Ganglioside-dependent adhesion events of human neuroblastoma cells regulated by the RGDS-dependent fibronectin receptor and proteoglycans.
Human neuroblastoma cells (Platt and La-N1) adhere and extend neurites on a ganglioside GM1-binding substratum provided by cholera toxin B (CTB). These adhesive responses, similar to those on plasma fibronectin (pFN), require the mediation of one or more cell-surface proteins [G. Mugnai and L. A. Culp (1987) Exp. Cell Res. 169, 328]. The involvement of two pFN receptor molecules in ganglioside GM1-mediated responses on CTB have now been tested. In order to test the role of cellular FN binding to its glycoprotein receptor integrin, a soluble peptide containing the Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (RGDS) sequence was added to the medium. It did not inhibit attachment on CTB but completely inhibited formation of neurites; in contrast, the RGDS peptide minimally inhibited attachment or neurite formation on pFN. Once formed, neurites on CTB became resistant to the peptide. In order to test the role of cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HS-PG), two approaches were used. First, the HS-binding protein platelet factor-4 (PF4) was used to dilute CTB or pFN on the substratum or, alternatively, added to the medium. Diluting the substratum ligand with PF4 had no effects on attachment on either CTB or pFN. However, neurite formation on CTB was readily inhibited and on pFN partially inhibited; the effects of PF4 were far greater than a similar dilution with nonbinding albumin. When PF4 was added to the medium of cells, attachment on either substratum was unaffected as was neurite outgrowth on pFN, revealing differences in PF4's inhibition as the substratum-bound or medium-borne component. In contrast, PF4 in the medium at low concentrations (1 microgram/ml) was highly inhibitory for neurite formation on CTB. The second approach utilized the addition of bovine cartilage dermatan sulfate proteoglycan (DS-PG), shown to bind to pFN as well as to substratum-bound CTB by ELISA, or cartilage chondroitin sulfate/keratan sulfate proteoglycan (CS/KS-PG) to the substratum or to the medium. At low concentrations, DS-PG but not CS/KS-PG actually stimulated neurite formation on CTB while at higher concentrations DS-PG completely inhibited attachment and neurite formation. While DS-PG partially inhibited attachment on pFN, it had no effect on neurite formation of the attached cells. Neuroblastoma cells adhered to some extent to substrata coated only with DS-PG, indicating "receptors" for PGs that permit stable interaction.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
