Grb2-associated binder-1 (Gab1) is a scaffolding/docking protein and contains a Pleckstrin homology domain and potential binding sites for Src homology (SH) 2 and SH3 domains. Gab1 is tyrosine phosphorylated and associates with protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2 and p85 phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase on stimulation with various cytokines and growth factors, including interleukin-6. We previously demonstrated that interleukin-6-related cytokine, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), induced cardiac hypertrophy through gp130. In this study, we report the role of Gab1 in gp130-mediated cardiac hypertrophy. Stimulation with LIF induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Gab1, and phosphorylated Gab1 interacted with SHP2 and p85 in cultured cardiomyocytes. We constructed three kinds of adenovirus vectors, those carrying wild-type Gab1 (AdGab1WT), mutated Gab1 lacking SHP2 binding site (AdGab1F627/659), and beta-galactosidase (Adbeta-gal). Compared with cardiomyocytes infected with Adbeta-gal, longitudinal elongation of cardiomyocytes induced by LIF was enhanced in cardiomyocytes infected with AdGab1WT but inhibited in cardiomyocytes infected with AdGab1F627/659. Upregulation of BNP mRNA expression by LIF was evoked in cardiomyocytes infected with Adbeta-gal and AdGab1WT but not in cardiomyocytes infected with AdGab1F627/659. In contrast, Gab1 repressed skeletal alpha-actin mRNA expression through interaction with SHP2. Furthermore, activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) was enhanced in cardiomyocytes infected with AdGab1WT compared with cardiomyocytes infected with Adbeta-gal but repressed in cardiomyocytes infected with AdGab1F627/659. Coinfection of AdGab1WT with adenovirus vector carrying dominant-negative ERK5 abrogated longitudinal elongation of cardiomyocytes induced by LIF. Taken together, these findings indicate that Gab1-SHP2 interaction plays a crucial role in gp130-dependent longitudinal elongation of cardiomyoctes through activation of ERK5.
