TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Hepatocyte growth factor activator is a serum activator of single-chain precursor macrophage-stimulating protein

Macrophage-stimulating protein (MSP) is a plasma protein that circu-lates as a single-chain proform. It acquires biological activity after prote-olytic cleavage at the Arg483–Val484 bond, a process in which serum and cell surface serine proteinases have been implicated. | ỊFEBS Journal Hepatocyte growth factor activator is a serum activator of single-chain precursor macrophage-stimulating protein Makiko Kawaguchi Hiroshi Orikawa Takashi Baba Tsuyoshi Fukushima and Hiroaki Kataoka Section of Oncopathology and Regenerative Biology Department of Pathology Faculty of Medicine University of Miyazaki Japan Keywords activation hepatocyte growth factor activator macrophage-stimulating protein recepteur d origine nantais RON serum Correspondence H.

It acquires biological activity after proteolytic cleavage at the Arg483-Val484 bond a process in which serum and cell surface serine proteinases have been implicated. In this article we report that hepatocyte growth factor activator HGFA a serum proteinase which activates hepatocyte growth factor in response to tissue injury may have a critical role in the activation of pro-MSP. In vitro analysis has revealed that human HGFA efficiently cleaves human pro-MSP at the physiological activation site without further degradation resulting in biologically active MSP as measured by the chemotactic response and MSP-induced morphological change of peritoneal macrophages. The processing of pro-MSP by HGFA is 10-fold more efficient than processing by factor XIa. To search for a role of HGFA in pro-MSP activation we analyzed the processing of mouse pro-MSP in sera from HGFA-knockout HGFA mice. The proform of MSP was the predominant molecular form in the plasma of both wild-type and HGFA mice. In wild-type sera endogenous pro-MSP was progressively converted to the mature
