12/15-lipoxygenase-derived lipid peroxides control receptor tyrosine kinase signaling through oxidation of protein tyrosine phosphatases.


ABSTRACT: Protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) are regulated through reversible oxidation of the active-site cysteine. Previous studies have implied soluble reactive oxygen species (ROS), like H(2)O(2), as the mediators of PTP oxidation. The potential role(s) of peroxidized lipids in PTP oxidation have not been described. This study demonstrates that increases in cellular lipid peroxides, induced by disruption of glutathione peroxidase 4, induce cellular PTP oxidation and reduce the activity of PDGF receptor targeting PTPs. These effects were accompanied by site-selective increased PDGF beta-receptor phosphorylation, sensitive to 12/15-lipoxygenase (12/15-LOX) inhibitors, and increased PDGF-induced cytoskeletal rearrangements. Importantly, the 12/15-LOX-derived 15-OOH-eicosatetraenoic acid lipid per
