Clinacanthus nutans aqueous leaves extract exerts anti-allergic activity in preclinical anaphylactic models via alternative IgG pathway. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2023; 303:116003. [PMID: 36464074 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2022.116003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Revised: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 11/28/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Allergy is mediated by the crosslinking of immunoglobulins (Ig) -E or -G to their respective receptors, which degranulates mast cells, macrophages, basophils, or neutrophils, releasing allergy-causing mediators. The removal of these mediators such as histamine, platelet-activating factor (PAF) and interleukins (ILs) released by effector cells will alleviate allergy. Clinacanthus nutans (C. nutans), an herbal plant in Southeast Asia, is used traditionally to treat skin rash, an allergic symptom. Previously, we have reported that C. nutans aqueous leaves extract (CNAE) was able to suppress the release of β-hexosaminidase and histamine but not interleukin-4 (IL-4) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in the IgE-induced mast cell degranulation model at 5 mg/mL and above. We also found that CNAE could protect rats against ovalbumin-challenged active systemic anaphylaxis (OVA-ASA) through the downregulation and upregulation of certain metabolites using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR) metabolomics approach. AIM OF THE STUDY As allergy could be mediated by both IgE and IgG, we further evaluated the anti-allergy potential of CNAE in both in vitro model of IgG-induced macrophage activation and in vivo anaphylaxis models to further dissect the mechanism of action underlying the anti-allergic properties of CNAE. MATERIAL & METHODS The anti-allergy potential of CNAE was evaluated in in vivo anaphylaxis models of ovalbumin-challenged active systemic anaphylaxis (OVA-ASA) and IgE-challenged passive systemic anaphylaxis (PSA) using Sprague Dawley rats as well as IgG-challenged passive systemic anaphylaxis (IgG-PSA) using C57BL/6 mice. Meanwhile, in vitro model of IgG-induced macrophage activation model was performed using IC-21 macrophages. The release of soluble mediators from both IgE and IgG-mediated pathways were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The signaling molecules targeted by CNAE were identified by performing Western blot. RESULTS IgG, platelet-activating factor (PAF) and IL-6 was suppressed by CNAE in OVA-ASA, but not IgE. In addition, CNAE significantly suppressed PAF and IL-6 in IgG-PSA but did not suppress histamine, IL-4 and leukotrienes C4 (LTC4) in IgE-PSA. CNAE also inhibited IL-6 and TNF-α by inhibiting the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 in the IgG-induced macrophage activation model. CONCLUSION Overall, our findings supported that CNAE exerts its anti-allergic properties by suppressing the IgG pathway and its mediators by inhibiting ERK1/2 phosphorylation, thus providing scientific evidence supporting its traditional use in managing allergy.

Abstract
As the central hub of the metabolism machinery, the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 2 (mTORC2) has been well studied in lymphocytes. As an obligatory component of mTORC2, the role of Rictor in T cells is well established. However, the role of Rictor in B cells still remains elusive. Rictor is involved in B cell development, especially the peripheral development. However, the role of Rictor on B cell receptor (BCR) signaling as well as the underlying cellular and molecular mechanism is still unknown. This study used B cell-specfic Rictor knockout (KO) mice to investigate how Rictor regulates BCR signaling. We found that the key positive and negative BCR signaling molecules, phosphorylated Brutons tyrosine kinase (pBtk) and phosphorylated SH2-containing inositol phosphatase (pSHIP), are reduced and enhanced, respectively, in Rictor KO B cells. This suggests that Rictor positively regulates the early events of BCR signaling. We found that the cellular filamentous actin (F-actin) is drastically increased in Rictor KO B cells after BCR stimulation through dysregulating the dephosphorylation of ezrin. The high actin-ezrin intensity area restricts the lateral movement of BCRs upon stimulation, consequently reducing BCR clustering and BCR signaling. The reduction in the initiation of BCR signaling caused by actin alteration is associated with a decreased humoral immune response in Rictor KO mice. The inhibition of actin polymerization with latrunculin in Rictor KO B cells rescues the defects of BCR signaling and B cell differentiation. Overall, our study provides a new pathway linking cell metablism to BCR activation, in which Rictor regulates BCR signaling via actin reorganization.

Abstract
SHIP is an important regulator of immune cell signaling that functions to dephosphorylate the phosphoinositide phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate at the plasma membrane and mediate protein-protein interactions. One established paradigm for SHIP activation involves its recruitment to the phospho-ITIM motif of the inhibitory receptor FcγRIIB. Although SHIP is essential for the inhibitory function of FcγRIIB, it also has critical modulating functions in signaling initiated from activating immunoreceptors such as B cell Ag receptor. In this study, we found that SHIP is indistinguishably recruited to the plasma membrane after BCR stimulation with or without FcγRIIB coligation in human cell lines and primary cells. Interestingly, fluorescence recovery after photobleaching analysis reveals differential mobility of SHIP-enhanced GFP depending on the mode of stimulation, suggesting that although BCR and FcγRIIB can both recruit SHIP, this occurs via distinct molecular complexes. Mutagenesis of a SHIP-enhanced GFP fusion protein reveals that the SHIP-Src homology 2 domain is essential in both cases whereas the C terminus is required for recruitment via BCR stimulation, but is less important with FcγRIIB coligation. Experiments with pharmacological inhibitors reveal that Syk activity is required for optimal stimulation-induced membrane localization of SHIP, whereas neither PI3K or Src kinase activity is essential. BCR-induced association of SHIP with binding partner Shc1 is dependent on Syk, as is tyrosine phosphorylation of both partners. Our results indicate that FcγRIIB is not uniquely able to promote membrane recruitment of SHIP, but rather modulates its function via formation of distinct signaling complexes. Membrane recruitment of SHIP via Syk-dependent mechanisms may be an important factor modulating immunoreceptor signaling.

Abstract
The SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase, SHIP1, negatively regulates signal transduction from the B cell antigen receptor (BCR). The mode of coupling between SHIP1 and the BCR has not been elucidated so far. In comparison to wild-type cells, B cells expressing a mutant IgD- or IgM-BCR containing a C-terminally truncated Ig-α respond to pervanadate stimulation with markedly reduced tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP1 and augmented activation of protein kinase B. This indicates that SHIP1 is capable of interacting with the C-terminus of Ig-α. Employing a system of fluorescence resonance energy transfer in S2 cells, we can clearly demonstrate interaction between the SH2-domain of SHIP1 and Ig-α. Furthermore, a fluorescently labeled SH2-domain of SHIP1 translocates to the plasma membrane in an Ig-α-dependent manner. Interestingly, whereas the SHIP1 SH2-domain can be pulled-down with phospho-peptides corresponding to the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) of Ig-α from detergent lysates, no interaction between full-length SHIP1 and the phosphorylated Ig-α ITAM can be observed. Further studies show that the SH2-domain of SHIP1 can bind to the C-terminus of the SHIP1 molecule, most probably by inter- as well as intra-molecular means, and that this interaction regulates the association between different forms of SHIP1 and Ig-α.

Abstract
The activation of the BCR, which initiates B cell activation, is triggered by Ag-induced self-aggregation and clustering of receptors at the cell surface. Although Ag-induced actin reorganization is known to be involved in BCR clustering in response to membrane-associated Ag, the underlying mechanism that links actin reorganization to BCR activation remains unknown. In this study, we show that both the stimulatory Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk) and the inhibitory SHIP-1 are required for efficient BCR self-aggregation. In Btk-deficient B cells, the magnitude of BCR aggregation into clusters and B cell spreading in response to an Ag-tethered lipid bilayer is drastically reduced, compared with BCR aggregation observed in wild-type B cells. In SHIP-1(-/-) B cells, although surface BCRs aggregate into microclusters, the centripetal movement and growth of BCR clusters are inhibited, and B cell spreading is increased. The persistent BCR microclusters in SHIP-1(-/-) B cells exhibit higher levels of signaling than merged BCR clusters. In contrast to the inhibition of actin remodeling in Btk-deficient B cells, actin polymerization, F-actin accumulation, and Wiskott-Aldrich symptom protein phosphorylation are enhanced in SHIP-1(-/-) B cells in a Btk-dependent manner. Thus, a balance between positive and negative signaling regulates the spatiotemporal organization of the BCR at the cell surface by controlling actin remodeling, which potentially regulates the signal transduction of the BCR. This study suggests a novel feedback loop between BCR signaling and the actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and variants have become powerful tools to study protein localization, interactions, and dynamics. We present here a mass spectrometry-based proteomics strategy to examine protein-protein interactions using anti-GFP single-chain antibody V(H)H in a combination with a novel stable isotopic labeling reagent, isotope tag on amino groups (iTAG). We demonstrate that the single-chain V(H)H (GFP nanotrap) allows us to identify interacting partners of the Syk protein-tyrosine kinase bearing a GFP epitope tag with high efficiency and high specificity. Interacting proteins identified include CrkL, BLNK, α- and β-tubulin, Csk, RanBP5 and DJ-1. The iTAG reagents were prepared with simple procedures and characterized with high accuracy in the determination of peptides in model peptide mixtures and as well as in complex mixture. Applications of the iTAG method and GFP nanotrap to an analysis of the nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of Syk led to the identification of location-specific associations between Syk and multiple proteins. While the results reveal that the new quantitative proteomic strategy is generally applicable to integrate protein interaction data with subcellular localization, extra caution should be taken in evaluating the results obtained by such affinity purification strategies as many interactions appear to occur following cell lysis.

Abstract
The growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2) is a ubiquitously expressed and evolutionary conserved adapter protein possessing a plethora of described interaction partners for the regulation of signal transduction. In B lymphocytes, the Grb2-mediated scaffolding function controls the assembly and subcellular targeting of activating as well as inhibitory signalosomes in response to ligation of the antigen receptor. Also, integration of simultaneous signals from B-cell coreceptors that amplify or attenuate antigen receptor signal output relies on Grb2. Hence, Grb2 is an essential signal integrator. The key question remains, however, of how pathway specificity can be maintained during signal homeostasis critically required for the balance between immune cell activation and tolerance induction. Here, we summarize the molecular network of Grb2 in B cells and introduce a proteomic approach to elucidate the interactome of Grb2 in vivo.

Abstract
Syk kinase is best known as a critical component of immunoreceptor signaling in leukocytes. Activation of Syk following cross-linking of Fcgamma and Fcepsilon receptors on macrophages, mast cells, and other cells induces various inflammatory events. We hypothesized that Syk is involved in inflammatory responses induced by the lipopolysaccharide (LPS). We studied the role of Syk using its inhibition by antisense oligonucleotides, or small interfering RNA. Our data demonstrated that in vivo inhibition of Syk caused down-regulation of LPS-induced responses in rat alveolar macrophages. In in vitro experiments, inhibition of Syk in rat peritoneal macrophages, as well as in human myelomonocyte cell line THP-1 also caused a decrease in LPS-induced cytokine release. Our data support the hypothesis that, in macrophages, Syk is involved in LPS-induced intracellular signaling pathways leading to the release of pro-inflammatory mediators. Understanding the role of Syk in LPS-induced signaling may help in developing new therapeutic tools for inflammatory disorders.

Abstract
Glycerophosphoinositols (GPIs) are water-soluble phosphoinosite metabolites produced by all cell types, whose levels increase in response to a variety of extracellular stimuli, and are particularly high in Ras-transformed cells. GPIs are released to the extracellular space, wherefrom they can be taken up by other cells through a specific transporter. Exogenous GPIs affect a plethora of cellular functions. Among these compounds the most active is GroPIns4P, which affects cAMP levels and PKA-dependent functions through the inhibition of heterotrimeric Gs proteins. GroPIns4P has also recently been found to promote actin cytoskeleton reorganization by inducing Rho and Rac activation through an as yet unidentified mechanism. Here we have assessed the potential effects of GroPIns4P on T-cells. We found that GroPIns4P enhances CXCR4-dependent chemotaxis. This activity results from the capacity of GroPIns4P to activate the Rho GTPase exchange factor, Vav, through an Lck-dependent pathway which also results in activation of the stress kinases JNK and p38. GroPIns4P was also found to activate with a delayed kinetics the Lck-dependent activation of ZAP-70, Shc and Erk1/2. The activities of GroPIns4P were found to be dependent on its capacity to inhibit cAMP production and PKA activation. Collectively, the data provide the first evidence of a role of glycerophosphoinositols as modulators of T-cell signaling and establish a mechanistic basis for the effects of this phosphoinositide derivative on F-actin dynamics.

Abstract
Graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) is the leading cause of treatment-related death in allogeneic bone marrow (BM) transplantation. Immunosuppressive strategies to control GVHD are only partially effective and often lead to life-threatening infections. We previously showed that engraftment of MHC-mismatched BM is enhanced and GVHD abrogated in recipients homozygous for a germline SHIP mutation. In this study, we report the development of a genetic model in which SHIP deficiency can be induced in adult mice. Using this model, we show that the induction of SHIP deficiency in adult mice leads to a rapid and significant expansion of myeloid suppressor cells in peripheral lymphoid tissues. Consistent with expansion of myeloid suppressor cells, splenocytes and lymph node cells from adult mice with induced SHIP deficiency are significantly compromised in their ability to prime allogeneic T cell responses. These results demonstrate that SHIP regulates homeostatic signals for these immunoregulatory cells in adult physiology. Consistent with these findings, induction of SHIP deficiency before receiving a T cell-replete BM graft abrogates acute GVHD. These findings indicate strategies that target SHIP could increase the efficacy and utility of allogeneic BM transplantation, and thereby provide a curative therapy for a wide spectrum of human diseases.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease is the most common cause of dementia in the elderly, and manifests as progressive cognitive decline and profound neuronal loss. The principal neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease are the senile plaques and the neurofibrillary tangles. The senile plaques are surrounded by activated microglia, which are largely responsible for the proinflammatory environment within the diseased brain. Microglia are the resident innate immune cells in the brain. In response to contact with fibrillar beta-amyloid, microglia secrete a diverse array of proinflammatory molecules. Evidence suggests that oxidative stress emanating from activated microglia contribute to the neuronal loss characteristic of this disease. The source of fibrillar beta-amyloid induced reactive oxygen species is primarily the microglial nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase. The NADPH oxidase is a multicomponent enzyme complex that, upon activation, produces the highly reactive free radical superoxide. The cascade of intracellular signaling events leading to NADPH oxidase assembly and the subsequent release of superoxide in fibrillar beta-amyloid stimulated microglia has recently been elucidated. The induction of reactive oxygen species, as well as nitric oxide, from activated microglia can enhance the production of more potent free radicals such as peroxynitrite. The formation of peroxynitrite causes protein oxidation, lipid peroxidation and DNA damage, which ultimately lead to neuronal cell death. The elimination of beta-amyloid-induced oxidative damage through the inhibition of the NADPH oxidase represents an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract
Microglial interaction with extracellular beta-amyloid fibrils (fAbeta) is mediated through an ensemble of cell surface receptors, including the B-class scavenger receptor CD36, the alpha(6)beta(1)-integrin, and the integrin-associated protein/CD47. The binding of fAbeta to this receptor complex has been shown to drive a tyrosine kinase-based signaling cascade leading to production of reactive oxygen species and stimulation of phagocytic activity; however, little is known about the intracellular signaling cascades governing the microglial response to fAbeta. This study reports a direct mechanistic link between the fAbeta cell surface receptor complex and downstream signaling events responsible for NADPH oxidase activation and phagosome formation. The Vav guanine nucleotide exchange factor is tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to fAbeta peptides as a result of the engagement of the microglia fAbeta cell surface receptor complex. Co-immunoprecipitation studies demonstrate an Abeta-dependent association between Vav and both Lyn and Syk kinases. The downstream target of Vav, the small GTPase Rac1, is GTP-loaded in an Abeta-dependent manner. Rac1 is both an essential component of the NADPH oxidase and a critical regulator of microglial phagocytosis. The direct role of Vav in fAbeta-stimulated intracellular signaling cascades was established using primary microglia obtained from Vav(-/-) mice. Stimulation of Vav(-/-) microglia with fAbeta failed to generate NADPH oxidase-derived reactive oxygen species and displayed a dramatically attenuated phagocytic response. These findings directly link Vav phosphorylation to the Abeta-receptor complex and demonstrate that Vav activity is required for fAbeta-stimulated intracellular signaling events upstream of reactive oxygen species production and phagosome formation.

Abstract
Ageing is characterized by deficits in learning and memory and by a deficit in long-term potentiation (LTP) in hippocampus. Several age-related changes, including dysfunction of calcium homeostatic mechanisms and upregulation of inflammatory processes are likely to contribute to these deficits. Here we exploited the fact that aged rats fall into a subgroup which fail to sustain LTP in perforant path granule cell synapses as a result of tetanic stimulation, and a subgroup which sustains LTP in a manner indistinguishable from young rats, in an effort to identify differential changes in the two subgroups. The age-related increase in IL-1beta concentration and IL-1beta-induced signalling was more profound in aged rats which failed to sustain LTP. We demonstrate that functional IL-4 receptors are expressed in rat hippocampus and that age is associated with a decrease in IL-4 concentration accompanied by a decrease in phosphorylation of JAK-1 and STAT-6. We propose that the imbalance between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines in the aged brain significantly contributes to age-related deficits in synaptic function.

Abstract
In macrophages and monocytes, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers the production of pro-inflammatory cytokine through Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4. Although major TLR signalling pathways are mediated by serine or threonine kinases including IKK, TAK1, p38 and JNKs, a number of reports suggested that tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins is involved in LPS signalling. Here, we identified several tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins using mass spectrometric analysis in response to LPS stimulation. Among these proteins, we characterized C-terminal Src kinase (Csk), which negatively regulates Src-like kinases in RAW 264.7 cells using RNAi knockdown technology. Unexpectedly, LPS-induced CD40 activation and the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokine such as IL-6 and TNF-alpha, was down-regulated in Csk knockdown cells. Furthermore, overall cellular tyrosine phosphorylation and TLR4-mediated activation of IkappaB-alpha, Erk and p38 but not of JNK, were also down-regulated in Csk knockdown cells. The protein expression levels of a tyrosine kinase, Fgr, were reduced in Csk knockdown cells, suggesting that Csk is a critical regulator of TLR4-mediated signalling by modifying the levels of Src-like kinases.

Abstract
Recent advances in the study of CD22 indicate a complex role for this transmembrane glycoprotein member of the immunoglobulin superfamily in the regulation of B lymphocyte survival and proliferation. CD22 has been previously recognized as a potential lectin-like adhesion molecule that binds alpha2,6-linked sialic acid-bearing ligands and as an important regulator of B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) signaling. However, genetic studies in mice reveal that some CD22 functions are regulated by ligand binding, whereas other functions are ligand-independent and may only require expression of an intact CD22 cytoplasmic domain at the B-cell surface. Until recently, most of the functional activity of CD22 has been widely attributed to CD22's ability to recruit potent intracellular phosphatases and limit the intensity of BCR-generated signals. However, a more complex role for CD22 has recently emerged, including a central role in a novel regulatory loop controlling the CD19/CD21-Src-family protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) amplification pathway that regulates basal signaling thresholds and intensifies Src-family kinase activation after BCR ligation. CD22 is also central to the regulation of peripheral B-cell homeostasis and survival, the promotion of BCR-induced cell cycle progression, and is a potent regulator of CD40 signaling. Herein we discuss our current understanding of how CD22 governs these complex and overlapping processes, how alterations in these tightly controlled regulatory activities may influence autoimmune disease, and the current and future applications of CD22-directed therapies in oncology and autoimmunity.

Abstract
The insulin/interleukin-4 (IL-4) receptor (I4R) motif mediates the association of insulin receptor substrate (IRS)-2 with the interleukin-4 (IL-4)Ralpha chain and transduces mitogenic signals in response to IL-4. Its physiological functions were analyzed in mice with a germline point mutation that changed the motif's effector tyrosine residue into phenylalanine (Y500F). The Y500F mutation abrogated IRS-2 phosphorylation and impaired IL-4-induced CD4+ T lymphocyte proliferation but left unperturbed Stat6 activation, up-regulation of IL-4-responsive gene products, and Th cell differentiation under Th2 polarizing conditions. However, in vivo the Y500F mutation was associated with increased allergen-induced IgE production, airway responsiveness, tissue eosinophilia, and mucus production. These results define an important role for the I4R motif in regulating allergic inflammation.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a product of Gram-negative bacteria, is potent mediator of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)alpha production by myeloid/macrophage cells. Inhibitors capable of blocking the signaling events that result in TNF alpha production could provide useful therapeutics for treating septic shock and other inflammatory diseases. Broad spectrum tyrosine inhibitors are known to inhibit TNF alpha production, however, no particular family of tyrosine kinases has been shown to be essential for this process. Here we show that the Bruton's tyrosine kinase (Btk)-deficient mononuclear cells from X-linked agammaglobulinemia patients have impaired LPS-induced TNF alpha production and that LPS rapidly induces Btk kinase activity in normal monocytes. In addition, adenoviral overexpression of Btk in normal human monocytes enhanced TNF alpha production. We examined the role of Btk in TNF alpha production using luciferase reporter adenoviral constructs and have established that overexpression of Btk results in the stabilization of TNF alpha mRNA via the 3' untranslated region. Stimulation with LPS also induced the activation of related tyrosine kinase, Tec, suggesting that the Tec family kinases are important components for LPS-induced TNF alpha production. This study provides the first clear evidence that tyrosine kinases of the Tec family, in particular Btk, are key elements of LPS-induced TNF alpha production and consequently may provide valuable therapeutic targets for intervention in inflammatory conditions.

Abstract
Interleukin-9 (IL-9) stimulates the proliferation of mast cells and lymphocytes. In the present study, we showed that IL-9 induced a transient phosphorylation of MEK, ERK2 and p90/RSK in murine lymphoid and mast cell lines. ERK2 in vitro kinase activity was also increased upon IL-9 stimulation. Similar results were obtained with IL-4, which had not been previously reported to activate these kinases in hematopoietic cells. Analysis of IL-9 receptor mutants showed that activation of the pathway was correlated with proliferation and with phosphorylation of the adaptor protein SHC, but not IRS2 or GAB2. The MEK inhibitor PD98059 reduced the mitogenic response to IL-4 and IL-9. In addition, expression of a dominant-negative RAS variant blocked ERK phosphorylation and significantly decreased Ba/F3 cell growth in the presence of IL-9, but did not affect expression of pim-1, a STAT target gene. In summary, these results indicate that IL-9 can transiently activate the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, which contributes to growth stimulation of hematopoietic cell lines.

Abstract
The hematopoietic-restricted protein Src homology 2-containing inositol-5-phosphatase (SHIP) blunts phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-initiated signaling by dephosphorylating its major substrate, phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate. As SHIP(-/-) mice contain increased numbers of osteoclast precursors, that is, macrophages, we examined bones from these animals and found that osteoclast number is increased two-fold. This increased number is due to the prolonged life span of these cells and to hypersensitivity of precursors to macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL). Similar to pagetic osteoclasts, SHIP(-/-) osteoclasts are enlarged, containing upwards of 100 nuclei, and exhibit enhanced resorptive activity. Moreover, as in Paget disease, serum levels of interleukin-6 are markedly increased in SHIP(-/-) mice. Consistent with accelerated resorptive activity, 3D trabecular volume fraction, trabecular thickness, number and connectivity density of SHIP(-/-) long bones are reduced, resulting in a 22% loss of bone-mineral density and a 49% decrease in fracture energy. Thus, SHIP negatively regulates osteoclast formation and function and the absence of this enzyme results in severe osteoporosis.

Abstract
Many studies have shown that FcgammaRIIB is a negative regulator of B cell receptor signaling, and even though FcgammaRIIB is expressed through all developmental stages of the B cell lineage, its involvement in pre-B cell receptor (pre-BCR) signaling has not been examined. To investigate FcgammaRIIB function at the pre-B cell stage, we have established pre-BCR positive pre-B cell lines from normal mice and FcgammaRIIB-deficient mice, named PreBR and Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, respectively. These cell lines are able to differentiate into immature B cells in vitro by removal of IL-7. In PreBR, apoptosis was moderately induced by F(ab')(2) anti-mu Ab, but not by intact anti-mu Ab. Phosphorylation of SH2-containing inositol 5-phosphatase (SHIP) and Dok, which are involved in FcgammaRIIB signaling, was induced by anti-mu cross-linking in PreBR. In contrast, apoptosis was strongly induced by both the F(ab')(2) and intact anti-mu Abs in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR, and the level of phosphorylation of SHIP or Dok was much lower in Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR than those observed in PreBR. Restoration of FcgammaRIIB to Fcgamma(-/-)PreBR followed by anti-mu cross-linking blocked severe apoptosis, and up-regulated SHIP and Dok phosphorylation. The results demonstrate that FcgammaRIIB negatively regulates pre-BCR-mediated signaling for apoptosis.

Abstract
SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) modulates the activation of immune cells after recruitment to the membrane by Shc and the cytoplasmic tails of receptors. A novel SHIP isoform of approximately 104 kd expressed in primitive stem cell populations (s-SHIP) is described. It was found that s-SHIP is expressed in totipotent embryonic stem cells to the exclusion of the 145-kd SHIP isoform expressed in differentiated hematopoietic cells. s-SHIP is also expressed in primitive hematopoietic stem cells, but not in lineage-committed hematopoietic cells. In embryonic stem cells, s-SHIP partners with the adapter protein Grb2 without tyrosine phosphorylation and is present constitutively at the cell membrane. It is postulated that s-SHIP modulates the activation threshold of primitive stem cell populations.

Abstract
The etiology of Alzheimer's disease (AD) involves a significant inflammatory component as evidenced by the presence of elevated levels of a diverse range of proinflammatory molecules in the AD brain. These inflammatory molecules are produced principally by activated microglia, which are found to be clustered within and adjacent to the senile plaque. Moreover, long-term treatment of patients with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs has been shown to reduce risk and incidence of AD and delay disease progression. The microglia respond to beta-amyloid (Abeta) deposition in the brain through the interaction of fibrillar forms of amyloid with cell surface receptors, leading to the activation of intracellular signal transduction cascades. The activation of multiple independent signaling pathways ultimately leads to the induction of proinflammatory gene expression and production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. These microglial inflammatory products act in concert to produce neuronal toxicity and death. Therapeutic approaches focused on inhibition of the microglial-mediated local inflammatory response in the AD brain offer new opportunities to intervene in the disease.

Abstract
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are involved in human monocyte activation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and Staphylococcus aureus Cowan (SAC), suggesting that gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria may trigger similar intracellular events. Treatment with specific kinase inhibitors prior to cell stimulation dramatically decreased LPS-induced cytokine production. Blocking of the p38 pathway prior to LPS stimulation decreased interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha), IL-1ra, and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) production, whereas blocking of the ERK1/2 pathways inhibited IL-1alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-1ra but not TNF-alpha production. When cells were stimulated by SAC, inhibition of the p38 pathway did not affect cytokine production, whereas only IL-1alpha production was decreased in the presence of ERK kinase inhibitor. We also demonstrated that although LPS and SAC have been shown to bind to CD14 before transmitting signals to TLR4 and TLR2, respectively, internalization of CD14 occurred only in monocytes triggered by LPS. Pretreatment of the cells with SB203580, U0126, or a mixture of both inhibitors did not affect internalization of CD14. Altogether, these results suggest that TLR2 signaling does not involve p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways, indicating that divergent pathways are triggered by gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, thereby inducing cytokine production.

Abstract
beta-Amyloid peptides (Abetas) share with lipopolysaccharide, a potent pro-inflammatory agent, the property of stimulating glial cells or macrophages to induce various inflammatory mediators. We recently reported that central administration of lipopolysaccharide induces peripheral interleukin-6 responses via both the central and peripheral norepinephrine system. In this study, the effect of intracerebroventricular injection of various synthetic Abetas on plasma interleukin-6 levels was examined in mice. Abeta(1-42) dose-dependently increased plasma interleukin-6 levels: 'aged' Abeta(1-42) was more effective than fresh, whereas Abeta(42-1) had no effect. 'Aged' Abeta(1-42) (205 pmol/mouse i.c.v.)-induced plasma interleukin-6 peaked at 2 h post injection, which is earlier than the peak time of the Abeta(1-42)-induced brain interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1beta levels, which was 4, 4 and 24 h, respectively. Among various peripheral organs, Abeta(1-42) (205 pmol/mouse i.c.v.) significantly increased interleukin-6 mRNA expression in lymph nodes and liver. Abeta(1-42) (205 pmol/mouse i.c.v.) significantly increased norepinephrine turnover in both hypothalamus and spleen. Either central or peripheral norepinephrine depletion effectively inhibited the Abeta(1-42)-induced peripheral interleukin-6 response. Pretreatment with prazosin (alpha(1)-adrenergic antagonist), yohimbine (alpha(2)-adrenergic antagonist), and ICI-118,551 (beta(2)-adrenergic antagonist), but not with betaxolol (beta(1)-adrenergic antagonist), inhibited Abeta(1-42)-induced plasma interleukin-6 levels. These results demonstrate that centrally administered Abeta(1-42) effectively induces the systemic interleukin-6 response which is mediated, in part, by central Abeta(1-42)-induced activation of the central and the peripheral norepinephrine systems.

Abstract
Fibroblasts, a rich source of chemokines, interact with eosinophils and play a key role in the pathogenesis of airway disease. RANTES is produced by fibroblasts to attract and activate eosinophils. LPS is known to induce RANTES and cause protein tyrosine phosphorylation. Nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase Syk is widely expressed and an important role in intracellular signal transduction in hemopoietic cells. In the present study, we examined whether Syk was expressed in a number of primary human nasal polyp tissue-derived fibroblast lines and whether it played some role in cellular function. Syk proteins were expressed in human nasal fibroblasts, but the expression level varied. There were positive correlations between the level of Syk expression and RANTES production induced by LPS. Overexpression of wild-type Syk by gene transfer enhanced RANTES production from nasal fibroblasts stimulated with LPS. The decrease of Syk expression by the administration of Syk antisense inhibited RANTES production. These results suggest that Syk expression affects RANTES production in fibroblasts of nasal polyps.

Abstract
The SH2-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) is tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-3, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and macrophage colony-stimulating factor. SHIP has been shown to modulate negatively these cytokine signalings; however, a potential role in IL-4 signaling remains uncharacterized. It has been recently shown that IL-4 induces tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP, implicating the phosphatase in IL-4 processes. Tyrosine kinases, Jak1 and Jak3, involved in IL-4 signaling can associate with SHIP, yet only Jak1 can tyrosine-phosphorylate SHIP when co-expressed. In functional studies, cells overexpressing wild type SHIP are found to be hyperproliferative in response to IL-4 in comparison to parental cells. In contrast, cells expressing catalytically inactive form, SHIP(D672A), show reduced proliferation in response to IL-4. These changes in IL-4-induced proliferation correlate with alterations in phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate levels. However, no differential activation of STAT6, Akt, IRS-2, or p70(S6k), in response to IL-4, was observed in these cells. These data suggest that the catalytic activity of SHIP acts in a novel manner to influence IL-4 signaling. In addition, these data support recent findings that suggest there are uncharacterized signaling pathways downstream of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-triphosphate.

Abstract
Hedgehog (Hh) signal transduction requires a large cytoplasmic multi-protein complex that binds microtubules in an Hh-dependent manner. Here, we show that three members of this complex, Costal2 (Cos2), Fused (Fu), and Cubitus interruptus (Ci), bind each other directly to form a trimeric complex. We demonstrate that this trimeric signaling complex exists in Drosophila lacking Suppressor of Fused (Su(fu)), an extragenic suppressor of fu, indicating that Su(fu) is not required for the formation, or apparently function, of the Hh signaling complex. However, we subsequently show that Su(fu), although not a requisite component of this complex, does form a tetrameric complex with Fu, Cos2, and Ci. This additional Su(fu)-containing Hh signaling complex does not appear to be enriched on microtubules. Additionally, we demonstrate that in response to Hh Ci accumulates in the nucleus without its various cytoplasmic binding partners, including Su(fu). We discuss a model in which Su(fu) and Cos2 each bind to Fu and Ci to exert some redundant effect on Ci such as cytoplasmic retention. This model is consistent with genetic data demonstrating that Su(fu) is not required for Hh signal transduction proper and with the elaborate genetic interactions observed among Su(fu), fu, cos2, and ci.

Abstract
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of Gram-negative bacteria interacts with a CD14-independent receptor of mouse bone marrow granulocytes (BMC), and triggers in these cells the expression of CD14, an inducible type of LPS receptor (iLpsR). This particular response of BMC to LPS required the activation of protein tyrosine kinase and p38 MAP kinase. The inhibition of the LPS effect by the MEK inhibitor PD-98059 suggested that the ERK pathway was also involved. Unexpectedly, protein kinase C, myosin light chain kinase, cAMP-, cGMP-, and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinases, as well as ecto-protein kinases, were not required for iLpsR expression. However, other yet unidentified serine/threonine protein kinase(s) were implied since the BMC response to LPS was markedly reduced after exposure to three inhibitors of such kinases (K-252a, H-7, and KT-5823). The atypical kinase requirements observed in this study may be due either to a novel signaling LPS receptor complex present in BMC, or to the particular events involved in CD14 biosynthesis.

Abstract
CD22 is a cell surface molecule that regulates signal transduction in B lymphocytes. Tyrosine-phosphorylated CD22 recruits numerous cytoplasmic effector molecules including SHP-1, a potent phosphotyrosine phosphatase that down-regulates B cell antigen receptor (BCR)- and CD19-generated signals. Paradoxically, B cells from CD22-deficient mice generate augmented intracellular calcium responses following BCR ligation, yet proliferation is decreased. To understand further the mechanisms through which CD22 regulates BCR-dependent calcium flux and proliferation, interactions between CD22 and effector molecules involved in these processes were assessed. The adapter proteins Grb2 and Shc were found to interact with distinct and specific regions of the CD22 cytoplasmic domain. Src homology-2 domain-containing inositol polyphosphate-5'-phosphatase (SHIP) also bound phosphorylated CD22, but binding required an intact CD22 cytoplasmic domain. All three molecules were bound to CD22 when isolated from BCR-stimulated splenic B cells, indicating the formation of a CD22.Grb2.Shc.SHIP quaternary complex. Therefore, SHIP associating with CD22 may be important for SHIP recruitment to the cell surface where it negatively regulates calcium influx. Although augmented calcium responses in CD22-deficient mice should facilitate enhanced c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) activation, BCR ligation did not induce JNK activation in CD22-deficient B cells. These data demonstrate that CD22 functions as a molecular "scaffold" that specifically coordinates the docking of multiple effector molecules, in addition to SHP-1, in a context necessary for BCR-dependent SHIP activity and JNK stimulation.

Abstract
The inositol phosphatase SHIP binds to the FcgammaRIIB1 receptor and plays a critical role in FcgammaRIIB1-mediated inhibition of B-cell proliferation and immunoglobulin synthesis. The molecular details of SHIP function are not fully understood. While point mutations of the signature motifs in the inositol phosphatase domain abolish SHIP's ability to inhibit calcium flux in B cells, little is known about the function of the evolutionarily conserved, putative noncatalytic regions of SHIP in vivo. In this study, through a systematic mutagenesis approach, we identified the inositol phosphatase domain of SHIP between amino acids 400 and 866. Through reconstitution of a SHIP-deficient B-cell line with wild-type and mutant forms of SHIP, we demonstrate that the catalytic domain alone is not sufficient to mediate FcgammaRIIB1/SHIP-dependent inhibition of B-cell receptor signaling. Expression of a truncation mutant of SHIP that has intact phosphatase activity but lacks the last 190 amino acids showed that the noncatalytic region in the C terminus is essential for inhibitory signaling. Mutation of two tyrosines within this C-terminal region, previously identified as important in binding to Shc, showed a reduced inhibition of calcium flux. However, studies with an Shc-deficient B-cell line indicated that Shc-SHIP complex formation is not required and that other proteins that bind these tyrosines may be important in FcgammaRIIB1/SHIP-mediated calcium inhibition. Interestingly, membrane targeting of SHIP lacking the C terminus is able to restore this inhibition, suggesting a role for the C terminus in localization or stabilization of SHIP interaction at the membrane. Taken together, these data suggest that the noncatalytic carboxyl-terminal 190 amino acids of SHIP play a critical role in SHIP function in B cells and may play a similar role in several other receptor systems where SHIP functions as a negative regulator.

Abstract
In this report, we demonstrate that the Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol-5-phosphatase (SHIP) plays a critical role in regulating both B cell development and responsiveness to antigen stimulation. SHIP(-/-) mice exhibit a transplantable alteration in B lymphoid development that results in reduced numbers of precursor B (fraction C) and immature B cells in the bone marrow. In vitro, purified SHIP(-/)- B cells exhibit enhanced proliferation in response to B cell receptor stimulation in both the presence and absence of Fcgamma receptor IIB coligation. This enhancement is associated with increased phosphorylation of both mitogen-activated protein kinase and Akt, as well as with increased survival and cell cycling. SHIP(-/)- mice manifest elevated serum immunoglobulin (Ig) levels and an exaggerated IgG response to the T cell-independent type 2 antigen trinitrophenyl Ficoll. However, only altered B cell development was apparent upon transplantation into nonobese diabetic-severe combined immunodeficient (NOD/SCID) mice. The in vitro hyperresponsiveness, together with the in vivo findings, suggests that SHIP regulates B lymphoid development and antigen responsiveness by both intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms.

Abstract
The IL-4Ralpha contains the I4R motif which binds to the phosphotyrosine binding domain of several adaptor proteins, including IRS-1/2 and Shc. Although the involvement of IRS-1/2 in IL-4-induced PI3-kinase activation is known, there is little information on the role of Shc in IL-4 signaling. In this study, we found the preferential utilization of Shc by the IL-4Ralpha in a human Burkitt's B lymphoma cell line, DND39. IL-4 induced the association of tyrosine-phosphorylated Shc with the IL-4Ralpha, whereas no detectable tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 or IRS-2 was induced. IL-4-induced germline epsilon promoter activation was enhanced by overexpression of Shc and was inhibited by truncated Shc lacking the collagen-homologous domain. We further found the association of Shc with PLCgamma1. Although direct tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma1 was not detectable, the amount of PLCgamma1 coprecipitable with anti-phosphotyrosine was increased after IL-4 stimulation. These results suggest that Shc can function as an adaptor protein of the IL-4Ralpha and mediate the germline epsilon transcription.

Abstract
Clustering of the mast cell function-associated antigen by its specific monoclonal antibody (G63) inhibits the FcepsilonRI-mediated secretory response. The cytosolic tail of the mast cell function-associated antigen contains a SIYSTL stretch, a potential immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif. To investigate the possible functional role of this sequence, as well as identify potential intracellular proteins that interact with it, peptides corresponding to residues 4-12 of the mast cell function-associated antigen's N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, containing the above motif, were synthesized and used in affinity chromatography of mast cell lysates. Both tyrosyl phosphorylated and thiophosphorylated mast cell function-associated antigen peptides bound the src homology domain 2 (SH2)-containing tyrosine phosphatases-1 (SHP-1), -2 (SHP-2) and inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP), though with different efficiencies. Neither the nonphosphorylated peptide nor its tyrosyl phosphorylated reversed sequence peptide bound any of these phosphatases. Point mutation analysis of mast cell function-associated antigen pITIM binding requirements demonstrated that for SHP-2 association the amino acid residue at position Y-2 is not restricted to the hydrophobic isoleucine or valine. Glycine and other amino acids with hydrophilic residues, such as serine and threonine, at this position also maintain this binding capacity, whereas alanine and acidic residues abolish it. In contrast, SHP-1 binding was maintained only when serine was substituted by valine, suggesting that the Y-2 position provides selectivity for peptide binding to SH2 domains of SHP-1 and SHP-2. These results were corroborated by surface plasmon resonance measurements of the interaction between tyrosyl phosphorylated mast cell function-associated antigen peptide and recombinant soluble SH2 domains of SHP-1, SHP-2 and SHIP, suggesting that the associations observed in the cell lysates may be direct. Taken together these results clearly indicate that the SIYSTL motif present in mast cell function-associated antigen's cytosolic tail exhibits characteristic features of an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif, suggesting it is a new member of the growing diverse family of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif-containing receptors.

Abstract
Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc in response to B cell Ag receptor (BCR) engagement creates binding sites for the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain of Grb2. This facilitates the recruitment of both Grb2 · Sos complexes and Grb2 · SHIP complexes to the plasma membrane where Sos can activate Ras and SH2 domain-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) can dephosphorylate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate. Given the importance of Shc phosphorylation, we investigated the mechanism by which the BCR stimulates this response. We found that both the SH2 domain and phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain of Shc are important for BCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc and the subsequent binding of Grb2 to Shc. The unexpected finding that the PTB domain of Shc is required for Shc phosphorylation was investigated further. Because the major ligand for the Shc PTB domain is SHIP, we asked whether the interaction of Shc with SHIP was required for BCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc. Using SHIP-deficient DT40 cells, we show that SHIP is necessary for the BCR to induce significant levels of Shc tyrosine phosphorylation. BCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc could be restored in the these cells by expressing wild-type SHIP but not by expressing a mutant form of SHIP that cannot bind to Shc. This suggests that BCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc may depend on the binding of SHIP to the Shc PTB domain. Thus, we have described a novel role for SHIP in BCR signaling, promoting the tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc.

Abstract
On cytokine-primed U937 cells, aggregation of the human high-affinity immunoglobulin receptor, FcgammaRI, initiates signal transduction cascades which lead to the release of calcium from intracellular stores and no significant calcium influx. In these cells, aggregation of FcgammaRI results in no significant increase in inositol trisphosphate production, but rather phospholipase D is activated. Here we show that, in interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma)-primed cells, the SH2 containing inositol 5' phosphatase, SHIP, is constitutively associated with the membrane fraction. Following aggregation of FcgammaRI, SHIP is rapidly and transiently tyrosine phosphorylated and becomes associated with the adapter molecule Shc. Shc also becomes tyrosine phosphorylated and translocates from the cytoplasm to the membrane fraction concomitant with the association between Shc and SHIP. Further, SHIP and Shc appear to be recruited to membrane-associated immune complexes following FcgammaRI aggregation. As no immunoreceptor inhibitory motif has been demonstrated to associate with FcgammaRI, these data suggest that SHIP may be recruited to the receptor through an SH2 domain interaction with Shc.

Abstract
Interleukin-4 is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in the regulation of immune responses. Its effects depend upon binding to and signaling through a receptor complex consisting of the IL-4R alpha chain and the common gamma chain (gamma c), resulting in a series of phosphorylation events mediated by receptor-associated kinases. In turn, these cause the recruitment of mediators of cell growth, of resistance to apoptosis, and of gene activation and differentiation. Here we describe our current understanding of the organization of the IL-4 receptor, of the signaling pathways that are induced as a result of receptor occupancy, and of the various mechanisms through which receptor function is modulated. We particularly emphasize the modular nature of the receptor and the specialization of different receptor regions for distinct functions, most notably the independent regulation of cell growth and gene activation.

Abstract
Current models of FcγR signal transduction in monocytes describe a molecular cascade that begins upon clustering of FcγR with the phosphorylation of critical tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic domains of FcγRIIa or the γ-chain subunit of FcγRI and FcγRIIIa. The cascade engages several other tyrosine-phosphorylated molecules, either enzymes or adapters, to manifest ultimately an array of biological responses, including phagocytosis, cell killing, secretion of a variety of inflammatory mediators, and activation. Continuing to assess systematically the molecules participating in the cascade, we have found that the SH2-containing 5′-inositol phosphatase (SHIP) is phosphorylated on tyrosine early and transiently after FcγR clustering. This molecule in other systems, such as B cells and mast cells, mediates an inhibitory signal. We find that clustering of either FcγRIIa or FcγRI is effective in inducing SHIP phosphorylation, that SHIP binds in vitro to a phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif, peptide from the cytoplasmic domain of FcγRIIa in activation-independent fashion, although SHIP binding increases upon cell activation, and that FcγRIIb and FcγRIIc are not responsible for the observed SHIP phosphorylation. These findings prompt us to propose that SHIP inhibits FcγR-mediated signal transduction by engaging immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif-containing cytoplasmic domains of FcγRIIa and FcγRI-associated γ-chain.

Abstract
Co-clustering of the type II receptors binding the Fc part of IgG (FcgammaRIIb) and B cell receptors results in the translocation of cytosolic, negative regulatory molecules to the phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (P-ITIM) of the FcgammaRIIb. SH2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatases (SHP-1 and SHP-2), and the polyphosphoinositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) have been reported earlier to bind to murine FcgammaRIIb P-ITIM. However, neither the functional substrates of these enzymes, nor the mechanism of the inhibition are fully resolved. We show here that the human FcgammaRIIb binds SHP-2 when co-clustered with the B cell receptors, whereas its synthetic P-ITIM peptide bindes SHP-2 and SHIP in lysates of the Burkitt's lymphoma cell line BL41. The P-ITIM peptide binding enhances SHP-2 activity, resulting in dephosphorylation and release of P-ITIM-bound SHIP and Shc. Moreover, P-ITIM-bound SHP-2 dephosphorylates synthetic peptides corresponding to the sites of tyrosine phosphorylation on SHIP and Shc, indicating that these proteins are its potential substrates. Thus SHP-2-induced dephosphorylation may modulate the intracellular localization and/or activity of SHIP and Shc, thereby inhibiting further activation pathways which they mediate.

Abstract
Abstract
CDw150, a receptor up-regulated on activated T or B lymphocytes, has a key role in regulating B cell proliferation. Patients with X-linked lymphoproliferative disease have mutations in a gene encoding a protein, DSHP/SAP, which interacts with CDw150 and is expressed in B cells. Here we show that CDw150 on B cells associates with two tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins, 59 kDa and 145 kDa in size. The 59-kDa protein was identified as the Src-family kinase Fgr. The 145-kDa protein is the inositol polyphosphate 5′-phosphatase, SH2-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP). Both Fgr and SHIP interact with phosphorylated tyrosines in CDw150’s cytoplasmic tail. Ligation of CDw150 induces the rapid dephosphorylation of both SHIP and CDw150 as well as the association of Lyn and Fgr with SHIP. CD95/Fas-mediated apoptosis is enhanced by signaling via CDw150, and CDw150 ligation can override CD40-induced rescue of CD95-mediated cell death. The ability of CDw150 to regulate cell death does not correlate with serine phosphorylation of the Akt kinase, but does correlate with SHIP tyrosine dephosphorylation. Thus, the CDw150 receptor may function to regulate the fate of activated B cells via SHIP as well as via the DSHP/SAP protein defective in X-linked lymphoproliferative disease patients.

Abstract
The inositol phosphatase SHIP has been implicated in signaling events downstream of a variety of receptors and is thought to play an inhibitory role in stimulated B cells. We and others have reported that SHIP is rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated upon B cell antigen receptor (BCR) cross-linking and forms a complex with the adapter protein Shc. Here, we report that cross-linking of the BCR induces association between Grb2 and SHIP as well as association between Shc and SHIP. We made use of a Grb2-deficient B cell line to demonstrate both in vitro and in vivo that Grb2 expression is required for the efficient association between Shc and SHIP. The results indicate that SHIP, Shc, and Grb2 form a ternary complex in stimulated B cells, with Grb2 stabilizing the interaction between Shc and SHIP. The interactions between Shc, Grb2, and SHIP are therefore analogous to the interactions between Shc, Grb2, and SOS. Shc and Grb2 may help to localize SHIP to the cell membrane, regulating SHIP's inhibitory function following BCR stimulation.

Abstract
Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) mediates inhibitory signals that attenuate intracellular Ca2+ mobilization in B cells upon B cell receptor (BCR) stimulation. To clarify the mechanisms affected by SHIP, we analyzed Ca2+ mobilization in the DT40 B cell line in which the SHIP gene was disrupted. In SHIP-deficient cells, Ca2+ transient elicited by BCR stimulation was more prolonged than that in control cells both in the presence and absence of extracellular Ca2+. Inositol 1,4, 5-trisphosphate production following BCR stimulation was enhanced in SHIP-deficient cells. In SHIP-deficient cells in comparison with the control cells, BCR stimulation in the absence of extracellular Ca2+ induced a greater degree of Ca2+ store depletion and the Ca2+ influx upon re-addition of extracellular Ca2+ was also greater. However, store-operated Ca2+ influx (SOC) elicited by thapsigargin-induced store depletion was not affected by SHIP. These results indicate that the primary target pathway of SHIP is the Ca2+ release from the stores, and that Ca2+ influx by the SOC mechanism is secondarily controlled by the level of Ca2+ in the stores without direct inhibition of SOC. In this way, SHIP may play an important role in ensuring the robust tuning of Ca2+ signaling in B cells.

Abstract
SHIP is an inositol 5' phosphatase that hydrolyzes the PI3'K product PI(3,4,5)P3. We show that SHIP-deficient mice exhibit dramatic chronic hyperplasia of myeloid cells resulting in splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, and myeloid infiltration of vital organs. Neutrophils and bone marrow-derived mast cells from SHIP-/- mice are less susceptible to programmed cell death induced by various apoptotic stimuli or by growth factor withdrawal. Engagement of IL3-R and GM-CSF-R in these cells leads to increased and prolonged PI3'K-dependent PI(3,4,5)P3 accumulation and PKB activation. These data indicate that SHIP is a negative regulator of growth factor-mediated PKB activation and myeloid cell survival.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a devastating neurological disorder characterized by loss of cognitive skills and progressive dementia. The pathological hallmark of AD is the presence of numerous senile plaques throughout the hippocampus and cerebral cortex associated with degenerating axons, neurofibrillary tangles, and gliosis. The core of the senile plaque primarily is composed of the 39-43 amino acid beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta), which forms fibrils of beta-pleated sheets. Although considerable genetic evidence implicates Abeta in the pathogenesis of AD, a direct causal link remains to be established. Senile plaques are foci of local inflammatory processes, as evidenced by the presence of numerous activated microglia and acute phase proteins. Abeta has been shown to elicit inflammatory responses in microglia; however, the intracellular events mediating these effects are largely unknown. We report that exposure of microglia and THP1 monocytes to fibrillar Abeta led to time- and dose-dependent increases in protein tyrosine phosphorylation of a population of proteins similar to that elicited by classical immune stimuli such as immune complexes. The tyrosine kinases Lyn, Syk, and FAK were activated on exposure of microglia and THP1 monocytes to Abeta, resulting in the tyrosine kinase-dependent generation of superoxide radicals. The present data support a role for oxidative damage in the pathogenesis of AD, provide an important mechanistic link between Abeta and the generation of reactive oxygen intermediates, and identify molecular targets for therapeutic intervention in AD.

Abstract
Abstract
Our recent studies revealed that the inositol phosphatase Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) is phosphorylated and associated with Shc exclusively under negative signaling conditions in B cells, which is due to recruitment of the SHIP SH2 domain to the FcγRIIb. In addition, we reported that SHIP-Shc interaction involves both SHIP SH2 and Shc phosphotyrosine binding domains. These findings reveal a paradox in which the single SH2 domain of SHIP is simultaneously engaged to two different proteins: Shc and FcγRIIb. To resolve this paradox, we examined the protein interactions of SHIP. Our results demonstrated that isolated FcγRIIb contains SHIP but not Shc; likewise, Shc isolates contain SHIP but not FcγRIIb. In contrast, SHIP isolates contain both proteins, revealing two separate pools of SHIP: one bound to FcγRIIb and one bound to Shc. Kinetic studies reveal rapid SHIP association with FcγRIIb but slower and more transient association with Shc. Affinity measurements using a recombinant SHIP SH2 domain and phosphopeptides derived from FcγRIIb (corresponding to Y273) and Shc (corresponding to Y317) revealed an approximately equal rate of binding but a 10-fold faster dissociation rate for FcγRIIb compared with Shc phosphopeptide and yielding in an affinity of 2.1 μM for FcγRIIb and 0.26 μM for Shc. These findings are consistent with a model in which SHIP transiently associates with FcγRIIb to promote SHIP phosphorylation, whereupon SHIP binds to Shc and dissociates from FcγRIIb.

Abstract
Abstract
Src homology-2 domain-containing inositol polyphosphate 5′-phosphatase (SHIP) is a recently identified protein that has been implicated as an important signaling molecule. Although SHIP has been shown to participate in the FcγRIIB-mediated inhibitory signal, the functional role of SHIP in activation responses by immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif-bearing receptors such as B cell receptor (BCR) remains unclear. Indeed, it has been proposed that SHIP serves as a linking molecule for the regulation of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathway in BCR signaling, because SHIP associates with Shc. We now report that SHIP-deficient DT40 B cells display enhanced Ca2+ mobilization in response to BCR ligation, whereas extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation is unaffected. This Ca2+ enhancement is due to a sustained intracellular Ca2+ increase or to long-lasting Ca2+ oscillations by loss of SHIP, as revealed by single-cell Ca2+ imaging analysis. These results demonstrate the importance of SHIP in B cell activation by the modulation of Ca2+ mobilization.
