Chemoattractant receptor-stimulated F-actin polymerization in
the human neutrophil is signaled by 2 distinct pathways
David Chodniewicz and
Doncho V. Zhelev
From the Department of Mechanical Engineering and
Materials Science, Duke University, Durham, NC.
We characterized the overall rate of F-actin polymerization
in the pseudopod region by measuring the rate of extension of single
pseudopods stimulated by f-Met-Leu-Phe. The rate of pseudopod extension
was measured in the presence of inhibitors for signaling molecules that
are known to be involved in motility. Our data show the existence of 2 distinct signaling pathways of actin polymerization in the
pseudopod region: a phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K )-dependent and -independent pathway. The PI3K dependent
signaling of F-actin polymerization also depends on protein kinase C
and protein kinase B (Akt/PKB). The PI3K -independent pathway
depends on GTPase RhoA, the RhoA ROCK kinase, Src
family tyrosine kinases, and NADPH, and is modulated by cAMP.
