Platelet-derived-growth-factor stimulation of the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway in airway smooth muscle: role of pertussis-toxin-sensitive G-proteins, c-Src tyrosine kinases and phosphoinositide 3-kinase

Abstract: The mechanism used by the platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) to activate the mitogen-activated-proteinkinase (p42\p44 MAPK) pathway was investigated in cultured airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells. We have found that pertussis toxin (PTX, which was used to inactivate the heterotrimeric Gprotein G i ) induced an approx. 40-50 % decrease in the activation of c-Src and p42\p44 MAPK by PDGF. An essential role for c-Src was confirmed using the c-Src inhibitor, PP1, which abolished p42\p44 MAPK activation … Show more

“…The ability of the G i -protein-coupled receptor to regulate Src kinase activity, and subsequent p42/p44 MAPK kinase activation, has been demonstrated in platelet-derived growth factor receptor activation of cultured airway smooth muscle cells (Conway et al 1999). Our study shows that inhibition of Src tyrosine kinase activity prevents the activation of ROS production in LDL-exposed ECs.…”

“…To identify the signaling pathways that mediate g-tocotrienol activity in ASM cells, we examined the p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphoinositide 3 0 -kinase (PI3K) pathways associated with PDGF-BBeinduced cell proliferation and migration [21,22]. Phosphorylation of p42/p44 MAPK and Akt1 peaked 10e20 min after PDGF-BB stimulation; however 25 mM gtocotrienol did not inhibit activation of p42/p44 MAPK and Akt1 significantly ( Fig.…”

“…ASM cells represent a useful model for investigating the mechanisms of co-mitogenic signalling, since pertussis toxin reduces PDGF-stimulated activation of c-Src/p42/p44 MAPK (c-Src is implicated in the regulation of the p42/ p44 MAPK pathway in these cells) by 50 %, thereby suggesting a role for a GPCR-mediated pathway [11]. In the first instance, several new lines of evidence were obtained to support the existence of a functionally active native PDGFβ receptor-S1P 1 receptor complex in ASM cells [12].…”
