Abstract
Integrins are heterodimers composed of non-covalently associated alpha and beta subunits that mediate the dynamic linkage between extracellular adhesion molecules and the intracellular actin cytoskeleton. Integrins are present in various tissues and organs and are involved in different physiological and pathological molecular responses in vivo. Wound healing is an important process in the recovery from traumatic diseases and consists of three overlapping phases: inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Integrin regulation acts throughout the wound healing process to promote wound healing. Prolonged inflammation may lead to failure of wound healing, such as wound chronicity. One of the main causes of chronic wound formation is bacterial colonization of the wound. In this review, we review the role of integrins in the regulation of wound healing processes such as angiogenesis and re-epithelialization, as well as the role of integrins in mediating bacterial infections during wound chronicity, and the challenges and prospects of integrins as therapeutic targets for infected wound healing.

The effect of human PBMCs immobilization on their Аβ42 aggregates-dependent proinflammatory state on a cellular model of Alzheimer's disease. Front Neurosci 2024; 18:1325287. [PMID: 38406587 PMCID: PMC10884286 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2024.1325287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 01/26/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
The leading pathological mechanisms of Alzheimer's disease are amyloidosis and inflammation. The presented work was aimed to study the effect of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMcs) cells-matrix adhesion on their pro-inflammatory state in vitro. Although direct interaction of Аβ42 to PBMC is not a cellular model of Alzheimer's disease, PBMCs may serve as test cells to detect Аβ42-dependent molecular effects in monitoring disease progression. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are used to assess changes in cytokines released in response to diseases or Alzheimer's disease-specific cytotoxic molecules such as Aβ42. The effect of recombinant amyloid β-peptide rАβ42 on the concentration of endogenous amyloid β-peptide Aβ40 and pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα and IL-1β in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells that were cultured in suspension and immobilized in alginate microcarriers for 24 h were investigated. The localization and accumulation of Aβ40 and rAβ42 peptides in cells, as well as quantitative determination of the concentration of Aβ40 peptide, TNFα and IL-1β cytokines, was performed by intravital fluorescence imaging. The results were qualitatively similar for both cell models. It was determined that the content of TNFα and Aβ40 in the absence of rAβ42 in the incubation medium did not change for 24 h after incubation, and the content of IL-1β was lower compared to the cells that were not incubated. Incubation of cells in vitro with exogenous rAβ42 led to an increase in the intracellular content of TNFα and Aβ40, and no accumulation of IL-1β in cells was observed. The accumulation of Aβ40 in the cytoplasm was accompanied by the aggregation of rAβ42 on the outer surface of the cell plasma membrane. It was shown that the basic levels of indicators and the intensity of the response of immobilized cells to an exogenous stimulus were significantly greater than those of cells in suspension. To explore whether non-neuronal cells effects in alginate microcarriers were cell-matrix adhesion mediated, we tested the effect of blocking β1 integrins on proamyloidogenic and proinflammation cellular state. Immobilization within alginate hydrogels after incubation with the β1 integrins blocking antibodies showed a remarkable inhibition of TNFα and Aβ40 accumulation in rAβ42-treated cells. It can be concluded that activation of signal transduction and synthesizing activity of a portion of mononuclear cells of human peripheral blood is possible (can significantly increase) in the presence of cell-matrix adhesion.

Abstract
Integrin receptors are heterodimeric surface receptors that play multiple roles regarding cell-cell communication, signaling, and migration. The four members of the β2 integrin subfamily are composed of an alternative α (CD11a-d) subunit, which determines the specific receptor properties, and a constant β (CD18) subunit. This review aims to present insight into the multiple immunological roles of integrin receptors, with a focus on β2 integrins that are specifically expressed by leukocytes. The pathophysiological role of β2 integrins is confirmed by the drastic phenotype of patients suffering from leukocyte adhesion deficiencies, most often resulting in severe recurrent infections and, at the same time, a predisposition for autoimmune diseases. So far, studies on the role of β2 integrins in vivo employed mice with a constitutive knockout of all β2 integrins or either family member, respectively, which complicated the differentiation between the direct and indirect effects of β2 integrin deficiency for distinct cell types. The recent generation and characterization of transgenic mice with a cell-type-specific knockdown of β2 integrins by our group has enabled the dissection of cell-specific roles of β2 integrins. Further, integrin receptors have been recognized as target receptors for the treatment of inflammatory diseases as well as tumor therapy. However, whereas both agonistic and antagonistic agents yielded beneficial effects in animal models, the success of clinical trials was limited in most cases and was associated with unwanted side effects. This unfavorable outcome is most probably related to the systemic effects of the used compounds on all leukocytes, thereby emphasizing the need to develop formulations that target distinct types of leukocytes to modulate β2 integrin activity for therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Collagen remodelling is a vital process for embryonic development and homoeostatic maintenance of the adult body. Collagen remodelling is a complex process in fibroblasts, macrophages and other cells, whereby new collagen is secreted and polymerized into fibrils and old collagen is removed by proteolysis and endocytosis. Whereas the production of collagen is well-studied, the removal of collagen is less understood. In this protocol, we describe a method for the quantification of collagen uptake by cells. This protocol is based on the polymerisation of collagen type I-FITC conjugate in cell culture plate wells. Next, unpolymerized collagen is washed away and the cells are added in cell culture media. At this stage, they can be treated with inhibitors and/or stimulants if required. Afterwards, the cells are detached from the collagen using the protease accutase and the FITC signal is quantified using microscopy and/or flow cytometry.•Easy-to-use protocol for the quantitative measurement of collagen uptake in cells.•Cell detachment from collagen is quick and easy with accutase, even with strong adhering cells like macrophages.•Downstream applications can be a wide selection of analysis techniques like microscopy, RNA- and protein isolation, and flow cytometry.

Abstract
Prion diseases are caused by the misfolding of a normal host protein that leads to gliosis, neuroinflammation, neurodegeneration, and death. Microglia have been shown to be critical for neuroprotection during prion infection of the central nervous system (CNS), and their presence extends survival in mice. How microglia impart these benefits to the infected host are unknown. Previous transcriptomics and bioinformatics studies suggested that signaling through the heterodimeric integrin receptor CD11c/CD18, expressed by microglia in the brain, might be important to microglial function during prion disease. Herein, we intracerebrally challenged CD11c-/- mice with prion strain RML and compared them to similarly infected C57BL/6 mice as controls. We initially assessed changes in the brain that are associated with disease such as astrogliosis, microgliosis, prion accumulation, and survival. Targeted qRT-PCR arrays were used to determine alterations in transcription in mice in response to prion infection. We demonstrate that expression of Itgax (CD11c) and Itgb2 (CD18) increases in the CNS in correlation with advancing prion infection. Gliosis, neuropathology, prion deposition, and disease progression in prion infected CD11c deficient mice were comparable to infected C57BL/6 mice. Additionally, both CD11c deficient and C57BL/6 prion-infected mouse cohorts had a similar consortium of inflammatory- and phagocytosis-associated genes that increased as disease progressed to clinical stages. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis of upregulated genes in infected C57BL/6 mice suggested numerous cell-surface transmembrane receptors signal through Spleen Tyrosine Kinase, a potential key regulator of phagocytosis and innate immune activation in the prion infected brain. Ultimately, the deletion of CD11c did not influence prion pathogenesis in mice and CD11c signaling is not involved in the neuroprotection provided by microglia, but our analysis identified a conspicuous phagocytosis pathway in the CNS of infected mice that appeared to be activated during prion pathogenesis.

Abstract
Collagen, an extracellular protein, covers the entire human body and has several important biological functions in normal physiology. Recently, collagen from non-human sources has attracted attention for therapeutic management and biomedical applications. In this regard, both land-based animals such as cow, pig, chicken, camel, and sheep, and marine-based resources such as fish, octopus, starfish, sea-cucumber, and jellyfish are widely used for collagen extraction. The extracted collagen is transformed into collagen peptides, hydrolysates, films, hydrogels, scaffolds, sponges and 3D matrix for food and biomedical applications. In addition, many strategic ideas are continuously emerging to develop innovative advanced collagen biomaterials. For this purpose, it is important to understand the fundamental perception of how collagen communicates with receptors of biological cells to trigger cell signaling pathways. Therefore, this review discloses the molecular interaction of collagen with cell receptor molecules to carry out cellular signaling in biological pathways. By understanding the actual mechanism, this review opens up several new concepts to carry out next level research in collagen biomaterials.

Abstract
Chronic ulcerative and hard-healing wounds are a growing global concern. Skin substitutes, including acellular dermal matrices (ADMs), have shown beneficial effects in healing processes. Presently, the vast majority of currently available ADMs are processed from xenobiotic or cadaveric skin. Here we propose a novel strategy for ADM preparation from human abdominoplasty-derived skin. Skin was processed using three different methods of decellularization involving the use of ionic detergent (sodium dodecyl sulfate; SDS, in hADM 1), non-ionic detergent (Triton X-100 in hADM 2), and a combination of recombinant trypsin and Triton X-100 (in hADM 3). We next evaluated the immunogenicity and immunomodulatory properties of this novel hADM by using an in vitro model of peripheral blood mononuclear cell culture, flow cytometry, and cytokine assays. We found that similarly sourced but differentially processed hADMs possess distinct immunogenicity. hADM 1 showed no immunogenic effects as evidenced by low T cell proliferation and no significant change in cytokine profile. In contrast, hADMs 2 and 3 showed relatively higher immunogenicity. Moreover, our novel hADMs exerted no effect on T cell composition after three-day of coincubation. However, we observed significant changes in the composition of monocytes, indicating their maturation toward a phenotype possessing anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic properties. Taken together, we showed here that abdominoplasty skin is suitable for hADM manufacturing. More importantly, the use of SDS-based protocols for the purposes of dermal matrix decellularization allows for the preparation of non-immunogenic scaffolds with high therapeutic potential. Despite these encouraging results, further studies are needed to evaluate the beneficial effects of our hADM 1 on deep and hard-healing wounds.

Abstract
An appropriate delivery system can improve the immune effects of antigens against various infections or tumors. Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are specialized to capture and process antigens in vivo, which link the innate and adaptive immune responses. Functionalization of vaccine delivery systems with targeting moieties to APCs is a promising strategy for provoking potent immune responses. Additionally, the internalization and intracellular distribution of antigens are closely related to the initiation of downstream immune responses. With a deeper understanding of the intracellular microenvironment and the mechanisms of antigen presentation, vehicles designed to respond to endogenous and external stimuli can modulate antigen processing and presentation pathways, which are critical to the types of immune response. Here, an overview of extracellular targeting delivery of antigens to APCs and intracellular stimulus-responsiveness strategies is provided, which might be helpful for the rational design of vaccine delivery systems.

Abstract
Integrins are transmembrane receptors associated with adhesion and migration and are often highly differentially expressed receptors amongst natural killer cell subsets in microenvironments. Tissue resident natural killer cells are frequently defined by their differential integrin expression compared to other NK cell subsets, and integrins can further localize tissue resident NK cells to tissue microenvironments. As such, integrins play important roles in both the phenotypic and functional identity of NK cell subsets. Here we review the expression of integrin subtypes on NK cells and NK cell subsets with the goal of better understanding how integrin selection can dictate tissue residency and mediate function from the nanoscale to the tissue environment.

Abstract
β-catenin expression by tumor cells suppressed dendritic cell recruitment to the tumor microenvironment in a melanoma model, resulting in fewer tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. Immunohistochemistry was used in the present study to examine the association between the expression of β-catenin and tumor infiltrating lymphocytes and CD11c+ cells in 122 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who underwent radical surgery. β-catenin was positive in 24% of NSCLC tumors compared with 59% of squamous cell carcinomas and 11% of adenocarcinomas. There was no significant association between the expression of β-catenin and the frequency of CD8+ cell infiltration into tumor tissues, including the stroma. Conversely, the infiltration of CD8+ cells into tumor nests was significantly lower in β-catenin-positive cases compared with that in negative β-catenin cases. Similarly, CD11c+ cell infiltration was significantly lower in the β-catenin-positive group. The β-catenin-positive group had shorter overall survival and recurrence-free survival times compared with that in the negative group. Furthermore, β-catenin-positive NSCLC had a high tumor mutation burden, but tended to have a low expression of programmed death-ligand 1. In conclusion, the expression of β-catenin in NSCLC was negatively associated with CD11c+ cells and cytotoxic T cell infiltration at the tumor site and had a tendency towards a poor prognosis.

Type I Collagen Aging Increases Expression and Activation of EGFR and Induces Resistance to Erlotinib in Lung Carcinoma in 3D Matrix Model. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1593.

Abstract
Type I collagen is the major structural component of lung stroma. Because of its long half-life, type I collagen undergoes post-translational modifications such as glycation during aging process. These modifications have been shown to impact the structural organization of type I collagen fibers. In the present work we evaluated the impact of collagen aging on lung carcinoma cells response to erlotinib-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis, and on Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) expression and phosphorylation. To this end, experiments were performed in 2D and 3D matrix models established from type I collagen extracted from adult (10 weeks-old) and old (100 weeks-old) rat's tail tendons. Our results show that old collagen induces a significant increase in EGFR expression and phosphorylation when compared to adult collagen in 3D matrix but not in 2D coating. Such modification was associated to an increase in the IC50 of erlotinib in the presence of old collagen and a lower sensitivity to drug-induced apoptosis. These data suggest that collagen aging confers resistance to the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of therapies targeting EGFR kinase function in lung carcinoma. Moreover, our data underline the importance of the 3D matrix environment in this process.

Abstract
Background Prion diseases and prion-like disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, are characterized by gliosis and accumulation of misfolded aggregated host proteins. Ablating microglia in prion-infected brain by treatment with the colony-stimulating factor-1 receptor (CSF-1R) inhibitor, PLX5622, increased accumulation of misfolded prion protein and decreased survival time. Methods To better understand the role of glia during neurodegeneration, we used RNA-seq technology, network analysis, and hierarchical cluster analysis to compare gene expression in brains of prion-infected versus mock-inoculated mice. Comparisons were also made between PLX5622-treated prion-infected mice and untreated prion-infected mice to assess mechanisms involved in disease acceleration in the absence of microglia. Results RNA-seq and network analysis suggested that microglia responded to prion infection through activation of integrin CD11c/18 and did not adopt the expression signature associated with other neurodegenerative disease models. Instead, microglia acquired an alternative molecular signature late in the disease process. Furthermore, astrocytes expressed a signature pattern of genes which appeared to be specific for prion diseases. Comparisons were also made with prion-infected mice treated with PLX5622 to assess the impact of microglia ablation on astrocyte gene expression during prion infection. In the presence of microglia, a unique mix of transcripts associated with A1- and A2-reactive astrocytes was increased in brains of prion-infected mice. After ablation of microglia, this reactive astrocyte expression pattern was enhanced. Thus, after prion infection, microglia appeared to decrease the overall A1/A2-astrocyte responses which might contribute to increased survival after infection. Conclusions RNA-seq analysis indicated dysregulation of over 300 biological processes within the CNS during prion disease. Distinctive microglia- and astrocyte-associated expression signatures were identified during prion infection. Furthermore, astrogliosis and the unique astrocyte-associated expression signature were independent of microglial influences. Astrogliosis and the unique astrocyte-associated gene expression pattern were increased when microglia were ablated. Our findings emphasize the potential existence of alternative pathways for activating the A1/A2 paradigm in astrocytes during neurodegenerative disease.

Abstract
CD11c+ B cells have been reported to be increased in autoimmune diseases, but they are detected in the blood of healthy individuals as well. We aimed to characterize CD11c+ B cells from healthy donors by flow cytometry, microarray analysis, and in vitro functional assays. Here, we report that CD11c+ B cells are a distinct subpopulation of B cells, enriched in the memory subpopulation even if their phenotype is heterogeneous, with overexpression of genes involved in B-cell activation and differentiation as well as in antigen presentation. Upon activation, CD11c+ B cells can differentiate into antibody-secreting cells, and CD11c could be upregulated in CD11c- B cells by B-cell receptor activation. Finally, we show that patients with pemphigus, an autoimmune disease mediated by B cells, have a decreased frequency of CD11c+ B cell after treatment, relative to baseline. Our findings show that CD11c+ B cells are mainly memory B cells prone to differentiate into antibody secreting cells that accumulate with age, independently of gender.

Abstract
Background Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory process involving activation of monocytes recruited by various chemoattractant factors, among which lipoprotein(a) and its specific apolipoprotein apo(a). Lp(a) contains a specific apolipoprotein apo(a) which size is determined by a variable number of repeats of a specific structural domain, the kringle IV type 2 (IV-2). Lp(a) plasma concentration and apo(a) size is inversely correlated, and smaller apo(a) are major risk factors for coronary heart disease. Design and methods The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of recombinant apo(a) isoforms (containing 10, 18 or 34 kringles) on monocytes interacting with type I collagen. Results Apo(a) isoforms stimulated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) production by monocytes, and not modified monocytes adhesion on type I collagen. This effect was specific of apo(a) since no effect was observed in the presence of plasminogen and was inversely related to apo(a) size. The lysine analogue 6-aminohexanoic acid which blocks the lysine binding sites (LBS), and carboxypeptidase B (CpB) which cleaves carboxy-terminal lysine residues, abolished apo(a)-induced ROS and MMP-9 production, highlighting an effect mediated by apo(a) lysing-binding sites. Conclusions These results indicate that activation of collagen-primed monocytes stimulated with apo(a) is a Kringle number-dependent effect and reinforce the hypothesis of a role for small size apo(a) isoforms in atherothrombosis.

DDR1 and MT1-MMP Expression Levels Are Determinant for Triggering BIK-Mediated Apoptosis by 3D Type I Collagen Matrix in Invasive Basal-Like Breast Carcinoma Cells. Front Pharmacol 2019; 10:462. [PMID: 31130862 PMCID: PMC6509437 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2019.00462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2019] [Accepted: 04/11/2019] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Type I collagen is the major adhesive component in breast interstitial stroma, which represents the first barrier against tumor cell invasion after basement-membrane degradation. Among cellular receptors, type I collagen is able to activate discoidin domain receptors DDR1 and DDR2. We have previously shown that in 3D collagen matrix, DDR1 plays a key role as it promotes cell growth suppression and apoptosis through the upregulation of the pro-apoptotic mediator BIK in noninvasive luminal-like breast carcinoma cells. We have also shown that MT1-MMP is able to rescue these cells and protect them against the effects induced by collagen/DDR1/BIK axis. Our data suggested that the protective effect of MT1-MMP might be mediated through the degradation of type I collagen and/or DDR1 cleavage. Decreased DDR1 expression has been associated with the epithelial to mesenchymal transition process in breast cancer, and its overexpression in aggressive basal-like breast cancer cells reduces their invasiveness in 3D cultures and in vivo. In the present work, we propose to study the role of MT1-MMP in the resistance against collagen-induced apoptosis in basal-like breast carcinoma MDA-MB-231 cells. We aimed to investigate whether MT1-MMP depletion is able to restore apoptosis mediated by collagen/DDR1/BIK axis and to verify if such depletion is able to restore full-length DDR1 expression and phosphorylation. ShRNA strategy against MT1-MMP mRNA was able to partially restore full length DDR1 expression and phosphorylation. This was accompanied by a decrease in cell growth and an upregulation of BIK expression. This suggested that MT1-MMP expression in basal-like breast carcinoma cells, in addition to a low basal level of DDR1 expression, protects these cells against collagen-induced apoptosis via DDR1 cleavage. Since DDR1 was moderately expressed in MDA-MB-231 cells, we then investigated whether overexpression of DDR1 could be able to increase its ability to suppress cell growth and to induce apoptosis. Data showed that overexpression of DDR1 induced a decrease in cell growth and an increase in BIK expression, suggesting that moderate expression level of full length DDR1 in basal-like breast carcinoma provides them with a capacity to resist to collagen-induced cell growth suppression and apoptosis. Finally, the combined overexpression of DDR1 and depletion of MT1-MMP in MDA-MB-231 cells synergistically increased collagen-induced cell growth suppression and apoptosis to a level similar to that observed in luminal breast carcinoma. Taken together, our data suggest that during the acquisition of mesenchymal features, the low level of DDR1 expression should be considered as an important biomarker in the prognosis of basal-like breast carcinoma, conferring them a high rate of cell growth and resistance to BIK-mediated apoptosis induced by the stromal collagen.

Abstract
Background: Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a rare and aggressive malignancy of the biliary tract with a dismal survival rate. Effective biomarkers and therapeutic targets are urgently needed. Methods: We analyzed gene expression profiles of GBC to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and then used these DEGs to identify functional module biomarkers based on protein functional interaction (FI) networks. We further evaluated the module-gene protein expression and clinical significance with immunohistochemistry staining (IHC) in a tissue microarray (TMA) from 80 GBC samples. Results: Five functional modules were identified. Module 0 included classical cancer signaling pathways, such as Ras and PI3K-Akt; and modules 1–4 included genes associated with muscle cells, fibrinogen, extracellular matrix, and integrins, respectively. We validated the expression of LIFR, PIK3R1, and MMP12, which were hubs or functional nodes in modules. Compared with paired peritumoural tissues, we found that the expression of LIFR (P = 0.002) and PIK3R1 (P = 0.046) proteins were significantly downregulated, and MMP12 (P = 0.006) was significantly upregulated. Further prognostic analysis showed that patients with low expression of LIFR had shorter overall survival than those with high expression (log-rank test P = 0.028), the same trend as for PIK3R1 (P = 0.053) and MMP12 (P = 0.006). Multivariate analysis indicated that expression of MMP12 protein (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.429; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.198, 0.930; P = 0.032) was one of the significant independent prognostic factors for overall survival. Conclusions: We found a highly reliable FI network, which revealed LIFR, PIK3R1, and MMP12 as novel prognostic biomarker candidates for GBC. These findings could accelerate biomarker discovery and therapeutic development in this cancer.

Abstract
Clinical tolerance without immunosuppression has now been achieved for organ transplantation, and its scope will likely continue to expand. In this context, a previously understudied and now increasingly relevant area is how microbial infections might affect the efficacy of tolerance. A highly prevalent and clinically relevant posttransplant pathogen is cytomegalovirus (CMV). Its impact on transplantation tolerance and graft outcomes is not well defined. Employing a mouse model of CMV (MCMV) infection and allogeneic pancreatic islet transplantation in which donor-specific tolerance was induced by infusing donor splenocytes rendered apoptotic by treatment with ethylenecarbodiimide, we investigated the effect of CMV infection on transplantation tolerance induction. We found that acute MCMV infection abrogated tolerance induction and that this abrogation correlated with an alteration in the differentiation and function of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). These effects on MDSCs were mediated in part through MCMV induced type 1 interferon (IFN) production. During MCMV infection, the highly immunosuppressive Gr1HI-granulocytic MDSCs were markedly reduced in numbers, and the accumulating Ly6CHI-monocytic cells lost their MDSC-like function but instead acquired an immunostimulatory phenotype to cross-present alloantigens and prime alloreactive CD8 T cells. Consequently, the islet allograft exhibited an altered effector to regulatory T-cell ratio that correlated with the ultimate graft demise. Blocking type 1 IFN signaling during MCMV infection rescued MDSC populations and partially restored transplantation tolerance. Our mechanistic studies now provide a solid foundation for seeking effective therapies for promoting transplantation tolerance in settings of CMV infection.

Abstract
Type I collagen and DDR1 axis has been described to decrease cell proliferation and to initiate apoptosis in non-invasive breast carcinoma in three-dimensional cell culture matrices. Moreover, MT1-MMP down-regulates these effects. Here, we address the effect of type I collagen aging and MT1-MMP expression on cell proliferation suppression and induced-apoptosis in non-invasive MCF-7 and ZR-75-1 breast carcinoma. We provide evidence for a decrease in cell growth and an increase in apoptosis in the presence of adult collagen when compared to old collagen. This effect involves a differential activation of DDR1, as evidenced by a higher DDR1 phosphorylation level in adult collagen. In adult collagen, inhibition of DDR1 expression and kinase function induced an increase in cell growth to a level similar to that observed in old collagen. The impact of aging on the sensitivity of collagen to MT1-MMP has been reported recently. We used the MT1-MMP expression strategy to verify whether, by degrading adult type I collagen, it could lead to the same phenotype observed in old collagen 3D matrix. MT1-MMP overexpression abrogated the proliferation suppression and induced-apoptosis effects only in the presence of adult collagen. This suggests that differential collagen degradation by MT1-MMP induced a structural disorganization of adult collagen and inhibits DDR1 activation. This could in turn impair DDR1-induced cell growth suppression and apoptosis. Taken together, our data suggest that modifications of collagen structural organization, due to aging, contribute to the loss of the growth suppression and induced apoptosis effect of collagen in luminal breast carcinoma. MT1-MMP-dependent degradation and aging of collagen have no additive effects on these processes.

Abstract
Tumor cells are confronted to a type I collagen rich environment which regulates cell proliferation and invasion. Biological aging has been associated with structural changes of type I collagen. Here, we address the effect of collagen aging on cell proliferation in a three-dimensional context (3D). We provide evidence for an inhibitory effect of adult collagen, but not of the old one, on proliferation of human fibrosarcoma HT-1080 cells. This effect involves both the activation of the tyrosine kinase Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) and the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2. DDR2 and SHP-2 were less activated in old collagen. DDR2 inhibition decreased SHP-2 phosphorylation in adult collagen and increased cell proliferation to a level similar to that observed in old collagen. In the presence of old collagen, a high level of JAK2 and ERK1/2 phosphorylation was observed while expression of the cell cycle negative regulator p21CIP1 was decreased. Inhibition of DDR2 kinase function also led to an increase in ERK1/2 phosphorylation and a decrease in p21CIP1 expression. Similar signaling profile was observed when DDR2 was inhibited in adult collagen. Altogether, these data suggest that biological collagen aging could increase tumor cell proliferation by reducingthe activation of the key matrix sensor DDR2.

Decreased expression of the β 2 integrin on tumor cells is associated with a reduction in liver metastasis of colorectal cancer in mice. BMC Cancer 2017; 17:827. [PMID: 29207960 PMCID: PMC5718006 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-017-3823-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2016] [Accepted: 11/22/2017] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1; CD18/CD11a) is one of the main adhesion molecules used by immune cells to infiltrate the liver under inflammatory conditions. Recently, the expression of this integrin has also been reported on several solid tumors, including colorectal cancer. However, its functional role in the metastatic progression to the liver remains unknown. Using in vitro assays and an experimental orthotopic in vivo model of liver metastasis, we aimed to elucidate the role of tumor LFA-1 in the metastatic progression by means of the partial depletion of the β2 subunit of LFA-1, required for integrin activation, firm adhesion and signaling. METHODS To do so, we evaluated the effects of β2 reduction on the murine colon carcinoma C26 cell line on their pro-metastatic features in vitro and their metastatic potential in vivo in a mouse model of colon carcinoma metastasis to the liver. RESULTS The reduction in β2 integrin expression correlated with a slower proliferation, and a reduced adhesion and migration of C26 cells in an in vitro setting. Additionally, tumor cells with a reduced in β2 integrin expression were unable to activate the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). This resulted in a recovery of the cytotoxic potential of liver lymphocytes which is compromised by LSECs activated by C26 cells. This was related to the abrogation of RNA expression of inflammatory and angiogenic cytokines by C26 cells after their activation with sICAM-1, the main ligand of β2αL. Furthermore, in vivo tumor cell retention and metastasis were profoundly reduced, along with a decrease in the recruitment and infiltration of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and lymphocytes to the liver. CONCLUSION Taken together, our findings uncovered the modulatory role for the tumor β2 subunit of the LFA-1 integrin in the metastatic progression of colorectal cancer to the liver by impairing activation of liver endothelium and thus, the local immune response in the liver. Besides, this integrin also showed to be critical in vivo for tumor cell retention, cytokine release, leukocyte recruitment and metastasis development. These data support a therapeutical potential of the integrin LFA-1 as a target for the treatment of colorectal liver metastasis.

Abstract
This study evaluated the midterm delivery of doxorubicin in liver specimens from patients (N = 4) with hepatocellular carcinoma treated with drug-eluting embolic (DEE) transarterial chemoembolization. The patients had surgical resection 57, 79, 80 and 105 days after doxorubicin DEE chemoembolization. Doxorubicin concentrations inside embolic particles and in surrounding tissues were assessed by infrared microspectroscopy and microspectrofluorimetry, respectively. Embolic particles still contained doxorubicin and provided sustained drug delivery within targeted tissues 80 days after chemoembolization. Doxorubicin was undetectable after 105 days. In addition, aggregation of embolic particles inside vessel lumina was associated with slower doxorubicin elution and higher tissue concentrations when the number of aggregated embolic particles increased.

Abstract
PURPOSE Type I collagen is one of the most abundant components of extracellular matrix. We previously illustrated that murine fibrosarcoma L929 cells grew well on type I collagen gel and escaped from TNFα-induced cell death. In this study, we investigated the mechanism underlying the protective effect of collagen gel. MATERIAL AND METHODS We used western blot, confocal microscopy, MTT assay and flow cytometry by introducing fluorescence staining to determine the expression levels of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), inhibitory ratio and autophagy. RESULTS L929 cells on collagen gel showed higher expression of NF-κB in the nucleus. Inhibition of NF-κB with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate hydrochloride (PDTC) or knockdown by NF-κB-siRNA canceled the protective effect of collagen gel on L929 cells from TNFα-induced death, suggesting for the role of NF-κB in the protection from cell death. We found a new aspect of the effect of PDTC on L929 cells cultured on collagen gel. PDTC alone without TNFα induced apoptosis in the L929 cells cultured on collagen gel but not the cells on plastic dish. The apoptosis induction of the L929 cells cultured on collagen gel with PDTC was repressed by inhibiting autophagy with chloroquine, an autophagy inhibitor, suggesting that autophagy contributes to the death induced by the treatment with PDTC. Possible underlying mechanism of this finding is discussed. CONCLUSION NF-κB played an important role in protecting the L929 cells cultured on collagen gel from TNFα-induced death.

Abstract
Protein carbamoylation is a non-enzymatic post-translational modification that binds isocyanic acid, which can be derived from the dissociation of urea or from the myeloperoxidase-mediated catabolism of thiocyanate, to the free amino groups of a multitude of proteins. Although the term 'carbamoylation' is usually replaced by the term "carbamylation" in the literature, carbamylation refers to a different chemical reaction (the reversible interaction of CO2 with α and ε-amino groups of proteins). Depending on the altered molecule (for example, collagen, erythropoietin, haemoglobin, low-density lipoprotein or high-density lipoprotein), carbamoylation can have different pathophysiological effects. Carbamoylated proteins have been linked to atherosclerosis, lipid metabolism, immune system dysfunction (such as inhibition of the classical complement pathway, inhibition of complement-dependent rituximab cytotoxicity, reduced oxidative neutrophil burst, and the formation of anti-carbamoylated protein antibodies) and renal fibrosis. In this Review, we discuss the carbamoylation process and evaluate the available biomarkers of carbamoylation (for example, homocitrulline, the percentage of carbamoylated albumin, carbamoylated haemoglobin, and carbamoylated low-density lipoprotein). We also discuss the relationship between carbamoylation and the occurrence of cardiovascular events and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease and assess the effects of strategies to lower the carbamoylation load.

Abstract
Adhesion of monocytes to micro-injuries on arterial walls is an important early step in the occurrence and development of degenerative atherosclerotic lesions. At these injuries, collagen is exposed to the blood stream. We are interested whether age influences monocyte adhesion to collagen under flow, and hence influences the susceptibility to arteriosclerotic lesions. Therefore, we studied adhesion and rolling of human peripheral blood monocytes from old and young individuals on collagen type I coated surface under shear flow. We find that firm adhesion of monocytes to collagen type I is elevated in old individuals. Pre-stimulation by lipopolysaccharide increases the firm adhesion of monocytes homogeneously in older individuals, but heterogeneously in young individuals. Blocking integrin αx showed that adhesion of monocytes to collagen type I is specific to the main collagen binding integrin αxβ2. Surprisingly, we find no significant age-dependent difference in gene expression of integrin αx or integrin β2. However, if all integrins are activated from the outside, no differences exist between the age groups. Altered integrin activation therefore causes the increased adhesion. Our results show that the basal increase in integrin activation in monocytes from old individuals increases monocyte adhesion to collagen and therefore the risk for arteriosclerotic plaques.

Abstract
Type I collagen, or collagen I, is the most abundant protein in the human body and provides strength and resiliency to tissues such as bone, tendons, ligaments, and skin. Collagen I forms macromolecular networks in which resident mesenchymal cells are embedded. Cell-extracellular matrix interactions are critical not only for maintenance of tissue properties but also for guiding and orienting the phenotype of resident cells. Cues from the extracellular matrix have been shown to be critical in pathophysiologies such as fibrosis, aging, and cancer. Hence, the details of these interactions are being scrutinized to better understand the mechanisms of such diseases and conditions. Many in vitro assays, such as cell-embedded collagen lattices, preparation of hydrogels, adhesion assays, etc., have been developed to study various aspects of cell-extracellular matrix interactions. All these in vitro models rely on utilizing high-quality purified collagen I. Here, we provide state-of-the-art collagen I extraction protocol and useful tips to produce high-quality purified collagen I solutions. We also provide a detailed protocol for pepsin digestion of collagen I, for a highly reliable collagen concentration assay, and guidelines for conducting quality controls to validate purified collagen solutions. Collagen I prepared with these procedures is highly suitable for many in vitro applications.

Abstract
The low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1) is a member of Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor (LDLR) family, which is ubiquitously expressed and which is described as a multifunctional endocytic receptor which mediates the clearance of various extracellular matrix molecules including serine proteinases, proteinase-inhibitor complexes, and matricellular proteins. Several studies showed that high LRP-1 expression promotes breast cancer cell invasiveness, and LRP-1 invalidation leads to cell motility abrogation in both tumor and non-tumor cells. Furthermore, our group has reported that LRP-1 silencing prevents the invasion of a follicular thyroid carcinoma despite increased pericellular proteolytic activities from MMP2 and uPA using a 2D-cell culture model. As the use of 3D culture systems is becoming more and more popular due to their promise as enhanced models of tissue physiology, the aim of the present work is to characterize for the first time how the 3D collagen type I matrix may impact the ability of LRP-1 to regulate the migratory properties of thyroid carcinoma using as a model FTC-133 cells. Our results show that inhibition of LRP-1 activity or expression leads to morphological changes affecting cell-matrix interactions, reorganizations of the actin-cytoskeleton especially by inhibiting FAK activation and increasing RhoA activity and MLC-2 phosphorylation, thus preventing cell migration. Taken together, our results suggest that LRP-1 silencing leads to a decrease of cell migratory capacity in a 3D configuration.

Abstract
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global pandemic and drug resistance is rising. Multicellular granuloma formation is the pathological hallmark of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. The membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP or MMP-14) is a collagenase that is key in leukocyte migration and collagen destruction. In patients with TB, induced sputum MT1-MMP mRNA levels were increased 5.1-fold compared with matched controls and correlated positively with extent of lung infiltration on chest radiographs (r = 0.483; p < 0.05). M. tuberculosis infection of primary human monocytes increased MT1-MMP surface expression 31.7-fold and gene expression 24.5-fold. M. tuberculosis-infected monocytes degraded collagen matrix in an MT1-MMP-dependent manner, and MT1-MMP neutralization decreased collagen degradation by 73%. In human TB granulomas, MT1-MMP immunoreactivity was observed in macrophages throughout the granuloma. Monocyte-monocyte networks caused a 17.5-fold increase in MT1-MMP surface expression dependent on p38 MAPK and G protein-coupled receptor-dependent signaling. Monocytes migrating toward agarose beads impregnated with conditioned media from M. tuberculosis-infected monocytes expressed MT1-MMP. Neutralization of MT1-MMP activity decreased this M. tuberculosis network-dependent monocyte migration by 44%. Taken together, we demonstrate that MT1-MMP is central to two key elements of TB pathogenesis, causing collagen degradation and regulating monocyte migration.

Abstract
CD11c/CD18 (αXβ2, p150/95, or complement receptor 4, CR4) is a monocyte/macrophage-enriched integrin that has been reported to bind to a variety of ligands. These include cell surface proteins, extracellular matrix proteins, and soluble ligands. The regulation of ligand binding to CD11c/CD18 has remained poorly understood. Previous work has shown that both α-chain and β-chain phosphorylations of CD11a/CD18 and CD11b/CD18 are needed for activity, but no corresponding studies on CD11c/CD18 have been performed. In this study, we have identified the phosphorylation site of CD11c as Ser-1158 and show that it is pivotal for adherence and phagocytosis.

Abstract
During aging, collagen structure changes, detrimentally affecting tissues' biophysical and biomechanical properties due to an accumulation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs). In this investigation, we conducted a parallel study of microscopic and macroscopic properties of different-aged collagens from newborn to 2-yr-old rats, to examine the effect of aging on fibrillogenesis, mechanical and contractile properties of reconstituted hydrogels from these collagens seeded with or without fibroblasts. In addition to fibrillogenesis of collagen under the conventional conditions, some fibrillogenesis was conducted alongside a 12-T magnetic field, and gelation rate and AGE content were measured. A nondestructive indentation technique and optical coherence tomography were used to determine the elastic modulus and dimensional changes, respectively. It was revealed that in comparison to younger specimens, older collagens exhibited higher viscosity, faster gelation rates, and a higher AGE-specific fluorescence. Exceptionally, only young collagens formed highly aligned fibrils under magnetic fields. The youngest collagen demonstrated a higher elastic modulus and contraction in comparison to the older collagen. We conclude that aging changes collagen monomer structure, which considerably affects the fibrillogenesis process, the architecture of the resulting collagen fibers and the global network, and the macroscopic properties of the formed constructs.

Abstract
The inhibition of unspecific adhesion of human white blood cells is a prerequisite for
applications requiring the control of defined surface interactions. In this study, a
passivation agent based on polyethylene glycol (PEG) for glass surfaces was investigated
for the use with human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). The grafting of 2000
g/mol methoxy-terminated PEG-urea-triethoxysilane (mPEG2000) onto glass surfaces
successfully inhibited unspecific spreading of both human PBMC and platelets in all
experiments. The prevention of surface interactions was independent on the anticoagulant
used during blood collection. The total efficiency to prevent even transient
immobilization of PBMC to the PEG modified surfaces was 97 ± 2%. This makes the
passivation with PEG a well suited surface modification for preventing unspecific surface
interaction in order to study only defined surface interactions of human PBMC.

Abstract
Integrins αLβ2, αMβ2 and αXβ2 are expressed on leukocytes. Their primary ligands are counter transmembrane receptors or plasma proteins, such as intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) or components of complement system (iC3b, iC4b), respectively. Function blocking antibodies for these integrins may also reduce cell adhesion to collagens. To make the first systematical comparison of human α(L)β2, α(M)β2 and α(X)β2 as collagen receptors, we produced the corresponding integrin αI domains both in wild-type and activated form and measured their binding to collagens I-VI. In the "closed" (wild-type) conformation, the α(L)I and α(M)I domains bound with low avidity to their primary ligands, and the interaction with collagens was also very weak. Gain-of-function mutations α(L) I306G, α(L) K287C/K294C and α(M) I316G are considered to mimic "open", activated αI domains. The binding of these activated αI domains to the primary ligands was clearly stronger and they also recognized collagens with moderate avidity (K(d)400 nM). After activation, the αLI domain favored collagen I (K(d )≈ 80 nM) when compared to collagen IV. The integrin αXI domain acted in a very different manner since already in native, wild-type form it bound to collagen IV and iC3b (K(d) ≈ 200-400 nM). Antibodies against αXβ2 and αMβ2 blocked promyelocytic leukemia cell adhesion to the collagenous GFOGER motif, a binding site for the β1 integrin containing collagen receptors. In brief, leukocyte β2 integrins may act as collagen receptors in a heterodimer specific manner.

Abstract
Immunology often conveys the image of large molecules, either in the soluble state or in the membrane of leukocytes, forming multiple contacts with a target for actions of the immune system. Avidity names the ability of a polyvalent molecule to form multiple connections of the same kind with ligands tethered to the same surface. Polyvalent interactions are vastly stronger than their monovalent equivalent. In the present review, the functional consequences of polyvalent interactions are explored in a perspective of recent theoretical advances in understanding the thermodynamics of such binding. From insights on the structural biology of soluble pattern recognition molecules as well as adhesion molecules in the cell membranes or in their proteolytically shed form, this review documents the prominent role of polyvalent interactions in making the immune system a formidable barrier to microbial infection as well as constituting a significant challenge to the application of nanomedicines.

Abstract
Leucocytes are highly motile cells. Their ability to migrate into tissues and organs is dependent on cell adhesion molecules. The integrins are a family of heterodimeric transmembrane cell adhesion molecules that are also signalling receptors. They are involved in many biological processes, including the development of metazoans, immunity, haemostasis, wound healing and cell survival, proliferation and differentiation. The leucocyte-restricted β2 integrins comprise four members, namely αLβ2, αMβ2, αXβ2 and αDβ2, which are required for a functional immune system. In this paper, the structure, functional regulation and signalling properties of these integrins are reviewed.

Abstract
In diabetes, glycation is a nonenzymatic posttranslational modification resulting from the bonding of a sugar molecule with a protein or lipid followed by oxidation, resulting in the development of advanced glycation end products (AGE). Like glycation, carbamylation is a posttranslational protein modification that is associated with AGE formation. Glycation of extracellular matrix proteins and low-density lipoprotein with subsequent deposition in the vessel wall could contribute to inflammatory response and atheroma formation. It is logical to extrapolate that carbamylation may result in modification of vessel wall proteins similar to glycation, and predispose to atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Macrophage tissue infiltration is a critical step in the immune response against microorganisms and is also associated with disease progression in chronic inflammation and cancer. Macrophages are constitutively equipped with specialized structures called podosomes dedicated to extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. We recently reported that these structures play a critical role in trans-matrix mesenchymal migration mode, a protease-dependent mechanism. Podosome molecular components and their ECM-degrading activity have been extensively studied in two dimensions (2D), but yet very little is known about their fate in three-dimensional (3D) environments. Therefore, localization of podosome markers and proteolytic activity were carefully examined in human macrophages performing mesenchymal migration. Using our gelled collagen I 3D matrix model to obligate human macrophages to perform mesenchymal migration, classical podosome markers including talin, paxillin, vinculin, gelsolin, cortactin were found to accumulate at the tip of F-actin-rich cell protrusions together with β1 integrin and CD44 but not β2 integrin. Macrophage proteolytic activity was observed at podosome-like protrusion sites using confocal fluorescence microscopy and electron microscopy. The formation of migration tunnels by macrophages inside the matrix was accomplished by degradation, engulfment and mechanic compaction of the matrix. In addition, videomicroscopy revealed that 3D F-actin-rich protrusions of migrating macrophages were as dynamic as their 2D counterparts. Overall, the specifications of 3D podosomes resembled those of 2D podosome rosettes rather than those of individual podosomes. This observation was further supported by the aspect of 3D podosomes in fibroblasts expressing Hck, a master regulator of podosome rosettes in macrophages. In conclusion, human macrophage podosomes go 3D and take the shape of spherical podosome rosettes when the cells perform mesenchymal migration. This work sets the scene for future studies of molecular and cellular processes regulating macrophage trans-migration.

Abstract
The monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1)–driven activation of CC-type chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) is one of the early key events to induce monocyte migration toward centers of inflammation. In this work, the authors analyzed MCP-1 internalization into primary human monocytes using partially automated liquid handling, automated fluorescence microscopic imaging, and a specific image analysis algorithm. A fluorophore-conjugated form of MCP-1 was rapidly endocytosed and retained by the monocytes. The CCR2 dependency of the MCP-1 internalization was demonstrated by the use of BMS CCR2 22, a CCR2-specific antagonist. The apparent inhibitory potencies of a series of small-molecule CCR2 antagonists were determined and compared in five assay formats, including the high-content analysis assay described in this work. Interestingly, some but not all antagonists showed markedly different inhibitory behaviors in the five readout systems, with an up to more than 100-fold difference between the highest and the lowest apparent inhibitory potencies. These findings raise the distinct possibility that some CCR2 antagonists are capable of discriminating between different functional states of the CCR2 receptor(s) and suggest strategies for the identification of functionally selective CCR2 antagonists with increased therapeutic advantage over nonselective antagonists.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM) components, in addition to their structural functions, interact with cell surface receptors and intracellular components to modulate the transduction of signals for cell growth, differentiation, migration, proliferation, polarization, apoptosis and inflammation. Our previous findings in the gilthead seabream (Sparus aurata L.), a marine seasonal hermaphrodite teleost fish, have shown that both endocrine and immune stimuli modulate the expression of matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of MMP (TIMPs). In addition, collagen type I (COL1) induces the expression of some pro-inflammatory cytokines and MMPs in professional phagocytes. Consequently, in this study we use real-time RT-PCR to analyze the gene expression profile of several ECM-related molecules (MMP-2, -9 and -13, TIMP-2a, and -2b, COL1A1, and integrin beta1a) in different organs of adult specimens as well as in response to innate immune challenges. Our results showed that liver had the lowest basal levels of them, although they were clearly modulated during injury and infection. In the same way, ECM-related molecules seem to participate in pro-inflammatory processes, being of particular interest COL1 which is synthesized by immune cells and is able to act as autocrine/paracrine stimulus for them. Lastly, we propose that the observed correlations between ECM-related molecules during the inflammatory response should be considered to obtain a more accurate picture of their roles in this process.

Abstract
Background The cell microenvironment, especially extracellular matrix proteins, plays an important role in tumor cell response to chemotherapeutic drugs. The present study was designed to investigate whether this microenvironment can influence the antimigratory effect of an anthracycline drug, doxorubicin, when tumor cells are grown in a matrix of type I collagen, a three-dimensional (3D) context which simulates a natural microenvironment. Methods To this purpose, we studied the migratory parameters, the integrin expression, and the activation state of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and GTPase RhoA involved in the formation of focal adhesions and cell movement. These parameters were evaluated at non toxic concentrations which did not affect HT1080 cell proliferation. Results We show that while doxorubicin decreased cell migration properties by 70% in conventional two-dimensional (2D) culture, this effect was completely abolished in a 3D one. Regarding the impact of doxorubicin on the focal adhesion complexes, unlike in 2D systems, the data indicated that the drug neither affected β1 integrin expression nor the state of phosphorylation of FAK and RhoA. Conclusion This study suggests the lack of antiinvasive effect of doxorubicin in a 3D environment which is generally considered to better mimic the phenotypic behaviour of cells in vivo. Consistent with the previously shown resistance to the cytotoxic effect in a 3D context, our results highlight the importance of the matrix configuration on the tumor cell response to antiinvasive drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a ubiquitously expressed cell surface protein reported to be involved in mediating cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions. Prior work has demonstrated that APP co-localizes with beta1 integrin in different cell types. METHODS In an effort to determine the function of APP on monocytic lineage cells, in particular, the human monocyte cell line, THP-1, was used to assess the role of APP during adhesion to the extracelluar matrix component type I collagen. RESULTS Pull-down assays demonstrated that THP-1 adhesion to collagen stimulated a tyrosine kinase-associated signaling response which included subsequent phosphorylation of p38 MAP kinase and increased association of APP with alpha2beta1 integrin, specifically. In addition, cell adhesion was dependent upon APP expression since APP siRNA knockdown attenuated THP-1 adhesion to collagen compared to mock transfected controls. One consequence of the tyrosine kinase-dependent signaling response was increased secretion of interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and Abeta1-40 but not the Abeta1-42 fragment of APP. Increased secretion of IL-1beta was dependent upon p38 MAP kinase activity while Abeta1-40 secretion required Src family kinase activity since the specific p38 inhibitor, SB202190, and the Src family kinase inhibitor, PP2, attenuated IL-1beta and Abeta1-40 secretion, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that APP is involved in classic integrin-dependent tyrosine kinase-associated adhesion and activation of peripheral monocytic cells. Moreover, divergent APP-dependent signaling is required for increased secretion of both IL-1beta and Abeta1-40 as a component of the adhesion-dependent change in phenotype. This suggests that APP may have a broad role in not only mediating cell-matrix adhesion but also in the function of peripheral immune cells.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal soft tissue injuries are very common, yet poorly understood. We investigated molecular-level changes in collagen caused by tensile overload of bovine tail tendons in vitro. Previous investigators concluded that tensile tendon rupture resulted in collagen denaturation, but our study suggests otherwise. Based on contemporary collagen biophysics, we hypothesized that tensile overload would lead to reduced thermal stability without change in the nativity of the molecular conformation. The thermal behavior of collagen from tail tendons ruptured in vitro at two strain rates (0.01 s(-1) and 10 s(-1)) was measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The 1,000-fold difference in strain rate was used since molecular mechanisms that determine mechanical behavior are thought to be strain rate-dependent. DSC revealed that the collagen in tensile overloaded tendons was less thermally stable by 3 degrees to 5 degrees C relative to undamaged controls and was not denatured since there was no change in enthalpy of denaturation. The decrease in thermal stability occurred throughout the overloaded regions, independent of rupture site, and was greater in specimens ruptured at the lower strain rate. The deformation mechanism apparently involves disruption of the lattice structure of the collagen fibrils and greatly increases the molecular freedom of the collagen molecules, leading to reduced thermal molecular stability and the previously reported increased proteolysis. This has important implications for understanding soft tissue injuries, disease etiology and treatment, and for developing tissue engineered products with improved durability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tissue factor (TF), the main trigger of coagulation cascade, is a major component of the atherosclerotic plaque. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are recognized as key mediators of extracellular matrix remodeling during inflammation. It was recently emphasized that both TF and MMP-9 were overexpressed in atherosclerotic plaques, suggesting a role of both molecules in plaque instability and thrombogenicity. OBJECTIVE The present study was designed to determine whether human monocytes could co-express TF and MMP-9 when the cells interact with type I collagen, a major component of the extracellular matrix and atherosclerotic plaque. METHODS Human monocytes were isolated by elutriation and incubated in collagen I-coated plates. Tissue factor and MMP-9 expression were examined using real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction, flow cytometry, western blot and zymography. The activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) and the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in TF and MMP-9 production was studied using gel shift experiments, antioxidants pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) and N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), and apocynin (a specific inhibitor of the NADPH oxidase). RESULTS Type I collagen induced TF expression and increased MMP-9 production. In addition, the pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), produced in response to collagen I, increased MMP-9 production. PDTC and NAC inhibited NF-kappaB activation during monocyte interaction with collagen I. Finally, both antioxidants and apocynin decreased the expression of TF, TNF-alpha, and MMP-9. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate a new mechanism in the monocyte expression of TF and MMP-9 in response to collagen I involving a ROS-dependent pathway linked to the activation of the NADPH oxidase.

Abstract
Collagens are large, triple-helical proteins that form fibrils and network-like structures in the extracellular matrix. The collagens may have participated in the evolution of the metazoans from their very earliest origins. Cell adhesion receptors, such as the integrins, are at least as old as the collagens. Still, the early metazoan cells might not have been able to anchor directly to collagen fibrils, since the integrin-type collagen receptors have only been identified in vertebrates. Instead, the early metazoans may have used integrin-type receptors in the recognition of collagen-binding glycoproteins. It is possible that specialized, high-avidity collagen-receptor integrins have become instrumental for the evolution of bone, cartilage, circulatory and immune systems in the chordates. In vertebrates, specific collagen-binding receptor tyrosine kinases send signals into cells after adhesion to collagen. These receptors are members of the discoidin domain receptor (DDR) group. The evolutionary history of DDRs is poorly known at this time. DDR orthologs have been found in many invertebrates, but their ability to function as collagen receptors has not yet been tested. The two main categories of collagens, fibrillar and non-fibrillar, already exist in the most primitive metazoans, such as the sponges. Interestingly, both integrin and DDR families seem to have members that favor either one or the other of these two groups of collagens.

Abstract
The advent of moderate dilatations in ascending aortas is often accompanied by structural modifications of the main components of the aortic tissue, elastin and collagen. In this study, we have undertaken an approach based on FTIR microscopy coupled to a curve-fitting procedure to analyze secondary structure modifications in these proteins in human normal and pathological aortic tissues. We found that the outcome of the aortic pathology is strongly influenced by these proteins, which are abundant in the media of the aortic wall, and that the advent of an aortic dilatation is generally accompanied by a decrease of parallel beta-sheet structures. Elastin, essentially composed of beta-sheet structures, seems to be directly related to these changes and therefore indicative of the elastic alteration of the aortic wall. Conventional microscopy and confocal fluorescence microscopy were used to compare FTIR microscopy results with the organization of the elastic fibers present in the tissues. This in-vitro study on 6 patients (three normal and three pathologic), suggests that such a spectroscopic marker, specific to aneurismal tissue characterization, could be important information for surgeons who face the dilemma of moderate aortic tissue dilatation of the ascending aortas.

Abstract
In solid tumors, the cell microenvironment appears to be a key determinant in the emergence of drug resistance, a major obstacle to the successful use of antitumor drugs. Our aim was to determine whether type I collagen and fibronectin, proteins of the extracellular matrix, were able to influence the antimigratory properties induced by the antitumor drug doxorubicin. These properties were investigated at doxorubicin concentrations of 10 and 20 nM, which do not affect cell proliferation on a 24 h drug exposure. Using videomicroscopy, we found that these subtoxic doses of doxorubicin were sufficient to inhibit individual tumor cell motion on two-dimensional plastic surfaces. Such a drug treatment induced a dramatic disturbance of actin stress fiber formation and of vinculin distribution in 80% of cells. In contrast, on extracellular matrix proteins, cell speed was unaffected by drug and perturbation of both actin network and vinculin distribution was detected in only 50% of cells, suggesting a protective effect of the microenvironment. In addition, the phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase and GTPase RhoA was less affected by doxorubicin with cells cultured on extracellular matrix proteins. In conclusion, our findings indicate that the cell microenvironment prevents drug-dependent inhibition of cell migration in vitro. They reveal cell locomotion as a key factor of microenvironment-mediated drug resistance. This new concept needs to be exploited in in vitro models to optimize the screening of new antimigratory drugs.

Abstract
Background The tripeptide feG (D-Phe-D-Glu-Gly) is a potent anti-inflammatory peptide that reduces the severity of type I immediate hypersensitivity reactions, and inhibits neutrophil chemotaxis and adhesion to tissues. feG also reduces the expression of β1-integrin on circulating neutrophils, but the counter ligands involved in the anti-adhesive actions of the peptide are not known. In this study the effects of feG on the adhesion of rat peritoneal leukocytes and extravasated neutrophils to several different integrin selective substrates were evaluated. Results The adhesion of peritoneal leukocytes and extravasated neutrophils from rats to adhesive proteins coated to 96-well plates was dependent upon magnesium (Mg2+) ion, suggestive of integrin-mediated adhesion. feG inhibited leukocyte adhesion, but only if the cells were stimulated with PAF (10-9M), indicating that feG's actions in vitro require cell activation. In the dose range of 10-10M to 10-12M feG inhibited the adhesion of peritoneal leukocytes to fibrinogen and fibronectin, but not IgG, vitronectin or ICAM-1. feG inhibited the binding of extravasated neutrophils to heparin, IgG, fibronectin and CD16 antibody. Antigen-challenge of sensitized rats reduced the adhesion of peritoneal leukocytes to most substrates and abolished the inhibitory effects of feG. However, pretreating the animals with intraperitoneal feG (100 μg/kg) 18 h before collecting the cells from the antigen-challenged animal restored the inhibition of adhesion by in vitro feG of peritoneal leukocytes and extravasated neutrophils to fibronectin. Conclusion The modulation of leukocyte adhesion by feG appears to involve actions on αMβ2 integrin, with a possible interaction with the low affinity FcγRIII receptor (CD16). The modulation of cell adhesion by feG is dual in nature. When administered in vivo, feG prevents inflammation-induced reductions in cell adhesion, as well as restoring its inhibitory effect in vitro. The mechanism by which in vivo treatment with feG exerts these effects remains to be elucidated.

Abstract
Disruption of the oxidant/antioxidant balance in the lung is thought to be a key step in the development of many airway pathologies. Hence, antioxidant enzymes play key roles in controlling or preventing pulmonary diseases related to oxidative stress. The superoxide dismutases (SOD) are a family of enzymes that play a pivotal role protecting tissues from damage by oxidant stress by scavenging superoxide anion, which prevents the formation of other more potent oxidants such as peroxynitrite and hydroxyl radical. Extracellular SOD (EC-SOD) is found predominantly in the extracellular matrix of tissues and is ideally situated to prevent cell and tissue damage initiated by extracellularly produced ROS. EC-SOD has been shown to be protective in several models of interstitial lung disease, including pulmonary fibrosis. In addition, alterations in EC-SOD expression are also present in human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). This review discusses EC-SOD regulation in response to pulmonary fibrosis in animals and humans and reviews possible mechanisms by which EC-SOD may protect against fibrosis.
