Deficiency of Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5-phosphatase 1 affects platelet responses and thrombus growth.

Effects of Src Homology Domain 2 (SH2)-Containing Inositol Phosphatase (SHIP), SH2-Containing Phosphotyrosine Phosphatase (SHP)-1, and SHP-2 SH2 Decoy Proteins on FcgRIIB1-Effector Interactions and Inhibitory Functions

Hepatocyte growth factor inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced oxidative stress via epithelial growth factor receptor degradation.

OBJECTIVE Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome, which results in multiple organ failure. Our recent reports demonstrated that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) attenuated angiotensin II-induced oxidative stress via epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) degradation in vascular smooth muscle cells. Here, we examined whether HGF can protect against s...

A Regulatory Role for Src Homology 2 Domain–Containing Inositol 5′-Phosphatase (Ship) in Phagocytosis Mediated by Fcγ Receptors and Complement Receptor 3 (αMβ2; Cd11b/Cd18)

The Src homology 2 domain-containing inositol 5'-phosphatase (SHIP) is recruited to immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM)-containing proteins, thereby suppressing phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase)-dependent pathways. The role of SHIP in phagocytosis, a PI 3-kinase-dependent pathway, is unknown. Overexpression of SHIP in macrophages led to an inhibition of phagocytosis ...

The src homology 2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase 2 regulates primary T-dependent immune responses and Th cell differentiation.

The src homology 2 domain-containing tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) plays an important role in development and in growth factor receptor signaling pathways, yet little is known of its role in the immune system. We generated mice expressing a dominant-negative version of the protein, SHP2(CS), specifically in T cells. In SHP2(CS) mice, T cell development appears normal with regard to both negativ...

HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY SHIP-2 forms a tetrameric complex with filamin, actin, and GPIb-IX-V: localization of SHIP-2 to the activated platelet actin cytoskeleton

The platelet receptor for the von Willebrand factor (VWF) glycoprotein Ib-IX-V (GPIb-IX-V) complex mediates platelet adhesion at sites of vascular injury. The cytoplasmic tail of the GPIb subunit interacts with the actin-binding protein, filamin, anchoring the receptor in the cytoskeleton. In motile cells, the second messenger phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5 trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) induces s...
