Intracellular signaling mechanisms regulating SDF-1-induced chemotaxis of hematopoietic cells have remained elusive. Here we demonstrate that overexpression of the adaptor molecule CrkL enhances SDF-1-induced chemotaxis of hematopoietic BaF3 and 32Dcl3 cells. Overexpression of CrkL also enhanced SDF-1-induced activation of the Raf-1/MEK/Erk signaling pathway as well as that of the small GTPases Ras, Rap1, and Rac, while a dominant negative mutant of Ras or Rac suppressed CrkL-enhanced Erk activation. SDF-1 stimulation induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CrkL, which was inhibited by the Src family kinase inhibitor PP1 or by dominant negative mutants of Lyn, thus indicating that Lyn mediated SDF-1-induced phosphorylation of CrkL. However, inhibition of the Lyn kinase activity failed to affect SDF-1-induced activation of the small GTPases and Erk. On the other hand, SDF-1-induced activation of the Erk signaling pathway as well as chemotaxis was inhibited by overexpression of a CrkL mutant lacking the N-terminal SH3 domain, which mediates interaction with various signaling molecules including guanine nucleotide exchange factors for the Ras and Rho family GTPases. SDF-1-induced chemotaxis was also inhibited by the dominant negative Ras or Rac mutant as well as by the MEK inhibitor PD98059. These results indicate that CrkL mediates SDF-1-induced activation of the Raf-1/MEK/Erk signaling pathway through Ras as well as Rac in hematopoietic cells and, thereby, plays important roles in the induction of chemotactic response.
