Verotoxin (VT)-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) O157:H7 infections are frequently complicated by thrombotic angiopathy, hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) and neurological symptoms. The present data demonstrate that VT-1 (Shiga toxin) stimulation of macrophage-like THP-1 cells up-regulates the activity, antigen and mRNA levels of tissue factor (TF), a key cofactor of the coagulation-inflammation-thrombosis circuit. This up-regulation is accompanied by phosphorylation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (P13-kinase), I kappa B kinase beta (IKK beta) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 2 (ERK2). Changes in TF mRNA levels were in parallel with the activation of NF-kappa B/Rel and Egr-1 activation, but not with AP-1. Inhibition of P13-kinase attenuated VT-1-induced phosphorylation of IKK beta and ERK2, and the up-regulation of TF mRNA levels. VT-1 stimulation rapidly activated c-Yes tyrosine kinase, a member of the Src family. Treatment of the cells with c-Yes antisense oligos attenuated the VT-1-induced phosphorylation of P13-kinase, IKK beta and ERK2, activations of NF-kappa B/Rel and Egr-1, and up-regulation of TF mRNA levels. These results suggest that VT-1-induced macrophage stimulation activates c-Yes, which then up-regulates TF expression through activation of the IKK beta/proteasome/NF-kappa B/Rel and MEK/ERK2/Egr-1 pathways via activation of P13-kinase. Induction of macrophage TF expression by VT-1 may play an important role in the acceleration of the coagulation-inflammation-thrombosis circuit during infections by VT-producing E. coli.
