Hyaluronan-binding protein in endothelial cell morphogenesis
Previous studies from several laboratories have provided evidence that interaction of hyaluronan (HA) with the surface of endothelial cells may be involved in endothelial cell behavior. We have recently characterized a mAb, mAb IVd4, that recognizes and neutralizes HA-binding protein (HABP) from a wide variety of cell types from several different species (Banerjee, S. D., and B. P. Toole. 1991....
متن کاملHyaluronan and a cell-associated hyaluronan binding protein regulate the locomotion of ras-transformed cells
Hyaluronan (HA) and one of its cell binding sites, fibroblast hyaluronan binding protein (HABP), is shown to contribute to the regulation of 10T1/2 cell locomotion that contain an EJ-ras-metallothionein (MT-1) hybrid gene. Promotion of the ras-hybrid gene with zinc sulfate acutely stimulates, by 6-10-fold, cell locomotion. After 10 h, locomotion drops to two- to threefold above that of uninduce...
متن کاملAnti-angiogenic action of plasma hyaluronan binding protein in human umbilical vein endothelial cells.
The kringle domain is a triple loop structure present in angiostatin and endostatin. The disulfide bond-linked kringle architectures have been known to be essential for anti-angiogenic activity. Plasma hyaluronan binding protein (PHBP) is a novel serine protease which consists of three epidermal growth factor (EGF) domains, a kringle domain, and a serine protease domain. PHBP can be cleaved aut...
متن کاملHyaluronan binding by cell surface CD44.
CD44 is the primary cell surface receptor for the extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan. Here we determined the relative avidities of unlabeled hyaluronan preparations for cell surface CD44 by their ability to block the binding of fluorescein-conjugated hyaluronan to a variety of cells. We show that hyaluronan binding at the cell surface is a complex interplay of multivalent binding...
متن کاملIdentification of a 175 kDa protein as the ligand-binding subunit of the rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cell hyaluronan receptor.
The rat liver sinusoidal endothelial cell (LEC) hyaluronan (HA) receptor was previously identified using a photoaffinity HA derivative (J. Biol. Chem., 267, 20451-20456, 1992). Two polypeptides with M(r) = 175,000 and 166,000, were consistently crosslinked, suggesting that the LEC HA receptor is an oligomer. Whether one or both subunits participate in HA binding, was not determined. Here we inv...
