Involvement of protein kinase D in Fc gamma-receptor activation of the NADPH oxidase in neutrophils.

ABSTRACT: Protein kinases involved in the activation of the NADPH oxidase by Fc gamma receptors in neutrophils were studied. Of three different protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors, Gö 6976 inhibited the NADPH oxidase completely, whereas bisindolylmaleimide I and Ro 31-8220 caused a 70-80% inhibition. Thus a Gö 6976-sensitive, bisindolylmaleimide I/Ro 31-8220-insensitive component contributes to NADPH oxidase activation induced by Fc gamma receptors. Down-regulation of PKC isotypes resulted in inhibition of Fc gamma-receptor-activated NADPH oxidase, but a down-regulation-insensitive component was still present. This component was sensitive to Gö 6976, but insensitive to Ro 31-8220. It has been shown previously that protein kinase D/PKC-mu (PKD) shows this same pharmacology in vitro. We show that PKD is present in neutrophils and that, in contrast with PKC isotypes, PKD is not down-regulated. Therefore PKD may participate in NADPH oxidase activation. To obtain direct evidence for this we adopted an antisense approach. Antisense PKD inhibited NADPH oxidase induced by Fc gamma-receptor stimulation by 50% and the Ro 31-8220-insensitive component in the activation was inhibited by antisense PKD. In vitro kinase assays showed that PKD is activated by presenting IgG-opsonized particles to neutrophils. Furthermore, PKD localizes to the area of particle intake in the cell and phosphorylates two of the three cytosolic components of the NADPH oxidase, p40(phox) and p47(phox). Taken together, these data indicate that Fc gamma receptors engage PKD in the regulation of the NADPH oxidase.

Project description:NADPH oxidase5 (Nox5) is a novel Nox isoform which has recently been recognized as having important roles in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease, acute myocardial infarction, fetal ventricular septal defect and cancer. The activity of Nox5 and production of reactive oxygen species is regulated by intracellular calcium levels and phosphorylation. However, the kinases that phosphorylate Nox5 remain poorly understood. Previous studies have shown that the phosphorylation of Nox5 is PKC dependent, but this contention was based on the use of pharmacological inhibitors and the isoforms of PKC involved remain unknown. Thus, the major goals of this study were to determine whether PKC can directly regulate Nox5 phosphorylation and activity, to identify which isoforms are involved in the process, and to understand the functional significance of this pathway in disease. We found that a relatively specific PKCα inhibitor, Ro-32-0432, dose-dependently inhibited PMA-induced superoxide production from Nox5. PMA-stimulated Nox5 activity was significantly reduced in cells with genetic silencing of PKCα and PKCε, enhanced by loss of PKCδ and the silencing of PKCθ expression was without effect. A constitutively active form of PKCα robustly increased basal and PMA-stimulated Nox5 activity and promoted the phosphorylation of Nox5 on Ser490, Thr494, and Ser498. In contrast, constitutively active PKCε potently inhibited both basal and PMA-dependent Nox5 activity. Co-IP and in vitro kinase assay experiments demonstrated that PKCα directly binds to Nox5 and modifies Nox5 phosphorylation and activity. Exposure of endothelial cells to high glucose significantly increased PKCα activation, and enhanced Nox5 derived superoxide in a manner that was in prevented by a PKCα inhibitor, Go 6976. In summary, our study reveals that PKCα is the primary isoform mediating the activation of Nox5 and this maybe of significance in our understanding of the vascular complications of diabetes and other diseases with increased ROS production.

Project description:Background & aimsNADPH oxidase 1 (NOX1) has emerged as a prime regulator of intestinal mucosa immunity and homeostasis. Dysregulation of NOX1 may cause inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It is not clear how NOX1 is regulated in vivo under inflammatory conditions. We studied the role of CK2 in this process.MethodsThe NOX1 organizer subunit, NADPH oxidase organizer 1 (NOXO1), was immunoprecipitated from cytokine-treated colon epithelial cells, and bound proteins were identified by mass spectrometry analysis. Sites on NOXO1 phosphorylated by CK2 were identified by nanoscale liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. NOX1 activity was determined in colon epithelial cells and colonoids in the presence or absence of CX-4945, a CK2 specific inhibitor. Acute colitis was induced by administration of trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid in mice treated or not with CX-4945. Colon tissues were analyzed by histologic examination, quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and Western blots. CK2 activity, markers of inflammation, and oxidative stress were assessed.ResultsWe identified CK2 as a major partner of NOXO1 in colon epithelial cells under inflammatory conditions. CK2 directly binds NOXO1 at the C-terminus containing the Phox homology domain and phosphorylates NOXO1 on several sites. CX-4945 increased ROS generation by NOX1 in human colon epithelial cells and organoids. Strikingly, CK2 activity was reduced in trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-induced acute colitis, and CX-4945 exacerbated colitis inflammation as shown by increased levels of CXCL1, ROS generation, lipid peroxidation, and colon damage.ConclusionsThe ubiquitous protein kinase CK2 limits NOX1 activity via NOXO1 binding and phosphorylation in colonic epithelial cells and lessens experimental colitis. Loss of CK2 activity during acute colitis results in excessive ROS production, contributing to the pathogenesis. Strategies to activate CK2 could be an effective novel therapeutic approach in IBD.
