Β2 Integrins

Abstract β2 integrins are involved in the recruitment of leukocytes to inflammatory sites and in cellular activation. We demonstrate that ligation of CD11b (Mac-1, CR3) or CD11c (p150, CR4) alpha chains of β2 integrins by mAbs or soluble chimeric CD23 (sCD23) on human freshly isolated monocytes rapidly stimulates high levels of interleukin-1β production. This induction takes place at the transcriptional level and is regulated by members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family. Indeed, stimulation of monocytes through engagement of CD11b or CD11c results in the phosphorylation and activation of ERK1, ERK2, and p38/SAPK2 MAP kinases. U0126, a potent inhibitor of the upstream activator of ERK1/2, ie, MEK1/2, suppresses IL-1β messenger RNA (mRNA) expression in a dose-dependent fashion, showing the implication of this pathway in the transcriptional control of IL-1β production. On the other hand, inhibition of p38 by SB203580 indicates that this MAPK is involved in the control of IL-1β production at both transcriptional and translational levels. Together these data demonstrate that ligation of CD11b and CD11c β2 integrins by mAbs or sCD23 fusion proteins triggers the activation of 2 distinct MAPK signaling pathways that cooperate in controlling IL-1β synthesis at different levels.

Regulation Functions

Mitogen Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK) pathway is the most commonly studied signaling mechanisms, consisting of different groups of protein kinases that participate in regularly connecting interpretation of external stimuli that can change in gene expression or cellular organization within eukaryotic systems. The MAP kinase pathways functions in plants cell signaling (intra- and extra). MAPK cascades follow a response system. MAP kinases are the component of kinase constituents that deliver signals from sensors to responders in eukaryotes including plants. Several pathways are activated under different environmental stresses. Stimulating agents may be biological (biotic) like microbial infections or environmental (abiotic) like temperatures threshold, high salt concentration, drought, heavy metal, Ultra-violet radiation, ozone gases and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The involvement of MAPK signaling pathway in different stresses has been widely studied. In this review we also try to highlight MAPK cascades, its regulation, functions and recent findings in various cellular processes against stress conditions.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a recurrent allergic skin disease caused by genetic and environmental factors. Patients with AD may experience immune imbalance, increased levels of mast cells, immunoglobulin (Ig) E and pro-inflammatory factors (Cyclooxygenase, COX-2 and inducible NO synthase, iNOS). While spilanthol (SP) has anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, its effect on AD remains to be explored. To develop a new means of SP, inflammation-related symptoms of AD were alleviated, and 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) was used to induce AD-like skin lesions in BALB/c mice. Histopathological analysis was used to examine mast cells and eosinophils infiltration in AD-like skin lesions. The levels of IgE, IgG1 and IgG2a were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Western blot was used for analysis of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways and COX-2 and iNOS protein expression. Topical SP treatment reduced serum IgE and IgG2a levels and suppressed COX-2 and iNOS expression via blocked mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways in DNCB-induced AD-like lesions. Histopathological examination revealed that SP reduced epidermal thickness and collagen accumulation and inhibited mast cells and eosinophils infiltration into the AD-like lesions skin. These results indicate that SP may protect against AD skin lesions through inhibited MAPK signaling pathways and may diminish the infiltration of inflammatory cells to block allergic inflammation.

Platyphyllenone is a type of diarylheptanoid that exhibits anti-inflammatory and chemoprotective effects. However, its effect on oral cancer remains unclear. In this study, we investigated whether platyphyllenone can promote apoptosis and autophagy in SCC-9 and SCC-47 cells. We found that it dose-dependently promoted the cleavage of PARP; caspase-3, -8, and -9 protein expression; and also led to cell cycle arrest at the G2/M phase. Platyphyllenone up-regulated LC3-II and p62 protein expression in both SCC-9 and SCC-47 cell lines, implying that it can induce autophagy. Furthermore, the results demonstrated that platyphyllenone significantly decreased p-AKT and increased p-JNK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway in a dose-dependent manner. The specific inhibitors of p-JNK1/2 also reduced platyphyllenone-induced cleavage of PARP, caspase-3, and caspase -8, LC3-II and p62 protein expression. These findings are the first to demonstrate that platyphyllenone can induce both autophagy and apoptosis in oral cancers, and it is expected to provide a therapeutic option as a chemopreventive agent against oral cancer proliferation.

ABSTRACT Bacterial phosphothreonine lyases have been identified to be type III secretion system (T3SS) effectors that irreversibly dephosphorylate host mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling to promote infection. However, the effects of phosphothreonine lyase on nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling remain largely unknown. In this study, we detected significant phosphothreonine lyase-dependent p65 degradation during Edwardsiella piscicida infection in macrophages, and this degradative effect was blocked by the protease inhibitor MG132. Further analysis revealed that phosphothreonine lyase promotes the dephosphorylation and ubiquitination of p65 by inhibiting the phosphorylation of mitogen- and stress-activated protein kinase-1 (MSK1) and by inhibiting the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-related kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38α, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). Moreover, we revealed that the catalytic active site of phosphothreonine lyase plays a critical role in regulating the MAPK-MSK1-p65 signaling axis. Collectively, the mechanism described here expands our understanding of the pathogenic effector in not only regulating MAPK signaling but also regulating p65. These findings uncover a new mechanism by which pathogenic bacteria overcome host innate immunity to promote pathogenesis.

Scaffold proteins of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) intracellular signal transduction pathways mediate the efficient and specific activation of the relevant MAPK signaling modules. Previously, our group and others have identified c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK)/stress-activated protein kinase-associated protein 1 (JSAP1, also known as JNK-interacting protein 3) as a scaffold protein for JNK MAPK pathways. Although JSAP1 is expressed in the testis in adults, its expression during development has not been investigated. In addition, it is unknown which types of cells in the testis express the scaffold protein. Here, we examined the expression of JSAP1 in the testis of mice aged 14 days, 20 days, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. The specificity of the anti-JSAP1 antibody was evaluated from its reactivity to exogenously expressed JSAP1 and a structurally related protein, and by antigen-absorption experiments. The immunohistochemical analyses with the specific antibody showed that the JSAP1 protein was selectively expressed in the spermatogonia and spermatocytes, but not in other cell types, including spermatids and somatic cells, during development. However, not all spermatogonia and spermatocytes were immunopositive either, especially in the 12-week-old mouse testis. Furthermore, we found by Western blotting that the expression levels of JSAP1 protein vary during development; there is high expression until 6 weeks after birth, which approximately corresponds to the end of the first wave of spermatogenesis. Collectively, these results suggest that JSAP1 function may be important in spermatogenic cells during early postnatal development.

The adaptor protein APPL1 mediates the stimulatory effect of adiponectin on p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we show that, in C2C12 cells, overexpression or suppression of APPL1 enhanced or suppressed, respectively, adiponectin-stimulated p38 MAPK upstream kinase cascade, consisting of transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MKK3). In vitro affinity binding and coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that TAK1 and MKK3 bind to different regions of APPL1, suggesting that APPL1 functions as a scaffolding protein to facilitate adiponectin-stimulated p38 MAPK activation. Interestingly, suppressing APPL1 had no effect on TNFα-stimulated p38 MAPK phosphorylation in C2C12 myotubes, indicating that the stimulatory effect of APPL1 on p38 MAPK activation is selective. Taken together, our study demonstrated that the TAK1-MKK3 cascade mediates adiponectin signaling and uncovers a scaffolding role of APPL1 in regulating the TAK1-MKK3-p38 MAPK pathway, specifically in response to adiponectin stimulation.

ABSTRACTHost genotype influences the severity of murine Lyme borreliosis, caused by the spirochetal bacteriumBorrelia burgdorferi. C57BL/6 (B6) mice develop mild Lyme arthritis, whereas C3H/HeN (C3H) mice develop severe Lyme arthritis. Differential expression of interleukin 10 (IL-10) has long been associated with mouse strain differences in Lyme pathogenesis; however, the underlying mechanism(s) of this genotype-specific IL-10 regulation remained elusive. Herein we reveal a cAMP-mediated mechanism of IL-10 regulation in B6 macrophages that is substantially diminished in C3H macrophages. Under cAMP and CD14-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling, B6 macrophages stimulated withB. burgdorferiproduce increased amounts of IL-10 and decreased levels of arthritogenic cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF). cAMP relaxes chromatin, while p38 increases binding of the transcription factors signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and specific protein 1 (SP1) to the IL-10 promoter, leading to increased IL-10 production in B6 bone marrow-derived monocytes (BMDMs). Conversely, macrophages derived from arthritis-susceptible C3H mice possess significantly less endogenous cAMP, produce less IL-10, and thus are ill equipped to mitigate the damaging consequences ofB. burgdorferi-induced TNF. Intriguingly, an altered balance between anti-inflammatory and proinflammatory cytokines and CD14-dependent regulatory mechanisms also is operative in primary human peripheral blood-derived monocytes, providing potential insight into the clinical spectrum of human Lyme disease. In line with this notion, we have demonstrated that cAMP-enhancing drugs increase IL-10 production in myeloid cells, thus curtailing inflammation associated with murine Lyme borreliosis. Discovery of novel treatments or repurposing of FDA-approved cAMP-modulating medications may be a promising avenue for treatment of patients with adverse clinical outcomes, including certain post-Lyme complications, in whom dysregulated immune responses may play a role.

This study aimed to explore the analgesic effect of snake neurotoxin combined with gabapentin (Gab) on neuropathic pain in rats with chronic compression injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve based on the nanotechnology. Firstly, various solutions were prepared to obtain the inner water phase, the oil phase, the outer water phase, and the dilution phase. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic) Acid (PLGA) and polyethylene glycol-poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PEG-PLGA) were added to the prepared oil phase solution to obtain the PLGA snake neurotoxin nanocapsule and PEG-PLGA snake neurotoxin nanocapsule, respectively. After the nanocapsules were obtained, a rat CCI model was further modelled, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) content in the rat brain tissue was analyzed and tested by the kit, and the optimal physical conditions for preparing the nanocapsules were tested. In order to test the effect of nanocapsules on the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway, the rats were divided into Control group, Sham group, CCI group, Gabapentin (Gab) group, and PEG-PLGA snake neurotoxin nanocapsule + Gab group. The rats in different groups were given abdominal injections to compare relevant indicators of signal pathway. In the experiment, neuropathic pain was related to changes in ROS content, and snake neurotoxin nanocapsules could reduce the ROS content; PLGA snake neurotoxin nanocapsules and PEG-PLGA snake neurotoxin nanocapsules had encapsulation efficiencys of 24.7% and 22.8% and drug loading of 3.28% and 3.02%, respectively, and the particle sizes of prepared nanocapsules were 760 nm~1,150 nm. Besides, the phase transition temperature of about 50 °C and the light time of 1 h can accelerate the release of nanocapsules to the greatest extent; and the snake neurotoxin could inhibit the activation of p38 MAPK signaling pathway so as to play the analgesic effects on neuropathic pain.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase (MEK) inhibitors have failed to show clinical benefit in Kirsten rat sarcoma (KRAS) mutant lung cancer due to various resistance mechanisms. To identify differential therapeutic sensitivities between epithelial and mesenchymal lung tumors, we performed in vivo small hairpin RNA screens, proteomic profiling, and analysis of patient tumor datasets, which revealed an inverse correlation between mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling dependency and a zinc finger E-box binding homeobox 1 (ZEB1)–regulated epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Mechanistic studies determined that MAPK signaling dependency in epithelial lung cancer cells is due to the scaffold protein interleukin-17 receptor D (IL17RD), which is directly repressed by ZEB1. Lung tumors in multiple Kras mutant murine models with increased ZEB1 displayed low IL17RD expression, accompanied by MAPK-independent tumor growth and therapeutic resistance to MEK inhibition. Suppression of ZEB1 function with miR-200 expression or the histone deacetylase inhibitor mocetinostat sensitized resistant cancer cells to MEK inhibition and markedly reduced in vivo tumor growth, showing a promising combinatorial treatment strategy for KRAS mutant cancers. In human lung tumor samples, high ZEB1 and low IL17RD expression correlated with low MAPK signaling, presenting potential markers that predict patient response to MEK inhibitors.
