The alpha(v)beta(3) integrin is essential for fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-induced angiogenesis in vivo. However, the role of this integrin in FGF-2-mediated cellular responses by cultured endothelial cells is largely unknown. Cyclic RGDfV (cRGDfV) peptide is widely used to inhibit the binding of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin to vitronectin. To investigate the role of this integrin in FGF-2-mediated cellular responses, we used immortalized murine brain capillary endothelial cells, denoted IBE cells. Because IBE cells proliferate and migrate in response to FGF-2-treatment, when cultured on fibronectin-coated surface, we first examined the inhibitory activity of this peptide on the binding of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin to fibronectin as well as vitronectin. Solid phase binding assay revealed that cRGDfV peptide strongly inhibited the binding of purified alpha(v)beta(3) integrin to vitonectin- and fibronectin-coated plastic surfaces at a concentration of 50 microM. cRGDfV peptide at 50 microM inhibited spreading as well as adhesion of IBE cells on vitronectin-coated plastic surface but not on fibronectin. On fibronectin-coated substrata, cRGDfV at 50 microM attenuated FGF-2-mediated chemotaxis, but not FGF-2-induced proliferation, of IBE cells. We have previously demonstrated that mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation within focal adhesions through c-Src activity was involved in FGF-2-induced chemotaxis of IBE cells. Treatment of cells with cRGDfV peptide was associated with reduced c-Src activity without tyrosine dephosphorylation. Immunofluorescent staining showed that cRGDfV inhibited redistribution of c-Src into focal adhesions. MAPK activation by FGF-2 within focal adhesions was also attenuated in the presence of cRGDfV peptide. Our results indicated that cRGDfV peptide inhibited redistribution of c-Src into focal adhesions, leading to impaired MAPK activation within focal adhesions and motility in FGF-2-treated endothelial cells. 相似文献

Up-regulation of integrin alpha(v)beta(3) has been shown to play a key role in tumor angiogenesis and metastasis. In this study, we evaluated the role of integrin alpha(v)beta(3) in breast cancer cell resistance to ionizing irradiation (IR) and tested the anti-tumor efficacy of combining integrin alpha(v) siRNA and IR. Colonogenic survival assay, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and cell cycle analysis were carried out to determine the treatment effect of siRNA, IR, or combination of both on MDA-MB-435 cells (integrin alpha(v)beta(3)-positive). Integrin alpha(v)beta(3)-negative MCF-7 cells exert more radiosensitivity than MDA-MB-435 cells. IR up-regulates integrin alpha(v)beta(3) expression in MDA-MB-435 cells and integrin alpha(v) siRNA can effectively reduce both alpha(v) and alpha(v)beta(3) integrin expression, leading to increased radiosensitivity. Integrin alpha(v) siRNA also promotes IR-induced apoptosis and enhances IR-induced G2/M arrest in cell cycle progression. This study, with further optimization, may provide a simple and highly efficient treatment strategy for breast cancer as well as other integrin alpha(v)beta(3)-positive cancer types. 相似文献

Hic-5 is a LIM-Only member of the paxillin superfamily of focal adhesion proteins. It has been shown to regulate a range of biological processes including: senescence, tumorigenesis, steroid hormone action, integrin signaling, differentiation, and apoptosis. To better understand the roles of Hic-5 during development, we initiated a detailed analysis of Hic-5 expression and function in C(2)C(12) myoblasts, a well-established model for myogenesis. We have found that: (1) myoblasts express at least 6 distinct Hic-5 isoforms; (2) the two predominant isoforms, Hic-5alpha and Hic-5beta, are differentially expressed during myogenesis; (3) any experimentally induced change in Hic-5 expression results in a substantial increase in apoptosis during differentiation; (4) ectopic expression of Hic-5alpha is permissive to differentiation while expression of either Hic-5beta or antisense Hic-5 blocks myoblast fusion but not chemodifferentiation; (5) Hic-5 localizes to focal adhesions in C(2)C(12) myoblasts and perturbation of Hic-5 leads to defects in cell spreading; (6) alterations in Hic-5 expression interfere with the normal dynamics of laminin expression; and (7) ectopic laminin, but not fibronectin, can rescue the Hic-5-induced blockade of myoblast survival and differentiation. Our data demonstrate differential roles for individual Hic-5 isoforms during myogenesis and support the hypothesis that Hic-5 mediates these effects via integrin signaling. 相似文献

Fibronectin regulates many cellular processes, including migration, proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Previously,
we showed that squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cell aggregates escape suspension-induced, p53-mediated anoikis by engaging in
fibronectin-mediated survival signals through focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Here we report that an altered matrix, consisting
of a mutated, nonfunctional high-affinity heparin-binding domain and the V region of fibronectin (V+H−), induced anoikis in human SCC cells; this response was blocked by inhibitors of caspase-8 and caspase-3. Anoikis was mediated
by downregulation of integrin alpha v in a panel of SCC cells and was shown to be proteasome-dependent. Overexpression of
integrin alpha v or FAK inhibited the increase in caspase-3 activation and apoptosis, whereas suppression of alpha v or FAK
triggered a further significant increase in apoptosis, indicating that the apoptosis was mediated by suppression of integrin
alpha v levels and dephosphorylation of FAK. Treatment with V+H− decreased the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and 2, and direct activation of ERK by constitutively
active MEK1, an ERK kinase, increased ERK1 and ERK2 phosphorylation and inhibited the increase in apoptosis induced by V+H−. ERK acted downstream from alpha v and FAK signals, since alpha v and FAK overexpression inhibited both the decrease in ERK
phosphorylation and the increase in anoikis triggered by V+H−. These findings provide evidence that mutations in the high-affinity heparin-binding domain in association with the V region
of fibronectin, or altered fibronectin matrices, induce anoikis in human SCC cells by modulating integrin alpha v-mediated
phosphorylation of FAK and ERK. 相似文献

CD98 heavy chain (CD98hc) is expressed highly in developing human placental trophoblast. CD98hc is an amino acid transporter and is thought to function in cell fusion, adhesion, and invasion by interacting with integrins. In invasive extravillous trophoblast, alpha(v)beta(3) integrin is expressed in a temporally and spatially specific manner, which prompted us to investigate the potential role of CD98hc in signal transduction of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. Immunocytochemistry of extravillous trophoblast derived from human placenta revealed that CD98hc colocalized with alpha(v)beta(3) integrin and with alpha(v)beta(3)-associated cytoplasmic proteins including paxillin, vinculin, and focal adhesion kinase. Coimmunoprecipitation of CD98hc and its mutants revealed that the transmembrane domain of CD98hc is necessary for the association of CD98hc with alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. When CD98hc negative liver cells (FLC4) were stably transfected with CD98hc and the extracellular domain of CD98hc was cross-linked by anti-CD98 antibody, FLC4 cells binding affinity to fibronectin and cell motility increased. The anti-CD98 antibody cross-linking promoted actin stress fiber formation and activation of signal transduction downstream of RhoA GTPase, and elevated the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase, paxillin, and protein kinase B. Pretreatment of transfected FLC4 cells with specific inhibitors for alpha(v)beta(3)integrin, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and RhoA diminished these effects caused by anti-CD98 antibody cross-linking. These results suggest that notoriously invasive activity of extravillous trophoblast is mediated by CD98hc, which promotes alpha(v)beta(3) integrin-dependent signals. 相似文献

Integrins are the major family of cell adhesion receptors that mediate cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Integrin-mediated adhesion and signaling play essential roles in neural development. In this study, we have used echistatin, an RGD-containing short monomeric disintegrin, to investigate the role of integrin-mediated adhesion and signaling during retinal development in Xenopus. Application of echistatin to Xenopus retinal-derived XR1 glial cells inhibited the three stages of integrin-mediated adhesion: cell attachment, cell spreading, and formation of focal adhesions and stress fibers. XR1 cell attachment and spreading increased tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin, a focal adhesion associated protein, while echistatin significantly decreased phosphorylation levels of paxillin. Application of echistatin or beta(1) integrin function blocking antibody to the embryonic Xenopus retina disrupted retinal lamination and produced rosette structures with ectopic photoreceptors in the outer retina. These results indicate that integrin-mediated cell-ECM interactions play a critical role in cell adhesion, migration, and morphogenesis during vertebrate retinal development. 相似文献

The types of cell-matrix adhesions and the signals they transduce strongly affect the cell-phenotype. We hypothesized that cells sense and respond to the three-dimensionality of their environment, which could be modulated by nano-structures on silicon surfaces. Human foreskin fibroblasts were cultured on nano-structures with different patterns (nano-post and nano-grate) and heights for 3 days. The presence of integrin alpha(5), beta(1), beta(3), paxillin and phosphorylated FAK (pFAK) were detected by western blot and immunofluorescence. Integrin beta(3) exhibited stronger signals on nano-grates. pFAK and paxillin were observed as small dot-like patterns on the cell-periphery on nano-posts and as elongated and aligned patterns on nano-grates. Collectively, our observations highlighted the presence of focal (integrin beta(1), beta(3), pFAK, paxillin), fibrillar (integrin alpha(5), beta(1)) and 3-D matrix (integrin alpha(5), beta(1), paxillin) adhesions on nano-structures. The presented nano-structures offer interesting opportunities to study the interaction of cells with topographical features comparable to the size of extracellular matrix components. 相似文献

betaig-h3 is a TGF-induced extracellular matrix (ECM) protein. Our previous evidence suggests that beta ig-h3 may promote adhesion and invasion potential of human hepatoma cells, but the mechanism underlying this process is still unknown. The present study identifies a pivotal role for molecules of the beta ig-h3 signal transduction pathway. We demonstrated that beta ig-h3 co-immunoprecipitated with alpha 3beta 1 integrin in human 7721 hepatoma cells. The addition of alpha 3beta 1 integrin antibodies inhibited the elevated adhesion and migration in beta ig-h3-over-expressing 7721 cells, but not in beta ig-h3 siRNA transfected 7721 cells. The expression and activity of integrin downstream molecules FAK and paxillin show a positive correlation with beta ig-h3 expression in different human hepatoma cells. Levels of focal adhesions and stress fibers were decreased in beta ig-h3 siRNA transfected 7721 cells. We suggest that by interaction with alpha 3beta 1 integrin, beta ig-h3 activates FAK-paxillin signaling linkage, leads to cytoskeleton reorganization, and thus enhances the metastatic potentials of human hepatoma cells. 相似文献

The macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) and alpha(v)beta(3) integrins play critical roles in osteoclast function. This study examines M-CSF- and adhesion-induced signaling in prefusion osteoclasts (pOCs) derived from Src-deficient and wild-type mice. Src-deficient cells attach to but do not spread on vitronectin (Vn)-coated surfaces and, contrary to wild-type cells, their adhesion does not lead to tyrosine phosphorylation of molecules activated by adhesion, including PYK2, p130(Cas), paxillin, and PLC-gamma. However, in response to M-CSF, Src(-/-) pOCs spread and migrate on Vn in an alpha(v)beta(3)-dependent manner. Involvement of PLC-gamma activation is suggested by using a PLC inhibitor, U73122, which blocks both adhesion- and M-CSF-mediated cell spreading. Furthermore, in Src(-/-) pOCs M-CSF, together with filamentous actin, causes recruitment of beta(3) integrin and PLC-gamma to adhesion contacts and induces stable association of beta(3) integrin with PLC-gamma, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and PYK2. Moreover, direct interaction of PYK2 and PLC-gamma can be induced by either adhesion or M-CSF, suggesting that this interaction may enable the formation of integrin-associated complexes. Furthermore, this study suggests that in pOCs PLC-gamma is a common downstream mediator for adhesion and growth factor signals. M-CSF-initiated signaling modulates the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin-mediated cytoskeletal reorganization in prefusion osteoclasts in the absence of c-Src, possibly via PLC-gamma. 相似文献

Migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are key events during neointimal formation in pathological conditions of vessels. Tenascin-C (TNC) is upregulated in the developing neointima of lesions. We evaluated the effects of TNC on responses of SMCs against platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulation. TNC coated on substrate promoted PDGF-BB-induced proliferation and migration of rat SMC cell line A10 in BrdU incorporation and transwell assays, respectively. Immunoblotting showed that TNC substrate enhanced autophosphorylation of PDGFR-β after PDGF-BB stimulation. Integrin αvβ3 is known to be a receptor for TNC in SMCs. In immunofluorescence and immunoblot of integrin αv subunit, clustering of αv-positive focal adhesions and upregulated αv expression were observed in the cells on TNC substrate. Immunoprecipitation using anti-integrin αvβ3 antibody demonstrated that PDGFR-β and integrin αvβ3 were co-precipitated and that the relative amount of PDGFR-β after the stimulation was increased by TNC treatment. TNC also promoted phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) at tyrosine (Y) 397 and Y925. The phosphorylated FAK was localized at focal adhesions in immunofluorescence. Phosphorylated SRC at Y418 was also seen at focal adhesions. Immunoprecipitation with αv antibody showed increased SRC association with the integrin signaling complex in the cells on TNC after PDGF treatment. In the cells on TNC substrate, crosstalk signaling between integrin αvβ3 and PDGFR-β could be amplified by SRC and FAK recruited to focal adhesions, followed by enhanced proliferation and migration of A10 cells by PDGF-BB. 相似文献

Podosomes are adhesion structures in osteoclasts and are structurally related to focal adhesions mediating cell motility during bone resorption. Here we show that gelsolin coprecipitates some of the focal adhesion-associated proteins such as c-Src, phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), p130(Cas), focal adhesion kinase, integrin alpha(v)beta(3), vinculin, talin, and paxillin. These proteins were inducibly tyrosine-phosphorylated in response to integrin activation by osteopontin. Previous studies have defined unique biochemical properties of gelsolin related to phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate in osteoclast podosomes, and here we demonstrate phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate/gelsolin function in mediating organization of the podosome signaling complex. Overlay and GST pull-down assays demonstrated strong phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-PI3K interactions based on the Src homology 2 domains of PI3K. Furthermore, lipid extraction of lysates from activated osteoclasts eliminated interaction between gelsolin, c-Src, PI3K, and focal adhesion kinase despite equal amounts of gelsolin in both the lipid-extracted and unextracted experiment. The cytoplasmic protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP)-proline-glutamic acid-serine-threonine amino acid sequences (PEST) was also found to be associated with gelsolin in osteoclast podosomes and with stimulation of alpha(v)beta(3)-regulated phosphorylation of PTP-PEST. We conclude that gelsolin plays a key role in recruitment of signaling proteins to the plasma membrane through phospholipid-protein interactions and by regulation of their phosphorylation status through its association with PTP-PEST. Because both gelsolin deficiency and PI3K inhibition impair bone resorption, we conclude that phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-based protein interactions are critical for osteoclast function. 相似文献

Focal complexes are continuously formed and transformed into focal adhesions during cell movement. We previously demonstrated that Necl-5 co-localizes with integrin alpha(V)beta(3) at focal complexes, whereas Necl-5 does not localize at focal adhesions in moving NIH3T3 cells, suggesting that Necl-5 may be dissociated from integrin alpha(V)beta(3) during the transformation of focal complexes into focal adhesions, but the underlying mechanism remains unknown. Here, we explore the roles of Necl-5 and Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) in the regulation of the transformation of focal complexes into focal adhesions. We found that inhibition of Necl-5 expression and expression of a constitutively active mutant of ROCK1 enhanced, whereas treatment with a ROCK inhibitor Y-27632 inhibited the transformation of focal complexes into focal adhesions. In HEK293 cells ectopically expressing Necl-5 and integrin alpha(V)beta(3), treatment of cells with Y-27632 increased the binding of Necl-5 to clustered integrin alpha(V)beta(3). The experiments using inhibitors of myosin ATPase and actin polymerization revealed that actomyosin-driven contractility exerts a similar function as ROCK. The phosphorylation of integrin beta(3) at Tyr(747), which is known to be critical for the formation of focal adhesions, plays a pivotal role for the interaction between Necl-5 and integrin alpha(V)beta(3). These results indicate that the transformation of focal complexes into focal adhesions is negatively and positively regulated by Necl-5 and ROCK, respectively, and that ROCK-dependent actomyosin-driven contractility is a critical determinant for the regulation of the interaction between Necl-5 and integrin alpha(V)beta(3). 相似文献

Thymidine phosphorylase is an angiogenic factor that is frequently overexpressed in solid tumors, in rheumatoid arthritis, and in response to inflammatory cytokines. Our previous studies showed that cells expressing thymidine phosphorylase stimulated endothelial cell migration in vitro. This was a consequence of the intracellular metabolism of thymidine by thymidine phosphorylase and subsequent extracellular release of 2-deoxyribose. The mechanisms by which 2-deoxyribose might mediate thymidine phosphorylase-induced cell migration in vitro, however, are obscure. Here we show that both thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose stimulated the formation of focal adhesions and the tyrosine 397 phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Although similar actions occurred upon treatment with the angiogenic factor vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), thymidine phosphorylase differed from VEGF in that its effect on endothelial cell migration was blocked by antibodies to either integrin alpha 5 beta 1 or alpha v beta 3, whereas VEGF-induced endothelial cell migration was only blocked by the alpha v beta 3 antibody. Further, thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose, but not VEGF, increased the association of both focal adhesion kinase and the focal adhesion-associated protein vinculin with integrin alpha 5 beta 1 and, in intact cells, increased the co-localization of focal adhesion kinase with alpha 5 beta 1. Thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose-induced focal adhesion kinase phosphorylation was blocked by the antibodies to alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha v beta 3, directly linking the migration and signaling components of thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose action. Cell surface expression of alpha 5 beta 1 was also increased by thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose. These experiments are the first to demonstrate a direct effect of thymidine phosphorylase and 2-deoxyribose on signaling pathways associated with endothelial cell migration. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated contrasting roles for integrin alpha subunits and their cytoplasmic domains in controlling cell cycle withdrawal and the onset of terminal differentiation (Sastry, S., M. Lakonishok, D. Thomas, J. Muschler, and A.F. Horwitz. 1996. J. Cell Biol. 133:169-184). Ectopic expression of the integrin alpha5 or alpha6A subunit in primary quail myoblasts either decreases or enhances the probability of cell cycle withdrawal, respectively. In this study, we addressed the mechanisms by which changes in integrin alpha subunit ratios regulate this decision. Ectopic expression of truncated alpha5 or alpha6A indicate that the alpha5 cytoplasmic domain is permissive for the proliferative pathway whereas the COOH-terminal 11 amino acids of alpha6A cytoplasmic domain inhibit proliferation and promote differentiation. The alpha5 and alpha6A cytoplasmic domains do not appear to initiate these signals directly, but instead regulate beta1 signaling. Ectopically expressed IL2R-alpha5 or IL2R-alpha6A have no detectable effect on the myoblast phenotype. However, ectopic expression of the beta1A integrin subunit or IL2R-beta1A, autonomously inhibits differentiation and maintains a proliferative state. Perturbing alpha5 or alpha6A ratios also significantly affects activation of beta1 integrin signaling pathways. Ectopic alpha5 expression enhances expression and activation of paxillin as well as mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase with little effect on focal adhesion kinase (FAK). In contrast, ectopic alpha6A expression suppresses FAK and MAP kinase activation with a lesser effect on paxillin. Ectopic expression of wild-type and mutant forms of FAK, paxillin, and MAP/erk kinase (MEK) confirm these correlations. These data demonstrate that (a) proliferative signaling (i.e., inhibition of cell cycle withdrawal and the onset of terminal differentiation) occurs through the beta1A subunit and is modulated by the alpha subunit cytoplasmic domains; (b) perturbing alpha subunit ratios alters paxillin expression and phosphorylation and FAK and MAP kinase activation; (c) quantitative changes in the level of adhesive signaling through integrins and focal adhesion components regulate the decision of myoblasts to withdraw from the cell cycle, in part via MAP kinase. 相似文献

alpha4beta1 integrin regulates lamellipodia protrusion via a focal complex/focal adhesion-independent mechanism

alpha4beta1 integrin plays an important role in cell migration. We show that when ectopically expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells, alpha4beta1 is sufficient and required for promoting protrusion of broad lamellipodia in response to scratch-wounding, whereas alpha5beta1 does not have this effect. By time-lapse microscopy of cells expressing an alpha4/green fluorescent protein fusion protein, we show that alpha4beta1 forms transient puncta at the leading edge of cells that begin to protrude lamellipodia in response to scratch-wounding. The cells expressing a mutant alpha4/green fluorescent protein that binds paxillin at a reduced level had a faster response to scratch-wounding, forming alpha4-positive puncta and protruding lamellipodia much earlier. While enhancing lamellipodia protrusion, this mutation reduces random motility of the cells in Transwell assays, indicating that lamellipodia protrusion and random motility are distinct types of motile activities that are differentially regulated by interactions between alpha4beta1 and paxillin. Finally, we show that, at the leading edge, alpha4-positive puncta and paxillin-positive focal complexes/adhesions do not colocalize, but alpha4beta1 and paxillin colocalize partially in ruffles. These findings provide evidence for a specific role of alpha4beta1 in lamellipodia protrusion that is distinct from the motility-promoting functions of alpha5beta1 and other integrins that mediate cell adhesion and signaling events through focal complexes and focal adhesions. 相似文献

Tumor cell invasion is promoted by activation of protease activated receptor-1 in cooperation with the alpha vbeta 5 integrin 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

The first prototype of the protease activated receptor (PAR) family, the thrombin receptor PAR1, plays a central role both in the malignant invasion process of breast carcinoma metastasis and in the physiological process of placental implantation. The molecular mechanism underlying PAR1 involvement in tumor invasion and metastasis, however, is poorly defined. Here we show that PAR1 increases the invasive properties of tumor cells primarily by increased adhesion to extracellular matrix components. This preferential adhesion is accompanied by the cytoskeletal reorganization of F-actin toward migration-favoring morphology as detected by phalloidin staining. Activation of PAR1 increased the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase and paxillin, and the induced formation of focal contact complexes. PAR1 activation affected integrin cell-surface distribution without altering their level of expression. The specific recruitment of alpha(v)beta(5) to focal contact sites, but not of alpha(v)beta(3) or alpha(5)beta(1), was observed by immunofluorescent microscopy. PAR1 overexpressing cells showed selective reciprocal co-precipitation with alpha(v)beta(5) and paxillin but not with alpha(v)beta(3) that remained evenly distributed under these conditions. This co-immunoprecipitation failed to occur in cells containing the truncated form of PAR1 that lacked the entire cytoplasmic portion of the receptor. Thus, the PAR1 cytoplasmic tail is essential for conveying the cross-talk and recruiting the alpha(v)beta(5) integrin. While PAR1 overexpressing cells were invasive in vitro, as reflected by their migration through a Matrigel barrier, invasion was further enhanced by ligand activation of PAR1. Moreover, the application of anti-alpha(v)beta(5) antibodies specifically attenuated this PAR1 induced invasion. We propose that the activation of PAR1 may lead to a novel cooperation with the alpha(v)beta(5) integrin that supports tumor cell invasion. 相似文献

Recently, we have shown that membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) exhibits integrin convertase activity. Similar to furin-like proprotein convertases, MT1-MMP directly processes a single chain precursor of alpha(v) integrin subunit (pro-alpha(v)) into the heavy and light alpha-chains connected by a disulfide bridge. To evaluate functionality of MT1-MMP-processed integrins, we examined breast carcinoma MCF7 cells co-expressing alpha(v)beta(3) integrin with either the wild type or mutant MT1-MMP in a variety of migration and adhesion tests. Specific inhibitors of proprotein convertases and MMP were employed in our cell system to attenuate the individual pathways of pro-alpha(v) maturation. We present evidence that MT1-MMP cleavage of pro-alpha(v) in the cells did not affect RGD-ligand binding of the resulting alpha(v)beta(3) integrin but enhanced outside-in signal transduction through a focal adhesion kinase pathway. Enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase in cells co-expressing MT1-MMP and alpha(v)beta(3) integrin contributed to efficient adhesion and, especially, migration of cells on vitronectin, a ligand of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. These mechanisms underscore the significance of a coordinated interplay between MT1-MMP and alpha(v)beta(3) integrin in tumor cells and identify downstream signaling pathways resulting from their interactions. Regulation of integrin maturation and functionality may be an important role of MT1-MMP in tumor cells. 相似文献

Enhanced expression of both integrin alpha v beta 3 and platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFr) has been described in glioblastoma tumors. We therefore explored the possibility that integrin alpha v beta 3 cooperates with PDGFr to promote cell migration in glioblastoma cells, and extended the study to identify the Src family members that are activated on PDGF stimulation. Glioblastoma cells utilize integrins alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5 to mediate vitronectin attachment. We found that physiologic PDGF stimulation (83 pm, 10 min) of vitronectin-adherent cells promoted the specific recruitment of integrin alpha v beta 3-containing focal adhesions to the cell cortex and alpha v beta 3-mediated cell motility. Analysis of PDGFr immunoprecipitates indicated an association of the PDGFr beta with integrin alpha v beta 3, but not integrin alpha v beta 5. Cells plated onto collagen or laminin, which engage different integrins, exhibited significantly less migration on PDGF stimulation, indicating a cooperation of alpha v beta 3 and the PDGFr beta in glioblastoma cells that promotes migration. Further analysis of the cells plated onto vitronectin indicated that PDGF stimulation caused an increase in Src kinase activity, which was associated with integrin alpha v beta 3. In the vitronectin-adherent cells, Lyn was associated preferentially with alpha v beta 3 both in the presence and absence of PDGF stimulation. In contrast, Fyn was associated with both alpha v beta 3 and alpha v beta 5. Moreover, PDGF stimulation increased the activity of Lyn, but not Fyn, in vitronectin-adherent cells, and the activity of Fyn, but not Lyn, in laminin-adherent cells. Using cells attached to mAb anti-alpha v beta 3 or mAb anti-integrin alpha 6, we confirmed the activation of specific members of the Src kinase family with PDGF stimulation. Down-regulation of Lyn expression by siRNA significantly inhibited the cell migration mediated by integrin alpha v beta 3 in PDGF-stimulated cells, demonstrating the PDGFr beta cooperates with integrin alpha v beta 3 in promoting the motility of vitronectin-adherent glioblastoma cells through a Lyn kinase-mediated pathway. Notably, the data indicate that engagement of different integrins alters the identity of the Src family members that are activated on stimulation with PDGF. 相似文献

Extracellular fragment of brain-specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1 suppresses endothelial cell proliferation by blocking alphavbeta5 integrin 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Brain-specific angiogenesis inhibitor 1 (BAI1) is a transmembrane protein with anti-angiogenic activity. The mechanisms underlying BAI1 activity are unknown. In this study, we found that overexpression of BAI1 increased cell death in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and, to a lesser degree, in SHSY5Y and U343 cells. Conditioned medium from BAI1-transfected U343 cells inhibited proliferation of HUVECs, and this effect was neutralized by addition of anti-BAI1 serum. The conditioned medium contained four cleavage products of the BAI1 extracellular domain. BAI1's middle extracellular region containing five thrombospondin type 1 repeats (BAI1-TSR) was sufficient for BAI1's antiproliferative effect on HUVECs. BAI1's action on HUVECs was blocked by anti-alpha(v) integrin, but not by anti-CD36 antibody treatment. Introduction of alpha(v)beta(5) integrin into HEK293 cells rendered them susceptible to cell death by BAI1, and BAI1-TSR bound with alpha(v)beta(5) integrin, but not to alpha(v)beta(3) integrin in brain tissue. Fluorescent BAI1-TSR colocalized with alpha(v)beta(5) integrin in HUVECs. Together, our results indicate that BAI1 has antiproliferative action on surrounding endothelial cells by blocking alpha(v)beta(5) integrin, and its active region is BAI1-TSR. BAI1-TSR could be valuable for regulating brain angiogenesis. 相似文献

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) agonists cause cell death in several types of cancer cells. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of two PPARgamma agonists, ciglitazone and 15-deoxy-delta(12,14)-prostaglandin J2 (15dPGJ2), on the survival of thyroid carcinoma CGTH W-2 cells. Both ciglitazone and 15dPGJ2 decreased cell viability in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Cell death was mainly due to apoptosis, with a minor contribution from necrosis. Increased levels of active caspase 3, cleaved poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP), and cytosolic cytochrome-c were noted. In addition, ciglitazone and 15dPGJ2 induced detachment of CGTH W-2 cells from the culture substratum. Both the protein levels and immunostaining signals of focal adhesion (FA) proteins, including vinculin, integrin beta1, focal adhesion kinase (FAK), and paxillin were decreased after PPARgamma agonist treatment. Meanwhile, reduced phosphorylation of FAK and paxillin was noted. Furthermore, PPARgamma agonists induced expression of protein tyrosine phosphatase-PEST (PTP-PEST), and of phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN). The upregulation of these phosphatases might contribute to the dephosphorylation of FAK and paxillin, since pre-treatment with orthovanadate prevented PPARgamma agonist-induced dephosphorylation of FAK and paxillin. Perturbation of CGTH W-2 cells with anti-integrin beta1 antibodies induced FA disruption and apoptosis in the same cells, thus the downregulation of integrin beta1 by PPARgamma agonists resulted in FA disassembly and might induce apoptosis via anoikis. Our results suggested the presence of crosstalk between apoptosis and integrin-FA signaling. Moreover, upregulation and activation of PTEN was correlated with reduced phosphorylation of Akt, and this consequence disfavored cell survival. In conclusion, PPARgamma agonists induced apoptosis of thyroid carcinoma cells via the cytochrome-c caspase 3 and PTEN-Akt pathways, and induced necrosis via the PARP pathway. 相似文献
