The experiments presented here were designed to examine the contribution of p125 focal adhesion kinase (p125FAK) tyrosine phosphorylation to the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade induced by bombesin, lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in Swiss 3T3 cells. We found that tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK in response to these growth factors is completely abolished in cells treated with cytochalasin D or in cells that were suspended in serum-free medium for 30 min. In marked contrast, the activation of p42mapk by these factors was independent of the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton and of the interaction of the cells with the extracellular matrix. The protein kinase C inhibitor GF 109203X and down-regulation of protein kinase C by prolonged pretreatment of cells with phorbol esters blocked bombesin-stimulated activation of p42mapk, p90rsk, and MAPK kinase-1 but did not prevent bombesin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK. Furthermore, LPA-induced p42mapk activation involved a pertussis toxin-sensitive guanylate nucleotide-binding protein, whereas tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK in response to LPA was not prevented by pretreatment with pertussis toxin. Finally, PDGF induced maximum p42mapk activation at concentrations (30 ng/ml) that failed to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of p125FAK. Thus, our results demonstrate that p42mapk activation in response to bombesin, LPA, and PDGF can be dissociated from p125FAK tyrosine phosphorylation in Swiss 3T3 cells.

Physiological concentrations of growth hormone induced a rapid and transient activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) and S6 kinase in 3T3-F442A preadipocytes. These effects were abrogated by staurosporine and in cells chronically pretreated with phorbol esters, suggesting that protein kinase C is involved in the mechanism of activation. In addition, three cytosolic proteins exhibited a growth-hormone-dependent increase in tyrosine phosphorylation.

The proliferative effects of gastrin on normal and neoplastic gastro-intestinal tissues have been shown to be mediated by the gastrin/CCKB (G/CCKB) G-protein-coupled receptors. We have recently reported that gastrin stimulates the tyrosine phosphorylation of Shc proteins and their subsequent association with the Grb2/Sos complex, leading to mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation, a pathway known to play an important role in cell proliferation. We undertook the present study to characterize the signalling pathways used by this receptor to mediate the activation of the Shc/Grb2 complex. Since G/CCKB receptor occupancy leads to the activation of the phospholipase C (PLC)/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway, we examined whether PKC stimulation and Ca2+ mobilization contribute to the phosphorylation of Shc proteins and their association with Grb2 in response to gastrin. Our results indicate that Shc proteins are tyrosine phosphorylated and associate with Grb2 in response to phorbol esters, suggesting that activation of PKC is a potential signalling pathway leading to activation of the Shc/Grb2 complex. Inhibition of PKC by GF109203X completely blocked the effect of PMA on Shc tyrosine phosphorylation and its subsequent association with Grb2, but had a partial inhibitory effect on the response to gastrin. Depletion of the intracellular Ca2+ pools by treatment with thapsigargin blocked the increase in intracellular free calcium concentration induced by gastrin and diminished the ability of the peptide to stimulate Shc phosphorylation and recruitment of Grb2. In addition, removal of extracellular Ca2+ partially inhibited the effect of gastrin on Shc phosphorylation as well as its association with Grb2, indicating that the effects of gastrin are also mediated by Ca2+-dependent mechanisms. Furthermore, we show that blockage of the two major early signals generated by activation of PLC, which induced the activation of the Shc/Grb2 complex, also blocked gastrin-induced MAPK activation.

The characteristics of protein tyrosine phosphorylation were examined in Rat-1 fibroblasts in response to endothelin-1 (ET-1) and 1-oleoyl-lysophosphatidic acid (LPA). Both agonists stimulated the biphasic tyrosine phosphorylation of at least three major proteins of approx. 120 kDa (pp116, pp120 and pp130) and two of 80 kDa (pp80 and pp70). Immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that the pp120 protein corresponded to the recently described focal adhesion protein kinase pp125fak. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, alone or in combination with the calcium ionophore A23187, also stimulated the phosphorylation of pp125fak but to a smaller extent than LPA or ET-1. Removal of both extracellular and intracellular Ca2+ did not significantly reduce LPA- and ET-1-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125fak. In cells where protein kinase C activity was down-regulated or inhibited, ET-1-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125fak was reduced to a greater extent than phosphorylation in response to LPA. In addition, ET-1-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of pp80 was decreased by 50-70% in response to protein kinase C inhibition at both 2 and 60 min whereas LPA-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of this protein was only reduced at 2 min. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin reduced the tyrosine phosphorylation of pp42 and pp44 forms of mitogen-activated protein kinase in response to both ET-1 and LPA but reduced the tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125fak only in response to LPA. These results indicate agonist-specific differences in the regulation of pathways mediating the tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125fak and other target proteins.

The acetylcholine analogue carbachol rapidly activated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and caused tyrosine phosphorylation of the adapter protein p52 Shc and the epidermalgrowth factor (EGF) receptor, in human embryonic kidney cells stably expressing m3 muscarinic receptors. The protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor GF109203X caused a significant partial inhibition of m3 receptor-mediated activation of MAPK. The PKC-independent MAPK activity elicited by carbachol in the presence of GF109203X was reproducibly abolished by AG1478, an inhibitor of EGF-receptor tyrosine kinase activity, and by the Src tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP1. In a subset of these experiments, GF109203X concomitantly increased carbachol-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of p52 Shc and the EGF receptor. In co-stimulation experiments, carbachol and EGF activated MAPK in a non-additive fashion; moreover, EGF-induced association of Shc with the phosphorylated EGF receptor was inhibited by carbachol. This effect of carbachol was blocked by GF109203X. The results indicate that MAPK activation by m3 receptor stimulation is regulated by two pathways; one dependent on PKC, and the other mediated via the EGF receptor and Src. Moreover, the EGF-receptor-dependent pathway may be subject to negative-feedback regulation via m3 receptor-coupled activation of PKC.

SummaryMicrosomal fractions of Xenopus oocytes release preloaded 45Ca2+ when treated with inositol triphosphate (InsP3). The effective concentration of InsP3 required for half-maximal release (EC50) is 59 nM and maximal release occurs at ∼ 2 μM InsP3. Uptake and release of 45Ca2+ are not altered by the catalytic subunit of protein kinase A, dibutyrl cyclic adenosine monophosphate, protein kinase A peptide inhibitor or nocodazole. In contrast, taxol decreases the sensitivity of the microsomal fraction to InsP3, shifting the EC50 for InsP3-induced Ca2+ release from 59 to 259 nM. In lysates of oocytes, InsP3-induced Ca2+ release causes the tyrosine phorphorylation of a 42000 (Mr 42k) protein identified as 42k mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. InsP3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of MAP kinase is prevented by BAPTA and taxol, but not by nocodazole. Thus, microtubule polymerisation modifies InsP3-induced Ca2+ release, thereby inhibiting phosphorylation of MAP kinase.

In the endothelial cell line EAhy 926, 1-oleoyl-lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) stimulated the tyrosine phosphorylation of the pp42 isoform of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. Maximum phosphorylation was observed within 5 min of LPA addition, but the response was sustained for up to 120 min. Re-addition of LPA after 60 min stimulated a further sustained increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of MAP kinase. In cells pretreated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 24 h) or preincubated with the protein kinase C inhibitor Ro-318220, LPA-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of pp42 MAP kinase was substantially reduced at 2 min but potentiated at 60 min. Ro-318220 in combination with either PMA or pertussis toxin pretreatment abolished the LPA response at all time points, suggesting an involvement of protein kinase C in the pertussis toxin-sensitive part of the pathway. Agents which raised intracellular cyclic AMP levels did not affect the initial phase of LPA-stimulated MAP kinase activation, but abolished the late phase. However, this effect was prevented by Ro-318220, implicating a greater role for protein kinase C than protein kinase A in the regulation of sustained MAP kinase responses. LPA stimulated an increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase pp125 (pp125FAK) in EAhy 926 cells which was both protein kinase C- and pertussis toxin-independent. These results are discussed in terms of the pathways regulating both MAP kinase and pp125FAK in response to LPA in the EAhy 926 endothelial cells line.
