Abstract
Tks5 is a Src substrate and adaptor protein previously recognized for its regulation of cancer cell invasion through modulation of specialized adhesion structures called podosomes/invadopodia. Here we show for the first time that Tks5 localizes to the podosomes of primary macrophages, and that Tks5 protein levels increase concurrently with podosome deposition during the differentiation of monocytes into macrophages. Similar results are reported for model THP‐1 cells, which differentiate into macrophages and form proteolytically active podosomes in response to a PKC signaling agonist (PMA) and with sensitivity to a PKC inhibitor (bisindolylmaleimide). Genetic manipulation of Tks5 expression (silencing and overexpression) in stable THP‐1 cell lines does not independently alter this macrophage differentiation process. Nor do these cells lose the ability to focalize F‐actin and its accessory proteins into podosome‐like structures following PMA treatment. However, Tks5 directly controls podosome‐associated gelatin degradation and invasion through collective changes in adhesion, chemotaxis, and the expression/proteolytic activity of MMP9. The Src family kinase‐dependent phosphorylation of Tks5 is also implicated in the regulation of THP‐1 macrophage invasive behavior. These results therefore define a previously unappreciated function of Tks5 signaling specific to the functional attributes of the macrophage podosome in adhesion, motility, and extracellular matrix‐remodeling.This publication has 70 references indexed in Scilit:
