Pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) adhesion, spreading, and migration depend on matrix-stimulated reorganization of focal adhesions. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) activates intracellular signal transduction cascades that also regulate adhesion, spreading, and migration, but the signaling molecules involved in these events are poorly defined. We hypothesized that phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinases and Src tyrosine kinases translate matrix and PDGF-initiated signals into cell motility. In experiments with cultured canine PASMCs, inhibition of PI 3-kinases with wortmannin (0.3 µM) and LY-294002 (50 µM) and of Src kinase with PP1 (30 µM) did not decrease spontaneous (nonstimulated) or PDGF-stimulated (10 ng/ml) adhesion onto collagen. PI 3-kinase and Src kinase activities, however, were necessary for cell spreading: PP1 inhibited cell spreading and Src Tyr-418 phosphorylation in a concentration-dependent manner. Inhibition of PI 3-kinase and Src partially reduced cell migration, while at 10 and 30 µM, PP1 eliminated migration, likely due to inhibition of PDGF receptors. In conclusion, both PI 3-kinases and Src tyrosine kinases are components of pathways that mediate spreading and migration of cultured PASMCs on collagen.
