Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and hematopoietic progenitor cells are recruited to ischemic regions, improving neovascularization. beta1 and beta2 integrins play a crucial role for progenitor cell homing to ischemic tissues. Integrin activity is regulated by chemokines and their respective G protein-coupled receptors. The phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase catalytic subunit gamma (PI3Kgamma) is the PI3K isoform that selectively transduces signals from G protein-coupled receptors. Here, we investigated the role of PI3Kgamma as a signaling intermediate in the chemokine-induced integrin-dependent homing functions of progenitor cells. A pharmacological PI3Kgamma inhibitor significantly reduced chemokine-induced chemotaxis and stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)1alpha-induced transmigration of human EPCs. Moreover, the PI3Kgamma inhibitor significantly reduced SDF1alpha-induced adhesion of EPCs to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and human umbilical vein endothelial cell monolayers. These findings were corroborated with Lin(-) bone marrow-derived progenitor cells from PI3Kgamma-deficient mice that displayed reduced SDF1alpha-induced migration and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 adhesion as compared with wild-type cells. Pharmacological inhibition or genetic ablation of PI3Kgamma reduced SDF1alpha-induced integrin activation in human EPCs and in murine Lin(-) BM-derived progenitor cells, respectively. In vivo, the homing of PI3Kgamma-deficient Lin(-) progenitor cells to ischemic muscles after intravenous infusion in the model of hindlimb ischemia and their neovascularization-promoting capacity was reduced as compared with wild-type cells. In conclusion, PI3Kgamma is integral to the integrin-dependent homing of progenitor cells.
