摘要

Migration of epithelial cell sheets, a process involving F-actin restructuring through Rho family GTPases, is both physiologically and pathophysiologically important. Our objective was to clarify the mechanisms whereby the downstream RhoA effector Rho-associated coil-coil-forming kinase (ROCK) influences coordinated epithelial cell motility. Although cells exposed to a pharmacological ROCK inhibitor (Y-27632) exhibited increased spreading in wound closure assays, they failed to migrate in a cohesive manner. Two main phenomena were implicated: the formation of aberrant protrusions at the migrating front and the basal accumulation of F-actin aggregates. Aggregates reflected increased membrane affiliation and detergent insolubility of the actin-binding protein ezrin and enhanced coassociation of ezrin with the membrane protein CD44. While F-actin aggregation following ROCK inhibition was recapitulated by inhibiting myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation with the MLC kinase inhibitor ML-7, the latter didnot influence protrusiveness and, in fact, significantly decreased cell migration. Our results suggest that excessive protrusiveness downstream of ROCK inhibition reflects an influence of ROCK on F-actin stability via LIM kinase 1 (LIMK-1), which phosphorylates and inactivates cofilin. Y-27632 reduced the levels of both active LIMK-1 and inactive cofilin (phospho forms), and expression of a dominant negative LIMK-1 mutant stimulated leading edge protrusiveness. Furthermore, Y-27632-induced protrusions were partially reversed by overexpression of LIMK-1 to restore cofilin phosphorylation. In summary, our results provide new evidence suggesting that adhesive and protrusive events involved in organized epithelial motility downstream of ROCK are separately coordinated through the phosphorylation of (respectively) MLC and cofilin.
