title: [Isolation and characteristics of ligand specificity of VLA-1 integrin from human smooth muscles].
abstract: Using affinity chromatography with immobilized monoclonal antibodies to the beta 1-subunit of human integrin, a total integrin fraction (subfamily beta 1) was isolated from the detergent extract of human smooth muscle (uterus). Immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting with specific antibodies revealed integrins VLA-1 and VLA-5. The former was isolated in a homogeneous state by chromatography on immobilized type I collagen in the presence of 1 mM Mn2+. The pure receptor yield was 2-4 mg per 400 g of smooth muscle tissue. Analysis of substrate specificity of VLA-1 in the liposome test revealed that this integrin possesses a broad spectrum of ligand specificity and can interact via a Ca2+, Mg(2+)-dependent mechanism with interstitial collagens of I, II and III types and with basal membrane proteins (type IV collagen and laminin). VLA-1 does not interact with fibronectin, thrombospondin or albumin. Denaturation of type I collagen decreases the liposome binding 5-7-fold. The peptide Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser-Pro added to the incubation mixture does not inhibit the liposome interaction with incorporated VLA-1 integrin, type I collagen and laminin.
