Fibronectin is thought to contribute to the adhesion of corneal epithelium during epithelial repair, presumably by mediating epithelial attachment to stroma during epithelial migration. To understand the mechanism of the interaction of fibronectin with corneal epithelial cells, the effects of intact plasma fibronectin and of the synthetic peptide GRGDS from the cell binding domain of fibronecti...
Communication between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical for regulation of cell growth, survival, migration, and differentiation. Remodeling of the ECM can occur under normal physiological conditions, as a result of tissue injury, and in certain pathological conditions. ECM remodeling leads to alterations in ECM composition and organization that can alter many aspects of cell ...
Fibronectin is a family of immunologically similar glycoproteins which mediate a variety of cell-cell and cell-substratum interactions. It is a constituent of the extracellular matrix of connective tissue and circulates in plasma. When suspension and adherent cultures of a human hepatoma cell line (SK-HEP-1) were incubated in serum-free medium, the resulting conditioned medium contained materia...
beta1 integrins are major cell surface receptors for fibronectin. Some integrins, including beta1 integrins, are known to undergo constitutive endocytosis and recycling. Integrin endocytosis/recycling has been implicated in the regulation of cell migration. However, the mechanisms by which integrin endocytosis/recycling regulates cell migration, and other biological consequences of integrin tra...
Fibronectin is a high-molecular-weight glycoprotein found as a soluble dimer in plasma and as an insoluble multimer in tissues. It has been proposed that plasma fibronectin facilitates phagocytic removal of lysed cells and damaged tissues. Fibronectin binds avidly to several species of gram-positive bacteria and enhances staphylococcal and streptococcal attachment to cultured cells. Determinati...
BACKGROUND Fibronectin glomerulopathy is a rare, inherited, autosomal dominant, glomerular disease characterized by proteinuria, microscopic hematuria, hypertension, massive glomerular deposits of fibronectin, and slow progression to end-stage renal failure. Because the incident of fibronectin glomerulopathy is extremely low, the pathophysiology, genetic abnormalities, epidemiology, and mechani...
Fibronectin and certain polypeptide regions of this adhesive glycoprotein mediate cell attachment and spreading on various substrates. We explored the theoretical prediction that this adhesive protein could become a competitive inhibitor of fibronectin-mediated processes if present in solution at appropriately high concentrations. Fibronectin function was inhibited by purified plasma fibronecti...
In previous studies, Staphylococcus aureus has been shown to bind fibronectin (P. Kuusela, Nature (London) 276:718-720, 1978), an interaction that may be important in bacterial attachment and opsonization. Recently some strains of streptococci of serological groups A, C, and G were also found to bind fibronectin. The binding to one selected strain of Streptococcus pyogenes has been characterize...
A simple method for assessing the opsonic properties of plasma fibronectin is described. The method is based on the uptake of protein-derivatized fluorescent particles by mouse peritoneal macrophages. With this system, fibronectin stimulated the uptake of gelatin conjugated to carboxylated fluorescent particles. In contrast to the gelatinized particles, neither the covalent nor noncovalent inte...
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21(WAF-1/CIP1/MDA-6) (p21) plays a key role in cell cycle inhibition and apoptosis, and is negatively regulated during cell proliferation. Extracellular matrices can affect cellular proliferation, but their effects on p21 have not been entirely elucidated. Herein, we explore the effects of the matrix glycoprotein fibronectin on p21 expression in human lung...
