• Thrombin-activated PAR-1 stimulates MAPK and PI3K/Akt to trigger ROS generation.
• Thrombin-induced increased phosphorylation of Akt determines accumulation of cyclin D1.
• Thrombin-induced ROS stabilizes HIF-1α to facilitate glucose uptake in astrocytes.
• PAR-1/ROS/HIF-1α/HK2, PAR-1/PI3K/Akt/cyclin D1 contribute to astrocytes proliferation.
Thrombin was found to stimulate astrocytes proliferation. In this study, we want to clarify whether thrombin-activated protease-activated receptor will affect the glucose metabolism signaling pathways to accelerate the proliferation of astrocytes. In addition, we study if thrombin has effects on cell cycle transition to promote astrocytes proliferation. We firstly observed that thrombin activated protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR-1) inducing the increases of intracellular Ca2+ and ROS production, which contribute to the astrocytes' proliferation. We further confirmed that ROS stabilized HIF-1α, the latter subsequently accelerated glucose uptake in astrocytes. On the other hand, we demonstrated that thrombin triggered PI3K/Akt/cyclin D1 signal transduction, which may promote the cell cycle transition to enhance astrocytes proliferation. As a result, we discovered three signaling pathways mainly accounting for cell proliferation induced by thrombin: (1) thrombin-stimulated ERK, JNK/ROS/HIF-1α and (2) PI3K/Akt/ROS/HIF-1α pathways to increase expression of hexokinase 2 which mediated glucose metabolism in astrocytes, and (3) thrombin stimulates PAR-1/PI3K/Akt/cyclin D1 to promote the cell cycle transition and finally to increase cell proliferation.
