We have shown previously that VUP was the only line out of ten human melanoma lines that failed to express the vitronectin receptor alpha v beta 3, but instead expressed alpha v beta 1. Levels of alpha v beta 1 expression were low on parental VUP cells so that iterative sorting by FACS, using an anti-alpha v antibody (13C2), was utilised to derive sublines with 8- to 10-fold higher amounts of cell surface alpha v beta 1. There was little difference between low (V-) and high (V+) alpha v beta 1-expressing sublines with regard to adherence to collagen type I, collagen type IV or laminin substrata. However, adherence to vitronectin and fibrinogen correlated closely with alpha v beta 1 expression (35-42% adhesion for V(+) lines versus 6–8% adhesion for V- lines on vitronectin, for example). Utilising a high alpha v beta 1-expressing subline (V + B2) we have shown that binding to vitronectin and fibrinogen was inhibited specifically by function-blocking antibodies to alpha v (17E6 and 14D9) and beta 1 (A11B2). V(+) sublines spread more compared with V(-) sublines on both vitronectin and fibronectin. However, neither alpha 5- nor alpha v-blocking antibodies had any effect on attachment or spreading of V + B2 on fibronectin whereas the combination of alpha 5 (PID6)- and alpha v(17E6)-blocking antibodies abrogated binding to fibronectin almost completely. This is the first report of an alpha v beta 1 integrin able to recognize vitronectin and fibrinogen, and also cooperate with alpha 5 beta 1 to mediate attachment to and spreading on fibronectin.

Regulation of beta 1 integrins in neurite outgrowth following N6,2′-O-dibutyryladenosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate (dBcAMP) treatment was investigated using the human neuroblastoma cell line TR 14. Three beta 1 integrins were identified: the alpha 1 beta 1 receptor bound collagen type I, collagen type IV and probably laminin; the alpha 2 beta 1 integrin bound collagen type I; and the alpha v beta i receptor bound fibronectin. Neurite extension was detectable as early as 30 minutes following dBcAMP treatment, was maximal after 24 hours and remained constant during treatment for 4 days. Adhesion-perturbing beta 1 subunit-specific antibodies, added together with dBcAMP, prevented the outgrowth of new neurites. During the first 24 hours of neurite outgrowth, no change was observed in the amount of beta 1 integrins nor in their topographic distribution. However, dBcAMP treatment increased the binding of alpha 1 beta 1 receptors to collagen type IV-Sepharose by a factor 2.3 +/- 0.6 (P < 0.02), while no alteration in the binding to collagen type I was detected. Moreover, neurites and growth cones were immunoreactive for collagen type IV but not for collagen type I. Consistently dBcAMP-induced neurite outgrowth was inhibited by adhesion-perturbing alpha 1 subunit-specific antibodies. Following maximal neurite outgrowth, the amount of beta 1 integrins determined by immunoprecipitation and by confocal microscopy decreased to 58.3 +/- 11.2% (P < 0.001) and to 55.4 +/- 17.5% (P < 0.001) of untreated levels, respectively, without any change in the level of beta 1 mRNA or de novo synthesized beta 1 precursor. However, pulse-chase experiments showed an increased turnover of the beta 1 subunit: the amount of beta 1 precursor that was degraded after 1 hour chase was 50.5 +/- 8.4% in cells treated for 4 days and 34.2 +/- 3.9% in untreated cells (P < 0.02); the amount of mature beta 1 after 24 hours chase was smaller in cells treated for 4 days compared to untreated cells. In conclusion, during neurite outgrowth, alpha 1 beta 1 integrins are required and acquire an enhanced binding activity for collagen type IV; but following maximal neurite outgrowth, expression of beta 1 integrins is reduced.

ABSTRACT Pathogenic leptospires have the ability to survive and disseminate to multiple organs after penetrating the host. Several pathogens, including spirochetes, have been shown to express surface proteins that interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM). This adhesin-mediated binding process seems to be a crucial step in the colonization of host tissues. This study examined the interaction of putative leptospiral outer membrane proteins with laminin, collagen type I, collagen type IV, cellular fibronectin, and plasma fibronectin. Six predicted coding sequences selected from the Leptospira interrogans serovar Copenhageni genome were cloned, and proteins were expressed, purified by metal affinity chromatography, and characterized by circular dichroism spectroscopy. Their capacity to mediate attachment to ECM components was evaluated by binding assays. We have identified a leptospiral protein encoded by LIC12906, named Lsa24 (leptospiral surface adhesin; 24 kDa) that binds strongly to laminin. Attachment of Lsa24 to laminin was specific, dose dependent, and saturable. Laminin oxidation by sodium metaperiodate reduced the protein-laminin interaction in a concentration-dependent manner, indicating that laminin sugar moieties are crucial for this interaction. Triton X-114-solubilized extract of L. interrogans and phase partitioning showed that Lsa24 was exclusively in the detergent phase, indicating that it is a component of the leptospiral membrane. Moreover, Lsa24 partially inhibited leptospiral adherence to immobilized laminin. This newly identified membrane protein may play a role in mediating adhesion of L. interrogans to the host. To our knowledge, this is the first leptospiral adhesin with laminin-binding properties reported to date.

The aim of this study was to analyze the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in human endoneurium during aging. We harvested 15 cadaveric sural nerves, distributed in 3 age groups (I: 25-44, II: 45-64, III: 65-86 years old). Histological sections were stained immunohistochemically for the presence of collagen type I, type IV and laminin, and the ImageJ processing program was used in morphometrical analysis to determine the percentages of these endoneurial proteins. In two younger groups, the endoneurial matrix of the sural nerve was composed from about equal proportions of these proteins, which may be considered a favorable microenvironment for the regeneration of nerve fibers. Linear regression analysis showed a significant increase in endoneurial collagen type IV with age, while collagen type I and laminin significantly decreased during the aging process. In cases older than 65 years, remodeling of the endoneurial matrix was observed to be significantly higher for the presence of collagen type IV, and lower for the expression of collagen type I and laminin. This age-related imbalance of ECM proteins could represent a disadvantageous microenvironment for nerve fiber regeneration in older adults. Our findings contribute to the development of therapeutic approaches for peripheral nerve regeneration.

The collagen component of the vessel intima consists of collagen type I, III and basement membrane collagens. For type III a particularly potent platelet aggregation activity was found earlier.Three different basement membrane collagens were isolated from call placenta. Occurence of type IV and V(A/B collagen) in the intimal and medial layer of vessel walls has been shown by chemical and immunhistological means(1). The third basement membrane collagen is probably isentical with the 55000 molecular weight component described by CHUNG et al. (2).Platelets from normal subjects were tested for aggregation and spreading on Zaponlack with type IV, V, the separated A and B chains of type V and the short chain collagen. Complete aggregation was obtained only with native type V collagen. Spreading of platelets was induced only by collagen type IV, the A chain of type V and the short chain collagen.The data indicate that all basement membrane collagens activate platelets but in different respects.1.

ABSTRACT. Although it was once considered only a marker of glomerular damage, accumulating evidence indicates that proteinuriaper seis nephrotoxic and contributes to the progression of renal injury. Several studies have demonstrated that activation of complement in proteinuric urine results in tubular and interstitial damage. It was previously demonstrated that acute complement-mediated interstitial disease is induced by C5b-9. Here the role of C5b-9 in the progression of chronic proteinuric renal disease was investigated in a nonimmunologic remnant kidney model. Five-sixths nephrectomies were performed for normocomplementemic control and C6-deficient PVG rats. Tubulointerstitial injury was assessed by measurement of two independent markers of tubular injury (i.e., vimentin and osteopontin), interstitial accumulation of the extracellular matrix components collagen type I, collagen type IV, and laminin, interstitial macrophage infiltration, and renal function. The two groups developed similar levels of proteinuria and BP. Whereas C3 deposition on the brush border was equivalent for rats in the two groups, C5b-9 deposition was observed only for normocomplementemic rats. At day 35, the degrees of both tubulointerstitial injury and renal failure were the same for the two groups. Tubulointerstitial injury in normocomplementemic rats was still severe at day 70. In contrast, interstitial injury in C6-deficient rats had improved markedly at day 70, with improvements in renal function. In a rat model of chronic progressive renal disease secondary to nephron loss, the initial interstitial changes are complement-independent and largely reversible, whereas progressive interstitial fibrosis is mediated predominantly by C5b-9. Treatment to reduce C5b-9 attack in tubular cells may slow progression and facilitate recovery.

ABSTRACT Adhesin-mediated binding to extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins is thought to be a crucial step in the pathogenic process of many bacterial infections. We have previously reported conditional adherence of most Enterococcus faecalis isolates, after growth at 46°C, to ECM proteins collagen types I and IV and laminin; identified an E. faecalis-specific gene, ace, whose encoded protein has characteristics of a bacterial adhesin; and implicated Ace in binding to collagen type I. In this study, we constructed an ace disruption mutant from E. faecalis strain OG1RF that showed marked reduction in adherence to collagen types I and IV and laminin when compared to the parental OG1RF strain after growth at 46°C. Polyclonal immune serum raised against the OG1RF-derived recombinant Ace A domain reacted with a single ∼105-kDa band of mutanolysin extracts from OG1RF grown at 46°C, while no band was detected in extracts from OG1RF grown at 37°C, nor from the OG1RF ace mutant grown at 37 or 46°C. IgGs purified from the anti-Ace A immune serum inhibited adherence of 46°C-grown E. faecalis OG1RF to immobilized collagen type IV and laminin as well as collagen type I, at a concentration as low as 1 μg/ml, and also inhibited the 46°C-evoked adherence of two clinical isolates tested. We also showed in vitro interaction of collagen type IV with Ace from OG1RF mutanolysin extracts on a far-Western blot. Binding of recombinant Ace A to immobilized collagen types I and IV and laminin was demonstrated in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and was shown to be concentration dependent. These results indicate that Ace A mediates the conditional binding of E. faecalis OG1RF to collagen type IV and laminin in addition to collagen type I.

Cultured rat Schwann cells were stimulated to deposit fibrillar extracellular matrix by treatment with ascorbic acid in the absence of nerve cells. Immunofluoresence staining of the matrix showed that it contains collagens types I and IV, fibronectin and perlecan but not laminin. Collagen type IV, fibronectin and perlecan co-distributed completely in the matrix fibrils, whereas collagen type I was present in only a subset of these fibrils. Time course studies indicated that collagen type I fibrils appear at late stages of matrix formation. Digestion of Schwann cell extracellular matrix with collagenase effectively disrupted most of the matrix including fibronectin fibrils. This was in contrast with fibroblasts, where collagenase treatment removed collagen with no visible effect on fibronectin fibrils. alpha5 integrin was expressed on the cell surface of Schwann cells and partially codistributed with fibronectin-containing fibrils. This suggests that the inability of Schwann cells to deposit fibronectin-containing matrix through a conventional, collagen-independent mechanism was not due to the lack of fibronectin-binding integrins on their cell surface. Polyclonal anti-fibronectin antibodies inhibited the deposition of fibronectin into the matrix fibrils, whereas collagen type IV fibrils were generally unaffected. Growth of Schwann cells on collagen type IV-coated substrate in the absence of ascorbate induced deposition of fine fibronectin fibrils. These results suggest that Schwann cells use an apparently novel, collagen type IV-dependent mechanism for the deposition of fibronectin into their extracellular matrix.

The embryonal carcinoma PCC4uva differentiates into neurons in response to treatment with retinoic acid and dbcAMP. We used this in vitro model system to study the effects of laminin on early neural differentiation. Laminin substrata markedly potentiate neural differentiation of retinoic acid and dbcAMP-treated cultures. Only laminin induced more rapid neural cell body clustering, neurite growth and neurite fasciculation as compared to type IV collagen, type I collagen, and fibronectin substrata. Exogenous laminin substrata promoted greater cell attachment, cellular spreading and growth to confluence than type IV collagen, type I collagen, fibronectin and glass substrata. Laminin-induced effects were inhibited by addition of laminin antibodies or the synthetic laminin-derived peptide Ile-Gly-Ser-Arg-NH2 (YIGSR-NH2). Treatment with YIGSR-NH2 also inhibited neural differentiation in the absence of exogenous laminin substrata, whereas synthetic peptides containing the RGD sequence and a control peptide YIGSK-NH2 showed no inhibitory effects. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that specific interactions between an early differentiating cell population(s) and extracellular laminin are required during neural differentiation.
