c-fps/fes encodes a 92-kDa protein-tyrosine kinase (NCP92) that is expressed at the highest levels in macrophages. To determine if c-fps/fes can mediate the action of the colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) receptor (CSF-1R) and to identify potential targets of c-fps/fes in macrophages, we have overexpressed c-fps/fes in a CSF-1-dependent macrophage cell line. A 30- to 50-fold overexpression of c-fps/fes partially released these cells from their factor dependence by a nonautocrine mechanism, and this correlated with the tyrosine phosphorylation of two proteins of 130 and 75 kDa (P130 and P75). c-fps/fes did not cause tyrosine phosphorylation or activation of CSF-1 dependent targets, including CSF-1R, Shc, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and conversely, CSF-1 did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of P130 and P75. P75 appears to be a novel phosphotyrosyl protein, whereas P130 cross-reacts with a known substrate of v-src. P130 and P75 may be direct substrates of c-fps/fes: P130 was tightly associated with NCP92, and the src homology 2 domain of NCP92 specifically bound phosphorylated P130 and P75 but not the CSF-1-induced phosphotyrosyl proteins, consistent with the possibility that P130 and P75 are physiological targets of c-fps/fes. We conclude that although c-fps/fes can functionally substitute for CSF-1R to a certain extent, these tyrosine kinases act largely independently of each other and that P130 and P75 are novel targets whose mechanisms of action may be unrelated to the signalling pathways utilized by receptor tyrosine kinases.

Sperm capacitation is a prerequisite for successful fertilization. Increase in tyrosine phosphorylation is considered the hallmark of capacitation and attempts to understand its regulation are ongoing. In this regard, we attempted to study the role of SRC family kinases (SFKs) in the hamster sperm functions. Interestingly, we found the presence of the lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase, LCK, in mammalian spermatozoa and further characterized it in terms of its localization and function. LCK was found in spermatozoa of several species, and its transcript was identified in the hamster testis. Autophosphorylation of LCK at the Y394 residue increased as capacitation progressed, indicating an upregulation of LCK activity during capacitation. Inhibition of LCK (and perhaps the other SFKs) with the use of a specific inhibitor showed a significant decrease in protein tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, implying LCK/SFKs as key tyrosine kinase(s) regulating tyrosine phosphorylation during hamster sperm capacitation. Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase was identified as a substrate for LCK/SFK. LCK/SFKs inhibition significantly reduced the percentage fertilization (in vitro) but had no effect on sperm motility, hyperactivation and acrosome reaction. In summary, this is the first report on the presence of LCK, an SFK of hematopoietic lineage in spermatozoa besides being the first study on the role of SFKs in the spermatozoa of Syrian hamsters.

When stimulated through their antigen receptor, without costimulation, T cells enter a state of antigen-specific unresponsiveness, termed anergy. B7-mediated costimulation, signaling via CD28, is sufficient to prevent the induction of anergy. Here we show that ligation of T cell receptor (TCR) by alloantigen alone, which results in anergy, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of TCR zeta and its association with fyn. In contrast, TCR ligation in the presence of B7 costimulation, which results in productive immunity, activates tyrosine phosphorylation of TCR zeta and CD3 chains, which associate with activated lck and zeta-associated protein (ZAP) 70. Under these conditions, CD28 associates with activated lck and TCR zeta. These data suggest that the induction of anergy is an active signaling process characterized by the association of TCR zeta and fyn. In addition, CD28-mediated costimulation may prevent the induction of anergy by facilitating the effective association of TCR zeta and CD3 epsilon with the critical protein tyrosine kinase lck, and the subsequent recruitment of ZAP-70. Strategies to inhibit or activate TCR-associated, specific protein tyrosine kinase-mediated pathways may provide a basis for drug development with potential applications in the fields of transplantation, autoimmunity, and tumor immunity.

SummaryIt has been demonstrated that activation of platelets by platelet-activating factor (PAF) results in a dramatic increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of several cellular proteins. We report here that p72 syk is a potential candidate for the protein-tyrosine phosphorylation following PAF stimulation in porcine platelets. Immunoprecipitation kinase assay revealed that PAF stimulation resulted in a rapid activation of p72 syk which peaked at 10 s. The level of activation was found to be dose dependent and could be completely inhibited by the PAF receptor antagonist, CV3988. Phosphorylation at the tyrosine residues of p72 syk coincided with activation of yllsyk. Pretreatment of platelets with aspirin and apyrase did not affect PAF induced activation of p72 syk .Furthermore, genistein, a potent protein-tyrosine-kinase inhibitor, diminished PAF-induced p72 syk activation and Ca2+ mobilization as well as platelet aggregation. These results suggest that p72 syk may play a critical role in PAF-induced aggregation, possibly through regulation of Ca2+ mobilization.
