Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are transactivated by the stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Sphingosine I-phosphate (SIP), a ligand of GPCR, is known as a tumor-promoting lipid, but its signaling pathways are not fully understood. We here demonstrated that SIP induces rapid and transient tyrosine phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and c-Met in gastric cancer cells, both of which have been proposed as prognostic markers of gastric cancers. The pathway of SIP-induced c-Met transactivation is Gi-independent and matrix metalloproteinase-independent, which differs from that of EGFR transactivation. Our results indicate that SIP acts upstream of various RTKs and thus may act as a potent stimulator of gastric cancer. (C) 2004 Federation of European Biochemical Societies.
