Israeli S, Amsler K, Zheleznova N, Wilson PD. Abnormalities in focal adhesion complex formation, regulation, and function in human autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease epithelial cells. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 298: C831-C846, 2010. First published November 18, 2009; doi:10.1152/ajpcell.00032.2009.-Integrin-associated focal adhesion complex formation and turnover plays an essential role in directing interactions between epithelial cells and the extracellular matrix during organogenesis, leading to appropriate cell spreading, cell-matrix adhesion, and migration. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is associated with loss of function of PKHD1-encoded protein fibrocystin-1 and is characterized by cystic dilation of renal collecting tubules (CT) in utero and loss of renal function in patients if they survive the perinatal period. Normal polycystin-1 (PC-1)/focal adhesion complex function is required for control of CT diameter during renal development, and abnormalities in these complexes have been demonstrated in human PC-1 mutant cystic cells. To determine whether loss of fibrocystin-1 was associated with focal adhesion abnormalities, ARPKD cells or normal age-matched human fetal (HF)CT cells in which fibrocystin-1 had been decreased by 85% by small interfering RNA inhibition were compared with normal HFCT. Accelerated attachment and spreading on collagen matrix and decreased motility of fibrocystin-1-deficient cells were associated with longer paxillin-containing focal adhesions, more complex actin-cytoskeletal rearrangements, and increased levels of total beta(1)-integrin, c-Src, and paxillin. Immunoblot analysis of adhesive cells using site-specific phospho-antibodies demonstrated ARPKD-associated loss of activation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) by phosphorylation at its autophosphorylation site (Y397); accelerated FAK inhibition by phosphorylation at Y407, S843, and S910; as well as increased activation of c-Src at pY418. Paxillin coimmunoprecipitation analyses suggested that fibrocystin-1 was a component of the normal focal adhesion complex and that actin and fibrocystin-1 were lost from ARPKD complexes.
