| abstractText | Integrin-mediated cell adhesion triggers intracellular signaling cascades, including tyrosine phosphorylation of intracellular proteins. We show in this report that p120(cbl) (Cbl), the 120-kDa c-cbl proto-oncogene product, becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated during integrin-mediated macrophage cell adhesion to extracellular matrix substrata and anti-integrin antibodies. This tyrosine phosphorylation does not occur when cells attach to polylysine, to which cells adhere in a nonspecific fashion. It also does not take place when adhesion-induced reorganization of the cytoskeleton is inhibited with cytochalasin D. In contrast to the rapid and transient tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl by CSF-1 stimulation, tyrosine phosphorylation of Cbl by cell attachment was gradual and persistent. Tyrosine-phosphorylated Cbl was found to form complexes with the SH2 domain-containing signaling proteins Src and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase; in vitro kinase assays demonstrated that these kinases were active in the Cbl complexes following integrin ligand binding. Furthermore, Cbl was found to translocate to the plasma membrane in response to cell adhesion to fibronectin. These observations suggest that Cbl serves as a docking protein and may transduce signals to downstream signaling pathways following integrin-mediated cell adhesion in macrophages. |
