Abstract
Nonreceptor tyrosine phosphatases (NTPs) play an important role in regulating protein phosphorylation and have been proposed as attractive therapeutic targets for cancer and metabolic diseases. We have previously identified that 3-Hydroxy-1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one (HODHBt) enhanced STAT activation upon cytokine stimulation, leading to increased reactivation of latent HIV and effector functions of NK and CD8 T cells. Here, we demonstrate that HODHBt interacted with and inhibited the NTPs PTPN1 and PTPN2 through a mixed inhibition mechanism. We also confirm that PTPN1 and PTPN2 specifically controlled the phosphorylation of different STATs. The small molecule ABBV-CLS-484 (AC-484) is an active site inhibitor of PTPN1 and PTPN2 currently in clinical trials for advanced solid tumors. We compared AC-484 and HODHBt and found similar effects on STAT5 and immune activation, albeit with different mechanisms of action leading to varying effects on latency reversal. Our studies provide the first specific evidence to our knowledge that enhancing STAT phosphorylation via inhibition of PTPN1 and PTPN2 is an effective tool against HIV.

Usage information is collected from two different sources: this site (JCI) and Pubmed Central (PMC). JCI information (compiled daily) shows human readership based on methods we employ to screen out robotic usage. PMC information (aggregated monthly) is also similarly screened of robotic usage.
Various methods are used to distinguish robotic usage. For example, Google automatically scans articles to add to its search index and identifies itself as robotic; other services might not clearly identify themselves as robotic, or they are new or unknown as robotic. Because this activity can be misinterpreted as human readership, data may be re-processed periodically to reflect an improved understanding of robotic activity. Because of these factors, readers should consider usage information illustrative but subject to change.
