Hic-5 and paxillin, members of the LIM protein family, have been shown to be localized in focal adhesion and to have a role in integrin-mediated signalling. In the present study we examined the involvement of Hic-5 in human platelet activation: platelets express Hic-5 but not paxillin, whereas human umbilical-vein vascular endothelial cells and MEG-01 cells express mainly paxillin. When platelets were stimulated with thrombin, collagen or the stable thromboxane A2 analogue U46619, Hic-5 was markedly tyrosine-phosphorylated, in a manner dependent on integrin αIIbβ3-mediated aggregation. In addition, direct activation of protein kinase C with PMA resulted in tyrosine phosphorylation of Hic-5 only when platelets were fully aggregated with the exogenous addition of fibrinogen. Furthermore, PMA-induced Hic-5 tyrosine phosphorylation was also observed when platelets adhered to immobilized fibrinogen. In studies on immunoprecipitation and immunodepletion, Hic-5 seemed to associate with proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) but only marginally with focal adhesion kinase. When platelets were stimulated with thrombin, both Hic-5 and Pyk2 translocated to the cytoskeleton from the cytosol and membrane fractions in a manner dependent on αIIbβ3-mediated aggregation. Finally, on stimulation with PMA, Hic-5, as well as Pyk2, translocated to the cell periphery, where a meshwork of actin filaments assembled after adhesion to immobilized fibrinogen. Our results suggest that Hic-5 might be important in platelet aggregation and adhesion, in a manner dependent on αIIbβ3-mediated outside-in signalling, through association with Pyk2.

Dose Dependent

Diperoxovanadate (DPV), a potent tyrosine kinase activator and protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor, was utilized to explore bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cell barrier regulation. DPV produced dose-dependent decreases in transendothelial electrical resistance (TER) and increases in permeability to albumin, which were preceded by brief increases in TER (peak TER effect at 10–15 min). The significant and sustained DPV-mediated TER reductions were primarily the result of decreased intercellular resistance, rather than decreased resistance between the cell and the extracellular matrix, and were reduced by pretreatment with the tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein but not by inhibition of p42/p44 mitogen-activating protein kinases. Immunofluorescent analysis after DPV challenge revealed dramatic F-actin polymerization and stress-fiber assembly and increased colocalization of tyrosine phosphoproteins with F-actin in a circumferential pattern at the cell periphery, changes that were abolished by genistein. The phosphorylation of focal adhesion and adherens junction proteins on tyrosine residues was confirmed in immunoprecipitates of focal adhesion kinase and cadherin-associated proteins in which dramatic dose-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation was observed after DPV stimulation. We speculate that DPV enhances endothelial cell monolayer integrity via focal adhesion plaque phosphorylation and produces subsequent monolayer destabilization of adherens junctions initiated by adherens junction protein tyrosine phosphorylation catalyzed by p60 src or Src-related tyrosine kinases.

SummaryStimulation of human platelets with von Willebrand factor (vWF) induces the rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, but very little is known on the tyrosine kinases involved in this process. In the present work, we investigated and compared the activation of two related tyrosine kinases expressed in platelets: the proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) and the focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Both kinases were tyrosine phosphorylated upon vWF interaction with glycoprotein Ib-IX-V complex, but with different mechanisms. Tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK was totally dependent on thromboxane A2 production, and was inhibited by the integrin αIIbβ3 antagonist RGDS peptide. Moreover, chelation of intracellular calcium or inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) totally blocked vWF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK, indicating that this event is downstream phospholipase A2 and phospholipase C activation. By contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was only partially reduced by aspirin and RGDS, and was not affected by either calcium chelation or PKC inhibition, suggesting that activation of this kinase does not require phospholipase-mediated signalling. Both FAK and Pyk2 translocated to the cytoskeleton upon vWF stimulation of human platelets by a mechanism depending on agonist-induced actin polymerisation. Prevention of cytoskeletal relocation of Pyk2 and FAK by cytochalasin D totally blocked vWFinduced tyrosine phosphorylation of both kinases. Finally, phosphorylation of Pyk2 induced by vWF, but not by thrombin, was inhibited by piceatannol, suggesting that this kinase lies downstream Syk. These results demonstrate that both Pyk2 and FAK are involved in platelet stimulation by vWF, but indicate that only Pyk2 may play a role in the early signal transduction events activated by ligand binding to glycoprotein Ib-IX-V.

AbstractHepatic fibrogenesis is characterized by activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) and accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM). The impact of ECM on TGF-β-mediated fibrogenic signaling pathway in HSCs has remained obscure. We studied the role of non-receptor tyrosine kinase focal adhesion kinase (FAK) family members in TGF-β-signaling in HSCs. We used a CCl4-induced liver fibrosis mice model to evaluate the effect of FAK family kinase inhibitors on liver fibrosis. RT-PCR and Western blot were used to measure the expression of its target genes; α-SMA, collagen, Nox4, TGF-β1, Smad7, and CTGF. Pharmacological inhibitors, siRNA-mediated knock-down, and plasmid-based overexpression were adopted to modulate the function and the expression level of proteins. Association of PYK2 activation with liver fibrosis was confirmed in liver samples from CCl4-treated mice and patients with significant fibrosis or cirrhosis. TGF-β treatment up-regulated expression of α-SMA, type I collagen, NOX4, CTGF, TGF-β1, and Smad7 in LX-2 cells. Inhibition of FAK family members suppressed TGF-β-mediated fibrogenic signaling. SiRNA experiments demonstrated that TGF-β1 and Smad7 were upregulated via Smad-dependent pathway through FAK activation. In addition, CTGF induction was Smad-independent and PYK2-dependent. Furthermore, RhoA activation was essential for TGF-β-mediated CTGF induction, evidenced by using ROCK inhibitor and dominant negative RhoA expression. We identified that TGF-β1-induced activation of PYK2-Src-RhoA triad leads to YAP/TAZ activation for CTGF induction in liver fibrosis. These findings provide new insights into the role of focal adhesion molecules in liver fibrogenesis, and targeting PYK2 may be an attractive target for developing novel therapeutic strategies for the treatment of liver fibrosis.

Integrins play a central role in cellular adhesion and anchorage of the cytoskeleton and participate in the generation of intracellular signals, including tyrosine phosphorylation. We have recently isolated a cDNA encoding a unique, focal adhesion-associated protein tyrosine kinase (FAK) that is a component of an integrin-mediated signal transduction pathway. Here we report the isolation of cDNAs encoding the C-terminal, noncatalytic domain of the FAK kinase, termed FRNK (FAK-related nonkinase). Both the FAK- and FRNK-encoded polypeptides, pp125FAK and p41/p43FRNK, are expressed in normal chicken embryo cells. pp125FAK and p41/p43FRNK were localized to focal adhesions, suggesting that pp125FAK is directed to the focal adhesions by sequences within its C-terminal domain. We also show that the fibronectin-dependent increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125FAK is accompanied by a concomitant posttranslational modification of p41FRNK.

Αiibβ3 Integrin

Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) (also known as RAFTK, CAKβ or CADTK) has been identified as a member of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) family of protein-tyrosine kinases and it has been suggested that the mode of Pyk2 activation is distinct from that of FAK. In the present study we investigated the mode of Pyk2 activation in human platelets. When platelets were stimulated with thrombin, Pyk2, as well as FAK, was markedly tyrosine-phosphorylated, in a manner mostly dependent on αIIbβ3 integrin-mediated aggregation. The residual Pyk2 tyrosine phosphorylation observed in the absence of platelet aggregation was completely abolished by pretreatment with BAPTA/AM [bis-(o-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,Nʹ,Nʹ-tetra-acetic acid acetoxymethyl ester]. The Pyk2 phosphorylation was inhibited by protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors at concentrations that inhibited platelet aggregation. In contrast, direct activation of PKC with the active phorbol ester PMA induced the tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 and FAK but only when platelets were fully aggregated with the exogenous addition of fibrinogen (the ligand for αIIbβ3 integrin). Furthermore, PMA-induced Pyk2 (and FAK) tyrosine phosphorylation was also observed when platelets adhered to immobilized fibrinogen. The activation of the von Willebrand factor (vWF)--glycoprotein Ib pathway with botrocetin together with vWF failed to induce Pyk2 (and FAK) tyrosine phosphorylation. Most Pyk2 and FAK was present in the cytosol and membrane skeleton fractions in unstimulated platelets. When platelets were stimulated with thrombin, both Pyk2 and FAK were translocated to the cytoskeleton in an aggregation-dependent manner. In immunoprecipitation studies, Pyk2, as well as FAK, seemed to associate with Shc through Grb2. With the use of glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins containing Shc-SH2, Grb2-SH2, and Grb2 N-terminal and C-terminal SH3 domains, it was implied that the proline-rich region of Pyk2 (and FAK) binds to the N-terminal SH3 domain of Grb2 and that the phosphotyrosine residue of Shc binds to the SH2 domain of Grb2. Although Pyk2 and FAK have been reported to be differentially regulated in many cell types, our results suggest that, in human platelets, the mode of Pyk2 activation is mostly similar to that of FAK, in terms of αIIbβ3 integrin-dependent and PKC-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation. Furthermore, Pyk2, as well as FAK, might have one or more important roles in post-aggregation tyrosine phosphorylation events, in association with the cytoskeleton and through interaction with adapter proteins including Grb2 and Shc.

Stimulation Of

The interaction of cells with components of the extracellular matrix through their integrin receptors results in the stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, suggesting that these receptors play a key role in signal transduction. Here we report that antibody-mediated ligation and clustering of alpha 3 beta 1 and alpha 6 beta 1/alpha 6 beta 4 integrins resulted in the stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins that are specific for each heterodimer. Thus, ligation and clustering of the alpha 3 beta 1 integrin on human prostate carcinoma cells (PC-3) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with anti-alpha 3 antibodies resulted in the stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of a 55 kDa protein. In contrast, ligation and clustering of the alpha 6 beta 1 integrin on these cells with anti-alpha 6 antibody resulted in the dramatic stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of a 90 kDa protein in addition to a 52 kDa protein, and ligation and clustering of alpha 5 beta 1 on HUVEC did not result in the apparent stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of any proteins. Clustering with anti-beta 1 antibodies triggered the tyrosine phosphorylation of all of these proteins, whereas ligation and clustering of PC-3 cells with an anti-beta 4 antibody resulted in the tyrosine phosphorylation of a distinct 62 kDa protein. Since the PC-3 cells express both alpha 6 beta 1 and alpha 6 beta 4, these data suggest that these two receptors can transduce distinct signals. All of the phosphorylations could be inhibited by treating the cells with Genistein, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Antibody-mediated ligation and clustering of integrins on the two types of cells did not result in the stimulation of tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125 focal adhesion kinase, although this was observed upon cell attachment and spreading on fibronectin, laminin and anti-alpha 3 monoclonal antibody. Collectively, these data demonstrate that cross-linking of different integrin heterodimers can stimulate tyrosine kinase activities, leading to the phosphorylation of distinct proteins, which are also different from those observed when cells are allowed to spread on a matrix.
