Inhibition of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor signaling and microglial proliferation by anti-CD45RO: role of Hck tyrosine kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt.

Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Akt Role of Hck Tyrosine Kinase and Microglial Proliferation by Anti-CD45RO: Colony-Stimulating Factor Signaling and Inhibition of Granulocyte-Macrophage

Hck expression correlates with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-induced proliferation in HL-60 cells.

The human myeloid cell line HL-60 expresses approximately 300 high-affinity granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor receptors (GM-CSFRs), yet treatment of these cells with GM-CSF does not result in enhanced cellular proliferation or increases in protein tyrosine phosphorylation. In contrast, GM-CSF induces rapid increases in protein tyrosine phosphorylation and proliferative responses ...

Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-activated signaling pathways in human neutrophils. I. Tyrosine phosphorylation-dependent stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and inhibition by phorbol esters.

Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) is a cytosolic enzyme that plays key roles in mediating signaling through many receptors. The heterodimeric form of PI3-kinase is made up of a regulatory subunit, p85, and a catalytic subunit, p110. Although granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) has been shown to activate PI3-kinase, the mechanisms by which this activation is mediat...

Two distinct signaling pathways downstream of Janus kinase 2 play redundant roles for antiapoptotic activity of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor.

Human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (hGM-CSF) induces proliferation and sustains the viability of the mouse interleukin-3-dependent cell line BA/F3 expressing the hGM-CSF receptor. Analysis of the antiapoptosis activity of GM-CSF receptor betac mutants showed that box1 but not the C-terminal region containing tyrosine residues is essential for GM-CSF-dependent antiapoptotic a...

Phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase and SH2-containing inositol phosphatase (SHIP) are recruited by distinct positive and negative growth-regulatory domains in the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor receptor.

Activation of both positive and "negative" or anti-proliferative signals has emerged as a common paradigm for regulation of cell growth through cell surface receptors that regulate immune responses. SHP-1 and -2 and the novel 5'-inositol phosphatase SHIP have recently been shown to function as growth inhibitory molecules in immune receptor signaling. In the current study, we have identified dis...
