G protein-coupled receptor kinase-5 (GRK5) is a widely expressed Ser/Thr kinase that regulates several atherogenic receptors, and may activate or inhibit NFκB. This study sought to determine whether and by what mechanisms GRK5 affects atherosclerosis. Grk5−/−/Apoe−/− mice developed 50% greater aortic atherosclerosis than Apoe−/− mice, and demonstrated greater proliferation of macrophages and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerotic lesions. In Apoe−/− mice, carotid interposition grafts from Grk5−/− mice demonstrated greater up-regulation of cell adhesion molecules than grafts from WT mice, and subsequently more atherosclerosis. By comparing Grk5−/− with WT cells, we found that GRK5 desensitized two key atherogenic receptor tyrosine kinases: the PDGF receptor-β (PDGFRβ) in SMCs, by augmenting ubiquitination/degradation; the colony stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) in macrophages, by reducing CSF-1-induced tyrosyl phosphorylation. GRK5 activity in monocytes also reduced migration promoted by the 7-transmembrane receptor for MCP-1 (CCR2). Whereas GRK5 diminished NFκB-dependent gene expression in SMCs and endothelial cells, it had no effect on NFκB activity in macrophages. GRK5 attenuates atherosclerosis through multiple cell type-specific mechanisms, including reduction of SMC and endothelial cell NFκB activity, and desensitization of receptor-specific signaling through the monocyte CCR2, macrophage CSF-1R, and the SMC PDGFRβ.
