Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a major
chemoattractant for monocytes and T lymphocytes. The MonoMac6 cell line was used to examine MCP-1 receptor-mediated signal transduction events
in relation to MCP-1-mediated monocytic transendothelial migration.
MCP-1 stimulates, with distinct time courses, extracellular signal-related kinases (ERK1 and ERK2) and stress-activated protein kinases (SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38). SAPK1/JNK1 activation was blocked
by piceatannol, indicating that it is regulated by Syk kinase, whereas
SAPK2/p38 activation was inhibited by PP2, revealing an upstream
regulation by Src-like kinases. In contrast, ERK activation was
insensitive to PP2 and piceatannol. Pertussis toxin, a blocker of Go/Gi
proteins, abrogated MCP-1-induced ERK activation, but was without any
effect on SAPK1/JNK1 and SAPK2/p38 activation. These results underscore
the major implication of Go/Gi proteins and nonreceptor tyrosine
kinases in the early MCP-1 signaling. Furthermore, MCP-1-mediated
chemotaxis and transendothelial migration were significantly diminished
by a high concentration of SB202190, a broad SAPK inhibitor, or by
SB203580, a specific inhibitor of SAPK2/p38, and abolished by pertussis
toxin treatment. Altogether, these data suggest that coordinated action
of distinct signal pathways is required to produce a full response to
MCP-1 in terms of monocytic locomotion.
(Blood. 2001;97:359-366) Leukocyte migration toward inflammatory or injured
tissues is a multistep process mediated by a series of sequential
cellular interactions in which the generation of chemotactic gradients plays a key role. A superfamily of chemotactic polypeptides, known as
chemokines, selectively induces endothelial cell adhesion and transmigration of leukocyte subsets. Chemokines are structurally related proteins characterized by the presence, on their primary amino
acid sequence, of 4 conserved cysteines. Chemokines are grouped into 4 families as designated CXC, CC, C, and CX3C, depending on the number
and spacing of the first 2 conserved cysteines.1-5
Schematically, CXC (or Monocyte chemoattacant protein-1 (MCP-1) was the first CC chemokine
identified, from culture supernatants of human malignant tumor cell
lines, as a tumor-derived chemotactic factor with the characteristic
properties of inducing migration of monocytes.9 MCP-1 was
predominantly expressed in tumor epithelial areas and correlated with
the number of infiltrate macrophages.10-12 Many other
activities have been assigned to MCP-1, including induction of
migration of memory/activated T cells13 and NK
cells14 and activation of mast cells.15 MCP-1
mediates its cellular effects primarily through its binding to
CCR2,16 which exists in A and B forms that arise via
alternative splicing of the carboxyl-terminal tail.17
Analysis of the signal transduction pathways triggered by MCP-1 has
revealed that it induces a pertussis toxin (PTX)-sensitive rise of
intracellular calcium,18,19 inhibition of adenyl
cyclase,19 phospholipase C activation,20
activation of extracellular signal-related kinases
(ERKs),21 stimulation of 2 separate PI 3-kinase isoforms, namely p85/p110 PI3-kinase (PI3-K) and PI3K-C2 In this study, we report on the activation of different
mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in a human monocytic cell line, MonoMac6, by the CC chemokine MCP-1. We show that although ERK
activation is swift and transient, the activation of the 2 stress-activated protein kinases (SAPKs), JNK1 and P38, is delayed and
more sustained. Specific inhibitors of these serine/threonine kinases
have been used to study their implication in the chemotactic process on
acellular filters as well as during the transendothelial migration of
MonoMac6 induced by MCP-1.

Products
Cell stimulation and lysis MonoMac6 cells (106 cells/mL) were starved 16 hours in RPMI 1640 medium and harvested by centrifugation for 5 minutes at 1000g before being resuspended in RPMI at a concentration of 2 × 107 cells/mL. Cells (5 × 106) were treated at 37°C with or without the effectors for the indicated times and lysed 30 minutes at 4°C in a buffer containing 150 mM NaCl, 0.8 mM MgCl2, 5 mM EGTA, 1% NP-40, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF), 15 µg/mL leupeptin, 1 µM pepstatine and 1 mM Na3VO4, and 50 mmol/L Hepes at pH 7.5. The crude lysates were centrifuged at 18 000g for 10 minutes at 4°C, the supernatants (lysates) were removed, and the protein concentration was assayed using the Bradford method (Biorad, Hercules, CA).Immune-complex kinase assays JNK1 activity.
The lysates were precleared with rabbit nonimmune serum prebound
to protein A-Sepharose (Pharmacia-LKB Biotechnologies, Uppsala, Sweden) and JNK1 kinase was immunoprecipitated from precleared lysates by incubation at 4°C for 16 hours with 1 µg polyclonal anti-JNK1 antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Santa Cruz, CA) bound
to protein A-Sepharose. Immnopellets were washed twice with lysis
buffer and twice with MAPK buffer (30 mM NaCl, 0.1% NP-40, 10%
glycerol, 200 µM Na3VO4, 30 mM Hepes at pH
7.5) before being resuspended in 50 µL MAPK buffer containing 30 mM
Mg-acetate in the presence of 0.5 mg/mL GST-ATF2, which was used as
exogenous substrate. The kinase assay was initiated by addition of 25 µM ATP and 20 µCi/mL Src kinase activity.
Precleared lysates were incubated at 4°C for 4 hours with 2 µg
polyclonal anti-c-Src antibodies (Argène Biosof, Varilhes, France) followed by the addition of protein A/G Sepharose (Santa Cruz
Biotechnology), and then incubated for an additional hour at 4°C. The
immunopellets were washed twice with lysis buffer and twice with
tyrosine kinase buffer (10 mM MnCl2, 20 mM Hepes at pH
7.5). Samples were then resuspended in 50 µL tyrosine kinase buffer
supplemented with 1 mM DTT and 0.1 mg/mL acid-denatured enolase, which
was used as an exogenous substrate. The kinase assay was started by
addition of 3.75 µM ATP and 20 µCi/mL Syk activity. Syk kinases were immunoprecipitated from precleared lysates by incubation at 4°C for 3 hours with polyclonal anti-Syk antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) bound to protein A-Sepharose. Immunopellets were washed twice with lysis buffer, twice with lysis buffer supplemented with 0.25% sodium deoxycholate, and resuspended in 50 µL 3 × Laemmli sample buffer. Proteins resolved by SDS-PAGE were electrophoretically transferred to Immobilon-P-membrane and tyrosine phosphorylated Syk kinases were detected using 4G10 monoclonal antiphosphotyrosine antibodies (Upstate Biotechnology, Lake Placid, NY). The amount of immunoprecipitated ERKs, JNK, and Syk was evaluated on Western blots using specific antibodies revealed by chemiluminescence using Enhanced ChemiLuminescence (ECL) kit (Amersham, Arlington Heights, IL) and hyperfilms MP (Amersham).ERKs and p38 MAPK activities. Cell lysates (100 µg) were boiled after addition of 9 × Laemmli sample buffer prior to being separated by 12% SDS-PAGE and transferred onto Immobilon-P membranes (Millipore) as detailed previously.25 The immunoblots were incubated overnight at 4°C with rabbit polyclonal antiactive ERK antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) or antiactive p38 antibodies (Promega, Madison, WI). After 3 washes with buffer (10 mM Tris at pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% NP-40), the antibody binding was detected using horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated goat antirabbit (GAR) antibodies (Dako, Botany, Australia) and ECL system with autoradiography hyperfilms MP. The immunoblots were stripped for 30 minutes at 50°C in 67 mM Tris at pH 6.7, 2% SDS, 100 mM 2-ME and reprobed with rabbit polyclonal anti-ERK2 or anti-p38 antibodies (Santa Cruz Biotechnology) as described above. Chemotaxis assays Chemotactic responses of MonoMac6 cells were evaluated by using 24-well chemotaxis chambers and polyethylene terephtalate (PET) inserts with 8 µm pores (Becton Dickinson, San Jose, CA) coated with 6.5 µg/mL fibronectin (Sigma) on both sides. MonoMac6 cells, incubated for 16 hours with [3H]-methyl thymidine (ICN, 2.5 µCi/mL) were preincubated or not at 37°C with the different effectors and then were placed in the upper well (0.5 × 106 cells/100 µL) and 5 nM MCP-1 was added to the lower well. Plates were incubated for different time courses at 37°C in 5% CO2 atmosphere, and the migrated cells collected in the lower well were evaluated by the measure of incorporated [3H]-methyl thymidine by scintillation spectroscopy.Transendothelial migration assays Isolation and culture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was performed as described.26,27 Transendothelial migration assays were performed by using 24-well chemotaxis chambers. HUVECs were grown on PET inserts with 8-µm pores (Becton Dickinson) and treated with TNF- at 10 ng/mL for 48 hours before use.
Transendothelial migration assays were performed by using 24-well
chemotaxis chambers. [3H]-methyl thymidine-labeled
MonoMac6 cells (ICN, 2.5 µCi/mL), preincubated or not at 37°C with
the different effectors, were placed in the upper well
(0.5 × 106 cells/100 µL) and 6 nM MCP-1 was added to
the lower well. Plates were incubated for different time courses at
37°C in 5% CO2 atmosphere, and the migrated cells
collected in the lower well were evaluated by scintillation spectroscopy.
MCP-1 stimulates ERK and SAPK activities in human MonoMac6 cells following distinct time courses Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 has been reported to modulate ERK activities in murine T-cell hybrids,21 in human monocytes, and in Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing CCR2B.28 On the basis of this observation, we became interested in studying the effect of MCP-1 on the activity of the different members of endogenous MAP kinases in the human monocytic cell line, MonoMac6.To study the effects of MCP-1 on ERK activities, MonoMac6 cells were
treated with MCP-1 (20 nM) for various periods of time before being
lysed and subsequently analyzed for the activation status of ERK1 and
ERK2 by immunodetection with a specific antiphospho p42/p44 ERKs
antibody. As shown in Figure 1A, MCP-1
stimulated rapidly and transiently both ERK1 and ERK2 activities with a
peak between 5 and 10 minutes and a basal level recovered within 30 minutes.
To further characterize the different signaling pathways implicated in response to MCP-1, we investigated the possible involvement of the 2 SAPKs, JNK1 and p38. SAPK1/JNK1 activity was assayed in JNK1 immunoprecipitates from lysates of MCP-1-treated-MonoMac6 cells, by testing their ability to phosphorylate GST-ATF2 as substrate. As can be seen in Figure 1B, MCP-1 stimulates JNK1 activity with a kinetic profile markedly delayed compared to the time course observed for ERKs, starting by 1 hour, peaking at 2 hours before decreasing to the basal level by 3 hours. To evaluate the response of the SAPK2/p38 activity in response to MCP-1, MonoMac6 cell lysates were analyzed by immunodetection with a specific antiphosphorylated p38 antibody. MCP-1 stimulated p38 activity within 1 hour but at the difference with JNK1, this activity persisted for up to 4 hours. Syk- and Src-like protein tyrosine kinases are involved in MCP-1-induced MAPK activation in MonoMac6 cells To better identify signaling pathways involved in MCP-1-induced ERK and SAPK activation, we examined the possible involvement of protein tyrosine kinases, often described to be implicated in signal transduction from 7 transmembrane receptors. To this aim, MonoMac6 cells were preincubated in the presence of either PP2, a potent inhibitor of the Src kinase family,29 or piceatannol, a specific inhibitor of the Syk tyrosine kinase family30 before being exposed to MCP-1.The data presented in Figure 2A show that
treatment with these 2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors did not affect ERK1
and ERK2 activation in response to MCP-1, revealing that neither Syk
nor Src tyrosine kinases were involved in the regulation of those
kinases.
Instead, MCP-1-induced JNK1 activation was abrogated by piceatannol but not by PP2 suggesting that Syk, but not Src, controlled the JNK1 activation mediated by MCP-1 (Figure 2B). The inhibitory profile of the 2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors on p38 activation (Figure 2C) mirrored that observed with JNK1, because only PP2 was efficient, revealing a specific involvement of Src-like kinases, but not Syk, in the control of MCP-1-induced p38 activation. MCP-1 activates Syk and Src tyrosine kinases in MonoMac6 cells On the basis of the above data suggesting a possible involvement of Src in the control of p38, we sought to verify that Src activity was really activated in response to MCP-1. To this end, Src activity present in anti-Src immunoprecipitates from lysates of cells exposed to MCP-1 was tested. Figure 3B shows that Src kinase was transiently activated, peaking at 2 minutes before declining to the basal level by 5 minutes. Syk was immunoprecipitated from MCP-1-treated MonoMac6 cells and examined for its phosphotyrosine profile. Stimulation of MonoMac6 cells by MCP-1 induced a rapid increase in the level of Syk phosphorylation culminating after 15 minutes (Figure 3A), revealing a marked lag in the activation of the 2 tyrosine kinase activities.
MCP-1-induced ERKs, JNK1, and p38 pathways display distinctive sensitivities to cholera and pertussis toxins Chemokine receptors have long been known to be coupled to G-proteins sensitive to bacterial toxins.31 Previous studies have shown that several MCP-1 downstream signals in monocytic and T cells are coupled to PTX-sensitive G proteins8 and cholera toxin (CTX)-sensitive G proteins.32 To precisely determine whether Go/Gi and Gs proteins were implicated in the differential control of ERKs, JNK1, and p38, MonoMac6 cells were first treated for 4 hours, prior to the stimulation by MCP-1, with PTX, an inhibitor ofo/i G proteins, or CTX, an activator of s G proteins.
Figure 4A shows that MCP-1-mediated ERK1
and ERK2 activations are abrogated by the treatment of MonoMac6 cells
with both CTX and PTX, suggesting that those pathways did require the
coordinated action of Gs and Go/Gi proteins.
At variance with ERKs, JNK1 activity was enhanced by treatment with CTX and remained unaffected when the cells were treated either for 4 hours with 250 ng/mL PTX (Figure 4B) or for 16 hours with 100 ng/mL PTX (data not shown), implying the exclusive involvement of Gs protein in the control of JNK1 activation in response to MCP-1. In the case of p38, we failed to detect any significant variation of the MCP-1-stimulated level of p38 activity in cells exposed to CTX or PTX, although those 2 toxins significantly increased the basal level of p38 activity (Figure 4C). The various kinase activities stimulated in response to MCP-1 are abrogated when MonoMac6 cells are incubated with their respective inhibitors To define the implication of each pathway in the MCP-1-induced monocyte locomotion, we used different pharmacologic drugs. We thus verified that each specific inhibitor was fully efficient on its respective target when applied to intact cells. As shown in Figure 5, MonoMac6 cells were pretreated with the Src kinase family inhibitor PP2,29 the Syk tyrosine kinase inhibitor piceatannol,30 the MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK) inhibitor PD98059,33 the P38/SAPK2 inhibitor SB203580,34 or the SAPK1/SAPK2 inhibitor SB202190.35 The activity of c-Src (panel A), Syk (panel B), ERKs (panel C), or SAPK1/JNK1 (panel D) was then tested after different periods of incubation. The inhibitory effect of SB203580 was assayed by following inhibition of the phosphorylation status of CREB (panel E), a downstream substrate of the SAPK2/P38 pathway.36
MonoMac6 cells display different kinetic migratory profiles during chemotaxis or transmigration through HUVEC monolayers In the chemotaxis experiments, MonoMac6 cells were placed in migration chambers fitted out with fibronectin-coated filters, whereas MonoMac6 transmigration was tested across filters covered with endothelial monolayers (HUVEC).37Although both types of experiments, chemotaxis and transmigration, were
performed with an identical gradient of MCP-1 chemokine, migratory
responses were significantly different. Although the simple coating of
filters with fibronectin allowed a significant mobilization
(6.8% ± 0.4%, at 6 hours) of the MonoMac6 cells in response to
MCP-1 (Figure 6B), the migratory response
through a monolayer of HUVEC cells after a lag period of 1 hour was
roughly 4-fold higher than that observed through fibronectin-coated
filters (Figure 6C), underlying the importance of the presence of
matrix protein components to ensure an efficient migration.
SAPKs, but not ERKs, are implicated in MCP-1-induced MonoMac6 cell locomotion To investigate the respective importance of each type of MAPK in the mediation of MCP-1 chemoattractant effects, MonoMac6 cells were preincubated with different specific MAPK inhibitors before being tested for chemotaxis and transmigration. As shown in Figure 7, pretreatment of MonoMac6 cells with 40 µM PD98059 (lane 2),33 an inhibitor of MAPK/ERK kinase (MEK) activation, did not affect either chemotaxis or transendothelial migration induced by MCP-1, indicating that the ERK1/ERK2 pathways were not involved in those 2 processes.
Conversely, when MonoMac6 cells were preincubated with SB203580 (lane 3), a SAPK2/p38 specific inhibitor,34 chemotaxis as well as transmigration were reduced by 35% and 44%, respectively. Furthermore, treatment with SB202190 (lane 4), which exerts an inhibitory effect on both p38 and JNK1 activities,35 resulted in a 60% decrease for chemotaxis and 82% for transmigration. We verified that neither SB203580 nor SB202190 displays a cross-reactivity toward the ERK pathway (data not shown) These data underscore the coordinate action that the 2 SAPKs pathways play during MCP-1-mediated monocytes locomotion. MCP-1-induced MonoMac6 cell migration across acellular or HUVEC-coated filters is sensitive to CTX and PTX Considering the dramatic effect of CTX and PTX on ERK activity, we were interested in determining the implication of G proteins in the mediation of the MCP-1 chemoattractant effect. MonoMac6 cells were pretreated either with PTX or CTX and then tested for their ability to migrate in response to MCP-1. As seen in Figure 7, the data demonstrated that MCP-1-induced chemotaxis as well as transmigration were sensitive to both toxins. CTX, an activator of Gs proteins, slightly stimulated both acellular and transendothelial migration with respective rates of 114% and 120% (lane 5). Conversely, treatment of MonoMac6 cells with PTX, which inactivates Go/Gi proteins, abrogated the MCP-1-induced migration of monocytic cells through acellular filters as well as HUVEC monolayers (lane 6).
Monocyte emigration is known to require dynamic regulation of integrin adhesiveness for endothelial and extracellular matrix ligands.37,38 However, the signaling pathways involved in the regulation of these processes in monocytic cells are still ill-defined. Analysis of signal transduction revealed that MCP-1 binds to G protein-coupled receptor(s) (GPCR) promoting Ca++ mobilization and cellular transmigration; both processes are blocked by treatment with PTX but not with CTX.39 Recently, several signaling pathways have been more precisely characterized in monocytic cells such as stimulation of at least 2 separate PI3-K isoforms in THP1 cells22 and an activation of the JAK2/STAT3 pathway in MonoMac1 cells.23 Concerning MAPK pathways, experiments performed on human monocytes have reported a stimulation of ERK activities by MCP-1 and the involvement of the ERK cascade in MCP-1-mediated chemotaxis.28 However, to date, no other MAPK family member such as SAPKs (stress MAPKs) has been examined in response to MCP-1. It thus seemed critical to determine the nature of the MAPK triggered by MCP-1 and to elucidate precisely how each of these pathways may contribute to the monocytic cell locomotion. We present evidence here that, in the MonoMac6 cell line, MCP-1 not only stimulated ERK1/ERK2 but also promoted an important increase in the JNK1 and p38 activities. Interestingly, the kinetic profiles appeared very different for these various members of the MAPK family with a rapid and transient activation for both ERKs, whereas JNK1 and p38 SAPKs exhibited an unusual kinetic profile with a delay followed by a sustained activation of, respectively, 2 hours and 4 hours for JNK1 and p38. Those results suggested that different regulatory mechanisms could be triggered by MCP-1 interaction with its receptor, leading to an independent control of the different MAPK pathways. Receptors for MCP-1 belong to a large family of 7 transmembrane-spanning, heterotrimeric GPCRs.17,40 Ligands interacting GPCR have been demonstrated to activate different tyrosine kinases, which may be a way to bridge the G proteins to the ERK pathway.41-44 To better delineate the GPCR-coupled mechanisms responsible for MAPK and SAPK activation in the case of MCP-1, we tested the possible involvement of tyrosine kinases. Various nonreceptor tyrosine kinases of the Src family have recently been shown to participate in myeloid cell signaling responses to growth factors and to IgG binding to Fc receptors, including Lyn, Yes, Hck, Fgr, and c-Src45-49 as well as the non-Src kinase, Syk.50-53 Syk has been reported to be activated in monocytes stimulated by the engagement of integrins.54-56 Furthermore, this tyrosine kinase has been shown to control JNK activation during CD28-mediated T-cell stimulation.35 In our model, we demonstrated that tyrosine kinases exerted a complex control on the different congeners of the MAPK family. Although ERK1 and ERK2 activation seemed to be resistant to piceatannol and PP2, respective inhibitors of Syk and Src-like tyrosine kinases, the activities of the 2 SAPKs were positively controlled by these nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinases. More precisely, JNK1 activation was dramatically diminished by piceatannol but remained unaffected in the presence of PP2, implying that Syk exerts a positive control on the JNK1 pathway. MCP-1-mediated p38 activation presented a susceptibility to these inhibitors, which mirrored that observed with JNK1, showing a total inhibition in the presence of PP2 and no effect of piceatannol. We verified that MCP-1 was effectively capable of activating both Src and Syk activities following a rapid and sharp profile of stimulation, occurring within minutes, compatible with a subsequent activation of JNK1 and p38 that was not detectable before 1 hour. Taken collectively, our data lend support to a model in which MCP-1 activates Syk and Src independently, which in turn stimulate, respectively, the JNK1 and the p38 pathways, whereas the ERK pathway seems to be independent of these nonreceptor kinases. Seven transmembrane domain receptors are known to be coupled to heterotrimeric G proteins for eliciting a wide spectrum of cellular responses. Analysis of the signal transduction pathways has revealed that MCP-1 activates phospholipase C activation,20 intracellular calcium,17,18 and inhibition of adenylate cyclase19 in a PTX-dependent manner suggesting a coupling of MCP-1 receptors to Go/Gi proteins. However, it has recently been demonstrated that the association of chemokine receptors to different G proteins depends on both the receptor and the cell line studied.8,57 To evaluate the coupling mechanism(s) of the MCP-1 receptor and the nature of possible G proteins involved in the signaling events activated by this chemokine, MonoMac6 cells were treated with different bacterial toxins. Interestingly, we found that ERKs and SAPKs exhibited differential sensitivity to PTX and CTX. Although MCP-1-mediated ERK1 and ERK2 activation was abrogated by both types of toxins, suggesting that ERKs are under the control of Gs and Go/Gi proteins, p38 activity was insensitive to both kinds of toxins. Furthermore, MCP-1-induced JNK1 activation exhibited a slight stimulation in response to CTX and no response to PTX, implying specific involvement of Gs proteins to couple MCP-1 receptor to the JNK pathway. To date, scarce information is available on the mechanisms implicated during monocyte migration except that it is a PTX-sensitive process.32,58 The above data prompted us to investigate the relationships that might exist between the different MAPK pathways and the migration of MonoMac6 cells in response to MCP-1. To address this question, 2 types of migratory conditions were tested corresponding to a transendothelial migration or a simple chemotaxis through an acellular filter. In the first model, transmigration of MonoMac6 cells in response to an MCP-1 gradient was carried out through a monolayer of endothelial cells. Even though the efficacy to cross the barrier was higher than that observed on an acellular filter coated with fibronectin, we preferred to also use this second model, owing to possible interference of pharmacologic drugs on the permeability of endothelial barrier. Incubation of the cells with PD98059, a specific inhibitor of the MEK/ERK pathway, did not alter the migration of the monocytic cells in the inner reservoir in either migration conditions. This is in contradiction with a previous study28 reporting that abrogation of the ERK pathway was sufficient to prevent MCP-1-mediated mobilization. Explanation of this discrepancy likely lies on the transformed status of MonoMac6 cells compared to peripheral blood monocytes used in this study, but more work is needed to clarify this point. Interestingly, when MonoMac6 cells were treated with SB203580, a specific inhibitor of p38 pathway, mobilization of the cells was reduced by 56% in chemotaxis and 43% in transmigration, highlighting the crucial role that this pathway plays in the control of MCP-1-induced monocytic locomotion. However, the use of SB202190, which displays an equal inhibitory effect on both JNK1 and p38, resulted in an even more marked inhibition of the MCP-1-mediated migration, revealing that JNK1 was also implicated in the control of the migratory process in response to a preestablished MCP-1 gradient. This idea was strengthened by the effect of CTX that stimulated both JNK1 activation and monocytic migration in response to MCP-1. Furthermore, we found that PTX abrogated both MCP-1-induced chemotaxis and transendothelilal migration, confirming that the activation of Go/Gi proteins is an absolute prerequisite for monocytic locomotion. In conclusion, we provide evidence that JNK1 and p38 act in concert for controlling the MCP-1-induced monocyte locomotion. These SAPK activities are, respectively, upstream regulated by Syk and c-Src activities. The kinetic profile of both SAPK activities that starts after about 1 hour and lasts between 2 and 4 hours is fairly in accord with the MCP-1-induced migration time course of MonoMac6 cells, especially in the case of transendothelial migration.

chemokines exert their action on multiple leukocyte subtypes, including
monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, natural killer (NK), dendritic, and
T cells, but they do not target neutrophils. The C (or
