Abstract:
Adhesive structures between cells and with the surrounding matrix are essential for the development of multicellular organisms. In addition to providing mechanical integrity, they are key signalling centres providing feedback on the extracellular environment to the cell interior, and vice versa. During development, mitosis and repair, cell adhesions must undergo extensive remodelling. Post-translational modifications of proteins within these complexes serve as switches for activity. Tyrosine phosphorylation is an important modification in cell adhesion that is dynamically regulated by the prot

Abstract:
Adhesions are an abnormal union of membranous surfaces. They are a painful and expensive consequence of abdominal surgeries, specifically in the peritoneal cavity. This complication requires a second surgery to remove the problem, known as adhesiolysis, which we are trying to avoid. Current solutions to adhesion formation either lack efficacy or induce an inflammatory response in the peritoneum. Our focus is to develop a post-surgical adhesion prevention polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) film, composed of an optimal ratio of chitosan (Chi) and polygalacturonic acid (PgA) to prevent adhesion format

ABSTRACT The balance of transition between distinct adhesion types contributes to the regulation of mesenchymal cell migration, and the characteristic association of adhesions with actin filaments led us to question the role of actin filament-associating proteins in the transition between adhesive states.

Abstract:
The inhibitory properties of a panel of snake-venom-derived RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) proteins, including the disintegrins kistrin, elegantin and albolabrin, and the neurotoxin homologue dendroaspin, were investigated in a platelet-adhesion assay using three immobilized ligands of the glycoprotein IIb-IIIa complex (alpha IIb beta 3), namely fibrinogen, fibronectin and von Willebrand factor (vWF). The snake-venom proteins preferentially inhibited the adhesion of ADP-treated platelets to one or more of the immobilized ligands. Kistrin and dendroaspin exhibited similar inhibitory characteristics, abrogat

Abstract:
Ca2+-dependent cell–cell adhesion is regulated by the cadherin family of cell adhesion proteins. Cadherins form trans-interactions on opposing cell surfaces which result in weak cell–cell adhesion. Stronger cell–cell adhesion occurs by clustering of cadherins and through changes in the organization of the actin cytoskeleton. Although cadherins were thought to bind directly to the actin cytoskeleton through cytoplasmic proteins, termed α- and β-catenin, recent studies with purified proteins indicate that the interaction is not direct, and instead an allosteric switch in α-catenin may mediate ac

Integrin adhesion complexes (IACs) form mechanochemical connections between the extracellular matrix and actin cytoskeleton and mediate phenotypic responses via posttranslational modifications. Here, we investigate the modularity and robustness of the IAC network to pharmacological perturbation of the key IAC signaling components focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src. FAK inhibition using AZ13256675 blocked FAKY397 phosphorylation but did not alter IAC composition, as reported by mass spectrometry. IAC composition was also insensitive to Src inhibition using AZD0530 alone or in combination with

Abstract:
Cell spreading requires the coupling of actin-driven membrane protrusion and integrin-mediated adhesion to the extracellular matrix. The integrin-activating adaptor protein kindlin-2 plays a central role for cell adhesion and membrane protrusion by directly binding and recruiting paxillin to nascent adhesions. Here, we report that kindlin-2 has a dual role during initial cell spreading: it binds paxillin via the pleckstrin homology and F0 domains to activate Rac1, and it directly associates with the Arp2/3 complex to induce Rac1-mediated membrane protrusions.

Abstract:
It is well established that cadherin protein levels impact canonical Wnt signaling through binding and sequestering β-catenin (β-cat) from T-cell factor family transcription factors. Whether changes in intercellular adhesion can affect β-cat signaling and the mechanism through which this occurs has remained unresolved. We show that axin, APC2, GSK-3β and N-terminally phosphorylated forms of β-cat can localize to cell–cell contacts in a complex that is molecularly distinct from the cadherin–catenin adhesive complex. Nonetheless, cadherins can promote the N-terminal phosphorylation of β-cat, and

Abstract:
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of malignant death among women. A crucial feature of metastatic cancers is their propensity to lose adhesion to the underlying basement membrane as they transition to a motile phenotype and invade surrounding tissue. Attachment to the extracellular matrix is mediated by a complex of adhesion proteins, including integrins, signaling molecules, actin and actin-binding proteins, and scaffolding proteins. Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is pivotal for the organization of focal contacts and maturation into focal adhesions, and disruption of this process is a ha

Tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) creates a high-affinity binding site for the src homology 2 domain of the Src family of tyrosine kinases. Assembly of a complex between FAK and Src kinases may serve to regulate the subcellular localization and the enzymatic activity of members of the Src family of kinases. We show that simultaneous overexpression of FAK and pp60c-srcor p59fynresults in the enhancement of the tyrosine phosphorylation of a limited number of cellular substrates, including paxillin.

Chemotaxis (i.e., directed migration) of hepatic stellate cells to areas of inflammation is a requisite event in the liver's response to injury. Previous studies of signaling pathways that regulate stellate cell migration suggest a key role for focal adhesions, but the exact function of these protein complexes in motility remains unclear. Focal adhesions attach a cell to its substrate and therefore must be regulated in a highly coordinated manner during migration. To test the hypothesis that focal adhesion turnover is an essential early event for chemotaxis in stellate cells, we employed a liv

The CD4 protein is expressed on a subset of human T lymphocytes that recognize antigen in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules. Using Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing human CD4, we have previously demonstrated that the CD4 protein can mediate cell adhesion by direct interaction with MHC class II molecules. In T lymphocytes, CD4 can also function as a signaling molecule, presumably through its intracellular association with p56lck, a member of the src family of protein tyrosine kinases.

Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a critical role in the promotion of epithelial cell proliferation and migration. Previous studies have suggested a cooperative role between EGFR and integrin signalling pathways that enable efficient adhesion and migration but the mechanisms controlling this remain poorly defined. Here, we show that EGFR forms a complex with focal adhesion kinase in epithelial cells. Surprisingly, this complex enhances local Src activity at focal adhesions to promote phosphorylation of the cytoskeletal adaptor protein ezrin at Y478, leading to actomyosin contractil
