Subsequent to wounding, keratinocytes must quickly restore barrier function. In vitro wound models have served to elucidate mechanisms of epithelial closure and key roles for integrins alpha6beta4 and alpha3beta1. To extrapolate in vitro data to in vivo human tissues, we used ultrathin cryomicrotomy to simultaneously observe tissue ultrastructure and immunogold localization in unwounded skin and acute human cutaneous wounds. Localization of the beta4 integrin subunit in unwounded skin shows dominant hemidesmosomal association and minor basal keratinocyte lateral filopodic cell-cell expression. After wounding, beta4 dominantly localized to cytokeratin-rich regions (trailing edge hemidesmosomes) and minor association with lamellipodia (leading edge). beta4 colocalizes with alpha3 within filopodia juxtaposed to wound matrix, and increased concentrations of beta4 were found in cytoplasmic vesicles within basal keratinocytes of the migrating tongue. alpha3 integrin subunit dominantly localized to filopodia within basal keratinocyte lateral cell-cell interfaces in unwounded skin and both cell-cell and cell-matrix filopodic interactions in wounded skin. This study indicates that beta4 interacts with the extracellular environment through both stable and transient interactions and may be managed through a different endosomal trafficking pathway than alpha3. alpha3 integrin, despite its ability to respond to alternate ligands after wounding, does so through a single structure, the filopodia. 相似文献

Dynamic changes in the osteoclast cytoskeleton in response to growth factors and cell attachment are controlled by beta3 integrin 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
The beta3 integrin cytoplasmic domain, and specifically S752, is critical for integrin localization and osteoclast (OC) function. Because growth factors such as macrophage colony-stimulating factor and hepatocyte growth factor affect integrin activation and function via inside-out signaling, a process requiring the beta integrin cytoplasmic tail, we examined the effect of these growth factors on OC precursors. To this end, we retrovirally expressed various beta3 integrins with cytoplasmic tail mutations in beta3-deficient OC precursors. We find that S752 in the beta3 cytoplasmic tail is required for growth factor-induced integrin activation, cytoskeletal reorganization, and membrane protrusion, thereby affecting OC adhesion, migration, and bone resorption. The small GTPases Rho and Rac mediate cytoskeletal reorganization, and activation of each is defective in OC precursors lacking a functional beta3 subunit. Activation of the upstream mediators c-Src and c-Cbl is also dependent on beta3. Interestingly, although the FAK-related kinase Pyk2 interacts with c-Src and c-Cbl, its activation is not disrupted in the absence of functional beta3. Instead, its activation is dependent upon intracellular calcium, and on the beta2 integrin. Thus, the beta3 cytoplasmic domain is responsible for activation of specific intracellular signals leading to cytoskeletal reorganization critical for OC function. 相似文献

Muscle fibers attach to laminin in the basal lamina using two distinct mechanisms: the dystrophin glycoprotein complex and the alpha 7 beta 1 integrin. Defects in these linkage systems result in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), alpha 2 laminin congenital muscular dystrophy, sarcoglycan-related muscular dystrophy, and alpha 7 integrin congenital muscular dystrophy. Therefore, the molecular continuity between the extracellular matrix and cell cytoskeleton is essential for the structural and functional integrity of skeletal muscle. To test whether the alpha 7 beta 1 integrin can compensate for the absence of dystrophin, we expressed the rat alpha 7 chain in mdx/utr(-/-) mice that lack both dystrophin and utrophin. These mice develop a severe muscular dystrophy highly akin to that in DMD, and they also die prematurely. Using the muscle creatine kinase promoter, expression of the alpha 7BX2 integrin chain was increased 2.0-2.3-fold in mdx/utr(-/-) mice. Concomitant with the increase in the alpha 7 chain, its heterodimeric partner, beta 1D, was also increased in the transgenic animals. Transgenic expression of the alpha 7BX2 chain in the mdx/utr(-/-) mice extended their longevity by threefold, reduced kyphosis and the development of muscle disease, and maintained mobility and the structure of the neuromuscular junction. Thus, bolstering alpha 7 beta 1 integrin-mediated association of muscle cells with the extracellular matrix alleviates many of the symptoms of disease observed in mdx/utr(-/-) mice and compensates for the absence of the dystrophin- and utrophin-mediated linkage systems. This suggests that enhanced expression of the alpha 7 beta 1 integrin may provide a novel approach to treat DMD and other muscle diseases that arise due to defects in the dystrophin glycoprotein complex.

The integrin alpha9beta1 has been shown to be widely expressed on smooth muscle and epithelial cells, and to mediate adhesion to the extracellular matrix proteins osteopontin and tenascin-C. We have found that the peptide sequence this integrin recognizes in tenascin-C is highly homologous to the sequence recognized by the closely related integrin alpha4beta1, in the inducible endothelial ligand, vascular cell adhesion mole-cule-1 (VCAM-1). We therefore sought to determine whether alpha9beta1 also recognizes VCAM-1, and whether any such interaction would be biologically significant. In this report, we demonstrate that alpha9beta1 mediates stable cell adhesion to recombinant VCAM-1 and to VCAM-1 induced on human umbilical vein endothelial cells by tumor necrosis factor-alpha. Furthermore, we show that alpha9beta1 is highly and selectively expressed on neutrophils and is critical for neutrophil migration on VCAM-1 and tenascin-C. Finally, alpha9beta1 and alpha4 integrins contribute to neutrophil chemotaxis across activated endothelial monolayers. These observations suggest a possible role for alpha9beta1/VCAM-1 interactions in extravasation of neutrophils at sites of acute inflammation. 相似文献

The integrin alpha3beta1 mediates cellular adhesion to the matrix ligand laminin-5. A second integrin ligand, the urokinase receptor (uPAR), associates with alpha3beta1 via a surface loop within the alpha3 beta-propeller (residues 242-246) but outside the laminin binding region, suggesting that uPAR-integrin interactions could signal differently from matrix engagement. To explore this, alpha3-/- epithelial cells were reconstituted with wild-type (wt) alpha3 or alpha3 with Ala mutations within the uPAR-interacting loop (H245A or R244A). Wt or mutant-bearing cells showed comparable expression and adhesion to laminin-5. Cells expressing wt alpha3 and uPAR dissociated in culture, with increased Src activity, up-regulation of SLUG, and down-regulation of E-cadherin and gamma-catenin. Src kinase inhibition or expression of Src 1-251 restored the epithelial phenotype. The H245A and R244A mutants were unaffected by coexpression of uPAR. We conclude that alpha3beta1 regulates both cell-cell contact and matrix adhesion, but through distinct protein interaction sites within its beta-propeller. These studies reveal an integrin- and Src-dependent pathway for SLUG expression and mesenchymal transition. 相似文献

CD151 is a cell surface protein that belongs to the tetraspan superfamily. It associates with other tetraspan molecules and certain integrins to form large complexes at the cell surface. CD151 is expressed by a variety of epithelia and mesenchymal cells. We demonstrate here that in human skin CD151 is codistributed with alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4 at the basolateral surface of basal keratinocytes. Immunoelectron microscopy showed that CD151 is concentrated in hemidesmosomes. By immunoprecipitation from transfected K562 cells, we established that CD151 associates with alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4. In beta4-deficient pyloric atresia associated with junctional epidermolysis bullosa (PA-JEB) keratinocytes, CD151 and alpha3beta1 are clustered together at the basal cell surface in association with patches of laminin-5. Focal adhesions are present at the periphery of these clusters, connected with actin filaments, and they contain both CD151 and alpha3beta1. Transient transfection studies of PA-JEB cells with beta4 revealed that the integrin alpha6beta4 becomes incorporated into the alpha3beta1-CD151 clusters where it induces the formation of hemidesmosomes. As a result, the amount of alpha3beta1 in the clusters diminishes and the protein becomes restricted to the peripheral focal adhesions. Furthermore, CD151 becomes predominantly associated with alpha6beta4 in hemidesmosomes, whereas its codistribution with alpha3beta1 in focal adhesions becomes partial. The localization of alpha6beta4 in the pre-hemidesmosomal clusters is accompanied by a strong upregulation of CD151, which is at least partly due to increased cell surface expression. Using beta4 chimeras containing the extracellular and transmembrane domain of the IL-2 receptor and the cytoplasmic domain of beta4, we found that for recruitment of CD151 into hemidesmosomes, the beta4 subunit must be associated with alpha6, confirming that integrins associate with tetraspans via their alpha subunits. CD151 is the only tetraspan identified in hemidesmosomal structures. Others, such as CD9 and CD81, remain diffusely distributed at the cell surface.In conclusion, we show that CD151 is a major component of (pre)-hemidesmosomal structures and that its recruitment into hemidesmosomes is regulated by the integrin alpha6beta4. We suggest that CD151 plays a role in the formation and stability of hemidesmosomes by providing a framework for the spatial organization of the different hemidesmosomal components. 相似文献

Collagen plays a critical role in hemostasis by promoting adhesion and activation of platelets at sites of vessel injury. In the present model of platelet-collagen interaction, adhesion is mediated via the inside-out regulation of integrin alpha2beta1 and activation through the glycoprotein VI (GPVI)-Fc receptor (FcR) gamma-chain complex. The present study extends this model by demonstrating that engagement of alpha2beta1 by an integrin-specific sequence from within collagen or by collagen itself generates tyrosine kinase-based intracellular signals that lead to formation of filopodia and lamellipodia in the absence of the GPVI-FcR gamma-chain complex. The same events do not occur in platelet suspensions. alpha2beta1 activation of adherent platelets stimulates tyrosine phosphorylation of many of the proteins in the GPVI-FcR gamma-chain cascade, including Src, Syk, SLP-76, and PLCgamma2 as well as plasma membrane calcium ATPase and focal adhesion kinase. alpha2beta1-mediated spreading is dramatically inhibited in the presence of the Src kinase inhibitor PP2 and in PLCgamma2-deficient platelets. Spreading is abolished by chelation of intracellular Ca2+. Demonstration that adhesion of platelets to collagen via alpha2beta1 generates intracellular signals provides a new insight into the mechanisms that control thrombus formation and may explain the unstable nature of beta1-deficient thrombi and why loss of the GPVI-FcR gamma-chain complex has a relatively minor effect on bleeding. 相似文献

Integrins can exist in different functional states with low or high binding capacity for particular ligands. We previously provided evidence that the integrin α6β1, on mouse eggs and on α6-transfected cells, interacted with the disintegrin domain of the sperm surface protein ADAM 2 (fertilin β). In the present study we tested the hypothesis that different states of α6β1 interact with fertilin and laminin, an extracellular matrix ligand for α6β1. Using α6-transfected cells we found that treatments (e.g., with phorbol myristate acetate or MnCl2) that increased adhesion to laminin inhibited sperm binding. Conversely, treatments that inhibited laminin adhesion increased sperm binding. Next, we compared the ability of fluorescent beads coated with either fertilin β or with the laminin E8 fragment to bind to eggs. In Ca2+-containing media, fertilin β beads bound to eggs via an interaction mediated by the disintegrin loop of fertilin β and by the α6 integrin subunit. In Ca2+-containing media, laminin E8 beads did not bind to eggs. Treatment of eggs with phorbol myristate acetate or with the actin disrupting agent, latrunculin A, inhibited fertilin bead binding, but did not induce laminin E8 bead binding. Treatment of eggs with Mn2+ dramatically increased laminin E8 bead binding, and inhibited fertilin bead binding. Our results provide the first evidence that different states of an integrin (α6β1) can interact with an extracellular matrix ligand (laminin) or a membrane-anchored cell surface ligand (ADAM 2). 相似文献

Cyclic Arg-Gly-Asp-D-Phe-Lys [c(RGDfK)] targeted poly(L-glutamic acid) (PGA)-(Gd-DO3A) conjugate with a biodegradable cystamine spacer was prepared and evaluated for in vivo detection of an angiogenesis biomarker, alpha(v)beta3 integrin, in neoplastic tissues with T1 mapping, a quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. The binding activity of the c(RGDfK) containing conjugate was investigated using in vitro vitronectin assay with human prostate carcinoma DU145 cell line and Kaposi's sarcoma SLK cell line. The peptide c(RGDfK) and PGA-cystamine-(Gd-DO3A) conjugate were used as controls. The binding affinity of polymer bound c(RGDfK) was slightly lower than free c(RGDfK) peptide. The RGD targeted conjugate had higher binding affinity to the DU145 cells than the SLK cells, which was consistent to free c(RGDfK). The imaging of alpha(v)beta3 integrin with targeted PGA-cystamine-(Gd-DO3A) was evaluated in nude mice bearing DU145 and SLK xenografts at a dose of 5 micromol-Gd/kg. The targeted conjugate demonstrated higher in vivo binding affinity to the DU145 xenografts than the SLK xenografts, resulting in a significant decrease of T1 values of water protons in the periphery of the DU145 tumors as shown in the MR T1 maps. No significant decrease of T1 values was observed in the SLK tumor with the targeted conjugate and in both tumors with the non-targeted conjugate. The targeted polymeric Gd(III) chelate conjugate with a degradable spacer has the potential to be a new paradigm for safe and effective probes in molecular imaging with quantitative MR T1 mapping. 相似文献

Integrin αvβ3 is most likely the foremost modulator of angiogenesis among all known integrins. Recombinant disintegrin DisBa-01, originally obtained from snake venom glands, binds to αvβ3, thereby significantly inhibiting adhesion and generating in vivo anti-metastatic ability. However, its function in mediator production is not clear. Here, we observed that the mediators VEGF-A, IL-8, and TGF-β are not produced by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC cell line) or monocyte/macrophage cells (SC cell line) when cells adhered to vitronectin. However, when exposed to DisBa-01, HUVECs produced higher levels of TGF-β, and SC cells produced higher levels of VEGF-A. Nonetheless, HUVECs also showed an enhancement of apoptosis after losing adherence when exposed to disintegrin, which is a characteristic of anoikis. We propose that disintegrin DisBa-01 could be used to modulate integrin αvβ3 functions. 相似文献

Maspin is a non-inhibitory serine protease inhibitor (serpin) that influences many cellular functions including adhesion, migration, and invasion. The underlying molecular mechanisms that facilitate these actions are still being elucidated. In this study we determined the mechanism by which maspin mediates increased MCF10A cell adhesion. Utilizing competition peptides and mutation analyses, we discovered two unique regions (amino acid residues 190-202 and 260-275) involved in facilitating the increased adhesion function of maspin. In addition, we demonstrate that the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA)/uPA receptor (uPAR) complex is required for the localization and adhesion function of maspin. Finally, we showed that maspin, uPAR, and β1 integrin co-immunoprecipitate, suggesting a novel maspin-uPA-uPAR-β1 integrin mega-complex that regulates mammary epithelial cell adhesion. 相似文献

Pre-adipose 3T3-F442A cells exposed to fetal bovine serum or human growth hormone (adipogenic medium) become irreversibly committed to differentiation into adipocytes within 24-36 h. We show now that the action of the serine-threonine kinase inhibitor staurosporine is much more rapid since its addition in non-adipogenic medium resulted in commitment to adipocyte differentiation within 4-6 h. During this period, glycogen synthase kinase 3beta was activated. Commitment depended on an increase in the intracellular calcium concentration that was modulated in part by a T-type calcium channel since mibefradil, amiloride, and NiCl(2), which are selective blockers of the T-type channels, partially inhibited adipose differentiation. Studies of the inhibitory action of retinoic acid showed that a period of time after exposure to St was required in order to stabilize the commitment to adipose differentiation. It was concluded that the commitment of the cells consists of two stages. Commitment is promoted during the first one, and during the second there is a stabilization which still can be destabilized by the addition of retinoic acid or other drugs. The commitment becomes stable after 40 h of staurosporine treatment, and can no longer be prevented by retinoic acid. The identification of these two stages of commitment makes it possible to analyze in further detail early molecular events of the process and the nature of any other participating genes. 相似文献

Functions of small GTPases in integrin expression were investigated when the interaction of nonadherent human colon carcinoma 201 cells with the extracellular matrix (ECM) was examined. By transfection of the constitutively active form of a small GTPase Rac1, Rac V12, adhesion of cells to the ECM increased with concomitant cell spreading and formation of membrane ruffles. Activated Cdc42 and Cdc42 V12, but not wild-type Rac1, Cdc42, or RhoA, also induced the adhesion and spreading of Colo201 cells. This adhesion is integrin β4 dependent since an antibody for integrin β4 inhibited the RacV12-dependent cell adhesion and numbers of adhesive cells on laminin-coated plates exceeded those on collagen- and fibronectin-coated plates. By immunofluorescence, in addition to clustering of integrin molecules, expression of integrin α6β4 on the cell surface of Rac V12- and Cdc42 V12-expressing cells was selectively up-regulated without an increase in biosynthesis of α6β4 integrin. Treatment of Rac V12-expressing cells with wortmannin or LY294002, specific inhibitors of phosphoinositide 3-OH kinase, decreased the up-regulated α6β4 and cell adhesion. In light of this evidence, we propose that the regulation of integrin α6β4 expression induced by Rac1 and Cdc42 may play an important role in cell adhesion and tumorigenesis of colon carcinoma cells. 相似文献
