Angiopoietin - Tie2 signaling

Angiopoietins bind exclusively to the TEK tyrosine kinase endothelial (Tie2) receptor tyrosine kinase. A ligand for the closely related Tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin-like and EGF-like domains 1 (Tie) receptor remains to be identified. These ligands have opposing actions in endothelial cells as Angiopoietin 1 and Angiopoietin 4 function as agonistic or activating ligands for Tie2, whereas Angiopoietin 2 and Angiopoietin 3 can behave as context dependent competitive antagonists [1]. But as well Angiopoietin 2 was shown to be a partial agonist of Tie2 and induces its internalization [2]. Tie2 is highly expressed in endothelial cells and is crucial for angiogenesis and vascular maintenance [1]. Tie is bound to Tie2 and does not signal via ligand-induced kinase activation. The physical association between Tie and Tie2 is consistent with Tie having a role in modulating Tie2 signaling [3].

The Tie2 receptor tyrosine kinase plays a pivotal role in vascular and hematopoietic development. Tie2 binds directly through SH2 domains and activates Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), Growth factor receptor-bound protein 7 (Grb7), Growth factor receptor-bound protein 14 (Grb14), Protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 11 (SHP-2), and Phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) [4]. SHP-2 and GRB2 are part of the pathway upstream of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation, a pathway that may be responsible for morphogenetic effects of Tie2 on endothelial cells [5].

Tie2 also binds Docking protein 2 56kDa (DOK2) that recruits NCK adaptor protein 1 (NCK1) and P21 protein-activated kinase 1 (PAK1). This results in increased cell motility. DOK recruits RAS p21 protein activator 1 (p120GAP). This has been shown to influence cellular migration [5], [6]. DOK2 is also constitutively bound to v-crk sarcoma virus CT10 oncogene homolog (Crk) [7].

Angiopoietin 1 via PI3K/ V-akt murine thymoma viral oncogene homolog 1 (AKT(PKB)) (AKT(PKB))/ Forkhead box O1 (FKHR) initiates expression of Baculoviral IAP repeat-containing 5 (Survivin), and thus protects endothelial cells from undergoing apoptosis [8], [9] and induces expression of Angiopoietin 2 [9].

Tie2 interacts with the inhibitor of Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) activity TNFAIP3 interacting protein 2 (ABIN-2) [10], [11]. ABIN-2 inhibits Receptor interacting serine-threonine kinase 1 (RIPK1) and Inhibitor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells, kinase gamma (IKK-gamma) [12]. Inhibition of NF-kB transcriptional activity can have anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic action [10], [11].

Tie2 induces Signal transducer and activators of transcription (STAT1, STAT3 and STAT5) activity. Mechanisms of STAT activation remain to be elucidated. Activated STAT induces the cell cycle inhibitor Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (p21) expression [13].

Endothelial PAS domain protein 1 (EPAS1), which forms a heterodimer with Aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), induces mRNA expression of Tie2 and a number of growth factors, leading to enhancement of mature angiogenesis [14], [15]. E74-like factor 2 (Elf2) also promotes expression of Tie2 in vascular endothelial cells in the setting of hypoxia [16].
