Growth inhibition signalled through the interleukin-4/interleukin-13 receptor complex is associated with tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate-1.


ABSTRACT: Induction of growth inhibition in human colorectal carcinoma cell lines by interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 was associated with the neophosphorylation of a 170 kDa cellular protein, identified as insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) by immunoprecipitation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-I was also induced by insulin and insulin-like growth factor I. Sublines of colorectal carcinoma cells unresponsive to growth modulation by IL-4, IL-13 or insulin-like growth factor I-induced growth did not phosphorylate IRS-1. A functional, multimeric IL-4 receptor complex was present on all carcinoma cell lines with a subunit composition of 65 kDa, 75 kDa and the previously characterized 130 kDa band as demonstrated by affinity cross-link with 126I labelled IL-4. The 65 kDa subunit is novel whereas the 75 kDa band represents the common IL-2 receptor gama-chain the novel 65 kDa receptor was present as a double band and bound primarily 125I-labelled IL-13. The present study demonstrates the involvement of a novel chain other than the gama-chain in the receptor complexes of IL-4 and IL-13 and and post-receptor tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1. The association of IRS-1 with growth inhibitory signals in carcinoma cells suggests a novel mechanism of tumour growth control.
