Impairment of integrin-mediated cell-matrix adhesion in oxidant-stressed PC12 cells.
Oxidants are believed to play an important and complex role in neuronal injury and death in the aging process and various neurode generative diseases. We studied the effect of oxidative stress on integrin-mediated cell-extracellular matrix (ECM) interactions using the PC12 neuronal cell line. In assays in which attachment was measured between 30 and 90 min, addition of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to the attachment medium resulted in a dose-dependent inhibition of initial cell attachment to collagen. Addition of H2O2 also caused previously attached cells to detach from collagen. The inhibition by H2O2 was specific for integrin-mediated adhesion, since attachment to substrata coated with non-ECM molecules was much less affected. Exposure of cells to H2O2 resulted in a rapid and profound reduction of intracellular ATP, accompanied by only a slight increase in intracellular free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). Treatment of cells with the microfilament-disrupting agent, cytochalasin B, like that with H2O2, inhibited cell adhesion to collagen. We propose that integrin-mediated cell adhesion, which requires interactions between cytoplasmic portions of integrin subunits and cytoskeletal microfilaments, is impaired by oxidative stress as a result of the depletion of intracellular ATP and that such depletion is an early event in the process of oxidant-induced neuronal injury.
