T Cell Antigen Receptor-Mediated Activation of Phospholipase C Requires Tyrosine Phosphorylation

Abstract: Triggering of the antigen-specific T cell receptor-CD3 complex (TCR-CD3) stimulates a rapid phospholipase C-mediated hydrolysis of inositol phospholipids, resulting in the production of second messengers and in T cell activation and proliferation. The role of tyrosine phosphorylation in these events was investigated with a tyrosine protein kinase (TPK) inhibitor, genistein. At doses that inhibited TPK activity and tyrosine phosphorylation of the TCR zeta subunit, but not phospholipase C activity, genistein pre… Show more

“…These include (1) immunoblotting of DGK~ using anti-phosphotyrosine and -phosphoserine antibodies, (2) isoelectrofocusing of the cell extracts in urea-containing gels followed by immunoblotting with anti-DGKa antibody, and (3) side-by-side comparison of the mobility of the enzyme proteins upon Western blotting. We therefore concluded that protein kinases known to be activated immediately after the TcR occupancy [15,16], were not directly involved in the DGKc~ translocation. The present work suggests a novel function of DGKa in nuclear phospholipid metabolism, although the mechanism of its translocation to the nucleus could not be elucidated.…”

“…The activation of the T-cell receptor (TcR)/CD3 complex initially results in tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of proteins followed immediately by phosphoinositide turnover [15,16]. This initial signal transduction is followed at the second stage by the expression at the cell surface of high-affinity interleukin (IL)-2 receptors [17].…”

“…Following mechanical disruption of splenocytes on a wire mesh screen, RBC were removed by osmotic lysis in ACK buffer (NH 4 Cl, KHCO 3 , and EDTA). Splenocytes were then resuspended in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FCS, L-glutamine, penicillin-streptomycin, and 2-ME (complete medium).…”

“…For several years it appeared that the early events of T lymphocyte activation paralleled those of several receptor-mediated, Ca++-dependent, activation schemes that involve Gprotein activation of a phospholipase C that catalyzes the breakdown of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) into the second messengers, InsP3 and DAG (Berridge and Irvine, 1984). However, several recent studies have emphasized the role of tyrosine phosphorylation events in T lymphocyte activation (June et aL, 1990;Mustelin et al, 1990;Samelson et al, 1990), and two recent studies have cast doubt on the necessity of phosphoinositide hydrolysis for T lymphocyte activation. In a T-cell hybridoma carrying transfected TCR chains, interleukin 2 (IL-2) production in response to antigen and anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies (MAb), comparable with that in the parent T-cell line, occurred despite much reduced production of inositol phosphates (Sussman et al, 1988).…”
