Thy-1-mediated cell–cell contact induces astrocyte migration through the engagement of αVβ3 integrin and syndecan-4

Abstract: Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins occurs through interactions with integrins that bind to Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) tripeptides, and syndecan-4, which recognizes the heparin-binding domain (HBD) of other proteins. Both receptors trigger signaling pathways, including those that activate RhoGTPases such as RhoA and Rac1. This sequence of events modulates cell adhesion to the ECM and cell migration. Using a neuron-astrocyte model, we have reported that the neuronal protein Thy-1 engages αVβ3 integr… Show more

“…2B). Importantly, neither of these mutated Thy-1 proteins individually stimulates cell adhesion or migration [11,19]; however, the addition of low amounts of BzATP (<10 M) with the Thy-1 mutant that binds Syndecan-4, suffices to…”

“…Previous studies in the area of molecular biology revealed that neuron-glia adhesion is mediated by the binding of neuronal Thy-1 and glial integrin a v b 3 and that this binding occurs in less than 20 min after cell-cell contact. 20 The Thy-1/integrin interaction can be blocked by the RGD peptide, 21 and hence adding the peptide to the bath solution can decrease the extent of neuronal abduction by the glia sheet. Alternatively, pre-treating the glial cell membrane with an anti-fouling agent such as polyethylene glycol or polyvinyl alcohol could also have positive effects in reducing the extent of neuron-glia adhesion.…”
