Direct binding of Shc, Grb2, SHP-2 and p40 to the murine granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor.

Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mediates the proliferation, differentiation and activation of cells in the granulocytic lineage. However, knowledge about the specific signaling pathways utilized by the G-CSF receptor (G-CSF-R) upon ligand binding remains limited. In this report, we show rapid phosphorylation of Shc upon stimulation of NFS-60 cells with G-CSF, and inducible association of Shc and Grb2 with the G-CSF-R in these cells. Using a tyrosine-phosphorylated GST-G-CSF-R fusion we demonstrate that Shc, Grb2 and SHP-2 directly bind the receptor via their respective SH2 domains, suggesting multiple routes of MAPK activation from the G-CSF-R are possible. In addition, we have identified an unknown p40 molecule which is associated with the G-CSF-R transiently following G-CSF stimulation, and a constitutively-associated p37 molecule.

[Phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP-1, somatostatin and prostate cancer].

We review the mechanisms involved in prostatic growth based on androgens and product of neuroendocrine secretion, with special reference to the role of somatostatin (SS) in the inhibition of neoplastic growth. Our contributions in the field confirm the antiproliferative effect of SS on the prostate is mediated by phosphotyrosine phosphatase SHP-1, that is present in human prostate. This enzyme plays a role in the control of prostatic cell proliferation and in the progression of prostate cancer. Besides, we consider its presence may determine the therapeutic potential of SS in the control of prostate cancer.

Mechanisms of anemia in SHP-1 protein tyrosine phosphatase-deficient "viable motheaten" mice.

OBJECTIVE: Viable motheaten mice (abbreviated gene symbol me(v)) are deficient in SHP-1, a critical negative regulator of signal transduction in hematopoietic cells. These mice exhibit severe immune dysfunction accompanied by hyperproliferation of myeloid cells, widespread inflammatory lesions, and regenerative anemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanisms underlying anemia in me(v)/me(v) mice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Multiple hematologic parameters, osmotic fragility, and erythropoietin levels were measured to characterize the anemia in me(v)/me(v) mice. B-cell-deficient me(v)/me(v) Igh-6(null) mice were generated to assess the role of anti-erythrocyte antibodies. Coombs assays and flow cytometry were carried out for detection of anti-erythrocyte antibodies. Oxidant production by macrophages, glutathione levels, and lipid peroxidation products in erythrocytes were measured, as was the impact of oxidant on the ultrastructure of me(v)/me(v) erythrocytes. Erythroid maturation and erythrocyte plasma membrane integrity were assessed with flow cytometry by evaluating CD71 expression and annexin V labeling. RESULTS: The regenerative anemia of me(v)/me(v) mice was associated with erythrocyte changes that were independent of the presence of anti-erythrocyte antibodies. Erythrocytes from me(v)/me(v) mice had increased fragility and heightened susceptibility to oxidant damage. Macrophages from me(v)/me(v) mice demonstrated a higher basal level of oxidant production and enhanced production after stimulation. Oxidant damage in me(v)/me(v) erythrocytes was evidenced by a significant elevation of lipid peroxidation and diminished levels of glutathione. CONCLUSION: Our results support the hypothesis that as a consequence of severe inflammatory disease, me(v)/me(v) erythrocytes are subject to exceptionally high oxidative stress resulting in oxidation of phospholipids in the erythrocyte membrane with subsequent hemolysis.

Revealing mechanisms for SH2 domain mediated regulation of the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2.

The crystal structure of the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 reveals the mechanism of auto-inhibition of phosphatase activity by its SH2 domains. Phosphotyrosine peptide stimulation of the phosphatase activity, resulting from peptide binding to the N-terminal SH2 domain, is linked to conformational changes within the protein, including an unprecedented allosteric transition of the N-terminal SH2 domain.

A porcine cell surface receptor identified by monoclonal antibodies to SWC3 is a member of the signal regulatory protein family and associates with protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1.

SWC3 was defined at the First International Swine CD Workshop as a specific myelomonocytic antigen of 230 kDa with mAbs 74-22-15, 6F3 and DH59B. In this report, we describe two new mAbs (BL1H7 and BA1C11) that react selectively with granulocytes, monocytes and macrophages. These monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) recognize a molecule in the range of 90-115 kDa in immunoprecipitation and/or Western blotting analyses. Two-colour FACS analyses showed that the distribution of BL1H7 and BA1C11 antigens was identical to that of SWC3. Moreover, in this assay, mAb 74-22-15 appeared to partially block the binding of mAbs BL1H7 and BA1C11, suggesting that all these mAbs reacted with the same or spatially close epitopes. Cross-blocking analyses indicated that it was the case with mAbs 74-22-15 and BL1H7. Immunoprecipitation experiments with mAbs 74-22-15, BL1H7 and BA1C11, followed by immunoblotting with mAb BL1H7 confirmed that all three mAbs recognize the same molecule. Analysis of the N-terminal sequence carried out on the affinity purified protein revealed homology with members of signal regulatory protein (SIRP) family. Like other members of this family, after treatment with sodium pervanadate, SWC3 became phosphorylated in tyrosines, and associated with the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1.

The SHP-2 tyrosine phosphatase: signaling mechanisms and biological functions.

Cellular biological activities are tightly controlled by intracellular signaling processes initiated by extracellular signals. Protein tyrosine phosphatases, which remove phosphate groups from phosphorylated signaling molecules, play equally important tyrosine roles as protein tyrosine kinases in signal transduction. SHP-2, a cytoplasmic SH2 domain containing protein tyrosine phosphatase, is involved in the signaling pathways of a variety of growth factors and cytokines. Recent studies have clearly demonstrated that this phosphatase plays an important role in transducing signal relay from the cell surface to the nucleus, and is a critical intracellular regulator in mediating cell proliferation and differentiation.

p56lck, LFA-1 and PI3K but not SHP-2 interact with GM1- or GM3-enriched microdomains in a CD4-p56lck association-dependent manner.

We previously showed that the association of CD4 and G(M3) ganglioside induced by CD4 ligand binding was required for the down-regulation of adhesion and that aggregation of ganglioside-enriched domains was accompanied by transient co-localization of LFA-1 (lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1), PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) and CD4. We also showed that these proteins co-localized with the G(M1) ganglioside that partially co-localized with G(M3) in these domains. In the present study, we show that CD4-p56(lck) association in CD4 signalling is required for the redistribution of p56(lck), PI3K and LFA-1 in ganglioside-enriched domains, since ganglioside aggregation and recruitment of these proteins were not observed in a T-cell line (A201) expressing the mutant form of CD4 that does not bind p56(lck). In addition, we show that although these proteins associated in different ways with G(M1) and G(M3), all of the associations were dependent on CD4-p56(lck) association. Gangliosides could associate with these proteins that differ in affinity binding and could be modified following CD4 signalling. Our results suggest that through these associations, gangliosides transiently sequestrate these proteins and consequently inhibit LFA-1-dependent adhesion. Furthermore, while structural diversity of gangliosides may allow association with distinct proteins, we show that the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 (Src homology 2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2), also required for the down-regulation of LFA-1-dependent adhesion, transiently and partially co-localized with PI3K and p56(lck) in detergent-insoluble membranes without association with G(M1) or G(M3). We propose that CD4 ligation and binding with p56(lck) and their interaction with G(M3) and/or G(M1) gangliosides induce recruitment of distinct proteins important for CD4 signalling to form a multimolecular signalling complex.

SHP-1/immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif-independent inhibitory signalling through murine natural killer cell receptor Ly-49A in a transfected B-cell line.

Ly-49A is a member of the Ly-49 family of mouse natural killer cell receptors that inhibit cytotoxicity upon recognition of their ligands, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules, on the target cell surface. Although Ly-49A has an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) in its cytoplasmic tail, relatively little is known about the mechanisms underlying its inhibitory function. We report here that antibody-mediated co-ligation of the B-cell receptor (BCR) with the transfected Ly-49A molecule results in abrogation of BCR-induced interleukin-2 (IL-2) secretion and mild reduction in activation of Erk1/2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases in the B-cell line A20. Surprisingly, BCR-induced calcium mobilization was unaffected by cross-linking of BCR with Ly-49A. Furthermore, substitution of the single tyrosine residue in ITIM with phenylalanine, did not result in a complete loss of inhibitory function, as measured by BCR-induced IL-2 secretion. Deletion of the N-terminal 37 amino acid peptide, which includes the ITIM, did abrogate the inhibitory activity. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that, upon induction of tyrosine phosphorylation, Ly-49A recruits tyrosine phosphatase src-homology 2 (SH2) containing tyrosine phosphatases-1 (SHP-1), but not inositol phosphatase src-homology 2 (SH2) containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP), and that the tyrosine residue in the ITIM is critical for this interaction. These results suggest that transfected Ly-49A utilizes two different inhibitory mechanisms in B-cell signalling: ITIM-dependent and ITIM-independent.

Prominent 85-kDa oligomannosidic glycoproteins of rat brain are signal regulatory proteins and include the SHP substrate-1 for tyrosine phosphatases.

The glycoprotein component in rat brain reacting most strongly with Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) on western blots migrates as an 85-kDa band. GNA identifies mannose-rich oligosaccharides because it is highly specific for terminal alpha-mannose residues. After purification of this 85-kDa glycoprotein band by chromatography on GNA-agarose and preparative gel electrophoresis, binding of other lectins demonstrated the presence of fucose and a trace of galactose, but no sialic acid. Treatment with N-Glycanase or endoglycosidase H produced a 65-kDa band, indicating that it consisted of about one-fourth N-linked oligomannosidic carbohydrate moieties. High-performance anion-exchange chromatography and fluorescence-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis indicated that the major carbohydrate moiety is a heptasaccharide with the structure Manalpha1-6(Manalpha1-3)Manalpha1-6(Manalpha1-3) Manbeta1-4Glc-NAcbeta1-4GlcNAc (Man5GlcNAc2). Determination of amino acid sequences of peptides produced by endoproteinase digestion demonstrated that this 85-kDa mannose-rich glycoprotein component contained the SHP substrate-1 for phosphotyrosine phosphatases and at least one other member of the signal-regulatory protein (SIRP) family. The unusually high content of oligomannosidic carbohydrate moieties on these receptor-like members of the immunoglobulin superfamily in neural tissue could be of functional significance for intercellular adhesion or signaling.

Gab1, SHP-2 and other novel regulators of Ras: targets for anticancer drug discovery?

Ras proteins function as molecular switches that cycle between an inactive GDP-bound state, and an active GTP-bound form that triggers different signaling pathways. Because Ras can integrate both proliferative and anti-apoptotic stimuli, GTP-locked Ras mutants play a critical role in the development of human tumors. Moreover, wild-type Ras relays the transforming potential of a number of molecules involved in tumor development, including protein tyrosine kinases. Consequently, the molecular intermediates that control Ras activation are potential targets of anti-tumoral pharmacology. Besides the canonical Shc/Grb2/Sos module classically involved in Ras activation, novel effectors have recently been shown to participate in this pathway, including the multivalent Grb2-associated docking protein Gab1, the protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2, and the phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Recent genetic advances have shown that these proteins are critically involved in cell proliferation and survival, further suggesting that they could be interesting targets for selective tumor therapy. Here we review recent progress in our understanding of the role of Gab1 and its partners in Ras activation, and other survival/proliferation pathways. Implications for the pharmacological manipulation of this pathway in the treatment of cancer will also be discussed.

Differential tyrosine phosphorylation of inhibitory versus activating Ly-49 receptor proteins and their recruitment of SHP-1 phosphatase.

Killer cell inhibitory receptors represent a family of p58/70-Ig-like proteins expressed on the surface of human NK cells. Engagement of class I MHC by killer cell inhibitory receptors turns off the lytic machinery of NK cells. This receptor/ligand interaction results in phosphorylation of intracellular tyrosine residues of p58/70 proteins. Murine NK cells express surface receptors of an unrelated family of type II lectin-like proteins, Ly-49, that have similar functions. Ly-49A, -C, and -G2 represent murine inhibitory receptors. However, Ly-49D functions as an activation receptor on the surface of NK cells. This dichotomy of function between Ly-49 family members suggested different signaling events upon receptor/ligand interaction. Here we demonstrate that: 1) in transfected Cos7 and murine NK cells, Ly-49A, -C, and -G2 are phosphorylated following pervanadate stimulation, whereas Ly-49D is not; 2) mAb-induced receptor ligation mediates tyrosine phosphorylation of Ly-49A and -G2, but not Ly-49D; 3) SHP-1 coprecipitates with Ly-49A and -G2 following receptor phosphorylation; and 4) tyrosine phosphorylation of Ly-49 inhibitory receptors depends on tyrosine residues restricted to the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif. Our data further support the involvement of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs as crucial sequences regulating receptor-mediated inhibitory functions in NK cells.

Reduction of hematopoietic cell-specific tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 gene expression in natural killer cell lymphoma and various types of lymphomas/leukemias : combination analysis with cDNA expression array and tissue microarray.

To investigate the lymphomagenesis of NK/T lymphoma, we comprehensively and systematically analyzed the expression pattern of the human NK/T cell line (NK-YS) genome by cDNA expression array and tissue microarray. We detected significant changes in the gene expression of NK-YS cell line: an increase in 18 and a decrease in 20 genes compared to normal NK cells or peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Among these genes, we found a strong decrease in hematopoietic cell specific protein-tyrosine-phosphatase SH-PTP1 (SHP1) mRNA by cDNA expression array and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. Further analysis with standard immunohistochemistry and tissue microarray, which used 207 paraffin-embedded specimens of various kinds of malignant lymphomas, showed that 100% of NK/T lymphoma specimens and more than 95% of various types of malignant lymphoma were negative for SHP1 protein expression. On the other hand, SHP1 protein was strongly expressed in the mantle zone and interfollicular zone lymphocytes in reactive lymphoid hyperplasia specimens. In addition, various kinds of hematopoietic cell lines, particularly the highly aggressive lymphoma/leukemia lines, lacked SHP1 expression in vitro, suggesting that loss of SHP1 expression may be related to not only malignant transformation, but also tumor cell aggressiveness. SHP1 expression could not be induced in either of two NK/T cell lines by phorbol ester, suggesting that genetic impairment or modification with methylation of SHP1 DNA could be one of the critical events in the pathogenesis of NK/T lymphoma. This evidence strongly suggests that loss of SHP1 gene expression plays an important role in multistep tumorigenesis, possibly as an anti-oncogene in the wide range of lymphomas/leukemias as well as NK/T lymphomas.

The orphan receptor SHP and the three-hybrid interference assay.

The three-hybrid interference method described here is similar to previous interference assays based on the two-hybrid system. In these approaches the presence of a third protein disrupts the interaction between the two different hybrid proteins. The three-hybrid interference assay circumvents a potential problem that arises when the third protein is itself a direct transcriptional repressor by preventing the decrease in transcriptional readout that could occur if the third protein is recruited indirectly to the two-hybrid protein complex. This three-hybrid method should be applicable to any third protein that is a transcriptional repressor. To use this method to explore the effects of such repressors on protein-protein interactions, however, it is important to confirm that the VP16-repressor fusion does not retain active repressor function. It is also appropriate to compare the effects of the VP16-repressor fusion to those with the repressor alone. Finally, it is essential to confirm any conclusions from this or any other single method to study protein-protein interactions with alternative independent approaches.
