We have investigated the regulation of kinases and phosphatases in
early gene activation in monocytes because these cells are implicated
in the pathogenesis of acute inflammatory states, such as sepsis and
acute lung injury. One early gene up-regulated by endotoxin is c-Jun, a
member of the activating protein (AP) family. C-Jun is phosphorylated
by c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and associates with c-Fos to form the
AP-1 transcriptional activation complex that can drive cytokine
expression. Inhibition of the serine/threonine phosphatase, PP2-A, with
okadaic acid resulted in a significant increase in JNK activity. This
finding was associated with increased phosphorylation of c-Jun, AP-1
transcriptional activity, and IL-1
expression. Activation of PP2A
inhibited JNK activity and JNK coprecipitated with the regulatory
subunit, PP2A-A
, supporting the conclusion that PP2A is a key
regulator of JNK in the context of an inflammatory
stimulus.
