We have recently shown that IL-3R occupancy activates a phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C, and the sustained diacylglycerol accumulation subsequently activates protein kinase C (PKC). In human IL-3-dependent myeloid cells (TF-1), the novel PKCepsilon isoform regulates bcl-2 expression and cell survival. The report of a PKC activatable cAMP response element (CRE) in the bcl-2 promoter and a role for PKC in bcl-2 expression in B cells led us to the hypothesis that PKC phosphorylation activates transcription factor CREB after IL-3R engagement. We found that IL-3 and GM-CSF induced phosphorylation of CREB on Ser(133) in TF-1 cells, and this phosphorylation was blocked by two structurally unrelated classes of PKC inhibitors. An inhibitor of cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases did not block this phosphorylation. IL-4, which is biologically active in these cells but does not use the beta common subunit, did not phosphorylate CREB on Ser(133). Inhibition of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase activity also inhibited IL3-induced CREB phosphorylation. The PKC inhibitors, but not a cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinase inhibitor, blocked IL-3 activation of CRE-dependent transcription from an egr-1 promoter/chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) reporter construction transiently transfected into TF-1 cells. Finally, TF-1 cells stably overexpressing PKCepsilon, but not the delta isoform of PKC, enhanced CRE-dependent CAT expression from the promoter/reporter construction. Therefore, it is likely that a PKCepsilon kinase cascade resulting in CREB phosphorylation represents a novel signal transduction cascade for regulating cellular gene expression through the beta common cytokine receptor.
