Txk, a Member of Nonreceptor Tyrosine Kinase of Tec Family, Acts as a Th1 Cell-Specific Transcription Factor and Regulates IFN-␥ Gene Transcription1 Yuko Takeba,2* Hiroko Nagafuchi,2† Mitsuhiro Takeno,* Jun-ichi Kashiwakura,* and Noboru Suzuki3* Precise mechanisms responsible for Th1 cell activation and differentiation are not fully elucidated. We have recently reported that Txk, a member of Tec family nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, is expressed on Th1/Th0 cells, and Txk regulates specifically IFN-␥ gene expression. In this study, we found that Txk bound to IFN-␥ promoter region. Txk transfection increased transcriptional activity of IFN-␥ promoter plus luciferase constructs severalfold, including IFN-␥ promoter ؊538, ؊208, and ؊53. IFN-␥ promoter ؊39 was refractory to the Txk transfection. The actual site to which Txk bound was the element consisting of ؊53 and ؊39 bp from Downloaded from the transcription start site of human IFN-␥ gene, a site distinct from several previously characterized binding sites. We found that the entire ؊53/؊39 region was necessary for the binding to and function of Txk, because mutant promoter oligoDNA that contained contiguous five base substitutions dispersed throughout the ؊53/؊39 inhibited the binding, and the mutant promoters did not respond to the Txk transfection. Similar sequences of this element are found within the 5؅ flanking regions of several Th1 cell-associated protein genes. Thus, Txk is expressed on Th1/Th0 cells with the IFN-␥ production and acts as a Th1 cell-specific transcription factor.

  • Transcriptional Regulation of Kinases Downstream of the T Cell Receptor
    Petrillo et al. BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology 2014, 15:35 http://www.biomedcentral.com/2050-6511/15/35 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptional regulation of kinases downstream of the T cell receptor: another immunomodulatory mechanism of glucocorticoids Maria Grazia Petrillo1†, Katia Fettucciari2†, Paolo Montuschi3†, Simona Ronchetti1, Luigi Cari1, Graziella Migliorati1, Emanuela Mazzon4, Oxana Bereshchenko1, Stefano Bruscoli1, Giuseppe Nocentini1,5* and Carlo Riccardi1 Abstract Background: Glucocorticoids affect peripheral immune responses, including modulation of T-cell activation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The quantity and quality of T-cell receptor (TCR)-triggered intracellular signals modulate T-cell function. Thus, glucocorticoids may affect T cells by interfering with the TCR signaling cascade. The purpose of the study was to search for glucocorticoid-modulated kinases downstream of the TCR. Methods: Gene modulation in lymphoid cells either treated with glucocorticoids or from glucocorticoid-treated mice was studied using a RNase protection assay, real-time PCR, and western blotting. The sensitivity of genetically modified thymocytes to glucocorticoid-induced apoptosis was studied by performing hypotonic propidium iodide staining and flow cytometry. The Student’s t-test was employed for statistical evaluation. Results: We found that transcription of Itk, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase of the Tec family, was up-regulated in a mouse T-cell hybridoma by the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone. In contrast, dexamethasone down-regulated the expression of Txk, a Tec kinase that functions redundantly with Itk, and Lck, the Src kinase immediately downstream of the TCR. We investigated the expression of Itk, Txk,andLck in thymocytes and mature lymphocytes following in vitro and in vivo dexamethasone treatment at different time points and doses.

Currently the five-year survival rate for AML patients is 27.4 percent. Meanwhile the standard of care for most AML patients has not changed for nearly 50 years. We now know that AML is a genetically heterogeneous disease and therefore it is unlikely that all AML patients will respond to therapy the same way. Upregulation of protein-tyrosine kinase signaling pathways is one common feature of some AML tumors, offering opportunities for targeted therapy.

Simple Summary: Protein phosphorylation is a key regulatory mechanism that controls a wide variety of cellular responses. This process is catalysed by the members of the protein kinase su- perfamily that are classified into two main families based on their ability to phosphorylate either tyrosine or serine and threonine residues in their substrates. Massive research efforts have been invested in dissecting the functions of tyrosine kinases, revealing their importance in the initiation and progression of human malignancies. Based on these investigations, numerous tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been included in clinical protocols and proved to be effective in targeted therapies for various haematological malignancies.

Crizotinib, an ALK/ROS1/MET inhibitor, is highly effective against ROS1-rearranged lung cancer and is used in clinic. However, crizotinib resistance is an emerging issue, and several resistance mechanisms, such as secondary kinase-domain mutations (e.g., ROS1-G2032R) have been identified in crizotinib-refractory patients. Here we characterize a new selective ROS1/NTRK inhibitor, DS-6051b, in preclinical models of ROS1- or NTRK-rearranged cancers. DS-6051b induces dramatic growth inhibition of both wild type and G2032R mutant ROS1–rearranged cancers or NTRK-rearranged cancers in vitro and in vivo. Here we report that DS-6051b is effective in treating ROS1- or NTRK-rearranged cancer in preclinical models, including crizotinib-resistant ROS1 positive cancer with secondary kinase domain mutations especially G2032R mutation which is highly resistant to crizotinib as well as lorlatinib and entrectinib, next generation ROS1 inhibitors. 1 Division of Experimental Chemotherapy, Cancer Chemotherapy Center, Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, Tokyo 135-8550, Japan.

  • Role of Non Receptor Tyrosine Kinases in Hematological Malignances and Its Targeting by Natural Products Kodappully S
    Siveen et al. Molecular Cancer (2018) 17:31 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12943-018-0788-y REVIEW Open Access Role of Non Receptor Tyrosine Kinases in Hematological Malignances and its Targeting by Natural Products Kodappully S. Siveen1†, Kirti S. Prabhu1†, Iman W. Achkar1, Shilpa Kuttikrishnan1, Sunitha Shyam2, Abdul Q. Khan1, Maysaloun Merhi3, Said Dermime3 and Shahab Uddin1* Abstract Tyrosine kinases belong to a family of enzymes that mediate the movement of the phosphate group to tyrosine residues of target protein, thus transmitting signals from the cell surface to cytoplasmic proteins and the nucleus to regulate physiological processes. Non-receptor tyrosine kinases (NRTK) are a sub-group of tyrosine kinases, which can relay intracellular signals originating from extracellular receptor. NRTKs can regulate a huge array of cellular functions such as cell survival, division/propagation and adhesion, gene expression, immune response, etc. NRTKs exhibit considerable variability in their structural make up, having a shared kinase domain and commonly possessing many other domains such as SH2, SH3 which are protein-protein interacting domains. Recent studies show that NRTKs are mutated in several hematological malignancies, including lymphomas, leukemias and myelomas, leading to aberrant activation. It can be due to point mutations which are intragenic changes or by fusion of genes leading to chromosome translocation. Mutations that lead to constitutive kinase activity result in the formation of oncogenes, such as Abl, Fes, Src, etc. Therefore, specific kinase inhibitors have been sought after to target mutated kinases. A number of compounds have since been discovered, which have shown to inhibit the activity of NRTKs, which are remarkably well tolerated.
