We had previously shown that kynurenine (KYN) produced from the overexpression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) causes defects in the differentiation of fiber cells, induces fiber cell apoptosis and cataract formation in the mouse lens, and leads to cell cycle arrest in cultured mouse lens epithelial cells (mLEC). In this study, we demonstrate that exogenous KYN reduces FGF2-mediated expression of alpha-, beta-, and gamma-crystallin and MIP26 in mLEC. We show that endogenously produced KYN in mLEC of IDO transgenic animals causes similar defects in FGF2-induced protein expression and that a competitive inhibitor of IDO prevents such defects. Our data also show that KYN inhibits FGF2-induced Akt and ERK1/2 phosphorylation in mLEC, which are required for crystallin and MIP26 expression in the lens. KYN does not inhibit FGF2 binding to cells but inhibit phosphorylation of FGFR1in mLEC. Together our data suggest that KYN might inhibit FGF2-mediated fiber cell differentiation by preventing expression of crystallins and MIP26. Our studies provide a novel mechanism by which KYN can exert deleterious effects in cells."xsd:string |
