The migration of arterial smooth muscle cells from the media to the intima is a crucial event for the development of the atherosclerotic lesion, and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) is thought to play an important role in this process. Here we report that the spontaneous migration of bovine smooth muscle (BSM) cells is dependent on endogenously produced basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF). PDGF stimulates the migration of BSM cells and its effect is abolished by affinity purified anti-bFGF antibody. PDGF induces bFGF mRNA in BSM cells. These results indicate that the effect of PDGF on the migration of BSM cells may be mediated by the induction of endogenous bFGF. 相似文献

Oligodendrocytes are myelinating cells of the CNS that originate as progenitor cells (OP) in discrete areas of the developing brain. During brain development, OP migrate significant distances prior to proliferating and myelinating the axons of the putative white matter tracts. Growth factors play a major regulatory role in the behavior of OP. Specifically, platelet-derived growth factor A (PDGF-A) and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) are two of the most well characterized regulators of OP development. Both growth factors interact with tyrosine kinase receptors, activating various intracellular signaling pathways. The current study advances our earlier research by comparing the effects of both PDGF-A and FGF2 on OP migration. Our results show that activation of ERK is required for OP migration. These findings correlate well with our previous demonstration of the ERK pathway mediating PDGF-A induced OP migration. We also demonstrate the significance of threshold levels of growth factors and temporal regulation for OP migration. In addition, ERK activation alone is not sufficient to induce OP migration. The current research supports the involvement of the non-ERK mediated signaling pathway in OP migration. 相似文献

Neuronal repellent Slit2 inhibits dendritic cell migration and the development of immune responses 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Guan H Zu G Xie Y Tang H Johnson M Xu X Kevil C Xiong WC Elmets C Rao Y Wu JY Xu H 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2003,171(12):6519-6526
One of the essential functions of dendritic cells is to take up Ags in peripheral tissues and migrate into secondary lymphoid organs to present Ags to lymphocytes for the induction of immune responses. Although many studies have demonstrated that the migration of dendritic cells is closely associated with the development of immune responses, little is known about factors that inhibit dendritic cell migration and control the extent of immune responses to Ag stimulation. We show that Slit2, a neuronal repellent factor, is up-regulated in the skin by allergen sensitization and down-regulates the migration of Langerhans cells. The effect is mediated by direct interaction of Slit2 with cells that express a Slit-specific receptor, Robo1. Slit2-mediated inhibition of Langerhans cell migration results in suppression of contact hypersensitivity responses. These findings provide insights into a novel mechanism by which Slit2 functions as an anti-inflammatory factor for the initiation of immune responses. 相似文献

VEGF is a chemoattractant for FGF-2-stimulated neural progenitors 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Migration of undifferentiated neural progenitors is critical for the development and repair of the nervous system. However, the mechanisms and factors that regulate migration are not well understood. Here, we show that vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A, a major angiogenic factor, guides the directed migration of neural progenitors that do not display antigenic markers for neuron- or glia-restricted precursor cells. We demonstrate that progenitor cells express both VEGF receptor (VEGFR) 1 and VEGFR2, but signaling through VEGFR2 specifically mediates the chemotactic effect of VEGF. The expression of VEGFRs and the chemotaxis of progenitors in response to VEGF require the presence of fibroblast growth factor 2. These results demonstrate that VEGF is an attractive guidance cue for the migration of undifferentiated neural progenitors and offer a mechanistic link between neurogenesis and angiogenesis in the nervous system. 相似文献

Schwann cell migration, including collective migration and chemotaxis, is essential for the formation of coordinate interactions between Schwann cells and axons during peripheral nerve development and regeneration. Moreover, limited migration of Schwann cells imposed a serious obstacle on Schwann cell-astrocytes intermingling and spinal cord repair after Schwann cell transplantation into injured spinal cords. Recent studies have shown that mature brain-derived neurotrophic factor, a member of the neurotrophin family, inhibits Schwann cell migration. The precursor form of brain-derived neurotrophic factor, proBDNF, was expressed in the developing or degenerating peripheral nerves and the injured spinal cords. Since “the yin and yang of neurotrophin action” has been established as a common sense, proBDNF would be expected to promote Schwann cell migration. However, we found, in the present study, that exogenous proBDNF also inhibited in vitro collective migration and chemotaxis of RSC 96 cells, a spontaneously immortalized rat Schwann cell line. Moreover, proBDNF suppressed adhesion and spreading of those cells. At molecular level, proBDNF inhibits F-actin polymerization and focal adhesion dynamics in cultured RSC 96 cells. Therefore, our results suggested a special case against the classical opinion of “the yin and yang of neurotrophin action” and implied that proBDNF might modulate peripheral nerve development or regeneration and spinal cord repair through perturbing native or transplanted Schwann cell migration. 相似文献

Directed cell migration requires the coordination of growth factor and cell adhesion signaling and is of fundamental importance during embryonic development, wound repair, and pathological conditions such as tumor metastasis. Herein, we demonstrate that the ArfGAP, paxillin-kinase-linker (PKL/GIT2), is tyrosine phosphorylated in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulation, in an adhesion dependent manner and is necessary for directed cell migration. Using a combination of pharmacological inhibitors, knockout cells and kinase mutants, FAK, and Src family kinases were shown to mediate PDGF-dependent PKL tyrosine phosphorylation. In fibroblasts, expression of a PKL mutant lacking the principal tyrosine phosphorylation sites resulted in loss of wound-induced cell polarization as well as directional migration. PKL phosphorylation was necessary for PDGF-stimulated PKL binding to the focal adhesion protein paxillin and expression of paxillin or PKL mutants defective in their respective binding motifs recapitulated the polarization defects. RNA interference or expression of phosphorylation mutants of PKL resulted in disregulation of PDGF-stimulated Rac1 and PAK activities, reduction of Cdc42 and Erk signaling, as well as mislocalization of βPIX. Together these studies position PKL as an integral component of growth factor and cell adhesion cross-talk signaling, controlling the development of front–rear cell polarity and directional cell migration. 相似文献

Cell migration is critical for many processes, such as angiogenesis, inflammation, development and wound healing, and is also involved in tumour progression and metastasis. Here we show that CXCL12, complement factor 5a (C5a), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB, which stimulate cell migration, also activate p38alpha MAPK. Pharmacological inhibition of this protein kinase with SB 203580 or BIRB 0796, or the genetic ablation of p38alpha MAPK, blocked cell migration induced by the aforementioned chemo-attractants. Macrophages from mice lacking one or more of the other p38 MAPK isoforms showed normal cell migration in response to C5a. We also show that the activation of p38alpha MAPK in response to CXCL12 requires the p21-activated protein kinases (PAK)-1 and PAK-2. MAPKAP-K2 is a protein kinase that is activated by p38alpha MAPK. Reducing its expression using RNA interference blocked CXCL12-induced HeLa cell migration, while macrophages from mice that do not express MAPKAP-K2 failed to migrate in response to C5a. Moreover, RNA interference against the small heat shock protein 27 (HSP27), a physiological substrate of MAPKAP-K2, blocked the CXCL12-induced cell migration. These results demonstrate a general and essential role of the PAK-p38alpha MAPK-MAPKAP-K2-HSP27 signalling pathway in mediating the effects of chemotactic stimuli on cell migration. 相似文献

The loss of function of the tumor suppressor gene TSC2 and its protein product tuberin promotes the development of benign lesions by stimulating cell growth, although the role of tuberin in regulating cell migration and metastasis has not been characterized. In addition, the role of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI 3-kinase), an important signaling event regulating cell migration, in modulating tuberin-deficient cell motility remains unknown. Using a tuberin-deficient rat smooth muscle cell line, ELT3, we demonstrate that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates cell migration by 3.2-fold, whereas vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha, and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) increase migration by 2.1-, 2.1-, and 2.6-fold, respectively. Basal and PDGF-induced migration in tuberin-deficient ELT3, ELT4, and ERC15 cells was not significantly different from that of tuberin-positive transformed rat kidney epithelial 2, airway smooth muscle, and pulmonary arterial vascular smooth muscle cells. Expression of tuberin in tuberin-deficient ELT3 cells also had little effect on cell migration. In parallel experiments, the role of PI 3-kinase activation in ELT3 cell migration was investigated. LY-294002, a PI 3-kinase inhibitor, decreased PDGF-induced migration in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC(50) of approximately 5 microM. LY-294002 also abrogated ELT3 cell migration stimulated by bFGF and TGF-alpha but not by VEGF and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. Furthermore, transient expression of constitutively active PI 3-kinase (p110*) was sufficient to induce ELT3 cell migration. However, the migration induced by p110* was less than that induced by growth factors, suggesting other signaling pathways are also critically important in modulating growth factor-induced cell migration. These data suggest that PI 3-kinase is required for growth factor-induced cell migration and loss of tuberin appears to have little effect on cell migration. 相似文献

Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) stimulates vascular smooth muscle cell growth and migration in vitro 总被引:26,自引:0,他引:26
Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) was first identified as a 38-kDa cysteine-rich protein which can be specifically induced by TGF-beta and was recently found to be expressed abundantly in atherosclerotic lesions, but only marginally in normal vascular tissues. It was hypothesized that CTGF is one of the factors involved in the development of atherosclerotic lesions. In this study, we investigated the functions of CTGF protein in regulating the growth and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) and found that by overexpressing CTGF in VSMC, proliferation and migration rates were significantly increased. The accelerated growth and migration can be reversed by an anti-CTGF antibody. In addition, overexpression of CTGF also promotes VSMC to express more extracellular matrix protein collagen I and fibronectin. Our results indicate that CTGF is a growth factor for VSMC and it may play a similar role in promoting VSMC proliferation, migration, and formation of extracellular matrix, in vivo. 相似文献

The formation of primitive adipose tissue is the initial process in adipose tissue development followed by the migration of preadipocytes into adipocyte clusters. Comparatively little is known about the molecular mechanism controlling preadipocyte migration. Here, we show that cytohesin-2, the guanine-nucleotide exchange factor for the Arf family GTP-binding proteins, regulates migration of mouse preadipocyte 3T3-L1 cells through Arf6. SecinH3, a specific inhibitor of the cytohesin family, markedly inhibits migration of 3T3-L1 cells. 3T3-L1 cells express cytohesin-2 and cytohesin-3, and knockdown of cytohesin-2 with its small interfering RNA effectively decreases cell migration. Cytohesin-2 preferentially acts upstream of Arf6 in this signaling pathway. Furthermore, we find that the focal adhesion protein paxillin forms a complex with cytohesin-2. Paxillin colocalizes with cytohesin-2 at the leading edges of migrating cells. This interaction is mediated by the LIM2 domain of paxillin and the isolated polybasic region of cytohesin-2. Importantly, migration is inhibited by expression of the constructs containing these regions. These results suggest that cytohesin-2, through a previously unexplored complex formation with paxillin, regulates preadipocyte migration and that paxillin plays a previously unknown role as a scaffold protein of Arf guanine-nucleotide exchange factor. 相似文献

Background
As a global environmental concern, hypoxia is known to be associated with many biological and physiological impairments in aquatic ecosystems. Previous studies have mainly focused on the effect of hypoxia in adult animals. However, the effect of hypoxia and the underlying mechanism of how hypoxia affects embryonic development of aquatic animals remain unclear.Methodology/Principal Findings
In the current study, the effect of hypoxia on primordial germ cell (PGC) migration in zebrafish embryos was investigated. Hypoxic embryos showed PGC migration defect as indicated by the presence of mis-migrated ectopic PGCs. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling is required for embryonic germ line development. Using real-time PCR, we found that the mRNA expression levels of insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP-1), an inhibitor of IGF bioactivity, were significantly increased in hypoxic embryos. Morpholino knockdown of IGFBP-1 rescued the PGC migration defect phenotype in hypoxic embryos, suggesting the role of IGFBP-1 in inducing PGC mis-migration.Conclusions/Significance
This study provides novel evidence that hypoxia disrupts PGC migration during embryonic development in fish. IGF signaling is shown to be one of the possible mechanisms for the causal link between hypoxia and PGC migration. We propose that hypoxia causes PGC migration defect by inhibiting IGF signaling through the induction of IGFBP-1. 相似文献15.

Orchestrated regulation of neuronal migration and morphogenesis is critical for neuronal development and establishment of functional circuits, but its regulatory mechanism is incompletely defined. We established and analyzed mice with neural-specific knock-out of Trio, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor with multiple guanine nucleotide exchange factor domains. Knock-out mice showed defective cerebella and severe signs of ataxia. Mutant cerebella had no granule cells in the internal granule cell layer due to aberrant granule cell migration as well as abnormal neurite growth. Trio-deficient granule cells showed reduced extension of neurites and highly branched and misguided processes with perturbed stabilization of actin and microtubules. Trio deletion caused down-regulation of the activation of Rac1, RhoA, and Cdc42, and mutant granule cells appeared to be unresponsive to neurite growth-promoting molecules such as Netrin-1 and Semaphorin 6A. These results suggest that Trio may be a key signal module for the orchestrated regulation of neuronal migration and morphogenesis during cerebellar development. Trio may serve as a signal integrator decoding extrinsic signals to Rho GTPases for cytoskeleton organization. 相似文献

VEGF189 stimulates endothelial cells proliferation and migration in vitro and up-regulates the expression of Flk-1/KDR mRNA 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Hervé MA Buteau-Lozano H Mourah S Calvo F Perrot-Applanat M 《Experimental cell research》2005,309(1):24-31
The vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a critical factor for development of the vascular system in physiological and pathological angiogenesis. This growth factor exists under at least three isoforms, VEGF120/121, VEGF164/165 and VEGF188/189 which are generated by alternative splicing. VEGF isoforms have different affinities for heparan sulphate as well as for VEGF receptors, and may play distinct roles in vascular development. The role of VEGF189 as an endothelial mitogen, however, remains controversial. VEGF189 is almost entirely bound to the cell surface or extracellular matrix, and is considered active after its cleavage and release from its extracellular binding site. In the present study, we demonstrate that VEGF189 induces endothelial cell proliferation and migration in vitro. The 30-60% increase observed with VEGF189 (10 ng/ml) in HUVEC proliferation was similar to that observed with VEGF165. However, the proliferative effect observed with VEGF189 appeared dependent on the origin of the endothelial cell, since the proliferation was clearly observed with HUVEC but not with BAEC or capillary endothelial cells from dermis (HMEC). The effect of VEGF189 on endothelial cell migration was also analyzed using the wound healing and the Boyden chamber assays. The migration effect was observed with BAEC which do not proliferate with VEGF189, suggesting that different mechanisms are involved in proliferation and migration. In addition, VEGF189 as well as VEGF165 induced a 2-fold increase of Flk-1/KDR expression in HUVEC, the receptor involved in proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. In the Matrigel plug assay in vivo, both VEGF189 and 165 (100 ng/ml) increased the infiltration of endothelial cells. These data suggest that VEGF189 induced endothelial cell migration and proliferation under certain circumstances. 相似文献

Analysis of hypomorphic KitlSl mutants suggests different requirements for KITL in proliferation and migration of mouse primordial germ cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Germ cell development in mice is initiated when a small number of primordial germ cells (PGCs) are set aside from somatic cells during gastrulation. In the subsequent 4 to 5 days, PGCs enter the hindgut, undergo a directed migration away from the hindgut into the developing gonads, and undergo a massive increase in cell number. It is well established that Kit ligand (KITL, also known as stem cell factor and mast cell growth factor) is required for the survival and proliferation of PGCs. However, there is little information on a direct role for KITL in PGC migration. By comparing the effects of multiple Kitl mutations, including two N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea-induced hypomorphic mutations, we were able to distinguish stages of PGC development that are preferentially affected by certain mutations. We provide evidence that the requirements for KITL in proliferation are different in PGCs before and after they start migrating, and different levels of KITL function are required to support PGC proliferation and migration. This study illustrates the usefulness of an allelic series of mutations to dissect developmental processes and suggests that these mutants may be useful for further studies of molecular mechanisms of KITL functions in gametogenesis. 相似文献
