Karitskaia IA, Aksenov ND, Vinogradova TA, Marakhova II: [Il-2-regulated expression of Na+,K (+)-ATPase in activated human lymphocytes]. Tsitologiia. 2005;47(1):28-37.
Expression of Na+,K (+)-ATPase alfal-subunit and of oubain-sensitive rubidium influxes has been investigated in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Isolated lymphocytes were stimulated by phytogemagglutinin (PHA) or interleukin-2 (IL-2). It has been shown that during the early stage of the PHA-activation the alfal-subunit abundance in the membrane fractions of the human blood lymphocytes does not change, whereas at the late stages of Go--> G1--> S transition (16-48 h) the alfa1 protein content increases. A translation inhibitor cycloheximide was found to prevent the late increase in alfa1-subunit expression. An immunosuppressant cyclosporin A decreases both IL-2-dependent T-lymphocyte progression and alfa1-subunit abundance by 48 h of PHA-induced lymphocyte activation. In the lymphocytes pretreated by PHA in submitogenic concentration (0.8-1.0 microg/ml) exogenous IL-2 (100 U/ml) induces a proliferative response as well as alfal-protein accumulation. A decrease in alfa1-protein accumulation in the presence of specific inhibitors of separate signal transduction pathways enables us to conclude that protein kinases ERK1/2 (MAPK pathway) and JAK3 (JAK-STAT pathway) mediate the IL-2-dependent regulation of Na+,K (+)-ATPase expression during lymphocyte transition from resting stage to proliferation. A correlation between changes in ouabain-sensitive rubidium influxes and the alfal-subunit amount has been demonstrated. It is concluded that IL-2-dependent-progression of normal human lymphocytes from quiescence to proliferation is accompanied by the increase in Na+,K (+)-ATPase alfa1-subunits expression, and the enhanced transport activity of a sodium pump during the prereplicative stage is provided by the increased number of functional pump units in plasma membrane. |
