Cytokines play an essential role in the regulation of lymphocyte
survival and growth. We have analyzed the pathways activated by IL-2
that lead to protection from apoptosis and cell proliferation. IL-2 can
act as a long-term growth factor in 32D cells expressing the wild-type
human (hu)IL-2Rß. By contrast, cells expressing a truncated form of
the huIL-2Rß, which is able to induce Bcl-2 and c-myc
expression but not STAT5 activation, were not protected from apoptosis
by IL-2; consequently, they could not be grown long term in the
presence of IL-2. However, IL-2 promoted cell cycle progression in
cells bearing the truncated huIL-2Rß with percentages of
viable cells in the G0/G1, S, and
G2/M phases similar to cells expressing the wild-type
huIL-2Rß. Transplantation of a region from the erythropoietin
receptor, which contains a docking site for STAT5 (Y343) to the
truncated huIL-2Rß, restored the ability of IL-2 to signal both
activation of STAT5 and protection from apoptosis. By contrast,
transplantation of a region from the huIL-4R
containing STAT6
docking sites did not confer protection from apoptosis. These results
indicate that the IL-2-induced cell cycle progression can be clearly
distinguished from protection from apoptosis and that STAT5
participates in the regulation of apoptosis.
