Differences in laminin fragment interactions of normal and transformed endothelial cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Bovine aortic and microvascular endothelial cells showed good adhesion with spreading on fibronectin or collagen IV and to a lower extent on laminin. Recognition of native laminin was due to its long arm fragment E8 and was mediated by alpha 6 integrins as demonstrated by antibody inhibition. A considerably stronger, RGD-dependent interaction was observed with the isolated laminin short arm fragment P1 previously shown to represent a cryptic cell-binding site. No adhesion was observed with the heparin-binding fragment E3. In contrast, murine microvascular endothelial cells transformed by the polyoma middle T oncogene showed preferential adherence and spreading on laminin via its E8 cell-binding site and also showed adhesion to fragment E3. Attachment to laminin fragment P1 and to collagen IV was low or negative and was never followed by spreading. These data show that the transformation of microvascular endothelial cells, which give them the property to form hemangiomas, also leads to changes in cell adhesion to extracellular matrix proteins, particularly to laminin fragments. 相似文献

Cell surface molecules that interact with the cross formed by the three short arms of murine tumor laminin were studied using thermal perturbation, antibody and peptide blocking, and affinity chromatography. Several potential receptors for the laminin short arms were revealed that differed from those mediating cell attachment to the E8 (long arm) fragment. Two cell lines, Rugli and L8 attached well to E1-X (short arm) fragments of laminin. This attachment was blocked by antibodies against alpha 1 integrin chains. Other cells were unable to attach strongly to E1-X, but attached to P1. This attachment was unaffected by anti-beta 1 integrin antibodies, but specifically blocked by the peptide GRGDS. By contrast, binding of Rugli cells was RGD independent and blocked by anti-beta 1 integrin antibodies. G7 and C2C12 myoblasts were very sensitive to GRGDS (ID50 approximately 2 micrograms.ml-1) for attachment to P1 which implied that a non-beta 1 series integrin, possibly alpha v beta 3, was involved. On heat denaturation of P1(3) attachment remained sensitive to RGDS and ID50 was unchanged. On heat denaturation of E1-X, attachment remained sensitive to RGDS but the ID50 increased to approximately 200 micrograms.ml-1. Cellular beta 1 integrins were retained on laminin affinity columns. A beta 1 integrin with an approximately 190 kD alpha-chain could be isolated from Rugli cells whose attachment could be blocked by anti-alpha 1 antibodies and not from cells blocked by RGDS peptides. Anti-alpha 1 antibodies blocked Rugli attachment to native laminin, but only when the E8 cell binding sites on laminin were also blocked. Thus, a receptor related to alpha 1 beta 1 integrin can function simultaneously with a receptor for E8. Anti-alpha 1 also blocked attachment to heated laminin, suggesting that the heat-stable attachment activity in laminin involved the E1-X binding site. Thus, at least two putative receptors mediate attachment to the short arms of laminin. One, related to alpha 1 beta 1 integrin, recognizes RGDS-independent sites in E1-X defined by P1 (within domains III, IIIa, IIIb), and one is an RGD-dependent molecule recognizing sites in P1, and is not a beta 1 integrin. 相似文献

The carbohydrate binding specificity of Mr = 30,000 lectin (CBP30) from baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells has been studied by inhibition of binding of the radiolabeled lectin to asialofetuin-Sepharose using model oligosaccharides and glycopeptides. CBP30 binds type I or II Gal beta(1----3(4))GlcNAc chains but not Gal(beta 1----3)GalNAc. The inhibitory potency of straight chain polylactosamine structures or complex-type branched glycans is increased in proportion to the number of Gal(beta 1----3(4)) units present. Fucosylation or sialylation of terminal galactose residues or further substitution by (alpha 1----3)-linked galactose or N-acetylgalactosamine does not affect binding whereas substitution of the penultimate N-acetylglucosamine residue drastically reduces binding. Thus, blood group A, H type I or H type II structures, shows high affinity whereas Lex, Lea, and Leb structures bind poorly. CBP30 binds to murine Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumor laminin and human amniotic fluid fibronectin but not human plasma fibronectin. Binding involves polylactosamine glycans as well as tri- and tetraantennary complex-type glycans present in EHS laminin and amniotic fluid fibronectin but absent in plasma fibronectin. Proteolytic fragments of EHS laminin (E1X/Nd, P1, E8, and E3) bind CBP30, but only fragment E8 supports attachment and spreading of BHK cells. BHK cell adhesion to EHS laminin or fragment E8 was not disturbed by CBP30-specific antibodies, but at relatively high concentrations (45 micrograms/ml) CBP30 inhibited spreading and partially attachment of cells on laminin. 相似文献

Cell interactions with laminin and its proteolytic fragments during outgrowth of mouse primary trophoblast cells. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
D R Armant 《Biology of reproduction》1991,45(5):664-672
Mouse blastocysts in serum-free culture for 24-48 h become attachment-competent, adhere to fibronectin- or laminin-coated surfaces, and subsequently form trophoblast outgrowths. The blastocyst laminin receptor was characterized in outgrowth studies using modified laminin. Trophoblast cells interacted with the peptide portion of laminin, but not the oligosaccharide moiety since its adhesive activity was reduced by boiling or trypsin treatment, but not by treatments that removed or modified its carbohydrate. Laminin outgrowth-promoting activity was further localized within its structural domains by use of the well-characterized proteolytic fragments of laminin, E1-4, and E8, and a synthetic peptide, CDPGYIGSR. The E1-4 fragment of laminin did not promote embryo outgrowth. However, the E8 fragment, which contains a heparin-binding domain as well as sites recognized during cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth, vigorously promoted outgrowth in both the presence and absence of heparin, heparan sulfate, or heparinase. Consistent with these results, outgrowth on intact laminin was not inhibited by CDPGYIGSR, a sequence within the E1-4 fragment that is known to mediate the adhesion of some cell types. It is concluded from these results that early trophoblast cells adhere to peptide in the E8 domain of laminin using a mechanism that is independent of the one used for adhesion to fibronectin. 相似文献

Skeletal myoblasts utilize a novel beta 1-series integrin and not alpha 6 beta 1 for binding to the E8 and T8 fragments of laminin. 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

The E8 fragment of laminin stimulates myoblast attachment and locomotion. Myoblast attachment to laminin/E8 was blocked by anti-integrin antibodies against beta 1-chains but not by antibodies against alpha 6-chains. By contrast, other cell lines (e.g. B16, HT1080, P19, F9, Pys2, 3T3, and 3T6) were blocked both by anti-beta 1 and anti-alpha 6. All cells tested also bound to approximately 125-kDa C-terminal fragments of E8 (T8 and T8'). Immunoprecipitation of surface-iodinated myoblasts revealed beta 1-, alpha 3-, and alpha 5-integrin chains and a novel chain that co-precipitated with anti-beta 1 antibodies running at approximately 95 kDa (reduced). I125-alpha 6 beta 1 was immunoprecipitated from cells whose attachment to E8 was blocked by anti-alpha 6 antibodies. By contrast, little alpha 6 beta 1 could be immunoprecipitated from myoblasts. beta 1-Integrin and the novel alpha-chain (alpha'), Mr approximately 120,000/approximately 95.000 (nonreduced/reduced), from myoblast lysates were retained during affinity chromatography on Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm-laminin affinity columns. beta 1, alpha 1, and the novel alpha' were retained from Rugli cell lysates on Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm-laminin columns. alpha 3 was not bound. When E8 was used as affinity matrix, only beta 1 and alpha' were retained. The N-terminal sequence of Rugli alpha' was homologous to alpha-chains of beta 1-series integrins and was most similar to alpha 6 (9 identical residues out of 14). However, there were distinctive differences; in particular, 2 residues were deleted in comparison with alpha 6. 相似文献

Spreading of B16 F1 cells on laminin and its proteolytic fragments P1 and E8: involvement of laminin carbohydrate chains 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The properties of EHS laminin and its proteolytic fragments E8 and P1 to promote spreading of B16 F1 murine melanoma cells were studied in short-term adhesion assays. The cells exhibited similar attachment rates but distinct spread morphologies on laminin, P1, and E8 fragments. The extent of spreading and the shape of the cells were quantitatively defined by two geometrical parameters: the surface and the form factor. These parameters were computed with an automatic image analyzer. Wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), applied to laminin-coated substrates, totally blocked cell spreading, but did not modify attachment percentages. Under similar conditions, WGA partially inhibited cell spreading on the E8 fragment and had no effect on the P1 fragment. In Western blot analysis, P1 fragment, contrary to laminin and E8, did not bind WGA. Laminin galactosylation and cell treatment with alpha-lactalbumin, which should prevent cell galactosyltransferase (GalTase) from binding to N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) residues of the substrate, had no effect on the spreading ability of B16 F1 cells. The role of laminin N-linked carbohydrate chains in the induction of B16 F1 cell spreading was studied further after endoglycosidase F (Endo F) treatment of the substrates. The loss of carbohydrate chains was estimated by the reduction of iodinated lectin binding and by SDS-PAGE. Endo F treatment of laminin (85% of WGA binding inhibition) and E8 (40-50%) had no effect on cell spreading. In contrast, Endo F treatment of P1 fragment (85% of Con A binding inhibition) reduced both cell surface and form factor of B16 F1 cells. These results suggest that: (i) other spreading systems may act in concert with or in place of GalTase/GlcNAc interactions, (ii) the N-linked sugar chains of P1, which are not recognized by WGA, are involved in the spreading process of B16 F1 cells on this fragment, (iii) the epitopes of E8 fragment and E8 domain in laminin which are responsible for spreading are differently masked by WGA, (iv) the binding of WGA to laminin may impair cell spreading by steric hindrance. 相似文献

The locomotion of murine myoblasts over the extracellular matrix components laminin and fibronectin was analyzed using quantitative videomicroscopy, and the organization of the cytoskeleton was observed in parallel immunofluorescence studies. Cells plated on the laminin-nidogen complex locomoted twice as fast as on laminin alone. The main form of translocation on laminin was a jerky cycle of prolonged lamellipod extension followed by rapid (approximately 200- less than 500 microh h-1) movement of the cell body into the extended lamellipod. The locomotion-stimulating activity of laminin resides in the elastase digestion fragment E8, part of the laminin long arm, while the E1-4 fragment containing the three short arms is inactive. Myoblasts moved poorly over fibronectin irrespective of whether high, intermediate, or low coating concentrations were used (approximately 5,000- approximately 10 fmol cm-2). In contrast, the locomotory responses both to laminin and to E8 peaked sharply at coating concentrations approximately 20-50 fmol cm-2 and decreased at higher concentrations. This response corresponds to that expected for a haptotactic stimulant. When cells locomoted over a mixed substrate of laminin and fibronectin, the fibronectin effects appeared to predominate. The cytoskeleton has been implicated in many cellular motile processes. Within 6 h on fibronectin many cells expressed vinculin-containing focal contacts, elaborated stress fibers and had periodically organized alpha actinin, whereas on laminin, most cells showed diffuse vinculin and alpha actinin and a fine meshlike actin cytoskeleton. We conclude that the poor locomotion of cells over fibronectin is because of the cytoskeletal stabilization it induces. 相似文献

Antibody to integrin alpha 6 subunit specifically inhibits cell-binding to laminin fragment 8 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
A large number of cell lines which attach and spread on laminin show a comparable binding either to both laminin fragments P1 and E8 or exclusively to E8. Adhesion to fragment E8 was with one exception completely inhibited by a monoclonal antibody to the alpha 6 integrin subunit, indicating that VLA-6 or a related structure is the major cellular receptor for laminin. It is not involved in fragment P1 adhesion. Synthetic peptides possessing RGD or YIGSR sequences were without inhibitory activity for alpha 6-mediated adhesion to fragment E8. 相似文献

Ligand affinity chromatography was used to identify receptors on platelets and two adherent cell lines, OV-CAR-4 and HBL-100, for the E8 fragment of murine laminin. A complex of two polypeptides (140 and 110 kDa nonreduced) was bound by the E8 affinity columns from all three cell types and was eluted with EDTA. This heterodimeric complex was identified as the alpha 6 beta 1 integrin by immunoprecipitation with specific antibodies against either the alpha 6 or the beta 1 subunit. The alpha 6 beta 1 integrin did not bind to an affinity column containing fragment P1 originating from a different part of murine laminin which, however, bound the alpha IIb beta 3 integrin from platelets. Furthermore, in immunofluorescence staining, the alpha 6 beta 1 integrin localizes in focal contacts of OVCAR-4 cells attached to laminin and E8 but not to fibronectin substrates. These results, combined with previous antibody inhibition studies, unequivocally identify the alpha 6 beta 1 integrin as a specific receptor for fragment E8. Affinity chromatography of OVCAR-4 and HBL-100 cells on a large pepsin fragment of laminin from human placenta yielded integrin alpha 3 beta 1. When alpha 3 beta 1 was removed from lysates of OVCAR-4 cells by preclearing with an alpha 3-specific monoclonal antibody, alpha 6 beta 1 was able to bind to human laminin as well. Integrin alpha 6 beta 1 on platelets which do not express alpha 3 beta 1 binds directly to human laminin. These results indicate that both alpha 3 beta 1 and alpha 6 beta 1 can act as receptors for human laminin and may interfere by steric hindrance. The alpha 6 beta 4 complex, which is strongly expressed on HBL-100 cells, did not bind to either mouse laminin fragment E8 or human laminin affinity columns. 相似文献

The active migration of tumor cells through extracellular matrices has been proposed to play a role in certain aspects of metastasis. Metastatic tumor cells migrate in vitro in response to substratum-bound adhesive glycoproteins such as fibronectin. The present studies use affinity-purified proteolytic fragments of fibronectin to determine the nature of adhesion- and/or motility-promoting domains within the protein. Two distinct fragments were identified with cell adhesion-promoting activities. By a number of criteria, the adhesive activity promoted by these two fragments was distinct. One fragment, a 75-kD tryptic fragment purified by monoclonal antibody chromatography, promoted the adhesion, spreading, and haptotactic motility of melanoma cells. Experiments using a synthetic cell attachment peptide in solution indicated that at least part of the attachment activity exhibited by the 75-kD fragment is mediated by the sequence arg-gly-asp-ser. It was not possible to demonstrate migration-stimulating activity using a small (11.5 kD) peptic fragment containing this sequence (Pierschbacher, M.D., E. G. Hayman, and E. Ruoslahti, 1981, Cell, 26:259-267) suggesting that another cell-binding activity within the 75 kD fragment distinct from arg-gly-asp-ser might be required for motility. The second fragment that stimulated melanoma adhesion was a 33-kD tryptic/catheptic carboxyl-terminal heparin-binding fragment, which is localized to the A chain of fibronectin. This fragment promotes adhesion and spreading but not the motility of these cells. Melanoma adhesion to this heparin-binding fragment was sensitive to the effects of cycloheximide, which contrasted adhesion to the haptotaxis-promoting fragment. Importantly, these studies illustrate that haptotaxis in response to fibronectin is not due to simple adhesion gradients of this protein. The results are discussed in light of a model for multiple distinct cell surface constituents mediating cell adhesion and motility on fibronectin. 相似文献

A number of cell surface receptors bind to distinct laminin domains, thereby mediating laminin's diverse biological activities. Cell surface beta 1,4-galactosyltransferase (GalTase) functions as one of these laminin receptors, facilitating mesenchymal cell migration and PC12 cell neurite outgrowth on laminin. In this study, the GalTase binding site within laminin was identified as the E8 fragment by assaying purified fragments and by immunoprecipitating and immunoblotting galactosylated laminin using E8-reactive antibodies. Compared with intact laminin and other laminin fragments, E8 possessed the highest GalTase binding activity, using both membrane-bound and solubilized GalTase. More significantly, the neurite-promoting activity of fragment E8 was shown to be dependent upon its interaction with GalTase. Pregalactosylating purified E8 eliminated subsequent GalTase binding and consequently inhibited neurite initiation; parallel studies on laminin fragments E1-4 or E1 failed to affect neurite outgrowth. Furthermore, anti-GalTase IgG inhibited neurite initiation on purified E8 substrates; control IgG had no effect. These results localize the predominant GalTase binding domain in laminin to fragment E8 and demonstrate that the neurite-promoting activity of E8 is dependent upon its interaction with GalTase. 相似文献

A recently described procedure of reduction and carboxymethylation followed by heparin-Sepharose chromatography [Arumugham et al. (1988) Connect. Tissue Res. 18, 135-147] was used to characterize high-affinity heparin binding fragments of the laminin "A" chain. Two laminin fragments of Mr 53K and 43K selectively bound to the heparin-Sepharose column from the chymotrypsin digest of laminin, indicating that these fragments originate from the "A" chain. Without reduction and carboxymethylation but in the presence of 2.0 M urea, the heparin-Sepharose-bound material from the chymotrypsin laminin digest contains all the attachment-promoting activity for normal mouse mammary epithelial cells. The reduced 200-kDa intact three short arm fragment, fragments of Mr 70K-160K obtained either from laminin or from the reduced 200-kDa three short arm fragment, and the 53-kDa heparin binding fragment were all inactive in promoting the adhesion of mouse mammary epithelial cells. The mammary epithelial cell adhesion and spreading properties of laminin are associated with the high-affinity heparin binding 43-kDa fragment. The mammary epithelial cells attach to the 43-kDa fragment substrate and synthesize laminin, collagen type IV, and desmoplankins I and II as are the cells attached to laminin substrate and to the cells grown on tissue culture dishes. The biologically active 43-kDa fragment is generated from laminin, but not from the three short arm fragment. These results suggest that normal mouse mammary epithelial cells interact with laminin through a single site which is present in the 43-kDa heparin binding fragment located on the long arm of the "A" chain. 相似文献

The involvement of integrins in mediating interaction of cells to well-characterized proteolytic fragments (P1, E3, and E8) of laminin was assessed by antibody blocking studies. Cell adhesion to fragment P1 was affected by mAbs against the integrin beta 1 and beta 3 subunits and furthermore could be prevented completely by a synthetic peptide containing the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence. Because the beta 3 antibody-sensitive cell lines expressed the vitronectin receptor (alpha v beta 3) at high levels, the involvement of this receptor in cell adhesion to P1 is strongly suggested. Integrin-mediated cell adhesion to E3 is of low affinity and was inhibited by antibodies against the integrin beta 1 subunit. In contrast, adhesion of some cell types to E3 was not or only partially sensitive to inhibition by anti-integrin subunit antibodies. Cell adhesion to E8 was blocked completed by integrin alpha 6 or beta 1 antibodies. The alpha 6-specific antibody did not inhibit cell adhesion to E3 or P1. Furthermore, the antibody only blocked adhesion to laminin of those cells that adhered exclusively to the E8 fragment. In addition, expression of alpha 6 beta 1 was closely correlated with the ability of cells to bind to the E8 fragment of laminin. These results indicate that the alpha 6 beta 1 integrin is a specific receptor for the E8 fragment of laminin. Many cell types expressed, instead of or in addition to alpha 6 beta 1 the recently described integrin alpha 6 beta 4. Although the ligand of alpha 6 beta 4 was not identified, it must be different from that of alpha 6 beta 1, because cells that express alpha 6 beta 4, but not alpha 6 beta 1, do not adhere to E8, and cell adhesion to E8 was specifically blocked by beta 1 specific antibodies. In conclusion, the data indicate that distinct integrin receptors belonging to the beta 1 or beta 3 subfamily are involved in adhesion of cells to the various laminin fragments. Adhesion to E3 may also be brought about by other receptor molecules, possibly proteoglycans, not belonging to the integrin family. 相似文献

Nerve growth factor induces increased expression of a laminin-binding integrin in rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cells exposed to nerve growth factor differentiate as sympathetic neurons and extend neurites on laminin and to a much lesser extent on fibronectin. Analysis of laminin fragments indicated that neurite outgrowth occurs mainly on fragment P1, corresponding to the center of the cross, and only poorly on fragment E8, a long arm structure that is active with other neuronal cells. Integrin antibodies prevented adhesion and neurite sprouting of these cells on laminin, fragment P1, and fibronectin. By affinity chromatography we isolated an integrin-type receptor for laminin consisting of two subunits with molecular massess of 180 and 135 kDa. The latter is recognized by an antiserum to integrin beta 1 subunit. The bound laminin receptor could be displaced by EDTA, but not by Arg-Gly-Asp or Tyr-Ile-Gly-Ser-Arg peptides. Affinity chromatography on laminin fragments showed that the 180/135 kDa receptor binds to P1. The expression of the 180-kDa alpha subunit of the laminin receptor at the cell surface was increased 10-fold after NGF treatment. The effect of NGF is specific since the amount of a 150-kDa fibronectin-binding integrin alpha subunit remained unchanged. Moreover, the increased expression of the 180/135 kDa receptor at the cell surface corresponded to a selective increase in cell adhesion to laminin and to fragment P1. The 180/135-kDa complex is thus an integrin-type receptor for laminin whose expression and binding specificity correlates with the capacity of NGF-induced PC12 cells to extend neurites on laminin. 相似文献

The plasma membrane of murine erythro-leukemia (MEL) cells contains a 140-kD protein that binds specifically to fibronectin. A 125I-labeled 140-kD protein from surface-labeled uninduced MEL cells was specifically bound by an affinity matrix that contained the 115-kD cell binding fragment of fibronectin, and specifically eluted by a synthetic peptide that has cell attachment-promoting activity. The loss of this protein during erythroid differentiation was correlated with loss of cellular adhesion to fibronectin. Both MEL cells and reticulocytes attached to the same site on fibronectin as do fibroblasts since adhesion of erythroid cells to fibronectin was specifically blocked by a monoclonal antibody directed against the cell-binding fragment of fibronectin and by a synthetic peptide containing the Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser sequence found in the cell-binding fragment of fibronectin. Erythroid cells attached specifically to surfaces coated either with the 115-kD cell-binding fragment of fibronectin or with the synthetic peptide-albumin complex. Thus, the erythroid 140-kD protein exhibits several properties in common with those described for the fibronectin receptor of fibroblasts. We propose that loss or modification of this protein at the cell surface is responsible for the loss of cellular adhesion to fibronectin during erythroid differentiation. 相似文献

Ng-CAM is a cell adhesion molecule mediating neuron-glia and neuron-neuron adhesion via different binding mechanisms. While its binding can be homophilic as demonstrated by the self-aggregation of Ng-CAM coated beads (Covaspheres), Ng-CAM has also been shown to bind to glia by a heterophilic mechanism. In the present study, we found that the extent of Ng-CAM Covasphere aggregation was strongly diminished in the presence of the extracellular matrix glycoprotein laminin. When proteolytic fragments of laminin were tested, the P1' fragment (obtained from the short arms by pepsin treatment) was found to inhibit aggregation of Ng-CAM-Covaspheres while the elastase fragments E3 and E8 (from the long arm) were ineffective. To provide other means of analyzing interactions between laminin and Ng-CAM, the two proteins were covalently linked to differently fluorescing Covaspheres and tested for coaggregation. Laminin-Covaspheres coaggregated with Ng-CAM-Covaspheres, and this binding was inhibited both by anti-Ng-CAM and by anti-laminin antibodies. Covaspheres coated with other proteins including BSA and fibronectin did not coaggregate with Ng-CAM-Covaspheres. Moreover, using a solid phase binding assay, we found that 125I-labeled Ng-CAM bound to laminin and to Ng-CAM but not to fibronectin. The results suggest that regions in the short arms of laminin can bind to Ng-CAM. To test whether Ng-CAM present on neurons could be involved in binding to laminin, adhesion of neurons to substrates coated with various proteins was tested in the presence of specific antibodies. Anti-Ng-CAM Fab' fragments inhibited neuronal binding to laminin but not binding to fibronectin. The combined results open the possibility that Ng-CAM on the surface of neurons may mediate binding to laminin in vivo, and that interactions with laminin can modulate homophilic Ng-CAM binding. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to determine the roles of individual alpha/beta 1 integrin heterodimers in promoting cellular interactions with the different attachment-promoting domains of laminin (LN). To do this, antibodies to the integrin beta 1 subunit or to specific integrin alpha subunits were tested for effects on cell attachment to LN, to elastase fragments E1-4 and E1, derived from the short arms and core of LN's cruciform structure, and to fragment E8 derived from the long arm of this structure. The human JAR choriocarcinoma cells used in this study attached to LN and to fragments E1 and E8. Attachment to E1-4 required a much higher substrate coating concentration, suggesting that it is a poor substrate for JAR cell attachment. The ability of cells to attach to different LN domains suggested the presence of more than one LN receptor. These multiple LN receptors were shown to be beta 1 integrin heterodimers because antibodies to the integrin beta 1 subunit inhibited attachment of JAR cells to LN and its three fragments. To identify the individual integrin alpha/beta 1 heterodimers that mediate interactions with these LN domains, mAbs specific for individual beta 1 heterodimers in human cells were used to study JAR cell interactions with LN and its fragments. An anti-alpha 6/beta 1-specific mAb, GoH3, virtually eliminated cell attachment to E8 and partially inhibited attachment to E1 and intact LN. Thus the major alpha 6/beta 1 attachment domain is present in fragment E8. An alpha 1/beta 1-specific mAb (S2G3) strongly inhibited cell attachment to collagen IV and partially inhibited JAR attachment to LN fragment E1. Thus, the alpha 1/beta 1 heterodimer is a dual receptor for collagen IV and LN, interacting with LN at a site in fragment E1. In combination, the anti-alpha 1- and anti-alpha 6-specific antibodies completely inhibited JAR cell attachment to LN and fragment E1. Thus, the alpha 1/beta 1 and alpha 6/beta 1 integrin heterodimers each function as LN receptors and act together to mediate the interactions of human JAR choriocarcinoma cells with LN. 相似文献

Domains of laminin with growth-factor activity 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
Laminin and fragments (1, 1-4) containing the inner rod-like segments from its short arms, which consist of cysteine-rich, "EGF-like" repeats, stimulated thymidine incorporation in cultured cells possessing EGF receptors but had no effect on a cell line lacking this receptor. The response was comparable to that of EGF concerning effective concentrations, magnitude, time dependence, and synergistic enhancement by insulin. Other fragments (4 and 8) were inactive. Laminin and its active fragments could not compete with the binding of EGF to cells. There was no correlation between growth promotion and attachment of cells to a high affinity binding site present on laminin fragment 8. The data indicate that mitogenic effects induced by laminin and EGF proceed in some steps via related pathways and that different domains of laminin are involved in growth promotion and in adhesion and spreading of cells. 相似文献

The molecular interactions of laminin with several tumor cell lines and skin fibroblasts were investigated by radioligand binding studies and cell attachment assays using laminin, the laminin-nidogen complex, and laminin fragments as substrates and also domain-specific antibodies as inhibitors of cell attachment. The majority of cells showed a dual binding pattern for fragments 1 and 8 which originate from short-arm or long-arm structures of laminin, respectively. Both of these fragments in solution bind to suspended cells with high affinity (KD = 1-10 nM), with the receptor numbers for each fragment depending on the cell type. Competition studies and independent variation of receptor numbers demonstrated that the cell-binding structures on each fragment are different, implicating the existence of two distinct cellular receptors for laminin. The ability of these fragments to act as substrates for cell adhesion correlated with the presence of high affinity binding sites on the cells. However, only antibodies to fragment 8 were able to block cell adhesion to laminin, despite the presence of binding sites for fragment 1. A few cells had very low numbers of high affinity receptors for either fragment 1 or 8. The latter cell type was used to demonstrate that complex formation between laminin and nidogen, which binds to fragment 1 structures, reduces the potential of laminin for cell binding. 相似文献

Rat monoclonal antibodies were raised against fragment E3 of the mouse Engelbreth-Holm-Swarm (EHS) tumor laminin and selected according to their exclusive reaction with laminin A chain by immunoblotting and staining pattern in embryonic kidneys by immunofluorescence. Immunochemical studies of nine purified antibodies showed a comparable reaction with unfragmented laminin and fragment E3 but no cross-reaction with several other, unrelated laminin fragments including the major cell-binding fragment E8. Reduction or pepsin digestion of fragment E3 reduced or abolished antibody binding indicating that most of the epitopes involved are conformation dependent and do not include carbohydrates. They are, however, not identical as shown by different reactivities after proteolytic or chemical cleavage of E3. Four of the antibodies were highly active in inhibiting cell adhesion of the teratocarcinoma cell line F9 and the Schwannoma cell line RN22 on fragment E3 (IC50 approximately 1 microgram/ml), while the others were distinctly less active. No inhibition was observed for cell adhesion on unfragmented laminin, consistent with previous findings that this is largely mediated by binding of fragment E8 to alpha 6 beta 1 integrin. A distinct correlation was observed between cell adhesion inhibition and the inhibition of heparansulfate proteoglycan and heparin binding to fragment E3. Since heparin is not very efficient in inhibiting cell adhesion, it indicates that heparin- and cell-binding sites on fragment E3 are in close proximity but not identical. Two of the antibodies also showed partial inhibition of kidney tubule formation in organ culture of embryonic kidney mesenchyme while the other antibodies were inactive. It suggests some but probably minor involvement of the fragment E3 structure of laminin in this developmental process. 相似文献
