Abstract: One important mechanism cytotoxic T lymphocytes use to kill target cells is exocytosis of lytic granules that contain cytotoxic agents such as perforin and granzyme. Ca2+ influx and activation of protein kinase C have been known for many years to be key signals for granule exocytosis. Recent work has suggested that activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK), members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) family, may be a third required signal. We surmised that the involvement of ERK in lytic granule exocytosis could be mediated through cross-talk with Ca2+ influx, rather than constituting an independent signal. We tested this idea using TALL-104 human leukemic CTLs as a model system and discovered the following. 1) ERK inhibition caused a modest decrease in the amplitude of increases in intracellular Ca2+ concentration, but this effect cannot account for the profound inhibition of granule exocytosis. 2) Ca2+ influx can activate ERK in TALL-104 cells, but this effect does not contribute to ERK activation stimulated by solid phase anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies. We conclude that cross-talk between ERK signaiing and Ca2+ does not mediate the role of ERK in CTL lytic granule exocytosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
