Abstract
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing inflammatory skin disease with a complex pathophysiology. Treatment of AD remains challenging owing to the presence of a wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes and limited response to existing therapies. However, recent genetic, immunological, and pathophysiological insights into the disease mechanism resulted in the invention of novel therapeutic drug candidates. This review provides a comprehensive overview of current therapies and assesses various novel drug delivery strategies currently under clinical investigation. Further, this review majorly emphasizes on various topical treatments including emollient therapies, barrier repair agents, topical corticosteroids (TCS), phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitors, calcineurin inhibitors, and Janus kinase (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway inhibitors. It also discusses biological and systemic therapies, upcoming treatments based on ongoing clinical trials. Additionally, this review scrutinized the use of pharmaceutical inactive ingredients in the approved topical dosage forms for AD treatment.

Abstract
Purpose Src homology 2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) gene is associated with arthrosclerosis, gastric cancer and diabetes. In this study, we revealed that overexpression of SHIP2 is closely implicated with the development of breast cancer (BC). Methods The BC tissue and adjacent cancerous tissue were obtained from BC patients who had underwent mastectomy. BC cells with either overexpression or knockdown of SHIP2 were analyzed to determine cell proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis using the CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, scratch assay, transwell assay and flow cytometry, respectively. A rat BC xenograft model was constructed to explore the role of SHIP2 on tumor growth in vivo. Results The expression levels of SHIP2 in BC tissues and cells were significantly higher than those in adjacent tissues and normal breast cells, respectively. Silencing SHIP2 suppressed BC cells proliferation and promoted apoptosis. Overexpression of SHIP2 enhanced the cells migration/invasion in BC. Moreover, SHIP2 participated in the Wnt/β-catenin pathway by regulating GSK-3β and its downstream genes. β-Catenin activator LiCl could significantly eliminate the effect of si-SHIP2 on BC cells. Moreover, overexpression of SHIP2 increased tumor volume and weight in rat model, and Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor ICG001 reversed the promoting effect of SHIP2 on tumorigenesis. Conclusion Upregulation of SHIP2 could increase the migration, invasion, proliferation, and decrease apoptosis in BC cells. Moreover, SHIP2 participated in the progression of BC via activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

Abstract
Individuals with diverticula or outpouchings of the colonic mucosa and submucosa through the colonic wall have diverticulosis, which is usually asymptomatic. In 10-25% of individuals, the diverticula become inflamed, resulting in diverticulitis. Very little is known about the pathophysiology or gene regulatory pathways involved in the development of diverticulitis. To identify these pathways, we deep sequenced RNAs isolated from full-thickness sections of sigmoid colon from diverticulitis patients and control individuals. Specifically for diverticulitis cases, we analyzed tissue adjacent to areas affected by chronic disease. Since the tissue was collected during elective sigmoid resection, the disease was in a quiescent state. A comparison of differentially expressed genes found that gene ontology (GO) pathways associated with the immune response were upregulated in diverticulitis patients compared with nondiverticulosis controls. Next, weighted gene coexpression network analysis was performed to identify the interaction among coexpressed genes. This analysis revealed RASAL3, SASH3, PTPRC, and INPP5D as hub genes within the brown module eigengene, which highly correlated (r = 0.67, P = 0.0004) with diverticulitis. Additionally, we identified elevated expression of downstream interacting genes. In summary, transcripts associated with the immune response were upregulated in adjacent tissue from the sigmoid colons of chronic, recurrent diverticulitis patients. Further elucidating the genetic or epigenetic mechanisms associated with these alterations can help identify those at risk for chronic disease and may assist in clinical decision management.NEW & NOTEWORTHY By using an unbiased approach to analyze transcripts expressed in unaffected colonic tissues adjacent to those affected by chronic diverticulitis, our study implicates that a defect in the immune response may be involved in the development of the disease. This finding expands on the current data that suggest the pathophysiology of diverticulitis is mediated by dietary, age, and obesity-related factors. Further characterizing the immunologic differences in diverticulitis may better inform clinical decision-making.

Abstract
T lymphocytes play a critical role in host defense in all anatomical sites including mucosal surfaces. This not only includes the effector arm of the immune system, but also regulation of immune responses in order to prevent autoimmunity. Genetic targeting of PI3K isoforms suggests that generation of PI(3,4,5)P3 by PI3K plays a critical role in promoting effector T cell responses. Consequently, the 5'- and 3'-inositol poly-phosphatases SHIP1, SHIP2, and phosphatase and tensin homolog capable of targeting PI(3,4,5)P3 are potential genetic determinants of T cell effector functions in vivo. In addition, the 5'-inositol poly-phosphatases SHIP1 and 2 can shunt PI(3,4,5)P3 to the rare but potent signaling phosphoinositide species PI(3,4)P2 and thus these SHIP1/2, and the INPP4A/B enzymes that deplete PI(3,4)P2 may have precise roles in T cell biology to amplify or inhibit effectors of PI3K signaling that are selectively recruited to and activated by PI(3,4)P2. Here we summarize recent genetic and chemical evidence that indicates the inositol poly-phosphatases have important roles in both the effector and regulatory functions of the T cell compartment. In addition, we will discuss future genetic studies that might be undertaken to further elaborate the role of these enzymes in T cell biology as well as potential pharmaceutical manipulation of these enzymes for therapeutic purposes in disease settings where T cell function is a key in vivo target.

Abstract
MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is an oncogenic microRNA that regulates several pathways involved in cell division and immunoregulation. It is overexpressed in numerous cancers, is often correlated with poor prognosis, and is thus a key target for future therapies. In this work we show that overexpression of miR-155 in lymphoid tissues results in disseminated lymphoma characterized by a clonal, transplantable pre-B-cell population of neoplastic lymphocytes. Withdrawal of miR-155 in mice with established disease results in rapid regression of lymphadenopathy, in part because of apoptosis of the malignant lymphocytes, demonstrating that these tumors are dependent on miR-155 expression. We show that systemic delivery of antisense peptide nucleic acids encapsulated in unique polymer nanoparticles inhibits miR-155 and slows the growth of these "addicted" pre-B-cell tumors in vivo, suggesting a promising therapeutic option for lymphoma/leukemia.

Abstract
Peginesatide is a synthetic, PEGylated, peptide-based erythropoiesis-stimulating agent that is designed and engineered to stimulate specifically the erythropoietin receptor dimer that governs erythropoiesis. Peginesatide has a unique structure that consists of a synthetic peptide dimer (with no sequence similarity to erythropoietin) conjugated to a 40-kDa PEG moiety. Peginesatide is being developed for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease in dialysis patients. To compare signaling effects of peginesatide to recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO), dose-dependent effects on protein phosphorylation and gene expression were evaluated using phosphoproteomics, quantitative signal transduction analyses, and gene profiling. After stimulation with peginesatide or rHuEPO, cell lysates were prepared from UT-7/EPO cells. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and MesoScale arrays were used to quantify phosphorylation events. Transcriptional changes were analyzed using microarrays and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Peginesatide and rHuEPO were found to regulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of an essentially equivalent set of protein substrates, and modulate the expression of a similar set of target genes. Consistent with their roles in stimulating erythropoiesis, peginesatide and rHuEPO regulate similar cellular pathways.

Abstract
PI3K cascade is a central signaling pathway regulating cell proliferation, growth, differentiation, and survival. Tight regulation of the PI3K signaling pathway is necessary to avoid aberrant cell proliferation and cancer development. Together with SHIP-1, the inositol phosphatases PTEN and SHIP-2 are the gatekeepers of this pathway. In this review, we will focus on SHIP-1 functions. Negative regulation of immune cell activation by SHIP-1 is well characterized. Besides its catalytic activity, SHIP-1 also displays non-enzymatic activity playing role in several immune pathways. Indeed, SHIP-1 exhibits several domains that mediate protein-protein interaction. This review emphasizes the negative regulation of immune cell activation by SHIP-1 that is mediated by its protein-protein interaction.

Abstract
The microbial capsular polysaccharide glucuronoxylomannan (GXM) from the opportunistic fungus Cryptoccocus neoformans is able to alter the innate and adaptive immune response through multi-faceted mechanisms of immunosuppression. The ability of GXM to dampen the immune response involves the induction of T cell apoptosis, which is dependent on GXM-induced up-regulation of Fas ligand (FasL) on antigen-presenting cells. In this study we elucidate the mechanism exploited by GXM to induce up-regulation of FasL. We demonstrate that (i) the activation of FasL is dependent on GXM interaction with FcgammaRIIB (FcγRIIB); (ii) GXM induces activation of c-Jun NH(2) -terminal kinase (JNK) and p38 signal transduction pathways via FcγRIIB; (iii) this leads to downstream activation of c-Jun; (iv) JNK and p38 are simultaneously, but independently, activated; (v) FasL up-regulation occurs via JNK and p38 activation; and (vi) apoptosis occurs via FcγRIIB engagement with consequent JNK and p38 activation. Our results highlight a fast track to FasL up-regulation via FcγRIIB, and assign to this receptor a novel anti-inflammatory role that also accounts for induced peripheral tolerance. These results contribute to our understanding of the mechanism of immunosuppression that accompanies cryptococcosis.

Abstract
Inadequate proliferation and/or differentiation of preadipocytes may lead to adipose tissue dysfunction characterized by hypertrophied, insulin-resistant adipocytes. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) may alter adipose tissue function by promoting proliferation of preadipocytes. Two principal signaling pathways that regulate proliferation are PI3K/PI(3,4,5)P3/Akt and Shc/Ras/ERK1/2. SH2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 2 (SHIP2) dephosphorylates PI(3,4,5)P3, and also binds to Shc. Our goal was to determine how SHIP2 affects these PDGF signaling routes. To assess the role of the 5-phosphatase domain, we expressed wild-type or catalytically inactive dominant-negative SHIP2 (P686A-D690A-R691A; PDR/AAA) in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. Surprisingly, SHIP2 PDR/AAA inhibited proliferation more potently than wild-type SHIP2. After three days of proliferation, phospho-Akt, phospho-ERK1/2, and PDGF receptor (PDGFR) levels were reduced in PDR/AAA-expressing preadipocytes. SHIP2 PDR/AAA interference with PDGFR signaling was demonstrated using imatinib, an inhibitor of PDGFR tyrosine kinase. The anti-proliferative effect of imatinib observed in control preadipocytes was not significant in SHIP2 PDR/AAA-expressing preadipocytes, indicating a pre-existing impairment of PDGFR-dependent mitogenesis in these cells. The inhibition of PDGF-activated mitogenic pathways by SHIP2 PDR/AAA was consistent with a decrease in PDGFR phosphorylation caused by a drop in receptor levels in SHIP2 PDR/AAA-expressing cells. SHIP2 PDR/AAA promoted ubiquitination of the PDGFR and its degradation via the lysosomal pathway independently of the association between the E3 ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl and PDGFR. Overall, our findings indicate that SHIP2 PDR/AAA reduces preadipocyte proliferation by attenuating PDGFR signaling.

Abstract
SHIP1 [SH2 (Src homology 2)-containing inositol phosphatase-1], an inositol 5-phosphatase expressed in haemopoietic cells, acts by hydrolysing the 5-phosphates from PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) and Ins(1,3,4,5)P(4), thereby negatively regulating the PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) pathway. SHIP1 plays a major role in inhibiting proliferation of myeloid cells. As a result, SHIP1(-/-) mice have an increased number of neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages due to enhanced survival and proliferation of their progenitors. Although SHIP1 contributes to PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3) metabolism in T-lymphocytes, its exact role in this cell type is much less explored. Jurkat cells have recently emerged as an interesting tool to study SHIP1 function in T-cells because they do not express SHIP1 at the protein level, thereby allowing reintroduction experiments in a relatively easy-to-use system. Data obtained from SHIP1 reintroduction have revealed that SHIP1 not only acts as a negative player in T-cell lines proliferation, but also regulates critical pathways, such as NF-kappaB (nuclear factor kappaB) activation, and also appears to remarkably inhibit T-cell apoptosis. On the other hand, experiments using primary T-cells from SHIP1(-/-) mice have highlighted a new role for SHIP1 in regulatory T-cell development, but also emphasize that this protein is not required for T-cell proliferation. In support of these results, SHIP1(-/-) mice are lymphopenic, suggesting that SHIP1 function in T-cells differs from its role in the myeloid lineage.

Abstract
Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) is an important prosurvival transcription factor activated in response to a large array of external stimuli, including reactive oxygen species (ROS). Previous works have shown that NF-kappaB activation by ROS involved tyrosine phosphorylation of the inhibitor IkappaBalpha through an IkappaB kinase (IKK)-independent mechanism. In the present work, we investigated with more details NF-kappaB redox regulation in human leukemic cells. By using different cell lines (CEM, Jurkat and the subclone Jurkat JR), we clearly showed that NF-kappaB activation by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is cell-type dependent: it activates NF-kappaB through tyrosine phosphorylation of IkappaBalpha in Jurkat cells, whereas it induces an IKK-mediated IkappaBalpha phosphorylation on S32 and 36 in CEM and Jurkat JR cells. We showed that this H2O2-induced IKK activation in CEM and Jurkat JR cells is mediated by SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase 1 (SHIP-1), a lipid phosphatase that is absent in Jurkat cells. Indeed, the complementation of SHIP-1 in Jurkat cells made them shift to an IKK-dependent mechanism upon oxidative stress stimulation. We also showed that Jurkat cells expressing SHIP-1 are more resistant to H2O2-induced apoptosis than the parental cells, suggesting that SHIP-1 has an important role in leukemic cell responses to ROS in terms of signal transduction pathways and apoptosis resistance, which can be of interest in improving ROS-mediated chemotherapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reversible interactions between the components of cellular signaling pathways allow for the formation and dissociation of multimolecular complexes with spatial and temporal resolution and, thus, are an important means of integrating multiple signals into a coordinated cellular response. Several mechanisms that underlie these interactions have been identified, including the recognition of specific docking sites, termed a D-domain and FXFP motif, on proteins that bind mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs). We recently found that phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C-gamma1 (PLC-gamma1) directly binds to extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2), a MAPK, via a D-domain-dependent mechanism. In addition, we identified D-domain sequences in several other PLC isozymes. In the present studies we sought to determine whether MAPK docking sequences could be recognized in other enzymes that metabolize phosphatidylinositols (PIs), as well as in enzymes that metabolize inositol phosphates (IPs). RESULTS We found that several, but not all, of these enzymes contain identifiable D-domain sequences. Further, we found a high degree of conservation of these sequences and their location in human and mouse proteins; notable exceptions were PI 3-kinase C2-gamma, PI 4-kinase type IIbeta, and inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphatase. CONCLUSION The results indicate that there may be extensive crosstalk between MAPK signaling and signaling pathways that are regulated by cellular levels of PIs or IPs.

Abstract
Stem cell factor (SCF) has a potent synergistic effect during megakaryopoiesis when administered in combination with the major megakaryocytic cytokine, thrombopoietin (TPO). In this study we analyzed the underlying mechanisms with regard to STAT5 activity. TPO stimulation of MO7e cells resulted in STAT5 transactivation, which could be enhanced 1.6-fold by costimulation with SCF, whereas SCF alone did not induce STAT5 transcriptional activity. This costimulatory effect of SCF was reflected in an increase in TPO-induced STAT5 DNA binding and increased and prolonged STAT5 tyrosine phosphorylation in both MO7e cells and primary human megakaryocyte progenitors. In contrast, serine phosphorylation of STAT5 was constitutive and associated with an inhibitory effect on STAT5 transactivation. Signal transduction pathways that might synergize in TPO-mediated STAT5 transactivation were analyzed using specific pharmacological inhibitors and indicated an essential role for Janus-activated kinase 2 (JAK2) and a partial role for Src-family kinases. Costimulation with SCF was found to increase and prolong tyrosine phosphorylation of JAK2 and the TPO receptor c-mpl. In addition, the Src kinase inhibitor SU6656 partially downregulated the additional effect of SCF costimulation on STAT5 tyrosine phosphorylation. SCF-induced enhancement of JAK2 phosphorylation was not affected by inhibition of Src kinase, suggesting that both JAK2 and Src kinase mediate STAT5 tyrosine phosphorylation. Synergistic activation of JAK2 and Src kinase may thus contribute to the enhanced STAT5 signaling in the presence of TPO and SCF.

Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase 1 (SHIP1) plays important roles in negatively regulating the activation of immune cells primarily via the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K) pathway by catalyzing the PI-3K product PtdIns-3,4,5P3 (phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-triphosphate) into PtdIns-3,4P2. However, the role of SHIP1 in Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated lipopolysaccharide (LPS) response remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that SHIP1 negatively regulates LPS-induced inflammatory response via both phosphatase activity-dependent and -independent mechanisms in macrophages. SHIP1 becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and up-regulated upon LPS stimulation in RAW264.7 macrophages. SHIP1-specific RNA-interfering and SHIP1 overexpression experiments demonstrate that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) production by negatively regulating the LPS-induced combination between TLR4 and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88); activation of Ras (p21(ras) protein), PI-3K, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38, and c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK); and degradation of IkappaB-alpha. SHIP1 also significantly inhibits LPS-induced mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in TLR4-reconstitited COS7 cells. Although SHIP1-mediated inhibition of PI-3K is dependent on its phosphatase activity, phosphatase activity-disrupted mutant SHIP1 remains inhibitory to LPS-induced TNF-alpha production. Neither disrupting phosphatase activity nor using the PI-3K pathway inhibitor LY294002 or wortmannin could significantly block SHIP1-mediated inhibition of LPS-induced ERK1/2, p38, and JNK activation and TNF-alpha production, demonstrating that SHIP1 inhibits LPS-induced activation of MAPKs and cytokine production primarily by a phosphatase activity- and PI-3K-independent mechanism.

Abstract
The inositol 5-phosphatase SHIP (SHIP-1) is a negative regulator of signal transduction in hematopoietic cells and targeted disruption of SHIP in mice leads to a myeloproliferative disorder. We analyzed the effects of SHIP on the human leukemia cell line Jurkat in which expression of endogenous SHIP protein is not detectable. Restoration of SHIP expression in Jurkat cells with an inducible expression system caused a 69% reduction of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3)) and a 65% reduction of Akt kinase activity, which was associated with reduced phosphorylation of glycogen synthase kinase 3beta (GSK-3beta) (Ser-9) without changing the phosphorylation of Bad (Ser-136), FKHR (Ser-256) or MAPK (Thr-202/Tyr-204). SHIP-expressing Jurkat cells showed an increased transit time through the G1 phase of the cell cycle, but SHIP did not cause a complete cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. Extension of the G1 phase was associated with an increased stability of the cell cycle inhibitor p27(Kip1) and reduced phosphorylation of the retinoblastoma protein Rb at serine residue 780. Our data indicate that restoration of SHIP activity in a human leukemia cell line, which has lost expression of endogenous SHIP, downregulates constitutively activated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt/GSK-3beta signaling and leads to an increased transit time through the G1 phase of the cell cycle.

Abstract
The phosphatidylinositol (PI)-3 kinase (PI3K) pathway plays a central role in regulating many biological processes via the generation of the key second messenger PI-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI-3,4,5-P3). This membrane-associated phospholipid, which is rapidly, albeit transiently, synthesized from PI-4,5-P2 by PI3K in response to a diverse array of extracellular stimuli, attracts pleckstrin homology (PH) domain-containing proteins to membranes to mediate its many effects. To ensure that the activation of this pathway is appropriately suppressed/terminated, the ubiquitously expressed tumor suppressor PTEN hydrolyzes PI-3,4,5-P3 back to PI-4,5-P2 while the 145-kDa hemopoietic-restricted SH2-containing inositol 5'- phosphatase, SHIP (also known as SHIP1), the 104-kDa stem cell-restricted SHIP (sSHIP) and the more widely expressed 150-kDa SHIP2 hydrolyze PI-3,4,5-P3 to PI-3,4-P2. In this review we will concentrate on the properties of the three SHIPs, with special emphasis being placed on the role that SHIP plays in cytokine-induced signaling.

Abstract
SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) is an important negative regulator of cytokine and immune receptor signaling. SHIP-deficient mice have a number of hematopoietic perturbations, including enhanced cytokine responsiveness. Because cytokines play an important role in the maintenance/expansion of the primitive hematopoietic cell pool, we investigated the possibility that SHIP also regulates the properties of cells in these compartments. Primitive hematopoietic cells were evaluated in SHIP-deficient mice and wild-type littermate controls using the colony-forming unit-spleen (CFU-S) and competitive repopulating unit (CRU) assays for multipotent progenitors and long-term lympho-myeloid repopulating cells, respectively. Absence of SHIP was found to affect homeostasis of CFU-S and CRU compartments. Numbers of primitive cells were increased in extramedullary sites such as the spleen of SHIP-deficient mice, although total body numbers were not significantly changed. In vivo cell cycle status of the CRU compartment was further evaluated using 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). SHIP-deficient CRUs were more sensitive to 5-FU killing, indicating a higher proliferative cell fraction. More strikingly, SHIP was found to regulate the ability of primitive cells to regenerate in vivo, as CRU recovery was approximately 30-fold lower in mice that received transplants of SHIP-deficient cells compared with controls. These results support a major role for SHIP in modulating pathways important in homeostasis and regeneration of hematopoietic stem cells, and emphasize the importance of negative cytokine regulation at the earliest stages of hematopoiesis.

Abstract
The Raf/MEK/ERK kinase cascade plays a critical role in transducing growth signals from activated cell surface receptors. Using DeltaMEK1:ER, a conditionally active form of MEK1 which responds to either beta-estradiol or the estrogen receptor antagonist 4 hydroxy-tamoxifen (4HT), we previously documented the ability of this dual specificity protein kinase to abrogate the cytokine-dependency of human (TF-1) and murine (FDC-P1 and FL5.12) hematopoietic cells lines. Here we demonstrate the ability of DeltaMEK1:ER to activate the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/p70 ribosomal S6 kinase (p70(S6K)) pathway and the importance of this pathway in MEK1-mediated prevention of apoptosis. MEK1-responsive cells can be maintained long term in the presence of beta-estradiol, 4HT or IL-3. Removal of hormone led to the rapid cessation of cell proliferation and the induction of apoptosis in a manner similar to cytokine deprivation of the parental cells. Stimulation of DeltaMEK1:ER by 4HT resulted in ERK, PI3K, Akt and p70(S6K) activation. Treatment with PI3K, Akt and p70(S6K) inhibitors prevented MEK-responsive growth. Furthermore, the apoptotic effects of PI3K/Akt/p70(S6K) inhibitors could be enhanced by cotreatment with MEK inhibitors. Use of a PI3K inhibitor and a constitutively active form of Akt, [DeltaAkt(Myr(+))], indicated that activation of PI3K was necessary for MEK1-responsive growth and survival as activation of Akt alone was unable to compensate for the loss of PI3K activity. Cells transduced by MEK or MEK+Akt displayed different sensitivities to signal transduction inhibitors, which targeted these pathways. These results indicate a requirement for the activation of the PI3K pathway during MEK-mediated transformation of certain hematopoietic cells. These experiments provide important clues as to why the identification of mutant signaling pathways may be the Achilles heel of leukemic cell growth. Leukemia treatment targeting multiple signal transduction pathways may be more efficacious than therapy aimed at inhibiting a single pathway.

Abstract
Binding of erythropoietin (EPO) to its receptor (EPOR) on erythroid cells induces the activation of numerous signal transduction pathways, including the mitogen-activated protein kinase Jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK). In an effort to understand the regulation of EPO-induced proliferation and JNK activation, we have examined the role of potential autocrine factors in the proliferation of the murine erythroleukemia cell line HCD57. We report here that treatment of these cells with EPO induced the expression and secretion of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha). EPO-dependent proliferation was reduced by the addition of neutralizing antibodies to TNF-alpha, and exogenously added TNF-alpha induced proliferation of HCD57 cells. EPO also could induce TNF-alpha expression in BAF3 and DA3 myeloid cells ectopically expressing EPOR. Addition of TNF-alpha activated JNK in HCD57 cells, and the activity of JNK was partially inhibited by addition of a TNF-alpha neutralizing antibody. Primary human and murine erythroid progenitors expressed TNF-alpha in either an EPO-dependent or constitutive manner. However, TNF-alpha had an inhibitory effect on both immature primary human and murine cells, suggestive that the proliferative effects of TNF-alpha may be limited to erythroleukemic cells. This study suggests a novel role for autocrine TNF-alpha expression in the proliferation of erythroleukemia cells that is distinct from the effect of TNF-alpha in normal erythropoiesis.
