Abstract: | Polyaminesare essential for early mucosal restitution that occurs by epithelialcell migration to reseal superficial wounds after injury. Normalintestinal epithelial cells are tightly bound in sheets, but they needto be rapidly disassembled during restitution. -Catenin is involvedin cell-cell adhesion, and its tyrosine phosphorylation causesdisassembly of adhesion junctions, enhancing the spreading of cells.The current study determined whether polyamines are required for thestimulation of epithelial cell migration by altering -catenintyrosine phosphorylation. Migration of intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6 line) after wounding was associated with an increase in-catenin tyrosine phosphorylation, which decreased the bindingactivity of -catenin to -catenin. Polyamine depletion by-difluoromethylornithine reduced cytoplasmic free Ca2+concentration ([Ca2+]cyt), preventedinduction of -catenin phosphorylation, and decreased cell migration.Elevation of [Ca2+]cyt induced by theCa2+ ionophore ionomycin restored -cateninphosphorylation and promoted migration in polyamine-deficient cells.Decreased -catenin phosphorylation through the tyrosine kinaseinhibitor herbimycin-A or genistein blocked cell migration, which wasaccompanied by reorganization of cytoskeletal proteins. These resultsindicate that -catenin tyrosine phosphorylation plays a criticalrole in polyamine-dependent cell migration and that polyamines induce-catenin tyrosine phosphorylation at least partially through[Ca2+]cyt. |
