Abstract

Nonenzymatic glycation of proteins is involved in the pathogenesis of diabetes vascular complications. Extracellular matrix proteins are a prominent target for nonenzymatic glycation because of their slow turnover rates. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of human fibronectin (F) nonenzymatic glycation on adhesion and proliferation of cultured human vascular smooth muscle cells (hVSMC). Incubation of human F with 500 mmol/L D-glucose at 37 degrees C induced a time-dependent increase in fluorescence detectable at 440 nm after excitation at 363 nm. Nonenzymatic glycation did not affect binding of F itself to the plates. Adhesion of hVSMC to F increased with the increase of incubation time of the cells on the protein from 30 minutes up to 120 minutes and remained stable thereafter. Adhesion to glycated fibronectin (GF) was reduced in comparison to control F at all the different adhesion times. Adhesion of hVSMC to GF was reduced when F was exposed to glucose for 4, 9, or 28 days (P=.0417 to .0025), but not when F was exposed for 1 day. Adhesion of hVSMC to GF was reduced compared with adhesion to nonglycated F at all coating concentrations from 0.2 to 10 micrograms/mL (P=.05 to .014). Thus, nonenzymatic glycati...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.
