Regulation of Src Family Kinases Involved in T Cell Receptor Signaling by Protein-tyrosine Phosphatase CD148 (original) (raw)

Regulated Expression of the Receptor-Like Tyrosine Phosphatase CD148 on Hemopoietic Cells

The Journal of Immunology, 2004

CD148 is a receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase expressed on a wide variety of cell types. Through the use flow cytometry and immunofluorescence microscopy on tissue sections, we examined the expression of CD148 on multiple murine hemopoietic cell lineages. We found that CD148 is moderately expressed during all stages of B cell development in the bone marrow, as well as peripheral mature B cells. In contrast, CD148 expression on thymocytes and mature T cells is substantially lower. However, stimulation of peripheral T cells through the TCR leads to an increase of CD148 expression. This up-regulation on T cells can be partially inhibited by reagents that block the activity of src family kinases, calcineurin, MEK, or PI3K. Interestingly, CD148 levels are elevated on freshly isolated T cells from MRL lpr/lpr and CTLA-4-deficient mice, two murine models of autoimmunity. Together, these expression data along with previous biochemical data suggest that CD148 may play an important regulatory role to control an immune response.

CD148: A Receptor-Type Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Involved in the Regulation of Human T Cell Activation

The Journal of Immunology

Following ligation of the TCR and costimulatory molecules such as CD28, T cells proliferate and secrete cytokines. Several other cell surface molecules have been identified that are capable of augmenting activation mediated via the TCR. These include CD2, CD27, CD40 ligand, and signaling lymphocytic activation molecule. Here, we have characterized the expression and function of CD148, a recently identified receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase. CD148 is expressed at low levels on resting T cells, but is up-regulated following in vitro activation. Cross-linking CD148 with immobilized anti-CD148 mAb induced vigorous proliferation of anti-CD3 mAb-activated, highly purified peripheral blood T cells in an IL-2-dependent, cyclosporin A-sensitive manner. This effect was greatest after 8 days of in vitro culture, suggesting that this molecule is involved in the latter stages of a T cell response. CD148-induced proliferation was significantly greater for CD8+ T cells than for CD4+ T cel...

CD148 Is a Membrane Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Present in All Hematopoietic Lineages and Is Involved in Signal Transduction on Lymphocytes

Blood, 1998

Evidence is presented showing that a protein tyrosine phosphatase different from CD45 is present on the membrane of human hematopoietic cells. The molecule recognized by the monoclonal antibody 143-41, which has been classified as CD148 in the VI International Workshop on Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens, was immunopurified and sequenced. The sequence obtained from N-terminus as well as from two different CNBr-digested peptides showed a close identity with a previously described tyrosine phosphatase named HPTP-η/DEP-1. CD148 is present on all hematopoietic lineages, being expressed with higher intensity on granulocytes than on monocytes and lymphocytes. Interestingly, whereas it is clearly present on peripheral blood lymphocytes, it is poorly expressed on different lymphoid cell lines of T and B origin. When this protein tyrosine phosphatase was cocrosslinked with CD3, an inhibition of the normally observed calcium mobilization was observed. This inhibition correlates with a decre...

Tyrosine 192 within the SH2 domain of the Src-protein tyrosine kinase p56Lck regulates T-cell activation independently of Lck/CD45 interactions

Cell Communication and Signaling

Background Upon engagement of the T-cell receptor (TCR), the Src-family protein tyrosine kinase p56Lck phosphorylates components of the TCR (e.g. the TCRζ chains), thereby initiating T-cell activation. The enzymatic activity of Lck is primarily regulated via reversible and dynamic phosphorylation of two tyrosine residues, Y394 and Y505. Lck possesses an additional highly conserved tyrosine Y192, located within the SH2 domain, whose role in T-cell activation is not fully understood. Methods Knock-in mice expressing a phospho-mimetic (Y192E) form of Lck were generated. Cellular and biochemical characterization was performed to elucidate the function of Y192 in primary T cells. HEK 293T and Jurkat T cells were used for in vitro studies. Results Co-immunoprecipitation studies and biochemical analyses using T cells from LckY192E knock-in mice revealed a diminished binding of LckY192E to CD45 and a concomitant hyperphosphorylation of Y505, thus corroborating previous data obtained in Jurk...

The tyrosine phosphatase CD148 is excluded from the immunologic synapse and down-regulates prolonged T cell signaling

Journal of Cell Biology, 2003

CD148 is a receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase up-regulated on T cells after T cell receptor (TCR) stimulation. To examine the physiologic role of CD148 in TCR signaling, we used an inducible CD148-expressing Jurkat T cell clone. Expression of CD148 inhibits NFAT (nuclear factor of activated T cells) activation induced by soluble anti-TCR antibody, but not by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) loaded with staphylococcal enterotoxin superantigen (SAg) or immobilized anti-TCR antibody. Immunofluorescence microscopy revealed that the extracellular domain of CD148 mediates its exclusion from the immunologic synapse, sequestering it from potential substrates. Targeting of the CD148 phosphatase domain to the immunologic synapse potently inhibited NFAT activation by all means of triggering through the TCR. These data lead us to propose a model where CD148 function is regulated in part by exclusion from substrates in the immunologic synapse. Upon T cell–APC disengagement, CD148 can then...

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase CD148-Mediated Inhibition of T-Cell Receptor Signal Transduction Is Associated with Reduced LAT and Phospholipase Cγ1 Phosphorylation

Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2001

In this study, we investigate the role of the receptor-like protein tyrosine phosphatase CD148 in T-cell activation. Overexpression of CD148 in the Jurkat T-cell line inhibited activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor of activated T cells following T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation but not following stimulation through a heterologously expressed G protein-coupled receptor, the human muscarinic receptor subtype 1. Using a tetracycline-inducible expression system, we show that the TCR-mediated activation of both the Ras and calcium pathways was inhibited by expression of CD148 at levels that approximate those found in activated primary T cells. These effects were dependent on the phosphatase activity of CD148. Analysis of TCR-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation demonstrated that most phosphoproteins were unaffected by CD148 expression. However, phospholipase Cγ1 (PLCγ1) and LAT were strikingly hypophosphorylated in CD148-expressing cells following TCR stimulation, wh...

Structurally Distinct Phosphatases CD45 and CD148 Both Regulate B Cell and Macrophage Immunoreceptor Signaling

Immunity, 2008

The receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase (RPTP) CD148 is thought to have an inhibitory function in signaling and proliferation in nonhematopoietic cells. However, its role in the immune system has not been thoroughly studied. Our analysis of CD148 loss-of-function mice showed that CD148 has a positive regulatory function in B cells and macrophages, similar to the role of CD45 as a positive regulator of Src family kinases (SFKs). Analysis of CD148 and CD45 doubly deficient B cells and macrophages revealed hyperphosphorylation of the C-terminal inhibitory tyrosine of SFKs accompanied by substantial alterations in B and myeloid lineage development and defective immunoreceptor signaling. Because these findings suggest the C-terminal tyrosine of SFKs is a common substrate for both CD148 and CD45 phosphatases and imply a level of redundancy not previously appreciated, a reassessment of the function of CD45 in the B and myeloid lineages based on prior data from the CD45-deficient mouse is warranted.

The lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase p56lck is hyperphosphorylated on serine and tyrosine residues within minutes after activation via T cell receptor or CD2

European Journal of Immunology, 1989

Human T cells can be activated and induced to proliferate through either the antigen-specific receptor complex (TcR-CD3) or the CD2 surface molecule. Following stimulation, both serine and tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular protein have been demonstrated to occur. P S~"~, a protein tyrosine kinase associated to the inner face of the plasma membrane, is almost exclusively expressed in lymphoid cells, especiallyTcel1s.Within minutes after activation of a human Tcell-derived line (Jurkat) via stimulation of either the TcR-CD3 complex or the CD2 glycoprotein, we observed a hyperphorphosylation of p56Ick. A concomitant shift to a higher molecular weight in sodium dodecyl sulfatepolyacrylamide gel was also observed. Similar changes were obtained with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. Tryptic phosphopeptide analysis of the hyperphosphorylated form of pS6lck yielded new phosphorylated sites in serine residues and an increased tyrosine phosphorylation. These results suggest that pS6Ick may be intimately connected to the signaling pathway in T cell activation.

The Syk protein tyrosine kinase can function independently of CD45 or Lck in T cell antigen receptor signaling

The EMBO Journal, 1996

The protein tyrosine phosphatase CD45 is a critical component of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling pathway, acting as a positive regulator of Src family protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) such as Lck. Most CD45-deficient human and murine T cell lines are unable to signal through their TCRs. However, there is a CD45-deficient cell line that can signal through its TCR. We have studied this cell line to identify a TCR signaling pathway that is independent of CD45 regulation. In the course of these experiments, we found that the Syk PTK, but not the ZAP-70 PTK, is able to mediate TCR signaling independently of CD45 and of Lck. For this function, Syk requires functional kinase and SH2 domains, as well as intact phosphorylation sites in the regulatory loop of its kinase domain. Thus, differential expression of Syk is likely to explain the paradoxical phenotypes of different CD45-deficient T cells. Finally, these results suggest differences in activation requirements between two closely related PTK family members, Syk and ZAP-70. The differential activities of these two kinases suggest that they may play distinct, rather than completely redundant, roles in lymphocyte signaling.
