Abstract
The focal adhesion kinase (FAK) protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) links transmembrane integrin receptors to intracellular signaling pathways. We show that expression of the FAK-related PTK, Pyk2, is elevated in fibroblasts isolated from murine fak-/- embryos (FAK-) compared with cells from fak+/+ embryos (FAK+). Pyk2 was localized to perinuclear regions in both FAK+ and FAK- cells. Pyk2 tyrosine phosphorylation was enhanced by fibronectin (FN) stimulation of FAK- but not FAK+ cells. Increased Pyk2 tyrosine phosphorylation paralleled the time-course of Grb2 binding to Shc and activation of ERK2 in FAK- cells. Pyk2 in vitro autophosphorylation activity was not enhanced by FN plating of FAK- cells. However, Pyk2 associated with active Src-family PTKs after FN but not poly-L-lysine replating of the FAK- cells. Overexpression of both wild-type (WT) and kinase-inactive (Ala457), but not the autophosphorylation site mutant (Phe402) Pyk2, enhanced endogenous FN-stimulated c-Src in vitro kinase activity in FAK- cells, but only WT Pyk2 overexpression enhanced FN-stimulated activation of co-transfected ERK2. Interestingly, Pyk2 overexpression only weakly augmented FAK- cell migration to FN whereas transient FAK expression promoted FAK- cell migration to FN efficiently compared with FAK+ cells. Significantly, repression of endogenous Src-family PTK activity by p50(csk) overexpression inhibited FN-stimulated cell spreading, Pyk2 tyrosine phosphorylation, Grb2 binding to Shc, and ERK2 activation in the FAK- but not in FAK+ cells. These studies show that Pyk2 and Src-family PTKs combine to promote FN-stimulated signaling events to ERK2 in the absence of FAK, but that these signaling events are not sufficient to overcome the FAK- cell migration defects.

Abstract
AbstractWiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) and X-linked thrombocytopenia (XLT) are caused by mutations of the WAS protein (WASP) gene. All hematopoietic stem cell-derived lineages, including platelets, express WASP. Platelets from WAS patients are smaller than their normal counterparts and defects in platelet aggregation and actin polymerization have been reported. To determine if WASP is important for normal platelet function, we examined its role in signal transduction. We found that collagen but not thrombopoietin or thrombin induces a rapid and robust increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of platelet-associated WASP. Collagen-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of WASP was inhibited by cytochalasin D and wortmannin, respectively, suggesting that actin polymerization and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) play a role in the induction of tyrosine phosphorylation of WASP. Binding of glutathion S-transferase (GST)-Grb2 to WASP was seen in the lysate of resting platelets. The binding was reduced when lysates from collagen-stimulated platelets were incubated with GST-Grb2, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation of WASP may directly or indirectly modulate the adapter function of WASP. Although thrombin- and thrombopoietin-induced increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of WASP is negligible or marginal, WASP from thrombin-activated platelets became incorporated into the Triton X-100–insoluble 10,000gsedimentable residue in an aggregation-dependent manner, suggesting that it may have a regulatory role in platelet cytoskeletal processes during aggregation. Lastly, we found that WASP is cleaved in response to activation of calpain, a protease that may have a role in postaggregation signaling processes. Our data suggest that collagen specifically induces an increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of WASP and that WASP is involved in signaling during thrombin-induced aggregation by its redistribution to the cytoskeleton and its cleavage during aggregation.© 1998 by The American Society of Hematology.

Abstract
Osteoclast activation is initiated by adhesion to the bone surface, followed by cytoskeletal rearrangement, the formation of the sealing zone, and a polarized ruffled membrane. This study shows that PYK2/CAKbeta/RAFTK, a cytoplasmic kinase related to the focal adhesion kinase, is highly expressed in rat osteoclasts in vivo. Using murine osteoclast-like cells (OCLs) or their mononuclear precursors (pOCs), generated in a coculture of bone marrow and osteoblastic MB1.8 cells, we show: (a) tyrosine phosphorylation of PYK2 upon ligation of beta3 integrins or adhesion of pOCs to serum, vitronectin, osteopontin, or fibronectin but not to laminin or collagen; (b) coimmunoprecipitation of PYK2 and c-Src from OCLs; (c) PYK2 binding to the SH2 domains of Src; (d) marked reduction in tyrosine phosphorylation and kinase activity of PYK2 in OCLs derived from Src (-/-) mice, which do not form actin rings and do not resorb bone; (e) PYK2 phosphorylation by exogeneous c-Src; (f) translocation of PYK2 to the Triton X-100 insoluble cytoskeletal fraction upon adhesion; (g) localization of PYK2 in podosomes and the ring-like structures in OCLs plated on glass and in the sealing zone in OCLs plated on bone; and (h) activation of PYK2, in the presence of MB1.8 cells, parallels the formation of sealing zones and pit resorption in vitro and is reduced by echistatin or calcitonin and cytochalasin D. Taken together, these findings suggest that Src-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of PYK2 is involved in the adhesion-induced formation of the sealing zone, required for osteoclastic bone resorption.

Abstract
AbstractCXCR4 is the receptor for the α-chemokine stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1) and has been shown to be expressed on a diversity of leukocytes. In this report, the expression of the CXCR4 receptor in cells of megakaryocytic lineage and the role of SDF-1 in megakaryocytopoiesis were investigated. Using flow cytometry in combination with reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), we observed that bone marrow CD34+, CD61+ cells, blood platelets, and megakaryocytic leukemia cell lines all expressed the CXCR4 receptor. To examine the expression of the CXCR4 receptor on megakaryocyte progenitors (colony-forming units-megakaryocyte [CFU-Meg]), CXCR4-positive and -negative CD34+ populations were separated from bone marrow and cultured in a plasma clot culture system. A subpopulation of the CFU-Meg was found in the CXCR4-positive fraction. The functional significance of CXCR4 expression on cells of the megakaryocytic lineage was examined by studying the effects of SDF-1α on migration and proliferation of megakaryocyte progenitor cells in vitro. We found that SDF-1α potently induced megakaryocyte progenitor migration and significantly enhanced adhesion of mature marrow megakaryocytes to endothelium. No marked effects of SDF-1α alone or in combination with thrombopoietin and stem cell factor/kit ligand on megakaryocyte production in vitro were noted. These results demonstrate for the first time that the CXCR4 α-chemokine receptor is expressed on cells of the megakaryocytic lineage from progenitors to platelets and that its ligand SDF-1α may modulate several aspects of megakaryocytopoiesis.© 1998 by The American Society of Hematology.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (Ang II) has been previously shown to stimulate the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase family members. Little is known regarding the upstream signaling molecules involved in Ang II-mediated JNK activation. Ang II has been shown to activate the Janus kinase/signal transducer(s) and activator(s) of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway, suggesting similarities to cytokine signaling. In response to cytokines such as interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, the p21-activated kinase (PAK) has been identified as an upstream component in JNK activation. Therefore, we hypothesized that PAK may be involved in JNK activation by Ang II in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). AlphaPAK activity was measured by myelin basic protein phosphorylation in rat aortic VSMCs. In response to Ang II, alphaPAK was rapidly stimulated within 1 minute, with a peak (5-fold increase) at 30 minutes. AlphaPAK stimulation preceded activation of JNK in VSMCs. Ang II-mediated activation of both alphaPAK and JNK was Ca2+ dependent and inhibited by downregulation of phorbol ester-sensitive protein kinase C isoforms (by pretreatment with phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate) but not by pretreatment with GF109203X. Activation of both PAK and JNK was partially inhibited by tyrosine kinase inhibitors but not by specific Src inhibitors, suggesting regulation by a tyrosine kinase other than c-Src. Finally, introduction of dominant negative PAK markedly reduced the JNK activation by Ang II in both Chinese hamster ovary and COS cells stably expressing the Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R). Our data provide evidence for alphaPAK as an upstream mediator of JNK in Ang II signaling and extend the role of Ang II as a proinflammatory mediator for VSMCs.

Abstract
RAFTK, a novel nonreceptor protein kinase, has been shown to be involved in focal adhesion signal transduction pathways in neuronal PC12 cells, megakaryocytes, platelets, and T cells. Because focal adhesions may modulate cytoskeletal functions and thereby alter phagocytosis, cell migration, and adhesion in monocyte-macrophages, we investigated the role of RAFTK signaling in these cells. RAFTK was abundantly expressed in THP1 monocytic cells as well as in primary alveolar and peripheral blood-derived macrophages. Colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1)/macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) stimulation of THP1 cells increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK; similar increases in phosphorylation were also detected after lipopolysaccharide stimulation. RAFTK was phosphorylated with similar kinetics in THP1 cells and peripheral blood-derived macrophages. Immunoprecipitation analysis showed associations between RAFTK and the signaling molecule phosphatidylinositol-3 (PI-3) kinase. PI-3 kinase enzyme activity also coprecipitated with the RAFTK antibody, further confirming this association. The CSF-1/M-CSF receptor c-fms and RAFTK appeared to associate in response to CSF-1/M-CSF treatment of THP1 cells. Inhibition of RAFTK by a dominant-negative kinase mutant reduced CSF-1/M-CSF–induced MAPK activity. These data indicate that RAFTK participates in signal transduction pathways mediated by CSF-1/M-CSF, a cytokine that regulates monocyte-macrophage growth and function.

Abstract
FAK+, an isoform of focal adhesion kinase preferentially expressed in brain and PYK2/Cakbeta (proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2/cell adhesion kinasebeta) are two related cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases. They are candidates for coupling electrical activity and stimulation of neurotransmitter receptors to short and long-term changes in synaptic properties, cytoskeletal organization and gene expression in neurons. As the same set of stimuli appear capable of stimulating FAK and/or PYK2 in non-neuronal cells and in cell lines with neuronal characteristics, we investigated the selectivity of regulation of these two kinases in mature nervous tissue. Using rat hippocampal slices, we compared the regulation of FAK+ and PYK2 by stimuli known to be active on one or the other of these two kinases in other cell types: lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), carbachol, depolarization, and hyperosmolarity. Phosphorylation of FAK+ was markedly increased by carbachol and LPA. Carbachol effects occurred via activation of M1 muscarinic receptors and nicotinic receptors. The effects of carbachol and LPA were prevented by protein kinase C inhibitors, whereas 8-Br-cAMP attenuated the effects of carbachol but not of LPA. Tyrosine phosphorylation of PYK2 but not of FAK+ was very strongly enhanced by depolarization and hyperosmolarity. This study and our previous results show that FAK+ and PYK2 are regulated differentially in hippocampal slices: FAK+ is phosphorylated on tyrosine in response to stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors, whereas PYK2 is mainly sensitive to depolarization and hyperosmolarity. Thus, FAK+ and PYK2 may provide specific and separate links between activation of neurotransmitters receptors, depolarization and tyrosine phosphorylation in mature hippocampus.

Abstract
In GN4 rat liver epithelial cells, angiotensin II (Ang II) produces intracellular calcium and protein kinase C (PKC) signals and stimulates ERK and JNK activity. JNK activation appears to be mediated by a calcium-dependent tyrosine kinase (CADTK). To define the ERK pathway, we established GN4 cells expressing an inhibitory Ras(N17). Induction of Ras(N17) blocked EGF- but not Ang II- or phorbol ester (TPA)-dependent ERK activation. In control cells, Ang II and TPA produced minimal increases in Ras-GTP level and Raf kinase activity. PKC depletion by chronic TPA exposure abolished TPA-dependent ERK activation but failed to diminish the effect of Ang II. In PKC-depleted cells, Ang II increased Ras-GTP level and activated Raf and ERK in a Ras-dependent manner. In PKC depleted cells, Ang II stimulated Shc and Cbl tyrosine phosphorylation, suggesting that without PKC, Ang II activates another tyrosine kinase. PKC-depletion did not alter Ang II-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation or activity of p125(FAK), CADTK, Fyn or Src, but PKC depletion or incubation with GF109203X resulted in Ang II-dependent EGF receptor tyrosine phosphorylation. In PKC-depleted cells, EGF receptor-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors blocked Ang II-dependent EGF receptor and Cbl tyrosine phosphorylation, and ERK activation. In summary, Ang II can activate ERK via two pathways; the latent EGF receptor, Ras-dependent pathway is equipotent to the Ras-independent pathway, but is masked by PKC action. The prominence of this G-protein coupled receptor to EGF receptor pathway may vary between cell types depending upon modifiers such as PKC.

Abstract
Thrombin elicits responses in platelets such as shape change, aggregation, arachidonate liberation and secretion of the contents of three storage granules, processes that coincide with serine/threonine and tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous proteins, hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides and mobilisation of Ca2+ within the cell. However, the significance of these parallel signal transduction processes has not been clearly elucidated in the light of the prevalent autocrine stimulation in platelets: a great amplification of the thrombin signal through secreted ADP, by production of thromboxane A2 from the liberated arachidonic acid, by the close cell contact produced by aggregation caused by exposure of integrin receptors that become ligated by fibrinogen and other platelet-produced factors. In the present communication five pathways of autocrine stimulation have been prevented by appropriate inhibitors. Under these conditions thrombin stimulated platelet secretion with little tyrosine phosphorylation, except for a 125-130 kDa protein that was tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to one of the inhibitors, the peptide Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS) used to block aggregation. In sharp contrast, collagen elicits massive tyrosine phosphorylation and platelet secretion in the absence of autocrine stimulation. When the thrombin-induced tyrosine phosphorylations was corrected for RGDS-induced phosphorylation, the presence of inhibitors of autocrine stimulation reduced the thrombin-induced phosphorylation by 97%. Our results strongly suggests that tyrosine phosphorylation is not part of the signal transduction pathway initiated by thrombin per se, but it represents an integral part of signal transduction initiated by collagen.

Abstract
Pyk2 is a recently described cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase that is related to focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and can be activated by a variety of stimuli that elevate intracellular calcium. In this report, we showed that Pyk2 and FAK tyrosine phosphorylation are regulated differentially by integrin-mediated cell adhesion and soluble factors both in rat aortic smooth muscle cells, which express endogenous Pyk2 and FAK, and in transfected Chinese hamster ovary cells. We also found that Pyk2 is diffusely present throughout the cytoplasm, while FAK is localized in focal contacts as expected, suggesting that the different localization may account for their differential regulation. By analyzing a chimeric protein contain N-terminal and kinase domains of Pyk2 and C-terminal domain of FAK, we provided evidence that the distinctive C-terminal domains of Pyk2 and FAK were responsible for their differential regulation by integrins and soluble stimuli as well as their subcellular localization. Finally, we correlated FAK, Pyk2, and the chimeric protein binding to talin, but not paxillin, with their regulation by integrins and focal contact localization. These results demonstrate that the distinctive C-terminal domain of Pyk2 and FAK confer their differential regulation by different subcellular localization and association with the cytoskeletal protein talin.

Abstract
A novel, p125FAK homologue, CADTK, has been detected in neural, epithelial, or hematopoietic cells but not in fibroblasts. We now demonstrate CADTK expression in a mesenchymal cell, rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RSMC). Angiotensin II (Ang II) or platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB and PDGF-AA) markedly stimulated CADTK tyrosine phosphorylation in RSMC but did not affect p125FAK phosphorylation. The PDGF-depedent CADTK tyrosine phosphorylation was slower and more prolonged than that of Ang II, correlating well with the differential effects of these agonists on cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i) signaling. An intracellular calcium chelator inhibited both the rapid and sustained activation of CADTK by Ang II and PDGF. Extracellular calcium chelation inhibited the PDGF-stimulated increase in CADTK tyrosine phosphorylation as well as the sustained (but not the early) activation by Ang II. In contrast, p125FAK tyrosine phosphorylation was maximal in quiescent, adherent RSMC and was not affected by incubation with EGTA. Depletion of protein kinase C activity partially inhibited both the Ang II- and PDGF-induced CADTK tyrosine phosphorylation. Additional results confirm a relation between CADTK and the cytoskeleton. First, the tyrosine phosphorylation of paxilin correlated with activation of CADTK; this increase was inhibited by EGTA. Second, cytochalasin D blocked the PDGF- or Ang II-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of CADTK, suggesting a role for the cytoskeleton in agonist-dependent CADTK activation. Third, immunofluorescence analysis of CADTK localization demonstrated actin-like cytoskeleton staining extending into focal contacts. These results suggest that in mesenchymal cells, CADTK is localized to and activated by an actin cytoskeleton-dependent mechanism; a mechanism that is regulated in a calcium and protein kinase C-dependent manner independently of p125FAK.

Abstract
Aggregation of the FcepsilonRI, a member of the immune receptor family, induces the activation of proteintyrosine kinases and results in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins that are involved in downstream signaling pathways. Here we report that Pyk2, another member of the focal adhesion kinase family, was present in the RBL-2H3 mast cell line and was rapidly tyrosine-phosphorylated and activated after FcepsilonRI aggregation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was also induced by the calcium ionophore A23187, by phorbol myristate acetate, or by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors. Adherence of cells to fibronectin dramatically enhanced the induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. Although Src family kinases are activated by FcepsilonRI stimulation and tyrosine-phosphorylate the receptor subunits, the activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 were downstream of Syk. In contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors was independent of Syk. Therefore, the FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 is downstream of Syk and may play a role in cell secretion.
