英文摘要We reported previously that down-regulating or functionally blocking alphav integrins inhibits endogenous p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity and urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) expression in invasive MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells whereas engaging av integrins with vitronectin activates p38 MAPK and up-regulates uPA expression (Chen, J., Baskerville, C., Han, Q., Pan, Z., and Huang, S. (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 47901-47905). Currently, it is not clear what upstream and downstream signaling molecules of p38 MAPK mediate alphav integrin-mediated uPA up-regulation. In the present study, we found that av integrin ligation activated small GTPase Rac1 preferentially, and dominant negative Rac1 inhibited av integrin-mediated p38 MAPK activation. Using constitutively active MAPK kinases, we found that both constitutively active MKK3 and MKK6 mutants were able to activate p38 MAPK and up-regulate uPA expression, but only dominant negative MKK3 blocked alphav integrin-mediated p38 MAPK activation and uPA up-regulation. These results suggest that MKK3, rather than MKK6, mediates av integrin-induced p38 MAPK activation. Among the potential downstream effectors of p38 MAPK, we found that only MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 affects alphav integrin-mediated uPA up-regulation significantly. Finally, using beta-globin reporter gene constructs containing uPA mRNA 3'-untranslated region (UTR) and adenosineturidine-rich elements-deleted 3'-UTR, we demonstrated that p38 MAPK/MAPK-activated protein kinase 2 signaling pathway regulated uPA mRNA stability through a mechanism involving the adenosine/uridine-rich elements sequence in 3'-UTR of uPA mRNA.
