Integrins, a family of transmembrane heterodimeric polypeptides, mediate various biological responses including cell adhesion and migration. In this report, we show that sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) activates integrin alpha(v)beta(3) in endothelial cells (ECs) via the sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor subtype 1 (S1P1)-mediated signaling pathway. S1P treatment results in the activation of integrin alpha(v)beta(3) in the lamellipodia region of ECs, suggesting that integrin alpha(v)beta(3) plays a critical role in the S1P-stimulated chemotactic response of ECs. Indeed, S1P treatment induces the association of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and cytoskeletal proteins with integrin alpha(v)beta(3), the ligation of alpha(v) and beta(3) subunits, as well as enhances endothelial migration on vitronectin-coated substrata. Knockdown endothelial S1P1 receptor, treatments with pertussis toxin or dominant-negative-Rho family GTPases abrogates the S1P-induced integrin alpha(v)beta(3) activation in ECs. Consequently, these treatments markedly inhibit the S1P-induced endothelial migratory response on vitronectin-coated substrata. Collectively, these data indicate that the S1P-mediated signaling via the S1P1/G(i)/Rho GTPases pathway activates integrin alpha(v)beta(3), which is indispensable for S1P-stimulated chemotactic response of ECs.
