The adaptor protein APPL1 mediates the stimulatory effect of adiponectin on p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here we show that, in C2C12 cells, overexpression or suppression of APPL1 enhanced or suppressed, respectively, adiponectin-stimulated p38 MAPK upstream kinase cascade, consisting of transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 3 (MKK3). In vitro affinity binding and coimmunoprecipitation experiments revealed that TAK1 and MKK3 bind to different regions of APPL1, suggesting that APPL1 functions as a scaffolding protein to facilitate adiponectin-stimulated p38 MAPK activation. Interestingly, suppressing APPL1 had no effect on TNFα-stimulated p38 MAPK phosphorylation in C2C12 myotubes, indicating that the stimulatory effect of APPL1 on p38 MAPK activation is selective. Taken together, our study demonstrated that the TAK1-MKK3 cascade mediates adiponectin signaling and uncovers a scaffolding role of APPL1 in regulating the TAK1-MKK3-p38 MAPK pathway, specifically in response to adiponectin stimulation.

В обзоре представлены современные данные о механизмах инициации, регуляции и выполнении процесса апоптоза нейтрофилов с участием «рецепторов смерти», митохондрий, белков семейства Bcl-2, PI3-K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase), протеинкиназных каскадов p38 MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase), ERK (extracellular signal regulated kinase) и JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase), протеинкиназ А, В и С, сAMP, белков теплового шока, NF-kB (nuclear factor-kB), кальпаинов, каспаз и их ингибиторов, активных форм кислорода и других факторов. Предложена гипотетическая модель вовлечения апоптотических процессов в регуляцию дифференцировки и реактивности нейтрофилов. This review presented recent data on initiation, regulation, and execution of neutrophil apoptosis with participation of «death receptors», mitochondria, Bcl-2 family proteins, PI3-K (phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase), p38 MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase), ERK (extracellular signal regulated kinase) and JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) cascades, protein kinases A, B and C, сAMP, heat shock proteins, NF-kB (nuclear factor-kB), calpains, caspases and theirs inhibitors, reactive oxygen species, and other factors. A speculative model of the apoptotic processes involvement in the regulation of neutrophil differentiation and reactivity was proposed.
