Figure Lengend Snippet: Localization of IL-1β in the brains of AD patients. The tissue blocks of human brains at a late stage of AD were collected from the New York Brain Bank at Columbia University. From 40 μm free-floating slices were prepared using a cryostat. (a) In select experiments, the brains of 3-month-old APP/PS1 transgenic mice were collected after anesthesia and perfusion. (b) The slices of human (a) or mouse (b) brains were double-stained with NeuN, Iba-1, GFAP (green), or IL-1β (red) antibody before observation using confocal microscopy. In separate experiments, primary cultured astrocytes were immunostained with IL-1β antibody before observation under confocal microscopy. (c) In distinct experiments, the astrocytes were co-cultured with neurons using transwell experiments for 24 h before staining the neurons with IL-1β antibody. The cells were then observed under confocal microscopy. (d) These images are representative of six independent experiments, all with similar results.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Phosphorylation of Stat5b Ser-193 displays rapid kinetics and is inducible by multiple cytokines. A, a phospho-specific polyclonal Stat5b Ser(P)-193 antibody was generated and tested by dot blot analysis using increasing amounts of Stat5b Ser-193 (CLAQLSPQERL), Ser(P)-193 (CLAQL(pS)PQERL), Ser-731 (KDQAPSPAVCP), and Ser(P)-731 (KDQAP(pS)PAVCP) peptides spotted onto PVDF membrane (where pS indicates phospho-serine). IB, immunoblotting. B, YT cells stimulated with IL-2 for 15 min were fluorescently labeled using α-phospho-Tyr (α-pY) Stat5 (Cy2, green), α-Ser(P)-193 (α-pS193) Stat5b (Cy3, red), and DAPI (blue) and visualized by confocal microscopy. The overlay (bottom panel) shows co-localization of phospho-Tyr Stat5 and Ser(P)-193 Stat5b. For peptide competition analysis, the polyclonal Ser(P)-193 Stat5b antibody was preblocked with increasing amounts of non-phospho-peptide (lanes a–c) or phospho-peptide (lanes d–f) for 1 h at 4 °C followed by staining of YT cells treated with IL-2 for 15 min. C, YT cells were stimulated without (−) (lane a) or with IL-2 (+) from 0 to 60 min (lanes b–e) and fixed with cold methanol. Cells were then stained with α-phospho-Tyr Stat5 (Cy2, green), α-Ser(P)-193 Stat5b (Cy3, red), and DAPI (blue) and visualized by confocal microscopy. The overlay (bottom panel) shows co-localization of phospho-Tyr Stat5 and Ser(P)-193 Stat5b. Insets show a higher magnification view of α-Ser(P)-193 Stat5b (Cy3, red)-stained YT cells treated with IL-2 for the indicated time points. D, quiescent PHA-activated human PBMCs were stimulated with medium (−) (lane a) or IL-2 (lane b), IL-7 (lane c), IL-9 (lane d), or IL-15 (lane e) for 15 min and fixed with cold methanol. Confocal images using α-phospho-Tyr Stat5 (Cy2, green), α-Ser(P)-193 Stat5b (Cy3, red), and DAPI (blue) and overlay images are shown.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Stat5b Ser-193 phosphorylation is required for its maximal DNA binding and transcriptional activity. A, HEK293 cells were transfected with IL-2Rβ, IL-2Rγ, Jak3, and Stat5b (WT, S193A, or S193E) and incubated for 48 h. The cells were then stimulated without (−) or with IL-2 (+) for 15 min. Stat5b WT (lanes a and b), Stat5b S193A (lanes c and d), and Stat5b S193E (lanes e and f) were blotted with α-phospho-Tyr (α-pY) Stat5 (upper panel) or total Stat5 (lower panel). WB, Western blot. B, nuclear extracts (5 μg) isolated from transfected HEK293 described in A were incubated with a 32P-radiolabeled oligonucleotide probe corresponding to the Stat5 binding site in the β-casein gene promoter. The extracts indicated were co-incubated with N-terminal directed α-Stat5 (lane h) or normal rabbit IgG (Cntrl) (lane i). The bracket indicates the location of free probe, and the arrows indicate the location of non-supershifted and supershifted Stat5b-DNA complexes. Representative data from two independent experiments are shown. C, HEK293 cells transfected as described in A were treated without (−) or with (+) IL-2 for 6 h. Control cells were transfected with Stat5b alone (lanes a and b). At 48 h after transfection, the cells were lysed, and luciferase activities were measured and normalized to β-galactosidase activity. Statistical significance was determined using analysis of variance (*, p < 0.05). Representative data from three independent experiments are shown. Error bars indicate S.D.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Stat5b Ser-193 is constitutively phosphorylated in HTLV-1-transformed tumor T-cell lines and primary leukemia and lymphoma patient tumor cells. A, immunofluorescent confocal microscopy was utilized to detect phospho-Tyr Stat5 (α-pY Stat5) and Ser(P)-193 Stat5b (α-pS193 Stat5b) in normal PHA-activated quiescent human PBMCs stimulated with IL-2 or without for 15 min (lanes a and b), non-PHA-activated PBMCs cells (lane c), MT-2 (lane d), HUT-102 (lane e), and HUT-78 (lane f). B, immunofluorescent confocal microscopy was utilized to detect phospho-Tyr Stat5 and Ser(P)-193 Stat5b in primary tumor cells isolated from patients diagnosed with ALL (lane d), AML (lane e), and B-cell lymphoma (lane f). Normal PHA-activated quiescent human PBMCs stimulated with IL-2 or without IL-2 for 15 min (lanes a and b) and non-PHA-activated PBMCs cells (lane c) served as controls. Immunofluorescent images were captured using PASCAL software on a Zeiss LSM 510 Meta confocal microscope at 63× magnification. Representative data from three independent experiments are shown.
