (1995) J. Biol. Chem. 270, 13262-13270). We now show that JAK2, the GH receptor-associated tyrosine kinase, is present both in the cytosol and in the nucleus in cultured liver cells and in rat liver in vivo and that GH-activated STAT3 but not STAT5b becomes associated with nuclear JAK2. GH is also shown to activate by 3-4-fold SHP-1, a phosphotyrosine phosphatase that contains two src homology 2 (SH2) domains. GH also induces nuclear translocation and binding of SHP-1 to tyrosine-phosphorylated STAT5b, suggesting that this GH-activated phosphatase may play a role in dephosphorylation leading to deactivation of nuclear STAT5b following the termination of a plasma GH pulse in male rat liver in vivo. No such association of SHP-1 with GH-activated STAT3 was detected, a finding that could help explain the marked desensitization of STAT3, but not STAT5b, to subsequent GH pulses following an initial GH activation event.
