TGF beta is known to transactivate EGFR. However, the signaling component involved in this crosstalk has yet to be revealed. Here, we found that TGF beta(1) phosphorylated EGFR in a dose-dependent manner in SCC13 and A431 cells, and it was not blocked by EGF-neutralizing antibody. H2O2 was increased by TGF beta(1), treatment in the same time-kinetics as EGFR activation. Pretreatment of N-acetyl cysteine abolished TGF beta(1)-induced H2O2 induction and EGFR activation. Direct treatment of H2O2 phosphorylated EGFR and catalase inhibitor prolonged TGF beta(1)-induced EGFR activation. These results show that TGF beta(1) activates EGFR via an H2O2-dependent mechanism, which subsequently leads to the activation of Erk(1/2). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
