Abstract
BACKGROUND Regulatory T (Treg) cells and IgE-mediated signaling pathways could play important roles in the induction of allergen tolerance during house dust mite-specific subcutaneous immunotherapy (HDM-SCIT). Our aim was to compare the basal expression levels of Treg, T helper 1 (Th1) and Th2 transcription factors and components involved in IgE-mediated signaling in healthy subjects with those in HDM-allergic patients both untreated and successfully treated with HDM-SCIT. METHODS Thirty-nine HDM-allergic patients who completed a 3- to 5-year course of mite extract SCIT, 20 mite-allergic controls and 25 healthy controls participated in this study. The efficacy of SCIT was monitored using skin-prick tests (SPTs), total immunoglobulin E (tIgE), specific IgE (sIgE), sIgG(4), nasal challenge and visual analog scale (VAS) scores at several time points. The mRNA levels of forkhead box protein 3 (FOXP3), T-BET, GATA-3, FcεRI, spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase (PI3K) and SH2 domain-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) were quantified by real-time RT-PCR using nonstimulated whole blood samples. RESULTS Decreased wheal sizes and VAS scores, negative challenges and increased sIgG(4) levels indicated that SCIT was effective in the treated patients. Basal expression levels of FOXP3 and GATA-3 decreased and T-BET levels increased in both treated patients and in healthy controls compared to untreated patients. The IgE-mediated pathway kinases Syk and PI3K exhibited reduced expression, whereas SHIP phosphatase levels were elevated in both treated patients and healthy controls relative to untreated patients. The expression levels of FcεRI were not significantly altered. CONCLUSIONS Immunotherapy using HDM extracts results in a modification of the basal expression levels of several IgE-related signaling factors and induces a highly significant upregulation of Th1-response and downregulation of Th2-response transcription factors. Interestingly, this therapy also appears to reduce the basal expression of FOXP3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IgE-mediated secretion from mast cells or basophils depends on the activity of both spleen tyrosine kinase (syk) and phosphatidyl inositol 3' kinase (PI3K), but several specific downregulatory pathways (eg, loss of syk expression) do not. OBJECTIVE We tested whether stimulation with antigen in the presence of a syk inhibitor (NVP-QAB205) would ablate secretion while simultaneously allowing anergy. METHODS The anergic or desensitized state in human basophils, cultured-derived mast cells, and in situ stimulated airway mast cells (in organ baths) was assessed after stimulation with antigen in the presence of syk inhibitor. RESULTS Antigen caused 35 +/- 7% and 62 +/- 10% histamine release from basophils and mast cells, respectively, and it caused an 87 +/- 5% histamine/leukotriene D(4)-dependent contraction of human isolated bronchi. All of these responses were blocked >95% by the syk inhibitor. Rechallenging the preparations with antigen, after first washing out the syk inhibitor and antigen, revealed that near complete anergy (92% to 100%) occurred in each case. A similar result was found when using a PI3K inhibitor, LY294002, in studies of basophils. CONCLUSION Although the syk inhibitor nearly abolished the antigen-induced secretion from mast cells and basophils, it had little effect on the pathways involved in anergy. These results suggest that syk and PI3K are not involved in downregulation leading to anergy.

Abstract
Phagocytosis is a complex sequence of events involving coordinated remodeling of the plasma membrane with the underlying cytoskeleton. Although the role of the actin cytoskeleton is becoming increasingly elucidated, the role of microtubules (MTs) remains poorly understood. Here, we examine the role of MTs during FcgammaR-mediated phagocytosis in RAW264.7 mouse macrophages. We observe that MTs extend into the phagosomal cups. The MT-depolymerizing agents, colchicine and nocodazole, cause a sizeable reduction in phagocytosis of large particles in RAW264.7 cells. Phagocytosis in primed macrophages is unaffected by MT-depolymerizing agents. However, activation of macrophages coincides with an increased population of drug-stable MTs, which persist in functional phagocytic cups. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of unprimed macrophages reveals that pseudopod formation is reduced markedly following colchicine treatment, which is not a consequence of cell rounding. MT depolymerization in these cells does not affect particle binding, Syk, or Grb2-associated binder 2 recruitment or phosphotyrosine accumulation at the site of phagocytosis. Ras activation also proceeds normally in macrophages treated with colchicine. However, MT disruption causes a decrease in accumulation of AKT-pleckstrin homology-green fluorescent protein, a probe that binds to PI-3K products at the sites of particle binding. A corresponding decline in activated AKT is observed in colchicine-treated cells using immunoblotting with a phospho-specific-AKT (ser473) antibody. Furthermore, the translocation of the p85alpha regulatory subunit of PI-3K is reduced at the phagocytic cup in colchicine-treated cells. These findings suggest that MTs regulate the recruitment and localized activity of PI-3K during pseudopod formation.

Abstract
Mast cells are responsible for IgE-mediated allergic reactions. Phospholipase D1 (PLD1) and PLD2 regulate mast cell activation, but the mechanisms remain unclear. Here we show that PLD2 associates with and promotes activation of Syk, a key enzyme in mast cell activation. Antigen stimulation resulted in increased association and colocalization of Syk with PLD2 on the plasma membrane as indicated by coimmunoprecipitation and confocal microscopy. This association was dependent on tyrosine phosphorylation of Syk but not on PLD2 activity. In vitro, PLD2 interacted via its Phox homology (PX) domain with recombinant Syk to induce phosphorylation and activation of Syk. Furthermore, overexpression of PLD2 or catalytically inactive PLD2K758R enhanced antigen-induced phosphorylations of Syk and its downstream targets, the adaptor proteins LAT and SLP-76, while expression of a PLD2 siRNA blocked these phosphorylations. Apparently, the interaction of PLD2 with Syk is an early critical event in the activation of mast cells.

Abstract
Six strains of marine cyanobacteria, of which five benthic, were isolated from an area of the Portuguese coast with no known apparent toxic microbial bloom. Five strains were lethal for mice. Four of them produced lethargy and four lead to bleeding. One of the toxic strains was from a genus (Aphanothece) not previously associated with toxin production. Extracts from four isolates induced SH-SY5Y-neuroblastoma cell apoptosis without affecting the viability of hepatocytes, NRK kidney cells, or fibroblasts. Aqueous extract from four isolates inhibited thrombin-induced blood platelet activation, with decreased P-selectin expression, platelet aggregation and shedding of platelet-derived micro-vesicles. Curiously, platelets treated with organic extracts from two of the cyanobacterial strains formed platelet micro-vesicles, expressed P-selectin on the surface and showed a distinct phosphotyrosine protein pattern, but failed to aggregate. We conclude that low-abundance marine cyanobacteria growing at low rates may be an important source for novel toxins that may be useful to dissect mammalian signalling pathways of apoptosis and platelet function.

Abstract
There is a high degree of cross-talk between tyrosine phosphorylation and the serine/threonine phosphorylation signaling pathways. Here we show a physical and functional interaction between the classical protein kinase C isoform (cPKC), PKCalpha, and two major nonreceptor tyrosine kinases in platelets, Syk and Src. In the presence of the cPKC-selective inhibitor Go6976, platelet 5-hydroxytryptamine release was abolished in response to co-activation of glycoproteins VI and Ib-IX-V by the snake venom alboaggregin A, whereas platelet aggregation was substantially inhibited. Of the two platelet cPKCs, PKCalpha but not PKCbeta was activated, occurring in an Syk- and phospholipase C-dependent manner. Syk and PKCalpha associate in a stimulation-dependent manner, requiring Syk but not PKC activity. PKCalpha and Syk also co-translocate from the cytosol to the plasma membrane upon platelet activation, in a manner dependent upon the activities of both kinases. Although PKCalpha is phosphorylated on tyrosine downstream of Syk, we provide evidence against phosphorylation of Syk by PKCalpha, consistent with a lack of effect of PKCalpha inhibition on Syk activity. PKCalpha also associates with Src; although in contrast to interaction with Syk, PKCalpha activity is required for the association of these kinases but not the stimulation-induced translocation of Src to the cell membrane. Finally, the activity of Src is negatively regulated by PKC, as shown by potentiation of Src activity in the presence of the PKC inhibitors GF109203X or Go6976. Therefore, there is a complex interplay between PKCalpha, Syk, and Src involving physical interaction, phosphorylation, translocation within the cell, and functional activity regulation.

Abstract
After engagement of the B cell receptor for antigen, the Syk protein-tyrosine kinase becomes phosphorylated on multiple tyrosines, some of which serve as docking sites for downstream effectors with SH2 or other phosphotyrosine binding domains. The most frequently identified binding partner for catalytically active Syk identified in a yeast two-hybrid screen was the p85 regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3-kinase. The C-terminal SH2 domain of p85 was sufficient for mediating an interaction with tyrosine-phosphorylated Syk. Interestingly, this domain interacted with Syk at phosphotyrosine 317, a site phosphorylated in trans by the Src family kinase, Lyn, and identified previously as a binding site for c-Cbl. This site interacted preferentially with the p85 C-terminal SH2 domain compared with the c-Cbl tyrosine kinase binding domain. Molecular modeling studies showed a good fit between the p85 SH2 domain and a peptide containing phosphotyrosine 317. Tyr-317 was found to be essential for Syk to support phagocytosis mediated by FcgammaRIIA receptors expressed in a heterologous system. These studies establish a new type of p85 binding site that can exist on proteins that serve as substrates for Src family kinases and provide a molecular explanation for observations on direct interactions between Syk and phosphoinositide 3-kinase.

Abstract
The interaction of particles with certain cell surface receptors initiates intracellular signalling pathways that ultimately lead to submembranous actin filament assembly, pseudopod extension, and the ingestion of the particles. Here, Steven Greenberg reviews recent evidence implicating various signalling events in phagocytosis--in particular, activation of tyrosine kinases and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase--and speculates how they might regulate the actin cytoskeleton.

Abstract
Syk protein-tyrosine kinase has been implicated in a variety of hematopoietic cell responses, in particular immunoreceptor signaling events that mediate diverse cellular responses including proliferation, differentiation, and phagocytosis. On the other hand, Syk exhibits a more widespread expression pattern in nonhematopoietic cells like fibroblasts, epithelial cells, breast tissue, hepatocytes, neuronal cells, and vascular endothelial cells and has been shown to be functionally important on these cell types. Thus, Syk appears to play a general physiological function in a wide variety of cells. In this article, we briefly review the current literature regarding the expression and novel function of Syk in various cells and tissues.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) was originally discovered as a vasodilator product of the endothelium. Over the last 15 years, this vascular mediator has been shown to have important antiplatelet actions as well. By activating guanylyl cyclase, inhibiting phosphoinositide 3-kinase, impairing capacitative calcium influx, and inhibiting cyclooxygenase-1, endothelial NO limits platelet activation, adhesion, and aggregation. Platelets are also an important source of NO, and this platelet-derived NO pool limits recruitment of platelets to the platelet-rich thrombus. A deficiency of bioactive NO is associated with arterial thrombosis in animal models, individuals with endothelial dysfunction, and patients with a deficiency of the extracellular antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase-3. This enzyme catalyzes the reduction of hydrogen and lipid peroxides, which limits the availability of these reactive oxygen species to react with and inactivate NO. The complex biochemical reactions that underlie the function and inactivation of NO in the vasculature represent an important set of targets for therapeutic intervention for the prevention and treatment of arterial thrombotic disorders.

Abstract
Syk has been demonstrated to play a crucial role in oxidative stress signaling in B cells. Here we report that Syk is required for the activation of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase-Akt survival pathway in B cells exposed to oxidative stress. Phosphorylation and activation of the serine-threonine kinase Akt were markedly increased in B cells treated with H(2)O(2). In Syk-deficient DT40 cells treated with low doses of H(2)O(2) (10-100 microm), Akt activation was considerably reduced. Pretreatment with wortmannin, a PI 3-kinase-specific inhibitor, completely blocked the Syk-dependent Akt activation. Following stimulation by low doses of H(2)O(2), a significant increase in PI 3-kinase activity was found in wild-type but not in Syk-deficient cells. These findings suggest that PI 3-kinase mediates Syk-dependent Akt activation pathway. Furthermore, viability of Syk-deficient cells, after exposure to H(2)O(2), was dramatically decreased and caspase-9 activity was greatly increased compared with that of the wild-type cells. These results suggest that Syk is essential for the Akt survival pathway in B cells and enhances cellular resistance to oxidative stress-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
Although nitric oxide (NO) has potent antiplatelet actions, the signaling pathways affected by NO in the platelet are poorly understood. Since NO can induce platelet disaggregation and phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) activation renders aggregation irreversible, we tested the hypothesis that NO exerts its antiplatelet effects at least in part by inhibiting PI3-kinase. The results demonstrate that the NO donor S-nitrosoglutathione (S-NO-glutathione) inhibits the stimulation of PI3-kinase associated with tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins and of p85/PI3-kinase associated with the SRC family kinase member LYN following the exposure of platelets to thrombin receptor-activating peptide. The activation of LYN-associated PI3-kinase was unrelated to changes in the amount of PI3-kinase physically associated with LYN signaling complexes but did require the activation of LYN and other tyrosine kinases. The cyclic GMP-dependent kinase activator 8-bromo-cyclic GMP had similar effects on PI3-kinase activity, consistent with a model in which the cyclic nucleotide mediates the effects of NO. Additional studies showed that wortmannin and S-NO-glutathione have additive inhibitory effects on thrombin receptor-activating peptide-induced platelet aggregation and the surface expression of platelet activation markers. These data provide evidence of a distinct and novel mechanism for the inhibitory effects of NO on platelet function.

Abstract
Phagocytosis requires actin assembly and pseudopod extension, two cellular events that coincide spatially and temporally. The signal transduction events underlying both processes may be distinct. We tested whether phagocytic signaling resembles that of growth factor receptors, which induce actin polymerization via activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase). Fcgamma receptor-mediated phagocytosis was accompanied by a rapid increase in the accumulation of phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate in vivo, and addition of wortmannin (WM) or LY294002, two inhibitors of PI 3-kinase(s), inhibited phagocytosis but not Fcgamma receptor-directed actin polymerization. However, both compounds prevented maximal pseudopod extension, suggesting that PI 3-kinase inhibition produced a limitation in membrane required for pseudopod extension. Availability of plasma membrane was not limiting for phagocytosis, because blockade of ingestion in the presence of WM was not overcome by reducing the number of particles adhering to macrophages. However, decreasing bead size, and hence the magnitude of pseudopod extension required for particle engulfment, relieved the inhibition of phagocytosis in the presence of WM or LY294002 by up to 80%. The block in phagocytosis of large particles occurred before phagosomal closure, because both compounds inhibited spreading of macrophages on substrate-bound IgG. Macrophage spreading on IgG was accompanied by exocytic insertion of membrane from an intracellular source, as measured by the dye FM1-43. These results indicate that one or more isoforms of PI 3 kinase are required for maximal pseudopod extension but not phagocytosis per se. We suggest that PI 3-kinase is required for coordinating exocytic membrane insertion and pseudopod extension.

Abstract
ZAP-70 is another member of Syk family tyrosine kinases which plays an essential role in growth, differentiation, and function of T lymphocytes. In this study, we report the specific expression of a 66 kDa tyrosine kinase that is specifically cross-reacted with anti-ZAP-70 antibodies in the developing neurons. By immunoblot and immunoprecipitation assay using various anti-ZAP-70 antibodies, a 66 kDa tyrosine kinase was detected in lysates from rat brain. During the development of rat brain, expression levels of this 66 kDa tyrosine kinase were highest around 3 weeks after birth and decreased thereafter in the adult. In addition, immunoblot analysis demonstrated that this 66 kDa tyrosine kinase was expressed almost solely in the nervous system. These results suggest that this ZAP-70-related tyrosine kinase may play an important role in growth and differentiation in the developing neurons. Our observations will provide the clue to approach the regulatory system common to neurogenesis and immune response.

Abstract
pp72syk is essential for development and function of several hematopoietic cells, and it becomes activated through tandem SH2 interaction with ITAM motifs in immune response receptors. Since Syk is also activated through integrins, which do not contain ITAMs, a CHO cell model system was used to study Syk activation by the platelet integrin, alpha IIb beta 3. As in platelets, Syk underwent tyrosine phosphorylation and activation during CHO cell adhesion to alpha IIb beta 3 ligands, including fibrinogen. This involved Syk autophosphorylation and the tyrosine kinase activity of Src, and it exhibited two novel features. Firstly, unlike alpha IIb beta 3-mediated activation of pp125FAK, Syk activation could be triggered by the binding of soluble fibrinogen and abolished by truncation of the alpha IIb or beta 3 cytoplasmic tail, and it was resistant to inhibition by cytochalasin D. Secondly, it did not require phosphorylated ITAMs since it was unaffected by disruption of an ITAM-interaction motif in the SH2(C) domain of Syk or by simultaneous overexpression of the tandem SH2 domains. These studies demonstrate that Syk is a proximal component in alpha IIb beta 3 signaling and is regulated as a consequence of intimate functional relationships with the alpha IIb beta 3 cytoplasmic tails and with Src or a closely related kinase. Furthermore, there are fundamental differences in the activation of Syk by alpha IIb beta 3 and immune response receptors, suggesting a unique role for integrins in Syk function.

Abstract
Previously, we have demonstrated that the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase p72syk is coupled to the platelet Fc receptor for IgG (Fc gamma RIIA) (Chacko, G. W., Duchemin, A. M., Coggeshall, K. M., Osborne, J. M., Brandt, J. T., and Anderson, C. L. (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 32435-32440). Further analysis of the platelet activation by Fc gamma RIIA demonstrated that Fc gamma RIIA is also inducibly coupled to the serine/threonine and lipid kinase, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-K). activation of platelets with anti-Fc gamma RIIA antibodies resulted in the noncovalent association of PI 3-K with Fc gamma RIIA as well as an increase in Fc gamma RIIA-associated PI 3-K activity. Binding of both p72syk and PI 3-K to Fc gamma RIIA was reconstituted with synthetic phosphopeptides corresponding to the sequence of the atypical immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in the cytoplasmic domain of Fc gamma RIIA. Our findings demonstrate that coupling of both p72syk and PI. 3-K activities to Fc gamma RIIA is regulated by tyrosine phosphorylation of the ITAM, and we speculate that p72syk might act as an adapter to recruit PI 3-K to activated Fc gamma RIIA.

Abstract
When platelets are stimulated by the addition of thrombin, a series of temporally linked signaling events are initiated. Some of the early events are needed to engage the integrin glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa in a high-affinity state. This in turn leads to aggregation, which initiates a wave of events distinct from those triggered by thrombin. Platelet responses are sensitive to protein serine/threonine phosphatase inhibitors, but which events are dependent on protein phosphatase activity is not known. In the present studies, the effect of the phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A on aggregation-induced signaling was examined. The addition of 0.2 unit/mL thrombin caused aggregation-dependent redistribution of cytoskeletal proteins (actin binding protein, talin, vinculin, and alpha-actinin), glycoproteins (GPIIb-IIIa, PECAM), and signaling molecules (PI3-kinase, pp60c-src) to the cytoskeletal fraction of platelets. Addition of 1-2 microM calyculin A blocked the ability of 0.2 unit/mL thrombin to induce aggregation and the association of these molecules with the cytoskeleton. Aggregation (60-80% of control) was restored if 1 unit/mL thrombin was added, but there was no corresponding redistribution of actin binding protein, talin, vinculin, alpha-actinin, GPIIb-IIIa, PECAM, PI3-kinase, and pp60c-src to the cytoskeleton. Treatment of platelets with calyculin A resulted in an increase in the phosphorylation state of a membrane skeletal protein of 50 kDa. These data strongly suggest that platelet aggregation is dissociable from aggregation-induced signaling, which is dependent on type 1 and 2A phosphatase activities.

Abstract
NNKY 1-19, anti-CD9 monoclonal antibody (MoAb), induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation of 125-, 97-, 75-, 64-, and 40-kDa proteins in human platelets, whereas F(ab')2 fragments of NNKY 1-19 did not, suggesting that the stimulation of Fc gamma II receptors is required for the induction of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. Tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins of 97 and 125 kDa were associated with aggregation, while NNKY 1-19-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation was completely inhibited by prostaglandin I2 (PGI2). The activity of p72syk was assessed in immunoprecipitation kinase assays to determine at which step the signal transduction pathway leading to protein tyrosine phosphorylation was suspended. NNKY 1-19 induced a rapid and transient increase in the p72syk-associated tyrosine kinase activity that peaked at 10 s and subsided to the original level 2 min after stimulation. Coinciding with this time course, p60c-src transiently associated with p72syk. In platelets preexposed to GRGDS peptides or PGI2, NNKY 1-19 also increased the p72syk-associated tyrosine kinase activity and led to the association of p60c-src with p72syk. However, in contrast to the control without any inhibitor, the elevated tyrosine kinase activity and the associated state of the two tyrosine kinases persisted as long as 5 min after stimulation. F(ab')2 fragments of NNKY 1-19 induced changes similar to those observed with the effects of GRGDS peptides or PGI2 treatment on intact IgG NNKY 1-19 stimulation. F(ab')2 fragments of another CD9 MoAb, PMA2, had effects on p72syk essentially similar to those of NNKY 1-19. These findings suggest that the binding of anti-CD9 MoAb to CD9 on the platelet membrane per se induces an increase in the p72syk-associated tyrosine kinase activity but that Fc gamma II receptor-mediated signal(s) is required for the full activation of platelets and the appearance of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins. The elevated intracellular cAMP level induced by PGI2 acts at a step distal to the activation of p72syk and inhibited the signal transduction pathway leading to protein tyrosine phosphorylation and aggregation. p72syk activation occurs in the absence of aggregation, but aggregation appears to reduce the elevated p72syk activity induced by anti-CD9 MoAb.
