We characterized beta 1 integrin subunit expression on three different cultures of benign human nevomelanocytes (NMC) and on four different cell cultures of human dysplastic nevus (DN) cells by flow cytometry analysis and examined their role in mediating cell spreading and migration on collagen type IV (CN IV) and laminin (LN) coated substrates by using a quantitative video image analysis system. The seven human NMC and DNC cultures expressed heterogeneous levels of beta 1, alpha 2, alpha 3 and alpha 6 integrin subunits. Image analysis showed that a significant increase (P < 0.001) in cell spreading and migration of the DN cells was induced on increasing coating concentrations of CN IV and LN. However, the NMC did not show an increase in cell spreading or migration on these substrates when compared to the substrates coated with denatured BSA only. The CN IV-induced cell spreading of the DN cells was significantly inhibited by anti-beta 1 mAb (AIIB2), anti-alpha 2 mAb (P1E6), or anti-alpha 3 mAb (P1B5), but not by mAb against alpha 6 integrin subunit (GoH3). The DN cell spreading on LN was not significantly inhibited by these mAbs. In contrast, the migration of the DN on CN IV and LN was significantly inhibited by anti-beta 1 mAb, anti-alpha 2 mAb, anti-alpha 3 mAb and anti-alpha 6 mAb. These data suggest that the alpha 2 and alpha 3 subunit are important for cell spreading of the DN on CN IV, although they are less important in cell spreading on the extracellular matrix component LN.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007797 Laminin Large, noncollagenous glycoprotein with antigenic properties. It is localized in the basement membrane lamina lucida and functions to bind epithelial cells to the basement membrane. Evidence suggests that the protein plays a role in tumor invasion. Merosin,Glycoprotein GP-2,Laminin M,Laminin M Chain,Chain, Laminin M,Glycoprotein GP 2,M Chain, Laminin
D008544 Melanocytes Mammalian pigment cells that produce MELANINS, pigments found mainly in the EPIDERMIS, but also in the eyes and the hair, by a process called melanogenesis. Coloration can be altered by the number of melanocytes or the amount of pigment produced and stored in the organelles called MELANOSOMES. The large non-mammalian melanin-containing cells are called MELANOPHORES. Melanocyte

D003470 Culture Media Any liquid or solid preparation made specifically for the growth, storage, or transport of microorganisms or other types of cells. The variety of media that exist allow for the culturing of specific microorganisms and cell types, such as differential media, selective media, test media, and defined media. Solid media consist of liquid media that have been solidified with an agent such as AGAR or GELATIN. Media, Culture
D004416 Dysplastic Nevus Syndrome Clinically atypical nevi (usually exceeding 5 mm in diameter and having variable pigmentation and ill defined borders) with an increased risk for development of non-familial cutaneous malignant melanoma. Biopsies show melanocytic dysplasia. Nevi are clinically and histologically identical to the precursor lesions for melanoma in the B-K mole syndrome.
