Neutrophils stimulated with the chemoattractant FMLP or the phorbol
ester PMA are known to exhibit activation of a 90-kDa renaturable
protein kinase. Activation of this kinase was maximal at
13 min
after cell stimulation and the time course for activation was similar
to that of the extracellular-regulated kinases (ERKs) and p38-mitogen
activated protein kinase (p38MAPK). Compounds that block
activation of ERK-1/2 (PD 98059) or that inhibit the activity of
p38MAPK (SB 203580) blocked activation of this 90-kDa
kinase. SB 203580 is a highly selective inhibitor of
p38MAPK in vitro and is under intense study as a lead
compound for developing novel anti-inflammatory agents. However, we
demonstrate that SB 203580 at concentrations
10 µM can also inhibit
activation of ERK-1/2 in neutrophils. An Ab to the protein kinase
p90RSK2 (also referred to as MAPKAP-K1b, or
p90rsk) immunoprecipitated the active 90-kDa kinase from
lysates of stimulated neutrophils. No activity was observed for this
enzyme in immunoprecipitates obtained from unstimulated cells, and the
amounts of activity were markedly reduced if the cells were treated
with PD 98059 or SB 203580 before stimulation. Neutrophils stimulated
with FMLP exhibited phosphorylation of the cAMP response element
binding protein (CREB), and this reaction was inhibited by SB 203580
and PD 98059. These data establish that the renaturable 90-kDa protein
kinase is p90RSK2 and that CREB may be a substrate for this
enzyme in these cells. Novel effects of compound SB 203580 on
stimulated neutrophils are also described.
