HEMATOPOIESIS
IL-3-induced enhancement of retinoic acid receptor activity is
mediated through Stat5, which physically associates with retinoic
acid receptors in an IL-3-dependent manner

The regulation of hematopoiesis involves the interaction of
specific hematopoietic cytokines with lineage-specific transcription factors, but little is known about how these cytokines might regulate the expression/activity of these different transcription factors. Here
we identify the critical signal transduction pathways that mediate the
interleukin 3 (IL-3)-induced enhancement of retinoic acid receptor
(RAR) transcriptional activity that accompanies the IL-3-mediated
commitment of the multipotent, stem cell factor (SCF)-dependent EML
cell line to granulocyte/monocyte progenitors. We observe that the
addition of IL-3 to EML cells induces activation of the
phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and
Jak/Stat pathways and that Jak2 activation is the critical
"proximal" mediator of the IL-3-induced enhancement of RAR
activity. Constitutively active Stat5 constructs enhance both the
transcriptional activity of RARs in EML cells and the commitment of
these cells to granulocyte/monocyte progenitors, whereas
dominant-negative Stat5 constructs inhibit this IL-3-induced
enhancement of RAR transcriptional activity. We observe that the
retinoic acid response element (RARE) used in our RA responsive
reporter harbors overlapping Stat/RAR-binding sites. Moreover,
coimmunoprecipitation studies indicate an interaction between Stat5 and
RARs that is IL-3 dependent. Thus, Stat5 is an important mediator of
the IL-3-induced enhancement of RAR transcriptional activity that
accompanies the commitment of immature EML cells to the
granulocyte/monocyte lineage. Cytokine-mediated physical and functional
interactions between Stat5 and RARs may play critical roles in
regulating different stages of hematopoiesis.
