ABSTRACT
To explore the role of cortical actin-binding protein (cortactin) in shear stress-induced mucin (MUC) 5AC secretion in human airway epithelial cells and the effect of phosphorylation of cortactin at different sites.
Methods:
HBE16 airway epithelial cells were cultured, and then transfected with mutation carrier, such as pEGFP-N1-cortactin (Cort), pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y421A, pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y470A and pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y486A. The cells were divided into a normal control group, a shear stress group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1 group, a shear stress + PEGFP-N1-Cort group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y421A group, a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y470A group, and a shear stress + pEGFP-N1-Cort-Y486A group. The shear stress were set at 4 dynes/cm2. The levels of MUC5AC protein and mRNA in cells and culture supernatant were assayed with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and real-time PCR. The cortactin and phosphorylated cortactin were detected by Western blot. F-actin was stained by fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-phalloidin.Results:
There was an obvious increase of phosphorylated cortactin in cells exposed to 4 dynes/cm2 of shear stress for 30 min, which reached climax at 2 hours concomitant with elevation of MUC5AC protein production and mRNA expression in the different experiment groups (all P0.05).Conclusion:
Cortactin is involved in shear stress-mediated MUC5AC secretion in human airway epithelial cells, and the phosphorylated site of Tyr421 and Tyr470 may play an important role in it.
