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.

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.

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.

Stimulation Of

Both bombesin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) are potent mitogens in Swiss 3T3 cells that nonetheless have dissimilar receptor structures. To explore possible common intracellular events involved in the stimulation of cellular growth by these two peptides, we have evaluated the regulation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase. Exposure of Swiss 3T3 cells to bombesin, EGF or the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) causes the rapid and transient stimulation of the enzyme activity. Pretreatment of cells with the protein kinase inhibitor H-7, or down-regulation of cellular protein kinase C by prolonged exposure to PMA, causes a decrease of over 90% in the activation of MAP kinase by bombesin. In contrast, these treatments have no effect on the stimulation of MAP kinase by EGF. The stimulation of MAP kinase activity by bombesin is dose-dependent, occurring over a narrow concentration range of the peptide. Both EGF and bombesin stimulate the phosphorylation of an immunoprecipitable MAP kinase protein migrating at 42 kDa on SDS/PAGE. Phosphoamino acid analysis of this phosphorylated protein reveals that EGF and bombesin stimulate phosphorylation on tyrosine, threonine and serine residues. Tyrosine phosphorylation of the enzyme, as evaluated by antiphosphotyrosine blotting of the immunoprecipitated protein, reveals that the time course of phosphorylation by both mitogens correlates with stimulation of enzyme activity. These results provide further evidence for the convergence of discrete pathways emanating from tyrosine kinase and G-protein-linked receptors in the regulation of MAP kinase.

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.
