Abstract:
:Airway smooth muscle (ASM) accumulation and enrichment of the extracellular matrix (ECM) with type I collagen and fibronectin are major pathologic features of airway remodeling in asthma. These ECM components confer enhanced ASM proliferation in vitro, but a requirement for specific integrin ECM receptors has not been examined. Here, we examined the mitogen platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB on beta1-integrin expression on human ASM cells cultured on these ECM substrates and defined the involvement of specific integrins in cell attachment and proliferation using integrin-neutralizing antibodies. PDGF-BB-dependent proliferation was enhanced two- to threefold by monomeric type I collagen or fibronectin and to a lesser extent by vitronectin; other interstitial ECM components (fibrillar type I and III collagen and tenascin-C) had no effect. Except for increased alpha3 expression induced by PDGF-BB and monomeric type I collagen or fibronectin, alpha1, alpha2, alpha4, alpha5, alphav, and alphavbeta3 integrins were unchanged compared with unstimulated cells on plastic. Blocking antibodies revealed alpha2beta1- and alphavbeta3-mediated attachment to monomeric type I collagen, whereas attachment to fibronectin required alpha5beta1. In contrast, enhancement of PDGF-BB-dependent proliferation by either monomeric type I collagen or fibronectin required alpha2beta1, alpha4beta1, and alpha5beta1 integrins. These data suggest multiple beta1-integrins regulate enhanced ASM proliferative responses.
