Abstract
RhoA activity is transiently inhibited at the initial phase of integrin engagement, when Cdc42- and/or Rac1-mediated membrane spreading and ruffling predominantly occur. Paxillin, an integrin-assembly protein, has four major tyrosine phosphorylation sites, and the phosphorylation of Tyr31 and Tyr118 correlates with cell adhesion and migration. We found that mutation of Tyr31/118 caused enhanced activation of RhoA and premature formation of stress fibers with substantial loss of efficient membrane spreading and ruffling in adhesion and migration of NMuMG cells. These phenotypes were similar to those induced by RhoA(G14V) in parental cells, and could be abolished by expression of RhoA(T19N), Rac1(G12V), or p190RhoGAP in the mutant-expressing cells. Phosphorylated Tyr31/118 was found to bind to two src homology (SH)2 domains of p120RasGAP, with coprecipitation of endogenous paxillin with p120RasGAP. p190RhoGAP is known to be a major intracellular binding partner for the p120RasGAP SH2 domains. We found that Tyr31/118-phosphorylated paxillin competes with p190RhoGAP for binding to p120RasGAP, and provides evidence that p190RhoGAP freed from p120RasGAP efficiently suppresses RhoA activity during cell adhesion. We conclude that Tyr31/118-phosphorylated paxillin serves as a template for the localized suppression of RhoA activity and is necessary for efficient membrane spreading and ruffling in adhesion and migration of NMuMG cells.

Abstract
It is known that the human Ras GTPase activating protein (GAP) p120-GAP can be phosphorylated by different members of the Src kinase family and recently phosphorylation of the GDP/GTP exchange factor (GEF) CDC25Mm/GRF1 by proteins of the Src kinase family has been revealed in vivo [Kiyono, M., Kaziro, Y. & Satoh, T. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275, 5441-5446]. As it still remains unclear how these phosphorylations can influence the Ras pathway we have analyzed the ability of p60c-Src and Lck to phosphorylate these two Ras regulators and have compared the activity of the phosphorylated and unphosphorylated forms. Both kinases were found to phosphorylate full-length or truncated forms of GAP and GEF. The use of the catalytic domain of p60c-Src showed that its SH3/SH2 domains are not required for the interaction and the phosphorylation of both regulators. Remarkably, the phosphorylations by the two kinases were accompanied by different functional effects. The phosphorylation of p120-GAP by p60c-Src inhibited its ability to stimulate the Ha-Ras-GTPase activity, whereas phosphorylation by Lck did not display any effect. A different picture became evident with CDC25Mm; phosphorylation by Lck increased its capacity to stimulate the GDP/GTP exchange on Ha-Ras, whereas its phosphorylation by p60c-Src was ineffective. Our results suggest that phosphorylation by p60c-Src and Lck is a selective process that can modulate the activity of p120-GAP and CDC25Mm towards Ras proteins.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor betas (TGF-betas) are the potent growth inhibitors for various cell types. Certain transformed cells, however, show poor response to TGF-beta-induced growth inhibition, which contributes to their uncontrolled proliferation. Recently, we have reported that TGF-beta1 induces degradation of activated Src tyrosine kinase in rat fibroblasts. To elucidate the alteration in TGF-beta signaling pathway in tumor cells that cannot respond to the cytokine, we compared the effects of TGF-beta1 on Src kinase in two human hepatoma cell lines, TGF-beta1-insensitive Mahlavu cells and TGF-beta1-sensitive HepG2 cells. TGF-beta1 decreased Src kinase activity in HepG2 cells, but increased cellular Src levels and Src kinase activity in Mahlavu cells. Co-incubation of Mahlavu cells with TGF-beta1 and 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) decreased Src protein levels and Src kinase activity, inducing TGF-beta1 sensitivity. TGF-beta1 induced tyrosine dephosphorylation of Ras guanosine triphosphatase-activating protein (Ras-GAP) and Ras inactivation in HepG2 cells, but induced Ras-GAP phosphorylation and Ras activation in Mahlavu cells. The Src kinase inhibitor abolished the increase of Src kinase activity in TGF-beta1-treated Mahlavu cells, and induced TGF-beta1 sensitivity. These findings suggest that regulation of Src kinase by TGF-beta1 is altered in Mahlavu cells. The altered regulation of Src may contribute to TGF-beta1 insensitivity in this cell line, at least in part through activation of Ras.

Abstract
GTPase-activating protein is known to regulate the conversion between ras-GTP and ras-GDP. We studied the basal expression of GTPase-activating protein-like immunoreactivity in mouse cerebral regions using a polyclonal anti-GTPase-activating protein antibody. Cells with GTPase-activating protein-like immunoreactivity were distributed in frontal cortical layers IV and V, and in the parietal cortex, piriform cortex, amygdaloid area, septum, lateral thalamus, and hypothalamus. The GTPase-activating protein-like immunoreactivity was also observed in fiber-like structures in the caudate putamen, stria terminalis, internal capsule, and medial forebrain bundle, and around CA2 pyramidal cells in Ammon's horn. These results imply that GTPase-activating protein is constitutively expressed in mouse brain regions and may have physiological functions in specific neuronal pathways in the brain.

Abstract
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB has been shown previously to increase glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis but not DNA synthesis in freshly isolated fetal lung fibroblasts. In the present study, we found that PDGF-BB also enhanced 35SO4 incorporation into the small, soluble proteoglycan biglycan without affecting biglycan's core protein mRNA expression, suggesting that PDGF-BB mainly affects GAG chain elongation and/or sulfation. PDGF-BB-stimulated GAG synthesis was abrogated by tyrphostin 9, a PDGF receptor-associated tyrosine kinase inhibitor, implying that the stimulatory effect is mediated via the PDGF beta-receptor (PDGFR). The intracellular signal transduction pathways that mediate PDGF-BB-stimulated GAG synthesis in fetal lung fibroblasts were investigated. On ligand-induced tyrosine phosphorylation, PDGFR associated with phospholipase C (PLC)-gamma 1, Ras GTPase activating protein (RasGAP), and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) but not with the Syp-growth factor receptor-bound protein 2-Son of Sevenless complex. Association of PDGFR with PLC-gamma 1 and RasGAP followed by their tyrosine phosphorylation failed, however, to activate PLC-gamma 1, protein kinase C (PKC), and Ras. Neither a PLC-gamma inhibitor, U-73122; a PKC inhibitor, calphostin C; nor a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor, PD-98059, inhibited PDGF-BB-induced GAG synthesis. In contrast, PDGF-BB stimulation triggered PDGFR-associated PI3K activity. Both PDGF-BB-induced PI3K activation and GAG synthesis were abolished by the PI3K inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002. The results suggest that PI3K is a downstream mediator of PDGF-BB-stimulated GAG synthesis in fetal rat lung fibroblasts.

Abstract
We have previously shown that serotonin (5-HT) induces both hyperplasia and hypertrophy of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (SMC) but not of endothelial cells (EC) through its high-affinity uptake. The present studies demonstrate rapid enhancement by 5-HT of Tyr phosphorylation of proteins, including p120, which also occurs in SMC but not in EC. The p120 protein was identified as GTPase-activating protein (GAP) by immunoprecipitation. Its phosphorylation occurred within minutes and preceded other events associated with 5-HT-induced mitogenesis. Tyr kinase (TK) and 5-HT uptake inhibitors and 8-bromoadenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate blocked both the 5-HT-induced DNA synthesis and Tyr phosphorylation of GAP. Vanadate elevated DNA synthesis and Tyr phosphorylation of GAP of both control and 5-HT-treated cells. 5-HT failed to alter Tyr phosphorylation of GAP in cellular homogenates, as opposed to intact cells. In the presence of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, 5-HT inhibited cellular growth, presumably through its action on 5-HT1A or 5-HT4 receptors and elevation of adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, but this was not associated with an alteration of Tyr phosphorylation of GAP. Similarly, a 5-HT1 or 5-HT2 receptor agonist failed to stimulate Tyr phosphorylation or DNA synthesis of SMC. Stimulation of cellular proliferation and enlargement produced by 1 microM 5-HT were totally abolished by TK inhibitors that did not affect 5-HT uptake. These data indicate that Tyr phosphorylation of GAP may act as an intermediate signal in 5-HT-induced mitogenesis of SMC which requires cellular internalization of 5-HT rather than its action on a membrane receptor.

Abstract
T-cell receptor (TCR) triggering by an anti-CD3 antibody or phytohemagglutinin (PHA) as well as the treatment with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), a direct activator of protein kinase C (PKC), induces activation of Ras in T-lymphocytes (Downward, J. et al. (1990)) Nature 364, 719-723). In this paper, we studied the role of Ras in the process of TCR-mediated T-cell activation using a human lymphomic Jurkat cell line. The stimulatory effect of TCR cross-linking on Ras activation was inhibited by herbimycin A, a specific inhibitor of protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), whereas PMA-induced Ras activation was not affected. On the other hand, calphostin C, a specific inhibitor of PKC, blocked not only PMA-induced, but also TCR-mediated formation of Ras.GTP. Furthermore, down-regulation of PMA-sensitive PKC severely impaired the activation of Ras in response to TCR-stimulation. Tyrosine-phosphorylation and translocation to the particulate fraction of phospholipase C-gamma 1 (PLC-gamma 1) were observed upon T-cell activation. Subcellular localization of PKC was also changed when the cells were stimulated with an anti-CD3 antibody or PMA. While TCR-stimulated translocation of PKC was observed only transiently, PMA-induced translocation of PKC was more sustained. These results suggest that the activation of PLC-gamma 1 by PTK and subsequent activation of PKC are important for TCR-mediated Ras activation in Jurkat cells. An activated form of Ras enhanced the activation of interleukin 2 (IL-2) promoter by TCR stimulation or PMA treatment, although the activated Ras by itself was insufficient for IL-2 promoter activation. On the other hand, a dominant-inhibitory Ras diminished almost completely the activation of IL-2 promoter induced by PMA plus calcium ionophore, indicating that Ras is essential for transduction of T-cell activation signals. Cholera toxin (CTX), which directly activates Gs alpha, is shown to inhibit the activation of IL-2 promoter. TCR-mediated Ras activation, tyrosine phosphorylation and translocation of cellular proteins including ZAP-70, PLC-gamma 1 , and PKC. An activated Gs alpha mutant as well as dibutylyl cAMP (dBcAMP) also showed similar inhibitory effects.

Abstract
Polyunsaturated fatty acids enhance the proliferation of mouse mammary epithelial cells stimulated by epidermal growth factor (EGF) by modulating the post-receptor signaling pathways. The growth stimulatory effect of these fatty acids is completely inhibited by pertussis toxin, whereas the inhibition of EGF and insulin stimulated growth is only partial. The treatment of cell cultures with 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13 acetate (TPA) reverses the growth inhibitory effect of pertussis toxin and fully restores the growth as was in the control cultures untreated with the toxin suggesting a role for PKC in this reversal. It appears that the functions of Gi-proteins are required in the mediation of fatty acid effect on growth. The predominant types of Gi alpha in mammary epithelial cells are Gi alpha 1, Gi alpha 2, and Gi alpha 3. Among these, the levels of Gi alpha 1 and 2 appears to be regulated by steroid hormones. Linoleic acid raises the level of GTP-bound Ras in the cells above the levels induced by EGF. Pertussis toxin reduces the level of Ras-GTP and inhibits phosphorylation of MAP kinase by EGF. It has been speculated that Gi-proteins interact with the receptor bound nucleotide exchange factor and the membrane anchored Raf kinase and constitute two sites for pertussis toxin action. The phosphorylation by PKC may uncouple Gi-protein interaction with these effectors and enable the agonist-induced signals to bypass the inhibitory action of PT on growth.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The goal of this study was to determine the role of tyrosine phosphorylation in transducing deformation-stimulated vascular smooth muscle growth. Rat aorta-derived vascular smooth muscle cells were cultured on flexible silicone elastomer membranes and subjected to cyclic deformation (15 cycles per minute, deformed 2 seconds, relaxed 2 seconds). Deformation significantly increased proto-oncogene expression, [3H]thymidine incorporation, [3H]leucine incorporation, and cell number. Time course studies showed an 8-hour lag between initiation of cell deformation and onset of [3H]thymidine incorporation, with peak levels achieved after 18 to 24 hours. Western analysis of protein blots from deformed cells (10 minutes) demonstrated increased levels of phosphotyrosine-containing proteins having molecular weights of 110 to 130 and 70 to 80 kD. Deformation-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation was prevented by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor Herbimycin A. Tyrosine kinase inhibition also prevented deformation-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell growth as measured by [3H]thymidine incorporation. Cyclic deformation stimulates vascular smooth muscle proliferation through activation of tyrosine kinases. Inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation is an effective means of preventing deformation-induced vascular smooth muscle growth in vitro.
