Vinculin Is Indispensable for Repopulation by Hematopoietic Stem Cells, Independent of Integrin Function

Abstract: Vinculin is a highly conserved actin-binding protein that is localized in integrin-mediated focal adhesion complexes. Although critical roles have been proposed for integrins in hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function, little is known about the involvement of intracellular focal adhesion proteins in HSC functions. This study showed that the ability of c-Kit ؉ Sca1 ؉ Lin ؊ HSCs to support reconstitution of hematopoiesis after competitive transplantation was severely impaired by lentiviral transduction with short… Show more

“…Vinculin, a highly conserved actin-binding protein, is frequently used as a marker for focal adhesion formation and integrinmediated cell-ECM interactions [45,46], and was examined through immunocytochemical staining. Intriguing results showed the expressions of vinculin and focal adhesion as well as the intracellular F-actin were highly enhanced on 5(10)MCPC surfaces and suppressed on CPC and 20MCPC.…”

“…[84][85][86][87][88] As described for anchorage-dependent cells, it has also been shown for HSCs § that adhesion to the ECM is talin-dependent. 89 HSCs are assumed to express kindlin-3 (synonym: FERMT3), because this member of the kindlin family is specifically found in hematopoietic cells and platelets, including hematopoietic organs during murine fetal development and bone marrow mononuclear cells in adult mice. 90,91 Following the engagement of talin and kindlin, vinculin binds to talin and fosters the clustering of multiple activated integrins.…”
