The organization of the actin cytoskeleton can be regulated by soluble factors that trigger signal transduction events involving the Rho family of GTPases. Since adhesive interactions are also capable of organizing the actin-based cytoskeleton, we examined the role of Cdc42-, Rac-, and Rho-dependent signaling pathways in regulating the cytoskeleton during integrin-mediated adhesion and cell spreading using dominant-inhibitory mutants of these GTPases. When Rat1 cells initially adhere to the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin, punctate focal complexes form at the cell periphery. Concomitant with focal complex formation, we observed some phosphorylation of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src, which occurred independently of Rho family GTPases. However, subsequent phosphorylation of FAK and paxillin occurs in a Rho-dependent manner. Moreover, we found Rho dependence of the assembly of large focal adhesions from which actin stress fibers radiate. Initial adhesion to fibronectin also stimulates membrane ruffling; we show that this ruffling is independent of Rho but is dependent on both Cdc42 and Rac. Furthermore, we observed that Cdc42 controls the integrin-dependent activation of extracellular signal–regulated kinase 2 and of Akt, a kinase whose activity has been demonstrated to be dependent on phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase. Since Rac-dependent membrane ruffling can be stimulated by PI 3-kinase, it appears that Cdc42, PI 3-kinase, and Rac lie on a distinct pathway that regulates adhesion-induced membrane ruffling. In contrast to the differential regulation of integrin-mediated signaling by Cdc42, Rac, and Rho, we observed that all three GTPases regulate cell spreading, an event that may indirectly control cellular architecture. Therefore, several separable signaling pathways regulated by different members of the Rho family of GTPases converge to control adhesion-dependent changes in the organization of the cytoskeleton, changes that regulate cell morphology and behavior. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease characterized by progressive cartilage degradation, in which elevated chondrocyte apoptosis and catabolic activity play an important role. MicroRNA‐155 (miR‐155) has recently been shown to regulate apoptosis and catabolic activity in some pathological circumstances, yet, whether and how miR‐155 is associated with OA pathology remain unexplored. We report here that miR‐155 level is significantly up‐regulated in human OA cartilage biopsies and also in primary chondrocytes stimulated by interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), a pivotal pro‐catabolic factor promoting cartilage degradation. Moreover, miR‐155 inhibition attenuates and its overexpression promotes IL‐1β‐induced apoptosis and catabolic activity in chondrocytes in vitro. We also demonstrate that the PIK3R1 (p85α regulatory subunit of phosphoinositide 3‐kinase (PI3K)) is a target of miR‐155 in chondrocytes, and more importantly, PIK3R1 restoration abrogates miR‐155 effects on chondrocyte apoptosis and catabolic activity. Mechanistically, PIK3R1 positively regulates the transduction of PI3K/Akt pathway, and a specific Akt inhibitor reverses miR‐155 effects on promoting chondrocyte apoptosis and catabolic activity, phenocopying the results obtained via PIK3R1 knockdown, hence establishing that miR‐155 promotes chondrocyte apoptosis and catabolic activity through targeting PIK3R1‐mediated PI3K/Akt pathway activation. Altogether, our study discovers novel roles and mechanisms of miR‐155 in regulating chondrocyte apoptosis and catabolic activity, providing an implication for therapeutically intervening cartilage degradation and OA progression. 相似文献

The role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, rho family GTPases, and STAT3 in Ros-induced cell transformation. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Kevin T Nguyen Cong S Zong Shailaja Uttamsingh Pallavi Sachdev Monica Bhanot Mai-Thao Le Joseph L-K Chan Lu-Hai Wang 《The Journal of biological chemistry》2002,277(13):11107-11115
Using loss-of-function mutants of Ros and inducible epidermal growth factor receptor-Ros chimeras we investigated the role of various signaling pathways in Ros-induced cell transformation. Inhibition of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway with the MEK (MAP/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase) inhibitor PD98059 had little effect on the Ros-induced monolayer and anchorage-independent growth of chicken embryo fibroblasts and NIH3T3 cells even though more than 70% of the MAPK was inhibited. In contrast, inhibiting the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway with the drug LY294002, a dominant negative mutant of PI3K, Deltap85, or the phosphatidylinositol phosphatase PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted in chromosome ten) resulted in a dramatic reduction of v-Ros- and epidermal growth factor receptor-Ros-promoted anchorage-independent growth of chicken embryo fibroblasts and NIH3T3 cells, respectively. Parallel and downstream components of PI3K signaling such as the Rho family GTPases (Rac, Rho, Cdc42) and the survival factor Akt were all shown to contribute to Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth, although Rac appeared to be less important for Ros-induced colony formation in NIH3T3 cells. Furthermore, the transformation-attenuated v-Ros mutants F419 and DI could be complemented by constitutively active mutants of PI3K and Akt. Finally, we found that overexpressing a constitutively active mutant of STAT3 (STAT3C) conferred a resistance to the inhibition of Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth by LY294002, suggesting a possible overlap of functions between PI3K and STAT3 signaling in mediating Ros-induced anchorage-independent growth. 相似文献

Although Akt plays key roles in various cellular processes, the functions of Akt and Akt downstream signaling pathways in the cellular processes of skeletal development remain to be clarified. By analyzing transgenic embryos that expressed constitutively active Akt (myrAkt) or dominant-negative Akt in chondrocytes, we found that Akt positively regulated the four processes of chondrocyte maturation, chondrocyte proliferation, cartilage matrix production, and cell growth in skeletal development. As phosphorylation of GSK3β, S6K, and FoxO3a was enhanced in the growth plates of myrAkt transgenic mice, we examined the Akt downstream signaling pathways by organ culture. The Akt-mTOR pathway was responsible for positive regulation of the four cellular processes. The Akt-FoxO pathway enhanced chondrocyte proliferation but inhibited chondrocyte maturation and cartilage matrix production, while the Akt-GSK3 pathway negatively regulated three of the cellular processes in limb skeletons but not in vertebrae due to less GSK3 expression in vertebrae. These findings indicate that Akt positively regulates the cellular processes of skeletal growth and endochondral ossification, that the Akt-mTOR, Akt-FoxO, and Akt-GSK3 pathways positively or negatively regulate the cellular processes, and that Akt exerts its function in skeletal development by tuning the three pathways in a manner dependent on the skeletal part. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis is characterized by degenerative alterations of articular cartilage including both the degradation of extracellular matrix and the death of chondrocytes. The PI3K/Akt pathway has been demonstrated to involve in both processes. Inhibition of its downstream target NF‐kB reduces the degradation of extracellular matrix via decreased production of matrix metalloproteinases while inhibition of mTOR increased autophagy to reduce chondrocyte death. However, mTOR feedback inhibits the activity of the PI3K/Akt pathway and inhibition of mTOR could result in increased activity of the PI3K/Akt/NF‐kB pathway. We proposed that the use of dual inhibitors of PI3K and mTOR could be a promising approach to more efficiently inhibit the PI3K/Akt pathway than rapamycin or PI3K inhibitor alone and produce better treatment outcome.

Integrins and cell signaling in chondrocytes 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Integrins are adhesion receptor heterodimers that transmit information from the extracellular matrix (ECM) to the cell through activation of cell signaling pathways. Chondrocytes express several members of the integrin family including alpha5beta1 which is the primary chondrocyte receptor for fibronectin. Cell signaling mediated through integrins regulates several chondrocyte functions including differentiation, matrix remodeling, responses to mechanical stimulation and cell survival. Integrin-mediated activation of members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family likely plays a key role in transmitting signals regulating chondrocyte gene expression. Upstream mediators of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) activation include focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (pyk2) which are both expressed by chondrocytes. A better understanding of chondrocyte integrin signaling is needed to define the mechanisms by which the ECM regulates chondrocyte function. 相似文献

High density lipoprotein-induced endothelial nitric-oxide synthase activation is mediated by Akt and MAP kinases 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
High density lipoprotein (HDL) activates endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS), leading to increased production of the antiatherogenic molecule NO. A variety of stimuli regulate eNOS activity through signaling pathways involving Akt kinase and/or mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. In the present study, we investigated the role of kinase cascades in HDL-induced eNOS stimulation in cultured endothelial cells and COS M6 cells transfected with eNOS and the HDL receptor, scavenger receptor B-I. HDL (10-50 microg/ml, 20 min) caused eNOS phosphorylation at Ser-1179, and dominant negative Akt inhibited both HDL-mediated phosphorylation and activation of the enzyme. Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3 kinase) inhibition or dominant negative PI3 kinase also blocked the phosphorylation and activation of eNOS by HDL. Studies with genistein and PP2 showed that the nonreceptor tyrosine kinase, Src, is an upstream stimulator of the PI3 kinase-Akt pathway in this paradigm. In addition, HDL activated MAP kinase through PI3 kinase, and mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase inhibition fully attenuated eNOS stimulation by HDL without affecting Akt or eNOS Ser-1179 phosphorylation. Conversely, dominant negative Akt did not alter HDL-induced MAP kinase activation. These results indicate that HDL stimulates eNOS through common upstream, Src-mediated signaling, which leads to parallel activation of Akt and MAP kinases and their resultant independent modulation of the enzyme. 相似文献

The failure of chondrocytes to replace the lost extracellular matrix contributes to the progression of degenerative disorders of cartilage. Inflammatory mediators present in the joint regulate the breakdown of the established matrix and the synthesis of new extracellular matrix molecules. In the present study, we investigated the effects of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on chondrocyte morphology and matrix gene expression. Chondrocytes were isolated from distal femoral condyles of neonatal rats. Cells in primary culture displayed a cobblestone appearance. EGF, but not TNF-alpha, increased the number of cells exhibiting an elongated morphology. TNF-alpha potentiated the effect of EGF on chondrocyte morphology. Individually, TNF-alpha and EGF diminished levels of aggrecan and type II collagen mRNA. In combination, the effects of TNF-alpha and EGF were additive, indicating the involvement of discrete signaling pathways. Cell viability was not compromised by TNF-alpha or by EGF, alone or in combination. EGF alone did not activate NF-kappaB or alter NF-kappaB activation by TNF-alpha. Pharmacologic studies indicated that the effects of TNF-alpha and EGF alone or in combination were independent of protein kinase C signaling, but were dependent on MEK1/2 activity. Finally, we analyzed the involvement of Sox-9 using a reporter construct of the 48 base pair minimal enhancer of type II collagen. TNF-alpha attenuated enhancer activity as expected; in contrast, EGF did not alter either the effect of TNF-alpha or basal activity. TNF-alpha and EGF, acting through distinct signaling pathways, thus have additive adverse effects on chondrocyte function. These findings provide critical insights into the control of chondrocytes through the integration of multiple extracellular signals. 相似文献

The enteric nervous system (ENS) develops from neural crest cells that enter the gut, migrate, proliferate, and differentiate into neurons and glia. The growth factor glial‐derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) stimulates the proliferation and survival of enteric crest‐derived cells. We investigated the intracellular signaling pathways activated by GDNF and their involvement in proliferation. We found that GDNF stimulates the phosphorylation of both the PI 3‐kinase downstream substrate Akt and the MAP kinase substrate ERK in cultures of immunoaffinity‐purified embryonic avian enteric crest‐derived cells. The selective PI 3‐kinase inhibitor LY‐294002 blocked GDNF‐stimulated Akt phosphorylation in purified crest cells, and reduced proliferation in cultures of dissociated quail gut. The ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitors PD 98059 and UO126 did not reduce GDNF‐stimulated proliferation, although PD 98059 blocked GDNF‐stimulated phosphorylation of ERK. We conclude that the PI 3‐kinase pathway is necessary for the GDNF‐stimulated proliferation of enteric neuroblasts. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Neurobiol 47: 306–317, 2001 相似文献

Chondrocyte apoptosis is mainly responsible for the progressive degeneration of cartilage in osteoarthritis (OA). Interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) was widely used as a modulating and chondrocyte apoptosis-inducing agent. Nicotine is able to confer resistance to apoptosis and promote cell survival in some cell lines, but its regulatory mechanism is ambiguous. We aimed to investigate the effect of nicotine on IL-1β-induced chondrocyte apoptosis and the mechanism underlying how nicotine antagonizes IL-1β-induced apoptosis of rat chondrocytes. Chondrocytes isolated from newborn rat joints were exposed to IL-1β. The cell viability was analyzed by the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) assay, and the apoptotic cells were counted with DAPI staining. The levels of Akt, phosphorylated-Akt (p-Akt) and downstream protein targets of Akt were detected by western blotting. The results showed that nicotine neutralized the effect of IL-1β on chondrocytes by activating PI3K/Akt signaling pathways, including the PI3K/Akt/Bcl-2 pathway, to block IL-1β-induced cell apoptosis and the PI3K/Akt/p70S6K (p70S6 kinase)/S6 pathway for promoting protein synthesis, modulating its downstream effectors such as TIMP-1 and MMP-13. Activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway is, in part, required for the effect of nicotine on IL-1β-induced chondrocyte apoptosis in a rat model of osteoarthritis. 相似文献

Fibronectin (FN) is the foremost proliferation‐associated extracellular matrix component promoting cell adhesion, migration, and survival. We examined the effect of FN on cell proliferation and the related signaling pathways in mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells. FN increased integrin β1, Src, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and caveolin‐1 phosphorylation levels in a time‐dependent manner. Phosphorylation of Src, FAK, and caveolin‐1 was attenuated by integrin β1 neutralizing antibody. Integrin β1, Src, and FAK coimmunoprecipitated with caveolin‐1 in the presence of FN. In addition, FN increased RhoA and Rho kinase activation, which were completely blocked by PP2, FAK small interfering RNA (siRNA), caveolin‐1 siRNA, or the caveolar disruptor methyl‐β‐cyclodextrin (MβCD). FN also increased phosphorylation of Akt and ERK 1/2, which were significantly blocked by either FAK siRNA, caveolin‐1 siRNA, MβCD, GGTI‐286 (RhoA inhibitor), or Y‐27632 (Rho kinase inhibitor). FN‐induced increase of protooncogenes (c‐fos, c‐myc, and c‐Jun) and cell‐cycle regulatory proteins (cyclin D1/CDK4 and cyclin E/CDK2) expression levels were attenuated by FAK siRNA or caveolin‐1 siRNA. Furthermore, inhibition of each pathway such as integrin β1, Src, FAK, caveolin‐1, RhoA, Akt, and ERK 1/2 blocked FN‐induced [3H]‐thymidine incorporation. We conclude that FN stimulates mouse ES cell proliferation via RhoA‐PI3K/Akt‐ERK 1/2 pathway through caveolin‐1 phosphorylation. J. Cell. Physiol. 226: 267–275, 2010. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Glia unglued: how signals from the extracellular matrix regulate the development of myelinating glia
The health and function of the nervous system relies on glial cells that ensheath neuronal axons with a specialized plasma membrane termed myelin. The molecular mechanisms by which glial cells target and enwrap axons with myelin are only beginning to be elucidated, yet several studies have implicated extracellular matrix proteins and their receptors as being important extrinsic regulators. This review provides an overview of the extracellular matrix proteins and their receptors that regulate multiple steps in the cellular development of Schwann cells and oligodendrocytes, the myelinating glia of the PNS and CNS, respectively, as well as in the construction and maintenance of the myelin sheath itself. The first part describes the relevant cellular events that are influenced by particular extracellular matrix proteins and receptors, including laminins, collagens, integrins, and dystroglycan. The second part describes the signaling pathways and effector molecules that have been demonstrated to be downstream of Schwann cell and oligodendroglial extracellular matrix receptors, including FAK, small Rho GTPases, ILK, and the PI3K/Akt pathway, and the roles that have been ascribed to these signaling mediators. Throughout, we emphasize the concept of extracellular matrix proteins as environmental sensors that act to integrate, or match, cellular responses, in particular to those downstream of growth factors, to appropriate matrix attachment. 相似文献

Although it is appreciated that canonical signal‐transduction pathways represent dominant modes of regulation embedded in larger interaction networks, relatively little has been done to quantify pathway cross‐talk in such networks. Through quantitative measurements that systematically canvas an array of stimulation and molecular perturbation conditions, together with computational modeling and analysis, we have elucidated cross‐talk mechanisms in the platelet‐derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor signaling network, in which phosphoinositide 3‐kinase (PI3K) and Ras/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (Erk) pathways are prominently activated. We show that, while PI3K signaling is insulated from cross‐talk, PI3K enhances Erk activation at points both upstream and downstream of Ras. The magnitudes of these effects depend strongly on the stimulation conditions, subject to saturation effects in the respective pathways and negative feedback loops. Motivated by those dynamics, a kinetic model of the network was formulated and used to precisely quantify the relative contributions of PI3K‐dependent and ‐independent modes of Ras/Erk activation. 相似文献

Integrin-mediated signal transduction pathways. 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
Integrins serve as adhesion receptors for extracellular matrix proteins and also transduce biochemical signals into the cell. They regulate a variety of cellular functions, including spreading, migration, proliferation and apoptosis. Many signaling pathways downstream of integrins have been identified and characterized and are discussed here. In particular, integrins regulate many protein tyrosine kinases and phosphatases, such as FAK and Src, to coordinate many of the cell processes mentioned above. The regulation of MAP kinases by integrins is important for cell growth or other functions, and the putative roles of Ras and FAK in these pathways are discussed. Phosphatidylinositol lipids and their modifying enzymes, particularly PI 3-kinase, are strongly implicated as mediators of integrin-regulated cytoskeletal changes and cell migration. Similarly, actin cytoskeleton regulation by the Rho family of GTPases is coordinated with integrin signaling to regulate cell spreading and migration, although the exact relationship between these pathways is not clear. Finally, intracellular pH and calcium fluxes by integrins are suggested to affect a variety of cellular proteins and functions. 相似文献
