Thrombin is a potent mitogen for vascular smooth muscle cells. However, the signaling pathways by which thrombin mediates its mitogenic response are not fully understood. The ERK (extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase) and JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family are reported to be activated by thrombin. We have investigated the response to thrombin of another member of the MAPK family, p38 MAPK, which has been suggested to be activated by both stress and inflammatory stimuli in vascular smooth muscle cells. We found that thrombin induced time- and dose-dependent activation of p38 MAPK. Maximal stimulation of p38 MAPK was observed after a 10-min incubation with 1 unit ml(-1) thrombin. GF109203X, a protein kinase C inhibitor, and prolonged treatment with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate partially inhibited p38 MAPK activation. A tyrosine kinase inhibitor, genistein, also inhibited p38 MAPK activation in a dose-dependent manner. p38 MAPK activation was inhibited by overexpression of betaARK1ct (beta-adrenergic receptor kinase I C-terminal peptide). p38 MAPK activation was also inhibited by expression of dominant-negative Ras, not by dominant-negative Rac. We next examined the effect of a p38 MAPK inhibitor, SB203580, on thrombin-induced proliferation. SB203580 inhibited thrombin-induced DNA synthesis in a dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that thrombin activates p38 MAPK in a manner dependent on Gbetagamma, protein kinase C, a tyrosine kinase, and Ras, that p38 MAPK has a role in thrombin-induced mitogenic response in the cells. 相似文献

G-protein-coupled receptors signal through Rho to induce actin cytoskeletal rearrangement. We previously demonstrated that thrombin stimulates Rho-dependent process retraction and rounding of 1321N1 astrocytoma cells. Surprisingly, while lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) activated RhoA in 1321N1 cells, it failed to produce cell rounding. Thrombin, unlike LPA, decreased Rac1 activity, and activated (GTPase-deficient) Rac1 inhibited thrombin-stimulated cell rounding, while expression of dominant-negative Rac1 promoted LPA-induced rounding. LPA and thrombin receptors appear to differ in coupling to Gi, as LPA but not thrombin-stimulated 1321N1 cell proliferation was pertussis toxin-sensitive. Blocking Gi with pertussis toxin enabled LPA to induce cell rounding and to decrease activated Rac1. These data support the hypothesis that Rac1 and Gi activation antagonize cell rounding. Thrombin and LPA receptors also differentially activated Gq pathways as thrombin but not LPA increased InsP3 formation and reduced phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) levels. Microinjection of the plekstrin homology domain of phospholipase C (PLC)delta1, which binds PIP2, enabled LPA to elicit cell rounding, consistent with a requirement for PIP2 reduction. We suggest that Rho-mediated cytoskeletal responses are enhanced by concomitant reductions in cellular levels of PIP2 and Rac1 activation and thus effected only by G-protein-coupled receptors with appropriate subsets of G protein activation. 相似文献

The serine protease thrombin activates G protein signaling systems that lead to Ras activation and, in certain cells, proliferation. Whereas the steps leading to Ras activation by G protein-coupled receptors are not well defined, the mechanisms of Ras activation by receptor tyrosine kinases have recently been elucidated biochemically and genetically. The present study was undertaken to determine whether common signaling components are used by these two distinct classes of receptors. Here we report that the adaptor protein Shc, is phosphorylated on tyrosine residues following stimulation of the thrombin receptor in growth-responsive CCL39 fibroblasts. Shc phosphorylation by thrombin or the thrombin receptor agonist peptide is maximal by 15 min and persists for > or = 2 h. Following thrombin stimulation, phosphorylated Shc is recruited to Grb2 complexes. One or more pertussis toxin-insensitive proteins appear to mediate this effect, since (i) pertussis toxin pre-treatment of cells does not blunt the action of thrombin and (ii) Shc phosphorylation on tyrosine can be stimulated by the muscarinic m1 receptor. Shc phosphorylation does not appear to involve protein kinase C, since the addition of 4-beta-phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate has no effect. Rather, thrombin-induced Shc phosphorylation is enhanced in cells depleted of phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase C isoforms. Expression of mutant Shc proteins defective in Grb2 binding displays a dominant-negative effect on thrombin-stimulated p44 MAP kinase activation, gene induction and cell growth. From these data, we conclude that Shc represents a crucial point of convergence between signaling pathways activated by receptor tyrosine kinases and G protein-coupled receptors. 相似文献

Thrombin signalling through PAR (protease-activated receptor)-1 is involved in cellular processes, such as proliferation, differentiation and cell survival. Following traumatic injury to the eye, thrombin signalling may participate in disorders, such as PVR (proliferative vitreoretinopathy), a human eye disease characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation, transdifferentiation and migration of otherwise quiescent RPE (retinal pigment epithelium) cells. PARs activate the Ras/Raf/MEK/ERK MAPK pathway (where ERK is extracellular-signal-regulated kinase, MAPK is mitogen-activated protein kinase and MEK is MAPK/ERK kinase) through the activation of G(alpha) and G(betagamma) heterotrimeric G-proteins, and the downstream stimulation of the PLC (phospholipase C)-beta/PKC (protein kinase C) and PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) signalling axis. In the present study, we examined the molecular signalling involved in thrombin-induced RPE cell proliferation, using rat RPE cells in culture as a model system for PVR pathogenesis. Our results showed that thrombin activation of PAR-1 induces RPE cell proliferation through Ras-independent activation of the Raf/MEK/ERK1/2 MAPK signalling cascade. Pharmacological analysis revealed that the activation of 'conventional' PKC isoforms is essential for proliferation, although thrombin-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 requires the activation of atypical PKCzeta by PI3K. Consistently, thrombin-induced ERK1/2 activation and RPE cell proliferation were prevented completely by PI3K or PKCzeta inhibition. These results suggest that thrombin induces RPE cell proliferation by joint activation of PLC-dependent and atypical PKC isoforms and the Ras-independent downstream stimulation of the Raf/MEK/ERK1/2 MAPK cascade. The present study is the first report demonstrating directly thrombin-induced ERK phosphorylation in the RPE, and the involvement of atypical PKCzeta in this process. 相似文献

We addressed the mechanisms of restoration of cell surface proteinase-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) by investigating thrombin-activated signaling pathways involved in PAR-1 re-expression in endothelial cells. Exposure of endothelial cells transfected with PAR-1 promoter-luciferase reporter construct to either thrombin or PAR-1 activating peptide increased the steady-state PAR-1 mRNA and reporter activity, respectively. Pretreatment of reporter-transfected endothelial cells with pertussis toxin or co-expression of a minigene encoding 11-amino acid sequence of COOH-terminal Galphai prevented the thrombin-induced increase in reporter activity. Pertussis toxin treatment also prevented thrombin-induced MAPK phosphorylation, indicating a role of Galphai in activating the downstream MAPK pathway. Expression of constitutively active Galphai2 mutant or Gbeta1gamma2 subunits increased reporter activity 3-4-fold in the absence of thrombin stimulation. Co-expression of dominant negative mutants of either Ras or MEK1 with the reporter construct inhibited the thrombin-induced PAR-1 expression, whereas constitutively active forms of either Ras or MEK1 activated PAR-1 expression in the absence of thrombin stimulation. Expression of dominant negative Src kinase or inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-kinase also prevented the MAPK activation and PAR-1 expression. We conclude that thrombin-induced activation of PAR-1 mediates PAR-1 expression by signaling through Gi1/2 coupled to Src and phosphoinositide 3-kinase, and thereby activating the downstream Ras/MAPK cascade. 相似文献

Recently, we reported that in mouse mastocytoma P-815 cells the cytosol contains some factor(s) which promotes the release of GTP-activated Gi2 alpha from the membrane, and that thrombin induces the translocation of Gi2 alpha from the membrane to the cytosol (Takahashi, S., Negishi, M. and Ichikawa, A. (1991) J. Biol. Chem. 266, 5367-5370). Here we investigated the mechanism underlying the thrombin-induced translocation of Gi2 alpha in mastocytoma cells. Thrombin induced a rapid and transient increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) within 1 min, attenuated pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of Gi2 in the membrane, and caused the subsequent translocation of Gi2 alpha. Thrombin induced the translocation of protein kinase C from the cytosol to the membrane, and a protein kinase C inhibitor, staurosporine, completely inhibited the thrombin-induced translocation of Gi2 alpha. When cells were treated with thrombin, the ability of the cytosol to release Gi2 alpha from the membrane in the presence of GTP gamma S markedly increased. This stimulatory effect of thrombin on the ability of the cytosol was mimicked by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA), but not by the Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin. The thrombin- and TPA-induced potentiation of the ability of the cytosol to release Gi2 alpha was completely abolished by staurosporine. Furthermore, phosphorylation of the cytosol by protein kinase C markedly potentiated the ability of the cytosol to release Gi2 alpha. These results together demonstrate that the thrombin-induced translocation of Gi2 alpha is due to enhancement of the ability of the cytosol to release Gi2 alpha via activation of protein kinase C. 相似文献

Thrombin, a potent mitogen for CCL39 hamster lung fibroblasts, activates the seven membrane-spanning receptor PAR1. To better understand the signaling pathways controlled by this receptor we analyzed a potential downstream effector, p21-activated protein kinase (PAK). Thrombin and PAR1 agonist peptide, as well as serum and lysophosphatidic acid, were found to stimulate HA-mPAK3 activity in CCL39 cells transfected with a plasmid encoding the epitope-tagged kinase. Similar results were obtained using antibodies developed against the endogenous kinase. PAK3 activation is sensitive to pertussis toxin, but insensitive to LY 294002, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase. Thrombin and serum also activate c-jun amino terminal kinase (JNK). Similar to PAK3 activation, thrombin-stimulated JNK activity is inhibited by pertussis toxin, but not by LY 294002. In a CCL39-derived cell line expressing constitutively active mPAK3 in a tetracyline-dependent manner, induction of PAK activity does not lead to corresponding increases in JNK activity. Our findings indicate that PAK3 is responsive to thrombin and other G protein-coupled receptor systems. Furthermore, our data suggest that in CCL39 cells, JNK activation by thrombin occurs independently of PAK3. 相似文献

Thrombin, a multifunctional serine protease, is generated at the site with vascular injuries. It not only participates in the coagulation cascade, but also can induce a lot of events related to cell mitogenesis and migration. In this study, we investigated the effect of thrombin on endothelial cell proliferation induced by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Thrombin promoted proliferation of cultured bovine carotid endothelial cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Moreover, it drastically enhanced the cell growth stimulated by VEGF. This stimulatory effect was reduced by inhibitors of either protein kinase C (PKC) or mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK). Thrombin induced a significant increase in the level of mRNA of the kinase domain-containing receptor (KDR), but not tms-like tyrosine kinase (Flt-1), in a time-dependent manner, which reached the maximum after 24 h of stimulation. This increase coincides well with the KDR protein expression. The luciferase assay showed that thrombin induced an about 7.5-fold increase in the KDR promoter activity compared with the control. This enhanced KDR promoter activity was also abolished by inhibitors of either PKC or MAPKK. The deletion analyses indicated that the region between -115 and -97 (containing Sp1 binding region) within the KDR promoter gene was required for the enhanced KDR expression induced by thrombin and VEGF. Moreover, the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitor abolished both the accelerated cell proliferation and the increased KDR expression induced by thrombin and VEGF. This inhibition was abrogated by DETA NONOate, a NO donor with long half-life. These findings suggest that thrombin might potentiate the VEGF-induced angiogenic activity through increasing the level of the VEGF receptor KDR, in which production of NO is involved. 相似文献

We recently isolated a cDNA clone encoding a functional platelet thrombin receptor that defined a unique mechanism of receptor activation. Thrombin cleaves its receptor''s extracellular amino terminal extension, unmasking a new amino terminus that functions as a tethered peptide ligand and activates the receptor. A novel peptide mimicking this new amino terminus was a full agonist for platelet secretion and aggregation, suggesting that this unusual mechanism accounts for platelet activation by thrombin. Does this mechanism also mediate thrombin''s assorted actions on non-platelet cells? We now report that the novel thrombin receptor agonist peptide reproduces thrombin-induced events (specifically, phosphoinositide hydrolysis and mitogenesis) in CCL-39 hamster lung fibroblasts, a naturally thrombin- responsive cell line. Moreover, these thrombin-induced events could be recapitulated in CV-1 cells, normally poorly responsive to thrombin, after transfection with human platelet thrombin receptor cDNA. Our data show that important thrombin-induced cellular events are mediated by the same unusual mechanism of receptor activation in both platelets and fibroblasts, very likely via the same or very similar receptors. 相似文献

Acetylcholine muscarinic m2 receptors (m2R) couple to heterotrimeric Gi proteins and activate the Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase in Rat 1a cells. In contrast to the m2R, stimulation of the acetylcholine muscarinic m1 receptor (m1R) does not activate the Ras/Raf/mitogen-activated protein kinase regulatory pathway in Rat 1a cells but rather causes a pronounced inhibition of epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor activation of Raf. In Rat 1a cells, m1R stimulation of phospholipase C beta and the marked rise in intracellular calcium stimulated cyclic AMP (cAMP) synthesis, resulting in the activation of protein kinase A. Stimulation of protein kinase A inhibited Raf activation in response to growth factors. Platelet-derived growth factor receptor stimulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase activity was not affected by either m1R stimulation or protein kinase A activation in response to forskolin-stimulated cAMP synthesis. GTP loading of Ras in response to growth factors was unaffected by protein kinase A activation but was partially inhibited by carbachol stimulation of the m1R. Therefore, protein kinase A action at the Ras/Raf activation interface selectively inhibited only one branch of the signal transduction network initiated by tyrosine kinases. Specific adenylyl cyclases responding to different signals, including calcium, with enhanced cAMP synthesis will regulate Raf activation in response to Ras.GTP. Taken together, the data indicate that G protein-coupled receptors can positively and negatively regulate the responsiveness of tyrosine kinase-stimulated mitogenic response pathways. 相似文献

The role of the Ca2+-sensitive tyrosine kinase Pyk2 and Src in thrombin signalling in rat astrocytes
We have recently demonstrated that multiple signalling pathways are involved in thrombin-induced proliferation in rat astrocytes. Thrombin acts by protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) via mitogen-activated protein kinase activity. Signalling includes both Gi/(betagamma subunits)-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and a Gq-phospholipase C/Ca2+/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway. In the present study, we investigated the possible protein tyrosine kinases which might be involved in thrombin signalling cascades. We found that, in astrocytes, thrombin can evoke phosphorylation of proline-rich tyrosine kinase (Pyk2) via PAR-1. This process is dependent on the increase in intracellular Ca2+ and PKC activity. Moreover, in response to thrombin stimulation Pyk2 formed a complex with Src tyrosine kinase and adapter protein growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2), which could be coprecipitated. Furthermore, both thrombin-induced Pyk2 phosphorylation and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 phosphorylation can be attenuated by Src kinase inhibitor 4-amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine. From these data we conclude that PAR-1 uses Ca2+- and PKC-dependent Pyk2 to activate Src, thereby leading to ERK1/2 activation, which predominantly recruits Grb2 in rat astrocytes. 相似文献

Thrombin is believed to activate platelets via cell surface receptors coupled to G proteins. In order to better understand this process, we have examined the interaction of thrombin with HEL cells, a leukemic cell line that has served as a useful model for studies of platelet structure and function. In HEL cells, as in platelets, thrombin stimulated inositol trisphosphate (IP3) formation and suppressed cAMP synthesis. Both events were inhibited by pertussis toxin with 50% inhibition occurring at a toxin concentration that ADP-ribosylated 50% of the Gi alpha subunits present in HEL cells. IP3 formation was also stimulated by a second serine protease, trypsin. The trypsin response was identical to the thrombin response in time course, magnitude, and pertussis toxin sensitivity, suggesting that a similar mechanism is involved. Agonist-induced changes in the cytosolic-free Ca2+ concentration were used to test this hypothesis. Both proteases caused a transient increase in intracellular calcium [Ca2+]i that could be inhibited with D-phenylalanyl-L-prolyl-L-arginine chloromethyl ketone thrombin. Exposure to either protease desensitized HEL cells against subsequent increases in [Ca2+]i and IP3 caused by the other, although responses to other agonists were retained. This loss of responsiveness persisted despite repeated washing of the cells and the addition of hirudin. Complete recovery occurred after 20 h and could be prevented with cycloheximide. These observations suggest that 1) HEL cell thrombin receptors, like those on platelets, are coupled to phospholipase C and adenylylcyclase by pertussis toxin-sensitive G proteins, 2) the G proteins involved are equally accessible to pertussis toxin in situ, 3) when access is limited to the outside of the cell the response mechanisms for thrombin and trypsin are similar, if not identical, despite the broader substrate specificity of trypsin, 4) both proteases cause persistent changes that may involve proteolysis of their receptors or associated proteins, and 5) desensitization of the thrombin response occurs at a step no later than the activation of phospholipase C and requires protein synthesis for recovery. 相似文献

The protease thrombin is a potent activator of various cell types. Thrombin cleaves and thereby activates its own seven-transmembrane-domain receptor which couples to G proteins. Thrombin also can inhibit neuronal differentiation, supposedly by degrading components of the extracellular matrix. Here we report that active thrombin induces immediate cell rounding and neurite retraction in differentiating N1E-115 and NG108-15 neural cells in serum-free culture. Serum (0.5-5% vol/vol) evokes similar responses, but the cell-rounding and neurite-retracting activity of serum is not attributable to thrombin. Neural cell rounding is transient, subsiding after 10-15 min, and subject to homologous desensitization, whereas retracted neurites rapidly degenerate. Thrombin action is inhibited by cytochalasin, but not colchicine. A novel 14-amino acid peptide agonist of the thrombin receptor fully mimics thrombin's morphoregulatory activity, indicating that thrombin-induced shape changes are receptor-mediated and not secondary to extracellular matrix degradation. Although thrombin receptors couple to phosphoinositide hydrolysis and Ca2+ mobilization, thrombin-induced shape changes appear to depend neither on the Ca2+/protein kinase C- nor the cyclic nucleotide-mediated signal transduction pathways; however, the morphological response to thrombin is blocked by pervanadate, an inhibitor of tyrosine phosphatases, and by broad-specificity kinase inhibitors. Our results suggest that the thrombin receptor communicates to an as-yet-uncharacterized effector to reorganize the actin cytoskeleton and to reverse the differentiated phenotype of neural cells. 相似文献

Thrombin induces rapid and reversible increase of endothelial (EC) barrier permeability associated with actin cytoskeleton remodeling and contraction. The role of microtubules (Mts) in EC barrier regulation compared with actin systems is poorly understood. In this work we studied pathways of Mt and actin regulation in response to thrombin treatment in cultured EC, and the involvement of trimeric G-proteins and in this process. Cells were treated with thrombin, and further analysed using immunofluorescent staining of actin and Mts, digital microscopy and morphometric analysis. In normal cells actin network consists of thin bundles basically located in the cell periphery, Mt density decreases from the cell center to the cell edge. Thrombin (25 nM) induced endothelial dysfunction associated with a rapid (within 5 min) decrease of peripheral Mt network and a slower actin stress fiber formation in the cytoplasm. Pretreatment with Pertussis toxin, which is Gi protein inhibitor, attenuated thrombin-induced stress fiber formation and Mt disassembly. Overexpression of activated G12, G13, Gi and Gq proteins, which are involved in thrombin receptor-mediated signaling, resulted in increasing stress fibers thickness and density and complete Mt disassembly. From the results obtained we suggest that thrombin regulates actin cytoskeleton of EC using local Mt depolymerization at the cell edge. 相似文献
