Abstract
Cancer cells employ a variety of mechanisms to evade apoptosis and senescence. Pre-eminent among these is the aberrant co-expression of growth factors and their ligands, forming an autocrine growth loop that promotes tumour formation and progression. One growth loop whose transforming potential has been repeatedly demonstrated is the CSF-1/CSF-1R axis. Expression of CSF-1 and/or CSF-1R has been documented in a number of human malignancies, including breast, prostate and ovarian cancer and classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL). This review summarizes the large body of work undertaken to study the role of this cytokine receptor system in malignant transformation. These studies have attributed a key role to the CSF-1/CSF-1R axis in supporting tumour cell survival, proliferation and enhanced motility. Moreover, increasing evidence implicates paracrine interactions between CSF-1 and its receptor in defining a tumour-permissive and immunosuppressive tumour-associated stroma. Against this background, we briefly consider the prospects for therapeutic targeting of this system in malignant disease.

Abstract
A parallel approach to designing crystallization constructs for the c-FMS kinase domain was implemented, resulting in proteins suitable for structural studies. Sequence alignment and limited proteolysis were used to identify and eliminate unstructured and surface-exposed domains. A small library of chimeras was prepared in which the kinase insert domain of FMS was replaced with the kinase insert domain of previously crystallized receptor-tyrosine kinases. Characterization of the newly generated FMS constructs by enzymology and thermoshift assays demonstrated similar activities and compound binding to the FMS full-length cytoplasmic domain. Two chimeras were evaluated for crystallization in the presence and absence of a variety of ligands resulting in crystal structures, and leading to a successful structure-based drug design project for this important inflammation target.

Abstract
CSF-1 and its receptor appear to be important in the physiology of several different neoplasms including those of the breast and female reproductive tract. Levels of CSF-1 and CSF-1R expression appear to correlate with tumor cell invasiveness and an adverse clinical prognosis and may be modulated by hormones involved in normal lactogenic differentiation. Also, it appears that CSF-1R activates several different signal transduction pathways but only some of these appear to have direct bearing on tumor cell phenotypes and the activation of pathways in specific cell types may depend on factors above and beyond the receptor itself.

Abstract
The colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) receptor is a protein-tyrosine kinase that regulates the proliferation and differentiation of monocyte and macrophage precursors. Binding of CSF-1 to its receptor results in activation of the kinase domain and autophosphorylation on a number of tyrosine residues. Phosphorylated tyrosine residues function as binding sites for SH2 domain-containing signaling proteins. It is known that activated receptors are internalized and degraded, but the mechanics of this process remain largely unknown. Recently, evidence has started to emerge that the ubiquitin-protein ligase c-Cbl is involved in CSF-1 receptor degradation. In addition, there is evidence that the CSF-1 receptor carboxy-terminus is involved in down regulation of the receptor. Here we show that the c-Cbl tyrosine kinase-binding (TKB) domain binds in vitro and in vivo to the CSF-1 receptor. Binding is dependent on the receptor's protein-kinase activity. Deletion of the carboxy-terminus or mutation of Tyr 973 blocks binding. We further provide evidence that the CSF-1 receptor's carboxy-terminus is a substrate for autophosphorylation. Our observations are consistent with a model in which receptor autophosphorylation at Tyr 973 creates a binding site for c-Cbl. Association of c-Cbl with the receptor leads to ubiquitination, followed by receptor degradation.

Abstract
Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF or CSF-1) acts to regulate the development and function of cells of the macrophage lineage. Murine myeloid FDC-P1 cells transfected with the CSF-1 receptor (FD/WT) adopt a macrophage-like morphology when cultured in CSF-1. This process is abrogated in FDC-P1 cells transfected with the CSF-1 receptor with a tyrosine to phenyalanine substitution at position 807 (FD/807), suggesting that a molecular interaction critical to differentiation signaling is lost (Bourette, R. P., Myles, G. M., Carlberg, K., Chen, A. R., and Rohrschneider, L. R. (1995) Cell Growth Differ. 6, 631--645). A detailed examination of lysates of CSF-1-treated FD/807 cells by two-dimensional SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) revealed a number of proteins whose degree of tyrosine phosphorylation was modulated by the Y807F mutation. Included in this category were three phosphorylated proteins that co-migrated with p46/52(Shc). Immunoprecipitation, Western blotting, and in vitro binding studies suggest that they are indeed p46/52(Shc). A key regulator of differentiation in a number of cell systems, ERK was observed to exhibit an activity that correlated with the relative degree of differentiation induced by CSF-1 in the two cell types. Transfection of cells with a non-tyrosine-phosphorylatable form of p46/52(Shc) prevented the normally observed CSF-1-mediated macrophage differentiation as determined by adoption of macrophage-like morphology and expression of the monocyte/macrophage lineage cell surface marker, Mac-1. These results are the first to suggest that p46/52(Shc) may play a role in CSF-1-induced macrophage differentiation. Additionally, a number of proteins were identified by two-dimensional SDS-PAGE whose degree of tyrosine phosphorylation is also modulated by the Y807F substitution. This group of molecules may contain novel signaling molecules important in macrophage differentiation.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl and its association with signal-transducing molecules in response to macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) were analyzed by using cell lines which express the wild-type and a mutant M-CSF receptor, Fms. We found that in a clone, F723 TF-1 cells expressing mutant Fms in which tyrosine 723 had been substituted with phenylalanine, the M-CSF stimulation-dependent association between Cbl and Fms was markedly impaired. However, phosphorylation of Cbl and its association with the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase were induced in these mutant cells as seen in the wild-type fms transfectant. These results suggest that phosphorylation of tyrosine 723 is particularly important for the recruitment of Cbl to the M-CSF receptor, but is not required for the phosphorylation and binding of Cbl to signal-transducing molecules such as p85.

Abstract
Treatment of the BAC1.2F5 macrophage cell line with Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (M-CSF) resulted in a rapid induction of vesiculation that was reminiscent of macropinocytosis. Time-lapse micrography showed that these vesicles initiated as small vesicles at the cell periphery, but grew in size and migrated with time to a perinuclear localisation after growth factor stimulation. Immunofluorescence showed that the M-CSF receptor (c-fms) associated with the small vesicles and also the larger phase-bright vesicles. Treatment with two distinct inhibitors showed that the rapid initiation of vesicle formation was not dependent on phosphatidylinositol-3′ (PI-3) kinase activity; however, the subsequent maintenance, maturation and translocation of the large, phase-bright, c-fms-containing vesicles was dependent on PI-3 kinase activity. The inhibitors could also reverse the further maturation of preformed vesicles. The inhibition of vesicle trafficking and maturation correlated with ablation of M-CSF-induced PI-3 kinase activity associated with p110(alpha). These data demonstrate a role for PI-3 kinase in vesicle trafficking and maintenance. PI-3 kinase activity was also necessary for the macropinocytotic response in macrophages, a process that is essential for efficient antigen processing and presentation in macrophage-like cells.

Abstract
The M-CSF receptor (M-CSFR) is expressed in monocytes-macrophages and their progenitors, and drives growth and development of this blood cell lineage. The M-CSFR is a member of a small family of growth factor receptors exhibiting related structures but distinct tissue-specific functions. This review discusses the early molecular events in the M-CSF signaling mechanisms, positive signals, negative signals, the possible organization of individual signaling pathways, and the problem of achieving specificity in the signal transduction mechanism.

Abstract
PURPOSE CSF-1 and its receptor have both been previously implicated in the basic biology and clinical course of mammary and female reproductive tract neoplasms. A recent study (1) demonstrated that expression of this receptor correlated with local relapse in early-stage breast cancer patients. In this communication, we investigated the role that this receptor/ligand pair plays in modulating cellular responses to ionizing radiation in a mammary epithelial cell line HC11. METHODS AND MATERIALS The radiosensitivity of HC11 clonal cells transfected to overexpress either the wild-type CSF-1 receptor or CSF-1 receptor mutated at one of the two major autophosphorylation sites (TYR-->PHE 807 or TYR-->PHE 721) was quantitated by standard in vitro clonogenic assays. RESULTS We demonstrated that a signal transduction pathway regulated by the phosphorylation of TYR-807 of CSF-1 receptor appears to play a major role in controlling the radiosensitivity of murine mammary epithelial cells. CONCLUSIONS Our observations offer insights into potential pharmacologic and gene-therapeutic approaches for the modification of radiation response of mammary neoplasms.

Abstract
Fms is a tyrosine kinase-containing receptor for macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) that regulates survival, growth, and differentiation of cells along the monocyte/macrophage lineage. M-CSF stimulation of murine myeloid FDC-P1 cells expressing Fms resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of signal transduction proteins, including an unidentified 100-kDa protein. This 100-kDa protein associated with the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 but not with the related phosphatase SHP-1. The kinetics of tyrosine phosphorylation of p100 and SHP-2 suggest that p100 may be a direct substrate of SHP-2. p100 bound directly to the SH2 domains of both SHP-2 and the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. The 100-kDa protein did not appear to bind directly to Fms, Ship, Cbl, Shc, or Grb2, although all of these proteins were coimmunoprecipitated with p85 after M-CSF stimulation. Association of p100 with SHP-2 and p85 did not require the major autophosphorylation sites on Fms nor binding of p85 to Fms. A tyrosine phosphorylated protein of 100 kDa also coprecipitated with SHP-2 from several other myeloid cell lines after M-CSF stimulation but was not seen in immunoprecipitates from Rat2 fibroblasts expressing Fms. Stimulation of FDC-P1 cells with additional cytokines also resulted in coprecipitation of a 100-kDa protein with SHP-2. p100 may therefore be a common component of the signaling pathways of cytokine receptors in myeloid cells.

Abstract
Tyrosine autophosphorylation of the v-Fms oncogene product results in the formation of high affinity binding sites for cellular proteins with Src homology 2 (SH2) domains that are involved in various signal cascades. Tryptic digestion of the autophosphorylated v-Fms and of its cellular counterpart, the feline c-Fms polypeptide, gave rise to at least six common major phosphopeptides, four of which have been characterized previously. Employing site-directed mutagenesis and phosphopeptide mapping of in vitro phosphorylated glutathione S-transferase v-Fms fusion proteins as well as full-length v-Fms molecules expressed in various cells, we show here that Tyr543 of the juxtamembrane domain and Tyr696 of the kinase insert domain constitute major autophosphorylation sites. Recombinant fusion proteins containing the tyrosine-phosphorylated kinase insert domain bind the growth factor receptor bound protein 2 and the p85 and p110 subunits of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. In contrast, fusion proteins containing the juxtamembrane domain phosphorylated on Tyr543 fail to bind any of the known SH2 domain-containing cellular proteins but associate specifically with an as yet undefined 55-kDa cellular protein that by itself is phosphorylated on tyrosine.

Abstract
Macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) receptor has been previously reported to be present in osteoclasts both at mRNA and protein levels. However, the biochemical interactions between M-CSF and its receptor on osteoclasts are less well characterized than in mononuclear phagocytes. In this study, we show that (1) 125I-labeled M-CSF ligand specifically binds to the M-CSF receptor on osteoclasts by autoradiography; (2) binding of M-CSF to the receptor stimulates protein tyrosine phosphorylation in osteoclasts by immunostaining; (3) oxygen-derived free radicals produced by calvarial osteoclasts are increased by M-CSF stimulation (1.37 +/- 0.08, n = 10, P < 0.01); and (4) bone resorption in calvarial explants is enhanced by M-CSF (1.153 +/- 0.09, n = 10, p < 0.001). Thus, our data provide multiple lines of evidences that mouse calvarial osteoclasts are activated by M-CSF. These data suggest that under the conditions present in the calvarial model, M-CSF activates osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
Cell transformation is characterized by overt changes in growth control and cell morphology. To study the role of tyrosine residues Y705 and Y807 of v-Fms of the McDonough strain of feline sarcoma virus in cell transformation we replaced them individually with phenylalanine residues. Cells expressing the mutant genes showed mitogenic properties similar to wild-type v-Fms transformed cells. However, the morphology of cells expressing the Y807F mutant remained the same as nontransformed cells. Four phosphoproteins of 190, 120, 55 and 50 kDa were detected in cells expressing the wild-type but were absent in cells expressing the mutant Y807F-v-fms gene.

Abstract
The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) alpha and beta receptors undergo dimerization as a consequence of ligand binding. Depending on the PDGF isoform (PDGF-AA, -AB or -BB), homodimers or heterodimers of receptors are formed. In this study, we have used transfected porcine aortic endothelial cells, coexpressing cDNAs for the alpha receptor and the beta receptor at comparable levels, to investigate the properties of the alpha beta-heterodimeric receptor complex. PDGF-AB, which mainly induced alpha beta-heterodimeric complexes, was the most efficient isoform for stimulating mitogenicity. Actin reorganization, in the form of circular membrane ruffling and chemotaxis, was induced by PDGF-AB and PDGF-BB, but not by PDGF-AA, thus indicating that the beta receptor in the homodimeric or heterodimeric configuration was required for induction of motility responses. The molecular basis for the apparent receptor dimer-specific properties was examined by analyzing receptor autophosphorylation and phosphorylation of substrates. The alpha receptor was found to be phosphorylated at an additional tyrosine residue, Tyr754, in the heterodimeric complex as compared to the alpha alpha receptor homodimer. Phosphorylation of this tyrosine residue could permit the binding of a specific signal-tranducing protein. A candidate is a 134,000-M(r) protein, which was shown to associate preferentially with the alpha receptor in the heterodimeric receptor complex. It is possible that phosphorylated Tyr754 in the alpha receptor mediates activation of specific signal-tranducing molecules like the 134,000-M(r) substrate, and thereby initiates signal-tranduction pathways from the alpha beta receptor heterodimer, which are distinct from those initiated via homodimeric receptor complexes.

Abstract
Although the hairy cells (HCs) of hairy cell leukaemia (HCL) are now thought to be a form of activated B cell, they have long been known to possess certain monocytoid characteristics. Since the proto-oncogene c-fms is a feature of cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage, we examined HCs for c-fms expression. We found that approximately 80% of peripheral blood HCs expressed the c-fms protein (8/8 cases). Expression of the 150 kD protein by HCs was shown using three different techniques, APAAP, immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation, using two different antibodies. Other mature B cell lymphoproliferative disorders examined (PLL, CLL and multiple myeloma) did not express c-fms. We also examined the c-fms expression of normal B-cells: both the in vivo activated (low density) fraction of tonsil B cells and tonsil B cells activated in vitro with SAC plus IL-2 expressed the c-fms protein. As in the case of monocytes c-fms expression by HCs was shown to be down regulated by its ligand M-CSF, and by TNF alpha, both caused a decrease in the receptor expression from 80% to 30% and in the intensity of staining from 6 to 3 x 10(4) molecules/cell. However, as for monocytes, GM-CSF treatment of HCs had no effect on the expression of c-fms; alpha IFN also had no effect. M-CSF treatment of HCs also induced phosphorylation of c-fms, and a number of other proteins, on tyrosine. However, M-CSF was unable to induce HC proliferation either alone or in combination with IL-2, IL-4 or IL-6; in addition it had no effect on HC proliferation induced by SAC, anti-mu or TNF alpha. In addition, M-CSF either alone, or in combination with the above cytokines, had no effect on the differentiated state of HCs as shown by both immunoglobulin secretion and surface antigen expression. M-CSF also had no effect on the morphology or long-term survival of HCs in culture. This study therefore demonstrates that both HCs and activated B-cells express c-fms, and that M-CSF binds to and activates its receptor on HCs. Although c-fms and several other proteins were shown to be phosphorylated in response to M-CSF, the functional consequences of this phosphorylation remain unclear.

Abstract
Four tyrosine residues have been identified as phosphorylation sites in the tyrosine kinase isoform of the heparin-binding fibroblast growth factor receptor flg (FGF-R1). Baculoviral-insect cell-derived recombinant FGF-R1 was phosphorylated and fragmented with trypsin while immobilized on heparin-agarose beads. Phosphotyrosine peptides were purified by chromatography on immobilized anti-phosphotyrosine antibody and analyzed by Edman degradation and electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. Tyrosine residue 653, which is in a homologous spatial position to major autophosphorylation sites in the catalytic domain of the src and insulin receptor kinases, is the major intracellular FGF-R1 phosphorylation site. Residue 766 in the COOH-terminus outside the kinase domain is a secondary site. Tyrosine residues 154 and 307, which are in the extracellular domain of transmembrane receptor isoforms and are in an unusual sequence context for tyrosine phosphorylation, were also phosphorylated.

Abstract
In haemopoietic cells, proliferation, commitment to development, lineage restriction and survival via suppression of apoptosis can all be controlled by haemopoietic growth factors. The mechanisms underlying the regulation of these events can now be studied since recombinant forms of most of these haemopoietic growth factors are now available. Recent advances in cell purification techniques and the development of multipotent cell lines (see Spangrude et al, 1988; Whetton, 1990; Heyworth et al, 1988, 1990a; Jones et al, 1990) have provided suitable cell populations on which to study the cellular signalling events associated with differentiation and lineage restriction. This process has started with the elucidation of the structure and expression of many of the myeloid growth factor receptors, which should now facilitate progress in the study of the signal transduction mechanisms these growth factors employ. Another important facet of these studies will be to determine whether a single growth factor with multiple target cell types, ranging from multipotent cells to postmitotic cells (e.g. neutrophils), employs distinct signalling mechanisms depending on the target cell in question. The cellular signalling events elicited by each of these growth factors and the ways in which they can regulate the transcriptional activation of genes associated with specific developmental events are going to be key areas of haemopoietic research in the next few years.

Abstract
Mouse NIH 3T3 fibroblasts transfected with human colony stimulating factor-1 receptor produced diacylglycerol in response to CSF1 and this correlated with elevated phosphatidylcholine hydrolyzing activity measured in an in vitro assay. Treatment of cells with the isoflavone derivative genistein attenuated PC hydrolysis in vitro suggesting a role for CSF1R tyrosine kinase activity. A CSF1R mutant lacking 67 amino acids of the kinase insert domain, which may affect the association of receptor with certain substrates, stimulated PC hydrolysis in response to CSF1. Coupling to PC hydrolysis is likely a general property of CSF1R and the kinase insert domain is dispensable for this activity.

Abstract
The protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) are a large and structurally diverse family of enzymes. The conserved catalytic domain held in common by each member of this family is a self-contained 250-300 amino acid unit bearing sixteen highly conserved linear sequence elements, several of which have been shown to be important to the catalytic activity of this domain. The enzymic activity of the PTKs is clearly an evolutionarily successful theme, and at least 10 distinct morphotypes have been described. Many of these resemble cell surface receptors for growth factors, and for a small sub-set of these receptors a ligand has been discovered. The remainder are located intracellularly and presumably sense and respond to appropriate metabolic cues by exerting their physiologically powerful enzymic activity. A detailed examination of the structure/function relationships of the PTKs and their catalytic domains is particularly revealing in trying to establish the roles that these proteins play in signal transduction in eukaryotic cells.
