Akt ABSTRACT Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a pleiotropic cytokine of mesenchymal origin promoting migration, prolifera- tion, and survival in a wide spectrum of cells, can also modulate different biological responses in stem cells, but the mechanisms involved are not completely understood so far. In this context, we show that short-term exposure of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to HGF can induce the activation of its cognate Met receptor and the down- stream effectors ERK1/2, p38MAPK, and PI3K/Akt, while long-term exposure to HGF resulted in cytoskeletal rearrangement, cell migration, and marked inhibition of proliferation through the arrest in the G1-S checkpoint. When added to MSCs, the K252A tyrosine kinase inhib- itor prevented HGF-induced responses. HGF’s effect on MSC proliferation was reversed by p38 inhibitor SB203580, while the effects on cell migration were abro- gated by PI3K inhibitor Wortmannin, suggesting that HGF acts through different pathways to determine its complex effects on MSCs. Prolonged treatment with HGF induced the expression of cardiac-specific markers (GATA-4, MEF2C, TEF1, desmin, -MHC, -MHC, and nestin) with the concomitant loss of the stem cell markers nucleostemin, c-kit, and CD105.
