The stimulation of SMC migration by platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) involves the induction of protein kinase C activity. Using immunoblot techniques, we demonstrated that rat aortic SMC express a pattern of PKC isoforms which includes PKC-alpha, delta, epsilon, zeta and eta. Upon exposure to PDGF-BB, a fraction of PKC-delta was rapidly translocated from the cytosol to the post-nuclear particulate fraction at 15 seconds and reached an apparent maximum at 30 minutes. In contrast, PKC-alpha and zeta were not translocated by PDGF-BB, TGF-beta 1, which inhibits PDGF-induced DNA synthesis and chemotaxis, reduced the immunoreactive levels of PKC-delta and blocked the PDGF-induced translocation of PKC-delta to the particulate fraction.

The migration of monocytes into the arterial intima is important in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) is suggested to be a real chemotactic factor that is released from monocytes, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. We investigated the effect of 17 beta-estradiol on the migration of human monocytes in response to MCP-1, using a modified Boyden chamber. A physiological concentration of 17 beta-estradiol (10(12) - 10(4)M) inhibited the migration of monocytes exposed to MCP-1. Two estrogen receptor antagonists, tamoxifen and clomiphene, each restored monocyte chemotaxis to MCP-1 to control level, even in the presence of 17 beta-estradiol, suggesting that estrogen receptors are related to the effect of 17 beta-estradiol. Progesterone and testosterone had no measurable effect on monocyte migration.
