The ectoenzyme 5'-nucleotidase purified from chicken gizzard is shown to specifically interact with laminin and fibronectin, components of the extracellular matrix, by a number of different techniques: (i) cosedimentation with laminin by sucrose gradient centrifugation; (ii) affinity adsorption to both laminin- and fibronectin-Sepharose 4-B; (iii) specific binding to both laminin and fibronectin dotted onto cellulose filters; and (iv) monoclonal antibodies against 5'-nucleotidase are shown to interfere with the interaction of 5'-nucleotidase with laminin and fibronectin. For all the techniques employed, the interactions were found to be specific, since 5'-nucleotidase did not bind to unrelated proteins such as bovine serum albumin or to monomeric actin. The interaction of purified chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase could be demonstrated for the hydrophobic enzyme solubilized in detergent and after its reconstitution into artificial phospholipid vesicles. The affinity adsorption experiments indicate that reconstituted enzyme binds more strongly to both laminin and fibronectin. The 5'-nucleotidase employed in this study is anchored to the plasma membrane by a glycan-phosphatidylinositol linker. After treatment with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, the enzyme is transformed into a hydrophilic form, for which interactions with laminin and fibronectin could also be demonstrated by the dot-blot technique. Thus controlled cleavage of the phosphatidylinositol linker of 5'-nucleotidase could enable cells to rapidly alter their adhesiveness to certain components of the extracellular matrix.  相似文献

Previous studies have shown that 5'-nucleotidase, an ectoenzyme from chicken gizzard, interacts specifically with laminin and fibronectin, two glycoproteins of the extracellular matrix. Recently, we demonstrated that 5'-nucleotidase was involved in the spreading of chick embryo fibroblast on laminin. In the present communication, we report that a monoclonal antibody (CG37) raised-directed against 5'-nucleotidase inhibited the spreading of chick embryo myoblasts on laminin after their initial attachment to the substrate. Furthermore, monoclonal antibody CG37 specifically eluted 5'-nucleotidase from immobilized laminin and thus enabled its isolation from other myoblast laminin-binding proteins.  相似文献

Polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies raised against chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase were tested in adhesion assays of embryonic chicken fibroblasts (CEF) for their ability to interfere with the adhesion process of these cells on either laminin or fibronectin substrata. The initial attachment process of CEF on fibronectin and laminin substrata was not influenced by preincubating these cells with antibodies against chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase. However, the subsequent spreading process of these cells was found to be inhibited for at least 2 h on a laminin substratum. This effect was obtained with a polyclonal antibody as well as with one from 12 monoclonal antibodies raised against the native enzyme purified from chicken gizzard. In vitro assays demonstrated a competition of laminin and this monoclonal antibody for the binding site on purified 5'-nucleotidase. Spreading-arrested and rounded CEF do not develop prominent intracellular stress-fibers like control cells, instead they seem to concentrate their available actin in areas of presumptive initial contact with the laminin substratum.  相似文献

5'-Nucleotidase from chicken gizzard smooth muscle was purified to homogeneity and used as immunogen for generating monoclonal antibodies. From about 150 positive clones nine IgG producing hybridoma cell lines have been selected for further characterization and antibody preparation. The resulting antibodies bind 5'-nucleotidase from chicken smooth muscle, chicken skeletal muscle, and chicken heart muscle but not the enzyme from chicken liver or rat liver. It could clearly be demonstrated that the nine antibodies recognize different antigenic determinants. Four of these antibodies are strong inhibitors of the AMPase activity of 5'-nucleotidase. One antibody is a weak inhibitor and four other antibodies have no effect on its enzymic activity. One of the monoclonal antibodies was used for immunoaffinity purification of 5'-nucleotidase from chicken heart muscle and chicken skeletal muscle. Pure and active enzymes could be isolated from detergent extracts in one step with a 10 to 20-fold higher yield compared to classical purification procedures. The subcellular distribution of 5'-nucleotidase in chicken gizzard was investigated using indirect immunofluorescence. We found a staining of the plasma membrane of smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells by all of the nine antibodies with variations in the staining intensity.  相似文献

Four mouse monoclonal antibodies (PTN63, PTN108, PTN124, PTN514) against the ecto-5'-nucleotidase purified from a human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line (PaTu II) have been raised and characterized. All four monoclonal antibodies recognize the protein moiety of the glycosylated ecto-5'-nucleotidase. In competition assays it was demonstrated that three of the antibodies (PTN63, PTN108, PTN514) recognize different epitopes within the protein moiety. Furthermore, PTN108, PTN124, and PTN514 reduced the 5'-nucleotidase AMPase activity in contrast to PTN63 having no inhibitory effect. The antibodies show no cross-reactivity with ecto-5'-nucleotidases from rat liver, bull seminal plasma, chicken gizzard and human peripheral blood cells. When assayed by indirect immunofluorescence the antibodies react with the plasma membrane of human pancreatic tumor cells with varying staining intensity. Immunocytochemistry on paraffin sections of normal human pancreas revealed a prominent staining of the pancreatic duct cells. No staining of the acinar and islet cells could be detected. Thus, 5'-nucleotidase is a marker enzyme for pancreatic duct cells and can be used to determine the origin of pancreatic tumor cells. PTN63 reduced the attachment to fibronectin substratum of a human pancreatic adenocarcinoma tumor cell line possessing a high amount of plasma membrane bound ecto-5'-nucleotidase, but had no effect on a cell line lacking the membrane bound AMPase. In contrast, PTN108 and PTN514, which inhibit the AMPase activity, exhibited no influence on the adhesion of human pancreatic tumor cells to fibronectin substratum.  相似文献

The myoblast cell surface activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase was stimulated by a laminin substrate, whereas fibronectin and gelatin did not increase the AMPase activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase. This increase was related to a higher expression of ecto-5′-nucleotidase on the surface of cells seeded on a laminin substrate, but without the mobilization of an intracellular pool of enzyme. Furthermore, laminin and its fragments E′1 and E8 modified the AMPase activity of the ecto-5′-nucleotidase purified from chicken striated muscle and reconstituted in liposomes. Over the range of concentrations used, intact laminin and its fragment E8, consisting of the distal half of the long arm, stimulated the AMPase activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase. By contrast, the large fragment derived from the short arms, designated E′1, inhibited the AMPase activity. Furthermore, the monoclonal anti-ecto-5′-nucleotidase antibody, CG37, abolished the stimulatory effect of fragment E8 on the AMPase activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase but did not reverse the inhibitory effect of fragment E′1. In conclusion, laminin stimulates the AMPase activity of ecto-5′-nucleotidase by two mechanisms: inducing the expression of ecto-5′-nucleotidase to the cell surface and direct modulation of the enzymatic activity.  相似文献

The smooth muscle cells of chicken gizzard harbor the ectoenzyme 5'-nucleotidase. The purified enzyme was reconstituted into 3H-labeled proteoliposomes which were used as a model to study the association of a membrane protein with fibronectin. We demonstrated that the binding process between proteoliposomes and fibronectin has the qualities of a receptor-ligand interaction, i.e., is saturable and specific. In contrast to the association of fibronectin with integrins, the interaction with 5'-nucleotidase does not require divalent metal ions. Synthetic peptides containing the RGD-sequence or a monoclonal antibody interfering with binding of other receptors to the cell-binding domain of fibronectin did not abolish the interaction with 5'-nucleotidase. This indicates that the RGDS-sequence does not represent the major contact site for the AMPase and that the 5'-nucleotidase belongs to a separate class of fibronectin receptors with distinct properties as compared to the integrins.  相似文献

Chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase represents an ectoenzyme which is linked to the plasma membrane via a phosphatidylinositol glycan. We have characterized the possible domain-like organization of 5'-nucleotidase by limited proteolysis. A hydrophobic proteolytic fragment carrying the intact C-terminus, as well as two major hydrophilic products, were identified. We developed procedures for specific radiolabelling of the active center of 5'-nucleotidase. This allowed us to locate the catalytic site within hydrophilic fragments obtained after limited proteolysis. We demonstrate that removal of N-linked carbohydrate chains increases the sensitivity of 5'-nucleotidase to proteolytic attack, indicating that sugar moieties protect against proteolysis. 5'-Nucleotidase represents a binding protein for components of the extracellular matrix. The interaction between 5'-nucleotidase and the laminin/nidogen complex unmasked proteolytic cleavage sites in the C-terminal portion of the enzyme. This resulted in the specific production of a hydrophilic form of 5'-nucleotidase. In summary, we have further characterized chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase: (1) the protein is organized into two domain-like structures, (2) the N-terminal domain harbors the active center; (3) N-linked carbohydrates protect the protein against proteolytic degradation; (4) interaction with components of the extracellular matrix alters the conformation of 5'-nucleotidase.  相似文献

We have analysed the membrane anchorage of plasma-membrane 5'-nucleotidase, an ectoenzyme which can mediate binding to components of the extracellular matrix. We demonstrated that the purified enzyme obtained from chicken gizzard and a human pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell line were both completely transformed into a hydrophilic form by treatment with phospholipases C and D, cleaving glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). These data indicate the presence of a glycolipid linker employed for membrane anchoring of the 5'-nucleotidase obtained from both sources. Incubation of plasma membranes under identical conditions revealed that about half of the AMPase activity was resistant to GPI-hydrolysing phospholipases. Investigation of the enzymic properties of purified chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase revealed only minor changes after removal of the phosphatidylinositol linker. However, cleavage of the membrane anchor resulted in an increased sensitivity towards inhibition by concanavalin A. After tissue fractionation, chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase could be obtained as either a membrane-bound or a soluble protein; the latter is suspected to be released from the plasma membrane by endogenous phospholipases. Higher-molecular-mass proteins immuno-cross-reactive with the purified chicken gizzard 5'-nucleotidase were detected as both soluble and membrane-bound forms.  相似文献

The 68 kDa laminin-binding protein purified from chicken skeletal muscle and the ectoenzyme 5'-nucleotidase from chicken gizzard are both able to interact with laminin. They were both shown to possess a nearly identical amino acid composition. The 79 kDa glycosylated form of 5'-nucleotidase can be transformed into an enzymatically active form by treatment with endoglycosidase F (Endo F). Deglycosylated (Endo F-treated) 5'-nucleotidase exhibits an apparent molecular mass of 68 kDa. Using immunological and finger-printing techniques, both proteins were analysed to determine their structural relatedness. The results obtained indicate that both proteins are not identical but may posses a few common peptides of yet unknown sequence and length.  相似文献

Neurite outgrowth factor (NOF), an extracellular matrix glycoprotein of 700 kilodaltons (kDa), promoted neurite outgrowth from cultured ciliary ganglion (CG) neurons of chicken embryo. A fraction solubilized with Nonidet P-40 of chicken gizzard muscle membranes inhibited the neurite-promoting activity of NOF in a dose-dependent manner, but not that of laminin. Binding of CG neurons to the substratum and their survival were not affected by the extract. The inhibitory activity of the extract was abolished by treatment with trypsin or heat. The molecular size was determined to be about 82 kDa by ligand blotting. The active component was partially purified by column chromatography. It is suggested that this molecule interacts with the domain of NOF responsible for its neurite-promoting activity and may modulate NOF activity during development in vivo.  相似文献

In the chicken, three tenascin variants have been characterized that are generated by alternative splicing of 3 of its 11 fibronectin type III repeats. Using monoclonal antibodies that react with common regions versus extra repeats of tenascin, we could distinguish and separate tenascin variants and investigate their interaction with fibronectin using multiple experimental procedures. Interestingly, in all assays used the smallest tenascin variant bound more strongly to fibronectin than the larger ones. These biochemical data were paralleled by the observation that in chick embryo fibroblast cultures only the smallest form of tenascin could be detected in the fibronectin-rich extracellular matrix network laid down by the cells. Furthermore, each tissue present in adult chicken gizzard contained a distinct set of tenascin variants. Those tissues particularly rich in extracellular matrix, such as the tendon, contained the smallest tenascin only. Intermediate-sized tenascin was present in smooth muscle, whereas the largest form was exclusively detectable underneath the epithelial lining of the villi. Thus it appears that cell type-specific forms of tenascin exist that are appropriate for the functional requirements of the respective extracellular matrices.  相似文献

Summary The mesenchymes of the two avian stomachs, the proventriculus (glandular stomach) and the gizzard (muscular stomach), exert different inductive influences on stomach epithelial morphogenesis and cytodifferentiation. To search for a molecular difference between these two mesenchymes, we have produced monoclonal antibodies directed against chick proventriculi and gizzards and have screened those that differently recognized proventricular and gizzard mesenchymes. Finally, we obtained one monoclonal antibody, T95, and characterized it immunohistochemically. T95 characteristically stains the mesenchymal region just under the gizzard epithelium from 6 days of incubation onward to about 10 days of incubation, while it stains proventricular mesenchyme only weakly during these stages. We also examined immunohistochemically the distribution of well-known extracellular matrix molecules, such as fibronectin, laminin and tenascin, and none of them showed the same localization as T95 antigen in proventricular and gizzard mesenchymes. These results indicate that T95 will be an interesting marker which distinguishes the proventricular and gizzard mesenchymes, at the time when they have different inductive ability.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies recognizing laminin, heparan sulfate proteoglycan, fibronectin, and two apparently novel connective tissue components have been used to examine the organization of extracellular matrix of skeletal muscle in vivo and in vitro. Four of the five monoclonal antibodies are described for the first time here. Immunocytochemical experiments with frozen-sectioned muscle demonstrated that both the heparan sulfate proteoglycan and laminin exhibited staining patterns identical to that expected for components of the basal lamina. In contrast, the remaining matrix constituents were detected in all regions of muscle connective tissue: the endomysium, perimysium, and epimysium. Embryonic muscle cells developing in culture elaborated an extracellular matrix, each antigen exhibiting a unique distribution. Of particular interest was the organization of extracellular matrix on myotubes: the build-up of matrix components was most apparent in plaques overlying clusters of an integral membrane protein, the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). The heparan sulfate proteoglycan was concentrated at virtually all AChR clusters and showed a remarkable level of congruence with receptor organization; laminin was detected at 70-95% of AChR clusters but often was not completely co-distributed with AChR within the cluster; fibronectin and the two other extracellular matrix antigens occurred at approximately 20, 8, and 2% of the AChR clusters, respectively, and showed little or no congruence with AChR. From observations on the distribution of extracellular matrix components in tissue cultured fibroblasts and myogenic cells, several ideas about the organization of extracellular matrix are suggested. (a) Congruence between AChR clusters and heparan sulfate proteoglycan suggests the existence of some linkage between the two molecules, possibly important for regulation of AChR distribution within the muscle membrane. (b) The qualitatively different patterns of extracellular matrix organization over myotubes and fibroblasts suggest that each of these cell types uses somewhat different means to regulate the assembly of extracellular matrix components within its domain. (c) The limited co-distribution of different components within the extracellular matrix in vitro and the selective immune precipitation of each antigen from conditioned medium suggest that each extracellular matrix component is secreted in a form that is not complexed with other matrix constituents.  相似文献

Immunofluorescent labeling for fibronectin was largely excluded from sites of closest contact between spreading chicken gizzard fibroblasts and the substratum. This was observed by double immunofluorescent labeling of fixed cells for fibronectin and vinculin, a smooth muscle intracellular protein that is specifically associated with focal adhesion plaques, in conjunction with interference-reflection microscopy. When the cells were plated on a fibronectin-coated substratum they adhered to its surface and rapidly spread on it. The immunofluorescent labeling for fibronectin in those cultures (after fixation and triton permeabilization) was usually absent from the newly formed, vinculin-containing focal adhesion plaques. We have found, however, that the accessibility to the cell-substrate gap at the focal adhesion plaques is limited and therefore a more direct approach was adopted. We have found that cells spreading on a substrate coated with rhodamine-labeled fibronectin progressively removed the underlying protein from the substrate. The removal of fibronectin involved at least two distinct mechanisms. Part of the substrate-associated fibronectin was removed from small areas and displaced toward the cell center. The arrowhead-shaped areas from which fibronectin was removed often coincided with vinculin-rich focal contacts. We observed, however, many areas where focal contacts were found over unperturbed fibronectin carpet, as well as fibronectin-free areas with no overlapping focal contacts. The possibilities that fibronectin is actively displaced from areas of cell-substrate contact, that the focal adhesion plaques are transiently associated with these areas and their implications on the dynamics of cell spreading and locomotion are discussed. The second route of fibronectin removal from the substrate was endocytosis. The rhodamine-labeled fibronectin was found in the cells in a partial or transient association with clathrin-containing structures.  相似文献

Extensive remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) occurs in inflammatory tissues. The celiac lesion in the small intestine is characterized by inflammation accompanied by profound morphological alterations. We used immunohistochemistry to determine the distribution of laminin, fibronectin, and tenascin isoforms in small intestinal biopsies of untreated patients with celiac disease. In normal mucosa, the distribution of laminin isoforms defines three epithelial basement membrane (BM) zones. We found that the organization of these zones was maintained in the celiac mucosa. Thus, components of laminin-5 (alpha3 and beta3) were found in the surface epithelial BM, laminin alpha2 chain was found selectively at crypt bottoms, and laminin alpha5 chain was the sole alpha-type chain in middle crypt BMs. Likewise, the distribution of fibronectin and tenascin resembled that of the normal gut. The organization of pericryptal fibroblasts and lamina propria smooth muscle strands, as defined by immunostaining for alpha-smooth muscle actin, also remained unchanged in the celiac mucosa. Unexpectedly, major ECM changes were not detected in the celiac lesion.  相似文献

The juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA) is a complex structure containing several components: the vessels, the extraglomerular mesangium and the distal tubule. These structures include cellular elements and an extracellular matrix (ECM). Collagenous (type IV collagen) and noncollagenous components of the basement membranes were studied. The localization of type IV collagen and of two extracellular glycoproteins (laminin and fibronectin) was investigated using immunofluorescent and immunoperoxidase labelled antibodies. Type IV collagen and laminin have the same localization on the JGA basement membranes. On the other hand, fibronectin is limited to the entrance of the glomerular stalk. On electron microscopy, type IV collagen is found in the basement membrane while fibronectin is restricted to certain areas of the extracellular matrix. These findings confirm data concerning the distribution of these three components in basement membranes and allow a better understanding of the histoarchitecture of the juxtaglomerular apparatus.  相似文献

Injection of chicken gizzard actin into BALB/c mice resulted in the isolation of a smooth muscle-specific monoclonal antibody designated CGA7. When assayed on methanol-Carnoy's fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue, it bound to smooth muscle cells and myoepithelial cells, but failed to decorate striated muscle, endothelium, connective tissue, epithelium, or nerve. CGA7 recognized microfilament bundles in early passage cultures of rat aortic smooth muscle cells and human leiomyosarcoma cells but did not react with human fibroblasts. In Western blot experiments, CGA7 detected actin from chicken gizzard and monkey ileum, but not skeletal muscle or fibroblast actin. Immunoblots performed on two-dimensional gels demonstrated that CGA7 recognizes gamma-actin from chicken gizzard and alpha- and gamma-actin from rat colon muscularis. This antibody was an excellent tissue-specific smooth muscle marker.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies were isolated from mice immunized with chicken gizzard desmin. Antibodies reacting with desmin on immunoblots and selectively decorating chicken and rat intestinal smooth muscle as well as the Z-line in striated muscle, were selected for this study. Based on their staining pattern on cryostat sections of chicken and rat cerebellum, spleen, kidney, aorta and femoral artery, monoclonal supernatants could be divided in three groups: (i) antibodies decorating astrocytes and vascular smooth muscle; (ii) antibodies decorating only vascular smooth muscle; (iii) antibodies decorating only astrocytes. Antibodies in group (i) and (iii) also stained GFA-negative Bergmann glia in chicken cerebellum. It is proposed that desmin may vary depending on the histological localization.  相似文献

Summary The distribution of several extracellular matrix macromolecules was investigated at the myotendinous junction of adult chicken gastrocnemius muscle. Localization using monoclonal antibodies specific for 3 basal lamina components (type IV collagen, laminin, and a basement membrane form of heparan sulfate proteoglycan) showed strong fluorescent staining of the myotendinous junction for heparan sulfate proteoglycan and laminin, but not for type IV collagen. In addition, a strong fluorescent stain was observed at the myotendinous junction using a monoclonal antibody against the subunit of the chicken integrin complex (antibody JG 22). Neither fibronectin nor tenascin were concentrated at the myotendinous junction, but instead were present in a fibrillar staining pattern throughout the connective tissue which was closely associated with the myotendinous junction. Tenascin also gave bright fluorescent staining of tendon, but no detectable staining of the perimysium or endomysium. Type I collagen was observed throughout the tendon and in the perimysium, but only faintly in the endomysium. In contrast, type III collagen was present brightly in the endomysium and in the perimysium, but could not be detected in the tendon except when associated with blood vessels and in the epitendineum, which stained intensely. Type VI collagen was found throughout the tendon and in all connective tissue partitions of skeletal muscle. The results indicate that one or more molecules of the integrin family may play an important role in the attachment of muscle to the tendon. This interaction does not appear to involve extensive binding to fibronectin or tenascin, but may involve laminin and heparan sulfate proteoglycan.  相似文献
