From the Activation of signal transducer and activator of
transcription 3 (STAT3) by interleukin-6 (IL-6) involves
phosphorylation of Tyr-705 and Ser-727, both of which are critical for
STAT3 transactivation. Here, we demonstrate that IL-6 activates Rac-1
and SEK-1/MKK-4 of the stress-activated protein kinase
pathway, as well as protein kinase C

(PKC
), as indicated
by PKC
Thr-505 phosphorylation. However, JNK-1, the end point kinase
of the stress-activated protein kinase pathway signal transduction
cascade, is not activated by IL-6. PKC
was found to be associated
with SEK-1/MKK-4 in unstimulated HepG2 cells but rapidly dissociates
from SEK-1/MKK-4 upon IL-6 stimulation to become associated with STAT3.
Inhibition of PKC
using rottlerin (6 µM) or by
overexpression of dominant negative PKC
demonstrates that PKC
kinase activity is required for STAT3 Ser-727 phosphorylation and
transactivation but not for STAT3 Tyr-705 phosphorylation or nuclear
import. PKC
signals downstream of Rac-1 and SEK-1/MKK-4, because
enhanced STAT3 transactivation induced by overexpression of
constitutive active RacV12 was strongly abrogated by rottlerin, whereas
IL-6-induced SEK-1/MKK-4 Thr-223 phosphorylation was not affected under
these conditions. Studying the kinetics of STAT3 and PKC
phosphorylation in cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions revealed that
STAT3 Tyr-705 phosphorylation and nuclear translocation precedes PKC
Thr-505 and STAT3 Ser-727 phosphorylation. Furthermore, the
IL-6-induced PKC
Thr-505 and STAT3 Ser-727 phosphorylation were only
observed in nuclear fractions of HepG2 cells. These results demonstrate
that IL-6-induced STAT3 transactivation involves the sequential
activation of Rac-1 and SEK-1/MKK-4, which leads to nuclear
translocation of PKC
by release from a SEK-1/MKK-4-containing
complex. Our results further indicate that PKC
-mediated STAT3
Ser-727 phosphorylation is mainly a nuclear event.
