Abstract
The isatin group is widespread in nature and is considered to be a privileged building block for drug discovery. In order to develop novel SHP1 inhibitors with fluorescent properties as tools for SHP1 biology research, this work designed and synthesized a series of isatin derivatives. The presentive compound 5a showed good inhibitory activity against SHP1PTP with IC50 of 11 ± 3 μM, displayed about 92% inhibitory rate against MV-4-11 cell proliferation at the concentration of 20 μM, exhibited suitable fluorescent properties with a long emission wavelength and a large Stokes shift, and presented blue fluorescent imaging in HeLa cells with low cytotoxicity. This study could offer chemical tool to further understand SHP1 biology and develop novel SHP1 inhibitors in therapy.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are the group of enzymes that control both cellular activity and the dephosphorylation of tyrosine (Tyr)-phosphorylated proteins. Dysregulation of PTP1B has contributed to numerous diseases including Diabetes Mellitus, Alzheimer's disease, and obesity rendering PTP1B as a legitimate target for therapeutic applications. It is highly challenging to target this enzyme because of its highly conserved and positively charged active-site pocket motivating researchers to find novel lead compounds against it. The present work makes use of an integrated approach combining ligand-based and structure-based virtual screening to find hit compounds targeting PTP1B. Initially, pharmacophore modeling was performed to find common features like two hydrogen bond acceptors, an aromatic ring and one hydrogen bond donor from the potent PTP1B inhibitors. The dataset of compounds matching with the common pharmacophoric features was filtered to remove Pan-Assay Interference substructure and to match the Lipinski criteria. Then, compounds were further prioritized using molecular docking and top fifty compounds with good binding affinity were selected for absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) predictions. The top five compounds with high solubility, absorption and permeability holding score of - 10 to - 9.3 kcal/mol along with Ertiprotafib were submitted to all-atom molecular dynamic (MD) studies. The MD studies and binding free energy calculations showed that compound M4, M5 and M8 were having better binding affinity for PTP1B enzyme with ∆Gtotal score of - 24.25, - 31.47 and - 33.81 kcal/mol respectively than other compounds indicating that compound M8 could be a suitable lead compound as PTP1B inhibitor.

Abstract
Dynamics-driven allostery provides important insights into the working mechanics of proteins, especially enzymes. In this study, we employ this paradigm to answer a basic question: in enzyme superfamilies, where the catalytic mechanism, active sites, and protein fold are conserved, what accounts for the difference in the catalytic prowess of the individual members? We show that when subtle changes in sequence do not translate to changes in structure, they do translate to changes in dynamics. We use sequentially diverse PTP1B, TbPTP1, and YopH as representatives of the conserved protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) superfamily. Using amino acid network analysis of group behavior (community analysis) and influential node dominance on networks (eigenvector centrality), we explain the dynamic basis of the catalytic variations seen between the three proteins. Importantly, we explain how a dynamics-based blueprint makes PTP1B amenable to allosteric control and how the same is abstracted in TbPTP1 and YopH.

Abstract
The Src homology 2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 1 (SHP1) is a convergent node for oncogenic cell-signaling cascades. Consequently, SHP1 represents a potential target for drug development in cancer treatment. The development of efficient methods for rapidly tracing and modulating the SHP1 activity in complex biological systems is of considerable significance for advancing the integration of diagnosis and treatment of the related disease. Thus, we designed and synthesized a series of imidazo[1,2,4] triazole derivatives containing salicylic acid to explore novel scaffolds with inhibitory activities and good fluorescence properties for SHP1. The photophysical properties and inhibitory activities of these imidazo[1,2,4] triazole derivatives (5a-5y) against SHP1PTP were thoroughly studied from the theoretical simulation and experimental application aspects. The representative compound 5p exhibited remarkable fluorescence response (P: 0.002) with fluorescence quantum yield (QY) of 0.37 and inhibitory rate of 85.21 ± 5.17% against SHP1PTP at the concentration of 100 μM. Furthermore, compound 5p showed obvious aggregation caused quenching (ACQ) effect and had high selectivity for Fe3+ ions, good anti-interference and relatively low detection limit (5.55 μM). Finally, the cellular imaging test of compound 5p also exhibited good biocompatibility and certain potential biological imaging application. This study provides a potential way to develop molecules with fluorescent properties and bioactivities for SHP1.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation are key regulatory mechanisms in eukaryotes. Protein tyrosine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation are catalyzed by protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), respectively. The combinatorial action of both PTKs and PTPs is essential for properly maintaining cellular functions. In this unit, we discuss different novel methods to identify PTP substrates. PTPs depend on specific invariant residues that enable binding to tyrosine-phosphorylated substrates and aid catalytic activity. Identifying PTP substrates has paved the way to understanding their role in distinct intracellular signaling pathways. Due to their high specific activity, the interaction between PTPs and their substrates is transient; therefore, identifying the physiological substrates of PTPs has been challenging. To identify the physiological substrates of PTPs, various PTP mutants have been generated. These PTP mutants, named "substrate-trapping mutants," lack catalytic activity but bind tightly to their tyrosine-phosphorylated substrates. Identifying the substrates for the PTPs will provide critical insight into the function of physiological and pathophysiological signal transduction. In this chapter, we describe interaction assays used to identify the PTP substrates.

Abstract
The zebrafish is an ideal model for functional analysis of genes at the molecular, protein, cell, organ, and organism levels. We have used zebrafish to analyze the function of members of the protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) superfamily for more than two decades. The molecular genetic toolbox has significantly improved over the years. Currently, generating mutant lines that lack the function of a PTP gene is relatively straightforward by CRISPR/Cas9 technology-mediated generation of insertions or deletions in the target gene. In addition, generating point mutations using CRISPR/Cas9 technology and homology-directed repair (HDR) is feasible, albeit the success rate could be higher. Here, we describe the methods, including the tips and tricks, that we have used to generate knock-out and knock-in zebrafish lines in PTP genes successfully.

Abstract
Nonsense mutations generating premature termination codons (PTCs) in various genes are frequently associated with somatic cancer and hereditary human diseases since PTCs commonly generate truncated proteins with defective or altered function. Induced translational readthrough during protein biosynthesis facilitates the incorporation of an amino acid at the position of a PTC, allowing the synthesis of a complete protein. This may evade the pathological effect of the PTC mutation and provide new therapeutic opportunities. Several protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) genes are targeted by PTC in human disease, the tumor suppressor PTEN being the more prominent paradigm. Here, using PTEN and laforin as examples, two PTPs from the dual-specificity phosphatase subfamily, we describe methodologies to analyze in silico the distribution and frequency of pathogenic PTC in PTP genes. We also summarize laboratory protocols and technical notes to study the induced translational readthrough reconstitution of the synthesis of PTP targeted by PTC in association with disease in cellular models.

Abstract
Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) are a group of neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) characterized by difficulties in social interaction and communication, repetitive behavior, and restricted interests. ASD has proven to have a strong genetic component. However, defining causal genes is still one of the main challenges in GWAS, since the vast majority (>90%) of detected signals lie within the non-coding genome. Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) colocalization analysis determines whether a specific variant is responsible for both a local eQTL and GWAS association and has helped leverage data and rendering gene discovery for a wide array of diseases. Here we further mine the largest ASD GWAS performed to date (18,381 cases and 27,969 controls) altogether with GWAS summary statistics from the main PGC studies (Schizophrenia, MD (Major Depression) and ADHD (Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder)), by using eQTpLot, a newly developed tool that illustrates the colocalization of GWAS and eQTL signals in a locus, and the enrichment of and correlation between the candidate gene eQTLs and trait-significant variants. This analysis points up 8 genes with a significant eQTL colocalization signal in ASD (CRHR1, KANSL1, MANBA, MAPT, MMP12, NKX2-2, PTPRE and WNT3) and one gene (SRPK2) with a marginally significant colocalization signal (r = 0.69, p < 1 × 10-6), and specifically highlights the potentially causal role of MAPT (r = 0.76, p < 1 × 10-6), NKX2-2 (r = 0.71, p-value = 2.26-02) and PTPRE (r = 0.97, p-value = 2.63-04) when restricting the analysis to brain tissue.

Abstract
Background Gastric cancer (GC) is among the deadliest diseases with countless incidences and deaths each year. Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is the primary type of microbe that colonizes the stomach. In recent years, increasing evidence has demonstrated that Hp infection is one of the main risk factors for GC. Elucidating the molecular mechanism of how Hp leads to GC will not only benefit the treatment of GC, but also boost the development of therapeutics for other gastric disorders caused by Hp infection. In this study, we aimed to identify innate immunity-related genes in GC and investigate their potentials as prognostic markers and therapeutic targets for Hp-related GC. Methods Firstly, we analyzed the differentially expressed innate immunity-related genes in GC samples from the TCGA database. Then prognostic correlation analysis was carried out to explore the prognostic value of these candidate genes. By combing transcriptome data, somatic mutation data, and clinical data, co-expression analysis, functional enrichment analysis, tumor mutational burden analysis, and immune infiltration analysis were performed to reveal the pathological relevance of the candidate gene. Finally, ceRNA network was constructed to identify the genes and pathways for the regulation of the candidate gene. Results We revealed that protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 20 (PTPN20) is a significant prognostic marker in Hp-related GC. Thus, PTPN20 levels have the potential to efficiently predict the survival of Hp-related GC patients. In addition, PTPN20 is associated with immune cell infiltration and tumor mutation burden in these GC patients. Moreover, we have also identified PTPN20-related genes, PTPN20 protein-protein interactions, and the PTPN20 ceRNA network. Conclusion Our data suggest that PTPN20 may have critical functions in Hp-related GC. Targeting PTPN20 may be a promising way to treat Hp-related GC.

Abstract
The identification of substrates for protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) is critical for a complete understanding of how these enzymes function. In a recent study in the JBC, Bonham et al. developed a modified method combining substrate-trapping mutations with proximity-labeling MS to identify the protein substrates and interactors of PTP1B. This method revealed interaction networks in breast cancer cell models and discovered novel targets of PTP1B that regulate HER2 signaling pathways. This strategy represents a versatile new tool for identifying the functional interactions between PTPs and their substrates.

Abstract
The ability to define functional interactions between enzymes and their substrates is crucial for understanding biological control mechanisms; however, such methods face challenges in the transient nature and low stoichiometry of enzyme-substrate interactions. Now, we have developed an optimized strategy that couples substrate-trapping mutagenesis to proximity-labeling mass spectrometry for quantitative analysis of protein complexes involving the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTP1B. This methodology represents a significant shift from classical schemes; it is capable of being performed at near-endogenous expression levels and increasing stoichiometry of target enrichment without a requirement for stimulation of supraphysiological tyrosine phosphorylation levels or maintenance of substrate complexes during lysis and enrichment procedures. Advantages of this new approach are illustrated through application to PTP1B interaction networks in models of HER2-positive and Herceptin-resistant breast cancer. We have demonstrated that inhibitors of PTP1B significantly reduced proliferation and viability in cell-based models of acquired and de novo Herceptin resistance in HER2-positive breast cancer. Using differential analysis, comparing substrate-trapping to wild-type PTP1B, we have identified multiple unreported protein targets of PTP1B with established links to HER2-induced signaling and provided internal validation of method specificity through overlap with previously identified substrate candidates. Overall, this versatile approach can be readily integrated with evolving proximity-labeling platforms (TurboID, BioID2, etc.), and is broadly applicable across all PTP family members for the identification of conditional substrate specificities and signaling nodes in models of human disease.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) represents almost 80% of all liver cancers, is the sixth most common cancer and is the second‑highest cause of cancer‑related deaths worldwide. Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), which are encoded by the largest family of phosphatase genes, play critical roles in cellular responses and are implicated in various signaling pathways. Moreover, PTPs are dysregulated and involved in various cellular processes in numerous cancers, including HCC. Kinases and phosphatases are coordinators that modulate cell activities and regulate signaling responses. There are multiple interacting signaling networks, and coordination of these signaling networks in response to a stimulus determines the physiological outcome. Numerous issues, such as drug resistance and inflammatory reactions in the tumor microenvironment, are implicated in cancer progression, and the role of PTPs in these processes has not been well elucidated. Therefore, the present review focused on discussing the relationship of PTPs with inflammatory cytokines and chemotherapy/targeted drug resistance, providing detailed information on how PTPs can modulate inflammatory reactions and drug resistance to influence progression in HCC.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases, together with protein tyrosine kinases, control many molecular signaling steps that control life at cellular and organismal levels. Impairing alterations in the genes encoding the involved proteins is expected to profoundly affect the quality of life-if compatible with life at all. Here, we review the current knowledge on the effects of germline variants that have been reported for genes encoding a subset of the protein tyrosine phosphatase superfamily; that of the thirty seven classical members. The conclusion must be that the newest genome research tools produced an avalanche of data that suggest 'guilt by association' for individual genes to specific disorders. Future research should face the challenge to investigate these accusations thoroughly and convincingly, to reach a mature genotype-phenotype map for this intriguing protein family.

Abstract
High-throughput screening (HTS) using a natural or synthetic chemical or natural product library is a powerful technique for discovering novel small-molecular-weight compounds in order to develop drugs that specifically inhibit or activate molecular targets, malfunctioning of which underlies the development of diseases, especially malignant neoplasms. In contrast to a large number of successful cases in obtaining inhibitors against protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) using HTS, however, the development of selective inhibitors for protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) has lagged since PTP family members share highly conserved catalytic domain structures. Here, in this chapter we describe a novel method for exploring seed compounds of allosteric PTP inhibitors from a chemical/natural product library through HTS.

Abstract
Background Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease leading to neuronal cell death and manifested by cognitive disorders and behavioral impairment. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are one of the most promising candidates to stimulate neuroregeneration and prevent disease progression. Optimization of MSC culturing protocols is a key strategy to increase the therapeutic potential of the secretome. Objectives Here, we investigated the effect of brain homogenate of a rat model of AD (BH-AD) on the enhancement of protein secretion in the secretome of periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) when cultured in a 3D environment. Moreover, the effect of this modified secretome was examined on neural cells to study the impact of the conditioned medium (CM) on stimulation of regeneration or immunomodulation in AD. Methods PDLSCs were isolated and characterized. Then, the spheroids of PDLSCs were generated in a modified 3D culture plate. PDLSCs-derived CM was prepared in the presence of BH-AD (PDLSCs-HCM) and the absence of it (PDLSCs-CM). The viability of C6 glioma cells was assessed after exposure to different concentrations of both CMs. Then, a proteomic analysis was performed on the CMs. Results Differentiation into adipocytes and high expression of MSCs markers verified the precise isolation of PDLSCs. The PDLSC spheroids were formed after 7 days of 3D culturing, and their viability was confirmed. The effect of CMs on C6 glioma cell viability showed that both CMs at low concentrations (> 20 mg/mL) had no cytotoxic effect on C6 neural cells. The results showed that PDLSCs-HCM contains higher concentrations of proteins compared to PDLSCs-CM, including Src-homology 2 domain (SH2)-containing PTPs (SHP-1) and muscle glycogen phosphorylase (PYGM) proteins. SHP-1 has a role in nerve regeneration, and PYGM is involved in glycogen metabolism. Conclusions The modified secretome derived from 3D cultured spheroids of PDLSCs treated by BH-AD as a reservoir of regenerating neural factors can serve as a potential source for AD treatment.

Abstract
Phosphorylation controls important cellular signals and its dysregulation leads to disease. While most phospho-regulation studies are focused on kinases, phosphatases are comparatively overlooked. Combining peptide arrays with SAMDI mass spectrometry, we show that tyrosine phosphatase activity is restricted by basic amino acids adjacent to phosphotyrosines. We validate this model using two β-catenin mutants associated with cancer (T653R/K) and a mouse model for intellectual disability (T653K). These mutants introduce a basic residue next to Y654, an established phosphorylation site where modification shifts β-catenin from cell-cell adhesions and towards its essential nuclear role as Wnt-signaling effector. We show that T653-basic mutant β-catenins are less efficiently dephosphorylated by phosphatases, leading to sustained Y654 phosphorylation and elevated Wnt signals, similar to those observed for Y654E phospho-mimic mutant mice. This model rationalizes how basic mutations proximal to phosphotyrosines can restrict counter-regulation by phosphatases, providing new mechanismistic and treatment insights for 6000+ potentially relevant cancer mutations.

Inhibition of PTPN21 has antitumor effects in glioma by restraining the EGFR/PI3K/AKT pathway. Toxicol Appl Pharmacol 2022; 451:116180.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 21 (PTPN21) has been recognised as a new tumour-associated protein that is implicated in diverse tumours. However, the correlation between PTPN21 and glioma remains unaddressed. This investigation focused on the relevance of PTPN21 in glioma. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) analysis identified PTPN21 as being up-regulated in glioma tissue. The elevation of PTP21 in glioma was validated by evaluating clinical specimen. Kaplan-Meier plot analysis revealed that a high PTPN21 level predicted poor survival rate in glioma patient. Silencing of PTPN21 produced remarkable anticancer effects in glioma cells including proliferation inhibition, cell cycle arrest, metastasis suppression and enhanced chemosensitivity. Mechanistic studies uncovered that PTPN21 contributes to mediation of the phosphatidyl-inositole-3 kinase (PI3K)/AKT pathway via the regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Restraint of EGFR diminished PTPN21 overexpression-induced promoting effect on PI3K/AKT pathway. Reactivation of AKT reversed PTPN21 silencing-evoked antitumor effect. The tumorigenic potential of PTPN21-silenced glioma cells in vivo was markedly compromised. In summary, this study demonstrates that silencing of PTPN21 produces remarkable anticancer effects in glioma by restraining the EGFR/PI3K/AKT pathway.

Abstract
The type IIa family of receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs), including Lar, RPTPσ and RPTPδ, are well-studied in coordinating actin cytoskeletal rearrangements during axon guidance and synaptogenesis. To determine whether this regulation is conserved in other tissues, interdisciplinary approaches were utilized to study Lar-RPTPs in the Drosophila musculature. Here we find that the single fly ortholog, Drosophila Lar (Dlar), is localized to the muscle costamere and that a decrease in Dlar causes aberrant sarcomeric patterning, deficits in larval locomotion, and integrin mislocalization. Sequence analysis uncovered an evolutionarily conserved Lys-Gly-Asp (KGD) signature in the extracellular region of Dlar. Since this tripeptide sequence is similar to the integrin-binding Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) motif, we tested the hypothesis that Dlar directly interacts with integrin proteins. However, structural analyses of the fibronectin type III domains of Dlar and two vertebrate orthologs that include this conserved motif indicate that this KGD tripeptide is not accessible and thus unlikely to mediate physical interactions with integrins. These results, together with the proteomics identification of basement membrane (BM) proteins as potential ligands for type IIa RPTPs, suggest a complex network of protein interactions in the extracellular space that may mediate Lar function and/or signaling in muscle tissue.

Abstract
Parasites belonging to the Apicomplexa phylum still represent a major public health and world-wide socioeconomic burden that is greatly amplified by the spread of resistances against known therapeutic drugs. Therefore, it is essential to provide the scientific and medical communities with innovative strategies specifically targeting these organisms. In this review, we present an overview of the diversity of the phosphatome as well as the variety of functions that phosphatases display throughout the Apicomplexan parasites’ life cycles. We also discuss how this diversity could be used for the design of innovative and specific new drugs/therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Skeletal development and homeostasis in mammals are modulated by finely coordinated processes of migration, proliferation, differentiation, and death of skeletogenic cells originating from the mesoderm and neural crest. Numerous molecular mechanisms are involved in these regulatory processes, one of which is protein posttranslational modifications, particularly protein tyrosine phosphorylation (PYP). PYP occurs mainly through the action of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), modifying protein enzymatic activity, changing its cellular localization, and aiding in the assembly or disassembly of protein signaling complexes. Under physiological conditions, PYP is balanced by the coordinated action of PTKs and protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). Dysregulation of PYP can cause genetic, metabolic, developmental, and oncogenic skeletal diseases. Although PYP is a reversible biochemical process, in contrast to PTKs, little is known about how this equilibrium is modulated by PTPs in the skeletal system. Whole-genome sequencing has revealed a large and diverse superfamily of PTP genes (over 100 members) in humans, which can be further divided into cysteine (Cys)-, aspartic acid (Asp)-, and histidine (His)-based PTPs. Here, we review current knowledge about the functions and regulatory mechanisms of 28 PTPs involved in skeletal development and diseases; 27 of them belong to class I and II Cys-based PTPs, and the other is an Asp-based PTP. Recent progress in analyzing animal models that harbor various mutations in these PTPs and future research directions are also discussed. Our literature review indicates that PTPs are as crucial as PTKs in supporting skeletal development and homeostasis.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have remarkably transformed Ph+ chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) management; however, TKI resistance remains a major clinical challenge. Mutations in BCR-ABL1 are well studied but fail to explain 20-40% of resistant cases, suggesting the activation of alternative, BCR-ABL1-independent pathways. Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor Gamma (PTPRG), a tumor suppressor, was found to be well expressed in CML patients responsive to TKIs and down-regulated in resistant patients. In this study, we aimed to identify genetic variants in PTPRG that could potentially modulate TKIs response in CML patients. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples collected from two CML cohorts (Qatar and Italy) and targeted exome sequencing was performed. Among 31 CML patients, six were TKI-responders and 25 were TKI-resistant. Sequencing identified ten variants, seven were annotated and three were novel SNPs (c.1602_1603insC, c.85+86delC, and c.2289-129delA). Among them, five variants were identified in 15 resistant cases. Of these, one novel exon variant (c.1602_1603insC), c.841-29C>T (rs199917960) and c.1378-224A>G (rs2063204) were found to be significantly different between the resistant cases compared to responders. Our findings suggest that PTPRG variants may act as an indirect resistance mechanism of BCR-ABL1 to affect TKI treatment.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is a type of cancer intimately related with early development and differentiation of neuroendocrine cells, and constitutes one of the pediatric cancers with higher incidence and mortality. Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are key regulators of cell growth and differentiation by their direct effect on tyrosine dephosphorylation of specific protein substrates, exerting major functions in the modulation of intracellular signaling during neuron development in response to external cues driving cell proliferation, survival, and differentiation. We review here the current knowledge on the role of PTPs in neuroblastoma cell growth, survival, and differentiation. The potential of PTPs as biomarkers and molecular targets for inhibition in neuroblastoma therapies is discussed.

Abstract
Protein kinases and phosphatases constitute a large family of conserved enzymes that control a variety of biological processes by regulating the phosphorylation state of target proteins. They play fundamental regulatory roles during cell cycle progression and signaling, among other key aspects of multicellular development. The complement of protein kinases and phosphatases includes approximately 326 members in Drosophila, and they have been the subject of several functional screens searching for novel components of signaling pathways and regulators of cell division and survival. These approaches have been carried out mostly in cell cultures using RNA interference to evaluate the contribution of each protein in different functional assays, and have contributed significantly to assign specific roles to the corresponding genes. In this work we describe the results of an evaluation of the Drosophila complement of kinases and phosphatases using the wing as a system to identify their functional requirements in vivo. We also describe the results of several modifying screens aiming to identify among the set of protein kinases and phosphatases additional components or regulators of the activities of the Epidermal Growth Factor and Insulin receptors signaling pathways.

Abstract
The α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor is involved in neurological, neurodegenerative, and inflammatory disorders. It operates both as a ligand-gated cationic channel and as a metabotropic receptor in neuronal and non-neuronal cells. As protein phosphorylation is an important cell function regulatory mechanism, deciphering how tyrosine phosphorylation modulates α7 dual ionotropic/metabotropic molecular function is required for understanding its integral role in physiological and pathological processes. α7 single-channel activity elicited by ACh appears as brief isolated openings and less often as episodes of few openings in quick succession. The reduction of phosphorylation by tyrosine kinase inhibition increases the duration and frequency of activation episodes, whereas the inhibition of phosphatases has the opposite effect. Removal of two tyrosine residues at the α7 intracellular domain recapitulates the effects mediated by tyrosine kinase inhibition. The tyrosine-free mutant receptor shows longer duration-activation episodes, reduced desensitization rate and significantly faster recovery from desensitization, indicating that phosphorylation decreases α7 channel activity by favoring the desensitized state. However, the mutant receptor is incapable of triggering ERK1/2 phosphorylation in response to the α7-agonist. Thus, while tyrosine phosphorylation is absolutely required for α7-triggered ERK pathway, it negatively modulates α7 ionotropic activity. Overall, phosphorylation/dephosphorylation events fine-tune the integrated cell response mediated by α7 activation, thus having a broad impact on α7 cholinergic signaling.

Abstract
Morchella conica (M. conica) Pers. is one of six wild edible mushrooms that are widely used by Asian and European countries for their nutritional value. The present study assessed the anti-diabetic potential of M. conica methanolic extract (100 mg/kg body weight) on streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice. STZ was used in a single dose of 65 mg/kg to establish diabetic models. Body weights, water/food intake and fasting blood glucose levels were measured. Histopathological analysis of the pancreas and liver were performed to evaluate STZ-induced tissue injuries. In addition, in vitro assays such as α-amylase and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) inhibitory, antiglycation, antioxidant and cytotoxicity were performed. The in vitro study indicated potent PTP1B inhibitory potential of M. conica with an IC50 value of 26.5 μg/ml as compared to the positive control, oleanolic acid (IC50 36.2 μg/ml). In vivo investigation showed a gradual decrease in blood sugar level in M. conica-treated mice (132 mg/dl) at a concentration of 100 mg/kg as compared to diabetic mice (346 mg/dl). The extract positively improved liver and kidney damages as were shown by their serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, serum glutamic oxaloacetate, alkaline phosphatase, serum creatinine and urea levels. Histopathological analysis revealed slight liver and pancreas improvement of mice treated with extract. Cytotoxicity assays displayed lower IC50 values. Based on the present results of the study, it may be inferred that M. conica are rich in bioactive compounds responsible for antidiabetic activity and this mushroom may be a potential source of antidiabetic drug. However, further studies are required in terms of isolation of bioactive compounds to validate the observed results.

J Cell Biochem 2021; 122:1313-1325. [PMID: 33969922 DOI: 10.1002/jcb.29949] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
On the basis of our recent findings, in which multiple receptor-mediated mast cell functions are regulated via a common signaling cascade, we posit that the formation and functioning of osteoclasts are also controlled by a similar common mechanism. These cells are derived from the same granulocyte/monocyte progenitors and share multiple receptors except those that are cell-specific. In both types of cells, all known receptors reside in lipid rafts, form multiprotein complexes with recruited signaling molecules, and are internalized upon receptor engagement. Signal transduction proceeds in a chain of protein phosphorylations, where adaptor protein LAT (linker-for-activation-of-T-cells) plays a central role. The key kinase that associates LAT phosphorylation and lipid raft internalization is Syk (spleen-tyrosine-kinase) and/or an Src-family-kinase, most probably Lck (lymphocyte-specific-protein-tyrosine-kinase). Dephosphorylation of phosphorylated Syk and Lck by activated SHP-1 (Src-homology-region-2-domain-containing-phosphatase-1) terminates the signal transduction and endocytosis of receptors, resulting in inhibition of osteoclast differentiation and other functions. In malignant plasma cells (MM cells) too, SHP-1 plays a similar indispensable role in controlling signal transduction required for survival and proliferation, though BLNK (B-cell-linker-protein), a functional equivalent of LAT and SLP-76 (SH2-domain-containing-leukocyte-protein-of-76-kDa) in B cells, is used instead of LAT. In both osteoclasts and MM cells, therefore, activated SHP-1 acts negatively in receptor-mediated cellular functions. In osteoblasts, however, activated SHP-1 promotes differentiation, osteocalcin generation, and mineralization by preventing both downregulation of transcription factors, such as Ostrix and Runx2, and degradation of β-catenin required for activation of the transcription factors. SHP-1 is activated by tyrosine phosphorylation and micromolar doses (M-dose) of CCRI-ligand-induced SHP-1 activation. Small molecular compounds, such as A770041, Sorafenib, Nitedanib, and Dovitinib, relieve the autoinhibitory conformation. Activation of SHP-1 by M-dose CCRI ligands or the compounds described may prevent the progression of bone lesions in MM.

Abstract
Several neurodegenerative diseases and neuropsychiatric disorders display aberrant posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of one, or many, proteins. Lithium treatment has been used for mood stabilization for many decades, and is highly effective for large subsets of patients with diverse neurological conditions. However, the differential effectiveness and mode of action are not fully understood. In recent years, studies have shown that lithium alters several protein PTMs, altering their function, and consequently neuronal physiology. The impetus for this review is to outline the links between lithium's therapeutic mode of action and PTM homeostasis. We first provide an overview of the principal PTMs affected by lithium. We then describe several neuropsychiatric disorders in which PTMs have been implicated as pathogenic. For each of these conditions, we discuss lithium's clinical use and explore the putative mechanism of how it restores PTM homeostasis, and thereby cellular physiology. Evidence suggests that determining specific PTM patterns could be a promising strategy to develop biomarkers for disease and lithium responsiveness.

Abstract
Purpose Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML) is an autosomal dominant disorder presenting with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Up to 85% of NSML cases are caused by mutations in the PTPN11 gene that encodes for the Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2). We previously showed that low-dose dasatinib protects from the development of cardiac fibrosis in a mouse model of NSML harboring a Ptpn11Y279C mutation. This study is performed to determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) properties of a low-dose of dasatinib in NSML mice and to determine its effectiveness in ameliorating the development of HCM. Methods Dasatinib was administered intraperitoneally into NSML mice with doses ranging from 0.05 to 0.5 mg/kg. PK parameters of dasatinib in NSML mice were determined. PD parameters were obtained for biochemical analyses from heart tissue. Dasatinib-treated NSML mice (0.1 mg/kg) were subjected to echocardiography and assessment of markers of HCM by qRT-PCR. Transcriptome analysis was performed from the heart tissue of low-dose dasatinib-treated mice. Results Low-dose dasatinib exhibited PK properties that were linear across doses in NSML mice. Dasatinib treatment of between 0.05 and 0.5 mg/kg in NSML mice yielded an exposure-dependent inhibition of c-Src and PZR tyrosyl phosphorylation and inhibited AKT phosphorylation. We found that doses as low as 0.1 mg/kg of dasatinib prevented HCM in NSML mice. Transcriptome analysis identified differentially expressed HCM-associated genes in the heart of NSML mice that were reverted to wild type levels by low-dose dasatinib administration. Conclusion These data demonstrate that low-dose dasatinib exhibits desirable therapeutic PK properties that is sufficient for effective target engagement to ameliorate HCM progression in NSML mice. These data demonstrate that low-dose dasatinib treatment may be an effective therapy against HCM in NSML patients.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP-2) has long been proposed as a cancer drug target. Several small-molecule compounds with different mechanisms of SHP-2 inhibition have been reported, but none are commercially available. Pool selectivity over protein tyrosine phosphatase 1 (SHP-1) and a lack of cellular activity have hindered the development of selective SHP-2 inhibitors. In this review, we describe the binding modes of existing inhibitors and SHP-2 binding sites, summarize the characteristics of the sites involved in selectivity, and identify the suitable groups for interaction with the binding sites.

Abstract
Cantharidin is a potent natural protein phosphatase monoterpene anhydride inhibitor secreted by several species of blister beetle, with its demethylated anhydride analogue, (S)-palasonin, occurring as a constituent of the higher plant Butea frondosa. Cantharidin shows both potent protein phosphatase inhibitory and cancer cell cytotoxic activities, but possible preclinical development of this anhydride has been limited thus far by its toxicity. Thus, several synthetic derivatives of cantharidin have been prepared, of which some compounds exhibit improved antitumor potential and may have use as lead compounds. In the present review, the potential antitumor activity, structure-activity relationships, and development of cantharidin-based anticancer drug conjugates are summarized, with protein phosphatase-related and other types of mechanisms of action discussed. Protein phosphatases play a key role in the tumor microenvironment, and thus described herein is also the potential for developing new tumor microenvironment-targeted cancer chemotherapeutic agents, based on cantharidin and its naturally occurring analogues and synthetic derivatives.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a validated therapeutic target for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Ertiprotafib is a PTP1B inhibitor that reached the clinical trial stage for the treatment of diabetes. Interestingly, Ertiprotafib reduces the melting temperature of PTP1B in differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF) assays, different from most drugs that increase the stability of their target upon binding. No molecular data on how Ertiprotafib functions has been published. Thus, to gain molecular insights into the mode of action of Ertiprotafib, we used biomolecular NMR spectroscopy to characterize the molecular details of the PTP1B:Ertiprotafib interaction. Our results show that Ertiprotafib induces aggregation of PTP1B in a concentration dependent manner. This shows that the insufficient clinical efficacy and adverse effects caused by Ertiprotafib is due to its tendency to cause aggregation of PTP1B.

Abstract
EphA2 is an important oncogenic protein and emerging drug target, but the oncogenic role and mechanism of ligand-independent phosphorylation of EphA2 at tyrosine 772 (pY772-EphA2) is unclear. In this study, we established nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cell lines with stable expression of exogenous EphA2 and EphA2-Y772A (phosphorylation inactivation) using endogenous EphA2-knockdown cells, and observed that pY772A EphA2 was responsible for EphA2-promoting NPC cell proliferation and anchorage-independent and in vivo growth in mice. Mechanistically, EphA2-Y772A mediated EphA2-activating Shp2/Erk-1/2 signaling pathway in the NPC cells, and Gab1 (Grb2-associated binder 1) and Grb2 (growth factor receptor-bound protein 2) were involved in pY772-EphA2 activating this signaling pathway. Our results further showed that Shp2/Erk-1/2 signaling mediated pY772-EphA2-promoting NPC cell proliferation and anchorage-independent growth. Moreover, we observed that EphA2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor ALW-II-41-27 inhibited pY772-EphA2 and EphA2-Y772A decreased the inhibitory effect of ALW-II-41-27 on NPC cell proliferation. Collectively, our results demonstrate that pY772-EphA2 is responsible for EphA2-dependent NPC cell growth in vitro and in vivo by activating Shp2/Erk-1/2 signaling pathway, and is a pharmacologic target of ALW-II-41-27, suggesting that pY772-EphA2 can serve as a therapeutic target in NPC and perhaps in other cancers.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a negative regulator in the insulin signaling pathway. It belongs to a class of non-receptor phosphatases of protein tyrosine phosphatase and can catalyze the dephosphorylation of tyrosine to regulate cell differentiation, growth, and metabolism. However, few studies have focused on the role of PTP1B in regulating energy metabolism of insects. In this study, we investigated the expression profiles and the functions of a PTP1B gene (designated TcPTP61F) in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Quantitative real-time PCR analyzed showed that TcPTP61F was highly expressed in the pupal and adult stages. In adult tissues, TcPTP61F was prominently expressed in the tarsus and head. RNA interference-mediated silencing of TcPTP61F reduced the expression of eight genes in trehalose metabolic and glycolytic pathways. TcPTP61F depletion also caused a significant change in the distribution of trehalose, glucose, and glycogen. Additionally, knockdown of TcPTP61F inhibited the pyruvate kinase (PK) activity and significantly decreased the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level. The results suggest that TcPTP61F is indispensible for trehalose and energy metabolism of T. castaneum.

Abstract
Cryptic pockets, which are not apparent in crystallographic structures, provide promising alternatives to traditional binding sites for drug development. However, identifying cryptic pockets is extremely challenging and the therapeutic potential of cryptic pockets remains unclear. Here, we reported the discovery of novel inhibitors for striatal-enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase (STEP), a potential drug target for multiple neuropsychiatric disorders, based on cryptic pocket detection. By combining the use of molecular dynamics simulations and fragment-centric topographical mapping, we identified transiently open cryptic pockets and identified 12 new STEP inhibition scaffolds through structure-based virtual screening. Site-directed mutagenesis verified the binding of ST3 with the predicted cryptic pockets. Moreover, the most potent and selective inhibitors could modulate the phosphorylation of both ERK1/2 and Pyk2 in PC12 cells.

Abstract
Cysteinyl-leukotrienes (cys-LTs) have well-characterized physiopathological roles in the development of inflammatory diseases. We have previously found that protein tyrosine phosphatase ε (PTPε) is a signaling partner of CysLT1R, a high affinity receptor for leukotriene D4 (LTD4). There are two major isoforms of PTPε, receptor-like (RPTPε) and cytoplasmic (cyt-)PTPε, both of which are encoded by the PTPRE gene but from different promoters. In most cells, their expression is mutually exclusive, except in human primary monocytes, which express both isoforms. Here, we show differential PTPε isoform expression patterns between monocytes, M1 and M2 human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDMs), with the expression of glycosylated forms of RPTPε predominantly in M2-polarized hMDMs. Using PTPε-specific siRNAs and expression of RPTPε and cyt-PTPε, we found that RPTPε is involved in monocyte adhesion and migration of M2-polarized hMDMs in response to LTD4 Altered organization of podosomes and higher phosphorylation of the inhibitory Y-722 residue of ROCK2 was also found in PTPε-siRNA-transfected cells. In conclusion, we show that differentiation and polarization of monocytes into M2-polarized hMDMs modulates the expression of PTPε isoforms and RPTPε is involved in podosome distribution, ROCK2 activation and migration in response to LTD4.

Abstract
Background Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) regulate neuronal differentiation and survival, but their expression patterns and functions in human neuroblastoma (NB) are scarcely known. Here, we have investigated the function and expression of the non-receptor PTPN1 on human NB cell lines and human NB tumor samples. Material/methods NB tumor samples from 44 patients were analysed by immunohistochemistry using specific antibodies against PTPN1, PTPRH, PTPRZ1, and PTEN. PTPN1 knock-down, cell proliferation and tyrosine phosphorylation analyses, and RT-qPCR mRNA expression was assessed on SH-SY5Y, SMS-KCNR, and IMR-32 human NB cell lines. Results Knock-down of PTPN1 in SH-SY5Y NB cells resulted in increased tyrosine phosphorylation and cell proliferation. Retinoic acid-mediated differentiation of NB cell lines did not affect PTPN1 mRNA expression, as compared with other PTPs. Importantly, PTPN1 displayed high expression on NB tumors in association with metastasis and poor prognosis. Conclusions Our results identify PTPN1 as a candidate regulator of NB cell growth and a potential NB prognostic biomarker.

Abstract
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system characterized by loss of coordination, weakness, dysfunctions in bladder capacity, bowel movement, and cognitive impairment. Thus, the disease leads to a significant socioeconomic burden. In the pathophysiology of the disease, both genetic and environmental risk factors are involved. Gene x environment interaction is modulated by epigenetic mechanisms. Epigenetics refers to a sophisticated system that regulates gene expression with no changes in the DNA sequence. The most studied epigenetic mechanism is the DNA methylation. In this review, we summarize the data available from the current literature by grouping sets of differentially methylated genes in distinct biological categories: the immune system including innate and adaptive response, the DNA damage, and the central nervous system.

Abstract
The opposing activities of phosphatases and kinases determine the phosphorylation status of proteins, yet kinases have received disproportionate attention in studies of cellular processes, with the roles of phosphatases remaining less understood. This Research Article describes the use of phosphotyrosine-containing peptide arrays together with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry to directly profile phosphatase substrate selectivities. Twenty-two protein tyrosine phosphatases were characterized with the arrays to give a profile of their specificities. An analysis of the data revealed that certain residues in the substrates had a conserved effect on activity for all enzymes tested, including the general rule that inclusion of a basic lysine or arginine residue on either side of the phosphotyrosine decreased activity. This insight also provides a new perspective on the role of a R1152Q mutant in the insulin receptor, which is known to exhibit a lower phosphorylation level and which this work suggests may be due to an increased activity toward phosphatase enzymes. The use of self-assembled monolayers for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (SAMDI-MS) to provide a rapid and quantitative assay of phosphatase enzymes will be important to gaining a more complete understanding of the biochemistry and biology of this important enzyme class.

Abstract
PTP-MEG2 plays a significant role in insulin production and is able to enhance insulin signaling and improve insulin sensitivity. So, PTP-MEG2 inhibitors are closely associated with type 2 diabetes therapy. A series of novel (R)-5-methylthiazolidin-4-one derivatives were designed and synthesized, and their PTP-MEG2 inhibitory activities (IC50) were determined. Among the desired compounds, 1h shares the highest inhibitory activity (IC50 = 1.34 μM) against PTP-MEG2. Additionally, various post-dynamic analyses confirmed that when compound 1h bound to the PTP-MEG2, the protein conformations became unstable and the function of the pTyr recognition loop (Asn331-Cys338) would be disturbed. And thus, the ideal conformations needed for the catalytic activity was difficult to be maintained. In brief, these might be how the compound 1h worked. Furthermore, we also found that the key residues Arg332 would play a critical role in disturbing the residue interactions.

Abstract
T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TC-PTP, encoded by PTPN2) is a nonreceptor PTP that is most highly expressed in hematopoietic tissues. TC-PTP modulates a variety of physiological functions including cell cycle progression, cell survival and proliferation, and hematopoiesis through tyrosine dephosphorylation of its target substrates, such as EGFR, JAK1, JAK3, STAT1, and STAT3. Studies with whole or tissue-specific loss of TC-PTP function transgenic mice have shown that TC-PTP has crucial roles in the regulation of the immune response, insulin signaling, and oncogenic signaling. More recently, the generation of epidermal-specific TC-PTP-deficient mice for use in multistage skin carcinogenesis bioassays demonstrated that TC-PTP suppresses skin tumor formation by negatively regulating STAT3 and AKT signaling. Further investigation showed that TC-PTP also minimizes UVB-induced epidermal cell damage by promoting apoptosis through the negative regulation of Flk-1/JNK signaling. These findings provide major evidence for a tumor suppressive function for TC-PTP against environment-induced skin cancer. Here, we will discuss TC-PTP, its substrates, and its functions with an emphasis on its role in skin carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Blood values of calcium (Ca), inorganic phosphorus (IP), and alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) are valuable indicators for mineral status and bone mineralization. The mineral homeostasis is maintained by absorption, retention, and excretion processes employing a number of known and unknown sensing and regulating factors with implications on immunity. Due to the high inter-individual variation of Ca and P levels in the blood of pigs and to clarify molecular contributions to this variation, the genetics of hematological traits related to the Ca and P balance were investigated in a German Landrace population, integrating both single-locus and multi-locus genome-wide association study (GWAS) approaches. Genomic heritability estimates suggest a moderate genetic contribution to the variation of hematological Ca (N = 456), IP (N = 1049), ALP (N = 439), and the Ca/P ratio (N = 455), with values ranging from 0.27 to 0.54. The genome-wide analysis of markers adds a number of genomic regions to the list of quantitative trait loci, some of which overlap with previous results. Despite the gaps in knowledge of genes involved in Ca and P metabolism, genes like THBS2, SHH, PTPRT, PTGS1, and FRAS1 with reported connections to bone metabolism were derived from the significantly associated genomic regions. Additionally, genomic regions included TRAFD1 and genes coding for phosphate transporters (SLC17A1-SLC17A4), which are linked to Ca and P homeostasis. The study calls for improved functional annotation of the proposed candidate genes to derive features involved in maintaining Ca and P balance. This gene information can be exploited to diagnose and predict characteristics of micronutrient utilization, bone development, and a well-functioning musculoskeletal system in pig husbandry and breeding.

Abstract
Abstract
Aims
The myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is almost inevitable since reperfusion is the only established treatment for acute myocardial infarction (AMI). To date there is no effective strategy available for reducing the I/R injury. Our aim was to elucidate the mechanisms underlying myocardial I/R injury and to develop a new strategy for attenuating the damage it causes.
Methods and results
Using a mouse model established by ligation of left anterior descending artery, we found an increase in activity of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) in myocardium during I/R. Treating the I/R-mice with a pan-PTP inhibitor phenyl vinyl sulfone attenuated I/R damage, suggesting PTP activation to be harmful in I/R. Through analysing RNAseq data, we showed PTPs being abundantly expressed in mouse myocardium. By exposing primary cardiomyocytes ablated with specific endogenous PTPs by RNAi to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R), we found a role that PTP-PEST (PTPN12) plays to promote cell death under H/R stress. Auranofin, a drug being used in clinical practice for treating rheumatoid arthritis, may target PTP-PEST thus suppressing its activity. We elucidated the molecular basis for Auranofin-induced inactivation of PTP-PEST by structural studies, and then examined its effect on myocardial I/R injury. In the mice receiving Auranofin before reperfusion, myocardial PTP activity was suppressed, leading to restored phosphorylation of PTP-PEST substrates, including ErbB-2 that maintains the survival signalling of the heart. In line with the inhibition of PTP-PEST activity, the Auranofin-treated I/R-mice had smaller infarct size and better cardiac function.
Conclusions
PTP-PEST contributes to part of the damages resulting from myocardial I/R. The drug Auranofin, potentially acting through the PTP-PEST-ErbB-2 signalling axis, reduces myocardial I/R injury. Based on this finding, Auranofin could be used in the development of new treatments that manage I/R injury in patients with AMI.

Abstract
Phosphorylation on tyrosine residues is recognized as an important mechanism for connecting extracellular stimuli to cellular events and defines a variety of physiologic responses downstream of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activation. To date, few protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) have been shown to associate with GPCRs, and little is known about their role in GPCR signaling. To discover potential cysteinyl-leukotriene receptor (CysLT1R)-interacting proteins, we identified protein tyrosine phosphatase ε (PTPε) in a yeast two-hybrid assay. Since both proteins are closely linked to asthma, we further investigated their association. Using a human embryonic kidney cell line 293 (HEK-293) cell line stably transfected with the receptor (HEK-LT1), as well as human primary monocytes, we found that PTPε colocalized with CysLT1R in both resting and leukotriene D4 (LTD4)-stimulated cells. Cotransfection of HEK-LT1 with PTPε had no effect on CysLT1R expression or LTD4-induced internalization, but it inhibited LTD4-induced CXC chemokine 8 (CXCL8) promoter transactivation, protein expression, and secretion. Moreover, reduced phosphorylation of extracellular signal regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), but not of p38 or c-Jun-N-terminal kinase 1 or 2 mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), was observed upon LTD4 stimulation of HEK-LT1 coexpressing cytosolic (cyt-) PTPε, but not receptor (R) PTPε The increased interaction of cyt-PTPε and ERK1/2 after LTD4 stimulation was shown by coimmunoprecipitation. In addition, enhanced ERK1/2 phosphorylation and CXCL8 secretion were found in LTD4-stimulated human monocytes transfected with PTPε-specific siRNAs, adding support to a regulatory/inhibitory role of PTPε in CysLT1R signaling. Given that the prevalence of severe asthma is increasing, the identification of PTPε as a new potential therapeutic target may be of interest.

Role of PTP/PTK trans activated insulin-like signalling pathway in regulation of grasshopper (Oedaleus asiaticus) development.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPs) and protein tyrosine kinase (PTKs) genes are responsible for the regulation of insect insulin-like pathway (ILP), cells growth, metabolism initiation, gene transcription and observing immune response. Signal transduction in insect cell is also associated with PTPs and PTKs. The grasshopper (Oedaleus asiaticus) 'Bey-Bienko' were treated with dsRNA of protein tyrosine non-receptor type 4 (PTPN4) and protein tyrosine kinase 5 (PTK5) along with control (water). Applying dsPTK5 treatments in 5th instar of Oedaleus asiaticus, significant reduction was recorded in body dry mass, growth rate and overall performance except survival rate. Whereas with PTPN4, no such significant impact on all of these growth parameters was recorded. Expression of genes in ILP 5th instar of Oedaleus asiaticus by the application of dsPTPN4 and dsPTK5 revealed that PTK, INSR (insulin receptor), IRS (insulin receptor substrate), PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase), PDK (3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase), Akt (protein kinase B) and FOXO (forkhead transcription factor) significantly expressed with downregulation except PTPN4, which remained non-significant. On the other hand, the phosphorylation level of ILP four proteins in O. asiaticus with the treatment of dsPTPN4 and dsPTK5 significantly affected P-IRS and P-FOXO, while P-INSR and P-AKT remained stable at the probability level of 5%. This indicated that the stress response in the O. asiaticus insulin-like signalling pathway (ILP) reduced. Regarding association of protective enzymatic activities, ROS (relative oxygen species), CAT (catalase) and PO (phenol oxidase) increased significantly with exposure to dsPTK5 as compared to dsPTPN4 and control, while exposure of 5th instar of O. asiaticus to dsPTPN4 treatment slightly raised CAT and PO activities with but significant contribution. No such significant effect on MFO and POD was seen using dsPTPN4 and dsPTK5. This showed that in the ILP of O. asiaticus, PTK5 was detrimental to growth, body mass and overall performance, which ultimately benefited insect detoxification with high-energy cost.
