Popis: | Elevated focal adhesion kinase (FAK) expression in human tumor cells has been correlated with an increased cell invasion potential. In cell culture, studies with FAK-null fibroblasts have shown that FAK function is required for cell migration. To determine the role of elevated FAK expression in facilitating epidermal growth factor (EGF)-stimulated human adenocarcinoma (A549) cell motility, antisense oligonucleotides were used to reduce FAK protein expression75%. Treatment of A549 cells with FAK antisense (ISIS 15421) but not a mismatched control (ISIS 17636) oligonucleotide resulted in reduced EGF-stimulated p130(Cas)-Src complex formation, c-Jun NH(2)-terminal kinase (JNK) activation, directed cell motility, and serum-stimulated cell invasion through Matrigel. Because residual FAK protein in ISIS 15421-treated A549 cells was highly phosphorylated at the Tyr-397/Src homology (SH)2 binding site, expression of the FAK COOH-terminal domain (FRNK) was also used as an inhibitor of FAK function. Adenoviral-mediated infection and expression of FRNK promoted FAK dephosphorylation at Tyr-397, resulted in reduced EGF-stimulated JNK as well as extracellular-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2) kinase activation, inhibited matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) secretion, and potently blocked both random and EGF-stimulated A549 cell motility. Equivalent expression of a FRNK (S-1034) point-mutant that did not promote FAK dephosphorylation also did not affect EGF-stimulated signaling or cell motility. Dose-dependent reduction in EGF-stimulated A549 motility was observed with the PD98059 MEK1 inhibitor and the batimastat (BB-94) inhibitor of MMP activity, but not with the SB203580 inhibitor of p38 kinase. Finally, comparisons between normal, FAK-null, and FAK-reconstituted fibroblasts revealed that FAK enhanced EGF-stimulated JNK and ERK2 kinase activation that was required for cell motility. These data indicate that FAK functions as an important signaling platform to coordinate EGF-stimulated cell migration in human tumor cells and support a role for inhibitors of FAK expression or activity in the control of neoplastic cell invasion. |
