We previously reported that activation of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase pathway was important in M-CSF-induced monocyte survival. Because M-CSF also induces activation of the mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase extracellular-regulated kinase (Erk), we focused on dissecting the mechanism used by M-CSF to induce Erk activation in human monocytes. We found that, in addition to the MAP/Erk kinase inhibitor PD098059, the PI 3-kinase inhibitors LY294002 and wortmannin both suppressed Erk activation in M-CSF-treated monocytes, suggesting that 3-phosphorylated products of PI 3-kinase played a role in Erk activation. Investigating the biochemical pathways regulated by PI 3-kinase to activate Erk, we found that, in response to M-CSF, normal human monocytes induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), which were suppressed by the PI 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin but not by the solvent control DMSO or the MAP/Erk kinase inhibitor PD098059. We next found that, in the absence of M-CSF, ROS could induce Erk activation in human monocytes. Exogenous H2O2 induced Erk activation in human monocytes, which was suppressed by exogenous catalase. To determine whether ROS induced by M-CSF played a role in Erk activation, we found that N-acetylcysteine and diphenyleneiodonium both suppressed Erk activation in M-CSF-treated monocytes. Erk activation by M-CSF also seemed to play a role in cellular survival in monocytes. These data suggest that, in M-CSF-stimulated human monocytes, PI 3-kinase products and ROS production play a role in Erk activation and monocyte survival.
