Abstract
BACKGROUND Glomerular epithelial protein 1 (GLEPP1) is a receptor-like membrane protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) with a large ectodomain consisting of multiple fibronectin type III repeats, a single transmembrane segment, and a single cytoplasmic phosphatase active site sequence. In adult human and rabbit kidneys, GLEPP1 is found exclusively on apical membranes of podocytes and especially on surfaces of foot processes. Although neither ligand nor function for this protein is known, other RPTPs with similar topologies have been implicated in mediating adherence behavior of cells. METHODS To evaluate potential roles of GLEPP1 further, we cloned the full-length mouse GLEPP1 cDNA and examined its expression patterns in developing kidney by Northern blot analysis, in situ hybridization, and immunofluorescence microscopy. RESULTS Nucleotide sequencing showed that mouse GLEPP1 was approximately 80% identical to rabbit and human GLEPP1 and approximately 91% identical at the amino acid level. The membrane-spanning and phosphatase domains of mouse GLEPP1 shared> 99% homology with PTPphi, a murine macrophage cytoplasmic phosphatase. Northern analysis identified a single GLEPP1 transcript of approximately 5.5 kb in fetal kidney that became approximately threefold more abundant in adults. In situ hybridization of newborn mouse kidney revealed GLEPP1 mRNA in visceral epithelial cells (developing podocytes) of comma- and S-shaped nephric figures, and expression increased in capillary loop and maturing stage glomeruli. Beginning on embryonic day 14, GLEPP1 protein was first observed on cuboidal podocytes of capillary loop stage glomeruli, but nascent podocytes of earlier comma- and S-shaped nephric figures were negative. At later stages of glomerular maturation, where foot process elongation and interdigitation occurs, GLEPP1 immunolabeling intensified on podocytes and then persisted at high levels in fully developed glomeruli. CONCLUSION Our findings are consistent with a role for GLEPP1 in mediating and maintaining podocyte differentiation specifically.

Abstract
Cytokines induce the tyrosine phosphorylation and associated activation of signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stat). The mechanisms by which this response is terminated are largely unknown. Among a variety of inhibitors examined, the proteasome inhibitors MG132 and lactacystin affected Stat4, Stat5 and Stat6 turnover by significantly stabilizing the tyrosine-phosphorylated form. However, these proteasome inhibitors did not affect downregulation of the tyrosine-phosphorylated Stat1, Stat2 and Stat3. With Stat5 isoforms, we have observed that tyrosine-phosphorylated carboxyl-truncated forms of Stat5 proteins were considerably more stable than phosphorylated wild-type forms of the protein. Also, the C-terminal region of Stat5 could confer proteasome-dependent downregulation to Stat1. With a series of C-terminal deletion mutants, we have defined a relatively small, potentially amphipathic alpha-helical region that is required for the rapid turnover of the phosphorylated Stat5 proteins. The region is also required for transcriptional activation, suggesting that the functions are linked. The results are consistent with a model in which the transcriptional activation domain of activated Stat5 is required for its transcriptional activity and downregulation through a proteasome-dependent pathway.

Abstract
P(0), a major structural protein of peripheral myelin, belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Sequence comparison of P(0) with PZR, a tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 binding protein we recently cloned, revealed the presence of an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) in the intracellular portion of the P(0) molecule. To study the role of this putative ITIM in signal transduction, we have expressed P(0) in HT-1080 and 293 cells. Stimulation of the transfected cells with pervanadate, a powerful inhibitor of tyrosine phosphatases, resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of P(0) and its association with several tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. Mutation of Y(220) embedded in the ITIM to phenylalanine abolished the tyrosine phosphorylation and the association. Tyrosine phosphorylation of P(0) and its association with other signaling proteins were also observed in pervanadate-treated RN22 Schwannoma cells, which express endogenous P(0). Furthermore, injection of pervanadate induced tyrosine phosphorylation of P(0) in peripheral nerves of newborn but not adult mice. The physiological importance of the ITIM in P(0) is implied by the fact that a naturally occurred P(0) mutant with a disrupted ITIM has a dominant role in causing Dejerine-Scotts syndrome. Taken together, P(0) is phosphorylated on Try(220). The presence of an ITIM in P(0) and its ability to mediate protein-protein interaction through tyrosine phosphorylation indicate that P(0) is not merely a structural protein but may also be a crucial player in cell signaling.

Abstract
We recently found that a thioether analog of K vitamin (Cpd 5) inhibited the activity of protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) and induced protein-tyrosine phosphorylation in a human hepatoma cell line (Hep3B). We have now examined the structural requirements for induction of protein-tyrosine phosphorylation and PTPase inhibition by several K vitamin analogs. Thioether analogs with sulfhydryl arylation capacity, especially those with a hydroxy (Cpd 5) or a methoxy group at the end of the side chain, induced protein-tyrosine phosphorylation, but non-arylating analogs, such as those with an all-carbon or O-ether side chain, did not. Among the receptor-tyrosine kinases, epidermal growth factor receptors were tyrosine-phosphorylated by treatment with thioether analogs, whereas insulin and hepatocyte growth factor receptors were not. An increase in tyrosine-phosphorylated ERK2 mitogen-activated protein kinase was also observed. The activity of purified T cell PTPase was inhibited only by the thioether analogs, but not by non-arylating analogs. Furthermore, the epidermal growth factor receptor dephosphorylation activity of Hep3B cell lysates was inhibited by Cpd 5 treatment. A similar induction of protein-tyrosine phosphorylation by Cpd 5 was seen in other human hepatoma cell lines together with growth inhibition. However, one cell line (HepG2), which was relatively resistant to growth inhibition by Cpd 5, did not increase its phosphorylation levels upon Cpd 5 treatment. These results suggest that cell growth inhibition by thioether analogs is closely associated with inhibition of PTPases by sulfhydryl arylation and with tyrosine phosphorylation of selected proteins.

Abstract
The intraperitoneal administration of peroxovanadate results in the rapid accumulation of many tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in the liver and kidney of treated animals. The availability of large pools of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins derived from normal tissues facilitates the purification and identification of previously unknown targets for cellular tyrosine kinases. Using this procedure, we have thus far identified four proteins in the liver and kidney of peroxovanadate-treated dogs. Two of these, annexin VII and annexin XI, were novel and had not been previously reported to be substrates of tyrosine kinases while the remaining two, ezrin and clathrin, have been reported to be tyrosine phosphorylated in some cell culture systems. In the present study, isolated proteins were identified both by sequence analysis and immunological methods. Annexin VII and annexin XI are present in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells and both were tyrosine phosphorylated in response to a physiological ligand, platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB). Furthermore, the extent of tyrosine phosphorylation in response to PDGF-BB was augmented by the co-addition of peroxovanadate to cell cultures. In vitro phosphorylation assays showed that PDGF receptor, calcium-dependent tyrosine kinase (CADTK/Pyk-2), Src kinase, and epidermal growth factor receptor all were able to phosphorylate purified annexin VII and XI on tyrosine residues. These findings confirm the usefulness of phosphatase inhibition by peroxovanadate as a tool for identifying previously unknown physiological targets for cellular protein tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
Cell suspensions of ileal mucosa undergo a rapid and synchronized form of programmed cell death when cultured in a simple medium at 37 degrees C. Because tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins plays a crucial role in the signal transduction of many cellular processes, we examined its role in intestinal programmed cell death by use of immunoblot and immunohistochemical methods. We observed a 50-70% reduction in tyrosine phosphorylation during the initial 10 min of intestinal epithelial cell culture. We hypothesized that the inhibition of protein tyrosine phosphatases would increase protein tyrosine phosphorylation in these suspensions and decrease programmed cell death. A strong inhibitor of these phosphatases (peroxovanadate) but not a weaker one (sodium orthovanadate) abolished the DNA fragmentation/laddering normally seen in dying enterocytes. Peroxovanadate enhanced protein tyrosine phosphorylation of many intestinal proteins, dramatically increasing the dually phosphorylated and active form of mitogen-activated protein kinase. Immunohistochemistry revealed a particularly high level of increased tyrosine phosphorylation in the intestinal crypts in peroxovanadate-treated mucosa. Kinetic studies indicated that the pivotal time for protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibition occurred within 5 min of ex vivo culture, precisely when protein tyrosine phosphorylation declined. Our data suggest that tyrosine kinase inactivation or tyrosine phosphatase activation may initiate intestinal epithelial cell death.

Abstract
Vanadate is an insulinomimetic agent that has potent inhibitory effect on tyrosine phosphatases. We have recently demonstrated that low concentration of vanadate stimulates phosphotyrosine-dependent signal transduction pathways leading to gene expression and DNA synthesis in mesangial cells. To further examine the mechanisms by which vanadate activates mesangial cell, we studied its effect on signal transducer and activators of transcription (STAT). Incubation of lysates from vanadate-stimulated mesangial cells with a specific high affinity sis-inducible DNA element (SIE) resulted in the formation of protein-DNA complex. Supershift analysis using monoclonal antibody against STAT1 alpha showed its exclusive presence in the DNA-protein complex. Incubation of cell lysate with antiphosphotyrosine antibody or with excess phosphotyrosine caused decrease in binding of STAT1 alpha to SIE probe indicating that tyrosine phosphorylation and dimerization of this transcription factor are necessary for its activation. Immunoprecipitation followed by immunecomplex kinase assay showed increased tyrosine kinase activity of Janus kinase 2 (JAK2) in vanadate-treated mesangial cells. The addition of a monoclonal antiphosphoserine antibody to lysates from vanadate-treated mesangial cells results in supershift of protein-DNA complex indicating the presence of serine phosphorylated STAT1 alpha in this complex. Treatment of lystates from vanadated-stimulated mesangial cells with serine phosphatase PP2A causes inhibition of DNA-protein interaction. Collectively, our data indicate that at least one mechanism of activation of mesangial cells during vanadate treatment is increased activation of STAT1 alpha by both tyrosine and serine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Glandular epithelia express the keratin intermediate filament (IF) polypeptides 8, 18 and 19 (K8/18/19). These proteins undergo significant serine phosphorylation upon stimulation with growth factors and during mitosis, with subsequent modulation of their organization and interaction with associated proteins. Here we demonstrate reversible and dynamic tyrosine phosphorylation of K8 and K19, but not K18, upon exposure of intact mouse colon or cultured human cells to pervanadate. K8/19 tyrosine phosphorylation was confirmed by metabolic 32PO4-labeling followed by phosphoamino acid analysis, and by immunoblotting with anti-phosphotyrosine antibodies. Pervanadate treatment increases keratin solubility and also indirectly increases K8/18 serine phosphorylation at several known sites, some of which were previously shown to be associated with EGF stimulation, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), or p38 kinase activation. However, K8/19 tyrosine phosphorylation is independent of EGF signaling or ERK activation while inhibition of p38 kinase activity blocks pervanadate-induced K8/19 tyrosine phosphorylation. Our results demonstrate tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor-mediated in vivo tyrosine phosphorylation of K8/19, but not K18, and suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation may be a general modification of other IF proteins. K8/19 tyrosine phosphorylation involves a pathway that utilizes the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, but appears independent of EGF signaling or ERK kinase activation.

Abstract
Oxidizing agents are powerful activators of factors responsible for the transcriptional activation of cytokine-encoding genes involved in tissue injury. In this study we show evidence that STAT3 is a transcription factor whose activity is modulated by H2O2 in human lymphocytes, in which endogenous catalase had previously been inhibited. H2O2-induced nuclear translocation of STAT3 to form sequence-specific DNA-bound complexes was evidenced by immunoblotting of nuclear fractions and electrophoretic mobility shift assays, and vanadate was found to strongly synergize with H2O2. Moreover, anti-STAT3 antibodies specifically precipitated a protein of 92 kDa that becomes phosphorylated on tyrosine upon lymphocyte treatment with H2O2. Phenylarsine oxide, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, and genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, cooperated and cancelled, respectively, the H2O2-promoted STAT3 nuclear translocation. Evidence is also presented, using Fe2+/Cu2+ ions, that.OH generated from H2O2 through Fenton reactions could be a candidate oxygen reactive species to directly activate STAT3. Present data suggest that H2O2 and vanadate are likely to inhibit the activity of intracellular tyrosine phosphatase(s), leading to enhanced STAT3 tyrosine phosphorylation and hence its translocation to the nucleus. These results demonstrate that the DNA binding activity of STAT3 can be modulated by oxidizing agents and provide a framework to understand the effects of oxidative stress on the JAK-STAT signaling pathway.

Abstract
Inflammatory diseases of the lung are characterized by increases in vascular permeability and enhanced leukocyte infiltration, reflecting compromise of the endothelial cell (EC) barrier. We examined potential molecular mechanisms that underlie these alterations and assessed the effects of diperoxovanadate (DPV), a potent tyrosine kinase activator and phosphatase inhibitor, on EC contractile events. Confocal immunofluorescent microscopy confirmed dramatic increases in stress-fiber formation and colocalization of EC myosin light chain (MLC) kinase (MLCK) with the actin cytoskeleton, findings consistent with activation of the endothelial contractile apparatus. DPV produced significant time-dependent increases in MLC phosphorylation that were significantly attenuated but not abolished by EC MLCK inhibition with KT-5926. Pretreatment with the Rho GTPase-inhibitory C3 exotoxin completely abolished DPV-induced MLC phosphorylation, consistent with Rho-mediated MLC phosphatase inhibition and novel regulation of EC MLCK activity. Immunoprecipitation of EC MLCK after DPV challenge revealed dramatic time-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of the kinase in association with increased MLCK activity and a stable association of MLCK with the p85 actin-binding protein cortactin and p60(src). Translocation of immunoreactive cortactin from the cytosol to the cytoskeleton was noted after DPV in concert with cortactin tyrosine phosphorylation. These studies indicate that DPV activates the endothelial contractile apparatus in a Rho GTPase-dependent fashion and suggests that p60(src)-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of MLCK and cortactin may be important features of contractile complex assembly.

Abstract
The novel intracellular carbohydrate O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is present on proteins ranging from those of viruses to those of humans and include cytosolic, nuclear and plasma-membrane proteins. In this report we have examined the effect of manipulation of phosphorylation on the levels of O-GlcNAc in cerebellar neurons from early postnatal mice. Our results indicate a reciprocal response of O-GlcNAc levels to phosphorylation. Activation of protein kinase A or C, for example, results in reduced levels of O-GlcNAc specifically in the fraction of cytoskeletal and cytoskeleton-associated proteins, while inhibition of the same kinases results in increased levels of O-GlcNAc. These data are in keeping with a reciprocal action of O-GlcNAc with respect to phosphorylation and suggest that this modification may have a role in signal transduction.

Abstract
Abstract
Treatment of cultured peritoneal macrophages with IFN-γ resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of IκBα and IκBβ, NF-κB activation, and expression of inducible NO synthase (iNOS). Since tyrosine phosphorylation of IκBα is sufficient to activate NF-κB in Jurkat cells, macrophages were treated with the protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor peroxovanadate (POV), which elicited an intense tyrosine phosphorylation of both IκB. However, this phosphorylation failed to activate NF-κB. Treatment with POV of macrophages stimulated with IFN-γ or LPS potentiated the degradation of IκBα and IκBβ, the activation of NF-κB, and the expression of iNOS. Analysis of the iNOS gene promoter activity corresponding to the 5′-flanking region indicated that POV potentiates the cooperation between IFN-γ-activated transcription factors and NF-κB. These results indicate that tyrosine phosphorylation of IκB is not sufficient to activate NF-κB in macrophages and propose a negative role for protein tyrosine phosphatase in the expression of iNOS in response to IFN-γ.

Abstract
Disruption of the actin cytoskeleton in AR4-2J pancreatic acinar cells led to an increase in cytosolic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity, abolished bombesin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation and reduced bombesin-induced amylase secretion by about 45%. Furthermore, both tyrosine phosphorylation and amylase secretion induced by phorbol ester-induced activation of protein kinase C were abolished. An increase in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration by the Ca2+ ionophore A23187 had no effect on tyrosine phosphorylation but induced amylase release. Only when added together with phorbol ester, the same level of amylase secretion as with bombesin was reached. This amylase secretion was inhibited by about 40%, by actin cytoskeleton disruption similar to that induced by bombesin. We conclude that actin cytoskeleton-controlled protein tyrosine phosphatase activity downstream of protein kinase C activity regulates tyrosine phosphorylation which in part is involved in bombesin-stimulated amylase secretion.

Abstract
Transcription factors of the STAT family have been implicated in regulation of cell proliferation. EGF activates several STAT proteins in liver. We have studied the relationship between STAT activation and the growth-stimulatory effect of EGF in rat hepatocytes, assessing specific DNA-binding activity of STAT proteins in electrophoretic mobility-shift and supershift assays. In freshly isolated hepatocytes, EGF activated Stat1, Stat3, and, particularly, Stat5b. However, the ability of EGF to produce this activation was rapidly attenuated when the cells were cultured, while the activation by IFN-gamma (Stat1) and IL-6 (Stat3) was sustained. Hepatocytes cultured for 24-48 h are highly sensitive to the stimulatory effect of EGF on S phase entry. In these cells EGF did not detectably activate Stat1, Stat3, or Stat5b but markedly stimulated MAP kinase (Erk1/2). Thus, although EGF has the ability to activate several STAT proteins, this did not seem to be part of the mitogenic mechanisms used by the EGF receptor in hepatocytes.

Abstract
Extracellular stimuli elicit a variety of responses, such as cell proliferation and differentiation, through the cellular signalling system. Binding of growth factors to the respective receptor leads to the activation of receptor tyrosine kinases, which in turn stimulate downstream signalling systems such as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, phospholipase Cgamma (PLCgamma) and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. These biochemical reactions finally reach the nucleus, resulting in gene expression mediated by the activation of several transcription factors. Recent studies have revealed that cellular signalling pathways are regulated by the intracellular redox state. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as H2O2, leads to the activation of protein tyrosine kinases followed by the stimulation of downstream signalling systems including MAP kinase and PLCgamma. The activation of PLCgamma by oxidative radical stress elevates the cellular Ca2+ levels by flux from the intracellular Ca2+ pool and from the extracellular space. Such reactions in the upstream signalling cascade, in concert, result in the activation of several transcription factors. On the other hand, reductants generally suppress the upstream signalling cascade resulting in the suppression of transcription factors. However, it is well known that cysteine residues in a reduced state are essential for the activity of many transcription factors. In fact, in vitro, oxidation of NFkappaB results in its activation, whereas reductants promote its activity. Thus, cellular signalling pathways are generally subjected to dual redox regulation in which redox has opposite effects on upstream signalling systems and downstream transcription factors. Not only are the cellular signalling pathways subjected to redox regulation, but also the signalling systems regulate the cellular redox state. When cells are activated by extracellular stimuli, the cells produce ROS, which in turn stimulate other cellular signalling pathways, indicating that ROS act as second messengers. It is thus evident that there is cross talk between the cellular signalling system and the cellular redox state. Cell death and life also are subjected to such dual redox regulation and cross talk. Death signals induce apoptosis through the activation of caspases in the cells. Oxidative radical stress induces the activation of caspases, whereas the oxidation of caspases results in their inactivation. Furthermore, some cell-death signals induce the production of ROS in the cells, and the ROS produced in turn stimulate the cell-death machinery. All this evidence shows that the cell's fate is determined by cross talk between the cellular signalling pathways and the cellular redox state through a complicated regulation mechanism.

Abstract
Biliary glycoprotein (Bgp, C-CAM, or CD66a) is an immunoglobulin-like cell adhesion molecule and functions as a tumor suppressor protein. We have previously shown that the Bgp1 isoform responsible for inhibition of colonic, liver, prostate, and breast tumor cell growth contains within its cytoplasmic domain two tyrosine residues positioned in immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) consensus sequences. Moreover, we determined that these residues, upon phosphorylation, associate with the protein-tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. In this report, we have further evaluated the structural bases of the association of Bgp1 with Tyr phosphatases. First, we demonstrate that Bgp1 also associates with the SHP-2 Tyr phosphatase, but not with an unrelated Tyr phosphatase, PTP-PEST. Association of Bgp1 and SHP-2 involves the Tyr residues within the Bgp1 ITIM sequences, Val at position +3 relative to the second Tyr (Tyr-515), and the SHP-2 N-terminal SH2 domain. In addition, our results indicate that residues +4, +5, and +6 relative to Tyr-515 in the Bgp1 cytoplasmic domain play a significant role in these interactions, as their deletion reduced Bgp1 Tyr phosphorylation and association with SHP-1 and SHP-2 by as much as 80%. Together, these results indicate that both SHP-1 and SHP-2 interact with the Bgp1 cytoplasmic domain via ITIM-like sequences. Furthermore, they reveal that the C-terminal amino acids of Bgp1 are critical for these interactions.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including the acute respiratory distress syndrome, Parkinson's disease, pulmonary fibrosis, and Alzheimer's disease. In mammalian cells, several genes known to be induced during the immediate early response to growth factors, including the protooncogenes c-fos and c-myc, have also been shown to be induced by ROS. We show that members of the STAT family of transcription factors, including STAT1 and STAT3, are activated in fibroblasts and A-431 carcinoma cells in response to H2O2. This activation occurs within 5 min, can be inhibited by antioxidants, and does not require protein synthesis. STAT activation in these cell lines is oxidant specific and does not occur in response to superoxide- or nitric oxide-generating stimuli. Buthionine sulfoximine, which depletes intracellular glutathione, also activates the STAT pathway. Moreover, H2O2 stimulates the activity of the known STAT kinases JAK2 and TYK2. Activation of STATs by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is significantly inhibited by N-acetyl-L-cysteine and diphenylene iodonium, indicating that ROS production contributes to STAT activation in response to PDGF. These findings indicate that the JAK-STAT pathway responds to intracellular ROS and that PDGF uses ROS as a second messenger to regulate STAT activation.

Abstract
Overexpression of a catalytically inactive mutant of tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 in 293 cells resulted in hyperphosphorylation of a glycoprotein specifically associated with the enzyme. The protein has been purified to near homogeneity. Based on the amino acid sequences of peptides obtained from the protein, a full-length cDNA was isolated. The cDNA encodes a protein with a single transmembrane segment and a signal sequence. The extracellular portion of the protein contains a single immunoglobulin-like domain displaying 46% sequence identity to that of myelin P0, a major structural protein of peripheral myelin. The intracellular segment of the protein shows no significant sequence identity to any known protein except for two immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs. We name the protein PZR for protein zero related. Transfection of the PZR cDNA in Jurkat cells gave rise to a protein of expected molecular size. Stimulation of cells with pervanadate resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of PZR and a near-stoichiometric association of PZR with SHP-2. Northern blotting analyses revealed that PZR is widely expressed in human tissues and is particularly abundant in heart, placenta, kidney, and pancreas. As a binding protein and a putative substrate of SHP-2, PZR protein may have an important role in cell signaling.

Abstract
Vanadium compounds exert a variety of biological responses, the most notable being their effects as insulin mimetics. More recently, they have been used as pharmacological tools to investigate signalling pathways. Some peroxovanadium compounds act as powerful protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors, modulating both the extent and duration of phosphotyrosine signals at the level of the transmembrane growth factor receptors and targets in the cytoplasm and nucleus. A brief history of vanadium compounds, selected chemical properties of vanadium compounds and the ability of peroxovanadium complexes to modulate the activities of protein tyrosine phosphatases and tyrosine kinases are presented in this review by Anne Morinville, Dusica Maysinger and Alan Shaver. From the range of biological activities of these compounds, this review focuses on cytotoxic effects and possible roles of mitogen-activated protein kinases in mediating the effects exerted by vanadium compounds.

Abstract
A tight and stable complex with corresponding protein kinases and phosphatases establishes coupling between activators and inactivators. One such example is emerging from the studies of the Ras-dependent MAP kinase cascade signaling pathway. Pervanadate, a potent inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatase, stimulates MAP kinase and elicits cell proliferation in cultured mouse fibroblasts which is insensitive to PD 98059, the major inhibitor of upstream MEK, whereas serum- or TPA-triggered proliferation is sensitive to PD 98059. It is suggested that imbalanced coordination between protein kinase and protein phosphatase determines the cellular responses such as cell proliferation. The PD 98059-insensitive cell proliferation upon protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibition is attributed to a MEK bypass pathway.

Abstract
We have studied the role of protein tyrosine phosphorylation in amylase secretion from differentiated AR4-2J cells. The secretagogue bombesin, the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), and the protein-tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor pervanadate induced tyrosine phosphorylation of different proteins, including paxillin and p125(FAK), which was reduced or blocked by the tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein and tyrphostin B56, respectively. Both PMA and pervanadate continuously increased amylase secretion with a similar time course, reaching the level of bombesin-induced amylase release after 60 min. Their effects were not additive and could be inhibited by preincubation of AR4-2J cells with genistein or tyrphostin B56, respectively. Inhibition of protein kinase C with Ro 31-8220 nearly abolished the effects of PMA, but had no effect on either pervanadate-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation or amylase secretion. An increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration by thapsigargin or A23187 caused a rapid increase in amylase release within the initial 5 min. In the presence of PMA or pervanadate, amylase secretion was further stimulated to levels comparable to those induced by bombesin after 30 min of stimulation. Inhibition of PMA-induced amylase secretion by Ro 31-8220 was less at elevated cytosolic free Ca2+ concentrations than without Ca2+. Furthermore, an increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration had no effect on protein tyrosine phosphorylation in either the absence or presence of PMA or pervanadate. We therefore conclude that in the cascade of events that lead to bombesin-induced protein secretion from AR4-2J cells, protein tyrosine phosphorylation occurs downstream of protein kinase C activation. A further step in secretion that is Ca2+-dependent occurs distal to protein tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Polarized monolayers of strain II Madin-Darby canine kidney cells (MDCK II) were treated with vanadate/H2O2, known inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase activity. Vanadate/H2O2 treatment resulted in a rapid increase in paracellular permeability as revealed by decreased transepithelial resistance and increased permeability to inulin. These alterations in epithelial barrier function coincided with increased phosphotyrosine immunofluorescence in the vicinity of intercellular junctions and with redistribution of F-actin, the adherens junction protein E-cadherin and the tight junction protein ZO-1. The effects of vanadate/H2O2 on intercellular junction permeability and protein distribution were completely blocked by the specific protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitor tyrphostin 25 and partially inhibited by the alternative PTK inhibitor genistein. The relative potency of these two inhibitors in blocking the effects of vanadate/H2O2 on intercellular junctions correlated with their abilities to inhibit tyrosine phosphorylation. The potent ser/thr protein kinase inhibitor staurosporine had only a small influence on the vanadate/H2O2-induced increase in paracellular permeability and did not affect the observed redistribution of intercellular junction proteins or phosphotyrosine immunofluorescence. The relative potencies of these distinct protein kinase inhibitors in reversing the effects of vanadate/H2O2 indicate that these effects are directly related to tyrosine phosphorylation. In conclusion, our data provide evidence that enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of intercellular junction proteins in MDCK epithelia increases paracellular permeability and can also induce prominent reorganization of the junctional complex.

Abstract
Phagocyte functions are markedly inhibited after infection with the intracellular protozoan parasite Leishmania. This situation strongly favors the installation and propagation of this pathogen within its mammalian host. Previous findings by us and others have established that alteration of several signaling pathways (protein kinase C-, Ca2+- and protein-tyrosine kinases-dependent signaling events) were directly responsible for Leishmania-induced macrophage (MO) dysfunctions. Here we report that modulation of phosphotyrosine-dependent events with a protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTP) inhibitor, the peroxovanadium (pV) compound bpV(phen) (potassium bisperoxo(1,10-phenanthroline)oxovanadate(Vi)), can control host-pathogen interactions by different mechanisms. We observed that the inhibition of parasite PTP resulted in an arrest of proliferation and death of the latter in coincidence with cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK1) tyrosine 15 phosphorylation. Moreover the treatment of MO with bpV(phen) resulted in an increased sensitivity to interferon-gamma stimulation, which was reflected by enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production. This enhanced IFN-gamma-induced NO generation was accompanied by a marked increase of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA gene and protein expression. Finally we have verified the in vivo potency of bpV(phen) over a 6-week period of daily administration of a sub-toxic dose. The results revealed its effectiveness in controlling the progression of visceral and cutaneous leishmaniasis. Therefore PTP inhibition of Leishmania and MO by the pV compound bpV(phen) can differentially affect these eukaryotic cells. This strongly suggests that PTP plays an important role in the progression of Leishmania infection and pathogenesis. The apparent potency of pV compounds along with their relatively simple and versatile structure render them attractive pharmacological agents for the management of parasitic infections.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix and growth factors cooperate to regulate signaling pathways and gene transcription in adherent cells. However, the mechanism of extracellular matrix signaling is poorly defined. In mammary gland, the expression of milk protein genes is controlled by cross-talk between signals derived from the basement membrane protein, laminin, and the lactogenic hormone, prolactin. Signals from basement membrane are transduced by beta1 integrins and are required for prolactin to activate DNA binding of the milk protein gene transcription factor, Stat5. Here we show that basement membrane is necessary for tyrosine phosphorylation of the prolactin receptor and thus directly affects cytokine signaling and differentiation at the level of the plasma membrane. Prolactin does not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of its receptor, Jak2, or Stat5 in nondifferentiated breast epithelia cultured on collagen I, and we show that this is due to a vanadate-sensitive activity that inhibits the prolactin pathway. We suggest that protein-tyrosine phosphatases are novel targets for regulation by extracellular matrix and in mammary cells represent an additional control to the requirement of integrins for milk protein production.

Abstract
Phospholipase D (PLD) in lymphocytic mouse leukemic L1210 cells has been found to be activated by oleate both in vitro and in intact cells. The PLD activity was measured by phosphatidylethanol produced from radiolabeled phosphatidylcholine or myristic acid in the presence of ethanol. This oleate-activated PLD was further characterized in intact cells and compared with that in HL60 cells. Unlike PLD in HL60 cells, the PLD in L1210 cells was activated by unsaturated fatty acids, stimulated by melittin, insensitive to guanosine 5'-(3-O-thio)triphosphate (GTP gamma S), ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) and phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), independent of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and staurosporine, and inhibited by pervanadate. These observations indicate that the PLD present in L1210 cells is distinct from that in HL60 cells. Key PLD properties of L1210 cells such as insensitivity to GTP gamma S, ARF, PIP2, or PMA were in good agreement with currently known in vitro properties of the oleate-activated PLD found in mammalian sources. Therefore, the L1210 cells could be used as an intact-cell source for an oleate-activated PLD.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species function as signaling molecules, and are known to be generated under both normal and pathological conditions. Using vascular smooth muscle cells, we have demonstrated an increase in mitogen activated protein kinase activity in response to oxidants. Mitogen activated protein kinase activity increased linearly with time in cells treated with pervanadate. Hydrogen peroxide also caused rapid induction of mitogen activated protein kinase. Protein kinase C down regulation partially decreased induction of mitogen activated protein kinase activity by oxidants, and the Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin. Protein kinase C inhibitors, compound-3 and bisindolylmaleimide did not inhibit oxidant induced mitogen activated protein kinase activity, where as calphostin C activated it. The tyrosine kinase inhibitors genistein, herbimycin A and tyrphostin caused 50% inhibition of oxidant induced mitogen activated protein kinase activation. These results suggest that oxidant-induced mitogen activated protein kinase is protein kinase C independent.

Abstract
We have recently shown that expression of the GLUT1 glucose transporter isoform is augmented in cells exposed to cobalt chloride [Co(II)], an agent that stimulates the expression of hypoxia-responsive genes (Behrooz, A., Ismail-Beigi, F., 1997. J. Biol. Chem. 272, 5555-5562.). Here, we examine the effect of Co(II) on glycemia and tissue GLUT1 mRNA content of normal and diabetic rats. The addition of 2 mM Co(II) in the drinking water reduced the glycemia of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by day 3 from 32.3 +/- 2.1 to 21.0 +/- 1.9 mM (non-fasting). Co(II) resulted in no change in serum insulin levels of normal or diabetic rats. Treatment with 4 mM Co(II) was more effective than 2 mM Co(II) in reducing the glycemia of diabetic rats, while 6 mM Co(II) was associated with severe toxicity. GLUT1 mRNA content increased significantly in ventricular myocardium, renal cortex, skeletal muscle, cerebrum and liver of normal and diabetic rats treated with 2 mM cobalt chloride (ranging from 1.3- to 2.9-fold in the different tissues). It is concluded that: (1) treatment with Co(II) decreases the glycemia of diabetic rats, and (2) the glycemia-lowering effect of Co(II) is associated with, and may be mediated by, enhanced expression of GLUT1 mRNA.

Abstract
Cadherin-mediated cell-cell adhesion is perturbed in protein tyrosine kinase (PTK)-transformed cells. While cadherins themselves appear to be poor PTK substrates, their cytoplasmic binding partners, the Arm catenins, are excellent PTK substrates and therefore good candidates for mediating PTK-induced changes in cadherin behavior. These proteins, p120ctn, beta-catenin and plakoglobin, bind to the cytoplasmic region of classical cadherins and function to modulate adhesion and/or bridge cadherins to the actin cytoskeleton. In addition, as demonstrated recently for beta-catenin, these proteins also have crucial signaling roles that may or may not be related to their effects on cell-cell adhesion. Tyrosine phosphorylation of cadherin complexes is well documented and widely believed to modulate cell adhesiveness. The data to date, however, is largely correlative and the mechanism of action remains unresolved. In this review, we discuss the current literature and suggest models whereby tyrosine phosphorylation of Arm catenins contribute to regulation or perturbation of cadherin function.

Abstract
Exposure of cells to protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) inhibitors causes an increase in the phosphotyrosine content of many cellular proteins. However, the level at which the primary signaling event is affected is still unclear. We show that Jaks are activated by tyrosine phosphorylation in cells that are briefly exposed to the PTP inhibitor pervanadate (PV), resulting in tyrosine phosphorylation and functional activation of Stat6 (in addition to other Stats). Mutant cell lines that lack Jak1 activity fail to support PV-mediated [or interleukin 4 (IL-4)-dependent] activation of Stat6 but can be rescued by complementation with functional Jak1. The docking sites for both Jak1 and Stat6 reside in the cytoplasmic domain of the IL-4 receptor alpha-chain (IL-4Ralpha). The glioblastoma-derived cell lines T98G, GRE, and M007, which do not express the IL-4Ralpha chain, fail to support Stat6 activation in response to either IL-4 or PV. Complementation of T98G cells with the IL-4Ralpha restores both PV-mediated and IL-4-dependent Stat6 activation. Murine L929 cells, which do not express the gamma common chain of the IL-4 receptor, support PV-mediated but not IL-4-dependent Stat6 activation. Thus, Stat6 activation by PV is an IL-4Ralpha-mediated, Jak1-dependent event that is independent of receptor dimerization. We propose that receptor-associated constitutive PTP activity functions to down-regulate persistent, receptor-linked kinase activity. Inhibition or deletion of PTP activity results in constitutive activation of cytokine signaling pathways.

Abstract
There is growing evidence for the role of protein tyrosine phosphatases in controlling such fundamental cellular processes as growth and differentiation. Pervanadate is a potent inhibitor of protein tyrosine phosphatase which has been observed here to induce proliferation in C3H10T1/2 mouse fibroblasts. Pervanadate also translocated/activated p42/44 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase to the cell nucleus. An almost similar pattern of nuclear p42/44 MAP kinase stimulation is seen with TPA. On the other hand, TPA treatment results in a rapid activation of cytosolic MAP kinase which declines with time. Thus pervanadate appears as a very useful tool for studying tyrosine phosphorylation.
