Increased Post-Hypoxic Oxidative Stress and Activation of the PERK Branch of the UPR in Trap1-Deficient Drosophila melanogaster Is Abrogated by Metformin. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms222111586. [PMID: 34769067 PMCID: PMC8583878 DOI: 10.3390/ijms222111586] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 10/21/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypoxia is known to impair mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis. Post-hypoxic perturbations of the ER proteostasis result in the accumulation of misfolded/unfolded proteins leading to the activation of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). Mitochondrial chaperone TNF receptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1) is reported to preserve mitochondrial membrane potential and to impede reactive oxygen species (ROS) production thereby protecting cells from ER stress as well as oxidative stress. The first-line antidiabetic drug Metformin has been attributed a neuroprotective role after hypoxia. Interestingly, Metformin has been reported to rescue mitochondrial deficits in fibroblasts derived from a patient carrying a homozygous TRAP1 loss-of-function mutation. We sought to investigate a putative link between Metformin, TRAP1, and the UPR after hypoxia. We assessed post-hypoxic/reperfusion longevity, mortality, negative geotaxis, ROS production, metabolic activity, gene expression of antioxidant proteins, and activation of the UPR in Trap1-deficient flies. Following hypoxia, Trap1 deficiency caused higher mortality and greater impairments in negative geotaxis compared to controls. Similarly, post-hypoxic production of ROS and UPR activation was significantly higher in Trap1-deficient compared to control flies. Metformin counteracted the deleterious effects of hypoxia in Trap1-deficient flies but had no protective effect in wild-type flies. We provide evidence that TRAP1 is crucially involved in the post-hypoxic regulation of mitochondrial/ER stress and the activation of the UPR. Metformin appears to rescue Trap1-deficiency after hypoxia mitigating ROS production and downregulating the pro-apoptotic PERK (protein kinase R-like ER kinase) arm of the UPR.

Abstract
Since their discovery, heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been identified in all domains of life, which demonstrates their importance and conserved functional role in maintaining protein homeostasis. Mitochondria possess several members of the major HSP sub-families that perform essential tasks for keeping the organelle in a fully functional and healthy state. In humans, the mitochondrial HSP70 chaperone system comprises a central molecular chaperone, mtHSP70 or mortalin (HSPA9), which is actively involved in stabilizing and importing nuclear gene products and in refolding mitochondrial precursor proteins, and three co-chaperones (HSP70-escort protein 1-HEP1, tumorous imaginal disc protein 1-TID-1, and Gro-P like protein E-GRPE), which regulate and accelerate its protein folding functions. In this review, we summarize the roles of mitochondrial molecular chaperones with particular focus on the human mtHsp70 and its co-chaperones, whose deregulated expression, mutations, and post-translational modifications are often considered to be the main cause of neurological disorders, genetic diseases, and malignant growth.

Abstract
The major role of mitochondria is to provide cells with energy, but no less important are their roles in responding to various stress factors and the metabolic changes and pathological processes that might occur inside and outside the cells. The post-translational modification of proteins is a fast and efficient way for cells to adapt to ever changing conditions. Phosphorylation is a post-translational modification that signals these changes and propagates these signals throughout the whole cell, but it also changes the structure, function and interaction of individual proteins. In this review, we summarize the influence of kinases, the proteins responsible for phosphorylation, on mitochondrial biogenesis under various cellular conditions. We focus on their role in keeping mitochondria fully functional in healthy cells and also on the changes in mitochondrial structure and function that occur in pathological processes arising from the phosphorylation of mitochondrial proteins.

Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2020; 318:C289-C303.

Abstract
Glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75) was first characterized in mammals as a heat shock protein-70 (HSP70) family stress chaperone based on its sequence homology. Extensive studies in mammals showed that GRP75 is induced by various stressors such as glucose deprivation, oxidative stress, and hypoxia, although it remained unresponsive to the heat shock. Such investigations are scarce in avian (nonmammalian) species. We here identified chicken GRP75 by using immunoprecipitation assay integrated with LC-MS/MS, and found that its amino acid sequence is conserved with high homology (52.5%) to the HSP70 family. Bioinformatics and 3D-structure prediction indicate that, like most HSPs, chicken GRP75 has two principal domains (the NH2-terminal ATPase and COOH-terminal region). Immunofluorescence staining shows that GRP75 is localized predominantly in the avian myoblast and hepatocyte mitochondria. Heat stress exposure upregulates GRP75 expression in a species-, genotype-, and tissue-specific manner. Overexpression of GRP75 reduces avian cell viability, and blockade of GRP75 by its small molecular inhibitor MKT-077 rescues avian cell viability during heat stress. Taken together, this is the first evidence showing that chicken GRP75, unlike its mammalian ortholog, is responsive to heat shock and plays a key role in cell survival/death pathways. Since modern avian species have high metabolic rates and are sensitive to high environmental temperature, GRP75 could open new vistas in mechanistic understanding of heat stress responses and thermotolerance in avian species.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Since the proteins are involved in many physiological processes in the organisms, modifications of proteins have important outcomes. Protein modifications are classified in several ways and oxidative stress related ones take a wide place. Aging is characterized by the accumulation of oxidized proteins and decreased degradation of these proteins. On the other hand protein turnover is an important regulatory mechanism for the control of protein homeostasis. Heat shock proteins are a highly conserved family of proteins in the various cells and organisms whose expressions are highly inducible during stress conditions. These proteins participate in protein assembly, trafficking, degradation and therefore play important role in protein turnover. Although the entire functions of each heat shock protein are still not completely investigated, these proteins have been implicated in the processes of protection and repair of stress-induced protein damage. This study has focused on the heat stress related carbonylated proteins, as a marker of oxidative protein modification, in young and senescent fibroblasts. The results are discussed with reference to potential involvement of induced heat shock proteins. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Protein Modifications. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE Age-related protein modifications, especially protein carbonylation take a wide place in the literature. In this direction, to highlight the role of heat shock proteins in the oxidative modifications may bring a new aspect to the literature. On the other hand, identified carbonylated proteins in this study confirm the importance of folding process in the mitochondria which will be further analyzed in detail.

Abstract
Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that change in response to extracellular stimuli. These changes are essential for normal mitochondrial/cellular function and are controlled by a tight balance between two antagonistic pathways that promote fusion and fission. Although some molecules have been identified to mediate the mitochondrial fusion and fission process, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1) is a mitochondrial molecule that regulates a variety of mitochondrial functions. Here, we examined the role of TRAP1 in the regulation of morphology. Stable TRAP1 knockdown cells showed abnormal mitochondrial morphology, and we observed significant decreases in dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) and mitochondrial fission factor (Mff), mitochondrial fission proteins. Similar results were obtained by transient knockdown of TRAP1 in two different cell lines, SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells and KNS-42 glioma cells. However, TRAP1 knockdown did not affect expression levels of fusion proteins. The reduction in Drp1 and Mff protein levels was rescued following treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132. These results suggest that TRAP1 regulates the expression of fission proteins and controls mitochondrial fusion/fission, which affects mitochondrial/cellular function.

Abstract
Bax inhibitor-1 (BI-1) is an anti-apoptotic protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The role of BI-1 has been studied in different physiopathological models including ischemia, diabetes, liver regeneration and cancer. However, fundamental knowledge about the effects of BI-1 deletion on the proteome is lacking. To further explore this protein, we compared the levels of different proteins in bi-1 (-/-) and bi-1 (+/+) mouse tissues by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry (MS). In several bi-1 (-/-) mice, glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75/mortalin/ PBP74/mthsp70), peroxiredoxin6 (Prx6) and fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) showed a pI shift that could be attributed to post-translational modifications. Selenium-binding protein 2 (SBP2) and ferritin light chain 1 levels were significantly increased. Phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein-1 (PEBP-1) was dramatically decreased in bi-1 (-/-) mice, which was confirmed by Western blotting. The phosphorylation of GRP75, Prx6 and FAH were compared between bi-1 (+/+) and bi-1 (-/-) mice using liver tissue lysates. Of these three proteins, only one exhibited modified phosphorylation; Tyr phosphorylation of Prx6 was increased in bi-1 (-/-) mice. Our protein profiling results provide fundamental knowledge about the physiopathological function of BI-1.

Abstract
Glucose-regulated protein 94 is the HSP90-like protein in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum and therefore it chaperones secreted and membrane proteins. It has essential functions in development and physiology of multicellular organisms, at least in part because of this unique clientele. GRP94 shares many biochemical features with other HSP90 proteins, in particular its domain structure and ATPase activity, but also displays distinct activities, such as calcium binding, necessitated by the conditions in the endoplasmic reticulum. GRP94's mode of action varies from the general HSP90 theme in the conformational changes induced by nucleotide binding, and in its interactions with co-chaperones, which are very different from known cytosolic co-chaperones. GRP94 is more selective than many of the ER chaperones and the basis for this selectivity remains obscure. Recent development of molecular tools and functional assays has expanded the spectrum of clients that rely on GRP94 activity, but it is still not clear how the chaperone binds them, or what aspect of folding it impacts. These mechanistic questions and the regulation of GRP94 activity by other proteins and by post-translational modification differences pose new questions and present future research avenues. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP90).

Abstract
3,5-Diiodo-l-thyronine (T2) powerfully reduces adiposity in rats fed a high-fat diet (HFD), stimulating (in the liver) fatty acid oxidation and mitochondrial uncoupling, and strongly counteracting steatosis, a condition commonly associated with diet-induced obesity. Proteomics offer unique possibilities for the investigation of changes in the levels and modifications of proteins. Here, combining 2D-E, mass spectrometry, and blue native (BN) PAGE, we studied how the subcellular hepatic phenotype responds to HFD and T2-treatment. By identifying differentially expressed proteins and analyzing their interrelation [using the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) platform], we obtained an integrated view of the phenotypic/metabolic adaptations occurring in the liver proteome during HFD with or without T2-treatment. Interestingly, T2 counteracted several HFD-induced changes, mostly in mitochondria. BN-PAGE and subsequent in-gel activity analysis of OXPHOS complexes revealed a modified profile of individual complexes in HFD mitochondria vs. normal ones. This pattern was re-normalized in mitochondria from T2-treated HFD animals. These data indicate that in HFD rats, the effects of T2 on the liver proteome cause it to resemble that associated with a non-steatotic condition. The identified metabolic pathways (mainly at the mitochondrial level) may be responsible for the beneficial effects of T2 on liver adiposity and metabolism.

Abstract
To explore possible relationships between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) polymorphism and the expression levels of stress-responder nuclear genes we assembled five cybrid cell lines by repopulating 143B.TK(-) cells, depleted of their own mtDNA (Rho(0) cells), with foreign mitochondria with different mtDNA sequences (lines H, J, T, U, X). We evaluated, at both basal and under heat stress conditions, gene expression (mRNA) and intra-mitochondrial protein levels of HSP60 and HSP75, two key components in cellular stress response. At basal conditions, the levels of HSP60 and HSP75 mRNA were lower in one cybrid (H) than in the others (p = 0.005 and p = 0.001, respectively). Under stress conditions, the H line over-expressed both genes, so that the inter-cybrid difference was abolished. Moreover, the HSP60 intra-mitochondrial protein levels differed among the cybrid lines (p = 0.001), with levels higher in H than in the other cybrid lines. On the whole, our results provide further experimental evidence that mtDNA variability influences the cell response to stressful conditions by modulating components involved in this response. Sentence summary of the article: the results reported in the present study provide important experimental evidence that in human cells mtDNA variability is able to influence the cellular response to heat stress by modulating both the transcription of genes involved in this response and their intra-mitochondrial protein levels.

Abstract
Mitochondria are known to be central to the cell's response to ischemia, because of their role in energy generation, in free radical generation, and in the regulation of apoptosis. Heat shock protein 75 (Hsp75/Grp75/mortalin/TRAP1) is a member of the HSP70 chaperone family, which is targeted to mitochondria. Overexpression of Hsp75 was achieved in rat brain by DNA transfection, and expression was observed in both astrocytes and neurons. Rats were subjected to 100 mins middle cerebral artery occlusion followed by assessment of infarct volume, neurological score, mitochondrial function, and levels of oxidative stress at 24 h reperfusion. Overexpression of Hsp75 reduced infarct area from 44.6%+/-21.1% to 25.7%+/-12.1% and improved neurological outcome significantly. This was associated with improved mitochondrial function as shown by protection of complex IV activity, marked reduction of free radical generation detected by hydroethidine fluorescence, reduction of lipid peroxidation detected by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenol immunoreactivity, and increased preservation of ATP levels. This suggests that targeting mitochondria for protection may be a useful strategy to reduce ischemic brain injury.

Abstract
The endoplasmic-reticulum chaperone Grp94 is required for the cell surface export of molecules involved in the native immune response, in mesoderm induction and muscle development, but the signals responsible for Grp94 recruitment are still obscure. Here we show for the first time that Grp94 undergoes Tyr-phosphorylation in differentiating myogenic C2C12 cells. By means of phospho-proteomic and immunoprecipitation analyses, and the use of Src-specific inhibitors we demonstrate that the Src-tyrosine-kinase Fyn becomes active early after induction of C2C12 cell differentiation, in parallel with the recruitment and the Tyr-phosphorylation of Grp94, which peaks at 6-hour differentiation. Grp94 is Tyr-phosphorylated inside the endoplasmic reticulum by a lumenal Fyn, as indicated by fluorescence and electronmicroscopy immunolocalization, co-immunoprecipitation after chemical cross-linking and by treatment of intact endoplasmic-reticulum vesicles with proteinase K. Furthermore, fractionation of cellular membrane compartments and double-immunofluorescence studies showed that Tyr-phosphorylation of Grp94 is necessary for the protein translocation from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. These results indicate that Fyn-catalyzed Tyr-phosphorylation of Grp94 is an event required to promote the chaperone export from the endoplasmic reticulum occurring in the early phase of myoblast differentiation.

Abstract
Mitochondrial heat shock protein 70 (mtHsp70/Hsp75/Grp75/mortalin/TRAP-1/PBP74) is an essential mitochondrial chaperone and a member of the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) family. Although many studies have shown the protective properties of overexpression of the cytosolic inducible member of the HSP70 family, Hsp72, few studies have investigated the protective potential of Hsp75 against ischemic injury. Mitochondria are one of the primary targets of ischemic injury in astrocytes. In this study, we analyzed the effects of Hsp75 overexpression on cellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP levels, and viability during the ischemia-like conditions of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) or glucose deprivation (GD) in primary astrocytic cultures. We show that Hsp75 overexpression decreases ROS production and preserves mitochondrial membrane potential during GD, and preserves ATP levels and cell viability during OGD. These findings indicate that Hsp75 can provide protection against ischemia-like in vitro injury and suggest that it should be further studied as a potential candidate for protection against ischemic injury.

Abstract
Egr1 (Zif268) is an immediate early gene encoding an inducible transcription factor involved in synaptic plasticity and several forms of memory in rodents. Using 2-DE and MS, we compared proteomes of hippocampal subregions and cortex in Egr1-deficient and wild-type littermates. Two significant differences were identified: a shift in the pI of the molecular chaperone mortalin (mtHsp70/PBP74/Grp75) and the apparent disappearance of histidyl tRNA synthetase (HisRS). We found that the pI shift for mortalin in Egr1-deficient mice was caused by a difference in protein sequence: D626G. Using cDNA sequencing, we demonstrated for both mortalin and HisRS that protein differences were not due to a lack of Egr1 but to DNA polymorphism between the C57Bl/6J and 129/Sv strains used to generate the Egr1-deficient mice. Our results show that mortalin and HisRS genes, which map closely to the Egr1 locus, have conserved the 129/Sv haplotype despite numerous back-crossing of the null mice progeny with C57Bl/6J animals. This demonstrates that allelic differences between mouse strains can introduce variations in differential proteomic analyses of genetically modified organisms. Finally, we report the identification of new isoforms of HisRS and mortalin (mot-3) encoded by the 129/Sv haplotype.

Abstract
Mortalin is a chaperone protein associated with cell survival, stress response, intracellular trafficking, control of cell proliferation, mitochondrial biogenesis, and cell fate determination. Human APOE targeted replacement (TR) mice have been used to elucidate the role of APOE4 in Alzheimer's disease (AD), since these animals express the APOE4 gene without the classical pathological signatures of AD. Using proteomics we found that mortalin isoforms are differentially expressed in the hippocampus of APOE4 TR mice compared with the APOE3 (control) TR mice. We also observed that these mortalin isoforms are differentially phosphorylated. Then we studied mortalin expression in patients with AD (genotypes APOE 3/3 and APOE 4/4) compared with patients without AD (genotype APOE 3/3). We observed that mortalin isoforms are also differentially expressed in the hippocampi of patients with AD, and that the expression of these mortalin isoforms is regulated by the APOE genotype. We propose that the differential regulation of mortalin in AD and by the APOE genotype is a cellular defense mechanism responding to increases in oxidative stress.

Abstract
Abnormal amplification of centrosomes, commonly found in human cancer, is the major cause of mitotic defects and chromosome instability in cancer cells. Like DNA, centrosomes duplicate once in each cell cycle, hence the defect in the mechanism that ensures centrosome duplication to occur once and only once in each cell cycle results in abnormal amplification of centrosomes and mitotic defects. Centrosomes are non-membranous organelles, and undergo dynamic changes in its constituents during the centrosome duplication cycle. Through a comparative mass spectrometric analysis of unduplicated and duplicated centrosomes, we identified mortalin, a member of heat shock protein family, as a protein that associates preferentially with duplicated centrosomes. Further analysis revealed that mortalin localized to centrosomes in late G1 before centrosome duplication, remained at centrosomes during S and G2, and dissociated from centrosomes during mitosis. Overexpression of mortalin overrides the p53-dependent suppression of centrosome duplication, and mortalin-driven centrosome duplication requires physical interaction between mortalin and p53. Moreover, mortalin promotes dissociation of p53 from centrosomes through physical interaction. The p53 mutant that lacks the ability to bind to mortalin remains at centrosomes, and suppresses centrosome duplication in a transactivation function-independent manner. Thus, our present findings not only identify mortalin as an upstream molecule of p53 but also provide evidence for the involvement of centrosomally localized p53 in the regulation of centrosome duplication.

Abstract
Pomiferin, a prenylated isoflavonoid from Derris malaccensis with strong anti-fungal and anti-oxidant activities, showed cytotoxic activity towards human cholangiocarcinoma cells (HuCCA-1), with IC(50) of 0.9 microg/mL. Pomiferin caused apoptosis, detectable by DNA fragmentation. Two-dimensional PAGE showed increased expression of 12 proteins, namely glucose-regulated protein 75 (grp 75), calcyclin (S100A6), degraded cytokeratin 19, ATP synthase D, ribosomal protein P0, degraded cytokeratin 18 (two spots pI/MW 6.03/29.9 and pI/MW 4.66/21.5), cofilin, annexin A1, triose phosphate isomerase, peroxiredoxin-1, calgizzarin, and profilin. In contrast, cytokeratins (CK) 7, 18 and 19 were down-regulated, and were shown by 1-DE immunodetection to be degraded.

Abstract
In the past 1.5 billion years, mitochondria have evolved from oxygen-scavenging bacterial symbionts into primary control centers for energy production and cellular life-and-death processes in eukaryotes. This maturation of mitochondrial function has necessitated the coevolution of various mechanisms of communication with the rest of the cell. Emerging evidence indicates that reversible phosphorylation, the most prevalent form of cellular posttranslational modification, is an important and largely overlooked means of regulating mitochondrial functions. The steadily increasing number of reported mitochondrial kinases, phosphatases and phosphoproteins suggests that phosphorylation is likely to emerge as a common theme in the regulation of mitochondrial processes.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been traditionally regarded as toxic by-products of aerobic metabolism. However, ROS also act as intracellular signaling molecules and can mediate phenotypes in vascular endothelial cells, which may be physiological or pathological in nature. To clarify the molecular mechanisms of ROS signaling, we examined hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-responsive proteins in cultured human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMVEC) using proteomic tools. Protein expression in HMVEC was studied after they had been exposed to low- and high-levels of H(2)O(2) for various times, and intracellular ROS production was examined by flow cytometer and UV spectrophotometer. Proteins obtained from dose- and time-dependent series were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and tentatively identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption-time of flight mass spectrometry, by matching the tryptic mass maps obtained with entries in the NCBI and Swiss-Prot protein sequence database. At least 163 proteins were changed by H(2)O(2), and 60 proteins were identified. Oxidative stress triggered dramatic change in the expression of proteins in primary microvessel endothelial cells, and their mapping to cellular process provided a view of the ubiquitous cellular changes elicited by H(2)O(2). These results could provide a framework for the understanding of the mechanisms of cellular redox homeostasis and H(2)O(2) metabolism in microendothelium environment in various biological processes as well as pathological conditions.

Abstract
Glucose regulated protein 75 (GRP75) is an important molecular chaperon belonged to the heat shock protein (HSP) family. To evaluate the effect of GRP75 overexpression on PC12 cells under glucose deprivation, cell viability and mitochondrial function of GRP75-overexpressing PC12 cells and the vector transfected control PC12 cells were monitored during glucose deprivation. Upon exposure to glucose deprivation, GRP75-overexpressing PC12 cells exhibited more moderate cell damage than control PC12 cells. Both of the two groups of cells showed a decreased ATP level following an early increase in the condition of glucose deprivation, and the mitochondrial potential were also reduced in the similar manner in the two groups of cells. Control PC12 cells showed an immediate and rapid increase in ROS accumulation after the onset of GD treatment, and this accumulation was slowed and reduced in GRP75-overexpressing PC12 cells. These findings suggested that GRP75 could inhibit the ROS accumulation, and it may be associated with the cytoprotective effect of GRP75 overexpression upon glucose deprivation.

Abstract
Mitochondria are multifunctional organelles that participate in a range of cellular processes such as energy production, proliferation, death, and senescence. The involvement of mitochondria in such distinct aspects of cell life requires the existence of an integrated system of signals that enter and exit the organelle according to the diverse needs of the cell. The recent discovery of several protein kinases and phosphatases that localize partially or predominantly inside mitochondria opens new perspectives into the regulation of these signals. This review focuses on tyrosine phosphorylation in mitochondria. A description of the protein tyrosine kinases and phosphatases which regulate this process along with the mitochondrial tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins identified to date is followed by a discussion of the possible involvement of tyrosine phosphorylation in mitochondrial signaling and future perspectives for developments in this emerging field.

Abstract
We demonstrated previously that exposure of CCL39 lung fibroblasts to alpha-thrombin rapidly inhibits interleukin 6-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (Stat3). While studying the cross-talk between alpha-thrombin and interleukin 6, we observed that the phospho-specific (tyrosine) anti-Stat3 antibody specifically cross-reacted with a 74-78-kDa protein(s) in alpha-thrombin-treated cells. In this study, we demonstrate that in alpha-thrombin-treated CCL39 cells, the 74-78-kDa protein(s) rapidly undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation. The phosphorylation by alpha-thrombin was detected as early as 5 min and reached a maximum at 15 min; however, low levels were present at 2 h. alpha-Thrombin receptor agonist peptide (SFLLRN) induced its tyrosine phosphorylation, suggesting that alpha-thrombin mediates the effects via protease-activated receptor type 1. Anti-Stat3 antibodies specific to different regions of Stat3 failed to recognize the 74-78-kDa protein(s), suggesting that it is unrelated to Stat3. Cell fractionation experiments showed that it is localized to the cytoplasm. Mass spectrometric analysis of the immunoprecipitated protein showed that the 74-78-kDa protein(s) is related to glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP-75), a member of the heat shock/stress-response protein family. Consistent with these data, we observed tyrosine phosphorylation of GRP-75 in alpha-thrombin-treated cells. Exposure of cells to pervanadate, a stress-inducing agent, stimulated its tyrosine phosphorylation; however, cytokines and growth factors were ineffective. This is the first report of tyrosine phosphorylation of GRP-75-related stress protein(s) by alpha-thrombin and suggests that this pathway may contribute to the ability of alpha-thrombin to prevent apoptosis in cells exposed to stress or in the injured tissue.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) superfamily is a large group of enzymes showing a wide diversity of structure and biological functions. Their implication in the regulation of signal transduction processes is critical for homeostasis and efficient cellular activation. Disturbance of the delicate balance between protein tyrosine kinase and protein tyrosine phosphatase activities is at the heart of a large number of diseases. Control of cellular activation is especially important for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) since this retrovirus requires activated T cells in order to replicate efficiently. Identification of PTPs implicated in signaling pathways leading to upregulation of HIV-1 gene transcription therefore contributes to the general understanding of cellular factors needed for strong HIV-1 replication and progression to AIDS. The use of bisperoxovanadium compounds as potent, specific, and highly purified PTP inhibitors releases HIV-1 from PTP control and strongly increases HIV-1 gene expression. These inhibitors can thus be used to study signal transduction mechanisms regulated by PTP activity that are important for HIV-1 replication and provide new and interesting therapeutic avenues for the efficient control of this debilitating retroviral infection.

Abstract
Analysis of protein phosphorylation in highly purified rat brain mitochondria revealed the presence of several alkali-stable phosphoproteins whose phosphorylation markedly increases upon treatment with peroxovanadate and Mn(2+), a property indicating tyrosine phosphorylation. These include three prominent bands, with apparent sizes of 50, 60, and 75 kDa, which are detectable by anti-phosphotyrosine. Tyrosine phosphorylation disappears when mitochondria are treated with PP2, an inhibitor of the Src kinase family, suggesting the presence of members of this family in rat brain mitochondria. Immunoblotting and immunoprecipitation assays of mitochondrial lysates confirmed the presence of Fyn, Src and Lyn kinases, as well as Csk, a protein kinase which negatively controls the activity of the Src kinase family. Results show that tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins are membrane-bound and that they are located on the inner surface of the outer membrane and/or the external surface of the inner membrane. Instead, Src tyrosine kinases are mainly located in the intermembrane space - in particular, as revealed by immunogold experiments for Lyn kinase, in the cristal lumen. Rat brain mitochondria were also found to possess a marked level of tyrosine phosphatase activity, strongly inhibited by peroxovanadate.

Abstract
The ror receptors are a highly conserved family of receptor tyrosine kinases genetically implicated in the establishment of cellular polarity. We have cloned a ror receptor from the marine mollusk Aplysia californica. Aplysia ror (Apror) is expressed in most developing neurons and some adult neuronal populations, including the neuroendocrine bag-cell neurons. The Apror protein is present in peripheral neuronal processes and ganglionic neuropil, implicating the kinase in the regulation of growth and/or synaptic events. In cultured bag-cell neurons, the majority of the protein is stored in intracellular organelles, whereas only a small fraction is expressed on the surface. When expressed on the cell surface, the protein is clustered on neurites, suggesting that Apror is involved in the organization of functional domains within neurons. Apror immunoreactivity partially colocalizes with the P-type calcium channel BC-alpha1A at bag-cell neuron varicosities, suggesting a role for Apror in organizing neuropeptide release sites.

Abstract
We previously reported that endogenously expressed, intracellularly localized fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-1 interacts with mortalin. Here we report that FGF-1 added to the culture medium of quiescent BALB/c3T3 cells is taken up by the cells and interacts with mortalin in the cells in a regulated manner. Although both the internalized FGF-1 and mortalin were present at high levels throughout the FGF-1-initiated cell cycle, their interaction became apparent only in late G1 phase. Interestingly, mortalin was preferentially tyrosine phosphorylated at the same time, and when its normally weak phosphorylation in early G1 phase was augmented by treating the cells with vanadate, a strong interaction between mortalin and FGF-1 was established. Conversely, when phosphorylated mortalin was treated with tyrosine phosphatase, its interaction with FGF-1 was abrogated. These results indicate that FGF-1 taken up by cells preferentially interacts with mortalin in late G1 phase of the cell cycle, and that tyrosine phosphorylation of mortalin regulates this interaction.

Abstract
The interaction of cells with the extracellular matrix regulates cell adhesion, motility, growth, survival and differentiation through integrin-mediated signal transduction. Here we demonstrate that galectin-8, a secreted mammalian (beta)-galactoside binding protein, inhibits adhesion of human carcinoma (1299) cells to plates coated with integrin ligands, and induces cell apoptosis. Pretreatment of the cells with Mn(2+), which increases the affinity of integrins for their ligands, abolished the inhibitory effects of galectin-8. The inhibitory effects of galectin-8 were specific and were not mimicked by plant lectins or other galectins (galectin-1 and galectin-3). In accordance with its anti-adhesive effects, transfection of galectin-8 cDNA into 1299 cells significantly reduced (by 75%) colony formation, when compared to the number of colonies formed by cells transfected with an empty vector. Affinity chromatography over immobilized galectin-8 indicated that few membrane proteins interacted with galectin-8 in a sugar-dependent manner. Microsequencing and western immunoblotting revealed that (alpha)(3)(beta)(1)integrin derived from 1299 as well as other cells (e.g. HeLa and human endothelial cells) is a major galectin-8 binding-protein. Furthermore, immunoprecipitation and immunohistochemical studies suggested that endogenous galectin-8, secreted from 1299 cells, forms complexes with (alpha)(3)(beta)(1) integrins expressed on the surface of 1299 cells. Galectin-8 also interacts with other members of the integrin family, like (alpha)(6)(beta)(1)integrins. In contrast, galectin-8 only minimally interacts with (alpha)(4)or (beta)(3)integrins. We propose that galectin-8 is an integrin binding-protein that interacts to a different extent with several, but not all members of the integrin family. Binding of galectin-8 modulates integrin interactions with the extracellular matrix and thus regulates cell adhesion and cell survival.

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

Abstract
The identification of genes whose expression is altered following exposure to a low dose of ionizing radiation (IR) is an important step in understanding the phenomenon of the adaptive response. Using the differential mRNA display method we have identified a gene whose expression is up-regulated following exposure to 0.25 Gy IR. Partial DNA sequence and restriction endonuclease analysis of this gene showed that it is identical to the gene encoding for the human peptide-binding protein 74 (PBP74/mortalin/Grp75), a member of the heat shock 70 protein family. Time-course measurement of the PBP74/mortalin/Grp75 mRNA showed that its level was elevated after a lag of at least 15 min. The maximum induction appears to be at 30 min following gamma-irradiation and there is then a steady decline to control levels within 5 h in the HT29 cell line. On the other hand, the level of the PBP74/mortalin/Grp75 mRNA in the human breast adenocarcinoma cell line MCF-7 is consistently elevated after gamma-irradiation for up to 6 h post-irradiation. Furthermore, a cell line that does not demonstrate the induced radioresistance phenomenon (SW48) shows no induction of the PBP74/mortalin/Grp75 mRNA in contrast with HT29 or MCF-7. Treatment of the HT29 cells with antisense oligonucleotide directed towards the initiation codon of PBP74 sensitized cells to ionizing radiation.

Abstract
Phosphorylation/dephosphorylation events in human blood platelets were investigated during their adhesion to collagen under flow conditions. Using 32P-labeled platelets and one-dimensional gel electrophoresis, we found that adhesion to collagen mediated primarily by the α2β1 integrin resulted in a strong dephosphorylation of several protein bands. Neither adhesion to polylysine nor thrombin-induced aggregation caused similar protein dephosphorylation. In addition, treatment with okadaic acid (OA), an inhibitor of serine/threonine protein phosphatases type 1 (PP1) and 2A (PP2A), caused significant inhibition of adhesion, suggesting that adhesion is regulated by OA-sensitive phosphatases. Recent studies indicate that phosphatases may be associated with the heat-shock proteins. Immunoprecipitations with antibodies against either the heat-shock cognate protein 70 (hsc70) or heat-shock protein 90 (hsp90) showed the presence of a phosphoprotein complex in 32P-labeled, resting human platelets. Antibody probing of this complex detected hsc70, hsp90, two isoforms of the catalytic subunit of PP1, PP1Cα and PP1Cδ, as well as the M regulatory subunit of PP1 (PP1M). OA, at concentrations that markedly blocked platelet adhesion to collagen, caused hyperphosphorylation of the hsc70 complex. In platelets adhering to collagen, hsc70 was completely dephosphorylated and hsp90, PP1α, and PP1M were dissociated from the complex, suggesting involvement of heat-shock proteins and protein phosphatases in platelet adhesion.
