The '''erythropoietin receptor''' is a 66 [[atomic mass unit|kDa]] [[peptide]] and is a member of the [[cytokine receptor]] family. The receptor is [[tyrosine]] [[phosphorylation|phosphorylated]] upon binding by [[erythropoietin]] and associates with and activates the [[tyrosine kinase]], [[JAK2]], which activates different intracellular pathways including: Ras/MAP kinase, [[phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase]] and [[STAT protein|STAT transcription factor]]s. The stimulated erythropoietin receptor appears to have a role in erythroid cell survival. Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce [[erythroleukemia]] and [[familial erythrocytosis]].<ref>{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: EPOR erythropoietin receptor| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=2057| accessdate = }}</ref>

The cytoplasmic domains of the EpoR contain a number of phosphotyrosines that are [[phosphorylation|phosphorylated]] by [[Janus kinase 2|Jak2]] and serve as docking sites for a variety of intracellular pathway activators and Stats (such as [[STAT5|Stat5]]). In addition to activating Ras/AKT and ERK/MAP kinase, [[phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase]]/AKT pathway and [[STAT protein|STAT transcription factor]]s, phosphotyrosines also serve as docking sites for phosphatases that negatively affect EpoR signaling in order to prevent overactivation that may lead to such disorders as erythrocytosis. In general, the defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce [[erythroleukemia]] and [[familial erythrocytosis]].

It is thought that erythroid differentiation is primarily dependent on the presence and induction of erythroid transcriptional factors such as GATA-1, FOG-1 and EKLF, as well as the suppression of myeloid/lymphoid transcriptional factors such as PU.1.<ref name="pmid12032775">{{cite journal | vauthors = Cantor AB, Orkin SH | title = Transcriptional regulation of erythropoiesis: an affair involving multiple partners | journal = Oncogene | volume = 21 | issue = 21 | pages = 3368–76 | date = May 2002 | pmid = 12032775 | doi = 10.1038/sj.onc.1205326 }}</ref> Direct and significant effects of EpoR signaling specifically upon the induction of erythroid-specific genes such as beta-globin, have been mainly elusive.

=== Erythroid cell cycle/proliferation ===
 
Induction of proliferation by the EpoR is likely cell type-dependent. It is known that EpoR can activate mitogenic signaling pathways and can lead to cell proliferation in erythroleukemic cell lines ''in vitro'', various non-erythroid cells, and cancer cells. So far, there is no sufficient evidence that ''in vivo'', EpoR signaling can induce erythroid progenitors to undergo cell division, or whether Epo levels can modulate the cell cycle.<ref name="pmid2326648"/> EpoR signaling may still have a proliferation effect upon BFU-e progenitors, but these progenitors cannot be directly identified, isolated and studied. CFU-e progenitors enter the cell cycle at the time of GATA-1 induction and PU.1 suppression in a developmental manner rather than due to EpoR signaling.<ref name="pmid20877475">{{cite journal | vauthors = Pop R, Shearstone JR, Shen Q, Liu Y, Hallstrom K, Koulnis M, Gribnau J, Socolovsky M | title = A key commitment step in erythropoiesis is synchronized with the cell cycle clock through mutual inhibition between PU.1 and S-phase progression | journal = PLoS Biology | volume = 8 | issue = 9 | year = 2010 | pmid = 20877475 | pmc = 2943437 | doi = 10.1371/journal.pbio.1000484 }}</ref> Subsequent differentiation stages (proerythroblast to orthochromatic erythroblast) involve a decrease in cell size and eventual expulsion of the nucleus, and are likely dependent upon EpoR signaling only for their survival. In addition, some evidence on macrocytosis in hypoxic stress (when Epo can increase 1000-fold) suggests that mitosis is actually ''skipped'' in later erythroid stages, when EpoR expression is low/absent, in order to provide emergency reserve of red blood cells as soon as possible.<ref name="pmid14236733">{{cite journal | vauthors = Seno S, Miyahara M, Asakura H, Ochi O, Matsuoka K, Toyama T | title = MACROCYTOSIS RESULTING FROM EARLY DENUCLEATION OF ERYTHROID PRECURSORS | journal = Blood | volume = 24 | issue =  | pages = 582–93 | date = Nov 1964 | pmid = 14236733 | doi =  }}</ref><ref name="pmid14014098">{{cite journal | vauthors = Borsook H, Lingrel JB, Scaro JL, Millette RL | title = Synthesis of haemoglobin in relation to the maturation of erythroid cells | journal = Nature | volume = 196 | issue = 4852 | pages = 347–50 | date = Oct 1962 | pmid = 14014098 | doi = 10.1038/196347a0 }}</ref> Such data, though sometimes circumstantial, argue that there is limited capacity to proliferate specifically in response to Epo (and not other factors). Together, these data suggest that EpoR in erythroid differentiation may function primarily as a survival factor, while its effect on the cell cycle (for example, rate of division and corresponding changes in the levels of cyclins and Cdk inhibitors) ''in vivo'' awaits further work. In other cell systems, however, EpoR may provide a specific proliferative signal.
 
=== Commitment of multipotent progenitors to the erythroid lineage ===
 
EpoR's role in lineage commitment is currently unclear. EpoR expression can extend as far back as the hematopoietic stem cell compartment.<ref name="pmid16873070">{{cite journal | vauthors = Forsberg EC, Serwold T, Kogan S, Weissman IL, Passegué E | title = New evidence supporting megakaryocyte-erythrocyte potential of flk2/flt3+ multipotent hematopoietic progenitors | journal = Cell | volume = 126 | issue = 2 | pages = 415–26 | date = Jul 2006 | pmid = 16873070 | doi = 10.1016/j.cell.2006.06.037 }}</ref> It is unknown whether EpoR signaling plays a ''permissive'' (i.e. induces only survival) or an ''instructive'' (i.e. upregulates erythroid markers to ''lock'' progenitors to a predetermined differentiation path) role in early, multipotent progenitors in order to produce sufficient erythroblast numbers. Current publications in the field suggest that it is primarily permissive. The generation of BFU-e and CFU-e progenitors was shown to be normal in rodent embryos knocked out for either Epo or EpoR.<ref name="pmid7553874">{{cite journal | vauthors = Wu H, Liu X, Jaenisch R, Lodish HF | title = Generation of committed erythroid BFU-E and CFU-E progenitors does not require erythropoietin or the erythropoietin receptor | journal = Cell | volume = 83 | issue = 1 | pages = 59–67 | date = Oct 1995 | pmid = 7553874 | doi = 10.1016/0092-8674(95)90234-1 }}</ref> An argument against such lack of requirement is that in response to Epo or hypoxic stress, the number of early erythroid stages, the BFU-e and CFU-e, increases dramatically. However, it is unclear if it is an instructive signal or, again, a permissive signal. One additional point is that signaling pathways activated by the EpoR are common to many other receptors; replacing EpoR with prolactin receptor supports erythroid survival and differentiation ''in vitro''.<ref name="pmid9716574">{{cite journal | vauthors = Socolovsky M, Fallon AE, Lodish HF | title = The prolactin receptor rescues EpoR-/- erythroid progenitors and replaces EpoR in a synergistic interaction with c-kit | journal = Blood | volume = 92 | issue = 5 | pages = 1491–6 | date = Sep 1998 | pmid = 9716574 | doi =  }}</ref><ref name="pmid9162017">{{cite journal | vauthors = Socolovsky M, Dusanter-Fourt I, Lodish HF | title = The prolactin receptor and severely truncated erythropoietin receptors support differentiation of erythroid progenitors | journal = The Journal of Biological Chemistry | volume = 272 | issue = 22 | pages = 14009–12 | date = May 1997 | pmid = 9162017 | doi = 10.1074/jbc.272.22.14009 }}</ref> Together, these data suggest that commitment to erythroid lineage likely does not happen due to EpoR's as-yet-unknown instructive function, but possibly due to its role in survival at the multipotent progenitor stages.
 
== Animal studies on Epo Receptor mutations==
 
Mice with truncated EpoR<ref name="pmid11406592">{{cite journal | vauthors = Zang H, Sato K, Nakajima H, McKay C, Ney PA, Ihle JN | title = The distal region and receptor tyrosines of the Epo receptor are non-essential for in vivo erythropoiesis | journal = The EMBO Journal | volume = 20 | issue = 12 | pages = 3156–66 | date = Jun 2001 | pmid = 11406592 | pmc = 150206 | doi = 10.1093/emboj/20.12.3156 }}</ref> are viable, which suggests Jak2 activity is sufficient to support basal erythropoiesis by activating the necessary pathways without phosphotyrosine docking sites being needed. EpoR-H form of EpoR truncation contains the first, and, what can be argued, the most important tyrosine 343 that serves as a docking site for the Stat5 molecule, but lacks the rest of the cytoplasmic tail. These mice exhibit elevated erythropoiesis consistent with the idea that phosphatase recruitment (and therefore the shutting down of signaling) is aberrant in these mice.
 
The EpoR-HM receptor also lacks the majority of the cytoplasmic domain, and contains the tyrosine 343 that was mutated to phenylalanine, making it unsuitable for efficient Stat5 docking and activation. These mice are anemic and show poor response to hypoxic stress, such as phenylhydrazine treatment or erythropoietin injection.<ref name="pmid11406592"/>
 
EpoR knockout mice have defects in heart, brain and the vasculature. These defects may be due to blocks in RBC formation and thus insufficient oxygen delivery to developing tissues because mice engineered to express Epo receptors only in erythroid cells develop normally.
 
== Clinical significance ==
 
Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce [[acute erythroid leukemia|erythroleukemia]] and familial [[polycythemia|erythrocytosis]].<ref name = "entrez"/> Overproduction of red blood cells increases a chance of adverse cardiovascular event, such as thrombosis and stroke.
 
Rarely, seemingly beneficial mutations in the EpoR may arise, where increased red blood cell number allows for improved oxygen delivery in athletic endurance events with no apparent adverse effects upon the athlete's health (as for example in the Finnish athlete [[Eero Mäntyranta]]).<ref name="pmid8506290">{{cite journal | vauthors = de la Chapelle A, Träskelin AL, Juvonen E | title = Truncated erythropoietin receptor causes dominantly inherited benign human erythrocytosis | journal = Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America | volume = 90 | issue = 10 | pages = 4495–9 | date = May 1993 | pmid = 8506290 | pmc = 46538 | doi = 10.1073/pnas.90.10.4495 }}</ref>

The erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EPOR gene.[1] EpoR is a 52kDa peptide with a single carbohydrate chain resulting in a n approximately 56-57 kDa protein found on the surface of EPO responding cells. It is a member of the cytokine receptor family. EpoR pre-exists as dimers [2] which upon binding of a 30 kDa ligand erythropoietin (Epo), changes its homodimerized state. These conformational changes result in the autophosphorylation of Jak2 kinases that are pre-associated with the receptor (i.e., EpoR does not possess intrinsic kinase activity and depends on Jak2 activity).[3][4] At present, the most well-established function of EpoR is to promote proliferation and rescue of erythroid (red blood cell) progenitors from apoptosis.[1]

Function and mechanism of action

File:TruncatedEpoReceptors.png
Murine Epo Receptor truncations and known functions. Erythroid differentiation depends on transcriptional regulator GATA1. EpoR is thought to contribute to differentiation via multiple signaling pathways including the STAT5 pathway. In erythropoiesis, EpoR is best known for inducing survival of progenitors.

The cytoplasmic domains of the EpoR contain a number of phosphotyrosines that are phosphorylated by Jak2 and serve as docking sites for a variety of intracellular pathway activators and Stats (such as Stat5). In addition to activating Ras/AKT and ERK/MAP kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT pathway and STAT transcription factors, phosphotyrosines also serve as docking sites for phosphatases that negatively affect EpoR signaling in order to prevent overactivation that may lead to such disorders as erythrocytosis. In general, the defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce erythroleukemia and familial erythrocytosis. Mutations in Jak2 kinases associated with EpoR can also lead to polycythemia vera.[5]

Erythroid survival

Primary role of EpoR is to promote proliferation of erythroid progenitor cells and rescue erythroid progenitors from cell death.[6] EpoR induced Jak2-Stat5 signaling, together with transcriptional factor GATA-1, induces the transcription of pro-survival protein Bcl-xL.[7] Additionally, EpoR has been implicated in suppressing expression of death receptors Fas, Trail and TNFa that negatively affect erythropoiesis.[8][9][10]

Based on current evidence, it is still unknown whether Epo/EpoR directly cause "proliferation and differentiation" of erythroid progenitors in vivo, although such direct effects have been described based on in vitro work.

Erythroid differentiation

It is thought that erythroid differentiation is primarily dependent on the presence and induction of erythroid transcriptional factors such as GATA-1, FOG-1 and EKLF, as well as the suppression of myeloid/lymphoid transcriptional factors such as PU.1.[11] Direct and significant effects of EpoR signaling specifically upon the induction of erythroid-specific genes such as beta-globin, have been mainly elusive. It is known that GATA-1 can induce EpoR expression.[12] In turn, EpoR's PI3-K/AKT signaling pathway augments GATA-1 activity.[13]

Erythroid cell cycle/proliferation

Induction of proliferation by the EpoR is likely cell type-dependent. It is known that EpoR can activate mitogenic signaling pathways and can lead to cell proliferation in erythroleukemic cell lines in vitro, various non-erythroid cells, and cancer cells. So far, there is no sufficient evidence that in vivo, EpoR signaling can induce erythroid progenitors to undergo cell division, or whether Epo levels can modulate the cell cycle.[6] EpoR signaling may still have a proliferation effect upon BFU-e progenitors, but these progenitors cannot be directly identified, isolated and studied. CFU-e progenitors enter the cell cycle at the time of GATA-1 induction and PU.1 suppression in a developmental manner rather than due to EpoR signaling.[14] Subsequent differentiation stages (proerythroblast to orthochromatic erythroblast) involve a decrease in cell size and eventual expulsion of the nucleus, and are likely dependent upon EpoR signaling only for their survival. In addition, some evidence on macrocytosis in hypoxic stress (when Epo can increase 1000-fold) suggests that mitosis is actually skipped in later erythroid stages, when EpoR expression is low/absent, in order to provide emergency reserve of red blood cells as soon as possible.[15][16] Such data, though sometimes circumstantial, argue that there is limited capacity to proliferate specifically in response to Epo (and not other factors). Together, these data suggest that EpoR in erythroid differentiation may function primarily as a survival factor, while its effect on the cell cycle (for example, rate of division and corresponding changes in the levels of cyclins and Cdk inhibitors) in vivo awaits further work. In other cell systems, however, EpoR may provide a specific proliferative signal.

Commitment of multipotent progenitors to the erythroid lineage

EpoR's role in lineage commitment is currently unclear. EpoR expression can extend as far back as the hematopoietic stem cell compartment.[17] It is unknown whether EpoR signaling plays a permissive (i.e. induces only survival) or an instructive (i.e. upregulates erythroid markers to lock progenitors to a predetermined differentiation path) role in early, multipotent progenitors in order to produce sufficient erythroblast numbers. Current publications in the field suggest that it is primarily permissive. The generation of BFU-e and CFU-e progenitors was shown to be normal in rodent embryos knocked out for either Epo or EpoR.[18] An argument against such lack of requirement is that in response to Epo or hypoxic stress, the number of early erythroid stages, the BFU-e and CFU-e, increases dramatically. However, it is unclear if it is an instructive signal or, again, a permissive signal. One additional point is that signaling pathways activated by the EpoR are common to many other receptors; replacing EpoR with prolactin receptor supports erythroid survival and differentiation in vitro.[19][20] Together, these data suggest that commitment to erythroid lineage likely does not happen due to EpoR's as-yet-unknown instructive function, but possibly due to its role in survival at the multipotent progenitor stages.

Animal studies on Epo Receptor mutations

Mice with truncated EpoR[21] are viable, which suggests Jak2 activity is sufficient to support basal erythropoiesis by activating the necessary pathways without phosphotyrosine docking sites being needed. EpoR-H form of EpoR truncation contains the first, and, what can be argued, the most important tyrosine 343 that serves as a docking site for the Stat5 molecule, but lacks the rest of the cytoplasmic tail. These mice exhibit elevated erythropoiesis consistent with the idea that phosphatase recruitment (and therefore the shutting down of signaling) is aberrant in these mice.

The EpoR-HM receptor also lacks the majority of the cytoplasmic domain, and contains the tyrosine 343 that was mutated to phenylalanine, making it unsuitable for efficient Stat5 docking and activation. These mice are anemic and show poor response to hypoxic stress, such as phenylhydrazine treatment or erythropoietin injection.[21]

EpoR knockout mice have defects in heart, brain and the vasculature. These defects may be due to blocks in RBC formation and thus insufficient oxygen delivery to developing tissues because mice engineered to express Epo receptors only in erythroid cells develop normally.

Clinical significance

Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce erythroleukemia and familial erythrocytosis.[1] Overproduction of red blood cells increases a chance of adverse cardiovascular event, such as thrombosis and stroke.

Rarely, seemingly beneficial mutations in the EpoR may arise, where increased red blood cell number allows for improved oxygen delivery in athletic endurance events with no apparent adverse effects upon the athlete's health (as for example in the Finnish athlete Eero Mäntyranta).[22]

Erythropoietin was reported to maintain endothelial cells and to promote tumor angiogenesis, hence the dysregulation of EpoR may affect the growth of certain tumors.[23][24] However this hypothesis is not universally accepted.

Interactions

Erythropoietin receptor has been shown to interact with:
