title: Vitamin E succinate induction of HL-60 cell adhesion: a role for fibronectin and a 72-kDa fibronectin-binding molecule.
abstract: HL-60 cells, growing as single cells in suspension, exhibit marked cell-cell adhesion when treated for 24 hours with 10 micrograms/ml RRR-alpha-tocopheryl succinate, also called vitamin E succinate (VES). VES-induced cell-cell adhesion is dependent on divalent cations and a functional cytoskeleton and is protein mediated. Cell adhesion molecules CD11a/CD18, CD11b/CD18, CD29, and CD54 do not appear to be mediating VES-induced cell adhesion. HL-60 cells treated with VES adhere to fibronectin-coated plastic and secrete elevated levels of fibronectin. A 72-kDa fibronectin-binding membrane molecule was detected on VES-treated HL-60 cells, and antibodies to fibronectin were shown to inhibit VES-induced cell aggregation. VES induction of HL-60 cell-cell adhesion is proposed to result from increased amounts of extracellular fibronectin binding to VES-induced cell surface fibronectin-binding molecules.
