Evaluation of integrin molecules involved in substrate adhesion

Cell Adhesion and Communication
M Enomoto-IwamotoD Boettiger

Abstract

Integrins were cross-linked to their extracellular matrix ligands using non-penetrating chemical cross-linkers. This procedure did not disturb the distribution of integrin in the adhesion structure and adhesion plaque integrin staining remained even when the cultures were extracted with ionic detergents. 80-90% of the beta 1 integrin in the cross-linked culture was extracted with RIPA buffer and the remaining 10-20% was recovered following reversal of the cross-linking. This separated two distinct integrin pools, one which can be cross-linked to substrate bound extracellular matrix and one which is not. The specificity of this procedure for cross-linking of integrins involved in substrate adhesion was demonstrated using NIH 3T3 cells which express both alpha 5 beta 1 and alpha 6 beta 1 integrins. alpha 6 was cross-linked only in cells plated on laminin whereas alpha 5 was cross-linked when fibronectin was present. Using antisera directed to the cytoplasmic domains of either alpha 5 or beta 1 integrin, it was demonstrated that these domains can be blocked in the intact cell but the blocking can be removed using ionic detergent extraction after chemical cross-linking. The extracellular matrix associated with the substrate surface...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
