Growth factors in Drosophila:

Characterization of two novel families of growth factors,

IDGFs and ADGFs

IDGFs = Imaginal Disc Growth FactorsIDGFs = Imaginal Disc Growth Factors

• secreted glycoproteins

• isolated from conditioned medium, where they are abundantly secreted by various Drosophila cell lines exhibiting macrophage properties (Cl8+, S2, Kc) (Kirkpatrick et al. 1995, Kawamura et al. 1999)

Detection of DS47 secreted by Dm cell lines1 - M3 media + serum2 - supernatant from S2 culture, serum-free3 - supernatant from S2 culture, serum+4 - supernatant from KcO culture, serum-free5 - supernatant from 1006-2 culture, serum+6 - supernatant from 1006-2 M culture, serum+7 - supernatant from Ox736-3 M culture, serum+8 - supernatant from 5697-5 culture, serum+9 - supernatant from 5697-7 culture, serum+

• IDGF proteins in cooperation with insulin are able to stimulate proliferation, polarization and motility of Cl8+ cells in culture (Kawamura et al.1999 – recombinant IDGF1 and 2)

• stimulate proliferation of fibroblasts and synovial cells in culture (Recklies et al.2002)

• in vivo is connected with differentiation of peripheral macrophages (Kirkpatick et al. 2007)

• is highly expressed in human body during inflammation (autoimmunity deseases like arthritis, final stage of cancer, viral infections)

IDGFs probably act as lectinsIDGFs probably act as lectins

• binding domain is slighly modified

• Do they bind chitin or different oligosaccharide motive?

IDGFs can be specialized to different functionIDGFs can be specialized to different function

Western blot (Bryant and Zurovec)

2 main groups: IDGFs with constitutive and induced expression

IDGFs 1-3 were identified IDGFs 1-3 were identified as a part of as a part of DrosophilaDrosophila immune response immune response

(DeGregorio et al. 2001, 2002, Irving et al. 2001, Levy et al. 2004,…)

• various MA and proteomic analysis identified IDGF 1-3 as a part of Drosophila immune response in both larvae and adults

• IDGF 1 and 3 are induced with septic injury

• IDGF3 expression is affected with Toll and Imd pathway, however IDGF1 expression is independent on both of them.

• IDGF2 expression is upregulated early after Gram-positive bacterial infection as well as after infection with yeasts.

• All IDGFs were found as a part of haemolymphal clots

The effect of recombinant ADGF-A on the growth and morphology of the Cl.8+ imaginal disc cells

Dying cells Living cells

It is possible to mimic the effect of ADGFAon cell growth by removal of adenosine

The mutant ADGF has no effect

Expression of different ADGFs ADGF-A is expressed in embryo, larva and adult (arrows)
