title: Induction of c-Src in human blood monocytes by anti-CD98/FRP-1 mAb in an Sp1-dependent fashion.
abstract: Freshly isolated human blood monocytes expressed neither c-src mRNA nor c-Src. However, when monocytes were incubated with anti-CD98 heavy chain (HC) mAb, expression of c-src mRNA, c-Src, and activated c-Src was induced. Many binding sites for the ubiquitous transcription factor Sp1 were identified in the promoter region of the c-src gene. Surprisingly, Sp1 and Sp1 mRNA were not found in monocytes that were freshly isolated or incubated with control antibody. Stimulation with anti-CD98HC mAb also resulted in the expression of Sp1 and its translocation to the nucleus. Herbimycin A, genistein, manumycin A, PD-98059, SB203580, and HBJ127 suppressed CD98HC-mediated c-src and Sp1 mRNA induction. On the contrary, H-7, Wortmannin, HA1077, and Y-27632 showed no effect on c-Src and Sp1 induction. Furthermore, anti-CD98HC mAb induced activation of tyrosine kinases and ERK kinases. These findings suggest that the tyrosine kinase(s)-Ras-MAPK-Sp1 pathway(s) is involved in CD98HC-mediated induction of c-Src in human blood monocytes.
