The phospholipid lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a normal constituent of serum that functions as a lipid growth factor and intracellular signaling molecule. In this report, we have investigated the signaling mechanism and function of the tyrosine kinase RAFTK/Pyk2 in LPA-induced cell migration. Analysis of tyrosine phosphorylation upon LPA stimulation in neuroendocrine PC12 cells revealed 6 major tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins with estimated sizes of 180, 120, 115, 68, 44, and 42 kDa. These proteins were identified as epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), focal adhesion kinase, RAFTK/Pyk2, paxillin, Erk 1, and Erk 2, respectively. Using specific pharmacological inhibitors, we found that the tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK/Pyk2 was intracellular Ca2+-dependent, but not EGFR-dependent, during LPA stimulation of these cells. Moreover, the cytoskeletal and signal scaffolding protein, paxillin, associated with and was regulated by RAFTK/Pyk2 in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Characterization of LPA receptors showed that LPA1(Edg2) and LPA2(Edg4) are major receptors for LPA, while LPA3receptor (Edg7) expression was limited. Upon using the LPA1/LPA3receptor-specific antagonist VPC 32179, we observed that inhibition of the LPA1/LPA3receptors had no effect on the LPA-induced phosphorylation of RAFTK, strongly suggesting that the LPA2receptor is a key mediator of RAFTK phosphorylation. Furthermore, LPA induced PC12 cell migration, which was subsequently blocked by the dominant-negative form of FAK, FRNK. Expression of a dominant-negative form of the small GTPase Ras also blocked LPA-induced cell migration and RAFTK phosphorylation. Taken together, these results indicate that RAFTK is a key signaling molecule that mediates LPA-induced PC12 cell migration in a Ras-dependent manner.
