Research Abstract |
1. We have previously demonstrated that chick embryo fibroblasts synthesize and secrete a large chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (PG-M) that binds to fibronectin. We now report that chick embryo fibroblasts, BHK cells, and many other cell lines failed to adhere to fibronectin-coated substrates when PG-M was added to the medium. PG-M was also shown to inhibit the adhesion of fibroblastic cells to collagen-, or vitronection-coated substrates as well as adhesion of epithelial cells to fibronectin-coated substrates. 2. Treatment of the proteoglycan with either proteolytic enzymes or chondroitinase abolished its inhibitory effects on the fibronectin-mediated BHK cell adhesion. 3. Adhesion of the cells to laminin or GRGDS-derivatized serum albumin (RGD-containing molecules with no capacity to bind PG-M) was also inhibited by PG-M. These results indicate that the intact proteoglycan from, but not core proteinor chondroitin sulfate-free forms, is responsible for the activity, and that direct binding between PG-M and fibronectin, if any, is not a cause of the inhibition by PG-M. 4. When the immobilization of added PG-M to available plastic surfaces of fibronectin- (or GRGDS-serum albumin-) coated dishes was blocked by pretreating the dishes with serum albumin, the inhibitory effect of PG-M was abolished, suggesting that only the immobilized fraction of PG-M can act as a cell adhesion inhibitor. In immobilized form, both cartilage chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (PG-H) and chondroitin sulfate-derivatized serum albumin also inhibited cell adhesion. In contrast, heparan sulfate proteoglycan form LD and heparan sulfate-derivatized serum albumin had far lower inhibitory activities, indicating that the active site for the interaction between cells and PG-M is on the chondroitin sulfate chain.
