The Structure, Function and Regulation of Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Receptor Type J and Its Role in Diseases

Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type J (PTPRJ), also known as DEP-1, HPTPη, or CD148, belongs to the R3 subfamily of receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs). It was first identified as an antioncogene due to its protein level being significantly downregulated in most epithelial tumors a...

description Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type J (PTPRJ), also known as DEP-1, HPTPη, or CD148, belongs to the R3 subfamily of receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases (RPTPs). It was first identified as an antioncogene due to its protein level being significantly downregulated in most epithelial tumors and cancer cell lines (e.g., colon, lung, thyroid, breast, and pancreas). PTPRJ regulates mouse optic nerve projection by inhibiting the phosphorylation of the erythropoietin-producing hepatocellular carcinoma (Eph) receptor and abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1 (c-Abl). PTPRJ is crucial for metabolism. Recent studies have demonstrated that PTPRJ dephosphorylates JAK2 at positions Y813 and Y868 to inhibit leptin signaling. Akt is more phosphorylated at the Ser473 and Thr308 sites in <i>Ptprj</i><sup>−/−</sup> mice, suggesting that PTPRJ may be a novel negative regulator of insulin signaling. PTPRJ also plays an important role in balancing the pro- and anti-osteoclastogenic activity of the M-CSF receptor (M-CSFR), and in maintaining NFATc1 expression during the late stages of osteoclastogenesis to promote bone-resorbing osteoclast (OCL) maturation. Furthermore, multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) as substrates of PTPRJ are probably a potential therapeutic target for many types of diseases, such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic diseases, by inhibiting their phosphorylation activity. In light of the important roles that PTPRJ plays in many diseases, this review summarizes the structural features of the protein, its expression pattern, and the physiological and pathological functions of PTPRJ, to provide new ideas for treating PTPRJ as a potential therapeutic target for related metabolic diseases and cancer.
