Signal transducers and activators of transcription (Stat) proteins
play important roles in the regulation of hematopoiesis as downstream
molecules of cytokine signal transduction. It was previously
demonstrated that erythropoietin (EPO), a major regulator of
erythropoiesis, activates 3 different Stat members, Stat1, Stat3, and
Stat5, in a human EPO-dependent cell line, UT-7/EPO. To clarify the
mechanism by which EPO activates Stat1 and Stat3 via the EPO
receptor (EPOR), a series of chimeric receptors was constructed bearing
the extracellular domain of the granulocyte colony-stimulating factor
receptor linked to the transmembrane domain of EPOR and the full length
or several mutants of the cytoplasmic domain of EPOR, and these
chimeric receptor complementary DNAs were introduced into UT-7/EPO
cells. Tyr432 on human EPOR was important for activation of Stat1 and
Stat3 and c-myc gene induction. In addition, Jak2 and Fes
tyrosine kinases were involved in EPO-induced activation of Stat1 and
Stat3. These results indicate that Stat1 and Stat3 are activated by EPO
via distinct mechanisms from Stat5.
