Differential regulation of TNFα and GM-CSF induced activation of P38 MAPK in neutrophils and eosinophils

Abstract: P38 MAPK is a central mediator in cytokine signalling in human leukocytes. P38 MAPK is activated by phosphorylation of a conserved Thr180-X-Tyr182 motif by dual phosphorylation via the upstream kinases MKK3 and MKK6. Alternatively, P38 MAPK can be activated via autophosphorylation when associated with TAB1. In this study P38 MAPK phosphorylation and activation (measured via phosphorylation of P38 MAPK downstream target MK2) were investigated upon engagement of the GM-CSF-and TNF␣-receptors expressed on both eo… Show more

“…The link between the TNF receptor (TNFR) and p38 MAPK activation has been previously reported [32,33]. Ligations of the TNFR phosphorylate MKK3/MKK6, upstream of p38 MAPK, have also been shown [34,35]. Therefore, we speculate that autocrine activation by TNF-α caused the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK.…”

“…Reduction of phosphorylation of p38 itself by Org 48762‐0 and SB203580 (Figure 4b) may have been caused by interference with p38 autophosphorylation in the alternative activation path as suggested by ten Hove et al . (2007) or by compound‐induced conformational change affecting the availability of its phosphorylation sites.…”

“…MKK3 and MKK6 are both known to phosphorylate p38. Therefore, ligation of TNFR1 in neutrophils results in the phosphorylation and activation of MKK3/MKK6 and subsequently p38, 45,46 and p38 activation after TNF-␣ stimulation induces neutrophil apoptosis. 47 Indirect activation of this signaling cascade by TNF-␣ via adhesion molecules was unlikely in our experiments, because no significant adhesion of neutrophils occurred under the culture conditions used (ie, the presence of 5% FCS).…”
