Neuroblastoma tyrosine kinase signaling networks involve FYN and LYN in endosomes and lipid rafts.

ABSTRACT: Protein phosphorylation plays a central role in creating a highly dynamic network of interacting proteins that reads and responds to signals from growth factors in the cellular microenvironment. Cells of the neural crest employ multiple signaling mechanisms to control migration and differentiation during development. It is known that defects in these mechanisms cause neuroblastoma, but how multiple signaling pathways interact to govern cell behavior is unknown. In a phosphoproteomic study of neuroblastoma cell lines and cell fractions, including endosomes and detergent-resistant membranes, 1622 phosphorylated proteins were detected, including more than half of the receptor tyrosine kinases in the human genome. Data were analyzed using a combination of graph theory and pattern recognition techniques that resolve data structure into networks that incorporate statistical relationships and protein-protein interaction data. Clusters of proteins in these networks are indicative of functional signaling pathways. The analysis indicates that receptor tyrosine kinases are functionally compartmentalized into distinct collaborative groups distinguished by activation and intracellular localization of SRC-family kinases, especially FYN and LYN. Changes in intracellular localization of activated FYN and LYN were observed in response to stimulation of the receptor tyrosine kinases, ALK and KIT. The results suggest a mechanism to distinguish signaling responses to activation of different receptors, or combinations of receptors, that govern the behavior of the neural crest, which gives rise to neuroblastoma.

Association of rat8 with Fyn protein kinase via lipid rafts is required for rat mammary cell differentiation in vitro.

Project description:We previously identified rat8 in the pathway involved in epithelial cell differentiation that occurs in the rat mammary gland at pregnancy when tubules and alveoli are formed. rat8, which encodes an IFN-inducible membrane protein, is the rat homologue of the mouse gene fragilis. By differential detergent extraction and isopycnic sucrose density gradients, we show that rat8 protein is associated to lipid membrane domains together with Lyn and Fyn, members of the Src tyrosine kinase family. We also show that recruitment of rat8 to lipid membrane domains is a necessary step in mammary epithelial cell differentiation. Immunoprecipitation analysis, performed with an anti-Fyn protein antibody, shows that rat8 was present in the Fyn immunoprecipitate. Antisense oligonucleotides, used to inhibit Fyn protein expression, block mammary cell differentiation. Taken together, these results suggest that the functional interaction, via lipid membrane domains, of rat8 and Fyn proteins is required for mammary cell differentiation. Therefore, rat8, like fragilis, may be involved in developmental decisions and the demarcation of a subset of cells in the mammary gland that cause epithelial cells to develop into a network of tubuloalveolar structures involved in secretion.

Transmembrane form agrin-induced process formation requires lipid rafts and the activation of Fyn and MAPK.

Project description:Overexpression or clustering of the transmembrane form of the extracellular matrix heparan sulfate proteoglycan agrin (TM-agrin) induces the formation of highly dynamic filopodia-like processes on axons and dendrites from central and peripheral nervous system-derived neurons. Here we show that the formation of these processes is paralleled by a partitioning of TM-agrin into lipid rafts, that lipid rafts and transmembrane-agrin colocalize on the processes, that extraction of lipid rafts with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin leads to a dose-dependent reduction of process formation, that inhibition of lipid raft synthesis prevents process formation, and that the continuous presence of lipid rafts is required for the maintenance of the processes. Association of TM-agrin with lipid rafts results in the phosphorylation and activation of the Src family kinase Fyn and subsequently in the phosphorylation and activation of MAPK. Inhibition of Fyn or MAPK activation inhibits process formation. These results demonstrate that the formation of filopodia-like processes by TM-agrin is the result of the activation of a complex intracellular signaling cascade, supporting the hypothesis that TM-agrin is a receptor or coreceptor on neurons.

Fyn tyrosine kinase, a downstream target of receptor tyrosine kinases, modulates antiglioma immune responses.

Project description:BackgroundHigh-grade gliomas are aggressive and immunosuppressive brain tumors. Molecular mechanisms that regulate the inhibitory immune tumor microenvironment (TME) and glioma progression remain poorly understood. Fyn tyrosine kinase is a downstream target of the oncogenic receptor tyrosine kinase pathway and is overexpressed in human gliomas. Fyn's role in vivo in glioma growth remains unknown. We investigated whether Fyn regulates glioma initiation, growth and invasion.MethodsWe evaluated the role of Fyn using genetically engineered mouse glioma models (GEMMs). We also generated Fyn knockdown stem cells to induce gliomas in immune-competent and immune-deficient mice (nonobese diabetic severe combined immunodeficient gamma mice [NSG], CD8-/-, CD4-/-). We analyzed molecular mechanism by RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Flow cytometry was used to characterize immune cellular infiltrates in the Fyn knockdown glioma TME.ResultsWe demonstrate that Fyn knockdown in diverse immune-competent GEMMs of glioma reduced tumor progression and significantly increased survival. Gene ontology (GO) analysis of differentially expressed genes in wild-type versus Fyn knockdown gliomas showed enrichment of GOs related to immune reactivity. However, in NSG and CD8-/- and CD4-/- immune-deficient mice, Fyn knockdown gliomas failed to show differences in survival. These data suggest that the expression of Fyn in glioma cells reduces antiglioma immune activation. Examination of glioma immune infiltrates by flow cytometry displayed reduction in the amount and activity of immune suppressive myeloid derived cells in the Fyn glioma TME.ConclusionsGliomas employ Fyn mediated mechanisms to enhance immune suppression and promote tumor progression. We propose that Fyn inhibition within glioma cells could improve the efficacy of antiglioma immunotherapies.

Fyn Tyrosine Kinase as Harmonizing Factor in Neuronal Functions and Dysfunctions.

Project description:Fyn is a non-receptor or cytoplasmatic tyrosine kinase (TK) belonging to the Src family kinases (SFKs) involved in multiple transduction pathways in the central nervous system (CNS) including synaptic transmission, myelination, axon guidance, and oligodendrocyte formation. Almost one hundred years after the original description of Fyn, this protein continues to attract extreme interest because of its multiplicity of actions in the molecular signaling pathways underlying neurodevelopmental as well as neuropathologic events. This review highlights and summarizes the most relevant recent findings pertinent to the role that Fyn exerts in the brain, emphasizing aspects related to neurodevelopment and synaptic plasticity. Fyn is a common factor in healthy and diseased brains that targets different proteins and shapes different transduction signals according to the neurological conditions. We will primarily focus on Fyn-mediated signaling pathways involved in neuronal differentiation and plasticity that have been subjected to considerable attention lately, opening the fascinating scenario to target Fyn TK for the development of potential therapeutic interventions for the treatment of CNS injuries and certain neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's disease.

Clustering of neuronal K+-Cl- cotransporters in lipid rafts by tyrosine phosphorylation.

Project description:The neuronal K(+)-Cl(-) cotransporter (KCC2) is a membrane transport protein that extrudes Cl(-) from neurons and helps maintain low intracellular [Cl(-)] and hyperpolarizing GABAergic synaptic potentials. Depolarizing gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) responses in neonatal neurons and following various forms of neuronal injury are associated with reduced levels of KCC2 expression. Despite the importance for plasticity of inhibitory transmission, less is known about cellular mechanisms involved in more dynamic changes in KCC2 function. In this study, we investigated the role of tyrosine phosphorylation in KCC2 localization and function in hippocampal neurons and in cultured GT1-7 cells. Mutation to the putative tyrosine phosphorylation site within the long intracellular carboxyl terminus of KCC2(Y1087D) or application of the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein shifted the GABA reversal potential (E(GABA)) to more depolarized values, indicating reduced KCC2 function. This was associated with a change in the expression pattern of KCC2 from a punctate distribution to a more uniform distribution, suggesting that functional tyrosine-phosphorylated KCC2 forms clusters in restricted membrane domains. Sodium vanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, increased the proportion of KCC2 associated with lipid rafts membrane domains. Loss of tyrosine phosphorylation also reduced oligomerization of KCC2. A loss of the punctuate distribution and oligomerization of KCC2 and a more depolarized E(GABA) were seen when the 28-amino-acid carboxyl terminus of KCC2 was deleted. These results indicate that direct tyrosine phosphorylation of KCC2 results in membrane clusters and functional transport activity, suggesting a mechanism by which intracellular Cl(-) concentrations and GABA responses can be rapidly modulated.

Tyrosine kinase FYN negatively regulates NOX4 in cardiac remodeling.

Project description:NADPH oxidases (Noxes) produce ROS that regulate cell growth and death. NOX4 expression in cardiomyocytes (CMs) plays an important role in cardiac remodeling and injury, but the posttranslational mechanisms that modulate this enzyme are poorly understood. Here, we determined that FYN, a Src family tyrosine kinase, interacts with the C-terminal domain of NOX4. FYN and NOX4 colocalized in perinuclear mitochondria, ER, and nuclear fractions in CMs, and FYN expression negatively regulated NOX4-induced O2- production and apoptosis in CMs. Mechanistically, we found that direct phosphorylation of tyrosine 566 on NOX4 was critical for this FYN-mediated negative regulation. Transverse aortic constriction activated FYN in the left ventricle (LV), and FYN-deficient mice displayed exacerbated cardiac hypertrophy and dysfunction and increased ROS production and apoptosis. Deletion of Nox4 rescued the exaggerated LV remodeling in FYN-deficient mice. Furthermore, FYN expression was markedly decreased in failing human hearts, corroborating its role as a regulator of cardiac cell death and ROS production. In conclusion, FYN is activated by oxidative stress and serves as a negative feedback regulator of NOX4 in CMs during cardiac remodeling.

Crystal structure of the SH3 domain of human Lyn non-receptor tyrosine kinase.

Project description:Lyn kinase (Lck/Yes related novel protein tyrosine kinase) belongs to the family of Src-related non-receptor tyrosine kinases. Consistent with physiological roles in cell growth and proliferation, aberrant function of Lyn is associated with various forms of cancer, including leukemia, breast cancer and melanoma. Here, we determine a 1.3 Å resolution crystal structure of the polyproline-binding SH3 regulatory domain of human Lyn kinase, which adopts a five-stranded β-barrel fold. Mapping of cancer-associated point mutations onto this structure reveals that these amino acid substitutions are distributed throughout the SH3 domain and may affect Lyn kinase function distinctly.

Pyk2 is a Novel Tau Tyrosine Kinase that is Regulated by the Tyrosine Kinase Fyn.

Project description:The protein tyrosine kinase Pyk2 is encoded by PTK2B, a novel Alzheimer's disease (AD) susceptibility variant, with the PTK2B risk allele being associated with increased mRNA levels, suggestive of increased Pyk2 levels. However, the role of Pyk2, a member of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) family, in AD pathology and its regulation are largely unknown. To address this, we generated mice with neuronal expression of human Pyk2. Because we had previously reported an association of Pyk2 and hyperphosphorylated tau (a hallmark feature of AD) in human tau transgenic pR5 mice, we also generated Pyk2/tau double-transgenic mice, which exhibit increased tyrosine phosphorylation and accumulation of tau. We further demonstrated that Pyk2 colocalizes, interacts with, and phosphorylates tau in vivo and in vitro. Importantly, although Pyk2 interacts with the established tyrosine-directed tau kinase Fyn, we identified an increased Pyk2 activity in mice which constitutively overexpress Fyn (FynCA), and a decreased activity in mice lacking Fyn (FynKO). Together, our study reveals a novel role for Pyk2 as a direct tyrosine kinase of tau that is active downstream of Fyn. Our analysis may enhance the understanding of how the PTK2B risk allele contributes to tauopathy.

Lyn tyrosine kinase regulates androgen receptor expression and activity in castrate-resistant prostate cancer.

Project description:Castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) progression is a complex process by which prostate cells acquire the ability to survive and proliferate in the absence or under very low levels of androgens. Most CRPC tumors continue to express the androgen receptor (AR) as well as androgen-responsive genes owing to reactivation of AR. Protein tyrosine kinases have been implicated in supporting AR activation under castrate conditions. Here we report that Lyn tyrosine kinase expression is upregulated in CRPC human specimens compared with hormone naive or normal tissue. Lyn overexpression enhanced AR transcriptional activity both in vitro and in vivo and accelerated CRPC. Reciprocally, specific targeting of Lyn resulted in a decrease of AR transcriptional activity in vitro and in vivo and prolonged time to castration. Mechanistically, we found that targeting Lyn kinase induces AR dissociation from the molecular chaperone Hsp90, leading to its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. This work indicates a novel mechanism of regulation of AR stability and transcriptional activity by Lyn and justifies further investigation of the Lyn tyrosine kinase as a therapeutic target for the treatment of CRPC.Oncogenesis (2014) 3, e115; doi:10.1038/oncsis.2014.30; published online 18 August 2014.

Entry of herpes simplex virus mediated by chimeric forms of nectin1 retargeted to endosomes or to lipid rafts occurs through acidic endosomes.

Project description:Herpes simplex virus (HSV) enters cells by fusion with target membranes, commonly the plasma membrane. In some cells, including CHO cells expressing the nectin1 or herpesvirus entry mediator receptors, entry occurs through an endocytic route. We report the following results. (i) When expressed in J cells, nectin1 and HVEM mediated a pathway of entry insensitive to endosome acidification inhibitors. (ii) A chimeric nectin1 receptor competent for endosomal uptake by fusion of the nectin1 ectodomain with the transmembrane sequence and cytoplasmic tail of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR1) (nectin1-EGFR1) and chimeric nectin1 sorted to lipid rafts by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor mediated endocytic entry blocked by the early endosome inhibitor wortmannin and by the endosome acidification inhibitors bafilomycin and NH(4)Cl. (iii) Entry mediated by nectin1-EGFR1 was selectively inhibited by AG1478, a tyrosine phosphorylation inhibitor that targets the EGFR1 cytoplasmic tail and blocks the signaling pathway that culminates in clathrin-dependent uptake of the receptor into endosomes. We draw the following conclusions. (i) The same receptor may initiate different routes of infection, depending on the cell in which it is expressed. Hence, the cell is a determinant that controls whether a given receptor initiates a plasma membrane or an endocytic route of entry. (ii) Receptors whose physiology involves uptake into endosomes or sorting to lipid rafts are suitable to serve as HSV receptors. (iii) Structural features of the receptors are additional determinants that control whether HSV entry occurs at the plasma membrane or at endosomes. These findings are relevant to studies of HSV retargeting to specific receptors.
