Syk-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of 3BP2 is required for optimal FcRγ-mediated phagocytosis and chemokine expression in U937 cells. Sci Rep 2017; 7:11480.

Abstract
The adaptor protein c-Abl SH3 domain binding protein-2 (3BP2) is tyrosine phosphorylated by Syk in response to cross-linking of antigen receptors, which in turn activates various immune responses. Recently, a study using the mouse model of cherubism, a dominant inherited disorder caused by mutations in the gene encoding 3BP2, showed that 3BP2 is involved in the regulation of phagocytosis mediated by Fc receptor for IgG (FcγR) in macrophages. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying 3BP2-mediated regulation of phagocytosis and the physiological relevance of 3BP2 tyrosine phosphorylation remains elusive. In this study, we established various gene knockout U937 cell lines using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and found that 3BP2 is rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated by Syk in response to cross-linking of FcγRI. Depletion of 3BP2 caused significant reduction in the Fc receptor γ chain (FcRγ)-mediated phagocytosis in addition to the FcγRI-mediated induction of chemokine mRNA for IL-8, CCL3L3 and CCL4L2. Syk-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of 3BP2 was required for overcoming these defects. Finally, we found that the PH and SH2 domains play important roles on FcγRI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of 3BP2 in HL-60 cells. Taken together, these results indicate that Syk-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of 3BP2 is required for optimal FcRγ-mediated phagocytosis and chemokine expression.

Abstract
Approximately 500,000 people are hospitalized with severe dengue illness annually. Antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) of dengue virus (DENV) infection is believed to contribute to the pathogenic cytokine storm described in severe dengue patients, but the precise signaling pathways contributing to elevated cytokine production are not elucidated. IL-1β is a potent inflammatory cytokine that is frequently elevated during severe dengue, and the unique dual regulation of IL-1β provides an informative model to study ADE-induced cytokines. This work utilizes patient-derived anti-DENV mAbs and primary human monocytes to study ADE-induced IL-1β and other cytokines. ADE of DENV serotype 2 (DENV-2) elevates mature IL-1β secretion by monocytes independent of DENV replication by 4 h postinoculation (hpi). Prior to this, DENV immune complexes activate spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) within 1 hpi. Syk induces elevated IL1B, TNF, and IL6 mRNA by 2 hpi. Syk mediates elevated IL-1β secretion by activating ERK1/2, and both Syk and ERK1/2 inhibitors ablated ADE-induced IL-1β secretion. Maturation of pro-IL-1β during ADE requires caspase-1 and NLRP3, but caspase-1 is suboptimally increased by ADE and can be significantly enhanced by a typical inflammasome agonist, ATP. Importantly, this inflammatory Syk-ERK signaling axis requires DENV immune complexes, because DENV-2 in the presence of serotype-matched anti-DENV-2 mAb, but not anti-DENV-1 mAb, activates Syk, ERK, and IL-1β secretion. This study provides evidence that DENV-2 immune complexes activate Syk to mediate elevated expression of inflammatory cytokines. Syk and ERK may serve as new therapeutic targets for interfering with ADE-induced cytokine expression during severe dengue.

Abstract
Diverse cellular responses to external cues are controlled by a small number of signal-transduction pathways, but how the specificity of functional outcomes is achieved remains unclear. Here we describe a mechanism for signal integration based on the functional coupling of two distinct signaling pathways widely used in leukocytes: the ITAM pathway and the Jak-STAT pathway. Through the use of the receptor for interferon-γ (IFN-γR) and the ITAM adaptor Fcγ as an example, we found that IFN-γ modified responses of the phagocytic antibody receptor FcγRI (CD64) to specify cell-autonomous antimicrobial functions. Unexpectedly, we also found that in peritoneal macrophages, IFN-γR itself required tonic signaling from Fcγ through the kinase PI(3)K for the induction of a subset of IFN-γ-specific antimicrobial functions. Our findings may be generalizable to other ITAM and Jak-STAT signaling pathways and may help explain signal integration by those pathways.

Abstract
The spleen tyrosine kinase family members Syk and Zap-70 are pivotal signal transducers downstream of antigen receptors and exhibit overlapping expression patterns at early lymphocytic developmental stages. To assess their differential kinase fitness in vivo, we generated mice, which carry a Zap-70 cDNA knock-in controlled by intrinsic Syk promoter elements that disrupts wild-type Syk expression. Kinase replacement severely compromised Erk1/2-mediated survival and proper selection of developing B cells at central and peripheral checkpoints, demonstrating critical dependence on BCR signalling quality. Furthermore, ITAM- and hemITAM-mediated activation of platelets and neutrophils was completely blunted, while surprisingly FcγR-mediated phagocytosis in macrophages was retained. The alteration in BCR signalling quality resulted in preferential development and survival of marginal zone B cells and prominent autoreactivity, causing the generation of anti-insulin antibodies and age-related glomerulonephritis. Development of concomitant fasting glucose intolerance in knock-in mice highlights aberrant B cell selection as a potential risk factor for type 1 diabetes, and suggests altered BCR signalling as a mechanism to cause biased cellular and Ig repertoire selection, ultimately contributing to B cell-mediated autoimmune predisposition.

Abstract
Background Selective neutralization of the IL21/IL21R signaling pathway is a promising approach for the treatment of a variety of autoimmune diseases. Ab-01 is a human neutralizing anti-IL21R antibody. In order to ensure that the activities of Ab-01 are restricted to neutralization even under in vitro cross-linking and in vivo conditions, a comprehensive assessment of agonistic potential of Ab-01 was undertaken. Methods In vitro antibody cross-linking and cell culture protocols reported for studies with a human agonistic antibody, TGN1412, were followed for Ab-01. rhIL21, the agonist ligand of the targeted receptor, and cross-linked anti-CD28 were used as positive controls for signal transduction. In vivo agonistic potential of Ab-01 was assessed by measuring expression levels of cytokine storm-associated and IL21 pathway genes in blood of cynomolgus monkeys before and after IV administration of Ab-01. Results Using a comprehensive set of assays that detected multiple activation signals in the presence of the positive control agonists, in vitro Ab-01-dependent activation was not detected in either PBMCs or the rhIL21-responsive cell line Daudi. Furthermore, no difference in gene expression levels was detected in blood before and after in vivo Ab-01 dosing of cynomolgus monkeys. Conclusions Despite efforts to intentionally force an agonistic signal from Ab-01, none could be detected.

Abstract
Using immunohistochemistry with antibodies against the phosphoserine residues in both S6rp and 4E binding protein 1, we identified the activation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTORC)1 pathway in 29 cases of AIDS-related lymphoma. These cases represented a diverse spectrum of histological types of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (24 cases) and classic Hodgkin lymphoma (five cases). mTORC1 was also activated in the hyperplastic but not involuted follicles of HIV-associated lymphadenopathy in eight cases, supporting the notion that mTORC1 activation is a common feature of transformed lymphocytes irrespective of either their reactive or malignant phenotype. We also found that in B-cell lines that represent diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, Epstein-Barr virus-infected lymphocytes, and human herpesvirus 8-positive primary effusion lymphoma, inhibitors of Syk, MEK, and, seemingly, phosphoinositide 3 kinases suppressed mTORC1 activation, in particular when these inhibitors were used in combination. These findings indicate that AIDS-related lymphoma and other histologically similar types of lymphomas that are derived from transformed B lymphocytes may display clinical responses to inhibitors that directly target mTORC1 or, possibly, upstream activators of the mTORC1 pathway.

Abstract
The interaction of particles with certain cell surface receptors initiates intracellular signalling pathways that ultimately lead to submembranous actin filament assembly, pseudopod extension, and the ingestion of the particles. Here, Steven Greenberg reviews recent evidence implicating various signalling events in phagocytosis--in particular, activation of tyrosine kinases and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase--and speculates how they might regulate the actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
In monocytes and macrophages, activation of the tyrosine kinase Syk is an essential step in the biochemical cascade linking aggregation of receptors for immunoglobulin G (FcgammaR) to initiation of effector functions. An increase in Syk activation during differentiation of myeloid cells by different agents has been reported. We studied the activation state of Syk in response to FcgammaRII crosslinking in monocytic cells before and after in vitro differentiation with 1alpha, 25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3. We show here that while in undifferentiated THP-1 cells clustering of FcgammaRII induces significant phosphorylation and activation of Syk, in THP-1 cells differentiated in vitro by 1alpha, 25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3, FcgammaRII crosslinking induced a decrease in Syk activity. In vitro differentiation did not induce changes in the expression of FcgammaRII isoforms. The observed effect on Syk activation though FcgammaRII could be mediated by differentiation-induced changes in the expression and basal activation level of Syk, as well as changes in the association of Syk with the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. These results suggest that the biochemical signaling pathways induced by FcgammaRII could be dependent on the differentiation state of the cell.

Abstract
Fcgamma receptors are important mediators of the binding of IgG to and induction of phagocytosis in neutrophils. COS-1 cells provide a potentially useful model for studying these receptors because transfection with the FcgammaRIIA renders these cells phagocytic. During FcgammaRIIA-mediated phagocytosis in COS-1 cells, endogenous ceramide levels increased 52% by 20 min (p < 0.01). Phospholipase D activity increased by 62% (p < 0.01). Correspondingly, the phagocytic index increased by 3.7-fold by 20 min. Two inhibitors of ceramide formation were used to assess the consequences of reduced ceramide generation. l-Cycloserine, an inhibitor that blocks serine palmitoyltransferase activity, lowered both sphingosine and ceramide levels. Under these conditions, the phagocytic index increased 100% in the presence of 2 mm l-cycloserine. The formation of ceramide resulting from the N-acylation of dihydrosphingosine or sphingosine by ceramide synthase is inhibited by the fungal toxin fumonisin B(1). When cells were treated with 5-50 microm fumonisin B(1), the cellular level of ceramide decreased in a concentration-dependent manner, while simultaneously the phagocytic index increased by 52%. Concomitantly, three indirect measures of FcgammaRIIA activity were altered with the fall in ceramide levels. Syk phosphorylation, phospholipase D activity, and mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase phosphorylation were increased at 30 min. When Syk phosphorylation was blocked with piceatannol and cells were similarly challenged, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activation was blocked, but no changes in either ceramide accumulation or MAP kinase activation were observed. Ceramide formation and MAP kinase activation are therefore not dependent on Syk kinase activity in this system. These results indicate that COS-1 cells provide a useful model for the recapitulation of sphingolipid signaling in the study of phagocytosis. Ceramide formed by de novo synthesis may represent an important mechanism in the regulation of phagocytosis.

Abstract
While beta 2 integrin ligand-receptor recognition interactions are well characterized, less is known about how these events trigger signal transduction cascades to regulate the transition from tethering to firm adhesion, spreading, and transendothelial migration. We have identified critical positive and negative regulatory components of this cascade in monocytes. Whereas the Syk tyrosine kinase is essential for beta 2 integrin signaling and cell spreading, the Src family kinase Fgr is a negative regulator of this pathway. Fgr selectively inhibits beta 2 but not beta 1 integrin signaling and Syk kinase function via a direct association between the Fgr SH2 domain and Syk tyrosine Y342. The inhibitory effects of Fgr are independent of its kinase activity, are dose dependent, and can be overcome by chemokines and inflammatory mediators.

Abstract
Since the description of the first mouse knockout for an IgG Fc receptor seven years ago, considerable progress has been made in defining the in vivo functions of these receptors in diverse biological systems. The role of activating Fc gamma Rs in providing a critical link between ligands and effector cells in type II and type III inflammation is now well established and has led to a fundamental revision of the significance of these receptors in initiating cellular responses in host defense, in determining the efficacy of therapeutic antibodies, and in pathological autoimmune conditions. Considerable progress has been made in the last two years on the in vivo regulation of these responses, through the appreciation of the importance of balancing activation responses with inhibitory signaling. The inhibitory FcR functions in the maintenance of peripheral tolerance, in regulating the threshold of activation responses, and ultimately in terminating IgG mediated effector stimulation. The consequences of deleting the inhibitory arm of this system are thus manifested in both the afferent and efferent immune responses. The hyperresponsive state that results leads to greatly magnified effector responses by cytotoxic antibodies and immune complexes and can culminate in autoimmunity and autoimmune disease when modified by environmental or genetic factors. Fc gamma Rs offer a paradigm for the biological significance of balancing activation and inhibitory signaling in the expanding family of activation/inhibitory receptor pairs found in the immune system.

Abstract
Fractalkine displays features that distinguishes it from the other chemokines. In particular, besides its chemoattractant action it promotes, under physiologic flow, the rapid capture and the firm adhesion of a subset of leukocytes or intervenes in the neuron/microglia interaction. This study verified that indeed the human monocytic MonoMac6 cell line adheres to fibronectin-coated filters in response to soluble fractalkine (s-FKN). s-FKN stimulates, with distinct time courses, extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) and stress-activated protein kinases (SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38). Both p60 Src and p72 Syk were activated under s-FKN stimulation with a rapid kinetic profile compatible with a downstream regulation on the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) congeners. The use of specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors revealed that the ERK pathway is strictly controlled by Syk, whereas c-Src up-regulated the downstream SAPK2/p38. In contrast, the SAPK1/JNK1 pathway was not regulated by any of these nonreceptor tyrosine kinases. The s-FKN-mediated increased adherence of MonoMac6 cells was partially inhibited by SB202190, a broad SAPKs inhibitor, PD98059, an MEK inhibitor, LY294002, a phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase inhibitor, and a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein. These data highlight that the integration of a complex array of signal transduction pathways is necessary to complete the full s-FNK-dependent adherence of human monocytic cells to fibronectin.

Abstract
The process of engulfing a foreign particle - phagocytosis - is of fundamental importance for a wide diversity of organisms. From simple unicellular organisms that use phagocytosis to obtain their next meal, to complex metazoans in which phagocytic cells represent an essential branch of the immune system, evolution has armed cells with a fantastic repertoire of molecules that serve to bring about this complex event. Regardless of the organism or specific molecules concerned, however, all phagocytic processes are driven by a finely controlled rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton. A variety of signals can converge to locally reorganise the actin cytoskeleton at a phagosome, and there are significant similarities and differences between different organisms and between different engulfment processes within the same organism. Recent advances have demonstrated the complexity of phagocytic signalling, such as the involvement of phosphoinostide lipids and multicomponent signalling complexes in transducing signals from phagocytic receptors to the cytoskeleton. Similarly, a wide diversity of ‘effector molecules’ are now implicated in actin-remodelling downstream of these receptors.

Abstract
Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a major chemoattractant for monocytes and T lymphocytes. The MonoMac6 cell line was used to examine MCP-1 receptor-mediated signal transduction events in relation to MCP-1-mediated monocytic transendothelial migration. MCP-1 stimulates, with distinct time courses, extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) and stress-activated protein kinases (SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38). SAPK1/JNK1 activation was blocked by piceatannol, indicating that it is regulated by Syk kinase, whereas SAPK2/p38 activation was inhibited by PP2, revealing an upstream regulation by Src-like kinases. In contrast, ERK activation was insensitive to PP2 and piceatannol. Pertussis toxin, a blocker of Go/Gi proteins, abrogated MCP-1-induced ERK activation, but was without any effect on SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38 activation. These results underscore the major implication of Go/Gi proteins and nonreceptor tyrosine kinases in the early MCP-1 signaling. Furthermore, MCP-1-mediated chemotaxis and transendothelial migration were significantly diminished by a high concentration of SB202190, a broad SAPK inhibitor, or by SB203580, a specific inhibitor of SAPK2/p38, and abolished by pertussis toxin treatment. Altogether, these data suggest that coordinated action of distinct signal pathways is required to produce a full response to MCP-1 in terms of monocytic locomotion.

Abstract
Receptors for the constant region of IgG, Fc gamma receptors, are expressed on the surface of hematopoietic cells, where they mediate signaling events, such as phagocytosis, essential for host defense. Fc gamma receptors also play a role in the pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases. We have demonstrated that members of each of the three classes of human Fc gamma receptors, Fc gamma RI, Fc gamma RII, and Fc gamma RIII, mediate phagocytosis, but that important differences exist in their requirements for phagocytic signaling. For example, the Fc gamma receptors Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RIIIA induce signaling largely by association with a gamma subunit containing a conserved cytoplasmic motif (ITAM) whose tyrosines are phosphorylated following receptor stimulation. Fc gamma RIIA contains a similar motif in its own cytoplasmic domain and does not require the gamma chain for phagocytic signaling. The tyrosine kinase Syk associates with the cytoplasmic domain of both the Fc gamma receptor gamma chain and Fc gamma RIIA and is required for phagocytosis by both Fc gamma receptor systems. To elucidate the differences in phagocytic signaling by the gamma chain and Fc gamma RIIA, we investigated the requirements for Fc gamma receptor/Syk co-immunoprecipitation, tyrosine phosphorylation, and phagocytosis. Both Fc gamma RIIA and the human gamma chain contain a tyrosine seven amino acids upstream of the ITAM motif. We observed that the upstream tyrosine plays a role in Fc gamma RIIA phagocytic signaling but is not involved in phagocytic signaling by the human gamma chain. Our data also indicate that the two ITAM tyrosines of the human gamma chain and Fc gamma RIIA do not contribute equally to Fc gamma receptor association with Syk kinase and phagocytic signaling. The data indicate that the carboxy-terminal tyrosine of the receptor cytoplasmic domain is especially important both for the interaction with Syk kinase and for phagocytosis. Elucidating such differences in gamma chain and Fc gamma RIIA signaling may be valuable in designing strategies for therapeutic intervention in hematopoietic and immunological disorders.

Abstract
The class IIa of low-affinity receptors for the Fc region of IgG, Fc gamma RIIa, are expressed on immune cells. The cross-linking of Fc gamma RIIa by complexed IgG triggers activation of protein tyrosine kinase and internalization of immune complexes. In this report, we demonstrate the expression of Fc gamma RIIa by a human melanoma cell line (VIO) derived from a metastasis of a patient with regressive melanoma. The analysis of Fc gamma RIIa functions was performed in VIO cells and Fc gamma RlIa- or Fc gamma RIlb-transfected human melanoma cells (A375). The Fc gamma RIIa cross-linking induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation, including Fc gamma RIIa phosphorylation, and led to its internalization in a clathrin-independent way in human melanoma cells. Moreover, we showed that a part of internalized Fc gamma RIIa migrates in late endosomes, lysosomes and class II-containing compartments. These results suggest that melanoma cells can express functional Fc gamma RII, which might play a role in tumor-host relationships.

Abstract
Signals transmitted by class II major histocompatibility complex are important regarding cell function related to antigen presentation. We examined effects of DR-mediated signaling on Ig production from B cells. Cross-linking HLA-DR molecules on B cells by solid-phase anti-HLA-DR monoclonal antibodies, led to an increased production of IgM, without proliferation or apoptosis. This event was accompanied by an enhanced expression of both membrane- and secretory-type IgM heavy chain mRNA. When peptide-pulsed B cells were co-incubated with an HLA-DR-restricted T cell clone treated by the protein synthesis inhibitor emetine, peptide-induced de novo expression of lymphokines and cell-surface molecules on T cells can be neglected. CD40-CD154 interaction was not involved in IgM enhancement, in such a system. The protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitors and the Syk inhibitor piceatannol, but not the Src inhibitor PP2 had a marked inhibitory effect on IgM secretion. Furthermore, ligation of HLA-DR on B cells using the F(ab')2 fragment of anti-DR monoclonal antibody, enhanced Syk activity. Our data suggest that HLA-DR on B cells not only present antigenic peptides to T cells, but also up-regulate IgM production, in association with Syk activation and without the involvement of Src kinases, hence the possible physiological relevance of Src-independent Syk activation.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinase p72(Syk) plays a critical role in platelet signal transduction. It associates with the platelet receptor for the Fc domain of IgGs, FcgammaRII, following stimulation by FcgammaRII cross-linking. Here, we show that p72(Syk) and FcgammaRII tyrosine phosphorylation and association occured following platelet stimulation by: (1) two monoclonal antibodies, which form a bridge between a target antigen and FcgammaRII, and (2) the G-protein-coupled receptor agonist thrombin. The kinetics of the p72(Syk)/FcgammaRII association depended on the signalling pathway (i.e., the antigen targeted or the thrombin receptor). We established a direct relationship between the level of FcgammaRII phosphorylation and the detection of its association with p72(Syk). Inhibition of p72(Syk) by piceatannol resulted in partial or total inhibition of FcgammaRII phosphorylation, after immunological activation or addition of thrombin, respectively, suggesting that p72(Syk) participates in FcgammaRII phosphorylation. The results provide evidence that p72(Syk)/FcgammaRII association is not restricted to immunological activation.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine kinase Syk plays an essential role in Fc epsilon RI-mediated histamine release in mast cells by regulating the phosphorylation of other proteins. We investigated the functional role of a putative Syk phosphorylation site, Tyr317. This tyrosine in the linker region of Syk is a possible site for binding by the negative regulator Cbl. Syk with Tyr317 mutated to Phe (Y317F) was expressed in a Syk-negative variant of the RBL-2H3 mast cells. Compared with cells expressing wild-type Syk, expression of the Y317F mutant resulted in an increase in the Fc epsilon RI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of phospholipase C-gamma and a dramatic enhancement of histamine release. The in vivo Fc epsilon RI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of wild-type Syk and that of the Y317F mutant were similar. Although the Fc epsilon RI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of total cellular proteins was enhanced in the cells expressing the Y317F Syk, the phosphorylation of some other molecules, including the receptor subunits, Vav and mitogen-activated protein kinase, was not increased. The Fc epsilon RI-induced phosphorylation of Cbl was downstream of Syk kinase activity and was unchanged by expression of the Y317F mutation. These data indicate that Tyr317 in the linker region of Syk functions to negatively regulate the signals leading to degranulation.

Abstract
Abstract
We investigated the requirement for Syk activation to initiate downstream signaling events during polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) phagocytosis of Ab-coated erythrocytes (EIgG). When PMN were challenged with EIgG, Syk phosphorylation increased in a time-dependent manner, paralleling the response of PMN phagocytosis. Pretreatment of PMN with piceatannol, a Syk-selective inhibitor, blocked EIgG phagocytosis and Syk phosphorylation. We found that piceatannol inhibited protein kinase Cδ (PKCδ) and Raf-1 translocation from cytosol to plasma membrane by >90%. Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase-1 and -2 (ERK1 and ERK2) phosphorylation was similarly blocked. We also investigated phosphatidylinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase) activity and Syk phosphorylation using piceatannol, wortmannin, and LY294002, inhibitors of PI 3-kinase. The phosphorylation of Syk preceded the activation of PI 3-kinase. Both wortmannin and piceatannol inhibited PI 3-kinase, but only piceatannol inhibited Syk. In contrast to piceatannol, wortmannin did not inhibit PKCδ and Raf-1 translocation. To elucidate signaling downstream of Syk activation, we assessed whether the cell-permeable diacylglycerol analogue didecanoylglycerol could normalize PMN phagocytosis, PKCδ and Raf-1 translocation, and ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation inhibited by piceatannol. The addition of didecanoylglycerol to the Syk-inhibited phagocytosing PMN normalized all three without a concomitant effect on PI 3-kinase activity and Syk phosphorylation. We conclude that Syk activation following Fcγ receptor engagement initiates downstream signaling events leading to mitogen-activated protein kinase activation independent of PI 3-kinase activation.

Abstract
Human neutrophils express two different types of phagocytic receptors, complement receptors (CR) and Fc receptors. In order to characterize the different signaling properties of each receptor we have used non-adherent human neutrophils and investigated CR3, FcgammaRIIA and FcgammaRIIIB for their signaling capacity. Selective activation of each receptor was achieved by coupling specific antibodies to heat-killed Staphylococcus aureus particles, Pansorbins, through their Fc moiety. Despite the fact that these particles are not phagocytosed, we show that addition of Pansorbins with anti-CD18 antibodies recognizing CR3 induced prominent signals leading to a respiratory burst. Stimulation with anti-FcgammaRIIIB Pansorbins induced about half of the response induced by anti-CR3 Pansorbins, whereas anti-FcgammaRIIA Pansorbins induced an even weaker signal. However, FcgammaRIIA induced strong phosphorylation of p72(syk) whereas FcgammaRIIIB induced only a very weak p72(syk) phosphorylation. During CR3 stimulation no tyrosine phosphorylation of p72(syk) was seen. Both phospholipase D and NADPH oxidase activities were dependent on intracellular calcium. This is in contrast to tyrosine phosphorylation of p72(syk) that occurred even in calcium-depleted cells, indicating that oxygen metabolism does not affect p72(syk) phosphorylation. Inhibitors of tyrosine phosphorylation blocked the respiratory burst induced by both FcgammaRIIA and FcgammaRIIIB as well as CR3. This shows that tyrosine phosphorylation of p72(syk) is an early signal in the cascade induced by FcgammaRIIA but not by CR3.

Abstract
Adhesion is associated with tyrosine phosphorylation in many types of cells. Although macrophages are known to adhere and phagocytose foreign particles, the signal transduction pathway of macrophages in response to adhesion to the foreign substrate has not been fully investigated. In the present study we investigated tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and phosphorylation of paxillin in alveolar macrophages (AMs) following adhesion to a plastic substrate. Adhesion to a plastic dish resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of a 68 000 MW protein, which was shown, by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting in the present study, to be a rat Syk kinase. Treatment with erbstatin reduced both tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk and adherence of AMs, while treatment with cytochalasin B inhibited spreading of AMs but did not inhibit tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk. These results suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk plays an important role in adhesion of AMs to the plastic substrate, but not in AM spreading. Paxillin is known to be tyrosine phosphorylated following adhesion to the extracellular matrix in many types of cells. However, paxillin appeared to be serine/threonine phosphorylated rather than tyrosine phosphorylated following adhesion of AMs to the plastic substrate. Treatment with A23187 (a calcium ionophore), but not phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; a protein kinase C stimulator), induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk in non-adherent AMs. Treatment with either A23187 or PMA caused electromobility changes of paxillin that were mainly a result of serine/threonine phosphorylation. These results suggest that adhesion to the plastic substrate leads to two differently regulated events in AMs: tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk and serine/threonine phosphorylation of paxillin, both of which are probably mediated by an increase in intracellular calcium.

Abstract
Phagocytosis of pathogens by macrophages initiates the innate immune response, which in turn orchestrates the adaptive response. In order to discriminate between infectious agents and self, macrophages have evolved a restricted number of phagocytic receptors, like the mannose receptor, that recognize conserved motifs on pathogens. Pathogens are also phagocytosed by complement receptors after relatively nonspecific opsonization with complement and by Fc receptors after specific opsonization with antibodies. All these receptors induce rearrangements in the actin cytoskeleton that lead to the internalization of the particle. However, important differences in the molecular mechanisms underlying phagocytosis by different receptors are now being appreciated. These include differences in the cytoskeletal elements that mediate ingestion, differences in vacuole maturation, and differences in inflammatory responses. Infectious agents, such as M. tuberculosis, Legionella pneumophila, and Salmonella typhimurium, enter macrophages via heterogeneous pathways and modify vacuolar maturation in a manner that favors their survival. Macrophages also play an important role in the recognition and clearance of apoptotic cells; a notable feature of this process is the absence of an inflammatory response.

Abstract
Mouse macrophage cell lines such as J774 express Fc receptors for IgG2a immune complexes, which upon binding of the proper ligand, trigger several signal transduction pathways. A surface to nucleus signaling through these receptors has been demonstrated. We describe here the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and an increase in the binding of the activator protein 1 (AP-1) to DNA upon receptor stimulation. The described effects are only partially blocked by inhibitors of the Ca2+/diacylglycerol-dependent protein kinase (PKC), suggesting that differential signaling pathways are activated upon receptor cross-linking and that they converge at or above the MAPK level. These results pave the way to our understanding of Fc gammaR cross-linking induced gene expression regulation.

Abstract
Treatment of HUT78 cells with CD4-binding peptide constructs derived from the C4 domain of HIV-1 gp120 results in autophosphorylation of a src-related kinase, p56lck. This leads to p56lck activation and the subsequent phosphorylation of tyrosine residues in several intracellular proteins. The phosphorylation is specific to the C4 peptides as no new phosphorylation occurs when the cells are treated with control peptides or polymers. The induction of tyrosine phosphorylation by the C4 peptide constructs depends on the capability of the peptide to assume a helical conformation because similar peptide constructs that were not able to form helices did not induce cellular tyrosine phosphorylation.

Abstract
Fc gamma receptors on monocytes/macrophages play an important role in both host defense and autoimmune disorders. Fc gamma receptor signaling can lead to such downstream events as phagocytosis and the release of intracellular cytokines and reactive oxygen species. Freshly isolated human monocytes express two major classes of Fc gamma receptor proteins, Fc gamma RI (CD64) and Fc gamma RII (CD32). Crosslinking of Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII gives rise to rapid and transient phosphorylation of multiple monocyte intracellular proteins including proteins of 40, 68-72, 75-85, 95, and 115-165 kDa. A 72-kDa protein was earlier identified as the tyrosine kinase Syk. Here we identify one of the proteins in the 115- to 165-kDa cluster as FAK, a protein tyrosine kinase localized to focal adhesions. A 68-kDa phosphoprotein was identified as paxillin, a cytoskeleton associated substrate for tyrosine kinases, and a 95-kDa protein was found to be the proto-oncogene product Vav. The Src family protein tyrosine kinase Fgr (p58) also displayed enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation after Fc gamma RI and Fc gamma RII crosslinking. Although Fc gamma RIIA utilizes tyrosines within its own cytoplasmic domain for signaling while Fc gamma RI utilizes the cytoplasmic tyrosines of its associated gamma subunit, our results indicate sharing of several proteins for signaling in monocytes by these Fc receptors. These molecules include three distinct classes of tyrosine kinases, Syk, FAK, and Fgr, and the functionally diverse proteins Vav and paxillin.

Abstract
Erythropoietin (Epo) regulates the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid cells through interaction with a cell surface receptor (EpoR) that belongs to the cytokine receptor family. The Jak2 tyrosine kinase was previously shown to bind to the EpoR, to be activated upon Epo stimulation, and to play a critical role in Epo-induced proliferation. However, little is known about the role of other tyrosine kinases in Epo signaling. In this paper, we examined whether Syk was involved in EpoR activation. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments showed that the phosphorylated EpoR was associated with the Syk kinase in activated UT7 cells. The interaction of Epo with its receptor led to an increased kinase activity. The use of recombinant Syk Src homology 2 (SH2) domains expressed in tandem or individually revealed that both N- and C-SH2 domains of Syk participated in EpoR binding with a major contribution of the C-terminal SH2 domain. Far Western blotting further indicated that Syk directly binds to the EpoR and that the interaction of Syk with EpoR only occurred after Epo activation. These data suggest that phosphorylation of EpoR on tyrosine residues may mediate Syk binding to the receptor through interaction between the two SH2 domains of Syk and tyrosines of the receptor. We propose that in addition to Jak2, Syk protein kinase may be a component of EpoR signaling.

Abstract
Signalling by the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) has been studied intensively, but for most cell types the analysis is complicated by the fact that EGFR not only homodimerizes but can also form heterodimers with other EGFR family members. Heterodimerization is a particular problem in the study of EGFR mutants, where the true phenotype of the mutants is confounded by the contribution of the heterodimer partner to signal transduction. We have made use of the murine hemopoietic cell line BaF/3, which does not express EGFR family members, to express wild-type (WT) EGFR, three kinase-defective EGFR mutants (V741G, Y740F, and K721R), or a C-terminally truncated EGFR (CT957) and have measured their responses to EGF. We found that under the appropriate conditions EGF can stimulate cell proliferation of BaF/3 cells expressing WT or CT957 EGFRs but not that of cells expressing the kinase-defective mutants. However, EGF promotes the survival of BaF/3 cells expressing either of the kinase-defective receptors (V741G and Y740F), indicating that these receptors can still transmit a survival signal. Analysis of the early signalling events by the WT, V741G, and Y740F mutant EGF receptors indicated that EGF stimulates comparable levels of Shc phosphorylation, Shc-GRB-2 association, and activation of Ras, B-Raf, and Erk-1. Blocking the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling pathway with the specific inhibitor PD98059 abrogates completely the EGF-dependent survival of cells expressing the kinase-defective EGFR mutants but has no effect on the EGF-dependent proliferation mediated by WT and CT957 EGFRs. Similarly, the Src family kinase inhibitor PP1 abrogates EGF-dependent survival without affecting proliferation. However blocking phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase or JAK-2 kinase with specific inhibitors does arrest growth factor-dependent cell proliferation. Thus, EGFR-mediated mitogenic signalling in BaF/3 cells requires an intact EGFR tyrosine kinase activity and appears to depend on the activation of both the JAK-2 and PI-3 kinase pathways. Activation of the Src family of kinases or of the Ras/MAPK pathway can, however, be initiated by a kinase-impaired EGFR and is linked to survival.

Abstract
Abstract
The Syk protein tyrosine kinase is an essential component of the B cell Ag receptor signaling pathway. Syk is phosphorylated on tyrosine following B cell activation. However, the sites that are modified and the kinases responsible for these modifications have yet to be determined. To approach this problem, we used a mapping strategy based on the electrophoretic separation of peptides on alkaline polyacrylamide gels to identify the tryptic phosphopeptides derived from metabolically labeled Syk. In this work, we report that Syk from activated B cells is phosphorylated principally on six tyrosines: one located between the tandem SH2 domains (Tyr130); three in the linker region (Tyr317, Tyr342, and Tyr346); and two in the catalytic domain (Tyr519 and Tyr520). The linker region sites are the primary targets of the Src family protein tyrosine kinase, Lyn, and include a site that negatively (Tyr317) regulates receptor signaling. Efficient phosphorylation of the catalytic domain and inter-SH2 domain tyrosines is catalyzed primarily by Syk itself, but only occurs to an appreciable extent in cells that express Lyn. We propose that these sites are phosphorylated following the binding of Syk to immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif.

Abstract
Receptors for the Fc portion of immunoglobulin molecules (FcR) present on leukocyte cell membranes mediate a large number of cellular responses that are very important in host defense, including phagocytosis, cell cytotoxicity, production and secretion of inflammatory mediators, and modulation of the immune response. Cross-linking of FcR with immune complexes leads, first to activation of protein-tyrosine kinases. The molecular events that follow and that transduce signals from these receptors to the nucleus are still poorly defined. We have investigated the signal transduction pathway from Fc receptors that leads to gene activation and production of cytokines in monocytes. Cross-linking of FcR, on the THP-1 monocytic cell line, by immune complexes resulted in both activation of the transcription factor NF-kappaB and interleukin 1 production. These responses were completely blocked by tyrosine kinase inhibitors. In contrast, expression of dominant negative mutants of Ras and Raf-1, in these cells, did not have any effect on FcR-mediated nuclear factor activation, suggesting that the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was not used by these receptors. However, MAPK activation was easily detected by in vitro kinase assays, after FcR cross-linking with immune complexes. Using the specific MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase (MAPK kinase) inhibitor PD98059, we found that MAPK activation is necessary for FcR-dependent activation of the nuclear factor NF-kappaB. These results strongly suggest that the signaling pathway from Fc receptors leading to expression of different genes important to leukocyte biology, initiates with tyrosine kinases and requires MAPK activation; but in contrast to other tyrosine kinase receptors, FcR-mediated MAPK activation does not involve Ras and Raf.

Abstract
The function and the outside-in signaling pathways of IIbβ3 were examined in relation to cell adhesion using a megakaryoblastic leukemia cell line, CMK. After 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) treatment, the cells adhered to the culture plate and underwent megakaryocytic differentiation with expression of IIbβ3. Binding of soluble fibrinogen to the cells via IIbβ3 was dependent on cell adhesion. Cell detaching reduced the affinity of this integrin for soluble fibrinogen, although its surface expression was almost unchanged. In contrast, detached cells became tightly adherent to the fibrinogen-coated plate (solid-phase fibrinogen). The same ligand, fibrinogen, present either in soluble or solid-phase form, triggered differential signaling pathways mediated by IIbβ3. By the stimulation with soluble fibrinogen, Syk was tyrosine-phosphorylated but FAK was dephosphorylated, whereas solid-phase fibrinogen promptly caused tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK followed by delayed phosphorylation of Syk. In addition, the binding of soluble fibrinogen to the cells adherent to fibrinogen-coated plate resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of integrin β3 and a complex formation of integrin β3 with Syk. This implies the cooperation of both soluble and solid-phase fibrinogen-mediated signaling pathways.© 1998 by The American Society of Hematology.

Abstract
Having previously associated metabolic oscillations with cell locomotion, we hypothesized that patients with abnormalities in neutrophil trafficking may display aberrant intracellular oscillations. A pyoderma gangrenosum patient exhibiting aberrant leukocyte trafficking in vivo and skin ulceration without infection was identified. This patient's neutrophils constitutively overexpressed and clustered the leukocyte integrins CR3 and CR4 and failed to display appropriate integrin-to-GPI receptor interactions. Increased levels of tyrosine phosphorylation were observed. NAD(P)H oscillations, which are sinusoidal in normals, were chaotic with multiple frequency components in this patient's neutrophils. Normal cell shape and sinusoidal NAD(P)H oscillations were restored by providing a pulsed electric field to drive metabolic oscillations and by temperature reduction. N-acetyl-D-glucosamine disrupted CR3 clusters and sinusoidal NAD(P)H oscillations returned. Anecdotal reports suggest that local hypothermia is clinically useful for this patient. These data define the first metabolic oscillation-associated disease and suggest that pyoderma gangrenosum can be classified as a dynamical disease at the cellular level.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In human blood basophils, cross-linking the high-affinity IgE receptor Fc epsilonRI with multivalent antigen activates a signaling pathway leading to Ca2+ mobilization, actin polymerization, shape changes, secretion, and cytokine production. METHODS AND RESULTS The role of tyrosine kinases in human Fc epsilonRI signaling was explored by using human basophils isolated by Percoll gradient centrifugation followed by negative and/or positive selection with antibody-coated magnetic beads. Fc epsilonRI cross-linking of more than 95% pure basophil preparations activates the protein-tyrosine kinases Lyn and Syk, previously linked to Fc epsilonRI-coupled rodent mast cell activation, as well as Zap-70, previously implicated in T-cell receptor signaling, and causes the tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins. The presence of Lyn, Syk, and Zap-70 in basophils was confirmed by Western blotting in lysates of highly purified basophils and independently by confocal fluorescence microscopy in cells labeled simultaneously with kinase-specific antibodies and with the basophil-specific antibody 2D7. Comparable amounts of Lyn and Syk were found in basophils and B cells, whereas T cells appear to have greater amounts of Zap-70 than basophils. The tyrosine kinase inhibitor piceatannol spares IgE-mediated Lyn activation but inhibits IgE-induced Syk and Zap-70 activation as well as overall protein tyrosine phosphorylation and secretion. Overall protein-tyrosine phosphorylation increases steadily over a range of anti-IgE concentrations that are low to optimal for secretion. However, tyrosine phosphorylation continues to increase at high anti-IgE concentrations that elicit very little secretion (the characteristic high-dose inhibition of secretion). CONCLUSIONS Our data demonstrate the association of anti-IgE-stimulated, protein-tyrosine phosphorylation by a cascade of tyrosine kinases, including Zap-70 as well as Lyn and Syk, with the initiation of Fc epsilonRI-mediated signaling in human basophils.

Abstract
This review describes structures which determine the biological activities triggered by Fc gamma R and account for the cell-mediated functions of IgG antibodies in physiology and pathology. The binding specificity and affinity of Fc gamma R depend primarily on IgG-binding structures, in their immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains. Binding is however also influenced by subunits that associate to multichain Fc gamma R. Effector and regulatory intracytoplasmic sequences that are unique to molecules of the Fc gamma RIIB family determine the internalization properties of these receptors. Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs (ITAMs) are intracytoplasmic effector sequences shared by Fc gamma R and other receptors involved in the recognition of antigen, which trigger cell activation and internalization. Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Inhibition Motifs (ITIMs) are intracytoplasmic sequences, shared by Fc gamma RIIB and a growing number of negative coreceptors which negatively regulate cell activation via ITAM-bearing receptors. Altogether, these structures enable IgG antibodies to exert a variety of finely tuned biological effects during the immune response.

Abstract
Human IgG receptors constitute a family of glycoprotein complexes consisting of ligand-binding, and associated signaling chains. Three leukocyte classes (Fc gamma RI, II, and III) and one separate endothelial Fc gamma R class (FcRB) are defined which are expressed on hematopoietic and endothelial cells. Upon interaction with IgG, Fc gamma R initiate a plethora of signaling cascades involving receptor signaling motifs, and protein tyrosine kinases and phosphatases. These cascades ultimately culminate in activation or deactivation of effector cells, resulting in initiation or down-modulation of cellular processes. Recent evidence points to a crucial in vivo role of Fc gamma R in both initiation and regulation of inflammatory and cytotoxic responses. These Fc gamma R-mediated immune responses can be exploited to develop novel immunotherapies.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) transmit activation signals in almost every cell type, including immune effector cells. The aberrant or constitutive activation of PTKs can often cause neoplastic transformation. The use of chimeric receptors based on PTKs may enable us to elucidate the signaling pathways of normal immune cells and other cell types, and the abnormal events that can lead to malignant transformation. In this review, we focus on antigen specific chimeric PTKs in which antibody-derived scFv are joined to the Syk family of PTKs. These chimeric receptors yielded reagents that can selectively redirect immune effector cells and specifically activate them to produce cytokines or lyse their target. The advantages of using such PTK-based chimeras to redirect lymphocytes to tumor targets and their potential as an immunotherapeutic approach to malignant disease is discussed.

Abstract
In this report, we show that the Src family nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) Lyn associates with aggregated IgA Fc receptor (FcαR) in the monocytic cell line THP-1. Receptor aggregation and subsequent immunoprecipitation of receptor complexes with huIgA adsorbed to nitrocellulose particles shows that Lyn associates with FcαR by a mechanism sensitive to short treatment with the Src family-selective inhibitor PP1. However, interaction of Lyn with IgG Fc receptor (FcγR) in THP-1 cells was unaffected by short treatment with the PTK inhibitor. Cross-linking of FcαR induced tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins, including p72Syk, which appears to be a major target of early PTK activity. Unexpectedly, in vitro kinase assays showed that FcαR aggregation-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk did not result in upregulation of Syk activity. Despite the lack of enhanced Syk kinase activity, downstream signaling after FcαR cross-linking was functional and induced the release of significant amounts of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist and interleukin-8. The induction of cytokine release was completely blocked by PP1, thus confirming the biological significance of the association of Lyn with aggregated FcαR. Our data show that early signal transduction after FcαR cross-linking as well as FcαR-mediated activation of cellular effector functions depends on Src family kinase activity. The Src-family PTK involved in FcαR-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation appears to be Lyn, which coprecipitated with aggregated FcαR complexes.

Abstract
Abstract
T cells of tumor bearers often show defective TCR-mediated signaling events and, therefore, exhibit impaired immune responses. As such, patients with heavy tumor burden are often not amenable to adoptive T cell therapy. To overcome this limitation, we have developed a chimeric receptor that joins an extracellular single chain Fv (scFv) of a specific Ab for Ag recognition to an intracellular protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) for signal propagation. Stimulation through the scFv-PTK receptor should bypass defective TCR-proximal events and directly access the T cell’s effector mechanisms. In this study we describe the optimization of a scFv-PTK configuration, leading to complete T cell activation. The cytosolic PTK Syk is superior to its family member, Zap-70, for intracellular signaling. As a transmembrane (TM) domain, CD4 performs better than CD8 when plastic-immobilized Ag serves as a stimulator. However, when APC are used to trigger chimeric receptors, the need for a flexible spacer between the scFv and TM domains becomes apparent. The CD8α-derived hinge successfully performs this task in chimeric scFv-Syk receptors regardless of its cysteine content. A cytotoxic T cell hybridoma expressing chimeric receptor genes composed of scFv-CD8hinge-CD8TM-Syk or scFv-CD8hinge-CD4TM-Syk is efficiently stimulated to produce IL-2 upon interaction with APC and specifically lyses appropriate target cells in a non-MHC-restricted manner.

Abstract
Protein-tyrosine kinases and phosphatases play an important role in cytokine-mediated cell growth. The proliferation of a human myeloid leukemia cell line, AML193, is dependent on interleukin-3 (IL-3) or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor. In the current study, we demonstrated that a non-receptor-type protein-tyrosine kinase, Syk, was immediately activated by the stimulation with IL-3 or granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in AML193 cells. We further investigated the relation of Syk with IL-3-mediated signaling and found that the IL-3 receptor beta subunit was immunoprecipitated with Syk. Since the IL-3 receptor beta subunit is known to mediate growth signaling, our results indicate that Syk may be involved in the proliferation of myeloid cells.

Abstract
The cytoplasmic tail of Fc(gamma)RIIa present on human neutrophils shares with other antigen receptors a common amino acid sequence called ITAM (Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motif). After receptor ligation, the tyrosine residues within this motif become phosphorylated. We prepared a recombinant fusion protein of the cytoplasmic tail of Fc(gamma)RIIa (containing the ITAM) with glutathione-S-Transferase (GST-CT) to characterize the phosphorylation of Fc(gamma)RIIa and its ability to interact with other proteins involved in signal transduction. The GST-CT became phosphorylated in the presence of Lyn, Hck and Syk (immunoprecipitated from human neutrophils), but not in the presence of Fgr. Of the active kinases, only Lyn (mainly present in the membrane fraction) was found to associate with the GST-CT in the absence of ATP. This association was also observed in immunoprecipitates of Fc(gamma)RIIa from resting neutrophils, suggesting that Lyn might be the kinase responsible for the initial Fc(gamma)RIIa phosphorylation. Moreover, we observed specific association of Syk and the p85 subunit of PI 3-kinase after incubation of the GST-CT with neutrophil cytosol. This interaction was dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation of the GST-CT. Substitution of 269Tyr by Phe almost completely abolished tyrosine phosphorylation of the fusion protein. Substitution of either 253Tyr or 269Tyr eliminated Syk binding, but only 253Tyr appeared to be essential for p85 binding. We hypothesize that, upon activation, the membrane-associated Lyn is responsible for the initial tyrosine phosphorylation of Fc(gamma)RIIa, thus creating a docking site for Syk and PI 3-kinase.

Abstract
The tyrosine kinases Syk and Lyn are activated in B lymphocytes following antibody induced cross-linking of the B cell receptor for antigen (BCR). It has been suggested that activation of Syk is dependent on Lyn. We tested this hypothesis by comparing the phosphorylation and activation of several downstream effector molecules in parental DT40, DT40Syk- and DT40Lyn- B cells. The phosphorylation and activation of p90Rsk was ablated in Syk-deficient B cells but unaffected in Lyn-deficient B cells while the phosphorylation/activation of Ras GTPase activating protein (Ras GAP) and mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase required both Syk and Lyn. Thus, these data indicate that Syk can be activated in the absence of Lyn after BCR cross-linking and results in the activation of p90Rsk via a MAP kinase-independent pathway in DT40Lyn- cells. We also demonstrated that BCR mediates the activation of p70S6k. However, activation of p70S6k in DT40Syk- and DT40Lyn- cells was comparable with that observed in parental cells. Thus, either Syk or Lyn may be sufficient for activation of p70S6k, or activation of p70S6k occurs independently of both Syk and Lyn. The kinase activity of Syk was required for the phosphorylation/activation of each of these downstream effector molecules but only the phosphorylation of Ras GAP was affected in cells expressing a mutant of Syk in which tyrosines 525 and 526 were substituted to phenlyalanines.

Abstract
The cells of the immune system express a wide variety of receptors, defined as immunoreceptors because they are involved in antigen recognition. B and T lymphocytes express clonally distributed receptors which recognize either soluble antigens, through B-cell receptors (BcR), or peptides associated to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, through T-cell receptors (TcR). Many lymphoid or myeloid cells, such as B lymphocytes, macrophages or dendritic cells, express receptors for antigen-antibody complexes, which recognize the Fc portion of immunoglobulins (FcR). Although their ligands are different, immunoreceptors share both structural and functional homologies. The BcRs, TcRs and most FcRs, are multichain complexes composed of a ligand binding module, including one or two chains which determine the specificity of antigen recognition and a transducing module, which includes two to six chains containing a conserved motif in their cytoplasmic tail (A.D. Keegan and W.E. Paul, Immunol. Today 13 (1992) 63-68). This motif, called ITAM for immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (M.G. Reth, Nature 338 (1989) 383-384 and J.C. Cambier, Immunol. Today 16 (1995) 110-114) consists of five conserved amino acid residues precisely spaced over an amino acid sequence (D2xY2xL7x2xL). ITAMs couple receptors to intracellular effectors which induce a cascade of events leading to both cell activation and to down regulation of the receptors. This review focuses on recent data supporting the involvement of cytosolic effectors of cell activation in the endosomal transport of immunoreceptors. The possible role of these cytosolic factors in lysosomal transport and MHC class II restricted antigen presentation is discussed.
