title: Insulin-like growth factor I increases alpha Vbeta 3 affinity by increasing the amount of integrin-associated protein that is associated with non-raft domains of the cellular membrane.
abstract: Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) stimulates an increase in alpha(V)beta(3) ligand binding. Stimulation of smooth muscle cells by IGF-I requires alpha(V)beta(3) ligand occupancy, and enhanced alpha(V)beta(3) ligand occupancy augments IGF-I actions. Therefore, IGF-I-induced changes in alpha(V)beta(3) ligand binding may act to further enhance IGF-I actions. Integrin-associated protein (IAP) has been shown to be associated with alpha(V)beta(3) and is required for the binding of alpha(V)beta(3) to vitronectin-coated beads. We therefore investigated whether IGF-I could stimulate IAP-alpha(V)beta(3) association resulting in enhanced ligand binding. IGF-I stimulated an increase in IAP-alpha(V)beta(3) association. This was due, at least in part, to an IGF-I-stimulated redistribution of IAP from the Triton-insoluble fraction of the cell to the Triton-soluble fraction of the cell, where most of the alpha(V)beta(3) was located. Inhibition of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway blocked both the redistribution of IAP and the increase in IAP-alpha(V)beta(3) association, providing further evidence that the redistribution of IAP is essential for the increase in association. An anti-IAP monoclonal antibody, blocked both the IGF-I-stimulated increase in IAP-alpha(V)beta(3) complex formation and cell migration. IGF-I-stimulated translocation of IAP and increase in IAP-alpha(V)beta(3) association represent an important process by which IGF-I modulates alpha(V)beta(3) ligand binding and cellular responses.
