Migration of medial smooth muscle cells (SMC) into the intima is important in intimal thickening of atherosclerotic tissues. To study the functions of three isoforms of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in atherosclerosis, we investigated their effects on SMC migration by Boyden's chamber method. Although PDGF-AB and PDGF-BB enhanced SMC migration dose-dependently, PDGF-AA did not enhance SMC migration, but instead inhibited SMC migration induced by PDGF-AB or PDGF-BB. PDGF-AA also inhibited SMC migration induced by two other migration factors, fibronectin and SMC-derived migration factor. PDGF-AA is considered to be coexpressed with transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta 1 in atherosclerotic tissues. Treatment of SMC with TGF-beta 1 reduced an autocrine migration activity from SMC. Studies using anti-PDGF antibody revealed that an increased secretion of PDGF-AA by TGF-beta 1 caused the reduced migration activity. cAMP increase by forskolin and dibutyryl cAMP suppressed SMC migration, whereas cAMP decrease by pertussis toxin had no effects on PDGF-AA-suppressed migration. In contrast, staurosporine, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, enhanced SMC migration and neutralized the inhibitory effect of PDGF-AA. These findings suggest that PDGF-AA regulates SMC migration in intimal thickening in atheroma formation and that protein kinase C may play an important role in the inhibitory mechanism of PDGF-AA.

D010982 Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Mitogenic peptide growth hormone carried in the alpha-granules of platelets. It is released when platelets adhere to traumatized tissues. Connective tissue cells near the traumatized region respond by initiating the process of replication. Platelet Derived Growth Factor,Factor, Platelet-Derived Growth,Growth Factor, Platelet-Derived
D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
