Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is accumulated in platelets and released on stimulation by thrombin or Ca(2+). Thrombin-stimulated S1P release was inhibited by staurosporin, whereas Ca(2+)-stimulated release was not. When the platelet plasma membrane was permeabilized with streptolysin O (SLO), S1P leaked out with cytosol markers, whereas granular markers remained in the platelets. The SLO-induced S1P leakage required BSA, probably for solubilization of S1P in the medium. These results indicate that S1P is localized in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane and that its release is a carrier-mediated process. We also used alpha-toxin (ATX), which makes smaller pores in the plasma membrane than SLO and depletes cytosolic ATP without BSA-dependent S1P leakage. The addition of ATP drove S1P release from ATX platelets. The ATP-driven S1P release from ATX platelets was greatly enhanced by thrombin. An ATP binding cassette transporter inhibitor, glyburide, prevents ATP- and thrombin-induced S1P release from platelets. Ca(2+) also stimulated S1P release from ATX platelets without ATP, whereas the Ca(2+)-induced release was not inhibited by glyburide. Our results indicate that two independent S1P release systems might exist in the platelet plasma membrane, an ATP-dependent system stimulated by thrombin and an ATP-independent system stimulated by Ca(2+). 相似文献

The bioactive molecule sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is abundantly stored in platelets and can be released extracellularly. However, although they have high sphingosine (Sph) kinase activity, platelets lack the de novo sphingolipid biosynthesis necessary to provide the substrates. Here, we reveal a generation pathway for Sph, the precursor of S1P, in human platelets. Platelets incorporated extracellular 3H-labeled Sph much faster than human megakaryoblastic cells and rapidly converted it to S1P. Furthermore, Sph formed from plasma sphingomyelin (SM) by bacterial sphingomyelinase (SMase) and neutral ceramidase (CDase) was rapidly incorporated into platelets and converted to S1P, suggesting that platelets use extracellular Sph as a source of S1P. Platelets abundantly express SM, possibly supplied from plasma lipoproteins, at the cell surface. Treating platelets with bacterial SMase resulted in Sph generation at the cell surface, conceivably by the action of membrane-bound neutral CDase. Simultaneously, a time-dependent increase in S1P levels was observed. Finally, we demonstrated that secretory acid SMase also induces S1P increases in platelets. In conclusion, our results suggest that in platelets, Sph is supplied from at least two sources: generation in the plasma followed by incorporation, and generation at the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, initiated by cell surface SM degradation. 相似文献

Experimental atherosclerosis in rabbits was associated with increased aggregation of their platelets to arachidonic acid, and with increased generation of thromboxane A2 by their platelet-rich plasma. A heightened susceptibility of platelets to the anti-aggregatory action of prostacyclin against the ADP-induced aggregation was also observed. It is concluded that in advance atherosclerosis the platelet system is hypersensitive to biologically active metabolites of arachidonic acid. 相似文献

Latent TGF-beta1 activation by platelets 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Platelets are a major source of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) in the circulation as they release latent growth factor in response to activation. We report here that human platelets, when stimulated with thrombin, activated a significant proportion of the latent TGF-beta released. Latent TGF-beta activation was independent of cytokine release, since activation was delayed compared to platelet degranulation. Activation occured in releasates and did not require the continuous presence of platelets. Classical mechanisms of latent TGF-beta activation were not involved, since activation was not affected by gene deletion and/or inhibitors of the known TGF-beta activators/co-factors, thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), mannose 6-phosphate/insulin-like growth factor-II receptor (M6P/IGF-IIR), plasminogen/plasmin, or several other candidate proteases. In contrast, latent TGF-beta activation was significantly inhibited by the furin inhibitors, decanoyl-Arg-Val-Lys-Arg-chloromethyl ketone and L-hexaarginine. We show that platelets contain a furin-like enzyme which is released upon platelet activation. We conclude that, following activation, platelets release and activate latent TGF-beta1 via mechanisms involving the release and activity of a furin-like proprotein convertase. This novel mechanism of latent TGF-beta activation might represent an important mediator and therapeutic target of platelet TGF-beta1 functions, for example, in early wound repair, fibrosis, or arteriosclerosis. 相似文献

Catecholamines were found to activate Na/H exchange in a concentration-dependent manner in primary cultures of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). The potency order was found to be epinephrine greater than norepinephrine greater than isoproterenol. The major pathway for catecholamine effects appeared to be via interaction with an alpha 1 adrenergic receptor. In addition, it was found that alpha 1 receptor-mediated Na/H exchange in VSMC was increased by angiotensin II and inhibited by 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). Adrenergic receptors have been shown to be coupled to both adenylate cyclase and to inositol phosphate release (Leeb-Lundberg, L. M. F., S. Cotecchia, J. W. Lomasney, J. F. DeBernadis, R. J. Lefkowitz, and M. G. Caron, 1985, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 82:5651-5655.). It was found that catecholamines increased AMP levels in the potency order isoproterenol greater than norepinephrine greater than epinephrine and the receptor involved was a beta adrenergic receptor. Since these findings did not parallel the results obtained for catecholamine stimulation of Na/H exchange, an increase in AMP levels was probably not the mechanism by which major pathway for catecholamine-stimulated Na/H exchange in VSMC (via the alpha 1 receptor) was activated. When the effects of catecholamines were measured on inositol phosphate release, the potency order for catecholamine stimulation was epinephrine greater than norepinephrine greater than isoproterenol, and the receptor involved was an alpha 1 adrenergic receptor. In addition, angiotensin II increased and TPA inhibited catecholamine-stimulated inositol phosphate release. Since these findings paralleled the results obtained for catecholamine stimulation of Na/H exchange, inositol phosphate release may be the mechanism by which the major pathway for catecholamine-stimulated Na/H exchange in VSMC (via the alpha 1 receptor) was activated. 相似文献

In vitro and in vivo evidence indicates that circulating platelets affect both vascular integrity and hemostasis. How platelets enhance the permeability barrier of the vascular endothelium is not well understood. We measured the effect of isolated human platelets on human pulmonary artery endothelial cell (EC) barrier integrity by monitoring transmonolayer electrical resistance. EC barrier function was significantly increased by the addition of platelets ( approximately 40% maximum, 2.5 x 106 platelets/ml). Platelet supernatants, derived from 2.5 x 106 platelets/ml, reproduced the barrier enhancement and reversed the barrier dysfunction produced by the edemagenic agonist thrombin, which implicates a soluble barrier-promoting factor. The barrier-enhancing effect of platelet supernatants was heat stable but was attenuated by either charcoal delipidation (suggesting a vasoactive lipid mediator) or pertussis toxin, implying involvement of a Gialpha-coupled receptor signal transduction pathway. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a sphingolipid that is released from activated platelets, is known to ligate G protein-coupled EC differentiation gene (EDG) receptors, increase EC electrical resistance, and reorganize the actin cytoskeleton (Garcia JG, Liu F, Verin AD, Birukova A, Dechert MA, Gerthoffer WT, Bamberg JR, and English D. J Clin Invest 108: 689-701, 2001). Infection of EC with an adenoviral vector expressing an antisense oligonucleotide directed against EDG-1 but not infection with control vector attenuated the barrier-enhancing effect of both platelet supernatants and S1P. These results indicate that a major physiologically relevant vascular barrier-protective mediator produced by human platelets is S1P. 相似文献

Growth factors released from activated platelets initiate and modulate wound healing in both soft and hard tissues. A recent strategy to promote the wound-healing cascade is to prepare an autologous platelet concentrate suspended in plasma, also known as platelet-rich plasma, that contains growth factors and administer it to wound sites. The purpose of this study was to quantitate platelet number and growth factors released from a prepared platelet concentrate. Whole blood was drawn from 10 healthy patients undergoing cosmetic surgery and concentrated into platelet-rich plasma. Platelet counts on whole blood and platelet-rich plasma were determined using a Cell-Dyn 3200. Platelet-derived growth factor-BB, transforming growth factor-beta1, vascular endothelial growth factor, endothelial growth factor, and insulin-like growth factor-1 were measured in the platelet-rich plasma using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. In addition, platelet activation during the concentration procedure was analyzed by measuring P selectin values in blood serum. An 8-fold increase in platelet concentration was found in the platelet-rich plasma compared with that of whole blood (baseline whole blood, 197 +/- 42 x 10 platelets/microl; platelet concentrate, 1600 +/- 330 x 10 platelets/microl). The concentration of growth factors also increased with increasing platelet number. However, growth factor concentration varied from patient to patient. On average for the whole blood as compared with platelet-rich plasma, the platelet-derived growth factor-BB concentration increased from 3.3 +/- 0.9 ng/ml to 17 +/- 8 ng/ml, transforming growth factor-beta1 concentration increased from 35 +/- 8 ng/ml to 120 +/- 42 ng/ml, vascular endothelial growth factor concentration increased from 155 +/- 110 pg/ml to 955 +/- 1030 pg/ml, and endothelial growth factor concentration increased from 129 +/- 61 pg/ml to 470 +/- 320 pg/ml. No increase was found for insulin-like growth factor-1. In addition, no increase in platelet activation occurred during the concentration procedure as determined by the platelet surface receptor P selectin (45 +/- 16 pg/ml to 52 +/- 11 pg/ml, p = 0.65). In conclusion, a variety of potentially therapeutic growth factors were detected and released from the platelets in significant levels in platelet-rich plasma preparations. Sufficient concentrates and release of these growth factors through autologous platelet gels may be capable of expediting wound healing in a variety of as yet undetermined specific wound applications. 相似文献

Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is an intracellularly generated bioactive lipid essential for development, vascular integrity, and immunity. These functions are mediated by S1P-selective cell surface G-protein coupled receptors. S1P signaling therefore requires extracellular release of this lipid. Several cell types release S1P and evidence for both plasma membrane transporter-mediated and vesicle-dependent secretion has been presented. Platelets are an important source of S1P and can release it in response to agonists generated at sites of vascular injury. S1P release from agonist-stimulated platelets was measured in the presence of a carrier molecule (albumin) using HPLC-MS/MS. The kinetics and agonist-dependence of S1P release were similar to that of other granule cargo e.g. platelet factor IV (PF4). Agonist-stimulated S1P release was defective in platelets from Unc13dJinx (Munc13-4 null) mice demonstrating a critical role for regulated membrane fusion in this process. Consistent with this observation, platelets efficiently converted fluorescent NBD-sphingosine to its phosphorylated derivative which accumulated in granules. Fractionation of platelet organelles revealed the presence of S1P in both the plasma membrane and in α-granules. Resting platelets contained a second pool of constitutively releasable S1P that was more rapidly labeled by exogenously added sphingosine. Our studies indicate that platelets contain two pools of S1P that are released extracellularly: a readily-exchangeable, metabolically active pool of S1P, perhaps in the plasma membrane, and a granular pool that requires platelet activation and regulated exocytosis for release. 相似文献

The role of protein kinase C (PKC) in modulating platelet activation has been examined in platelets pre-incubated with either the PKC activator 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) or the non-specific protein kinase inhibitor, staurosporine. In order to determine where in the signal transduction pathway PKC is exerting its effect platelets were activated either with a receptor-operated stimulus platelet activating factor (PAF) or by direct elevation of [Ca2+]i (ionomycin) or with arachidonic acid which is converted into thromboxane B2 (TxB2). In PAF-stimulated platelets activation of PKC inhibited both [Ca2+]i elevation and TxB2 generation but had no effect on 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) release whilst staurosporine increased the duration of [Ca2+]i elevation and potentiated TxB2 generation but inhibited 5-HT release. In ionomycin-stimulated platelets modulation of PKC had no effect on [Ca2+]i elevation but in contrast to PAF-stimulated platelets PKC activation caused potentiation of TxB2 generation and 5-HT release whilst inhibition of PKC caused inhibition of TxB2 generation and 5-HT release. Modulation of PKC did not affect arachidonic acid-induced TxB2 generation. These findings suggest that in receptor activated platelets endogenously activated PKC is exerting a negative feedback role, however, when [Ca2+]i elevation is not modified by PKC activation or inhibition (such as in ionomycin stimulated platelets) the relationship between the state of PKC activation and subsequent platelet functional responses corresponds more closely. The findings from this study suggest a different relationship between PKC and TxB2 generation than between PKC and dense granule release in PAF-stimulated platelets. 相似文献

Shear stress triggers von Willebrand factor (VWF) binding to platelet glycoprotein Ibalpha and subsequent integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3)-dependent platelet aggregation. Concomitantly, nucleotides are released from plateletdense granules, and ADP is known to contribute to shear-induced platelet aggregation (SIPA). We found that the impaired SIPA of platelets from a Hermansky-Pudlak patient lacking dense granules was restored by exogenous l-beta,gamma-methylene ATP, a stable P2X(1) agonist, as well as by ADP, confirming that in addition to ADP (via P2Y(1) and P2Y(12)), ATP (via P2X(1)) also contributes to SIPA. Likewise, SIPA of apyrase-treated platelets was restored upon P2X(1) activation with l-beta,gamma-methylene ATP, which promoted granule centralization within platelets and stimulated P-selectin expression, which is a marker of alpha-granule release. In addition, during SIPA, platelet degranulation required both extracellular Ca(2+) and VWF-glycoprotein Ibalpha interactions without involving alpha(IIb)beta(3). Neither platelet release nor SIPA was affected by protein kinase C inactivation, even though protein kinase C blockade inhibits platelet responses to collagen and thrombin in stirring conditions. In contrast, inhibiting myosin light chain (MLC) kinase with ML-7 reduced platelet release and SIPA by 30%. Accordingly, the potentiating effect of P2X(1) stimulation on the aggregation of apyrase-treated platelets coincided with intensified phosphorylation of MLC and was abrogated by ML-7. SIPA-induced MLC phosphorylation occurred exclusively through released nucleotides and selective antagonism of P2X(1) with MRS2159-reduced SIPA, ATP release, and potently inhibited MLC phosphorylation. We conclude that the P2X(1) ion channel induces MLC-mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements, thus contributing to SIPA and degranulation during VWF-triggered platelet activation. 相似文献

Severe streptococcal infection is associated with M protein-induced platelet activation and thrombus formation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Disturbed haemostasis is a central finding in severe Streptococcus pyogenes infection. In particular, microthrombi are found both at the local site of infection and at distant sites. Platelets are responsible for maintaining vascular function and haemostasis. We report here that M1 protein of S. pyogenes triggers immune-mediated platelet activation and thrombus formation. M1 protein is released from the bacterial surface and forms complexes with plasma fibrinogen. These complexes bind to the fibrinogen receptor on resting platelets. When these complexes also contain immunoglobulin G (IgG) against M1 protein, this will engage the Fc receptor on the platelets and activation will occur. Activation of the platelets leads to platelet aggregation and the generation of platelet-rich thrombi. Neutrophils and monocytes are in turn activated by the platelets. Platelet thrombi are deposited in the microvasculature, and aggregated platelets, IgG and M1 protein colocalize in biopsies from patients diagnosed with S. pyogenes toxic shock syndrome. This chain of events results in a pro-coagulant and pro-inflammatory state typical of severe S. pyogenes infection. 相似文献

Attenuation of tissue P-selectin and MCP-1 expression and intimal proliferation by AT(1) receptor blockade in hyperlipidemic rabbits 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Angiotensin-II (Ang-II) participates in the development and progression of atherosclerosis by activating type 1 (AT(1)) receptors. In vitro studies show that inflammatory factors, such as P-selectin and MCP-1, which can be upregulated by Ang-II, play an important role in atherogenesis. We examined the effect of AT(1) receptor blockade with losartan on the expression of P-selectin and MCP-1 in hypercholesterolemic rabbits. Since AT(1) receptor blockade is associated with feedback upregulation of renin-angiotensin system (RAS), we also examined alterations in plasma Ang-II levels by losartan therapy. Male NZW rabbits were fed regular chow (high cholesterol diet or high cholesterol diet + losartan 25 mg/kg/day). As expected, there was a marked intimal proliferation in association with increase in serum cholesterol (P < 0.001). In addition, there was a modest increase in plasma Ang-II levels (P < 0.05), and a significant increase in the expression of AT(1) receptors, P-selectin and MCP-1 in aortas of high cholesterol diet rabbits. Concurrent administration of losartan with high cholesterol diet attenuated aortic intimal proliferation induced a fivefold increase in plasma Ang-II levels and caused a marked decrease in expression of P-selectin and MCP-1 without change in serum lipid levels and aortic AT(1) receptor expression. These observations in hypercholesterolemic animal models show that AT(1) receptor blockade is associated with modulation of P-selectin and MCP-1 expression concurrent with reduction in intimal proliferation. The rise in plasma Ang-II does not appear to limit the potential beneficial effect of losartan. 相似文献

Norepinephrine stimulates release of arachidonic acid from tissue lipids. Arachidonic acid metabolites generated through the lipoxygenase and cytochrome P-450 pathways but not cyclooxygenase stimulate mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinase activity and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Moreover, norepinephrine has been shown to activate the Ras/MAP kinase pathway through generation of cytochrome P450 metabolite of arachidonic acid, 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE). The purpose of this study was to investigate the contribution of Ras in norepinephrine-induced mitogenesis in aortic VSMC. Farnesylation of Ras by farnesyl transferase is required for its full activation. Norepinephrine-induced DNA synthesis, as measured by [3H]-thymidine incorporation, was attenuated by inhibitors of Ras farnesyl transferase FPT III and BMS-191563. These agents also inhibited 20-HETE-stimulated [3H]-thymidine incorporation. In cells transiently transfected with dominant negative Ras (RasN17), norepinephrine, and 20-HETE-induced proliferation of VSMC was attenuated. Both norepinephrine and 20-HETE increased localization of Ras to plasma membrane and MAP kinase activity; FPT III attenuated these effects. These data suggest that VSMC proliferation induced by norepinephrine and 20-HETE is mediated by Ras/MAP kinase pathway. 相似文献

Platelet-derived mediators may play an important role in the development of renal diseases through interaction with glomerular mesangial cells (MCs), and we, in this study, examined the effect of sphingosine 1-phosphate (Sph-1-P), a bioactive lipid released from activated platelets, on the contraction of MCs. Sph-1-P was found to induce MC contraction through mediation of Rho kinase both in cell shape change and collagen gel contraction assays. The specific antagonist of the Sph-1-P receptor S1P(2) inhibited the response. Similar results were obtained when the supernatant from activated platelet suspensions were used instead of Sph-1-P. Our findings suggest that platelet-derived Sph-1-P may be involved in MC contraction via S1P(2) and that regulation of this receptor might be useful therapeutically. 相似文献

Cigarette smoke has been firmly established as an independent risk factor for atherosclerosis and other vascular diseases. The proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) induced by growth factors have been proposed to play an important role in the progression of atherosclerosis. In the present study, we investigated the effects of nicotine, which is one of the important constituents of cigarette smoke, on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) release, in rat VSMC. The stimulation of cells with nicotine resulted in a time- and concentration-dependent release of VEGF. Hexamethonium, an antagonist of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR), inhibited nicotine-induced VEGF release. We next investigated the mechanisms by which nicotine induces VEGF release in the cells. The nicotine-induced VEGF release was inhibited by treatment with U0126, a selective inhibitor of MEK, which attenuated the nicotine-induced ERK phosphorylation. Nicotine induced a transient phosphorylation of ERK. Furthermore, AG1478, a selective inhibitor of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase, inhibited nicotine-induced ERK phosphorylation and VEGF release. These data suggest that nicotine releases VEGF through nAChR in VSMC. Moreover, VEGF release induced by nicotine is mediated by an EGFR-ERK pathway in VSMC. VEGF may contribute to the risk of cardiovascular diseases in cigarette smokers. 相似文献

An accumulation of milk fat globule EGF-8 protein (MFG-E8) occurs within the context of arterial wall inflammatory remodeling during aging, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, or atherosclerosis. MFG-E8 induces VSMC invasion, but whether it affects VSMC proliferation, a salient feature of arterial inflammation, is unknown. Here, we show that in the rat arterial wall in vivo, PCNA and Ki67, markers of cell cycle activation, increase with age between 8 and 30 months. In fresh and early passage VSMC isolated from old aortae, an increase in CDK4 and PCNA, an increase in the acceleration of cell cycle S and G2 phases, decrease in the G1/G0 phase, and an increase in PDGF and its receptors confer elevated proliferative capacity, compared to young VSMC. Increased coexpression and physical interaction of MFG-E8 and integrin αvβ5 occur with aging in both the rat aortic wall in vivo and in VSMC in vitro. In young VSMC in vitro, MFG-E8 added exogenously, or overexpressed endogenously, triggers phosphorylation of ERK1/2, augmented levels of PCNA and CDK4, increased BrdU incorporation, and promotes proliferation, via αvβ5 integrins. MFG-E8 silencing, or its receptor inhibition, or the blockade of ERK1/2 phosphorylation in these cells reduces PCNA and CDK4 levels and decelerates the cell cycle S phase, conferring a reduction in proliferative capacity. Collectively, these results indicate that MFG-E8 in a dose-dependent manner coordinates the expression of cell cycle molecules and facilitates VSMC proliferation via integrin/ERK1/2 signaling. Thus, an increase in MFG-E8 signaling is a mechanism of the age-associated increase in aortic VSMC proliferation. 相似文献

Diadenosine 5',5'-P1,P2-diphosphate (Ap2A) is one of the adenylic dinucleotides stored in platelet granules. Along with proaggregant ADP, it is released upon platelet activation and is known to stimulate myocyte proliferation. We have previously demonstrated synthesis of Ap2A and of two isomers thereof, called P18 and P24, from their high pressure liquid chromatography retention time, by the ADP-ribosyl cyclase CD38 in mammalian cells. Here we show that Ap2A and its isomers are present in resting human platelets and are released during thrombin-induced platelet activation. The three adenylic dinucleotides were identified by high pressure liquid chromatography through a comparison with the retention times and the absorption spectra of purified standards. Ap2A, P18, and P24 had no direct effect on platelet aggregation, but they inhibited platelet aggregation induced by physiological agonists (thrombin, ADP, and collagen), with mean IC(50) values ranging between 5 and 15 mum. Moreover, the three dinucleotides did not modify the intracellular calcium concentration in resting platelets, whereas they significantly reduced the thrombin-induced intracellular calcium increase. Through binding to the purinergic receptor P2Y(11), exogenously applied Ap2A, P18, and P24 increased the intracellular cAMP concentration and stimulated platelet production of nitric oxide, the most important endogenous antiaggregant. The presence of Ap2A, P18, and P24 in resting platelets and their release during thrombin-induced platelet activation at concentrations equal to or higher than the respective IC(50) value on platelet aggregation suggest a role of these dinucleotides as endogenous negative modulators of aggregation. 相似文献

Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a ligand for endothelial differentiation gene family proteins, is one of the most potent signal mediators released from activated platelets. Here, we report that S1P induces membrane ruffling of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) via the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), Src family tyrosine kinase(s), and the CrkII adaptor protein. S1P induced prominent phosphorylation of CrkII in HUVECs, indicating that CrkII was involved in the S1P-induced signaling pathway. S1P-induced CrkII phosphorylation was blocked by pertussis toxin and overexpression of the carboxyl terminus of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, indicating that the betagamma subunit of G(i) was required for the phosphorylation. Notably, the S1P-induced CrkII phosphorylation was also abolished by inhibitors of VEGFR or Src family tyrosine kinases. By using Picchu, a real time monitoring protein for CrkII phosphorylation, we found that S1P induced rapid CrkII phosphorylation at membrane ruffles. Finally, we observed that expression of a dominant negative mutant of CrkII inhibited the S1P-induced membrane ruffling and cell migration. These results delineated a novel S1P signaling pathway that involves sequential activation of G(i)-coupled receptor(s), VEGFR, Src family tyrosine kinase(s), and the CrkII adaptor protein, and which is responsible for both the induction of membrane ruffling and the increase in cell motility. 相似文献
