It has been proposed that cross-talk between integrin and growth factor receptor signaling such as ErbB2 (HER2) is required for activation of downstream effectors and ErbB2-mediated mammary tumorigenesis. Here we show that transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) induced focal adhesion kinase (FAK)-dependent clustering of HER2 and integrin α6, β1 and β4 in HER2-overexpressing mammary epithelial cells without altering the total and surface levels of HER2 receptors. This effect was mediated by ligand-induced EGFR activation and the subsequent phosphorylation of Src and FAK. We have previously reported that TGF-β upregulates EGFR ligand shedding through a mechanism involving the phosphorylation of TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE/ADAM17). Knock down of TACE, FAK or integrin α6 by siRNA or inhibition of EGFR or Src by specific inhibitors abrogated TGF-β-induced receptor clustering and signaling to PI3K-Akt. Finally, inhibition of Src-FAK reversed TGF-β-induced resistance to the therapeutic HER2 inhibitor trastuzumab in HER2-overexpressing breast cancer cells. Taken together, these data suggest that, by activating Src-FAK, TGF-β integrates ErbB receptor and integrin signaling to induce cell migration and survival during breast cancer progression.
