We examined Nexilin/NEXN in smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and addressed if Nexilin localizes to dense bodies and dense bands and whether it is regulated by actin-controlled coactivators from the MRTF (MYOCD, MKL1, MKL2) and YAP/TAZ (YAP1 and WWTR1) families. NEXN expression in SMCs was comparable to that in striated muscles. Immunofluorescence and immunoelectron microscopy suggested that Nexilin localizes to dense bodies and dense bands. Correlations at the mRNA level suggested that NEXN expression might be controlled by actin polymerization. Depolymerization of actin using Latrunculin B repressed the NEXN mRNA and protein in bladder and coronary artery SMCs. Overexpression and knockdown supported involvement of both YAP/TAZ and MRTFs in the transcriptional control of NEXN. YAP/TAZ and MRTFs appeared equally important in bladder SMCs, whereas MRTFs dominated in vascular SMCs. Expression of NEXN was moreover reduced in situations of SMC phenotypic modulation in vivo. The proximal promoter of NEXN conferred control by MRTF-A/MKL1 and MYOCD. NEXN silencing reduced actin polymerization and cell migration, as well as SMC marker expression. NEXN targeting by actin-controlled coactivators thus amplifies SMC differentiation through the actin cytoskeleton, probably via dense bodies and dense bands."xsd:string |
