HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY

Oncostatin M promotes biphasic tissue factor expression in smooth muscle cells: evidence for Erk-1/2 activation

Tissue factor (TF), a transmembrane glycoprotein, initiates the extrinsic coagulation cascade. TF is known to play a major role in mediating thrombosis and thrombotic episodes associated with the progression of atherosclerosis. Macrophages at inflammatory sites, such as atherosclerotic lesions, release numerous cytokines that are capable of modulating TF expression. This study examined the role of oncostatin M (OSM), a macrophage/ T-lymphocyte-restricted cytokine, in the expression of TF in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs). It is reported here that OSM stimulated a biphasic and sustained pattern of TF messenger RNA (mRNA). The effect of OSM on TF mRNA expression was regulated at the transcriptional level as determined by nuclear run-offs and transient transfection of a TF promoter-reporter gene construct. OSM-induced TF expression was regulated primarily by the transcription factor NF-kappa B. Activation of NF-kappa B by OSM did not require Ikappa B-alpha degradation. Inhibition of MEK activity by U0126 prevented OSM-induced TF expression by suppressing NF-kappa B DNA binding activity as determined by gel-shift analysis. Further, inhibition of Erk-1/2 protein by antisense treatment resulted in suppression of TF mRNA expression, indicating a role for Erk-1/2 in modulating NF-kappa B DNA binding activity. These studies suggest that the induced expression of TF by OSM is primarily through the activation of NF-kappa B and that activation of NF-kappa B is regulated in part by the MEK/Erk-1/2 signal transduction pathway. This study indicates that OSM may play a key role in promoting TF expression in SMCs within atherosclerotic lesions.
