Tetraspanins (or proteins from the transmembrane 4 superfamily, TM4SF) form membrane complexes with integrin receptors and are implicated in integrin-mediated cell migration. Here we characterized cellular localization, structural composition, and signaling properties of alpha3beta1-TM4SF adhesion complexes. Double-immunofluorescence staining showed that various TM4SF proteins, including CD9, CD63, CD81, CD82, and CD151 are colocalized within dot-like structures that are particularly abundant at the cell periphery. Differential extraction in conjunction with chemical cross-linking indicated that the cell surface fraction of alpha3beta1-TM4SF protein complexes may not be directly linked to the cytoskeleton. However, in cells treated with cytochalasin B alpha3beta1-TM4SF protein complexes are relocated into intracellular vesicles suggesting that actin cytoskeleton plays an important role in the distribution of tetraspanins into adhesion structures. Talin and MARCKS are partially codistributed with TM4SF proteins, whereas vinculin is not detected within the tetraspanin-containing adhesion structures. Attachment of serum-starved cells to the immobilized anti-TM4SF mAbs induced dephosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). On the other hand, clustering of tetraspanins in cells attached to collagen enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. Furthermore, ectopic expression of CD9 in fibrosarcoma cells affected adhesion-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK, that correlated with the reorganization of the cortical actin cytoskeleton. These results show that tetraspanins can modulate integrin signaling, and point to a mechanism by which TM4SF proteins regulate cell motility.  相似文献

Transmembrane 4 L six family member 5 (TM4SF5), as a membrane glycoprotein with 4 transmembrane domains, is similar to the tetraspanins in terms of membrane topology and plays important roles in tumorigenesis and tumor metastasis. Especially, TM4SF5 appears to form a massive protein-protein complex consisting of diverse membrane proteins and/or receptors in addition to cytosolic signaling molecules to regulate their signaling activities during the pathological processes. TM4SF5 is shown to interact with integrins α2, α5, and β1, EGFR, IL6R, CD151, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and c-Src. This review focuses on the significance of the interactions with regards to TM4SF5-positive tumorigenesis and metastasis. [BMB Reports 2014; 47(9): 483-487]  相似文献

Tumor metastasis involves circulating and tumor-initiating capacities of metastatic cancer cells. Hepatic TM4SF5 promotes EMT for malignant growth and migration. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) biomarkers remain unexplored for metastatic potential throughout metastasis. Here, novel TM4SF5/CD44 interaction-mediated self-renewal and circulating tumor cell (CTC) capacities were mechanistically explored. TM4SF5-dependent sphere growth was correlated with CD133+, CD24-, ALDH activity, and a physical association between CD44 and TM4SF5. The TM4SF5/CD44 interaction activated c-Src/STAT3/ Twist1/ B mi1 signaling for spheroid formation, while disturbing the interaction, expression, or activity of any component in this signaling pathway inhibited spheroid formation. In serial xenografts of less than 5,000 cells/injection, TM4SF5-positive tumors exhibited locally-increased CD44 expression, suggesting tumor cell differentiation. TM4SF5-positive cells were identified circulating in blood 4 to 6 weeks after orthotopic liver-injection. Anti-TM4SF reagents blocked their metastasis to distal intestinal organs. Altogether, our results provide evidence that TM4SF5 promotes self-renewal and CTC properties supported by CD133+/TM4SF5+/CD44+(TM4SF5-bound)/ALDH+/ CD24- markers during HCC metastasis.

The development of liver fibrosis from chronic inflammation can involve epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Severe liver fibrosis can progress to cirrhosis, and further to hepatocellular carcinoma. Because the tetraspanin transmembrane 4 L6 family member 5 (TM4SF5) induces EMT and is highly expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma, it is of interest to investigate whether TM4SF5 expression is correlated with EMT processes during the development of fibrotic liver features. Using hepatic cells in vitro and a CCl(4) -mediated mouse liver in?vivo model, we examined whether TM4SF5 is expressed during liver fibrosis mediated by CCl(4) administration and whether treatment with anti-TM4SF5 reagent blocks the fibrotic liver features. Here, we found that TM4SF5 expression was induced by the transforming growth factor (TGF)β1 and epidermal growth factor signaling pathways in hepatocytes in vitro. In the CCl(4) -mediated mouse liver model, TM4SF5 was expressed during the liver fibrosis mediated by CCl(4) administration and correlated with α-smooth muscle actin expression, collagen I deposition, and TGFβ1 and epidermal growth factor receptor signaling activation in fibrotic septa regions. Interestingly, treatment with anti-TM4SF5 reagent blocked the TM4SF5-mediated liver fibrotic features: the formation of fibrotic septa with α-smooth muscle actin expression and collagen I deposition was attenuated by treatment with anti-TM4SF5 reagent. These results suggest that TM4SF5 expression mediated by TGFβ1 and growth factor can facilitate fibrotic processes during chronic liver injuries. TM4SF5 is thus a candidate target for prevention of liver fibrosis following chronic liver injury.  相似文献

TM4SF5 overexpressed in hepatocellular carcinoma activates focal adhesion kinase (FAK) during tumor cell migration. However, it remains unknown how TM4SF5 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells compromises with immune actions initiated by extracellular cytokines. Normal and cancerous hepatocytes with or without TM4SF5 expression were analyzed for the effects of cytokine signaling activity on TM4SF5/FAK signaling and metastatic potential. We found that interleukin-6 (IL-6) was differentially expressed in hepatocytes depending on cancerous malignancy and TM4SF5 expression. IL-6 treatment activated FAK and STAT3 and enhanced focal adhesion (FA) formation in TM4SF5-null cells, but it decreased TM4SF5-dependent FAK activity and FA formation in SNU761-TM4SF5 cells. STAT3 suppression abolished the IL-6-mediated effects in normal Chang cells, but it did not recover the TM4SF5-dependent FAK activity that was inhibited by IL-6 treatment in cancerous SNU761-TM4SF5 cells. In addition, modulation of FAK activity did not change the IL-6-mediated STAT3 activity in either the Chang or SNU761 cell system. TM4SF5 expression in SNU761 cells caused invasive extracellular matrix degradation negatively depending on IL-6/IL-6 receptor (IL-6R) signaling. Thus, it is likely that hepatic cancer cells adopt TM4SF5-dependent FAK activation and metastatic potential by lowering IL-6 expression and avoiding its immunological action through the IL-6-STAT3 pathway.  相似文献

Trafficking and function of the tetraspanin CD63   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Tetraspanins comprise a large superfamily of cell surface-associated membrane proteins characterized by four transmembrane domains. They participate in a variety of cellular processes, like cell activation, adhesion, differentiation and tumour invasion. At the cell surface, tetraspanins form networks with a wide diversity of proteins called tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs). CD63 was the first characterized tetraspanin. In addition to its presence in TEMs, CD63 is also abundantly present in late endosomes and lysosomes. CD63 at the cell surface is endocytosed via a clathrin-dependent pathway, although recent studies suggest the involvement of other pathways as well and we here present evidence for a role of caveolae in CD63 endocytosis. In late endosomes, CD63 is enriched on the intraluminal vesicles, which by specialized cells are secreted as exosomes through fusion of endosomes with the plasma membrane. The complex localization pattern of CD63 suggests that its intracellular trafficking and distribution must be tightly regulated. In this review we discuss the latest insights in CD63 trafficking and its emerging function as a transport regulator of its interaction partners. Finally, the involvement of CD63 in cancer will be discussed.  相似文献

Translocation of conventional protein kinases C (PKCs) to the plasma membrane leads to their specific association with transmembrane-4 superfamily (TM4SF; tetraspanin) proteins (CD9, CD53, CD81, CD82, and CD151), as demonstrated by reciprocal co-immunoprecipitation and covalent cross-linking experiments. Although formation and maintenance of TM4SF-PKC complexes are not dependent on integrins, TM4SF proteins can act as linker molecules, recruiting PKC into proximity with specific integrins. Previous studies showed that the extracellular large loop of TM4SF proteins determines integrin associations. In contrast, specificity for PKC association probably resides within cytoplasmic tails or the first two transmembrane domains of TM4SF proteins, as seen from studies with chimeric CD9 molecules. Consistent with a TM4SF linker function, only those integrins (alpha(3)beta(1), alpha(6)beta(1), and a chimeric "X3TC5" alpha(3) mutant) that associated strongly with tetraspanins were found in association with PKC. We propose that PKC-TM4SF-integrin structures represent a novel type of signaling complex. The simultaneous binding of TM4SF proteins to the extracellular domains of the integrin alpha(3) subunit and to intracellular PKC helps to explain why the integrin alpha3 extracellular domain is needed for both intracellular PKC recruitment and PKC-dependent phosphorylation of the alpha(3) integrin cytoplasmic tail.  相似文献

Specific spatial arrangements of proteins and lipids are central to the coordination of many biological processes. Tetraspanins have been proposed to laterally organize cellular membranes via specific associations with each other and with distinct integrins. Here, we reveal the presence of tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs) containing the tetraspanins CD9, CD63, CD81, and CD82 at the plasma membrane. Fluorescence and immunoelectron microscopic analyses document that the surface of HeLa cells is covered by several hundred TEMs, each extending over a few hundred nanometers and containing predominantly two or more tetraspanins. Further, we reveal that the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) Gag protein, which directs viral assembly and release, accumulates at surface TEMs together with the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein. TSG101 and VPS28, components of the mammalian ESCRT1 (endosomal sorting complex required for transport), which is part of the cellular extravesiculation machinery critical for HIV-1 budding, are also recruited to cell surface TEMs upon virus expression, suggesting that HIV-1 egress can be gated through these newly mapped microdomains.  相似文献

Transmembrane proteins of the tetraspanin superfamily are assembled in multimeric complexes on the cell surface. Spatial orientation of tetraspanins within these complexes may affect signaling functions of the associated transmembrane receptors (e.g. integrins, receptor-type tyrosine kinases). The structural determinants that control assembly of the tetraspanin complexes are unknown. We have found that various tetraspanins and the alpha(3) integrin subunit are palmitoylated. The stability and molecular composition of the palmitoylated alpha(3)beta(1)-tetraspanin complexes are not affected by adhesion. To assess the significance of palmitoylation in the function of the alpha(3)beta(1)-tetraspanin complexes we mapped the sites of palmitoylation for CD151. Mutation of six cysteines, Cys(11), Cys(15), Cys(79), Cys(80), Cys(242), and Cys(243) was necessary to completely abolish palmitoylation of CD151. The association of the palmitoylation-deficient mutant of CD151 (CD151Cys8) with CD81 and CD63 was markedly decreased, but the interaction of the alpha(3)beta(1)-CD151Cys8 complex with phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase was not affected. Ectopic expression of CD151Cys8 in Rat-1 cells impaired the interactions of the endogenous CD63 and CD81 with the alpha(3)beta(1) integrin. Although the expression of the palmitoylation-deficient CD151 does not change cell spreading on the extracellular matrix, the number of focal adhesions increased. Adhesion-induced phosphorylation of PKB/c-Akt is markedly increased in cells expressing a palmitoylation-deficient mutant, thereby providing direct evidence for the role of the tetraspanin microdomains in regulation of the integrin-dependent phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling pathway. In contrast, activation of FAK and ERK1/2 were not affected by the expression of CD151Cys8. Our results demonstrate that palmitoylation of tetraspanins is critical not only for the organization of the integrin-tetraspanin microdomains but also has a specific role in modulation of adhesion-dependent signaling.  相似文献

The role of transmembrane 4 superfamily (TM4SF) proteins during muscle cell fusion has not been investigated previously. Here we show that the appearance of TM4SF protein, CD9, and the formation of CD9-beta1 integrin complexes were both regulated in coordination with murine C2C12 myoblast cell differentiation. Also, anti-CD9 and anti-CD81 monoclonal antibodies substantially inhibited and delayed conversion of C2C12 cells to elongated myotubes, without affecting muscle-specific protein expression. Studies of the human myoblast-derived RD sarcoma cell line further demonstrated that TM4SF proteins have a role during muscle cell fusion. Ectopic expression of CD9 caused a four- to eightfold increase in RD cell syncytia formation, whereas anti-CD9 and anti-CD81 antibodies markedly delayed RD syncytia formation. Finally, anti-CD9 and anti-CD81 monoclonal antibodies triggered apoptotic degeneration of C2C12 cell myotubes after they were formed. In summary, TM4SF proteins such as CD9 and CD81 appear to promote muscle cell fusion and support myotube maintenance.  相似文献

Transmembrane proteins of the tetraspanin superfamily are associated with various integrins and modulate their function. We performed mutagenesis analysis to establish structural requirements for the interaction of CD151 with the alpha3beta1 integrin and with other tetraspanins. Using a panel of CD151/CD9 chimeras and CD151 deletion mutants we show that the minimal region, which confers stable (e.g. Triton X-100-resistant) association of the tetraspanin with alpha3beta1, maps within the large extracellular loop (LECL) of CD151 (the amino acid sequence between residues Leu(149) and Glu(213)). Furthermore, the substitution of 11 amino acids (residues 195-205) from this region for a corresponding sequence from CD9 LECL or point mutations of cysteines in the conserved CCG and PXXCC motifs abolish the interaction. The removal of the LECL CD151 does not affect the association of the protein with other tetraspanins (e.g. CD9, CD81, CD63, and wild-type CD151). On the other hand, the mutation of the CCG motif selectively prevents the homotypic CD151-CD151 interaction but does not influence the association of the mutagenized CD151 with other tetraspanins. These results demonstrate the differences in structural requirements for the heterotypic and homotypic tetraspanin-tetraspanin interactions. Various deletions involving the small extracellular loop and the first three transmembrane domains prevent surface expression of the CD151 mutants but do not affect the CD151-alpha3beta1 interaction. The CD151 deletion mutants are accumulated in the endoplasmic reticulum and redirected to the lysosomes. The assembly of the CD151-alpha3beta1 complex occurs early during the integrin biosynthesis and precedes the interaction of CD151 with other tetraspanins. Collectively, these data show that the incorporation of CD151 into the "tetraspanin web" can be controlled at various levels by different regions of the protein.  相似文献

The tetraspanin CD151 forms a stoichiometric complex with integrin alpha3beta1 and regulates its endocytosis. We observed that down-regulation of CD151 in various epithelial cell lines changed glycosylation of alpha3beta1. In contrast, glycosylation of other transmembrane proteins, including those associated with CD151 (e.g. alpha6beta1, CD82, CD63, and emmprin/CD147) was not affected. The detailed analysis has shown that depletion of CD151 resulted in the reduction of Fucalpha1-2Gal and bisecting GlcNAc-beta(1-->4) linkage on N-glycans of the alpha3 integrin subunit. The modulatory activity of CD151 toward alpha3beta1 was specific, because stable knockdown of three other tetraspanins (i.e. CD9, CD63, and CD81) did not affect glycosylation of the integrin. Analysis of alpha3 glycosylation in CD151-depleted breast cancer cells with reconstituted expression of various CD151 mutants has shown that a direct contact with integrin is required but not sufficient for the modulatory activity of the tetraspanin toward alpha3beta1. We also found that glycosylation of CD151 is also critical; Asn(159) --> Gln mutation in the large extracellular loop did not affect interactions of CD151 with other tetraspanins or alpha3beta1 but negated its modulatory function. Changes in the glycosylation pattern of alpha3beta1 observed in CD151-depleted cells correlated with a dramatic decrease in cell migration toward laminin-332. Migration toward fibronectin or static adhesion of cells to extracellular matrix ligands was not affected. Importantly, reconstituted expression of the wild-type CD151 but not glycosylation-deficient mutant restored the migratory potential of the cells. These results demonstrate that CD151 plays an important role in post-translation modification of alpha3beta1 integrin and strongly suggest that changes in integrin glycosylation are critical for the promigratory activity of this tetraspanin.  相似文献

Previously we established that the alpha(3)beta(1) integrin shows stable, specific, and stoichiometric association with the TM4SF (tetraspannin) protein CD151. Here we used a membrane impermeable cross-linking agent to show a direct association between extracellular domains of alpha(3)beta(1) and CD151. The alpha(3)beta(1)-CD151 association site was then mapped using chimeric alpha(6)/alpha(3) integrins and CD151/NAG2 TM4SF proteins. Complex formation required an extracellular alpha(3) site (amino acids (aa) 570-705) not previously known to be involved in specific integrin contacts with other proteins and a region (aa 186-217) within the large extracellular loop of CD151. Notably, the anti-CD151 monoclonal antibody TS151r binding epitope, previously implicated in alpha(3) integrin association, was mapped to the same region of CD151 (aa 186-217). Finally, we demonstrated that both NH(2)- and COOH-terminal domains of CD151 are located on the inside of the plasma membrane, thus confirming a long suspected model of TM4SF protein topology.  相似文献

CD81 and CD9, members of the transmembrane-4 superfamily (TM4SF; tetraspanins), form extensive complexes with other TM4SF proteins, integrins, and other proteins, especially in mild detergents. In moderately stringent Brij 96 lysis conditions, CD81 and CD9 complexes are virtually identical to each other, but clearly distinct from other TM4SF complexes. One of the most prominent proteins within CD81 and CD9 complexes is identified here as FPRP, the 133-kDa prostaglandin F(2alpha) receptor regulatory protein. FPRP, a cell-surface Ig superfamily protein, associates specifically with CD81 or with CD81 and CD9, but not with integrins or other TM4SF proteins. In contrast to other CD81- and CD9-associating proteins, FPRP associates at very high stoichiometry, with essentially 100% of cell-surface FPRP on 293 cells being CD81- and CD9-associated. Also, CD81.CD9.FPRP complexes have a discrete size (<4 x 10(6) Da) as measured by gel permeation chromatography and remain intact after disruption of cholesterol-rich membrane microdomains by methyl-beta-cyclodextrin. Although CD81 associated with both alpha(3) integrin and FPRP in 293 cells, the alpha(3)beta(1).CD81 and CD81.CD9.FPRP complexes were distinct, as determined by immunoprecipitation and immunodepletion experiments. In conclusion, our data affirm the existence of distinct TM4SF complexes with unique compositions and specifically characterize FPRP as the most robust, highly stoichiometric CD81- and/or CD9-associated protein yet described.  相似文献

As observed previously, tetraspanin palmitoylation promotes tetraspanin microdomain assembly. Here, we show that palmitoylated integrins (alpha3, alpha6, and beta4 subunits) and tetraspanins (CD9, CD81, and CD63) coexist in substantially overlapping complexes. Removal of beta4 palmitoylation sites markedly impaired cell spreading and signaling through p130Cas on laminin substrate. Also in palmitoylation-deficient beta4, secondary associations with tetraspanins (CD9, CD81, and CD63) were diminished and cell surface CD9 clustering was decreased, whereas core alpha6beta4-CD151 complex formation was unaltered. There is also a functional connection between CD9 and beta4 integrins, as evidenced by anti-CD9 antibody effects on beta4-dependent cell spreading. Notably, beta4 palmitoylation neither increased localization into "light membrane" fractions of sucrose gradients nor decreased solubility in nonionic detergents-hence it does not promote lipid raft association. Instead, palmitoylation of beta4 (and of the closely associated tetraspanin CD151) promotes CD151-alpha6beta4 incorporation into a network of secondary tetraspanin interactions (with CD9, CD81, CD63, etc.), which provides a novel framework for functional regulation.  相似文献

Here we describe an association between α3β1 integrin and transmembrane-4 superfamily (TM4SF) protein CD151. This association is maintained in relatively stringent detergents and thus is remarkably stable in comparison with previously reported integrin–TM4SF protein associations. Also, the association is highly specific (i.e., observed in vitro in absence of any other cell surface proteins), and highly stoichiometric (nearly 90% of α3β1 associated with CD151). In addition, α3β1 and CD151 appeared in parallel on many cell lines and showed nearly identical skin staining patterns. Compared with other integrins, α3β1 exhibited a considerably higher level of associated phosphatidylinositol-4-kinase (PtdIns 4-kinase) activity, most of which was removed upon immunodepletion of CD151. Specificity for CD151 and PtdIns 4-kinase association resided in the extracellular domain of α3β1, thus establishing a novel paradigm for the specific recruitment of an intracellular signaling molecule. Finally, antibodies to either CD151 or α3β1 caused a ~88–92% reduction in neutrophil motility in response to f-Met-Leu-Phe on fibronectin, suggesting an functionally important role of these complexes in cell migration.  相似文献

Overexpression of transmembrane 4 L six family member 5 (TM4SF5), a four‐transmembrane L6 family member, causes aberrant cell proliferation and angiogenesis, but the roles of TM4SF5 in migration, invasion, and tumor metastasis remain unknown. Using in vitro hepatocarcinoma cells that ectopically or endogenously express TM4SF5 and in vivo mouse systems, roles of TM4SF5 in metastatic potentials were examined. We found that TM4SF5 expression facilitated migration, invadopodia formation, MMP activation, invasion, and eventually lung metastasis in nude mice, but suppression of TM4SF5 with its shRNA blocked the effects. Altogether, TM4SF5‐mediated migration and invasion suggest that TM4SF5 may be therapeutically targeted to deal with TM4SF5‐mediated hepatocellular cancers. J. Cell.

Adherent cells in culture maintain a polarized state to support movement and intercellular interactions. Nanopodia are thin, elongated, largely F-actin-negative membrane projections in endothelial and cancer cells that can be visualized through TM4SF1 (Transmembrane-4-L-six-family-1) immunofluorescence staining. TM4SF1 clusters in 100-300 μm diameter TMED (TM4SF1 enriched microdomains) containing 3 to as many as 14 individual TM4SF1 molecules. TMED are arranged intermittently along nanopodia at a regular spacing of 1 to 3 TMED per μm and firmly anchor nanopodia to matrix. This enables nanopodia to extend more than 100 μm from the leading front or trailing rear of polarized endothelial or tumor cells, and causes membrane residues to be left behind on matrix when the cell moves away. TMED and nanopodia have been overlooked because of their extreme fragility and sensitivity to temperature. Routine washing and fixation disrupt the structure. Nanopodia are preserved by direct fixation in paraformaldehyde (PFA) at 37 °C, followed by brief exposure to 0.01% Triton X-100 before staining. Nanopodia open new vistas in cell biology: they promise to reshape our understanding of how cells sense their environment, detect and identify other cells at a distance, initiate intercellular interactions at close contact, and of the signaling mechanisms involved in movement, proliferation, and cell-cell communications. The methods that are developed for studying TM4SF1-derived nanopodia may be useful for studies of nanopodia that form in other cell types through the agency of classic tetraspanins, notably the ubiquitously expressed CD9, CD81, and CD151.  相似文献

The basement membrane protein laminin-5 supports tumor cell adhesion and motility and is implicated at multiple steps of the metastatic cascade. Tetraspanin CD151 engages in lateral, cell surface complexes with both of the major laminin-5 receptors, integrins alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4. To determine the role of CD151 in tumor cell responses to laminin-5, we used retroviral RNA interference to efficiently silence CD151 expression in epidermal carcinoma cells. Near total loss of CD151 had no effect on steady state cell surface expression of alpha3beta1, alpha6beta4, or other integrins with which CD151 associates. However, CD151-silenced carcinoma cells displayed markedly impaired motility on laminin-5, accompanied by unusually persistent lateral and trailing edge adhesive contacts. CD151 silencing disrupted alpha3beta1 integrin association with tetraspanin-enriched microdomains, reduced the bulk detergent extractability of alpha3beta1, and impaired alpha3beta1 internalization in cells migrating on laminin-5. Both alpha3beta1- and alpha6beta4-dependent cell adhesion to laminin-5 were also impaired in CD151-silenced cells. Reexpressing CD151 in CD151-silenced cells reversed the adhesion and motility defects. Finally, loss of CD151 also impaired migration but not adhesion on substrates other than laminin-5. These data show that CD151 plays a critical role in tumor cell responses to laminin-5 and reveal promotion of integrin recycling as a novel potential mechanism whereby CD151 regulates tumor cell migration.  相似文献
