Glycoprotein 130 (gp130), a common receptor of IL-6 family cytokines, plays critical roles in cardiac functions. Here, we demonstrate that the stimulation of gp130 with leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) promoted cell adhesion in a cadherin-dependent manner in cultured cardiomyocytes. Wnt5a was upregulated by the stimulation of gp130 with IL-6 family cytokines, accompanied by N-cadherin protein upregulation. Wnt5a was not induced by LIF in cardiomyocytes expressing dominant-negative STAT3. Ablation of Wnt5a by antisense cDNA inhibited LIF-induced cell adhesion. Collectively, signals through gp130 upregulate Wnt5a through STAT3, promoting the N-cadherin-mediated cell adhesion. (C) 2004 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V.
