title: Tyrosine 766 in the fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 is required for FGF-stimulation of phospholipase C, phospholipase D, phospholipase A(2), phosphoinositide 3-kinase and cytoskeletal reorganisation in porcine aortic endothelial cells.
abstract: Fibroblast growth factor-mediated signalling was studied in porcine aortic endothelial cells expressing either wild-type fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 or a mutant receptor (Y766F) unable to bind phospholipase C-(&ggr;). Stimulation of cells expressing the wild-type receptor resulted in activation of phospholipases C, D and A(2) and increased phosphoinositide 3-kinase activity. Stimulation of the wild-type receptor also resulted in stress fibre formation and a cellular shape change. Cells expressing the Y766F mutant receptor failed to stimulate phospholipase C, D and A(2) as well as phosphoinositide 3-kinase. Furthermore, no stress fibre formation or shape change was observed. Both the wild-type and Y766F receptor mutant activated MAP kinase and elicited proliferative responses in the porcine aortic endothelial cells. Thus, fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 mediated activation of phospholipases C, D and A(2) and phosphoinositide 3-kinase was dependent on tyrosine 766. Furthermore, whilst tyrosine 766 was not required for a proliferative response, it was required for fibroblast growth factor receptor-1 mediated cytoskeletal reorganisation.
