Roles of integrin β3 cytoplasmic tail in bidirectional signal transduction in a trans-dominant inhibition

摘要：

We evaluated the roles of calpain cleavage-related mutations of the integrin β3 cytoplasmic tail in integrin αIIbβ3 bidirectional signaling using a trans-dominant inhibition model. Chimeric Tac-β3 proteins (i.e., Tac-β3, Tac-β3D741, Tac-β3D747, Tac-β3D754, Tac-β3D759, and Tac-β3DNITY) consisting of the extracellular and transmembrane domains of human IL-2 receptor (Tac) and the human integrin β3 cytoplasmic domain were stably expressed in the 123 CHO cells harboring human glycoprotein Ib-IX and wild-type integrin αIIbβ3. The different cells were assayed for stable adhesion and spreading on immobilized fibrinogen, and for binding soluble fibrinogen representing outside-in and inside-out signaling events, respectively. The chimeric protein Tac-β3 inhibited, and Tac-β3DNITY partially attenuated stable adhesion and spreading. Tac-β3, Tac-β3D759, Tac-β3DNITY, and Tac-β3D754, but not Tac-β3D747 or Tac-β3D741, impaired the soluble fibrinogen binding. Results indicated that the bidirectional signaling was significantly inhibited by Tac-β3 and Tac-β3DNITY, albeit to a much lesser extent. Moreover, only inside-out signaling was impaired in the 123/Tac-β3D759 and 123/Tac-β3D754 cells in contrast to an intact bidirectional signaling in the 123/Tac-β3D747 and 123/Tac-β3D741 cells. In conclusion, the calpain cleavage of integrin β3 resulted in the regulatory effects on signaling by interrupting its interaction with cytoplasmic proteins rather than altering its conformation, and may thus regulate platelet function.

Talin and kindlin: the one-two punch in integrin activation

null

《医学前沿（英文）》 2014年第8卷第1期页码 6-16 doi: 10.1007/s11684-014-0317-3

摘要：

Proper cell-cell and cell-matrix contacts mediated by integrin adhesion receptors are important for development, immune response, hemostasis and wound healing. Integrins pass trans-membrane signals bidirectionally through their regulated affinities for extracellular ligands and intracellular signaling molecules. Such bidirectional signaling by integrins is enabled by the conformational changes that are often linked among extracellular, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. Here, we review how talin-integrin and kindlin-integrin interactions, in cooperation with talin-lipid and kindlin-lipid interactions, regulate integrin affinities and how the progress in these areas helps us understand integrin-related diseases.

摘要： The aim of this study was to explore the expression of integrin-β1 in different stages of hepatic fibrosis and intervention of resveratrol as well as the way by which integrin-β1 promoted hepatic fibrosis. Hepatic fibrosis models of male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were created and intragastric administration of resveratrol was given in low (40 mg/kg), middle (120 mg/kg) and high (200 mg/kg) dose groups. The expression of integrin-β1, tumor growth factor-β (TGF-β) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) in different stages of hepatic fibrosis was detected by using RT-PCR. The expression of hexadecenoic acid (HA) and precollagen III (pc III) was assayed by radioimmunoassay. The expression of integrin-β1, TGF-β and TIMP-1 was determined in each group. Liver function and pathological sections of each group in different stages of hepatic fibrosis was tested to judge the therapeutic efficacy of resveratrol at different doses. The expression of integrin-β1 in normal control group was low and steady and was not increased as the development of hepatic fibrosis, but it is increased in other groups. The expression levels of integrin-β1 in the model control group (0.878±0.03, <0.01) and low dose group (0.855±0.04, <0.01) were higher than other groups, but there was no difference between model control group and low dose group ( >0.05). The expression levels of integrin-β1 and TGF-β in middle dose group and high dose group were higher than other groups ( <0.01). The expression levels of integrin-β1 and TGF-β in model control group and low dose group were lower than the normal control group ( <0.01). The expression levels of TIMP-1 in the model control and low dose groups were higher than the other groups ( <0.01). The expression levels of TIMP-1 in the middle dose group and the high dose group were lower than the normal control group ( <0.01). The expression of integrin-β1 existed in all stages of hepatic fibrosis of SD rats, and it was increased as the development of hepatic fibrosis. The expression of TGF-β and TIMP-1 was consistent with that of integrin-β1 in different stages of hepatic fibrosis. Resveratrol could improve the degree of hepatic fibrosis of SD rats and decrease the expression of integrin-β1 markedly at a dose of 120 mg/kg.

Coronary leukocyte activation in relation to progression of coronary artery disease

null

《医学前沿（英文）》 2016年第10卷第1期页码 85-90 doi: 10.1007/s11684-016-0435-1

摘要：

Leukocyte activation has been linked to atherogenesis, but there is little in vivo evidence for its role in the progression of atherosclerosis. We evaluated the predictive value for progression of coronary artery disease (CAD) of leukocyte activation markers in the coronary circulation. Monocyte and neutrophil CD11b, neutrophil CD66b expression and intracellular neutrophil myeloperoxidase (MPO) in the coronary arteries were determined by flow cytometry in patients undergoing coronary angiography. The primary outcome included fatal and nonfatal myocardial infarction or arterial vascular intervention due to unstable angina pectoris. In total 99 subjects who were included, 70 had CAD at inclusion (26 patients had single-vessel disease, 18 patients had two-vessel disease and 26 patients had three-vessel disease). The median follow-up duration was 2242 days (interquartile range: 2142–2358). During follow-up, 13 patients (13%) developed progression of CAD. Monocyte CD11b, neutrophil CD11b and CD66b expression and intracellular MPO measured in blood obtained from the coronary arteries were not associated with the progression of CAD. These data indicate that coronary monocyte CD11b, neutrophil CD11b and CD66b expression and intracellular MPO do not predict the risk of progression of CAD.

摘要：

绝大多数胰腺癌患者的死亡都是由于癌细胞迅速转移到肺、肝、脑等重要器官造成的。其中，胰腺癌肝转移是胰腺癌患者死亡率高的原因之一。来自胰腺癌细胞的外泌体通常富含跨膜蛋白，用于支持肿瘤微环境的重编程和远处转移性病变的进展。我们的研究发现，由外泌体传递的跨膜糖蛋白CD44通过重编程肿瘤微环境，参与了胰腺癌的转移过程。CD44与整合素α6β4相互作用形成复合物，激活细胞内骨架蛋白及其信号通路，进而调控Src和Ras信号级联反应，促进肿瘤细胞的运动。值得注意的是，我们还证明了CD44-α6β4复合物可以通过外泌体的旁分泌作用传递到靶区。肝细胞选择性摄取具有高表达CD44的肿瘤外泌体，并通过刺激细胞因子、促炎因子和生长因子产生转移前生态位，最终支持肿瘤转移。我们的研究结果表明，外泌体CD44有可能作为胰腺癌临床诊断和治疗的生物标志物。
