Initiation of fibronectin fibrillogenesis is an enzyme-dependent process

ABSTRACT: Fibronectin fibrillogenesis and mechanosensing both depend on integrin-mediated force transmission to the extracellular-matrix. However, force transmission is in itself dependent on fibrillogenesis, and fibronectin fibrils are found in soft embryos where high forces cannot be applied, suggesting that force cannot be the sole initiator of fibrillogenesis. Here we identify a novel nucleation step prior to force transmission, driven by fibronectin oxidation mediated by lysyl-oxidase enzyme family members. This oxidation induces fibronectin clustering that promotes early adhesion, alters cellular response to soft matrices, and enhances force transmission to the matrix. In contrast, absence of fibronectin oxidation abrogates fibrillogenesis, perturbs cell-matrix adhesion, and compromises mechanosensation. Moreover, fibronectin oxidation promotes cancer cells colony formation in soft agar as well as collective and single-cell migration. These results reveal a yet unidentified, force-independent enzyme-dependent mechanism that initiates fibronectin fibrillogenesis, establishing a critical step in cell adhesion and mechanosensing.

Sox2-dependent fibronectin fibrillogenesis controls directional collective migration of Schwann cells

Project description:The extracellular matrix is essential for tissue formation and regeneration through the control of cellular behavior. Deregulation of extracellular matrix components is associated to disease, including neurodegeneration. After peripheral nerve injury, Schwann cells guide regrowing axons to their targets. These glial cells migrate collectively and provide an extracellular environment to enable neural repair. How this occurs remains poorly understood. Here, we show that Sox2 controls fibronectin fibrillogenesis in Schwann cells to provide a highly oriented extracellular matrix, which supports their rapid collective migration with a continuous cellular flow. Sox2 directly activates fibronectin expression in Schwann cells, leading to an increase in fibrillogenesis and cellular huddling. Accordingly, loss of fibrillogenesis leads to glial disassembly and disorganized axon regrowth. In vivo, 7 days post nerve injury, we found that pro-regenerative Schwann cells co-express Sox2 and the EIIIA-containing fibronectin splicing isoform. This mechanism is conserved in mammals, including humans, but absent in zebrafish. Taken together, our results demonstrate that Sox2 directly controls fibrillogenesis and provide a novel mechanism for the modification of the environmental architecture by glial cells during neuronal repair.

Mesenchymal stem cell integrin-associated complexes

Project description:The composition and stiffness of the extracellular matrix (ECM) environment that surrounds Multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) stem cells dictates transcriptional programming, thereby affecting stem cell lineage decision-making. Cells sense force between themselves and their microenvironment controlling the capability of MSCs to differentiate into adipocytes, osteocytes and chondrocytes. Force sensing is transmitted by integrin receptors and their associated adhesion signalling complexes. To identify regulators of MSC force sensing we sought to catalogue MSC adhesion complex composition. Therefore we isolated integrin-associated adhesion complexes formed in MSCs plated on the ECM ligand fibronectin. We identifed proteins using mass spectrometry that define a MSC specific subset of adhesion complex proteins consisting of key linkages to the actin cytoskeleton together with integrin signalling and force sensing components.

YAP regulates cell mechanics by controlling focal adhesion assembly

Project description:Hippo effectors YAP/TAZ act as on-off mechanosensing switches by sensing modifications in extracellular matrix (ECM) composition and mechanics. The regulation of their activity has been described so far through a hierarchical model in which elements of Hippo pathway are under the control of Focal Adhesions (FAs). Here we unveiled the molecular mechanism by which cell spreading and RhoA GTPase control FA formation through YAP to stabilize the anchorage of actin cytoskeleton to cell membrane. This mechanism required YAP co-transcriptional function and involved the activation of genes encoding for integrins and FA docking proteins. Tuning YAP transcriptional activity led to the modification of cell mechanics, force development, adhesion strength, determined cell shaping, migration and differentiation. These results provide new insights into the mechanism of YAP mechanosensing activity and qualify Hippo effector as the key determinant of cell mechanics in response to ECM cues.

Tensin3 interaction with talin drives formation of fibronectin-associated fibrillar adhesions

Project description:The formation of healthy tissue involves continuous remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Whilst it is known that this requires integrin-associated cell-ECM adhesion sites (CMAs) and actomyosin-mediated forces, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here we examine how tensin3 contributes to formation of fibrillar adhesions (FBs) and fibronectin fibrillogenesis. Using BioID mass spectrometry and a mitochondrial targeting assay, we establish that tensin3 associates with the mechanosensors talin and vinculin. We show that the talin R11 rod domain binds directly to a helical motif within the central intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of tensin3, whilst vinculin binds indirectly to tensin3 via talin. Using CRISPR knock-out cells in combination with defined tensin3 mutations, we show (i) that tensin3 is critical for formation of alpha5 beta1-integrin FBs and for fibronectin fibrillogenesis, and (ii) the talin/tensin3 interaction drives this process, with vinculin acting to potentiate it.

Potential interactors of alpha-tubulin acetyltransferase 1 (αTAT1/MEC17)

Project description:Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix occurs through integrin-mediated focal adhesions, which sense the mechanical properties of the substrate and impact cellular functions such as cell migration. Mechanotransduction at focal adhesions affects the actomyosin network and contributes to cell migration. Despite being key players in cell adhesion and migration, the role of microtubules in mechanotransduction has been overlooked. Here, we show that substrate rigidity increases microtubule acetylation through β1 integrin signalling in primary rat astrocytes. Moreover, αTAT1, the enzyme responsible for microtubule acetylation, interacts with a major mechanosensing focal adhesion protein, Talin, and is able to tune the distribution of focal adhesions depending on the matrix rigidity. αTAT1 also reorganises the actomyosin network, increases traction force generation and cell migration speed on stiff substrates. Mechanistically, acetylation of microtubules promotes the release of microtubule-associated RhoGEF, GEF-H1 into the cytoplasm, which then leads to RhoA activation and high actomyosin contractility. Thus, we propose a novel feedback loop involving a crosstalk between microtubules and actin in mechanotransduction at focal adhesions whereby, cells sense the rigidity of the substrate through integrin-mediated adhesions, modulate their levels of microtubule acetylation, which then controls the actomyosin cytoskeleton and force transmission on the substrate to promote mechanosensitive cell migration.

Human endothelial cell microRNA expression in high and low stiffness [RNA-seq]

Project description:Purpose: Mechanical homeostasis is a crucial process for endothelial cell (EC) survival and functionality. Cells can sense environmental change and modify the expression of extracellular matrix, focal adhesion and cytoskeleton protein to maintain the correct mechanical homeostasis. In this study, we observed change in mRNA levels linked with mechanical response. ECs were seeded for 48 hour on PDMS 3 kPa and 30 kPa substrate coating with fibronectin to simulate "soft" and "stiff" substrate, then RNA-seq was performed.
