Early in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis, the blood-brain barrier is compromised, which leads to deposition of the plasma proteins fibronectin and vitronectin in cerebral parenchyma. In light of our previous finding that microglial activation in vitro is strongly promoted by fibronectin and vitronectin, we set out to examine the possibility that modulation of microglial activation by fibronectin or vitronectin is an important regulatory mechanism in vivo. In an experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis mouse model of demyelination, total brain levels of fibronectin and vitronectin were strongly increased and there was a close relationship between fibronectin and vitronectin deposition, microglial activation, and microglial expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9. In murine cell culture, flow cytometry for MHC class I and gelatin zymography revealed that microglial activation and expression of pro-matrix metalloproteinase-9 were significantly increased by fibronectin and vitronectin. Function-blocking studies showed that the influence of fibronectin and vitronectin was mediated by the alpha(5)beta(1) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins, respectively. Taken together, this work suggests that fibronectin and vitronectin deposition during demyelinating disease is an important influence on microglial activation state. Furthermore, it provides the first evidence that the alpha(5)beta(1) and alpha(v)beta(5) integrins are important mediators of microglial activation. 相似文献

We showed previously that blood vessel maturation in the CNS is associated with a developmental switch in brain capillary endothelial cells (BCEC), from fibronectin signalling during angiogenesis to laminin signalling in the adult. To investigate the functional significance of this switch, we have examined the response of BCEC to different extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. This showed that BCEC proliferation was significantly promoted by fibronectin (28.2 +/- 4.0%) and by vitronectin (14.8 +/- 2.1%) compared with uncoated glass (7.2 +/- 0.7%), while BCEC survival was significantly promoted by fibronectin (1130 +/- 131 cells), vitronectin (830 +/- 63 cells), collagen IV (703 +/- 77 cells) and laminin (680 +/- 34 cells) compared with the uncoated glass (367 +/- 48 cells). Biochemical studies showed that BCEC express a limited repertoire of integrins, including the beta1 integrins, alpha3beta1, alpha5beta1 and alpha6beta1, and the alphavbeta3 integrin. Function-blocking studies showed that the response to fibronectin was mediated equally by the alpha5beta1 and alphavbeta3 integrins. Analysis of signalling pathways revealed that fibronectin stimulated activation of the p44/p42 MAP kinase signalling pathway and pharmacological inhibitors of this pathway blocked BCEC proliferation on fibronectin. Taken together, these findings show that fibronectin exerts a strong angiogenic influence on endothelial cells (EC) in the CNS, and that this is mediated through the alpha5beta1 and alphavbeta3 integrins via MAP kinase signalling. In addition to a fundamental role in development, these findings may also have implications in pathological conditions of the CNS where fibronectin is re-expressed. 相似文献

Chondrocyte integrin expression and function 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is an "information rich" environment and interactions between the chondrocyte and ECM regulate many biological processes important to cartilage homeostasis and repair including cell attachment, growth, differentiation, and survival. The integrin family of cell surface receptors appears to play a major role in mediating cell-matrix interactions that are important in regulating these processes. Chondrocytes have been found to express several members of the integrin family which can serve as receptors for fibronectin (alpha 5 beta 1), types II and VI collagen (alpha 1 beta 1, alpha 2 beta 1, alpha 10 beta 1), laminin (alpha 6 beta 1), and vitronectin and osteopontin (alpha V beta 3). Integrin expression can be regulated by growth factors including IGF-I and TGF-beta. By providing a link between the ECM and the cytoskeleton, integrins may be important transducers of mechanical stimuli. Integrin binding stimulates intracellular signaling which can affect gene expression and regulate chondrocyte function. Further studies are needed to more clearly define the role of integrins in cartilage. 相似文献

Integrin dynamics and matrix assembly: tensin-dependent translocation of alpha(5)beta(1) integrins promotes early fibronectin fibrillogenesis 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16

Fibronectin matrix assembly is a multistep, integrin-dependent process. To investigate the role of integrin dynamics in fibronectin fibrillogenesis, we developed an antibody-chasing technique for simultaneous tracking of two integrin populations by different antibodies. We established that whereas the vitronectin receptor alpha(v)beta(3) remains within focal contacts, the fibronectin receptor alpha(5)beta(1) translocates from focal contacts into and along extracellular matrix (ECM) contacts. This escalator-like translocation occurs relative to the focal contacts at 6.5 +/- 0.7 microm/h and is independent of cell migration. It is induced by ligation of alpha(5)beta(1) integrins and depends on interactions with a functional actin cytoskeleton and vitronectin receptor ligation. During cell spreading, translocation of ligand-occupied alpha(5)beta(1) integrins away from focal contacts and along bundles of actin filaments generates ECM contacts. Tensin is a primary cytoskeletal component of these ECM contacts, and a novel dominant-negative inhibitor of tensin blocked ECM contact formation, integrin translocation, and fibronectin fibrillogenesis without affecting focal contacts. We propose that translocating alpha(5)beta(1) integrins induce initial fibronectin fibrillogenesis by transmitting cytoskeleton-generated tension to extracellular fibronectin molecules. Blocking this integrin translocation by a variety of treatments prevents the formation of ECM contacts and fibronectin fibrillogenesis. These studies identify a localized, directional, integrin translocation mechanism for matrix assembly. 相似文献

Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) induction of keratinocyte attachment and migration on provisional and basement membrane proteins was examined. KGF-treated keratinocytes showed increased attachment to collagen types I and IV and fibronectin, but, not to laminin-1, vitronectin, or tenascin. This increase was time- and dose-dependent. Increase in attachment occurred with 2 10 microg/ml of ECM proteins. This KGF-stimulated cell attachment was beta1 integrin-dependent but was not associated with stimulation of the cell surface expression nor affinity (activity) of the collagen integrin receptor (alpha2beta1) nor the fibronectin integrin receptors (alpha5beta1 or alphav). At the basal layer of KGF-treated cells significant accumulation of beta1 integrins was found at the leading edges, and actin stress fibers colocalized with beta1. KGF also induced migratory phenotype and stimulated keratinocyte migration on both fibronectin and collagen types I and IV but not on laminin-1, vitronectin nor tenascin. The results suggest that in addition to its proliferation promoting activity. KGF is able to modulate keratinocyte adhesion and migration on collagen and fibronectin. Our data suggest that KGF induced integrin avidity (clustering), a signaling event, which is not dependent on the alteration of cell surface integrin numbers. 相似文献

Regulation of cell adhesion receptors by transforming growth factor-beta. Regulation of vitronectin receptor and LFA-1 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
We have examined the ability of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) to regulate the expression of members of the alpha beta 2 and alpha beta 3 families of integrins. TGF-beta 1 elevates the expression of vitronectin receptors (alpha v beta 3 integrin) in all cells examined including WI-38 human lung fibroblasts, 3T3-L1 mouse fibroblasts, and MG-63 human osteogenic sarcoma cells. TGF-beta 1 action increases the level of mRNA and the synthesis of vitronectin receptor subunits with t1/2 o 3-4 h and 6 h, respectively. TGF-beta 1 up-regulates expression of the intercellular adhesion receptor, LFA-1 (alpha L beta 2), in THP-1 human monocytic leukemia cells by increasing the synthesis of alpha L subunit but not beta 2 subunit. The increase in alpha L synthesis and assembly into LFA-1 complexes induced by TGF-beta 1 occurs in parallel with elevated fibronectin receptor synthesis in THP-1 cells. These responses to TGF-beta 1 are lost upon phorbol ester-induced differentiation of THP-1 cells into the macrophage phenotype. The results suggest a role of TGF-beta in the regulation of cell-matrix interactions mediated by vitronectin receptors and cell-cell interactions mediated by LFA-1 in the immune system. 相似文献

The effects of oxidative stress on integrin-mediated cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) and related apoptosis were investigated using the EA.hy926 endothelial cells treated (or not) with two oxidants: the hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase system (HX/XO) or the tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BHP) which both increased cell apoptosis. Cell adhesion onto vitronectin (Vn) and fibronectin (Fn) was increased at low concentrations of HX/XO (up to 5 mU/ml) or t-BHP (up to 125 microM) and prevented ROS-induced apoptosis. Flow cytometry analysis of integrin expression showed that the expression of integrin alphav and alpha5 subunits was, respectively, increased and decreased. Cell adhesion inhibition experiments using function-blocking monoclonal antibodies against integrin subunits indicated that alphavbeta1 and alphavbeta3 integrins were involved in adhesion of cells to Vn, and alphavbeta3 integrin played a major role in oxidant-treated cells. For adhesion to Fn, alpha5beta1 and alphavbeta1 integrins were required for oxidant-treated cells. Taken together, the results suggest that reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced either by HX/XO or t-BHP could affect expression and/or activation of specific integrins in the interaction of EA.hy926 cells with ECM. 相似文献

The molecular mechanism underlying the promotion of wound healing by TGF-beta 1 is incompletely understood. We report that TGF-beta 1 regulates the regenerative/migratory phenotype of normal human keratinocytes by modulating their integrin receptor repertoire. In growing keratinocyte colonies but not in fully stratified cultured epidermis, TGF-beta 1: (a) strongly upregulates the expression of the fibronectin receptor alpha 5 beta 1, the vitronectin receptor alpha v beta 5, and the collagen receptor alpha 2 beta 1 by differentially modulating the synthesis of their alpha and beta subunits; (b) downregulates the multifunctional alpha 3 beta 1 heterodimer; (c) induces the de novo expression and surface exposure of the alpha v beta 6 fibronectin receptor; (d) stimulates keratinocyte migration toward fibronectin and vitronectin; (e) induces a marked perturbation of the general mechanism of polarized domain sorting of both beta 1 and beta 4 dimers; and (f) causes a pericellular redistribution of alpha v beta 5. These data suggest that alpha 5 beta 1, alpha v beta 6, and alpha v beta 5, not routinely used by keratinocytes resting on an intact basement membrane, act as "emergency" receptors, and uncover at least one of the molecular mechanisms responsible for the peculiar integrin expression in healing human wounds. Indeed, TGF-beta 1 reproduces the integrin expression pattern of keratinocytes located at the injury site, particularly of cells in the migrating epithelial tongue at the leading edge of the wound. Since these keratinocytes are inhibited in their proliferative capacity, these data might account for the apparent paradox of a TGF-beta 1-dependent stimulation of epidermal wound healing associated with a growth inhibitory effect on epithelial cells. 相似文献

Cell adhesion is dependent on many factors, including the repertoire of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and their receptors, e.g. integrins, synthesized by the cell, the composition of the ECM adsorbed to the surface, and the intrinsic chemistry of the surface. Factors that govern bone cell, i.e. osteoblast, adhesion and ECM elaboration significantly influence its re-modeling into mature bone, and ultimately its ability to integrate with biomaterials used for orthopedic prostheses. In this study, we have investigated how treatment with bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2), a member of the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily that promotes ectopic bone formation, modulates the organization and expression of osteoblastic cell proteins. Specifically, we analyzed how BMP-2 treatment affects cytoskeletal components, ECM, and alpha 5 and beta 1 integrin receptor subunits in osteoblastic cells plated on Ti6A14V, a titanium alloy widely used for orthopedic implants that interacts with bone cells in vitro and in vivo. Osteoblastic cells were pre-treated with BMP-2 for 12 h prior to plating; BMP-2 treatment stimulated adhesion and proliferation of osteoblastic cells and this adhesive advantage was reflected in enhanced long-term matrix mineralization in the BMP-2 pretreated cultures. Confocal laser scanning microscopic analysis of BMP-2 treated cells showed that enhanced cytoskeletal organization and focal contact formation occurred. These changes were accompanied by a concomitant increase in the spatial organization of fibronectin, whereas vitronectin, collagen type I, osteopontin, and osteocalcin showed little change. The changes in ECM organization correlated with increased fibronectin, alpha 5 and beta 1 integrin subunit, and focal adhesion kinase (p125FAK) expression, as well as increased p125FAK phosphorylation. By confocal microscopy, the alpha 5 integrin subunit was more concentrated in lamellipodia after BMP-2 treatment. These results demonstrate that BMP-2 significantly altered osteoblastic cytoskeletal and ECM organization and enhanced expression of fibronectin and of specific integrin receptor subunits, with concomitant changes in the levels and phosphorylation of p125FAK. These effects may contribute to downstream cellular responses important for bone cell function, and growth. 相似文献

Expression of alphav, alpha4, alpha5 and beta3 integrin subunits, fibronectin and vitronectin in goat peri-implantation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Integrins are glycoprotein heterodimers located in the cell membranes that stimulate intercellular adhesion and act as extracellular matrix (ECM) protein receptors. Although integrins have been detected in the implantation sites of various species, little is known about their participation in ruminant non-invasive placentation. The objective of this study was the detection of alphav, alpha4, alpha5, beta1 and beta3 integrin subunits and of two of their ligands, fibronectin and vitronectin, to determine their participation in the caprine peri-implantation process. On Day 21 post-coitum (pc), endometrial epithelium and trophoblastic cells showed an intense alphav and beta3 integrin subunits expression and moderate staining for alpha4 and alpha5. On Day 23 pc, integrin expression decreased noticeably and only a weak staining of alpha4 and beta3 integrin subunits were observed. No beta1 integrin subunit expression was detected on either of the days studied. Fibronectin (FN) expression in trophectodermic and endometrial epithelium was weak or moderate on the days studied while vitronectin (VN) expression in the same tissues was moderate or strong on Day 21 pc but decreased on Day 23 pc. These results suggest that alphavbeta3 integrin, alpha4 and alpha5 subunits, VN and FN are expressed in caprine endometrium and blastocyst and may play a role in the cascade of the implantation process. 相似文献

beta 1 integrin containing complexes have been implicated as the primary adhesion structures in many lymphocyte extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions. However, many B lymphocytes lack surface expression of the beta 1 subunit, implying that this subpopulation of lymphoid cells must employ alternate adhesion structures if they are to maintain an interactive capacity with ECM. An examination of the adherence properties of the beta 1 integrin-negative B cell line JY indicated that these cells exhibit little or no basal adherence to any of the ECM components examined. However, these cells could be induced to adhere to the ECM components fibronectin, laminin, and vitronectin following treatment with PMA. Blocking studies with monoclonal antibodies indicated the alpha v beta 3 integrin complex was involved in the attachment to each of these ligands. However, the adherence to fibronectin displayed a complex pattern of inhibition suggesting the involvement of other ECM receptors. The utilization of the alpha v beta 3 complex was not unique to the JY cell line. Other B cell lines were observed to employ alpha v beta 3, and these lines similarly lacked expression of beta 1 integrin. These results indicate that alpha v beta 3 can act as a lymphoid ECM-adhesion structure which may provide an alternative means for lymphocytes to interact with ECM. Furthermore, these studies provide evidence for the presence of lymphoid-associated alpha v beta 3 integrins with regulatable activity, which contrasts with the constitutive adhesive potential of these complexes when present on other cell types. 相似文献

Rapid expression and activation of MMP-2 and MMP-9 upon exposure of human breast cancer cells (MCF-7) to fibronectin in serum free medium 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Interactions between tumour cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) strongly influence tumour development, affecting cell survival, proliferation and migration. Many of these interactions are mediated through a family of cell surface receptors named integrins. Fibronectin and its integrin receptors play important roles in tumour development. The alpha5beta 1 integrin interacts with the central cell adhesive region of fibronectin and requires both the RGD and synergy sites for maximal binding. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc dependent endopeptidases. They are capable of digesting the different components of the ECM and basement membrane. The ECM gives structural support to cells and plays a central role in cell adhesion, differentiation, proliferation and migration. Binding of ECM to integrins modulates expression and activity of the different MMPs. Our experimental findings demonstrate that cultivation of human breast cancer cells, MCF-7, in serum free medium in the presence of fibronectin upregulates the activity of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Blocking of alpha5beta 1 integrin with anti-alpha5 monoclonal antibody inhibits the fibronectin-induced MMP activation response appreciably. This strongly indicates alpha5beta 1 mediated signalling events in activation of MMP-2 and MMP-9. Phosphorylation of FAK and PI-3 kinase and the nuclear translocation of ERK and NF-kappaB upon fibronectin binding demonstrate possible participation of the FAK/PI-3K/ERK signalling pathways in the regulation of MMP-2 activity. 相似文献

The migratory behaviour of malignant gliomas relies on the interaction of integrins with extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Transforming growth factor-beta(1) (TGF-beta(1)) potently stimulates glioma cell motility whereas TGF-beta(2) is known for its immunosuppressive properties. Here, we show that both TGF-beta(1) and TGF-beta(2) promote migration of glioma cells. In parallel, TGF-beta(1) and TGF-beta(2) induce alpha(V) and beta(3) intergrin mRNA expression and enhance cell surface expression of alpha(V)beta(3) integrin. TGF-beta-mediated promotion of migration is abrogated by echistatin, a Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide antagonist of alpha(V)beta(3) integrin, and by a neutralizing anti-alpha(V)beta(3) integrin antibody. Taken together, we report a novel mechanism by which TGF-beta modulates cell ECM interactions and promotes glioma cell motility. 相似文献

We investigated in a colon adenocarcinoma cell line, the exclusive role of extracellular matrix (ECM) components in the absence of soluble factors regarding the integrin clustering processes, and their implication in cell adhesion, spreading and organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Caco-2 cells were shown to express at the plasma membrane 11 integrins, some of which (e.g. alpha3beta1, alpha5beta1, alpha6beta1/beta4, alpha8beta1 and alpha(v)beta1/beta5/beta6) were identified for the first time in this cell line. Cell adhesion and spreading processes were governed essentially by lamellipodium, the regulation of which was shown to be induced by two types of integrin clustering processes mediated by ECM proteins alone. During these phenomena, alpha2beta1, alpha(v)beta6 and alpha6beta1 integrins, the Caco-2 cell specific receptors of type IV collagen, fibronectin and laminin, respectively, were clustered in small focal complexes (point contacts), whereas alpha(v)beta5, the vitronectin receptor in this cell line, was aggregated in focal adhesions. The two levels of integrin clustering induced only F-actin cortical web formation organized in thin radial and/or circular filaments. We conclude thus that ECM components per se through their action on integrin clustering are involved in cell adhesion, cortical actin cytoskeleton organization and cell spreading. 相似文献

TNFalpha-induced apoptosis and integrin switching in human extravillous trophoblast cell line 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Differentiation of extravillous trophoblast cells (EVT) to an invasive phenotype plays an essential role in establishing and maintaining feto-placental organization during human pregnancy. A switch in integrin expression occurs during this differentiation and is accompanied by changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Alteration of EVT behavior is also modulated by cytokines. To investigate the molecular interactions involved in the EVT differentiation, we examined the effects of cytokines and ECM on the human EVT cell line, TCL1 cells. We found that tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) induced apoptosis in TCL1 cells but not in JEG3 cells derived from choriocarcinoma while the addition of interleukin-1beta, leukemia inhibitory factor, or transforming growth factor had no effect on TCL1 cells. This apoptosis was suppressed when TCL1 cells were seeded on fibronectin (Fn), collagen type I (C1), collagen type IV (C4), or laminin (Ln). Wortmannin, a specific PI3 kinase inhibitor, inhibited this suppression. Spreading assays and adhesion blocking assays indicated that TCL1 cells express integrin-alpha5 and -alpha6 and beta1 and beta4 subunits. Adhesion on Fn is mediated by alpha5beta1, and adhesion on C1, C4, or Ln is mediated by alpha6beta1 integrins. TNFalpha suppressed alpha6 integrin expression and enhanced alpha1 integrin expression in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, aggregation of beta1 subunits on C4 was detected after addition of TNFalpha. Taken together, these results suggest that TNFalpha and ECM, through activation of PI3 kinase mediated by beta1 integrin signaling, might collaboratively regulate differentiation of trophoblast cells through integrin signaling in establishing and maintaining successful pregnancy. 相似文献

Integrins and angiogenesis: a sticky business 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11
From an evolutionary point of view, the development of a cardiovascular system allowed vertebrates to nourish the several organs that compose their wider multicellular organism and to survive. Acquisition of new genes encoding for extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and their cognate integrin receptors as well as secreted pro- and anti-angiogenic factors proved to be essential for the development of vascular networks in the vertebrate embryo. Postnatal tissue neo-vascularization plays a key role during wound healing and pathological angiogenesis as well. There is now clear evidence that building blood vessels in the embryo and in the adult organism relies upon different endothelial integrins and ECM ligands. A successful vascular development depends on fibronectin and its major receptor alpha5beta1 integrin, but not on alphavbeta3, alphavbeta5, and alpha6beta4 integrins that are instead central regulators of postnatal tumor angiogenesis. Here, endothelial alphavbeta3 elicits anti- or pro-angiogenic signals depending respectively on whether it is occupied by a soluble (e.g. type IV collagen derived tumstatin) or an insoluble (vitronectin) ECM ligand. The laminin-5 receptor alpha6beta4 integrin, expressed only by endothelial cells of mature blood vessels, controls the invasive phase of tumor angiogenesis in the adult organism. Finally, regulation of vascular morphogenesis relies upon the fine modulation of integrin activation by chemoattractant and chemorepulsive cues, such as angiogenic growth factors and semaphorins. 相似文献

Atherosclerotic plaque develops at sites of disturbed flow. We previously showed that flow activates endothelial cell integrins, which then bind to the subendothelial extracellular matrix (ECM), and, in cells on fibronectin or fibrinogen, trigger nuclear factor-kappaB activation. Additionally, fibronectin and fibrinogen are deposited into the subendothelial ECM at atherosclerosis-prone sites at early times. We now show that flow activates ECM-specific signals that establish patterns of integrin dominance. Flow induced alpha2beta1 activation in cells on collagen, but not on fibronectin or fibrinogen. Conversely, alpha5beta1 and alphavbeta3 are activated on fibronectin and fibrinogen, but not collagen. Failure of these integrins to be activated on nonpermissive ECM is because of active suppression by the integrins that are ligated. Protein kinase A is activated specifically on collagen and suppresses flow-induced alphavbeta3 activation. Alternatively, protein kinase Calpha is activated on fibronectin and mediates alpha2beta1 suppression. Thus, integrins actively cross-inhibit through specific kinase pathways. These mechanisms may determine cellular responses to complex extracellular matrices. 相似文献

Regulation of alpha5beta1 integrin conformation and function by urokinase receptor binding

Urokinase-type plasminogen activator receptors (uPARs), up-regulated during tumor progression, associate with beta1 integrins, localizing urokinase to sites of cell attachment. Binding of uPAR to the beta-propeller of alpha3beta1 empowers vitronectin adhesion by this integrin. How uPAR modifies other beta1 integrins remains unknown. Using recombinant proteins, we found uPAR directly binds alpha5beta1 and rather than blocking, renders fibronectin (Fn) binding by alpha5beta1 Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) resistant. This resulted from RGD-independent binding of alpha5beta1-uPAR to Fn type III repeats 12-15 in addition to type III repeats 9-11 bound by alpha5beta1. Suppression of endogenous uPAR by small interfering RNA in tumor cells promoted weaker, RGD-sensitive Fn adhesion and altered overall alpha5beta1 conformation. A beta1 peptide (res 224NLDSPEGGF232) that models near the known alpha-chain uPAR-binding region, or a beta1-chain Ser227Ala point mutation, abrogated effects of uPAR on alpha5beta1. Direct binding and regulation of alpha5beta1 by uPAR implies a modified "bent" integrin conformation can function in an alternative activation state with this and possibly other cis-acting membrane ligands. 相似文献

We previously reported that mouse orthologue of puromycin insensitive leucyl-specific aminopeptidase (mPILSAP) played an important role in angiogenesis by regulating the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells (ECs) (Miyashita et al., 2002. Blood 99:3241-3249). Here, we examined the mechanism as to how mPILSAP regulates the migration of ECs. Cell adhesion through integrins plays a crucial role in cell migration, and ECs use at least type-1 collagen receptor integrin alpha2beta1, fibronectin receptor alpha5beta1, and vitronectin receptors alphavbeta3 and alphavbeta5. mPILSAP antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS-ODN) or leucinethiol (LT), a leucyl-aminopeptidase inhibitor, did not affect the attachment but did significantly inhibit the spreading of cells of the murine endothelial cell line MSS31 when they were plated on vitronectin-, fibronectin-, or type-1 collagen, although they did not affect the expression of integrin alpha2, alpha5, alphav, beta1, beta3, and beta5 subunits on the cell surface. AS-ODN and LT also inhibited the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK when cells were plated on vitronectin, fibronectin, or type-1 collagen. This inhibition of cell spreading and of tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK could be negated by Mg(2+). These results suggest that mPILSAP is involved in the activation of endothelial integrins. 相似文献
