RhoA/Rho-Associated Kinase Pathway Selectively Regulates Thrombin-Induced Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 Expression in Endothelial Cells via Activation of I{kappa}B Kinase {beta} and Phosphorylation of RelA/p651

We investigated the involvement of the RhoA/Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) pathway in regulating ICAM-1 expression in endothelial cells by the procoagulant, thrombin. Exposure of HUVECs to C3 exoenzyme, a selective inhibitor of Rho, markedly reduced thrombin-induced ICAM-1 expression. Inhibition of ROCK, the downstream effector of Rho, also prevented thrombin-induced ICAM-1 expression. Blockade of thrombin-induced ICAM-1 expression was secondary to inhibition of NF-{kappa}B activity, the key regulator of ICAM-1 expression in endothelial cells. In parallel studies we observed that inhibition of the RhoA/ROCK pathway by the same pharmacological and genetic approaches failed to inhibit TNF-{alpha}-induced NF-{kappa}B activation and ICAM-1 expression. The effect of RhoA/ROCK inhibition on thrombin-induced NF-{kappa}B activation was secondary to inhibition of I{kappa}B kinase activation and subsequent I{kappa}B{alpha} degradation and nuclear uptake and the DNA binding of NF-{kappa}B. Inhibition of the RhoA/ROCK pathway also prevented phosphorylation of Ser536 within the transactivation domain 1 of NF-{kappa}B p65/RelA, a critical event conferring transcriptional competency to the bound NF-{kappa}B. Thus, the RhoA/ROCK pathway signals thrombin-induced ICAM-1 expression through the activation of I{kappa}B kinase, which promotes NF-{kappa}B binding to ICAM-1 promoter and phosphorylation of RelA/p65, thus mediating the transcriptional activation of bound NF-{kappa}B.
