dual specificity phosphatase dusp 4 is induced by platelet derived growth factor bb in an erk1 2 stat3 and p53 dependent manner
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2019Co-Authors: Glenda Eger, Niki Sarri, Charlotte Rorsman, Johan LennartssonAbstract:Abstract Dual specificity phosphatase (DUSP) 4 has been described as a negative regulator of MAP kinase signaling, in particular for the ERK1/2 and JNK pathways. We found that DUSP4 expression was upregulated in response to prolonged platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB stimulation. The PDGF-BB-induced DUSP4 expression was dependent on ERK1/2, STAT3 and p53. We found that inhibition of ERK1/2 effectively reduced DUSP4 mRNA levels, whereas STAT3 was necessary for maintaining p53 expression. p53 has binding sites in the DUSP4 promoter and was found to promote DUSP4 expression.

Expression of protein-tyrosine phosphatases in Acute Myeloid Leukemia cells: FLT3 ITD sustains high levels of DUSP6 expression
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2012Co-Authors: Deepika Arora, Susanne Köthe, Monique Van Den Eijnden, Rob Hooft Van Huijsduijnen, Florian Heidel, Thomas Fischer, Sebastian Scholl, Benjamin Tölle, Sylvia-annette Böhmer, Johan LennartssonAbstract:Protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are important regulators of cellular signaling and changes in PTP activity can contribute to cell transformation. Little is known about the role of PTPs in Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML). The aim of this study was therefore to establish a PTP expression profile in AML cells and to explore the possible role of FLT3 ITD (Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 with internal tandem duplication), an important oncoprotein in AML for PTP gene expression. PTP mRNA expression was analyzed in AML cells from patients and in cell lines using a RT-qPCR platform for detection of transcripts of 92 PTP genes. PTP mRNA expression was also analyzed based on a public microarray data set for AML patients. Highly expressed PTPs in AML belong to all PTP subfamilies. Very abundantly expressed PTP genes include PTPRC, PTPN2, PTPN6, PTPN22, DUSP1, DUSP6, DUSP10, PTP4A1, PTP4A2, PTEN, and ACP1 . PTP expression was further correlated with the presence of FLT3 ITD, focusing on a set of highly expressed dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs). Elevated expression of DUSP6 in patients harboring FLT3 ITD was detected in this analysis. The mechanism and functional role of FLT3 ITD-mediated upregulation of DUSP6 was then explored using pharmacological inhibitors of FLT3 ITD signal transduction and si/shRNA technology in human and murine cell lines. High DUSP6 expression was causally associated with the presence of FLT3 ITD and dependent on FLT3 ITD kinase activity and ERK signaling. DUSP6 depletion moderately increased ERK1/2 activity but attenuated FLT3 ITD-dependent cell proliferation of 32D cells. In conclusion, DUSP6 may play a contributing role to FLT3 ITD-mediated cell transformation.

regulation of angiopoietin 1 tie 2 receptor signaling in endothelial cells by dual specificity phosphatases 1 4 and 5
Journal of the American Heart Association, 2013Co-Authors: Raquel Echavarria, Sabah N A HussainAbstract:Background Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) promotes survival and migration of endothelial cells, in part through the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways downstream of Tie-2 receptors. Dual-specificity phosphatases (DUSPs) dephosphorylate phosphotyrosine and phosphoserine/phosphothreonine residues on target MAPKs. The mechanisms by which DUSPs modulate MAPK activation in Ang-1/Tie-2 receptor signaling are unknown in endothelial cells. Methods and Results Expression of various DUSPs in human umbilical vein endothelial cells exposed to Ang-1 was measured. The functional roles of DUSPs in Ang-1-induced regulation of MAPK activation, endothelial cell survival, migration, differentiation, and permeability were measured using selective siRNA oligos. Ang-1 differentially induces DUSP1, DUSP4, and DUSP5 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells through activation of the PI-3 kinase, ERK1/2, p38, and SAPK/JNK pathways. Lack-of-function siRNA screening revealed that DUSP1 preferentially dephosphorylates p38 protein and is involved in Ang-1-induced cell migration and differentiation. DUSP4 preferentially dephosphorylates ERK1/2, p38, and SAPK/JNK proteins and, under conditions of serum deprivation, is involved in Ang-1-induced cell migration, several antiapoptotic effects, and differentiation. DUSP5 preferentially dephosphorylates ERK1/2 proteins and is involved in cell survival and inhibition of permeability. Conclusions DUSP1, DUSP4, and DUSP5 differentially modulate MAPK signaling pathways downstream of Tie-2 receptors, thus highlighting the importance of these phosphatases to Ang-1-induced angiogenesis.

a screen for key genes and pathways involved in high quality brush hair in the yangtze river delta white goat
PLOS ONE, 2017Co-Authors: Haiyan Guo, Guohu Cheng, Hao Zhang, Kangle QinAbstract:The Yangtze River Delta White Goat is the only goat breed that produces high-quality brush hair, or type III hair, which is specialized for use in top-grade writing brushes. There has been little research, especially molecular research, on the traits that result in high-quality brush hair in the Yangtze River Delta White Goat. To explore the molecular mechanisms of the formation of high-quality brush hair, High-throughput RNA-Seq technology was used to compare skin samples from Yangtze River Delta White Goats that produce high-quality hair and non high-quality hair for identification of the important genes and related pathways that might influence the hair quality traits. The results showed that 295 genes were expressed differentially between the goats with higher and lower hair quality, respectively. Of those genes, 132 were up-regulated, 62 were down-regulated, and 101 were expressed exclusively in the goats with high-quality brush hair. Gene Ontology and Metabolic Pathway Significant Enrichment analyses of the differentially expressed genes indicated that the MAP3K1, DUSP1, DUSP6 and the MAPK signaling pathway might play important roles in the traits important for high-quality brush hair.

methylation analysis of cmtm3 and DUSP1 gene promoters in high quality brush hair in the yangtze river delta white goat
Gene, 2018Co-Authors: Wang Qiang, Haiyan Guo, Jianfei Shi, Xiuyuan YinAbstract:The Yangtze River delta white goat is the only goat breed that produces high-quality brush hair, which is specifically used in top-grade writing brushes. Previous studies have indicated that the CMTM3 and DUSP1 genes are involved in the growth and cycle of high-quality brush hair, and these genes are thought to be involved in the formation of high-quality brush hair traits. In this study, we investigated the relationship between methylation of CMTM3 and DUSP1 and such traits. The results indicated that the relative expression levels of the CMTM3 and DUSP1 genes were higher in non-high-quality brush hair than in high-quality brush hair. Furthermore, the CpG sites of the DUSP1 gene were not methylated, and the methylation level of CMTM3 was negatively correlated with the gene expression level. We believe that the DUSP1 gene regulates the formation of high-quality brush hair by non-methylated, and that methylation of the CMTM3 gene results in a decrease in its expression, causing an increase in the activity of the androgen receptor and the level of androgen. This high androgen level promotes the growth of high-quality brush hair. These study results provide a theoretical basis for further elucidating the molecular mechanism of the formation of high-quality brush hair characteristics, and provide scientific reference for the molecular breeding of high-quality brush hair.
