Function

Tyrosine-protein kinase that acts as a cell-surface receptor for homodimeric PDGFB and PDGFD and for heterodimers formed by PDGFA and PDGFB, and plays an essential role in the regulation of embryonic development, cell proliferation, survival, differentiation, chemotaxis and migration. Plays an essential role in blood vessel development by promoting proliferation, migration and recruitment of pericytes and smooth muscle cells to endothelial cells. Plays a role in the migration of vascular smooth muscle cells and the formation of neointima at vascular injury sites. Required for normal development of the cardiovascular system. Required for normal recruitment of pericytes (mesangial cells) in the kidney glomerulus, and for normal formation of a branched network of capillaries in kidney glomeruli. Promotes rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton and the formation of membrane ruffles. Binding of its cognate ligands - homodimeric PDGFB, heterodimers formed by PDGFA and PDGFB or homodimeric PDGFD -leads to the activation of several signaling cascades; the response depends on the nature of the bound ligand and is modulated by the formation of heterodimers between PDGFRA and PDGFRB. Phosphorylates PLCG1, PIK3R1, PTPN11, RASA1/GAP, CBL, SHC1 and NCK1. Activation of PLCG1 leads to the production of the cellular signaling molecules diacylglycerol and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate, mobilization of cytosolic Ca(2+) and the activation of protein kinase C. Phosphorylation of PIK3R1, the regulatory subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, leads to the activation of the AKT1 signaling pathway. Phosphorylation of SHC1, or of the C-terminus of PTPN11, creates a binding site for GRB2, resulting in the activation of HRAS, RAF1 and down-stream MAP kinases, including MAPK1/ERK2 and/or MAPK3/ERK1. Promotes phosphorylation and activation of SRC family kinases. Promotes phosphorylation of PDCD6IP/ALIX and STAM. Receptor signaling is down-regulated by protein phosphatases that dephosphorylate the receptor and its down-stream effectors, and by rapid internalization of the activated receptor.

Activity summary

PDGFR beta also known as PDGFR-b or PDGFRB is a cell surface tyrosine kinase receptor with a molecular mass of about 180 kDa. It binds the PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) family of ligands. PDGFR beta is commonly found in various tissues including blood vessels and connective tissues and is highly expressed in cells like pericytes and fibroblasts. The receptor plays a critical role in cell signaling mechanisms involving proliferation chemotaxis and survival.

Biological function summary

The receptor plays an essential role in the regulation of cell growth and development. PDGFR beta undergoes dimerization and autophosphorylation upon ligand binding initiating a series of downstream signaling cascades. This receptor is often part of a complex with other receptor proteins promoting interactions necessary for signal propagation. Its main biological functions include mediating cellular responses to environmental signals that contribute to tissue repair and angiogenesis.

Pathways

PDGFR beta is an important player within the PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways. It works alongside proteins such as PI3K and Ras to regulate cellular responses related to growth and survival. These pathways facilitate cross-talk with other cellular processes influencing various cellular outcomes. This receptor's activity regulates critical physiological functions by providing signals that maintain cellular homeostasis under various physiological conditions.

Associated diseases and disorders

PDGFR beta has significant implications in the progression of cancer and fibrotic diseases. Its overexpression or mutation can lead to anomalous signaling that contributes to tumorigenesis particularly in connective tissue tumors known as sarcomas. Additionally PDGFR beta's role in promoting fibroblast activity makes it relevant in fibrotic diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis. Abnormal activation of PDGFR beta can interact with related proteins like VEGF receptors enhancing pathogenic responses and contributing to disease severity.
