Reciprocal raft–receptor interactions and the assembly of adhesion complexes

Abstract: Cell adhesion complexes are critical for the physical coordination of cell-cell interactions and the morphogenesis of tissues and organs. Many adhesion receptors are anchored to the plasma membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) moiety and are thereby partitioned into membrane rafts. In this review, we focus on reciprocal interactions between rafts and adhesion molecules, leading to receptor clustering and raft expansion and stability. A model for a three-stage adhesion complex assembly process is als… Show more

“…The effects of Ca 2ϩ signaling on HA-induced EC barrier regulation are currently under investigation. Caveolin-enriched microdomains or lipid rafts, are important plasma membrane microdomains that regulate numerous EC functions (45,46). CD44 localization in lipid rafts is important for HA-mediated signaling (21,30) as cholesterol depletion blocks both low and high MW HA-induced EC barrier responses.…”

“…Recently, the concept of "lipid rafts," or specialized membrane lipid microdomains, has been suggested as a mechanism whereby signaling, trafficking, and the assembly of adhesion complexes takes place (Brown and London, 2000;Simons and Toomre, 2000;Harris and Siu, 2002), although dissenting views have been offered (Munro, 2003). Neuronal and myelin membranes may have several kinds of rafts, because various proteins can segregate into biochemically distinct entities depending on the experimental and physiological conditions (Madore et al, 1999;Hakomori, 2002;Taylor et al, 2002;Marta et al, 2003).…”
