WAVE1 overexpression and synaptopodin knockdown experiments directly demonstrated that WAVE1 expression is not dependent on synaptopodin expression, and vice versa.

Tropomyosin-related kinase C (TrkC) enhances podocyte migration by ERK-mediated WAVE2 activation.

|
Activation of endogenous TrkC by its ligand neurotrophin-3 resulted in increased podocyte migration-a surrogate of podocyte actin dynamics in vivo.

|
Employing a mutagenesis approach, we found that the Src homologous and collagen-like (Shc) binding site Tyr516 within the TrkC cytoplasmic domain was necessary for TrkC-induced migration of podocytes.

|
TrkC activation led to a mobility shift of Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome family verprolin-homologous protein (WAVE)-2 which is known to orchestrate Arp2/3 activation and actin polymerization.

|
Chemical inactivation of Erk or mutagenesis of 2 of 4 known Erk target sites within WAVE2, Thr346 and Ser351, abolished the TrkC-induced WAVE2 mobility shift.

|
Knockdown of WAVE2 by shRNA abolished TrkC-induced podocyte migration.

|
In summary, TrkC signals to the podocyte actin cytoskeleton to induce migration by phosphorylating WAVE2 Erk dependently.
