Taken together, the tyrosine phosphorylation and presumably kinase activity of p56lck were swiftly enhanced by oxidative stress, indicating that T cells have a redox-sensitive signaling mechanism, which is partly mediated by the lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase p56lck. Paper-7872736.
Prior data associating the expression of lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase ( LCK) with type 1 diabetes, its critical function in lymphocytes, and the linkage of the region to diabetes in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model make LCK a premier candidate for a susceptibility gene. Paper-10538045.
Our previous studies have established that lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase ( LCK) is reduced in T lymphocytes from patients with SLE and that this reduction is associated with disease activity and parallels an increase in LCK ubiquitination independent of T cell activation. Paper-10404761.
HSCs can efficiently initiate apoptosis after activation of the SAC in LSK cells as indicated by increased hypodiploidy and increased levels of activated caspase 3, suggesting that HSCs behave more like somatic cells instead of ESCs with respect to this important cell cycle checkpoint. Paper-13016906.
IGF-1 administration increased bone marrow LSK (lineage(-), Sca-1(+), c-kit(+)) precursor proliferation and peripheral LSK populations, increased thymocyte populations in a sequential wave of expansion, and proportionately expanded TEC subpopulations and enhanced their chemokine expression. Paper-12951328.
We earlier reported that Fischer 344/jcl strain (F344) rats carrying a unique pX gene of human T lymphocyte virus type I ( HTLV-I) under control of a rat lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase (p56lck) type I promoter (lck-pX rats) spontaneously developed epithelial thymomas from the thymic medulla. Paper-10365536.
We have previously reported that lck mRNA (a lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase gene) is absent in human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I)-infected interleukin-2(IL-2)-independent T-cell lines, while HTLV-I-negative T-cell lines and HTLV-I-positive IL-2-dependent ones express a large amount of lck mRNA. Paper-6819445.
Furthermore, when cultured in the absence of IL-2, transfected T cells whose relative levels of p56-LCK activity were elevated by approximately 20-50-fold died with the same kinetics as control cells and underwent apoptosis, as defined by uptake of trypan blue dye and DNA fragmentation assays, respectively. Paper-84661.
Apoptosis of antigen-specific T lymphocytes upon the engagement of CD8 by soluble HLA class I molecules is Fas ligand/Fas mediated: evidence for the involvement of p56lck, calcium calmodulin kinase II, and Calcium-independent protein kinase C signaling pathways and for NF-kappaB and NF-AT nuclear translocation. Paper-11492228.
The expression of lck gene ( lymphocyte specific protein tyrosine kinase) in the human system was examined by Northern blot analysis in human T cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I)-positive T cell lines, HTLV-I-T cell lines, normal T cell population, and a T cell line infected with human immunodeficiency virus. Paper-6197264.
CD28 interacts with three intracellular proteins-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase ( PI 3-kinase), T cell-specific protein-tyrosine kinase ITK (formerly TSK or EMT), and the complex between growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 and son of sevenless guanine nucleotide exchange protein (GRB-2-SOS). Paper-357268.
In conclusion, CD8alpha down-regulates the production of major Th2-type cytokines, in part mediated by LCK and/or linker for activation of T cells, and may induce differentiation of tumor-specific Th1 cells, which makes this coreceptor an interesting candidate to improve the clinical potential of TCR gene transfer to treat cancer. Paper-12057084.
In addition, sorafenib induced T-cell apoptosis at concentrations higher than 10 muM. sorafenib also caused G(0)/G(1) phase arrest, inhibition of CD25 and CD69 expression, interleukin-2 production and LCK phosphorylation in the T cells; all of these effects exhibited dose and time dependence. Paper-12826077.
The following loci were newly assigned by Southern hybridization to sheep Chr 2: lipoprotein lipase ( LPL), glycoprotein-4-beta galactosyltransferase 2 ( GGTB2), neurofilament light polypeptide (68 kDa; NEFL), surfactant-associated protein 2 ( SFTP2), lymphocyte-specific protein tyrosine kinase ( LCK), and nebulin ( NEB). Paper-739607.
Our results indicate that 1) activation of EMT is partially dependent upon tyrosine 173 of the CD28 tail, although it does not require PI3-kinase activation; 2) activation of LCK is independent of CD28 cytoplasmic tail tyrosine residues; and 3) elements sufficient for the activation of both kinases are contained within the first half of the tail. Paper-851163.
