Addition of insulin growth factor-I (IGF-I) to quiescent Swiss 3T3 cells rapidly induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the p130Crk-associated substrate (p130(Cas)), a novel adaptor protein localized at focal adhesions. Half-maximal effect was obtained at 0. 6 nM. IGF-I also promoted the formation of a complex between p130(Cas) and c-Crk and elicited a parallel increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of p125(Fak) and paxillin. IGF-I-induced p130(Cas), p125(Fak), and paxillin tyrosine phosphorylation could be dissociated from mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase, p70(S6K), and protein kinase C activation. In contrast, the structurally unrelated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 markedly attenuated the increase in tyrosine phosphorylation of p130(Cas), p125(Fak), and paxillin induced by IGF-I. Cytochalasin D, which disrupts the network of actin microfilaments, completely prevented tyrosine phosphorylation of p130(Cas), p125(Fak), and paxillin and the formation of a p130(Cas). Crk complex in response to IGF-I. Thus, our results identified a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-dependent pathway that requires the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of p130(Cas), p125(Fak), and paxillin in response to IGF-I and suggest that tyrosine phosphorylation of these focal adhesion proteins, together with the recruitment of c-Crk into a complex with p130(Cas), may play a novel role in IGF-I signal transduction.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007334 Insulin-Like Growth Factor I A well-characterized basic peptide believed to be secreted by the liver and to circulate in the blood. It has growth-regulating, insulin-like, and mitogenic activities. This growth factor has a major, but not absolute, dependence on GROWTH HORMONE. It is believed to be mainly active in adults in contrast to INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR II, which is a major fetal growth factor.

D010766 Phosphorylation The introduction of a phosphoryl group into a compound through the formation of an ester bond between the compound and a phosphorus moiety. Phosphorylations
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.
