The adhesive interactions of circulating blood cells are tightly regulated, receptor-mediated events. To establish a model for studies on regulation of cell adhesion, we have examined the adhesive properties of the HD11 chick myeloblast cell line. Function-perturbing antibodies were used to show that integrins containing the beta 1 subunit mediate HD11 cell attachment to several distinct extracellular matrix proteins, specifically fibronectin, collagen, vitronectin, and fibrinogen. This is the first evidence that an integrin heterodimer in the beta 1 family functions as a receptor for fibrinogen. While the alpha v beta 1 heterodimer has been shown to function as a vitronectin receptor on some cells, this heterodimer could not be detected on HD11 cells. Instead, results suggest that the beta 1 subunit associates with different, unidentified alpha subunit(s) to form receptors for vitronectin and fibrinogen. Results using function-blocking antibodies also demonstrate that on these cells, additional receptors for vitronectin are formed by alpha v beta 3 and alpha v associated with an unidentified 100-kD beta subunit. The adhesive interactions of HD11 cells with these extracellular matrix ligands were shown to be regulated by lipopolysaccharide treatment, making the HD11 cell line attractive for studies of mechanisms regulating cell adhesion. In contrast to primary macrophage which rapidly exhibit enhanced adhesion to laminin and collagen upon activation, activated HD11 cells exhibited reduced adhesion to most extracellular matrix constituents.

Adhesive Interactions

Hyaluronan (HA), a natural component of the extracellular matrix, is supposed to have a regulatory function in the stem cell niche. Bone marrow-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are known to express all three hyaluronan synthases (HASes), which are responsible for HA production. HA is extruded into the extracellular matrix, but also stays bound to the plasma membrane forming a pericellular coat, which plays a key role during early cell adhesion. Since HAS isoenzymes, HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3, produce HA with different molecular weights, a difference in their role for cell adhesion is expected. Here, we transduced the immortalized hMSC cell line SCP1 to constitutively express eGFP-tagged HASes (SCP1-HAS-eGFP) by lentiviral gene transfer. The overexpression of the HAS-eGFP was shown on RNA and protein levels, HA was determined by ELISA and the stained HA-coat was analyzed using confocal microscopy. Time-lapse microscopy, spreading assay and single cell force spectroscopy using atomic force microscopy were applied to characterize adhesion of the different HAS transduced SCP1 cells. We showed in this study that HAS3 overexpressing cells formed the thickest pericellular coat compared with control or HAS1 and HAS2 transduced cells. Furthermore, SCP1-HAS3-eGFP displayed faster and stronger adhesion compared to cells overexpressing the other synthases or control cells. We conclude that overexpression of HASes in hMSCs differentially modulates their initial adhesive interactions with the substrate. This observation might be helpful in regenerative medicine goals.

Hexabrachion is a large glycoprotein of the extracellular matrix (ECM) that is prominent in embryogenesis, wound healing and tumorigenesis. Because of the role of extracellular matrix proteins in the regulation of cell differentiation and migration, the interaction of hexabrachion with cells as well as with other components of the ECM is of great interest. Early reports suggested that hexabrachion does not bind to fibronectin or gelatin but does bind to chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. However, more recent reports have suggested that hexabrachion binds to fibronectin and inhibits cell adhesion as well as cell migration on fibronectin. We have found no evidence of strong hexabrachion-fibronectin binding on either a solid-phase ELISA assay or in a fluid-phase sedimentation assay in which the reactants were allowed to dissociate. However, hexabrachion sedimentation was accelerated in a gradient containing fibronectin throughout. This demonstrates an association between hexabrachions and fibronectin, but the complex is apparently weak and readily reversible. The solid-phase ELISA also shows no evidence of hexabrachion binding to gelatin, laminin or types I, III, IV or V collagen. Hexabrachion does not support strong cell attachment of the cell lines tested. Moreover, hexabrachion can inhibit cell attachment to fibronectin. We demonstrate here that this inhibition requires the hexabrachion to be able to bind to the plastic substratum. The results suggest that hexabrachion inhibition is via a steric inhibition. When the hexabrachion molecules bind to the plastic, they cover up a significant fraction of the underlying fibronectin molecules. Antibody studies are presented that show that hexabrachion can nonspecifically block access of immunoglobulin G molecules to the underlying matrix. This steric blocking is not unique to hexabrachion.

Glycoprotein IIb-IIIa (alpha IIb beta 3) and the vitronectin receptor (alpha v beta 3), two integrins that share the common beta 3 subunit, have been reported to function as promiscuous receptors for the RGD-containing adhesive proteins fibrinogen, vitronectin, fibronectin, von Willebrand factor, and thrombospondin. The present study was designed to establish a cell system for the expression of either GP IIb-IIIa or the vitronectin receptor in an otherwise identical cellular environment and to compare the adhesive properties of these two integrins with those of native GP IIb-IIIa and the vitronectin receptor constitutively expressed in HEL cells or platelets. M21 human melanoma cells lack GP IIb-IIIa and use the vitronectin receptor to attach to vitronectin, fibrinogen, fibronectin, and von Willebrand factor. To study the functional properties of GP IIb-IIIa in these cells, we transfected GP IIb into M21-L cells, a variant of M21 cells (Cheresh, D.A., and R.C. Spiro. 1987. J. Biol. Chem. 262:17703-17711), which lack the expression of functional alpha v and are therefore unable to attach to vitronectin, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor. Transfectants expressing GP IIb were isolated by immunomagnetic beads and surface expression of the GP IIb-IIIa complex was documented by FACS analysis and immunoprecipitation experiments performed with 125I-labeled M21-L/GP IIb cells. Comparative functional studies demonstrated that GP IIb-IIIa expressed in M21-L/GPIIb cells as well as native GP IIb-IIIa constitutively expressed in HEL-5J20 cells (an HEL variant lacking alpha v beta 3) mediated cell attachment to immobilized fibrinogen, but not to vitronectin or von Willebrand factor, whereas the vitronectin receptor expressed in M21 cells and HEL-AD1 cells (an HEL variant expressing alpha v beta 3) mediated cell attachment to fibrinogen, vitronectin, and von Willebrand factor. Similarly, PGl2-treated resting platelets attached to immobilized fibrinogen but not to vitronectin or von Willebrand factor, and this attachment could be inhibited by mAb A2A9 (directed against a functional site on the GP IIb-IIIa complex). However, in contrast to platelets, which adhered to vitronectin and von Willebrand factor after stimulation by thrombin or PMA, activation of the protein kinase C pathway in M21-L/GP IIb or HEL cells did not induce cell adhesion to vitronectin or von Willebrand factor.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells respond to exogenous stimulation from myeloid growth factors that may be secreted by cells of the bone marrow (BM) stroma and retained by glycosaminoglycans in the extracellular matrix. We have analyzed the capacity of malignant cells from patients with AML to maintain close proximity to sites of growth factor production and retention by binding to BM stromal elements, including fibroblasts and extracellular matrix proteins. Leukemic cells from all cases of AML adhered to BM fibroblast (BMF) monolayers (mean +/- standard error [SE] percentage binding, 30.9% +/- 2.5%; n = 23) and to fibronectin and laminin (mean +/- SE percentage binding, 28.0% +/- 4.1% [n = 11] and 21.5% +/- 2.3% [n = 8], respectively). Binding to bovine and human collagen type 1, vitronectin, hyaluronic acid, and albumin was minimal. Analysis of binding mechanisms indicated that very late antigen-4 (VLA-4) and VLA-5 were responsible for AML cell binding to fibronectin. Binding to laminin could be inhibited by antibody to the alpha chain of VLA-6. In contrast, AML cell adhesion to BMF monolayers was not impaired by blocking antibodies to either beta 1 or beta 2 integrins used alone, although the combination of anti-CD11/CD18 and anti-VLA-4 inhibited binding in more than 50% of cases. When anti- VLA-5 was added in these cases, mean +/- SE inhibition of binding of 45.5% +/- 9.1% (P < .001) was observed. Binding of AML cells to extracellular matrix proteins fibronectin and laminin is predominantly beta 1-integrin-dependent, but AML cell adhesion to BMF relies on the simultaneous involvement of beta 1 and beta 2 integrins as well as other currently unrecognized ligands.
