Abstract
Activation of cytokine receptor-associated Janus kinases (JAKs) mediates most, if not all, of the cellular responses to peptide hormones and cytokines. Consequently, JAKs play a paramount role in homeostasis and immunity. Members of this family of tyrosine kinases control the cytokine/hormone-induced alterations in cell gene expression program. This function is largely mediated through an ability to signal toward activation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription proteins (STAT), as well as toward some other pathways. Importantly, JAKs are also instrumental in tightly controlling the expression of associated cytokine and hormone receptors, and, accordingly, in regulating the cell sensitivity to these cytokines and hormones. This review highlights the enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms of this regulation and discusses the importance of the ambidextrous nature of JAK as a key signaling node that integrates the combining functions of forward signaling and eliminative signaling. Attention to the latter aspect of JAK function may contribute to emancipating our approaches to the pharmacological modulation of JAKs.

Cytosolic lysine residues enhance anterograde transport and activation of the erythropoietin receptor. Biochem J 2011; 435:509-18.

Abstract
Lysine residues are key residues in many cellular processes, in part due to their ability to accept a wide variety of post-translational modifications. In the present study, we identify the EPO-R [EPO (erythropoietin) receptor] cytosolic lysine residues as enhancers of receptor function. EPO-R drives survival, proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells via binding of its ligand EPO. We mutated the five EPO-R cytosolic lysine residues to arginine residues (5KR EPO-R), eliminating putative lysine-dependent modifications. Overexpressed 5KR EPO-R displayed impaired ubiquitination and improved stability compared with wt (wild-type) EPO-R. Unexpectedly, fusion proteins consisting of VSVGtsO45 (vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein temperature-sensitive folding mutant) with wt or 5KR EPO-R cytosolic domains demonstrated delayed glycan maturation kinetics upon substitution of the lysine residues. Moreover, VSVG-wt EPO-R, but not VSVG-5KR EPO-R, displayed endoplasmic reticulum-associated ubiquitination. Despite similar cell-surface EPO-binding levels of both receptors and the lack of EPO-induced ubiquitination by 5KR EPO-R, the lysine-less mutant produced weaker receptor activation and signalling than the wt receptor. We thus propose that EPO-R cytosolic lysine residues enhance receptor function, most probably through ubiquitination and/or other post-translational modifications.

Involvement of phosphatases in proliferation, maturation, and hemoglobinization of developing erythroid cells. JOURNAL OF SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION 2011; 2011:860985.

Abstract
Production of RBCs is triggered by the action of erythropoietin (Epo) through its binding to surface receptors
(Epo-R) on erythroid precursors in the bone marrow. The intensity and the duration of the Epo signal are regulated by several factors,
including the balance between the activities of kinesase and phosphatases. The Epo signal determines the proliferation and maturation
of the precursors into hemoglobin (Hb)-containing RBCs. The activity of various protein tyrosine phosphatases, including those involved in the
Epo pathway, can be inhibited by sodium orthovanadate (Na3VO4, vanadate). Adding vanadate to cultured erythroid precursors of normal
donors and patients with β-thalassemia enhanced cell proliferation and arrested maturation. This was associated with an increased production
of fetal hemoglobin (HbF). Increased HbF in patients with β-hemoglobinopathies (β-thalassemia and sickle cell disease) ameliorates the clinical
symptoms of the disease. These results raise the possibility that specific and nontoxic inhibitors of phosphatases may be considered as a
therapeutic modality for elevating HbF in patients with β-hemoglobinopathies
as well as for intensifying the Epo response in other forms of anemia.

Abstract
The continuous emergence of new diseases and the development of drug-resistant cancers necessitate the development of new drugs with novel mechanisms of action. The richest marine source of natural anti-cancer products has been soft-bodied organisms that lack physical defenses against their predators, and hence rely on chemical defense mechanisms using cytotoxic secondary metabolites. Bio-guided (brine shrimp test) separation of CHCl(3)-CH(3)OH (1:1) extract from the Madagascar Fascaplysinopsis sp. sponge provided several new compounds. Here we focused on the biological activity of a panel of novel natural compounds, salarins A-J. Of these, salarin C was the most potent inhibitor of proliferation, as demonstrated on the K562 leukemia cell line. Salarin C-treated K562 cells underwent apoptotic death as monitored by cell-cycle analysis, annexin V/propidium iodide staining, cleavage of poly-ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) and caspase 3, and caspase 9 levels. The experimental approach described herein is an essential step towards identifying the cellular pathway(s) affected by salarin C and producing potent synthetic derivatives of salarin C with potential future uses as basic research tools and/or drugs and drug leads.

Insertion of an NPVY sequence into the cytosolic domain of the erythropoietin receptor selectively affects erythropoietin-mediated signalling and function. Biochem J 2010; 427:305-12.

Abstract
EPO (erythropoietin), the major hormone regulating erythropoiesis, functions via activation of its cell-surface receptor (EPO-R) present on erythroid progenitor cells. One of the most striking properties of EPO-R is its low expression on the cell surface, as opposed to its high intracellular levels. The low cell-surface expression of EPO-R may thus limit the efficacy of EPO that is routinely used to treat primary and secondary anaemia. In a recent study [Nahari, Barzilay, Hirschberg and Neumann (2008) Biochem. J. 410, 409–416] we have shown that insertion of an NPVY sequence into the intracellular domain of EPO-R increases its cell-surface expression. In the present study we demonstrate that this NPVY EPO-R insert has a selective effect on EPO-mediated downstream signalling in Ba/F3 cells expressing this receptor (NPVY-EPO-R). This is monitored by increased phosphorylation of the NPVY-EPO-R (on Tyr479), Akt, JAK2 (Janus kinase 2) and ERK1/2 (extracellular-signal-regulated kinase 1/2), but not STAT5 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 5), as compared with cells expressing wild-type EPO-R. This enhanced signalling is reflected in augmented proliferation at low EPO levels (0.05 units/ml) and protection against etoposide-induced apoptosis. Increased cell-surface levels of NPVY-EPO-R are most probably not sufficient to mediate these effects as the A234E-EPO-R mutant that is expressed at high cell-surface levels does not confer an augmented response to EPO. Taken together, we demonstrate that insertion of an NPVY sequence into the cytosolic domain of the EPO-R confers not only improved maturation, but also selectively affects EPO-mediated signalling resulting in an improved responsiveness to EPO reflected in cell proliferation and protection against apoptosis.

Abstract
Triggering the CD95/APO-1/Fas receptor by CD95-L induces the assembly of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC), which permits initiator caspases activation and progression of a signaling cascade that culminates in cellular apoptosis. Despite the CD95 receptor does not exhibit any kinase activity by itself, phosphorylation/dephosphorylation events seem important to regulate many aspects of CD95-mediated apoptosis. Here, we try to highlight particularly the importance of protein phosphatases in the modulation of the CD95 system.

Abstract
Activation of the EPO-R [EPO (erythropoietin) receptor] by its ligand EPO promotes erythropoiesis. Low cell surface EPO-R levels are traditionally attributed to inefficient folding mediated by the receptor extracellular domain. In the present study, we addressed the role of the EPO-R intracellular domain in exit from the ER (endoplasmic reticulum) and surface expression. A fusion protein between the thermo-reversible folding mutant of VSVG (vesicular-stomatitis-virus glycoprotein) (VSVGtsO45) and the EPO-R cytosolic domain [VSVG-WT (wild-type)] displayed delayed intracellular trafficking as compared with the parental VSVGtsO45, suggesting that the EPO-R cytosolic domain can hamper ER exit. Although NPXY-based motifs were originally associated with clathrin binding and endocytosis, they may also function in other contexts of the secretory pathway. A fusion protein between VSVGtsO45 and the cytosolic portion of EPO-R containing an NPVY insert (VSVG-NPVY) displayed enhanced glycan maturation and surface expression as compared with VSVG-WT. Notably, the NPVY insert also conferred improved maturation and augmented cell surface EPO-R. Our findings highlight three major concepts: (i) the EPO-R cytosolic domain is involved in ER exit of the receptor. (ii) Sequence motifs that participate in endocytosis can also modulate transport along the secretory pathway. (iii) VSVG-fusion proteins may be employed to screen for intracellular sequences that regulate transport.

Abstract
Erythropoietic functions of erythropoietin (EPO) are mediated by its receptor (EPO-R), which is present on the cell surface of erythroid progenitors and induced by hypoxia. We focused on EPO-R from Spalax galili (sEPO-R), one of the four Israeli species of the subterranean blind mole rat, Spalax ehrenbergi superspecies, as a special natural animal model of high tolerance to hypoxia. Led by the intriguing observation that most of the mouse EPO-R (mEPO-R) is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), we hypothesized that sEPO-R is expressed at higher levels on the cell surface, thus maximizing the response to elevated EPO, which has been reported in this species. Indeed, we found increased cell-surface levels of sEPO-R as compared with mEPO-R by using flow cytometry analysis of BOSC cells transiently expressing HA-tagged EPO-Rs (full length or truncated). We then postulated that unique extracellular sEPO-R sequence features contribute to its processing and cell-surface expression. To map these domains of the sEPO-R that augment receptor maturation, we generated EPO-R derivatives in which parts of the extracellular region of mEPO-R were replaced with the corresponding fragments of sEPO-R. We found that an extracellular portion of sEPO-R, harboring the N-glycosylation site, conferred enhanced maturation and increased transport to the cell surface of the respective chimeric receptor. Taken together, we demonstrate higher surface expression of sEPO-R, attributed at least in part to increased ER exit, mediated by an extracellular region of this receptor. We speculate that these sEPO-R sequence features play a role in the adaptation of Spalax to extreme hypoxia.

Abstract
Current knowledge about the effects of vanadium compounds on erythropoiesis is still reduced and even contradictory. The aim of this work was to evaluate the in vivo effects of a single dose of sodium orthovanadate (OV, 33 mg/kg i.p.) on CF-1 mice in a time course study (0-8 days). Murine erythropoiesis was assessed through a combinatory of experimental approaches. Classical peripheral and bone marrow (BM) hematological parameters were determined. Erythroid maturation in blood stream and hemopoietic tissues (59Fe uptake assays), BM erythroid progenitor frequency (clonogenic assays) and erythroid crucial protein expressions for commitment and survival: GATA-1, erythropoietin receptor (Epo-R) and Bcl-xL (immunoblottings) were evaluated. Neither BM cellularities nor BM viabilities changed noticeably during the study. Peripheral reticulocytes showed a biphasic increment on days 2 and 8 post-OV. hematocrits enhanced transiently between days 2 and 4. 59Fe uptake percentages enhanced in peripheral blood nearly two-fold over control values between 4 and 8 days (p<0.01) without changes in BM and spleen. Additionally, mature erythroid BM compartments: polychromatophilic erythroblasts and orthochromatic normoblasts increased by the eighth day. BFU-E colonies remained near basal values during the whole experience, whilst CFU-E colonies raised 60% over control at 8 days post-OV (p<0.05). GATA-1 and Epo-R were significantly over-expressed from the third until the end of the experimental protocol (p<0.01). Surprisingly, Bcl-xL showed a constitutive expression pattern without changes during the experience. Experimental data let us suggest that OV does not to cause bone marrow cytotoxicity and that it accelerates maturation of BM committed erythroid precursors. Moreover, there are significant correlations among erythroid-related protein expressions: GATA-1 and Epo-R and the frequency of CFU-E. In addition, Bcl-xL expression invariance during the time course study would indicate that the stimulatory effect of OV treatment on erythropoiesis was mainly exerted on the maturation of red cell precursors rather than on the antiapoptosis of erythroid terminal progenitors.

Abstract
The Janus kinases are considered to be cytoplasmic kinases that constitutively associate with the cytoplasmic region of cytokine receptors, and the Janus kinases (Jaks) are crucial for cytokine signal transduction. We investigated Jak1 localization using subcellular fractionation techniques and fluorescence microscopy (immunofluorescence and yellow fluorescent protein-tagged Jaks). In the different experimental approaches we found Jak1 (as well as Jak2 and Tyk2) predominantly located at membranes. In contrast to previous reports we did not observe Jak proteins in significant amounts within the nucleus or in the cytoplasm. The cytoplasmic localization observed for the Jak1 mutant L80A/Y81A, which is unable to associate with cytokine receptors, indicates that Jak1 does not have a strong intrinsic membrane binding potential and that only receptor binding is crucial for the membrane recruitment. Finally we show that Jak1 remains a membrane-localized protein after cytokine stimulation. These data strongly support the hypothesis that cytokine receptor.Janus kinase complexes can be regarded as receptor tyrosine kinases.

Abstract
Circulating cytokines bind to specific receptors on the cell outer surface to evoke responses inside the cell. Binding of cytokines alters the association between receptor molecules that often cross the membrane only once in a single alpha-helical segment. As a consequence, association of protein domains on the inside of the membrane are also altered. Increasing evidence suggests that an initial "off-state" of associated receptors is perturbed, and brought to an activated state that leads to intracellular signaling and eventually effects a change in DNA transcription. The initial detection event that transduces the change in receptor association is sensitive to both proximity and orientation of the receptors, and probably also to the time that the activated state or receptor association is maintained. Ultimately, a cascade of phosphorylation events is triggered. The initial kinases are sometimes part of the intracellular domains of the receptors. The kinases can also be separate proteins that may be pre-associated with intracellular domains of the receptors, or can be recruited after the intracellular association of the activated receptors. We focus here on each of the cases for which structures of the activated cytokine-receptor complexes are known, in a search for underlying mechanisms. The variations in modes of association, stoichiometries of receptors and cytokines, and orientations before and after activation of these receptors are almost as great as the number of complexes themselves. The principles uncovered nevertheless illustrate the basis for high specificity and fidelity in cytokine-mediated signaling.

Abstract
Erythropoietin (EPO) is the principal hormone regulating the proliferation of erythroid precursors and their differentiation into erythrocytes. Binding of ligand to the cell-surface EPO-R (EPO receptor) induces dimerization and JAK2 (Janus kinase 2)-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of the receptor. Less than 1% of the EPO-Rs are displayed on the cell surface; most of the receptor molecules are retained in intracellular compartments, including the ER (endoplasmic reticulum). Using pervanadate (PV) as a potent tool to inhibit cellular PTPs (protein tyrosine phosphatases), we demonstrated previously the accumulation of mature (endoglycosidase H-resistant) tyrosine-phosphorylated EPO-R [Cohen, Altaratz, Zick, Klingmuller and Neumann (1997) Biochem. J. 327, 391-397]. In the present study, we investigated the participation of the ER-associated PTP1B in the dephosphorylation of intracellular EPO-R. We demonstrate tyrosine phosphorylation of EPO-R in BOSC-23T cells co-expressing EPO-R and the 'substrate-trapping' mutant form of PTP1B, PTP1B D181A (referred to as PTP1BD). In vivo interaction between EPO-R and PTP1B suggested that PTP1B dephosphorylates the EPO-R intracellularly. Endoglycosidase H resistance of tyrosine-phosphorylated EPO-R in cells expressing PTP1BD suggested that mature EPO-R is dephosphorylated by PTP1B. Stimulation with EPO of cells co-expressing EPO-R and either PTP1BD or PTP1B resulted in an increase or decrease respectively in phosphotyrosine EPO-R. We thus suggest that PTP1B dephosphorylates EPO-stimulated EPO-R and participates in the down-regulation cascade of EPO-mediated signal transduction.

Abstract
Post-translational modifications provide sensitive and flexible mechanisms to dynamically modulate protein function in response to specific signalling inputs. In the case of transcription factors, changes in phosphorylation state can influence protein stability, conformation, subcellular localization, cofactor interactions, transactivation potential and transcriptional output. Here we show that the evolutionarily conserved transcription factor Eyes absent (Eya) belongs to the phosphatase subgroup of the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily, and propose a function for it as a non-thiol-based protein tyrosine phosphatase. Experiments performed in cultured Drosophila cells and in vitro indicate that Eyes absent has intrinsic protein tyrosine phosphatase activity and can autocatalytically dephosphorylate itself. Confirming the biological significance of this function, mutations that disrupt the phosphatase active site severely compromise the ability of Eyes absent to promote eye specification and development in Drosophila. Given the functional importance of phosphorylation-dependent modulation of transcription factor activity, this evidence for a nuclear transcriptional coactivator with intrinsic phosphatase activity suggests an unanticipated method of fine-tuning transcriptional regulation.

Abstract
Geldanamycin, an ansamycin antibiotic that specifically inhibits heat-shock protein-90 (HSP90) and its endoplasmic reticulum homologue, glucose-regulated protein-94 (GRP94), accelerates the degradation of selected cellular proteins. We showed previously that geldanamycin inhibits maturation and transport of the epidermal growth factor receptor in addition to accelerating its degradation (Supino-Rosin, L., Yoshimura, A., Yarden, Y., Elazar, Z., and Neumann, D. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 21850-21855). Here we demonstrate that the additional activities of geldanamycin on intracellular transport and protein maturation are related to its supply source. By combining chemical separation of Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. geldanus extracts and biological screens, we show that the geldanamycin-associated effects on intracellular transport and protein maturation are not mediated by geldanamycin itself but are due to the presence of an additional component(s). Chromatography of S. hygroscopicus var. geldanus extracts on a silica-gel column allowed separation between the inhibition of intracellular trafficking and geldanamycin-mediated degradation. One fraction that was devoid of geldanamycin blocked secretion of a soluble form of the erythropoietin receptor, retarded maturation of the epidermal growth factor receptor without enhancing its degradation, and blocked anterograde transport of a temperature-sensitive mutant of the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSVGtsO45) from the early Golgi cisternae. This fraction was enriched (>95%) in 17-demethylgeldanamycin. However, as synthetically derived 17-demethylgeldanamycin did not inhibit intracellular trafficking, we concluded that 17-demethylgeldanamycin is not the active component. We thus propose that a compound(s) that co-purifies with benzoquinone ansamycins inhibits intracellular transport. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the inhibitory effects on protein maturation and intracellular trafficking, previously attributed to geldanamycin, are mediated by another distinct moiety.

Abstract
Considerable progress has been made in identifying the molecular composition of complex signaling networks controlling cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival. However, to discover general building principles and predict the dynamic behavior of signaling networks, it is necessary to develop quantitative models based on experimental observations. Here we report a mathematical model of the core module of the Janus family of kinases (JAK)-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway based on time-resolved measurements of receptor and STAT5 phosphorylation. Applying the fitted model, we can determine the quantitative behavior of STAT5 populations not accessible to experimental measurement. By in silico investigations, we identify the parameters of nuclear shuttling as the most sensitive to perturbations and verify experimentally the model prediction that inhibition of nuclear export results in a reduced transcriptional yield. The model reveals that STAT5 undergoes rapid nucleocytoplasmic cycles, continuously coupling receptor activation and target gene transcription, thereby forming a remote sensor between nucleus and receptor. Thus, dynamic modeling of signaling pathways can promote functional understanding at the systems level.

Abstract
The oncostatin M receptor (OSMR) is part of a heterodimeric receptor complex that mediates signal transduction of the pleiotropic cytokine OSM via a signaling pathway involving Janus kinases (Jaks) and transcription factors of the signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) family. Upon heterologous expression of the OSMR in several cell lines, we observed that its surface expression was significantly enhanced by coexpression of the Janus kinases Jak1, Jak2, and Tyk2 but not Jak3. Chimeric receptors consisting of the extracellular region of the interleukin-5 receptor beta chain and the transmembrane and intracellular part of the OSMR were similarly up-regulated on the plasma membrane when Jak1 was coexpressed. The overall expression level of these constructs did not change significantly, but Jak1 coexpression increased the amount of endoglycosidase H-resistant, fully processed OSMR chimeras. Using mutated receptor and Jak1 constructs, we were able to demonstrate that association of Jak1 with the membrane proximal region of the receptor, but not its kinase activity, is necessary for this effect. Moreover, deletion of the OSMR box1/2 region also resulted in an improved surface expression indicating that this region may contain a signal preventing efficient receptor surface expression in the absence of associated Jaks. Finally we demonstrate that in Jak1-deficient cells, the endogenous OSMR is significantly down-regulated, an effect that can be reversed by transient expression of Jak1 in these cells.

Abstract
Erythropoietin (EPO) allows erythroid precursors to proliferate while protecting them from apoptosis. Treatment of the EPO-dependent HCD57 murine cell line with 70 μmol/L orthovanadate, a tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, resulted in both increased tyrosine protein phosphorylation and prevention of apoptosis in the absence of EPO without promoting proliferation. Orthovanadate also delayed apoptosis in primary human erythroid progenitors. Thus, we investigated what survival signals were activated by orthovanadate treatment. Expression of Bcl-XL and BAD phosphorylation are critical for the survival of erythroid cells, and orthovanadate in the absence of EPO both maintained expression levels of antiapoptotic Bcl-XLand induced BAD phosphorylation at serine 112. Orthovanadate activated JAK2, STAT1, STAT5, the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI-3 kinase) pathway, and other signals such as JNK and p38 without activating the EPO receptor, JAK1, Tyk2, Vav, STAT3, and SHC. Neither JNK nor p38 appeared to have a central role in either apoptosis or survival induced by orthovanadate. Treatment with cells with LY294002, an inhibitor of PI-3 kinase activity, triggered apoptosis in orthovanadate-treated cells, suggesting a critical role of PI-3 kinase in orthovanadate-stimulated survival. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) was poorly activated by orthovanadate, and inhibition of MAPK with PD98059 blocked proliferation without inducing apoptosis. Thus, orthovanadate likely acts to greatly increase JAK/STAT and PI-3 kinase basal activity in untreated cells by blocking tyrosine protein phosphatase activity. Activated JAK2/STAT5 then likely acts upstream of Bcl-XL expression and PI-3 kinase likely promotes BAD phosphorylation to protect from apoptosis. In contrast, MAPK/ERK activity correlates with only EPO-dependent proliferation but is not required for survival of HCD57 cells.

Abstract
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulates the growth of various types of cells via its cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor. The EGF receptor (EGF-R) has an oncogenic potential when overexpressed in a wide range of tumor cells. Geldanamycin (GA) and herbimycin (HA), specific inhibitors of the cytosolic chaperone HSP 90 and its endoplasmic reticulum homologue GRP 94, were shown to accelerate degradation of the EGF-R and of its homologue p185(c-)(erbB-2). Here we compared the effects of GA and HA on intracellular degradation and maturation of EGF-R. By using an inhibitor of proteasomal degradation, we learned that GA, but not HA, blocks processing of newly synthesized EGF-R. The effects of GA and HA on receptor degradation are mediated by the cytosolic portion of EGF-R and could be conferred to the erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R), by employing the respective chimera. Neither HA nor GA affected stability of newly synthesized EGF-R lacking the cytosolic domain (Ex EGF-R), but GA caused intracellular retention of this mutant. Taken together, our results imply that GA has two distinct targets of action on the EGF-R, one for promoting its degradation and another for mediating its intracellular retention. Apparently, degradation of the EGF-R mediated by GA or HA requires the presence of the EGF-R cytosolic domain, whereas intracellular retention in the presence of GA is coupled to the extracellular domain of the EGF-R.

Abstract
To investigate the role of protein tyrosine phosphatases in IL-4Ralpha-chain expression and signaling, we first established that SHP-1, but not SHP-2, coimmunoprecipitated with anti-IL-4Ralpha chain Abs in extracts prepared from resting lymphocytes. We further observed that the protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors Na3VO4 and pervanadate blocked the striking induction of IL-4Ralpha-chain expression that is mediated by IL-4. However, Na3VO4 did not diminish IL-4-induced Stat6 phosphorylation nor did it block the IL-4-mediated increase in IL-4Ralpha-chain mRNA. The striking inhibition in total cellular IL-4Ralpha-chain and in cell surface IL-4 receptors was associated with an inhibition of biosynthetic labeling of IL-4Ralpha-chain after a 30- min pulse with [35S] methionine, indicating that reduction of IL-4Ralpha-chain protein resulted from either a diminished production of the receptor or a rapid degradation, possibly as a result of phosphorylation of the receptor in an early biosynthetic cellular compartment. Control of newly synthesized IL-4Ralpha-chain protein expression by phosphatase may provide a novel means to regulate IL-4 responsiveness.

Abstract
The erythropoietin receptor (EPO-R) is the cellular target for erythropoietin (EPO), the primary hormone that mediates the proliferation of immature erythroblasts and their differentiation into mature erythrocytes. Unusual features of the EPO-R are its short half-life (t(1/2) 1-2 h), its degradation via multiple pathways and the fact that less than 1% of total cellular EPO-R molecules are found on the cell surface. The contribution of EPO-R structural determinants to the regulation of its intracellular metabolism is still unclear. The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGF-R), unlike the EPO-R, is efficiently transported to the cell surface and displays a much longer metabolic half-life. To determine which EPO-R cytosolic domains are involved in intracellular degradation, we studied chimeric receptor molecules constructed of EGF-R extracellular and transmembrane parts, linked to the full length or truncated cytosolic part of the EPO-R. The chimeras were expressed in transiently transfected COS 7 cells and stably expressed in Ba/F3 cells. Our experiments indicate that the cytosolic part of the EPO-R contains determinants that mark it for rapid degradation, in association with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). This degradation was insensitive to brefeldin A and was inhibited by specific proteasomal inhibitors. A truncated EGF-R/EPO-R chimera containing only 50 amino acids of the EPO-R membrane-proximal cytosolic part was also rapidly degraded suggesting that these 50 amino acids are involved in receptor degradation.

Abstract
Much of our understanding on how hormones and cytokines transmit their message into the cell is based on the receptor activation at the plasma membrane. Many experimental in vitro models have established the paradigm for cytokine action based upon such activation of their cell surface receptor. The signaling from the plasma membrane activated cytokine receptor is driven to the nucleus by a rapid ricochet of protein phosphorylation, ultimately integrated as a differentiative, proliferative, or transcriptional message. The Janus kinase (JAK)--signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) pathway that was first thought to be cytokine receptor specific now appears to be activated by other noncytokine receptors. Also, evidence is accumulating showing that cytokines modulate the signal transduction machinery of the tyrosine kinase receptors and that of the heterotrimeric guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein-coupled receptors. Thus cytokine receptor signaling has become much more complex than originally hypothesized, challenging the established model of specificity of the action of a given cytokine. This review is focused on another level of complexity emerging within cytokine receptor superfamily signaling. Over the past 10 years, data from different laboratories have shown that cytokines and their receptors localize to intracellular compartments including the nucleus, and, in some cases, biological responses have been correlated with this unexpected location, raising the possibility that cytokines act as their own messenger through inter-actions with nuclear proteins. Thus, the interplay between cytokine receptor engagement and cellular signaling turns out to be more dynamic than originally suspected. The mechanisms and regulations of intracellular translocation of the cytokines, their receptors, and their signaling proteins are discussed in the context that such compartmentalization provides some of the specificity of the responses mediated by each cytokine.

Abstract
Erythropoietin (EPO) promotes the viability, proliferation and differentiation of mammalian erythroid progenitor cells via its specific cell surface receptor. The EPO receptor (EPO-R) is a member of the cytokine receptor superfamily and is comprised of one identified subunit which homodimerizes upon ligand binding. To study the role of the intracellular domain of the EPO-R in the endocytosis of EPO, we compared the rate and extent of 125I-EPO endocytosis by wild type (wt) EPO-R and five cytoplasmically truncated EPO-Rs: 1-251 EPO-R, 1-257 EPO-R, 1-267 EPO-R, 1-276 EPO-R and 1-306 EPO-R which contain 4, 10, 20, 29 or 59 amino acids of the cytoplasmic domain, respectively. We also studied an EPO-R mutant (PB) which lacks amino acid residues 281-300 of the cytoplasmic domain. The experiments were conducted in COS 7 cells transfected with the EPO-R cDNAs and in Ba/F3 cells stably expressing the wt EPO-R, 1-251 or 1-257 EPO-R. Cells expressing wt EPO-R, PB EPO-R (delta281-300), 1-276 EPO-R or 1-306 EPO-R internalized approximately 50% of 125I-EPO bound to the cell surface, while cells expressing 1-251, 1-257 or 1-267 EPO-R internalized only 25% of the bound 125I-EPO. The steady-state expression levels of these latter receptors on the cell surface were typically 2-5-fold higher than wt EPO-R. Our data indicate that amino acid residues 267-276 (FEGLFTTHK) of the EPO-R cytoplasmic domain may have a role in receptor internalization. Metabolic labeling experiments suggest that in transiently transfected COS 7 cells most of the wt EPO-R and 1-257 EPO-Rs do not exit the ER and may be degraded there. The half-life of both receptors was essentially similar and was in the range of 1 h. In Ba/F3 cells the mature Golgi processed 1-257 EPO-R was more stable than the corresponding form of the wt EPO-R, possibly contributing to its higher cell surface expression.
