The aim of this study was to elucidate the cellular mechanisms of action of epidermal growth factor (EGF) inhibition of parietal cell secretion. EGF effects on histamine- and carbachol-stimulated [14C]aminopyrine (AP) uptake and intrinsic factor (IF) secretion were evaluated in isolated rabbit parietal cells. EGF inhibited histamine-stimulated [14C]AP uptake and IF secretion through a reduction in stimulated adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) levels. EGF decreased the phosphorylation of a cytosolic 30-kDa, histamine-stimulated, cAMP-dependent protein kinase substrate. These effects on histamine-stimulated activation were reversed by pertussis toxin preincubation. EGF inhibited carbachol-stimulated [14C]AP uptake and IF secretion, but did not alter the carbachol-stimulated Ca2+ transient. These results indicate that EGF inhibits histamine-stimulated secretion through the inhibitory Gi guanosine 5'-triphosphate-binding protein and carbachol-stimulated secretion through a mechanism independent of the activation of an increase in intracellular Ca2+.

Down-regulation of activated and ubiquitinated growth factor (GF) receptors by endocytosis and subsequent lysosomal degradation ensures attenuation of GF signaling. The ubiquitin-binding adaptor protein Eps15 (epidermal growth factor receptor [EGFR] pathway substrate 15) functions in endocytosis of such receptors. Here, we identify an Eps15 isoform, Eps15b, and demonstrate its expression in human cells and conservation across vertebrate species. Although both Eps15 and Eps15b interact with the endosomal sorting protein Hrs (hepatocyte growth factor–regulated tyrosine kinase substrate) in vitro, we find that Hrs specifically binds Eps15b in vivo (whereas adaptor protein 2 preferentially interacts with Eps15). Although Eps15 mainly localizes to clathrin-coated pits at the plasma membrane, Eps15b localizes to Hrs-positive microdomains on endosomes. Eps15b overexpression, similarly to Hrs overexpression, inhibits ligand-mediated degradation of EGFR, whereas Eps15 is without effect. Similarly, depletion of Eps15b but not Eps15 delays degradation and promotes recycling of EGFR. These results indicate that Eps15b is an endosomally localized isoform of Eps15 that is present in the Hrs complex via direct Hrs interaction and important for the sorting function of this complex.

And Function

Membrane vesicles shed from intact A-431 epidermoid carcinoma cells and harvested in the presence of Ca2+ contained epidermal-growth-factor (EGF) receptor/kinase substrates of apparent molecular masses 185, 85, 70, 55, 38 and 27 kDa. The 38 kDa substrate (p38) was recognized by an antibody that had been raised against the human placental EGF receptor/kinase substrate calpactin II (lipocortin I). The A-431 and placental substrates, isolated by immunoprecipitation after phosphorylation in situ, yielded identical phosphopeptide maps upon limited proteolytic digestion with each of five different enzymes. The A-431-cell vesicular p38 is therefore calpactin II. EGF treatment of the intact A-431 cells before inducing vesiculation was not necessary for the substrate to be present within the vesicles. Our data thus indicate that receptor internalization is not a prerequisite for receptor-mediated phosphorylation of calpactin II. The ability of the protein to function as a substrate for the receptor/kinase depended upon the continued presence of Ca2+ during the vesicle-isolation procedure. EGF-stimulated phosphorylation of calpactin II was much less pronounced in vesicles prepared from A-431 cells in the absence of Ca2+, although comparable amounts of the protein were detectable by immunoblotting. Calpactin II therefore appears to be sequestered in a Ca2+-modulated manner within shed vesicles, along with at least four other major targets for the EGF receptor/kinase. The vesicle preparation may be a useful model system in which to study the phosphorylation and function of potentially important membrane-associated substrates for the receptor.

Abstract Epidermal growth factor (EGF) attenuated hCG-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity in rat luteal and follicular membranes. H7, an equipotent serine/threonine protein kinase inhibitor of cAMP-dependent protein kinases, cGMP-dependent protein kinases, and lipid-dependent protein kinase C, did not effect the ability of EGF to decrease hCG-responsive adenylyl cyclase activity, suggesting that a serine/threonine phosphorylation event catalyzed by these kinases was not critically involved in EGF-induced desensitization. Likewise, pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of a 40-kDa luteal membrane protein, which exhibited immunoreactivity with an antibody against Giα, did not hinder the ability of EGF to attenuate hCG-stimulated adenylyl cyclase activity, indicating that Gi did not mediate EGF-induced desensitization. Rather, EGF-induced heterologous desensitization of LH/CG receptor in ovarian membranes was closely associated with the specific and prominent tyrosine phosphorylation of the 170-kDa EGF receptor. Both EGF-stimulated autophosphorylation of EGF receptor and EGF-induced LH/CG receptor desensitization were attenuated by genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. These results suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of the 170-kDa EGF receptor is a necessary component of the signaling pathway in EGF-induced heterologous desensitization of the LH/CG receptor.
