Association of extracellular matrix proteins fibulin‐1 and fibulin‐2 with fibronectin in bone marrow stroma

Abstract: Summary. Extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, together with growth factors and stromal cells, regulate haematopoietic cell development in bone marrow (BM). We report here expression of ECM proteins fibulin-1 and fibulin-2 in mouse BM. In other tissues, fibulin-1 and fibulin-2 associate with fibronectin and other ECM proteins. Fibulin-2 has also been found to adhere to cells via b3 integrins. We studied the association of fibulins with fibronectin in BM stroma. By confocal microscopy, fibulin-1 and fibulin-2 i… Show more

“…An example of such a protein is fibulin-2, a 1195-residue polypeptide preceded by a 26-residue signal peptide that mainly resides in the basement membranes and other connective tissue compartments (152). Fibulin-2 is expressed in heart, placenta, and ovarian tissues (153), and has been shown to link the cells to the basement membrane in epithelial (154) and hematopoietic cells (155). This linkage contributes to cell migration in epicardial cells during coronary vasculogenesis and angiogenesis (156), and in smooth muscle cells during atherosclerotic lesions (157).…”

“…A number of constitutively downregulated genes have reported roles in cellular adhesion processes. These include: fibronectin 1 (FN1), a major ECM component required for integrin-mediated signalling (reviewed in Danen and Yamada, 2001); fibulin 2 (FBLN2), which colocalises with FN1 in vivo (Gu et al, 2000); and the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP 3), which is involved in regulating FN1 degradation (Fata et al, 2001). Given these changes, it is possible that ErbB-2 overexpression may alter the adhesive properties of these cells (see below).…”

“…Fibulin-1 was purified with RIDAGTT peptide. Fibulin-1 is present in the stroma of several ovarian cancers and cysts (22) and in normal bone marrow stroma (23). It also makes breast cancer cells more resistant to doxorubicin (24).…”
