The insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II)/mannose-6-phosphate (M-6-P) receptor is known to participate in endocytosis as well as sorting of lysosomal enzymes and is involved in membrane trafficking through rapid cycling between cytosolic membrane compartments and the plasma membrane. Here we demonstrate that IGF-II, acting through the IGF-II/M-6-P receptor, promotes exocytosis of insulin in the pancreatic beta cell. The effect of IGF-II was evoked at nonstimulatory concentrations of glucose, was mediated by a pertussis toxin sensitive GTP-binding protein, was dependent on protein kinase C-induced phosphorylation, and was independent of changes in cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration. Since the applied concentration of IGF-II is within the range normally found free in circulation in humans, this novel signaling pathway for the IGF-II/M-6-P receptor is likely to be involved in modulation of insulin exocytosis under physiological conditions. 相似文献

Retinoic acid (RA) exerts diverse biological effects in the control of cell growth in embryogenesis and oncogenesis. These effects of RA are thought to be mediated by the nuclear retinoid receptors. Mannose-6-phosphate (M6P)/insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) receptor is a multifunctional membrane glycoprotein that is known to bind both M6P and IGF-II and function primarily in the binding and trafficking of lysosomal enzymes, the activation of transforming growth factor-beta, and the degradation of IGF-II. M6P/IGF-II receptor has recently been implicated in fetal development and carcinogenesis. Despite the functional similarities between RA and the M6P/IGF-II receptor, no direct biochemical link has been established. Here, we show that the M6P/IGF-II receptor also binds RA with high affinity at a site that is distinct from those for M6P and IGF-II, as identified by a photoaffinity labeling technique. We also show that the binding of RA to the M6P/IGF-II receptor enhances the primary functions of this receptor. The biological consequence of the interaction appears to be the suppression of cell proliferation and/or induction of apoptosis. These findings suggest that the M6P/IGF-II receptor mediates a RA response pathway that is important in cell growth regulation. This discovery of the interaction of RA with the M6P/IGF-II receptor may have important implications for our understanding of the roles of RA and the M6P/IGF-II receptor in development, carcinogenesis, and lysosomal enzyme-related diseases. 相似文献

Comparison of the binding properties of non-glycosylated, glycosylated human leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) directed at gp190/LIF-receptor beta subunit showed that most of the low affinity (nanomolar) receptors expressed by a variety of cell lines are not due to gp190. These receptors bind glycosylated LIF produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO LIF) (Kd = 6.9 nM) but not Escherichia coli-derived LIF or CHO LIF treated with endoglycosidase F. CHO LIF binding to these receptors is neither affected by anti-gp190 mAbs nor by anti-gp130 mAbs and is specifically inhibited by low concentrations of mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) (IC50 = 40 microM), suggesting that they could be related to Man-6-P receptors. The identity of this LIF binding component with the Man-6-P/insulin-like growth factor-II receptor (Man-6-P/IGFII-R) was supported by several findings. (i) It has a molecular mass very similar to that of the Man-6-P/IGFII-R (270 kDa); (ii) the complex of LIF cross-linked to this receptor is immunoprecipitated by a polyclonal anti-Man-6-P/IGFII-R antibody; (iii) this antibody inhibits LIF and IGFII binding to the receptor with comparable efficiencies; (iv) soluble Man-6-P/IGFII-R purified from serum binds glycosylated LIF (Kd = 4.3 nM) but not E. coli LIF. The potential role of Man-6-P/IGFII-R in LIF processing and biological activity is discussed. 相似文献

The cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor II receptor (M6P/IGF-II receptor) undergoes constitutive endocytosis, mediating the internalization of two unrelated classes of ligands, mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P)-containing acid hydrolases and insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II). To determine the role of ligand valency in M6P/IGF-II receptor-mediated endocytosis, we measured the internalization rates of two ligands, beta-glucuronidase (a homotetramer bearing multiple Man-6-P moieties) and IGF-II. We found that beta-glucuronidase entered the cell approximately 3-4-fold faster than IGF-II. Unlabeled beta-glucuronidase stimulated the rate of internalization of 125I-IGF-II to equal that of 125I-beta-glucuronidase, but a bivalent synthetic tripeptide capable of occupying both Man-6-P-binding sites on the M6P/IGF-II receptor simultaneously did not. A mutant receptor with one of the two Man-6-P-binding sites inactivated retained the ability to internalize beta-glucuronidase faster than IGF-II. Thus, the increased rate of internalization required a multivalent ligand and a single Man-6-P-binding site on the receptor. M6P/IGF-II receptor solubilized and purified in Triton X-100 was present as a monomer, but association with beta-glucuronidase generated a complex composed of two receptors and one beta-glucuronidase. Neither IGF-II nor the synthetic peptide induced receptor dimerization. These results indicate that intermolecular cross-linking of the M6P/IGF-II receptor occurs upon binding of a multivalent ligand, resulting in an increased rate of internalization. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) and phosphomannosylated glycoproteins bind to distinct sites on the same receptor, the IGF-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor (IGF2R). Analysis of truncated receptors (minireceptors) has been used to map the IGF-II binding site within the receptor's extracytoplasmic domain, which consists of 15 homologous repeats. A minireceptor consisting of repeat 11 contained the minimal elements for binding IGF-II, but with 5- to 10-fold lower relative binding affinity than the full-length receptor. We hypothesized that the complete, high-affinity IGF-II binding site is formed by interaction between the primary site in repeat 11 and a putative affinity-enhancing domain. To determine the minimum portion of the IGF2R's extracytoplasmic domain needed for expression of high-affinity IGF-II binding, a nested set of FLAG epitope-tagged minireceptors encompassing repeats 11 through 15 was prepared and transiently expressed in 293T cells. Minireceptors containing repeats 11-13 or 11-15 exhibited high affinity, comparable to the full-length receptor (IC50 = 1-2 nM), whereas constructs containing repeat 11 only or repeats 11-12 did not (IC50 = 10-20 nM). These data suggested that the affinity-enhancing domain is located within repeat 13, which contains a unique 43-residue insert that has approximately 50% sequence identity to the type II repeat of fibronectin. Although a repeat 13 minireceptor did not bind IGF-II on its own, an 11-13 minireceptor containing a deletion of the 43-residue insert exhibited low IGF-II binding affinity (IC50 = 10-20 nM). Expression of mutant receptors from a full-length IGF2R construct bearing a deletion of the 43-residue insert was very low relative to wild type. Depletion assays using IGF-II-Sepharose showed that the mutant receptor had lower affinity for IGF-II than the wild-type receptor. This study reveals that two independent receptor domains are involved in the formation of a high-affinity binding site for IGF-II, and that a complete repeat 13 is required for high-affinity IGF-II binding. 相似文献

We examined the signaling function of the IGF-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor (IGF-IIR) by transfecting IGF-IIR cDNAs into COS cells, where adenylyl cyclase (AC) was inhibited by transfection of constitutively activated G alpha i cDNA (G alpha i2Q205L). In cells transfected with IGF-IIR cDNA, IGF-II decreased cAMP accumulation promoted by cholera toxin or forskolin. This effect of IGF-II was not observed in untransfected cells or in cells transfected with IGF-IIRs lacking Arg2410-Lys2423. Thus, IGF-IIR, through its cytoplasmic domain, mediates the Gi-linked action of IGF-II in living cells. We also found that IGF-IIR truncated with C-terminal 28 residues after Ser2424 caused G beta gamma-dominant response of AC in response to IGF-II by activating Gi. Comparison with the G alpha i-dominant response of AC by intact IGF-IIR suggests that the C-terminal 28-residue region inactivates G beta gamma. This study not only provides further evidence that IGF-IIR has IGF-II-dependent signaling function to interact with heteromeric G proteins with distinct roles by different cytoplasmic domains, it also suggests that IGF-IIR can separate and sequestrate the G alpha and G beta gamma signals following Gi activation. 相似文献

The two mannose 6-phosphate (Man-6-P) binding sites of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor (IGF-II/MPR) have been localized to domains 1-3 and 7-9, and studies have shown that Arg435 in domain 3 and Arg 1334 in domain 9 are essential for Man-6-P binding. To determine whether the IGF-II/MPR containing a single Man-6-P binding site is functional, clonal mouse L cell lines stably transfected with either mutant bovine IGF-II/MPR cDNA, containing substitutions at position 435 and/or 1334, or the wild type receptor cDNA were assayed for their ability to sort lysosomal enzymes to the lysosome. Mutant receptors containing a single Man-6-P binding site were approximately 50% less efficient than the wild type receptor in the overall targeting of lysosomal enzymes to the lysosome. Mutant receptors containing a substitution at Arg1334 (Dom9(Ala)), in contrast to those containing a substitution at Arg435 (Dom3(Ala)), were unable to target cathepsin D and beta-hexosaminidase to the lysosome. Equilibrium binding assays using 125I-labeled beta-glucuronidase demonstrated that Dom3(Ala) and Dom9(Ala) had a Kd of 2.0 and 4.3 nM, respectively. In addition, Dom3(Ala), unlike Dom9(Ala), was unable to completely dissociate from ligand under acidic pH conditions. These data indicate that the two Man-6-P binding sites of the IGF-II/MPR are not functionally equivalent. 相似文献

The urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) plays an important role on the cell surface in mediating extracellular degradative processes and formation of active TGF-beta, and in nonproteolytic events such as cell adhesion, migration, and transmembrane signaling. We have searched for mechanisms that determine the cellular location of uPAR and may participate in its disposal. When using purified receptor preparations, we find that uPAR binds to the cation-independent, mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) receptor (CIMPR) with an affinity in the low micromolar range, but not to the 46-kD, cation-dependent, mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CDMPR). The binding is not perturbed by uPA and appears to involve domains DII + DIII of the uPAR protein moiety, but not the glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor. The binding occurs at site(s) on the CIMPR different from those engaged in binding of mannose 6-phosphate epitopes or IGF-II. To evaluate the significance of the binding, immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy studies were performed in transfected cells, and the results show that wild-type CIMPR, but not CIMPR lacking an intact sorting signal, modulates the subcellular distribution of uPAR and is capable of directing it to lysosomes. We conclude that a site within CIMPR, distinct from its previously known ligand binding sites, binds uPAR and modulates its subcellular distribution. 相似文献

The insulin-like growth factors (IGF) and insulin perform seemingly unique roles by causing the same metabolic effect: cellular hypertrophy. Although overlapping, there are different consequences to cellular hypertrophy induced by IGF and that induced by insulin. The IGF enhance the cell hypertrophy that is requisite for cell survival, hyperplasia, and differentiation, and insulin enhances cell hypertrophy primarily as a means to increase nutrient stores. The effects of IGF and insulin are controlled by the segregation of their receptors between different cell types. A model is discussed that describes the need for three hormones (IGF-I, IGF-II, and insulin) to control nutrient partitioning. Insulin receptor localization, as well as an episodic mode of secretion, evolved to perform the short-term action of clearing excess nutrients from the circulation. In contrast, a complex and interactive set of factors ensure that maximal IGF activity occurs only when conditions are optimal for growth. A relatively invariant rate of secretion and the IGF binding proteins serve to maintain a large mutable pool of IGF. This pool exists to ensure a constant supply of IGF to maintain the basal metabolic rate and to ensure that, once a cell begins to proliferate or differentiate, adequate exposure is available to complete the process even after severe short-term physiological insults. The IGF concentrations only change in response to prolonged differences in protein and energy availabilities, environmental and body temperatures, and external stress. Also, evidence is now emerging that describes a discrete role for trace nutrients in the regulation of IGF activity. In this latter regard, zinc has the notable role of targeting IGF binding proteins to the cell surface. New data are presented showing that zinc also changes the affinity of the type 1 IGF receptor and cell-associated IGF binding proteins to optimize IGF activity. 相似文献

Previous studies indicate that fetal rat heart tissue contains large amounts of insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II/mannose 6-phosphate (Man 6-P) receptor messenger RNA, with receptor messenger RNA levels falling by 20 days after birth. We examined the amount of IGF receptor protein in developing rat myocardium. To establish a model in which the role of neural, hormonal, and hemodynamic controls of IGF receptor binding could be studied, we compared binding of IGF-I and IGF-II in normally growing rat atria and ventricles with embryonic day 12 (E-12) atria and ventricles maturing in the anterior eye chamber of an adult host rat. In oculo, embryonic myocardium matures without hemodynamic load or exposure to the fetal hormonal milieu. In fetal rat hearts (E-12 to E-19), both IGF-I and IGF-II intensely bound to a protein with a molecular weight corresponding to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor. Receptors were identified using sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis autoradiography and western blot analysis using Ab3637, a specific polyclonal antibody against rat IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor antigens. This antibody competed for binding of both IGF-I and IGF-II to the band with molecular radius corresponding to 260,000 (reduced). In normally growing rat atria, IGF-I binding to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor was similar to ventricular tissue; however, there was significantly greater binding of IGF-II than of IGF-I in both atrial and ventricular tissue. High levels of IGF-II binding to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor were observed in both fetal rat atrial and ventricular grafts until 6-8 weeks in oculo. As in normally growing heart tissue, there was similar IGF-I binding to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor in atrial grafts compared with ventricular grafts from 2-8 weeks after implantation. For the first 2 weeks after grafting, the ventricular grafts had relatively higher IGF-I binding to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor compared with later time points examined. The present data indicate that atrial and ventricular binding of IGFs to the IGF-II/Man 6-P receptor decreases with age, suggesting that decreased IGF binding may be independent of postnatal hemodynamic changes. The decrease is similar in in oculo embryonic rat cardiac grafts and normally growing heart tissue.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Two manipulations are argued to distinguish between instance-based and abstract rule-based accounts of invariant learning. Three experiments examined the effects of manipulating the type of invariant feature in the learning set, and the type of training schedules prior to test. In line with traditional research, selection bias at test was present when the invariant was the consistent inclusion of a stimulus item in the learning set. However, the degree of bias was identical when the invariant was the consistent exclusion of the stimulus item. In addition, negative transfer of training was observed when subjects were trained on one learning set and then shifted training to the opposite learning set, but no positive transfer of training was observed when subjects were trained on one learning set and then continued training using the same learning set. These results are argued to be evidence for instance-based accounts of invariant learning. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II) are actively involved in neuroblastoma cell growth. In all biological fluids, they are noncovalently bound to high-affinity binding proteins. At least six species of these IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) have been identified, but their precise roles remain unclear. One of them, IGFBP-6, is produced by neuroblastoma cells in culture under certain experimental conditions and seems to be associated with the arrest of cell growth. We stably transfected IGR-N-91 and SK-N-SH neuroblastoma cells with an expression vector comprising IGFBP-6 cDNA, whose expression was placed under the control of the constitutive and ubiquitous cytomegalovirus promoter. Analyses of the cell cycle (flux cytofluorometry), mitogenic activity (radiolabeled thymidine incorporation), and the number of viable cells (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide test) showed that the mitogenic effects of serum, IGF-I, IGF-II, and des (1-3) IGF-I, a truncated IGF-I analogue with no affinity for IGFBP-6, were depressed in both transfected cell lines. With s.c. injection of transfected IGR-N-91 cells into nude mice, tumors developed in only 50-70% of cases, 1 or 2 weeks after those in controls, and were 60-90% smaller. Our findings show that IGFBP-6 influences neuroblastoma cell growth, both in vitro and in experimental xenograft development. 相似文献

Okadaic acid (OKA), a potent inhibitor of serine phosphatases at concentrations as low as 20-25 nM, induces apoptosis of R- mouse embryo fibroblasts, which are 3T3-like cells devoid of type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptors (IGF-IRs). From R- cells, we have generated (by stable transfection) cell lines with IGF-IR numbers ranging from 0 (R- cells) to >10(6) receptors per cell. The wild-type IGF-IR protects R- cells from OKA-induced apoptosis, its protective effect being exquisitely dependent on the number of receptors. A small increment in wild-type receptor number (from 15 x 10(3) to 22 x 10(3) receptors/cell) is sufficient to change R(-)-derived cells from sensitive to resistant to apoptosis. We have also studied the effect of various mutations of the IGF-IR on its ability to protect R(-)-derived cells from OKA-induced apoptosis. Our data indicate a correlation between protection from apoptosis and the ability of the receptor to respond to insulin-like growth factor I with mitogenesis. 相似文献

We compared the intracellular insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin signaling pathways in Rat1 fibroblasts expressing the equivalent number of insulin receptors and endogenous IGF-1 receptors. Insulin and IGF-1 stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of IRS-1 and Shc in a similar dose- and time-dependent manner. The time course of Shc phosphorylation by both IGF-1 and insulin was slower than that of IRS-1. Both phosphorylated IRS-1 and Shc associated with Grb2.Sos complexes, leading to p21ras activation. To compare the functional importance of p21ras for IGF-1-and insulin-induced DNA synthesis, single cell microinjection studies were performed. BrdU incorporation into newly synthesized DNA was measured by immunofluorescence microscopy to assess the functional importance of p21ras. Both IGF-1 and insulin stimulated BrdU incorporation, but the effect of IGF-1 was greater. Microinjection of anti-p21ras antibody completely inhibited both IGF-1-and insulin-induced DNA synthesis, indicating the central role of p21ras in signaling by both hormones. Signal transduction from these receptors to Grb2.Sos complexes can occur through IRS-1 and/or Shc. To assess these two possible pathways, we performed Western blots for Grb2 in anti-Shc and anti-IRS-1 immunoprecipitates and found that 5-fold more Grb2 was associated with Shc than with IRS-1 after either IGF-1 or insulin stimulation. Microinjection of anti-Shc antibody inhibited IGF-1 and insulin stimulation of DNA synthesis by 78% and 74%, respectively. By microinjecting Shc subdomains of GST fusion proteins, we found that Shc N-terminus, but not the Shc SH2, was the functionally important domain through which Shc interacts with IGF-1 and insulin receptors. Insulin stimulation caused hyperphosphorylation and decreased electrophoretic mobility of Sos, and a similar effect was seen with IGF-1, although the time course was delayed compared with insulin. Finally, IGF-1 activated mitogen-activated proten kinase activity more effectively than insulin. These data indicate that Shc, rather than IRS-1, appears to be the predominant functional link to Grb2.Sos complexes from the IGF-1 receptor, as it is from the insulin receptor. Although IGF-1 and insulin stimulate cell cycle progression with similar coupling mechanisms from the receptor to Shc, to Grb2.Sos, to p21ras, the delayed IGF-1 induced mobility shift of Sos could lead to, at least in part, more efficient coupling to mitogen-activated protein kinase. These findings might explain the greater mitogenic activity of IGF-1 compared with insulin. 相似文献

Recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (hIGF-I) was reacted with azidobenzoyl hydroxysuccinimide to produce a mixture of photoactive hIGF-I derivatives. The mixture was purified by reversed-phase HPLC to yield three mono-substituted azidobenzoyl hIGF-Is. One of the derivatives was identified by amino acid sequencing as N epsilon B28-monoazidobenzoyl hIGF-I. This derivative was indistinguishable from native hIGF-I when bioassayed in Rat-1 fibroblasts. A 120-kDa band, the alpha subunit of the IGF-I receptor, was specifically labeled in Rat-1 plasma membranes by this photoprobe. The labeling of this band was reduced by hIGF-I at 1 nM and completely abolished by hIGF-I, but not insulin, at 100 nM, indicating the specificity of the photolabeling of the IGF-I receptor by this fully active IGF-I photoprobe. 相似文献

Neuronal replacement occurs in the forebrain of juvenile and adult songbirds. To address the molecular processes that govern this replacement, we cloned the zebra finch insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) cDNA, a factor known to regulate neuronal development and survival in other systems, and examined its expression pattern by in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry in juvenile and adult songbird brains. The highest levels of IGF-II mRNA expression occurred in three nuclei of the song system: in the high vocal center (HVC), in the medial magnocellular nucleus of the neostriatum (mMAN), which projects to HVC, and to a lesser extent in the robust nucleus of the archistriatum (RA), which receives projections from HVC. IGF-II mRNA expression was developmentally regulated in zebra finches. In canary HVC, monthly changes in IGF-II mRNA expression covaried with previously reported monthly differences in neuron incorporation. Combining retrograde tracers with in situ hybridization and immunocytochemistry, we determined that the HVC neurons that project to area X synthesize the IGF-II mRNA, whereas the adjacent RA-projecting neurons accumulate the IGF-II peptide. Our findings raise the possibility that within HVC IGF-II acts as a paracrine signal between nonreplaceable area X-projecting neurons and replaceable RA-projecting neurons, a mode of action that is compatible with the involvement of IGF-II with the replacement of neurons. Additional roles for IGF-II expression in songbird brain are likely, because expression also occurs in some brain areas outside the song system, among them the cerebellar Purkinje cells in which neurogenesis is not known to occur. 相似文献

We evaluated levels of mannose-6-phosphate/insulin growth factor-II receptor (M6P/IGFII-R) RNA in 37 breast cancer tumors by quantitative in situ hybridization using a computer-aided image analyzer and compared them to cathepsin D RNA and protein levels in the same tissues. Breast cancer cells expressed more cathepsin D and M6P/IGFII-R RNA than fibroblasts in the same tumors. We found a significant increase of cathepsin D RNA (P = 1 x 10(-5)) and M6P/IGFII-R RNA (P = 0.02) in breast cancer cells compared to epithelial cells of benign mastopathies. There was a positive correlation (r = 0.65; P = 1 x 10(-5)) between M6P/IGFII-R and cathepsin D RNA levels measured on serial sections. This contrasted with the inverse relationship of these 2 RNA species in breast cancer cell lines where estrogen down-regulates M6P/IGFII receptor RNA levels. Moreover, in vivo we found no correlation between the M6P/IGFII-R RNA level and menopausal or estrogen receptor status, suggesting that the in vivo regulation of M6P/IGFII-R RNA differs from its in vitro regulation in cell lines. The M6P/IGFII-R RNA level was not correlated with cathepsin D status, histological grade, and tumor size but was significantly higher in lymph node-positive tumors (P = 0.047). The M6P/IGFII-R could therefore be an additional parameter to predict aggressive breast cancers, complementing cathepsin D assays and other more classical prognostic parameters. 相似文献

The bovine cation-dependent mannose 6-phosphate receptor (CD-MPR) is a type 1 transmembrane protein that cycles between the trans-Golgi network, endosomes, and the plasma membrane. When the terminal 40 residues were deleted from the 67-amino acid cytoplasmic tail of the CD-MPR, the half-life of the receptor was drastically decreased and the mutant receptor was recovered in lysosomes. Analysis of additional cytoplasmic tail truncation mutants and alanine-scanning mutants implicated amino acids 34-39 as being critical for avoidance of lysosomal degradation. The cytoplasmic tail of the CD-MPR was partially effective in preventing the lysosomal membrane protein Lamp1 from entering lysosomes. Complete exclusion required both the CD-MPR cytoplasmic tail and transmembrane domain. The transmembrane domain alone had just a minor effect on the distribution of Lamp1. These findings indicate that the cytoplasmic tail of the CD-MPR contains a signal that prevents the receptor from trafficking to lysosomes. The transmembrane domain of the CD-MPR also contributes to this function. 相似文献
