The relationship between focal adhesion protein (FAK) activity and loss of cell-matrix contact during apoptosis is not entirely clear nor has the role of FAK in chemically induced apoptosis been studied. We investigated the status of FAK phosphorylation and cleavage in renal epithelial cells during apoptosis caused by the nephrotoxicant dichlorovinylcysteine (DCVC). DCVC treatment caused a loss of cell-matrix contact which was preceded by a dissociation of FAK from the focal adhesions and tyrosine dephosphorylation of FAK. Paxillin was also dephosphorylated at tyrosine. DCVC treatment activated caspase-3 which was associated with cleavage of FAK. However, FAK cleavage occurred after cells had already lost focal adhesions indicating that cleavage of FAK by caspases is not responsible for loss of FAK from focal adhesions. Accordingly, although inhibition of caspase activity with zVAD-fmk blocked activation of caspase-3, FAK cleavage, and apoptosis, it neither affected dephosphorylation nor translocation of FAK or paxillin. However, zVAD-fmk completely blocked the cell detachment caused by DCVC treatment. Orthovanadate prevented DCVC-induced tyrosine dephosphorylation of both FAK and paxillin; however, it did not inhibit DCVC-induced apoptosis and actually potentiated focal adhesion disorganization and cell detachment. Thus, FAK dephosphorylation and loss of focal adhesions are not due to caspase activation; however, caspases are required for FAK proteolysis and cell detachment.
