Abstract
Interleukin-1 (IL-1) signaling in anchorage-dependent cells involves focal adhesion-restricted and Ca2+-dependent Ras and extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK) activation that lead to MMP release and extracellular matrix remodeling. Ras activity is regulated in part by the Ca2+-responsive Ras guanine-nucleotide-releasing factors 1 and 2 (Ras-GRF1/2), but the mechanisms that link and localize IL-1-induced Ca2+ signaling to focal adhesions are not defined. Herein we characterized the role of Ras-GRF1/2 in Ca2+ and RasERK signaling after IL-1 stimulation.
