We have recently reported the attachment and spreading of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) upon substrates containing covalently grafted Arg-Glu-Asp-Val (REDV) peptide (Hubbell, J. A., Massia, S. P., Desai, N. P., and Drumheller, P. D. (1991) Bio/Technology 9, 568-572). This peptide has been reported to be the minimal active sequence within the CS5 site of the alternatively spliced type III connecting segment (IIICS) region of fibronectin, and the integrin alpha 4 beta 1 has been identified as the receptor on melanoma cells for this site. The integrin alpha 4 beta 1 has also been identified as the receptor for the CS1 site in the IIICS region on cells of neural crest origin, melanoma cells, lymphocytes, and hematopoietic stem cells. In this study, we demonstrate that this integrin also serves as a receptor on HUVECs for the peptide REDV from the CS5 site. The alpha 4 subunit was shown to be expressed upon HUVEC membranes by whole-cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Antifunctional antibodies directed against integrin subunits alpha 4 and beta 1 inhibited cell adhesion on REDV-grafted substrates, but not on RGD-grafted substrates. The alpha 4 subunit localized into fibrillar structures within spread cells on the REDV-grafted substrates, but not within spread cells on RGD-grafted substrates. Two proteins (144 and 120 kDa) were isolated from HUVEC extracts by REDV ligand affinity chromatography and were demonstrated by immunoprecipitation and Western blot to be the integrin subunits alpha 4 (144 kDa) and beta 1 (120 kDa); furthermore, the immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that the subunits formed a complex. HUVEC binding to REDV-grafted substrates was inhibited by both soluble REDV and RGD, demonstrating that adhesion was biospecific and that the REDV peptide is RGD-like. In this report we demonstrate for the first time that alpha 4 is present in the endothelial cell membrane, in contrast to previous reports by others, and that integrin alpha 4 beta 1 is the receptor for REDV-mediated adhesion to the IIICS region of region of plasma fibronectin. 相似文献

Eukaryotic cells adhere to at least two different regions of the fibronectin molecule: a central domain present in all fibronectin isoforms, and the type III connecting segment domain (IIICS), the expression of which is controlled by complex alternative splicing of precursor mRNA. Using affinity chromatography on a matrix containing a synthetic peptide ligand (CS1) representing the strongest active site within the IIICS, we have isolated the human melanoma cell receptor recognizing this region of fibronectin. The receptor is a complex of two polypeptides with subunit molecular masses of 145 and 125 kDa. This heterodimeric structure resembles that of receptors for other extracellular matrix proteins. Immunological analysis with specific antibodies identified these polypeptides as the integrin subunits alpha 4 and beta 1. In addition, antifunctional monoclonal antibodies directed against either alpha 4 or beta 1, but not against other integrin subunits, were potent inhibitors of CS1-mediated melanoma cell spreading. Furthermore, when the function of the central cell-binding domain was blocked, anti-alpha 4 and anti-beta 1 antibodies abolished spreading of A375-M cells on fibronectin, indicating that alpha 4 beta 1 is an authentic fibronectin receptor. Taken together, these results identify the human fibronectin IIICS receptor as the integrin heterodimer alpha 4 beta 1. 相似文献

Fibronectin contains at least two major domains that support cell adhesion. One is the central cell-binding domain that is recognized by a variety of cell types via the integrin alpha 5 beta 1. The second, originally identified by its ability to support melanoma cell adhesion, is located in the alternatively spliced type III connecting segment (IIICS). A dominant cell type-specific adhesion site within the IIICS has been localized to a peptide designated as CS1 comprising its amino-terminal 25 residues. The receptor for CS1 is the integrin alpha 4 beta 1. We have synthesized a variety of peptides with overlapping sequences in order to identify the minimum active amino acid sequence of this major cell adhesion site. A peptide comprising the carboxyl-terminal 8 amino acids of CS1, EILDVPST, was found to support melanoma cell spreading, while all peptides without this sequence had little or no activity. Two smaller overlapping pentapeptides, EILDV and LDVPS, were also active, whereas EILEV, containing a conservative substitution of Glu for Asp, was inactive. These data suggested that the minimum sequence for cell adhesion activity is Leu-Asp-Val, the tripeptide sequence common to both active peptides. This prediction was confirmed by the observed ability of the Leu-Asp-Val peptide itself to block spreading on fibronectin, whereas Leu-Glu-Val was inactive. Interspecies amino acid sequence comparison also supports the importance of the LDV sequence, since it is completely conserved in the IIICS regions of human, rat, bovine, and avian fibronectins. 相似文献

Identification of a novel recognition sequence for the integrin alpha 4 beta 1 in the COOH-terminal heparin-binding domain of fibronectin. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The type III connecting segment of fibronectin contains two cell binding sites, represented by the peptides CS1 and CS5, that are recognized by the integrin receptor alpha 4 beta 1. Using assays measuring the spreading of A375-SM human melanoma cells, we now report that the adhesion promoting activity of a 29 kDa protease fragment of fibronectin containing the COOH-terminal heparin-binding domain (HepII), but lacking CS1 and CS5, is completely sensitive to anti-alpha 4 and anti-beta 1 antibodies, suggesting that HepII contains a third alpha 4 beta 1-binding sequence. Examination of the primary structure of HepII revealed a sequence with homology to CS1. A 19mer peptide spanning this region (designated H1) was found to support cell spreading to the same level as the 29 kDa fragment. H1-dependent adhesion was completely sensitive to anti-alpha 4 and anti-beta 1 antibodies. When soluble peptides were tested for their ability to block cell spreading on the 29 kDa fragment, a 13mer peptide comprising the central core of H1 was found to be completely inhibitory. The active region of H1 was localized to the pentapeptide IDAPS, which is homologous to LDVPS from the active site of CS1. Taken together, these results identify a novel peptide sequence in the HepII region of fibronectin that supports alpha 4 beta 1-dependent cell adhesion. 相似文献

Identification of two distinct regions of the type III connecting segment of human plasma fibronectin that promote cell type-specific adhesion 总被引:45,自引:0,他引:45

The principal region of the human plasma fibronectin molecule mediating the adhesion of melanoma cells appears to be the alternatively spliced type III connecting segment (IIICS (Humphries, M. J., Akiyama, S. K., Komoriya, A., Olden, K., and Yamada, K. M. (1986a) J. Cell Biol., in press]. A series of overlapping synthetic peptides spanning the entire IIICS (CS peptides) were examined for their effects on B16-F10 melanoma cell adhesion to the parent fibronectin molecule. Two nonadjacent CS peptides, designated CS1 and CS5, were inhibitory. In contrast, neither inhibited fibronectin-mediated spreading of fibroblastic baby hamster kidney cells. When N-terminal cysteine derivatives of the CS peptides were conjugated to IgG by covalent cross-linking with N-succinimidyl-3(2-pyridyldithio)propionate, both the CS1 and CS5 conjugates promoted B16-F10 melanoma cell spreading. All conjugates were inactive for spreading of baby hamster kidney cells, confirming the cell type specificity of the IIICS adhesion site. Determination of the amounts of CS peptide required to support melanoma cell adhesion revealed that the activity of CS1 was only 2.4-fold lower than that of the intact fibronectin molecule. CS5 was approximately 320-fold less active than fibronectin, suggesting that the CS1 region may be the major site of interaction with the melanoma cell surface. The adhesion-promoting activities of CS1-IgG and CS5-IgG were additive as were the inhibitory activities of the free peptides for B16-F10 cell spreading on fibronectin. These findings suggest that both regions of the IIICS can function separately or together in mediating the interaction of melanoma cells with fibronectin. Since CS1 and CS5 are each found in separate alternatively spliced regions of the IIICS, it is conceivable that the adhesion-promoting activity of fibronectin for different cell types may be under complex regulation. 相似文献

In this report we have studied the mechanism of human B lymphocyte adhesion to fibronectin and to proteolytic fragments of this protein. B cells adhered to fibronectin and to a 38-kDa fragment, derived from the A chain, containing the Hep II domain and most of the type III connecting segment, IIICS, of fibronectin. Cells did not bind to an 80-kDa fragment containing the RGD adhesive sequence of fibronectin. Attachment to fibronectin or to the 38-kDa fragment was not affected by the 80-kDa fragment, the GRGDSPC synthetic peptide, or by a mAb specific for the alpha chain of the RGD-dependent fibronectin receptor, alpha 5 beta 1. However, B cell adhesion to fibronectin was inhibited by the synthetic peptides CS-1, comprising the first 25 amino acids of IIICS and B12, containing the sequence LHGPEILDVPST of CS-1 (residues 14-25). Moreover, this sequence was shown to be sufficient to induce stable cell adhesion when coated on plastic surfaces. A mAb specific for the alpha-subunit of the alpha 4 beta 1 integrin, completely inhibited B cell attachment to B12, CS-1, 38 kDa, and fibronectin coated substrata. These data clearly indicate that adhesion of B lymphocytes to fibronectin is exclusively mediated by the interaction of alpha 4 beta 1 with residues 14-25 of the IIICS region in fibronectin. Therefore this interaction constitutes an alternative pathway of adhesion to fibronectin, independent of RGD and alpha 5 beta 1. 相似文献

Fibrillins are the major glycoprotein components of microfibrils that form a template for tropoelastin during elastic fibrillogenesis. We have examined cell adhesion to assembled purified microfibrils, and its molecular basis. Human dermal fibroblasts exhibited Arg-Gly-Asp and cation-dependent adhesion to microfibrils and recombinant fibrillin-1 protein fragments. Strong integrin alpha 5 beta 1 interactions with fibrillin ligands were identified, but integrin alpha v beta 3 also contributed to cell adhesion. Fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis confirmed the presence of abundant alpha 5 beta 1 and some alpha v beta 3 receptors on these cells. Adhesion to microfibrils and to Arg-Gly-Asp containing fibrillin-1 protein fragments induced signaling events that led to cell spreading, altered cytoskeletal organization, and enhanced extracellular fibrillin-1 deposition. Differences in cell shape when plated on fibrillin or fibronectin implied substrate-specific alpha 5 beta 1-mediated cellular responses. An Arg-Gly-Asp-independent cell adhesion sequence was also identified within fibrillin-1. Adhesion and spreading of smooth muscle cells on fibrillin ligands was enhanced by antibody-induced beta1 integrin activation. A375-SM melanoma cells bound Arg-Gly-Asp-containing fibrillin-1 protein fragments mainly through alpha v beta 3, whereas HT1080 cells used mainly alpha 5 beta 1. This study has shown that fibrillin microfibrils mediate cell adhesion, that alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha v beta 3 are both important but cell-specific fibrillin-1 receptors, and that cellular interactions with fibrillin-1 influence cell behavior. 相似文献

Cellular adhesion to fibronectin (FN) can be mediated by several sequences located in different portions of the molecule. In human FN, these are: (i) the bipartite RGDS domain containing the RGDS cell-binding sequence functioning in synergy for full cellular adhesion with a second site (termed here the synergistic adhesion site) and (ii) the recently characterized CS1 and REDV adhesion sites within the alternatively-spliced type III homology-connecting segment. Using specific adhesive ligands and inhibitory probes, we have examined the role of each of these domains in the adhesion, spreading, and motility of avian neural crest cells in vitro. Both the RGDS domain and the CS1 adhesion site were found to promote attachment of neural crest cells, but only the RGDS domain supported their spreading. However, the RGDS sequence could mediate both attachment and spreading efficiently only when it was associated with the synergistic adhesion site. In migratory assays, it was found that both the RGDS domain and the CS1 site are required in association, each with functional specificity, to permit effective locomotion of neural crest cells. The REDV adhesion site was apparently not recognized by avian neural crest cells, presumably because this sequence is absent from chicken FN. Finally, it was found that recognition of both the RGDS domain and CS1 binding site by neural crest cells involved receptors belonging to the integrin family. From these results, we conclude that neural crest cells can interact with several binding sites of FN molecules, and use them for distinct functions. Our results also suggest the possibility of an instructive role for FN in the control of adhesive and migratory events during embryonic development. 相似文献

Rabbit synovial fibroblasts (RSF) express basal levels of the metalloproteinases (MMP) collagenase, stromelysin-1 and 92-kD gelatinase when plated on intact fibronectin (FN), but elevated levels when plated on either the central RGD-containing cell-binding region of FN (120FN) or antibody against the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin, suggesting that domains outside 120FN may suppress the induction of MMP (Werb, Z., P. M. Tremble, O. Behrendtsen, E. Crowley, and C.H. Damsky. 1989. J. Cell Biol. 109:877-889). We therefore attempted to reconstitute the basal signaling of intact FN by plating RSF on 120FN together with domains of FN outside this region. Large COOH-terminal fragments containing both the heparin-binding and HICS domains suppressed MMP when combined with 120FN. To map the active sequences, peptides from this region and larger fragments that did, or did not, include the CS-1 portion of IIICS were tested. Only CS-1 peptide, or larger fragments containing CS-1, suppressed MMP expression induced by 120FN. In contrast, peptide V from the heparin-binding region, shown previously to stimulate focal contact formation, further enhanced MMP expression by RSF when present on the substrate with 120FN. RSF expressed alpha 4 beta 1 integrin, the receptor for CS-1, and the anti-alpha 4 mAb blocked the ability of CS-1 to suppress MMP induction by 120FN. These results show that signals modulating MMP expression and focal contact assembly are regulated independently, and that cooperative signaling by alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha 4 beta 1 integrins plays a dominant role in regulating expression of these extracellular matrix-remodeling genes in response to FN. This work demonstrates directly the modular way in which information in the extracellular matrix is detected and processed by cell surface receptors. 相似文献

Cellular recognition and adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) has a complex molecular basis, involving both integrins and cell surface proteoglycans (PG). The current studies have used specific inhibitors of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) synthesis along with anti-alpha 4 integrin subunit monoclonal antibodies to demonstrate that human melanoma cell adhesion to an A-chain derived, 33-kD carboxyl-terminal heparin binding fragment of human plasma fibronectin (FN) involves both cell surface CSPG and alpha 4 beta 1 integrin. A direct role for cell surface CSPG in mediating melanoma cell adhesion to this FN fragment was demonstrated by the identification of a cationic synthetic peptide, termed FN-C/H-III, within the fragment. FN-C/H-III is located close to the amino terminal end of the fragment, representing residues #1721-1736 of intact FN. FN-C/H-III binds CSPG directly, can inhibit CSPG binding to the fragment, and promotes melanoma cell adhesion by a CSPG-dependent, alpha 4 beta 1 integrin-independent mechanism. A scrambled version of FN-C/H-III does not inhibit CSPG binding or cell adhesion to the fragment or to FN-C/H-III, indicating that the primary sequence of FN-C/H-III is important for its biological properties. Previous studies have identified three other synthetic peptides from within this 33-kD FN fragment that promote cell adhesion by an arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) independent mechanism. Two of these synthetic peptides (FN-C/H-I and FN-C/H-II) bind heparin and promote cell adhesion, implicating cell surface PG in mediating cellular recognition of these two peptides. Additionally, a third synthetic peptide, CS1, is located in close proximity to FN-C/H-I and FN-C/H-II and it promotes cell adhesion by an alpha 4 beta 1 integrin-dependent mechanism. In contrast to FN-C/H-III, cellular recognition of these three peptides involved contributions from both CSPG and alpha 4 integrin subunits. Of particular importance are observations demonstrating that CS1-mediated melanoma cell adhesion could be inhibited by interfering with CSPG synthesis or expression. Since CS1 does not bind CSPG, the results suggest that CSPG may modify the function and/or activity of alpha 4 beta 1 integrin on the surface of human melanoma cells. Together, these results support a model in which the PG and integrin binding sites within the 33-kD fragment may act in concert to focus these two cell adhesion receptors into close proximity on the cell surface, thereby influencing initial cellular recognition events that contribute to melanoma cell adhesion on this fragment. 相似文献

Our previous studies showed that the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin selects cysteine pair-containing RGD peptides from a phage display library based on a random hexapeptide. We have therefore searched for more selective peptides for this integrin using a larger phage display library, where heptapeptides are flanked by cysteine residues, thus making the inserts potentially cyclic. Most of the phage sequences that bound to alpha 5 beta 1 (69 of 125) contained the RGD motif. Some of the heptapeptides contained an NGR motif. As the NGR sequence occurs in the cell-binding region of the fibronectin molecule, this sequence could contribute to the specific recognition of fibronectin by alpha 5 beta 1. Selection for high affinity peptides for alpha 5 beta 1 surprisingly yielded a sequence RRETAWA that does not bear obvious resemblance to known integrin ligand sequences. The synthetic cyclic peptide GACRRETAWACGA (*CRRETAWAC*) was a potent inhibitor of alpha 5 beta 1-mediated cell attachment to fibronectin. This peptide is nearly specific for the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin, because much higher concentrations were needed to inhibit the alpha v beta 1 integrin, and there was no effect on alpha v beta 3- and alpha v beta 5-mediated cell attachment to vitronectin. The peptide also did not bind to the alpha IIb beta 3 integrin. *CRRETAWAC* appears to interact with the same or an overlapping binding site in alpha 5 beta 1 as RGD, because cell attachment to *CRRETAWAC* coated on plastic was divalent cation dependent and could be blocked by an RGD-containing peptide. These results reveal a novel binding specificity in the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin. 相似文献

Lymphoid cells recognize an alternatively spliced segment of fibronectin via the integrin receptor alpha 4 beta 1 总被引:72,自引:0,他引:72
Using purified recombinant fibronectins we show that WEHI 231 lymphoid cells spread only on fibronectin containing the alternatively spliced V region. Spreading is specifically blocked by peptides from the V25 segment (also called CS-1), which can be selectively spliced out independently of the rest of the V region. Using synthetic peptides we localize the binding site to a 10 amino acid segment that is highly conserved. Integrin alpha 4 beta 1 is a major integrin on the surfaces of these cells and binds specifically to the V25 segment with a primary specificity for the conserved 10 amino acid sequence. Antibodies to integrin alpha 4 inhibit spreading of WEHI 231 cells on V+ fibronectin. Therefore, integrin alpha 4 beta 1 is a fibronectin receptor specific for an alternatively spliced cell adhesion site and may play important roles in selective adhesion of various cell types to specific forms of fibronectin. 相似文献

The mechanisms and receptors involved in phagocytosis by nonhematopoietic cells are not well understood. The involvement of the alpha 3 beta 1 integrin in phagocytosis of the extracellular matrix by human breast cancer cells was studied. The possible role of this integrin was suggested since alpha 3 and beta 1 but not alpha 2 subunits are concentrated at membrane sites where local degradation of fluorescently labeled gelatin occurs. Strikingly, anti-alpha 3 integrin monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) stimulate the phagocytosis of fluorescently labeled gelatin films, gelatin beads, and Matrigel films in a quantitative phagocytosis assay. Stimulation of the gelatin uptake by the anti-alpha 3 mAb is dose responsive, saturable, and time dependent. Antibodies against other integrin subunits have a lower stimulatory effect (anti-beta 1) or no significant effect (anti-alpha 2, -alpha 5, -alpha 6, and -alpha v) on gelatin phagocytosis. The synthetic HGD-6 human laminin peptide that binds specifically the alpha 3 beta 1 integrin, but not the scrambled HSGD-6 control peptide, also markedly stimulates gelatin uptake in a dose-responsive way. Furthermore, the stimulatory effects of the HGD-6 peptide and the anti-alpha 3 mAb are additive, suggesting that they might promote phagocytosis in different ways. Other laminin (YIGSR, IKVAV) and fibronectin (GRGDS) peptides have no effect on gelatin phagocytosis. Immunofluorescence shows that the alpha 3 and the beta 1, but not the alpha 2 integrin subunit, concentrate into patches on the cell surface after treatment with their respective mAbs. And, both gelatin and the alpha 3 beta 1 but not the alpha 2 beta 1 integrin are cointernalized and routed to acidic vesicles such as lysosomes. In conclusion, we demonstrate that human breast cancer cells locally degrade and phagocytose the extracellular matrix and show for the first time that the alpha 3 beta 1 integrin participates in this phagocytosis. We hypothesize that the anti-alpha 3 antibodies and the laminin peptide HGD-6 activate the alpha 3 beta 1 integrin, which results in a downstream signaling cascade stimulating phagocytosis. 相似文献

Adhesion to vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 and fibronectin. Comparison of alpha 4 beta 1 (VLA-4) and alpha 4 beta 7 on the human B cell line JY. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Most mononuclear leukocytes and cell lines express the integrin alpha 4 beta 1 (VLA-4) heterodimer. In this study we have used Northern blotting and immunoprecipitation experiments to demonstrate that a B lymphoblastoid cell line (JY) expressed the integrin beta 7 subunit in association with alpha 4. These alpha 4 beta 7-positive JY cells bound poorly or not at all to VLA-4 ligands (soluble form of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (sVCAM-1) and the CS1 region of fibronectin). In contrast, a beta 1-positive variant of JY cells (selected to express a mixture of alpha 4 beta 1 and alpha 4 beta 7) bound avidly to VLA-4 ligands, and this binding was completely inhibitable by anti-alpha 4 and anti-beta 1 monoclonal antibodies. Thus, beta 1 expression appears to be a critically important component of VLA-4-mediated binding to its ligands. After either JY or JY-beta 1 cells were stimulated for 15 min with the phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, the majority of adhesion to VCAM or fibronectin remained alpha 4- and beta 1-dependent, but a low amount of adhesion to sVCAM-1 or fibronectin became alpha 4-dependent, beta 1-independent, thus suggesting a role for alpha 4 beta 7. In summary, we have found (i) that alpha 4 beta 7 makes little or no contribution to fibronectin or VCAM-1 binding on unstimulated JY cells, (ii) that alpha 4 beta 7 perhaps makes a minor contribution to ligand binding on 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate-stimulated cells, and (iii) that alpha 4 beta 1 is the functionally dominant VCAM-1 and fibronectin receptor even when expressed in relatively low amounts compared to alpha 4 beta 7. 相似文献

The integrin alpha4beta1 is involved in mediating exfiltration of leukocytes from the vasculature. It interacts with a number of proteins up-regulated during the inflammatory response including VCAM-1 and the CS-1 alternatively spliced region of fibronectin. In addition it binds the multifunctional protein osteopontin (OPN), which can act as both a cytokine and an extracellular matrix molecule. Here we map the region of human OPN that supports cell adhesion via alpha4beta1 using GST fusion proteins. We show that alpha4beta1 expressed in J6 cells interacts with intact OPN when the integrin is in a high activation state, and by deletion mapping that the alpha4beta1 binding region in OPN lies between amino acid residues 125 and 168 (aa125-168). This region contains the central RGD motif of OPN, which also interacts with integrins alphavbeta3, alphavbeta5, alphavbeta1, alpha8beta1, and alpha5beta1. Mutating the RGD motif to RAD had no effect on the interaction with alpha4beta1. To define the binding site the region incorporating aa125-168 was divided into 5 overlapping peptides expressed as GST fusion proteins. Two peptides supported adhesion via alpha4beta1, aa132-146, and aa153-168; of these only a synthetic peptide, SVVYGLR (aa162-168), derived from aa153-168 was able to inhibit alpha4beta1 binding to CS-1. These data identify the motif SVVYGLR as a novel peptide inhibitor of alpha4beta1, and the primary alpha4beta1 binding site within OPN. 相似文献

Using mAb technology (Wayner, E. A., W. G. Carter, R. Piotrowicz, and T. J. Kunicki. 1988. J. Cell Biol. 107:1881-1891), we have identified a new fibronectin receptor that is identical to the integrin receptor alpha 4 beta 1. mAbs P3E3, P4C2, and P4G9 recognized epitopes on the alpha 4 subunit and completely inhibited the adhesion of peripheral blood and cultured T lymphocytes to a 38-kD tryptic fragment of plasma fibronectin containing the carboxy-terminal Heparin II domain and part of the type III connecting segment (IIICS). The ligand in IIICS for alpha 4 beta 1 was the CS-1 region previously defined as an adhesion site for melanoma cells. The functionally defined mAbs to alpha 4 partially inhibited T lymphocyte adhesion to intact plasma fibronectin and had no effect on their attachment to an 80-kD tryptic fragment containing the RGD (arg-gly-asp) adhesion sequence. mAbs (P1D6 and P1F8) to the previously described fibronectin receptor, alpha 5 beta 1, completely inhibited T lymphocyte adhesion to the 80-kD fragment but had no effect on their attachment to the 38-kD fragment or to CS-1. Both alpha 4 beta 1 and alpha 5 beta 1 localized to focal adhesions when fibroblasts that express these receptors were grown on fibronectin-coated surfaces. These findings demonstrated a specific interaction of both receptors with fibronectin at focal contacts. In conclusion, these findings show clearly that cultured T lymphocytes use two independent receptors during attachment to fibronectin and that (a) alpha 5 beta 1 is the receptor for the RGD containing cell adhesion domain, and (b) alpha 4 beta 1 is the receptor for a carboxy-terminal cell adhesion region containing the Heparin II and IIICS domains. Furthermore, these data also show that T lymphocytes express a clear preference for a region of molecular heterogeneity in IIICS (CS-1) generated by alternative splicing of fibronectin pre-mRNA and that alpha 4 beta 1 is the receptor for this adhesion site. 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

CD47-binding sequences from the carboxyl-terminal domain of thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) are known to regulate activity of the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin (Gao, G., Lindberg, F. P., Dimitry, J. M., Brown, E. J., and Frazier, W. A. (1996) J. Cell Biol. 135, 533-544). Here we show that peptides from the type 1 repeats of TSP1 also stimulate alpha(v)beta(3) integrin function in melanoma cells. Addition of soluble peptide 246 (KRFKQDGGWSHWSPWSS) enhances spreading of A2058 melanoma cells on several alpha(v)beta(3) integrin ligands, including vitronectin, recombinant TSP1 fragments containing the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence, and native TSP1. This activity requires the Trp residues and is independent of CD36-binding sequences in the type 1 repeats. Recombinant type 1 repeats expressed as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein also enhance spreading on vitronectin and TSP1. Activation of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin by the soluble peptide 246 stimulates organization of F-actin and increases tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. In contrast, direct adhesion of melanoma cells on immobilized peptide 246 inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. Stimulation of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin function by the type 1 repeat peptide differs from that induced by CD47-binding TSP1 peptides in that heparan sulfate proteoglycans are required and pertussis toxin does not inhibit the former activity. Thus, the type 1 repeats contain a second sequence of TSP1 that can enhance alpha(v)beta(3) integrin signaling, and these two sequences stimulate recognition of both vitronectin and TSP1 by the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. 相似文献

Co-signaling events between integrins and cell surface proteoglycans play a critical role in the organization of the cytoskeleton and adhesion forces of cells. These processes, which appear to be responsible for maintaining intraocular pressure in the human eye, involve a novel cooperative co-signaling pathway between alpha5beta1 and alpha4beta1 integrins and are independent of heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Human trabecular meshwork cells isolated from the eye were plated on type III 7-10 repeats of fibronectin (alpha5beta1 ligand) in the absence or presence of the heparin (Hep) II domain of fibronectin. In the absence of the Hep II domain, cells had a bipolar morphology with few focal adhesions and stress fibers. The addition of the Hep II domain increased cell spreading and the numbers of focal adhesions and stress fibers. Cell spreading and stress fiber formation were not mediated by heparan sulfate proteoglycans because treatment with chlorate, heparinase, or soluble heparin did not prevent Hep II domain-mediated cell spreading. Cell spreading and stress fiber formation were mediated by alpha4beta1 integrin because soluble anti-alpha4 integrin antibodies inhibited Hep II domain-mediated cell spreading and soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (alpha4beta1 ligand)-induced cell spreading. This is the first demonstration of the Hep II domain mediating cell spreading and stress fiber formation through alpha4beta1 integrin. This novel pathway demonstrates a cooperative, rather than antagonistic, role between alpha5beta1 and alpha4beta1 integrins and suggests that interactions between the Hep II domain and alpha4beta1 integrin could modulate the strength of cytoskeleton-mediated processes in the trabecular meshwork of the human eye. 相似文献

The vitronectin receptor (alpha v beta 3) is a member of the integrin superfamily of adhesive protein receptors that mediate a wide spectrum of adhesive cellular interactions, including attachment to vitronectin, von Willebrand factor, fibrinogen, and thrombospondin. We have studied the binding of fibronectin to the purified vitronectin receptor, and the role of this receptor in the attachment of cells to fibronectin. A solid-phase microtiter assay was developed to investigate the binding properties of the vitronectin receptor. Purified alpha v beta 3 bound fibronectin with high affinity in a saturable, divalent cation- dependent manner. Binding was inhibited by soluble vitronectin, by RGD- containing peptides, and by LM609, a monoclonal antibody against the vitronectin receptor known to inhibit the binding of adhesive proteins to alpha v beta 3. Immunoinhibition experiments showed that M21 human melanoma cells, which express the fibronectin receptor, alpha 5 beta 1, as well as alpha v beta 3, used both of these integrins to attach and spread on fibronectin. In support of this finding, M21-L cells, a variant cell line that specifically lacks alpha v beta 3 but expresses alpha v beta 1, attached and spread poorly on fibronectin. In addition, alpha v beta 3 from surface-labeled M21 cells was retained, and selectively eluted by RGDS from a fibronectin affinity column. These results indicate that alpha v beta 3 acts in concert with alpha 5 beta 1 in promoting fibronectin recognition by these cells. We conclude that fibronectin binds to the alpha v beta 3 vitronectin receptor specifically and with high affinity, and that this interaction is biologically relevant in supporting cell adhesion to matrix proteins. 相似文献
