One of the early events after stimulation of Swiss 3T3 cells with either platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), diacylglycerol, or several other mitogens is the near stoichiometric phosphorylation at tyrosine and serine of a scarce cytoplasmic protein (p42). TPA and diacylglycerol are known to directly stimulate the activity of a protein-serine/threonine kinase, protein kinase C (PKC). PDGF and several other mitogens stimulate tyrosine kinases directly and PKC indirectly. We have therefore examined the involvement of PKC in p42 tyrosine phosphorylation in Swiss 3T3 cells. Firstly, six agents which stimulated phosphorylation of p42 also stimulated phosphorylation of a known PKC substrate, an 80,000-Mr protein (p80). Secondly, in PKC-deficient cells (cells in which PKC activity was reduced to undetectable levels by prolonged exposure to TPA), PDGF-induced p42 phosphorylation was reduced three- to fourfold. Phosphoamino acid analysis of phosphorylated p42 from PDGF-stimulated PKC-deficient cells revealed primarily phosphoserine and only a trace of phosphotyrosine, suggesting that the reduction in PDGF-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of p42 resulting from PKC deficiency is greater than three- to fourfold. Finally, comparison of antiphosphotyrosine immunoprecipitates of PKC-deficient versus naive cells revealed that most other PDGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation events were quite similar. These data suggest that mitogens such as PDGF, which directly stimulate phosphorylation of some proteins at tyrosine, induce p42 tyrosine phosphorylation via a cascade of events involving PKC.

Stimulation Of

Highly purified platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) or recombinant PDGF stimulate DNA synthesis in quiescent Swiss 3T3 cells. The dose-response curves for the natural and recombinant factors were similar, with half-maximal responses at 2-3 ng/ml and maximal responses at approx. 10 ng/ml. Over this dose range, both natural and recombinant PDGF stimulated a pronounced accumulation of [3H]inositol phosphates in cells labelled for 72 h with [3H]inositol. In addition, mitogenic concentrations of PDGF stimulated the release of 45Ca2+ from cells prelabelled with the radioisotope. However, in comparison with the response to the peptide mitogens bombesin and vasopressin, a pronounced lag was evident in both the generation of inositol phosphates and the stimulation of 45Ca2+ efflux in response to PDGF. Furthermore, although the bombesin-stimulated efflux of 45Ca2+ was independent of extracellular Ca2+, the PDGF-stimulated efflux was markedly inhibited by chelation of external Ca2+ by using EGTA. Neither the stimulation of formation of inositol phosphates nor the stimulation of 45Ca2+ efflux in response to PDGF were affected by tumour-promoting phorbol esters such as 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA). In contrast, TPA inhibited phosphoinositide hydrolysis and 45Ca2+ efflux stimulated by either bombesin or vasopressin. Furthermore, whereas formation of inositol phosphates in response to both vasopressin and bombesin was increased in cells in which protein kinase C had been down-modulated by prolonged exposure to phorbol esters, the response to PDGF was decreased in these cells. These results suggest that, in Swiss 3T3 cells, PDGF receptors are coupled to phosphoinositidase activation by a mechanism that does not exhibit protein kinase C-mediated negative-feedback control and which appears to be fundamentally different from the coupling mechanism utilized by the receptors for bombesin and vasopressin.

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.

Stimulation Of

The effect of a number of growth factors on phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) turnover in Swiss-3T3 cells was studied. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), bombesin, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and vasopressin rapidly stimulated PtdCho hydrolysis, diacylglycerol (DAG) production, and PtdCho synthesis. Insulin and prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) stimulated PtdCho synthesis, but not its breakdown, whereas epidermal growth factor (EGF) and bradykinin were without effect. Stimulation of PtdCho hydrolysis by the above ligands resulted in increased production of phosphocholine and DAG (due to phospholipase C activity) and significant amounts of choline, suggesting activation of a phospholipase D as well. CDP-choline and glycerophosphocholine levels were unchanged. Down-regulation of protein kinase C with PMA (400 nM, 40 h) abolished the stimulation of PtdCho hydrolysis and PtdCho synthesis by PMA, bombesin, PDGF and vasopressin, but not the stimulation of PtdCho synthesis by insulin and PGF2 alpha. PtdCho hydrolysis therefore occurs predominantly by activation of protein kinase C (either by PMA or PtdIns hydrolysis) leading to elevation of DAG levels derived from non-PtdIns(4,5)P2 sources. PtdCho synthesis occurs by both a protein kinase C-dependent pathway (stimulated by PMA, PDGF, bombesin and vasopressin) and a protein kinase C-independent pathway (stimulated by insulin and PGF2 alpha). DAG production from PtdCho hydrolysis is not the primary signal to activate protein kinase C, but may contribute to long-term activation of this kinase.

Addition of bombesin to quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells caused a rapid increase in the phosphorylation of an Mr 80,000 cellular protein (designated 80k). The effect was both concentration and time dependent; enhancement in 80k phosphorylation could be detected as early as 10 s after the addition of peptide. Recently, a rapid increase in the phosphorylation of an 80k cellular protein after treatment with phorbol esters or diacylglycerol has been shown to reflect the activation of protein kinase C in intact fibroblasts (Rozengurt, E., A. Rodriguez-Pena, and K. A. Smith, 1983, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA., 80:7244-7248; Rozengurt, E., A. Rodriguez-Pena, M. Coombs, and J. Sinnett-Smith, 1984, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA., 81:5748-5752). The 80k phosphoproteins generated in response to bombesin and to phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate were identical as judged by one- and two-dimensional PAGE and by peptide mapping after partial proteolysis with Staphylococcus aureus V8 protease. In addition, prolonged pretreatment of 3T3 cells with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate, which leads to the disappearance of protein kinase C activity, blocked the ability of bombesin to stimulate 80k. Bombesin also caused a rapid (1 min) inhibition of 125I-labeled epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) binding to Swiss 3T3 cells. The inhibition was both concentration and temperature dependent and resulted from a marked decrease in the affinity of the EGF receptor for its ligand. Peptides structurally related to bombesin, including gastrin-releasing peptide, also stimulated 80k phosphorylation and inhibited 125I-EGF binding; both effects were selectively blocked by a novel bombesin antagonist. These results strongly suggest that these responses are mediated by specific high-affinity receptors that recognize the peptides of the bombesin family in Swiss 3T3 cells. While an increase in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration does not mediate the bombesin inhibition of 125I-EGF binding, the activation of protein kinase C in intact Swiss 3T3 cells by peptides of the bombesin family may lead to rapid inhibition of the binding of 125I-EGF to its cellular receptor.
