| 摘要 | In the present study, we investigated the tyrosine phosphorylation of Bombyx mori prothoracic glands using phosphotyrosine-specific antibodies and Western blot analysis. Results showed that prothoracicotropic hormone (PTTH) stimulates a rapid increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of at least 2 proteins in prothoracic glands, one of which was identified as extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK). The phosphorylation of another 120-kDa protein showed dose- and time-dependent stimulation by PTTH in vitro. In vitro activation of tyrosine phosphorylation was also verified by in vivo experiments: injection of PTTH into day-6 last-instar larvae greatly increased tyrosine phosphorylation. Treatment of prothoracic glands with the protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, sodium orthovanadate, also resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins and increased ecdysteroidogenesis. The PTTH-stimulated phosphorylation of the 120-kDa protein was markedly attenuated by genistein, a broad-spectrum tyrosine kinase inhibitor, but not by HNMPA-(AM)(3) , a specific inhibitor of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase. PP2, a more-selective inhibitor of the Src-family tyrosine kinases, partially inhibited PTTH-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation, but not ecdysteroidogenesis. This result implies the possibility that in addition to ERK, the phosphorylation of the 120-kDa protein, which is not Src-family tyrosine kinase, is likely also involved in PTTH-stimulated ecdysteroidogenesis in B. mori. |
