VLA‐2 is a collagen receptor on endothelial cells

Abstract: Summary In order to identify cell-substrate adhesion receptors on vascular endothelium, murine monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) were raised against human umbilical vein endotheiial cells (HUVE). One anli-HUVE MoAb, RMACl 1. identified the adhesion receptor VLA-2 as it immunoprecipitated a non-covalently linked heterodimer of 160 kD and 130 kD. which was identical to the heterodimer immunoprecipitated by the anti-VLA-2 MoAb. 12F1 and 5E8. Furthermore, proteolytic peptide maps of the VLA-2 a-and [i-chains were highl… Show more

“…Anti-human ␣2 MAbs AK7 (33,65), which (according to flow cytometry results) binds MA104 cell surfaceexpressed ␣2␤1 integrin (17,57) and blocks SA11 infection of MA104 cells by 50 to 60% at 12 to 40 g/ml (17), and P1E6 were purchased from Pharmingen, San Diego, Calif., and Invitrogen, Burwood, Victoria, Australia, respectively. Antihuman ␣2 MAb 12F1 and anti-␤1 MAb B3B11 were purchased from Chemicon, Temecula, Calif. Purified anti-human ␣2 MAbs HAS3 and HAS4 were provided by F. Watt, Imperial Cancer Research Fund, London, England.…”

“…Given the large distance between the major binding locations of a3 and a6 (a chain long arm) and peptide A on the laminin 1 molecule (see Figure 2), it is unlikely that peptide A is inhibiting interaction with these integrins. Two further integrin a types have been described which can bind to both laminin 1 and collagens, al and a2 [17,[39][40][41]. There is ample evidence in the literature for abundant expression of a2 integrin on HUVECs in culture, and for a major role of this integrin in attachment of these cells to laminin 1 and collagen [17,35,40,42,43].…”
