Function

The protein expressed by the PDGFRB gene is a tyrosine-protein kinase that functions as a cell-surface receptor for various PDGF homodimers and heterodimers, playing an essential role in embryonic development, cell proliferation, survival, differentiation, chemotaxis, and migration. It is crucial for blood vessel development by promoting the proliferation and migration of, as well as recruitment of, pericytes and smooth muscle cells to endothelial cells. It has a role in vascular smooth muscle cell migration and neointima formation at injury sites, and is necessary for normal cardiovascular development and pericyte recruitment in kidney glomeruli. The protein facilitates actin cytoskeleton rearrangement and membrane ruffle formation. Ligand binding activates signaling cascades depending on the ligand bound and interactions with PDGFRA, leading to phosphorylation of several substrates, activation of signaling pathways such as AKT1, MAPK, and SRC family kinases, and production of molecules like diacylglycerol and inositol trisphosphate. Receptor signaling is downregulated by protein phosphatases and receptor internalization. This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Activity summary

PDGFR alpha and PDGFR beta are receptor tyrosine kinases also known as CD140a and CD140b. Both receptors have a molecular mass of about 180 kDa. PDGFR alpha is expressed in a variety of tissues including placenta astrocytes and vascular smooth muscle cells. PDGFR beta is more specific to fibroblasts smooth muscle cells and in the vascular system. These receptors bind platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) and become activated through dimerization and autophosphorylation.

Biological function summary

These receptors drive cellular processes like proliferation differentiation and migration. PDGFR alpha and beta operate as a significant part of a receptor complex. They modulate responses in mesenchymal cells and influence developmental pathways. In the vasculature system these receptors play roles in maintaining structure and function of blood vessels. Alterations in receptor activities can affect development of tissues and organs.

Pathways

PDGFR alpha and beta are key players in the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and MAPK pathway. The activation of these pathways leads to cellular processes like survival and growth. PDGFR activity often interacts with other proteins such as SHP-2 RAS and Akt. These interactions contribute to the regulation of cellular responses to external growth signals embedding PDGFR in a web of intracellular cascade systems.

Associated diseases and disorders

PDGFRs have linkage to conditions like cancer and fibrotic diseases. Aberrant PDGFR alpha activity has connections to glioblastoma while PDGFR beta alterations often relate to systemic sclerosis. These receptors can work alongside proteins like VEGF and TGF-beta within these diseases. Their dysregulation leads to pathological angiogenesis and abnormal cell proliferation making them targets for therapeutic intervention.

    Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing NIH/3T3 cells stained with ab314942 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min) and then permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were incubated in 1x PBS containing 10% normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab314942) (1x 106in 100µl at 0.2µg/ml (1/2500)) for 30min at 22°C.

    Isotype control antibody (black line) was APC Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

    Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 40 mW Red laser (638nm) and 660/10 bandpass filter.

    This antibody gave a positive signal in NIH/3T3 Fixed with 80% methanol (5 min) / permeabilised with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min under the same conditions.
