Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor Type 2 (PTPN2) is an attractive target for cancer immunotherapy. PTPN2 and another subtype of PTP1B are highly similar in structure, but their biological functions are distinct. Therefore, subtype-selective targeting of PTPN2 remains a challenge for researchers. Herein, the development of small molecular PTPN2 degraders based on a thiadiazolidinone dioxide-naphthalene scaffold and a VHL E3 ligase ligand is described, and the PTPN2/PTP1B subtype-selective degradation is achieved for the first time. The linker structure modifications led to the discovery of the subtype-selective PTPN2 degrader PVD-06 (PTPN2/PTP1B selective index > 60-fold), which also exhibits excellent proteome-wide degradation selectivity. PVD-06 induces PTPN2 degradation in a ubiquitination- and proteasome-dependent manner. It efficiently promotes T cell activation and amplifies IFN-γ-mediated B16F10 cell growth inhibition. This study provides a convenient chemical knockdown tool for PTPN2-related research and a paradigm for subtype-selective PTP degradation through nonspecific substrate-mimicking ligands, demonstrating the therapeutic potential of PTPN2 subtype-selective degradation.

Tang XE, Cheng YQ, Tang CK. Protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 2 as the therapeutic target of atherosclerotic diseases: past, present and future. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1219690. [PMID: 37670950 PMCID: PMC10475599 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1219690] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Accepted: 08/03/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Tyrosine-protein phosphatase non-receptor type 2(PTPN2), an important member of the protein tyrosine phosphatase family, can regulate various signaling pathways and biological processes by dephosphorylating receptor protein tyrosine kinases. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that PTPN2 is involved in the occurrence and development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Recently, it has been reported that PTPN2 exerts an anti-atherosclerotic effect by regulating vascular endothelial injury, monocyte proliferation and migration, macrophage polarization, T cell polarization, autophagy, pyroptosis, and insulin resistance. In this review, we summarize the latest findings on the role of PTPN2 in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis to provide a rationale for better future research and therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine phosphatases, together with protein tyrosine kinases, control many molecular signaling steps that control life at cellular and organismal levels. Impairing alterations in the genes encoding the involved proteins is expected to profoundly affect the quality of life-if compatible with life at all. Here, we review the current knowledge on the effects of germline variants that have been reported for genes encoding a subset of the protein tyrosine phosphatase superfamily; that of the thirty seven classical members. The conclusion must be that the newest genome research tools produced an avalanche of data that suggest 'guilt by association' for individual genes to specific disorders. Future research should face the challenge to investigate these accusations thoroughly and convincingly, to reach a mature genotype-phenotype map for this intriguing protein family.

Abstract
Human protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is a ubiquitous non-receptor tyrosine phosphatase that serves as a major negative regulator of tyrosine phosphorylation cascades of metabolic and oncogenic importance such as the insulin, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), and JAK/STAT pathways. Increasing evidence point to a key role of PTP1B-dependent signaling in cancer. Interestingly, genetic defects in PTP1B have been found in different human malignancies. Notably, recurrent somatic mutations and splice variants of PTP1B were identified in human B cell and Hodgkin lymphomas. In this work, we analyzed the molecular and functional levels of three PTP1B mutations identified in primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBCL) patients and located in the WPD-loop (V184D), P-loop (R221G), and Q-loop (G259V). Using biochemical, enzymatic, and molecular dynamics approaches, we show that these mutations lead to PTP1B mutants with extremely low intrinsic tyrosine phosphatase activity that display alterations in overall protein stability and in the flexibility of the active site loops of the enzyme. This is in agreement with the key role of the active site loop regions, which are preorganized to interact with the substrate and to enable catalysis. Our study provides molecular and enzymatic evidence for the loss of protein tyrosine phosphatase activity of PTP1B active-site loop mutants identified in human lymphoma.
