Abstract Cell migration is a critical process for wound healing, a physiological phenomenon needed for proper skin restoration after injury. Wound healing can be compromised under pathological conditions. Natural bioactive terpenoids have shown promising therapeutic properties in wound healing. Oleanolic acid (OA), a triterpenoid, enhances in vitro and in vivo cell migration. However, the underlying signaling mechanisms and pathways triggered by OA are poorly understood. We have previously shown that OA activates epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and downstream effectors such as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascade and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), leading to c-Jun transcription factor phosphorylation, all of which are involved in migration. We performed protein expression or migration front protein subcellular localization assays, which showed that OA induces c-Jun activation and its nuclear translocation, which precisely overlaps at wound-edge cells. Furthermore, c-Jun phosphorylation was independent of EGFR activation. Additionally, OA promoted actin cytoskeleton and focal adhesion (FA) dynamization. In fact, OA induced the recruitment of regulator proteins to FAs to dynamize these structures during migration. Moreover, OA changed paxillin distribution and activated focal adhesion kinase (FAK) at focal adhesions (FAs). The molecular implications of these observations are discussed. |
