Cellular Junctions and Adhesion
• In multi-cellular cells have junctions that occur with:
• 1- Other cells• 2- The Extra-Cellular
Matrix (ECM):
• a network of secreted macromolecular complexes

Two main ways in which animal cells are bound together:
•Connective tissue
•Epithelial cells.
Selective Adhesion Determines Specificity of Tissue and Cellular Associations
• Townes & Holtfreter (1950) separated embryonic cells of frogs and combined them together again. To be able to identify the different cell types, they mixed together cells from normal (pigmented) frogs with cells from albino frogs
Identification of CAM through experiment:
Selective Adhesion Determines Specificity of Tissue and Cellular Associations
Antibodies were developed against specific types of CAM.
Antibody treatment of the target cells was found to disturb the cell aggregation.
Identification of CAM through experiment:
• What are the factors that keep the cells together?
• how do the same type of cells recognize each other?
Adhesion
Adhesion = molecules sticking to a substrate
CELL ADESİON MOLECULES
• Cell-cell interactions
• Embryogenesis
• Immunity(migration of immun cells to the inflamation center)
• Cell tissue organ development
• wound healing
• Cancer metastasis
Cell adhesion molecules
• 1-Holding cells together
• 2-Cells detect their extracellular environment through interaction employing a variety of cell adhesion molecules (CAMs)
Cells adhere to each other and to the extracellular matrix through cell-surface proteins called cell
adhesion molecules (CAMs) • Many adhesion molecules are mosaics
of multiple distinct domains• (1) extracellular domain:
– Mediate adhesion
(2) transmembrane domain
• (3) cytosolic domain: • -recruit sets of multifunctional adaptor proteins
• --adaptor proteins: link to cytoskeleton/ signaling molecules
• * outside-in and inside-out effects: connectivity and communication
•
Cell adhesion molecules (CAM)
--Many adhesion molecules are mosaics of multiple distinct domains (1) extracellular domain: mediate adhesion *homotypic adhesion—adhesive interactions between cells of the same
type *homophilic adhesion—a CAM on one cell can directly bind to the same kind of CAM on an adjacent cell.
(2) cytosolic domain: --recruit sets of multifunctional adaptor proteins --adaptor proteins: link to cytoskeleton or signaling molecules
* outside-in and inside-out effects: connectivity and communication
Homophilic Binding- Binding of same kind of molecules in adjacent cells
Heterophilic Binding- Binding to a different kind of molecule on adjacent cells
Linker-dependent Binding-Binding through a secreted linker molecules to other molecules.
1) extracellular domain
The binding of a cell-surface receptor to a secreted ECM molecule immobilized on the substrate.
connects the junction to (micro- or intermediate) filaments

2- linker-protein
Cell-cell adhesions can be
• A- tight and long junctions
• e.g. nerve cells in the nerve cells/ the metabolic cells in the liver
• B- relatively weak and transient
• e.g. immune –system cells in the blood
Cell Adhesion Molecules
What are they?
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMS) are cell surface proteins involved in the binding of cells, usually leukocytes, to each other, to endothelial cells, or to the extracellular matrix.
Most CAMS can be placed into one of four general families of proteins:
1) Cadherins
2) Integrins
3) Immunoglobulin (Ig) super family
4) Selectins

Some CAMs are Ca2+-dependent,
some others are Ca2+-independent. • Ca2+-dependent

• Ca2+-independent
Ig superfamily
1-CADHERINS
• A family of Ca2+-dependent CAMs
• Ca2+ causes dimerization of Cadherins
• The binding is homophilic-hold cells of one tissue type/subtype together by binding to the same cadherin on a neighbouring cell
• greater the number of cadherins, greater the strength of adhesion

the cytoplasmic side:the intracellular attachment proteins: catenins (bind actin) (required for cell-cell adhesion)
Nonclassical cadherines cannot bind actin filaments . They can bind to intermediate filaments and forms desmosomes.

Cadherin structure
Extracellular domains of a classical cadherin (C-cadherin)
If Ca2+ is removed, the extracellular part of the protein becomes floppy and is rapidly degraded by
proteolytic enzymes
Ca2+ causes dimerization of Cadherins
Cadherins -Ca-dependent adhesion molecules
Extracellular domains adhere cells together
Link and help assemble the cytoskeleton viaactin or intermediate filaments
Participate in intracellular signalling
Cadherins Are Linked To Actin Cytoskeleton
• The linkage of cadherins to actin filaments.
Different CAMs function in different junctions
Zonula adherens- E-cadherin
•Cadherins interact with actin filaments by CATENINs.
Cadherin-containing junctions connect cells to one another and are linked to
either the actin or IF cytoskeleton

Embryogenesis & Cadherins
• Expression of specific cadherins accompanies morphogenetic movements during embryogenesis
Embryogenesis & Cadherins
• E-cadherin is the first cadherin expressed during mammalian development. It helps cause compaction, an important morphological change that occurs at the eight-cell stage of mouse embryo development.
• During embryogenesis, production of cadherins promotes cells of similar type to adhere when cells need to migrate to newly growing tissue (e.g. limbs), they lose adhesive properties – cadherins must be endocytosed

Integrin makes cell-substrate interaction
• Ligands: ECM molecules, soluble ligands, CAMs
• ( fibronectin, fibrinogen, ICAM, laminin)
• Two transmembrane glycoprotein subunits: and
• both required for matrix binding
transmembrane linkers of the ECM and the cytoskeleton
bind ligands with low affinity present at very high concentration on the cell surface
Cells both bind to and respond to the ECM via integrins.

Integrins
On the extracellular side integrins bind to the sequence Arg-Gly-Asp found in adhesion molecules including fibronectins
On the intracellular side they bind Vinculin and a-Actinin, these proteins bind to Actin filaments
This dual binding allow cells to move by contracting Actin filaments against the EM
integrin plays a major role in assembly of the hemidesmosome, or stable stable anchoring contact.

Integrins Interact with The Cytoskeleton
Integrins are linkers between cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix.
Bind to actin filaments
Need intracellular anchor proteins for bindig to actins.
These intracellular anchor proteins are:
1. Talin
2. α –actinin
3. Filamin
Integrins Are TM Heterodimers ( Combinations) That Mediate Weak Cell-Matrix and Cell-Cell
Interactions
Cell-matrix adhesion is modulated bychanges in the activity and number ofintegrins
De-adhesion factors promote cellmigration and can remodel the cell surface
interactions and the three binding modes of various integrins
1. Integrins bind to ECM proteins via specific amino acid recognition sites
2. Integrins bind to other cell adhesion molecules
3. Integrins promote platelet aggregation through soluble miltivalent mediator molecules

Integrin and platelet aggregation
(Karp, 2001)
Activation of some integrins may require to bind their ligand
Ex: Platelet aggregation
Leukocyte migration
Fibrinojen Trombin
thrombin activation of platelets causes an induction of platelet agregation mediated by fibrinogen binding to the integrin
Disintegrins
• Disintegrins are peptides isolated from the venom of various snakes of the viper family. They interact with the beta 1 and beta 3 families of integrin proteins.
• They cause the bleeding.
Disintegrin drugs
Drug Function
Bitistatin platelet aggregation inhibitor, which binds with high affinity to the alphaIIbbeta3 integrin
Kistrin Kistrin has an RGD site that competes for the platelet IIb/IIIa integrin
Barbourin that function as potent inhibitors of both platelet aggregation and integrin-dependent cell adhesion
Batroxostatin They were first identified as inhibitors of platelet aggregation and were subsequently shown to bind with high affinity to integrins and to block the interaction of integrins with RGD containing proteins for example they block the binding of the platelet integrin _IIb_3 to fibrinogen
Integrins and Signal Transduction:
• Integrins play an important role not only in structure & architecture of tissues, but also for signal transduction leading to regulation of functions in cell.
3-Immunoglobulin (Ig) Superfamily:
• Contain one or more Ig-like domains that are characteristic of antibody molecules
• a homophilic mechanism (between N-CAM molecules on adjacent cells). Some Ig-like cell-cell adhesion proteins, however, use a heterophilic mechanism
• Function: ICAM and VCAM molecules play an important role in T cell interactions and binding of leukocytes to activated or resting endothelial cells
•Mediate Ca2+-independent Cell-Cell Adhesion
3-Immunoglobulin (Ig) Superfamily : members
• Intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAMs)- on endothelial cells Vasculer adesion molecules: VCAM
• the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM),
• Platelet-endotel..: PECAM
4- Selectins
• Integral proteins• Extracellular domain bind
specific carbohydrates on other cells
• Most commonly found on epithelial cells, used to mediate interactions with leukocytes (white blood cells/immune cells)
P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1
4- Selectins
• 3 types:
- P-selectin- blood platelets,endothelial cells
-L-selectin- white blood cells
-E-selectin- endothelial cells
Selectins are calcium-dependent (C-type) lectins (carbohydrate binding proteins)
• L-selectin -– on lymphocytes (neutrophils)– binds specialized sulfated mucins (‘peripheral node
addressins’ or PNAd) made by high endothelial venules (HEV)
– Can be shed upon lymphocyte activation
• P-selectin - early role in entry to site of inflammation
– in Weibel-Palade bodies in endothelial cells and -granules of platelets
– translocates to membrane in response to thrombin, histamine, C5a, etc
– binds PSGL-1, a tyrosine sulfated mucin - on neutrophils, some effector T cells
• E-selectin - delayed role in entry to site of inflammation
– cytokine inducible on endothelial cells (especially cutaneous)
– binds carbohydrate ligand (sialyl-Lex) on neutrophil glycoproteins /glycolipids and cutaneous leukocyte
antigen (CLA) on effector T cells
L = C-type lectin domainE = EGF-like domainC = complement regulatory domain
Lymphocyte Extravasation
Selectins are involved in extravasation
Inflammatory signals activate endothelial cells making P-Selectin undergo exocytosis
P-Selectin on the surface of endothelial cells binds a specific carbohydrate ligand (Sialyl Lewis -x) on leukocytes
The leukocytes attach to the endothelial wall and roll slowly on it
PAF and integrins are then activated and the leukocytes start to extravasate
Selectins

Diseases of cell adhesion molecules
Integrin diseases-1
• Leukocyte adhesion deficiency
(LAD) type I: – defects in 2 integrin -> defective
neutrophil migration to inflammed skin, peritoneum; lymphocytes less affected due to continued use of
– LAD patients have recurrent bacterial infections
• Other types of LAD involve defects in expression of glycosyltransferases needed to make selectin ligands and defects in intracellular signaling molecules needed for chemokine-mediated integrin activation
• EX: LAD 2 results from a lack of sialyl LewisX (defect of carbohydrate fucosylation). Interaction with endothelial E-and P-selectins is impaired
Integrin diseases-2
• Glanzmann Thrombasthenia

Cancer Metastasis and adhesionAlteration in expression of adhesion moleculescell- cell a recognition- adhesion system breaks down in cancer
6 basic steps for metastasis
For metastasis
1. DetachmentNo need for cell to cell interaction
2. Invasion and intravasation3. Circulation4. Stasis5. Extravasation and invasion6. proliferation
Cancer Metastasis and adhesion
cell- cell a recognition- adhesion system breaks down in cancer
• A loss-of-function allele of a Cadherin, a Desmocollin, or a Ca++-independent CAM can lead a cell to a lose its adhesion to proper neighbors and start to wander(tour)
• About 85% of cancers are epithelial in nature (due to high replication rate), metastasis is linked to a loss of E-cadherins
E (Cadherins is down regulated in most carcinomas and is therefore a tumor suppressor
E (Cadherins:
•.Loss of cadherin is accompanied by a loss of zonula adherens junctions and a dramatic reduction in cell-cell adhesion.
•Experimentally increasing the levels of E-cadherin can restore many of the normal •epithelial properties of carcinoma cells including loss of their ability to cause tumors• when injected into animals.
