Effect of glycyrrhetinic acid on membrane band 3 in human erythrocytes. Arch Biochem Biophys 2008; 479:46-51.

Abstract
Glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) is a hydrolytic product of the triterpene glycoside of glycyrrhizic acid, one of the main constituents of licorice root, which has long been studied, due to its several biological and endocrine properties. In this paper, GA was tested on human erythrocytes, and GA-induced alterations were compared with those caused by diamide, a mild oxidant inducing well-characterized cell/membrane alterations, and n-ethylmaleimide (NEM), as alkylating agent. In order to verify the biochemical steps underlying the action of GA, band 3 Tyr-phosphorylation level, enzyme recruitment and band 3 clustering in cells pre-incubated with GA before diamide treatment were all examined. Results show that GA, in a dose-dependent manner, prevents both diamide and NEM-induced band 3 Tyr-phosphorylation, but not GSH decrease caused by both compounds. In addition, diamide-induced band 3 clustering and IgG binding to altered cells were also completely reversed by GA pre-treatment. Also, when membrane sensitivity toward proteolytic digestion was tested, GA-treated cells showed high resistance to proteolysis. In conclusion, in human erythrocytes, GA is proposed to strengthen membrane integrity against both oxidative and proteolytic damage.

Abstract
SHP-1 is a SH2-domain containing protein Tyr-phosphatase expressed in hematopoietic cell lines, which is hypothesized to play a negative role in signal transduction. In human erythrocytes, the phospho-Tyr level of proteins, mainly transmembrane band 3, is closely controlled by the antithetic activity of Tyr-protein kinases and phosphatases, resulting in a dephosphorylated state. Only after particular stimuli, as with oxidizing agents, diamide or pervanadate, or thiol alkylating compound, N-ethyl maleimide (NEM), Tyr-phosphorylation of band 3 can be triggered, inhibiting Tyr-phosphatase action and inducing erythrocyte membrane reorganization. We demonstrate that, in human erythrocytes, SHP-1 is present in membranes from resting cells, but in 5% of the protein amount. Interestingly, this amount increases up to threefold following NEM treatment of intact cells, whereas diamide and pervanadate do not alter the normal protein location. In addition, SHP-1 translocation from cytosol to membrane is not affected by band 3 P-Tyr level, because it is not mediated by the SH2-P-Tyr recruitment mechanism, and localizes into the cytoskeletal compartment. Band 3 is the target of SHP-1, which dephosphorylates Tyr 8, 21, and 904. These findings support the idea that, in human erythrocytes, the normal level of Tyr-phosphorylation of membrane protein, mainly band 3, must be downregulated. We hypothesize that the presence of both SHP-2 and SHP-1 ensures band 3 dephosphorylation in different conditions: SHP-2, through interaction of its SH2 domain/s to P-Tyr protein, is regulated by the band 3 Tyr-phosphorylation level; SHP-1 may be involved by simple membrane rearrangement.

Abstract
Band 3 (AE1), the most prominent polypeptide of the human erythrocyte membrane, becomes heavily tyrosine phosphorylated following treatment of intact cells with protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors such as diamide, pervanadate, vanadate, or N-ethylmaleimide (NEM). The mechanism underlying this tyrosine phosphorylation is thought to involve the sequential action of two protein tyrosine kinases, Syk (p72syk) and Lyn (p53/56lyn). While Lyn catalysed phosphorylation appears to be strictly dependent on prior phosphorylation of Tyr8 and 21 of band 3 by Syk, little is known about the mechanism of induction of Syk phosphorylation. Data presented here show that both the fraction of Syk that associates with the membrane and the extent of phosphorylation of band 3 differ in response to the above inhibitors. While diamide and NEM stimulate syk translocation to the membrane during their induction of band 3 tyrosine phosphorylation, pervanadate and vanadate induce no change in kinase distribution. Moreover, diamide and NEM-induced Syk recruitment to the membrane are phosphotyrosine independent and involve their preferential association with Triton X-100-insoluble membrane skeletons. Together these data reveal a complex process controlling the association and catalytic activity of protein tyrosine kinases syk and lyn with the human erythrocyte membrane.

Abstract
"Band 3," an integral membrane protein of red blood cells, plays a relevant role in anionic transport. The C- and N-terminal portions of band 3 are cytoplasmatics, and the last is the link site for different glycolitic enzymes, such as glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, aldolase, phosphofructokinase, and hemoglobin. All or some of these interactions on the CDB3 protein could allow a subtle modulation of anion flux. The interaction among HbA, Mg(2+), and membrane proteins has been sufficiently investigated, but not the effect of Mg(2+) on pathological hemoglobin in relation to the influx of the SO(4)(2-). The aim of this study was to evaluate the involvement of hemoglobin S in sulfate transport. This has been measured with native and increased concentrations of Mg(2+), using normal erythrocytes containing HbA, sickle red cells containing HbS, or ghosts obtained from both erythrocytes and normal erythrocytes ghosts with HbS added. The magnitude of the SO(4)(2-) rate constant measured in normal red blood cells increased markedly when measured in the presence of varied Mg(2+) concentrations. The results show that a low increase of intracellular Mg(2+) concentrations exercises a different HbA modulation on band 3 protein and consequently higher anion transport activity. The same experiments carried out in sickle red cells showed that the SO(4)(2-) rate constant measured in the presence of native concentrations of Mg(2+) was normal, compared to normal red cells, and was not affected by any increase of intracellular Mg(2+). Our suppositions with regard to the importance exercised by the hemoglobin and the Mg(2+) on the SO(4)(2-) influx were confirmed by comparison of the data obtained through measuring SO(4)(2-) influx with native and increased concentrations of Mg(2+) in both normal and sickle red cell ghosts. Both revealed the same sensitivity to Mg(2+) due to withdrawal of hemoglobins. The incorporation of HbS in normal as well as in sickle red cell ghosts reduced the Mg(2+) response to sulfate influx in both the reconstituted ghosts. Our research demonstrated that the different effects exercised on the rate constants of SO(4)(2-) influx in normal (HbA) and sickle red cells (HbS) by the increased intracellular Mg(2+) could be ascribed to the physical-chemical influence exercised either on the hemoglobins or on the intracellular contents of erythrocytes.

Abstract
Tyr phosphorylation of the multifunctional transmembrane protein band 3 has been implicated in several erythrocyte functions and disorders. We previously demonstrated that pervanadate treatment of human erythrocytes induces band-3 Tyr phosphorylation, which is catalyzed by the sequential action of tyrosine kinase Syk and tyrosine kinase(s) belonging to the Src family. In this study, we show that Tyr phosphorylation of band 3, elicited by pervanadate, N-ethylmaleimide, or diamide, greatly increases band-3 interaction with the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 in parallel with the translocation of SHP-2 to erythrocyte membranes. These events seem to be mediated by Src-like catalyzed phosphorylation of band 3 because both SHP-2 translocation to cellular membranes and its interaction with Tyr-phosphorylated protein are greatly counteracted by PP2, a specific inhibitor of Src kinases. Binding-competition experiments demonstrate that SHP-2 recruitment to band 3 occurs via its SH2 domain(s). In particular, our data support the view that SHP-2 docks specifically with P-Y359 of band 3. Experiments performed with intact erythrocytes in the presence of the SHP-2 inhibitor calpeptin suggest that, once recruited to Tyr-phosphorylated band 3, the tyrosine phosphatase dephosphorylates the protein. P-Y8, 21, and 904 are the residues affected by SHP-2, as judged by (32)P-peptide mapping of band 3 digested with trypsin. These results indicate that in treated erythrocytes, recruitment of cytosolic SHP-2 to band 3 is a prerequisite for the subsequent dephosphorylation of the transmembrane protein.

Abstract
Polymerization of hemoglobin S in sickle red cells, in deoxygenated conditions, is associated with K+ loss and cellular dehydration. It was previously reported that deoxygenation of sickle cells increases protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity and band 3 tyrosine phosphorylation and that PTK inhibitors reduce cell dehydration. Here, the study investigates which PTKs are involved and the mechanism of their activation. Deoxygenation of sickle cells induced a 2-fold increase in Syk activity, measured by autophosphorylation in immune complex assays, but had no effect on Lyn. Syk was not stimulated by deoxygenation of normal red cells, and stimulation was partly reversible on reoxygenation of sickle cells. Syk activation was independent of the increase in intracellular Ca++ and Mg2+ associated with deoxygenation. Lectins that promote glycophorin or band 3 aggregation did not activate Syk. In parallel to Syk stimulation, deoxygenation of sickle cells, but not of normal red cells, decreased the activity of both membrane-associated protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPs) and membrane protein thiol content. In vitro pretreatment of Syk immune complexes with membrane PTP inhibited Syk autophosphorylation. It is suggested that Syk activation in vivo could be mediated by PTP inhibition, itself resulting from thiol oxidation, as PTPs are known to be inhibited by oxidants. Altogether these data indicate that Syk could be involved in the mechanisms leading to sickle cell dehydration.

Abstract
Phosphoinositide lipids regulate numerous cellular processes in all eukaryotes. The versatility of this phospholipid is provided by combinations of phosphorylation on the 3', 4', and 5' positions of the inositol head group. Two distinct structural families of phosphoinositide (PI) kinases have so far been identified and named after their prototypic members, the PI 3-kinase and phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) phosphate kinase families, both of which have been found to contain structural homologues possessing PI 4-kinase activity. Nevertheless, the prevalent PtdIns 4-kinase activity in many mammalian cell types is conferred by the widespread type II PtdIns 4-kinase, which has so far resisted molecular characterization. We have partially purified the human type II isoform from plasma membrane rafts of human A431 epidermoid carcinoma cells and obtained peptide mass and sequence data. The results allowed the cDNA containing the full open reading frame to be cloned. The predicted amino acid sequence revealed that the type II enzyme is the prototypic member of a novel, third family of PI kinases. We have named the purified protein type IIalpha and a second human isoform, type IIbeta. The type IIalpha mRNA appears to be expressed ubiquitously in human tissues, and homologues appear to be expressed in all eukaryotes.

Abstract
Treatment of intact human erythrocytes with pervanadate induces Tyr (Y)-phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein band 3; in parallel, the activity of the immunoprecipitated tyrosine kinases Syk and Lyn is increased. When erythrocytes are incubated with pervanadate together with PP1, a specific inhibitor of Src kinases, including Lyn, the Y-phosphorylation of band 3 is only partially reduced. Indeed, the PP1-resistant phosphorylation of band 3 precedes and is a prerequisite for its coimmunoprecipitation with Lyn, which interacts with the phosphoprotein via the SH2 domain of the enzyme, as proven by binding competition experiments. Upon recruitment to primarily phosphorylated band 3, Lyn catalyzes the secondary phosphorylation of the transmembrane protein. These data are consistent with the view that band 3 is phosphorylated in intact erythrocytes by both PP1-resistant (most likely Syk) and PP1-inhibited (most likely Lyn) tyrosine kinases according to a sequential phosphorylation process. Similar radiolabeled peptide maps are obtained by tryptic digestion of32P-band 3 isolated from either pervanadate-treated erythrocytes or red cell membranes incubated with exogenous Syk and Lyn. It has also been demonstrated by means of mass spectrometry that the primary phosphorylation of band 3 occurs at Y8 and Y21, while the secondary phosphorylation affects Y359 and Y904.

Abstract
A wide variety of messages, in the form of diffusible growth factors, hormones and cytokines, are carried throughout multicellular organisms to coordinate important physiological properties of target cells, such as proliferation, differentiation, migration, apoptosis and metabolism. Most messengers bind to cognate receptors on target cells, which initiate a characteristic cascade of reactions within the cell, ultimately leading to the desired response. The cellular response is defined by the combination of signalling components whose individual activity depends upon the number and type of surface receptors. Consequently the responses of different cell types to one or more stimuli can be quite disparate. A molecular understanding of the signalling pathways employed by each type of receptor therefore underlies the ability to rationalize many cellular functions and to correct disfunctions. As a well studied example of the primary signalling events that take place on the cytoplasmic leaflet of the plasma membrane following receptor activation, we will discuss how the widely expressed receptor for epidermal growth factor (EGF) causes the phosphorylation and hydrolysis of a signalling precursor, the membrane lipid phosphatidylinositol. This paradigm will be used to illustrate certain general principles of signalling, including formation of multienzyme complexes, compartmentation of second messengers and intermediates, and cross-talk between different signalling pathways.
