Abstract:

ABSTRACT Nidogen 1 is a highly conserved protein in mammals,Drosophila melanogaster, Caenorhabditis elegans, and ascidians and is found in all basement membranes. It has been proposed that nidogen 1 connects the laminin and collagen IV networks, so stabilizing the basement membrane, and integrates other proteins, including perlecan, into the basement membrane. To define the role of nidogen 1 in basement membranes in vivo, we produced a null mutation of the NID-1 gene in embryonic stem cells and used these to derive mouse lines. Homozygous animals produce neither nidogen 1 mRNA nor protein. Surprisingly, they show no overt abnormalities and are fertile, their basement membrane structures appearing normal. Nidogen 2 staining is increased in certain basement membranes, where it is normally only found in scant amounts. This occurs by either redistribution from other extracellular matrices or unmasking of nidogen 2 epitopes, as its production does not appear to be upregulated. The results show that nidogen 1 is not required for basement membrane formation or maintenance.

Abstract:

Though critical to normal development and cancer metastasis, how cells traverse basement membranes is poorly understood. A central impediment has been the challenge of visualizing invasive cell interactions with basement membrane in vivo. By developing live-cell imaging methods to follow anchor cell (AC) invasion in Caenorhabditis elegans, we identify F-actin–based invadopodia that breach basement membrane. When an invadopodium penetrates basement membrane, it rapidly transitions into a stable invasive process that expands the breach and crosses into the vulval tissue. We find that the netrin receptor UNC-40 (DCC) specifically enriches at the site of basement membrane breach and that activation by UNC-6 (netrin) directs focused F-actin formation, generating the invasive protrusion and the cessation of invadopodia. Using optical highlighting of basement membrane components, we further demonstrate that rather than relying solely on proteolytic dissolution, the AC’s protrusion physically displaces basement membrane. These studies reveal an UNC-40–mediated morphogenetic transition at the cell–basement membrane interface that directs invading cells across basement membrane barriers.

Abstract:

Cancer invasion through basement membranes represents the initial step of tumor dissemination and metastasis. However, little is known about how human cancer cells breach basement membranes. Here, we used a three-dimensional in vitro invasion model consisting of cancer spheroids encapsulated by a basement membrane and embedded in 3D collagen gels to visualize the early events of cancer invasion by confocal microscopy and live-cell imaging. Human breast cancer cells generated large numbers of basement membrane perforations, or holes, of varying sizes that expanded over time during cell invasion. We used a wide variety of small molecule inhibitors to probe the mechanisms of basement membrane perforation and hole expansion. Protease inhibitor treatment (BB94), led to a 63% decrease in perforation size. After myosin II inhibition (blebbistatin), the basement membrane perforation area decreased by only 15%. These treatments produced correspondingly decreased cellular breaching events. Interestingly, inhibition of actin polymerization dramatically decreased basement membrane perforation by 80% and blocked invasion. Our findings suggest that human cancer cells can primarily use proteolysis and actin polymerization to perforate the BM and to expand perforations for basement membrane breaching with a relatively small contribution from myosin II contractility.

Abstract:

The growth of an organism involves the proliferation and migration of cells within an extracellular matrix. As a cell surface receptor, the Dag1 gene product dystroglycan links the intracellular cytoskeleton to the extracellular basement membrane in many cells. Thought to act as a structural protein dystroglycan may also participate in signal transduction. This study aims to better understand the role of dystroglycan during kidney morphogenesis. I hypothesised that a lack of dystroglycan in the precursor cells of the kidney could lead to altered kidney growth. Chimaeric mice deficient in dystroglycan were generated to test this hypothesis. A total of 38 chimaeras had genetic contribution and histological analysis performed on their kidneys. Of the chimaeras analysed, only four demonstrated altered kidney morphology. Further histological, immunohistochemical and biochemical studies established whether a link existed between this morphology and a deficiency in dystroglycan. Normal laminar architecture and nephrotic structures of the kidneys suggest that normal kidney organogenesis occurred in the absence of dystroglycan. The pattern and expression level of basement membrane components suggests that normal basement membrane formation also occured in the absence of dystroglycan. Biochemical analysis revealed that although dystroglycan protein levels correlate with the genetic contribution of the chimaeric kidney, it does not correlate with the altered morphology. Ureter blockage causing hydronephrosis can explain the morphology observed. A deficiency of dystroglycan in the ureter may in turn have caused this blockage. These findings suggest that dystroglycan is not necessary for kidney organogenesis, since kidney development occurred normally in all 38 chimaeric animals irrespective of genetic contribution.

Abstract:

Antisera to the basement membrane proteins laminin, fibronectin and type IV collagen were prepared, characterized and rendered monospecific by appropriate treatments. Methods were developed to allow the use of these antisera for inmunohistochemical staining of sections of tissue which had been preserved by several methods. In particular, the use of protease digestion {"unmasking") to allow staining of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded material was studied. The presence and intensity of staining was found to be highly dependent on the protease and the conditions of digestion, the type of basement membrane, and whether the tissue was normal or neoplastic. The distributions of the three proteins were studied in normal colorectal mucosa and in colorectal adenocarcinoma. A detailed retrospective study was made of the distribution of laminin in 158 cases of rectal carcinoma. Tumours fell into two groups: those which showed linear basement membrane-like laminin staining (laminin positive) and those which did not (laminin negative). Patients with laminin positive tumours had a reduced incidence of distant metastasis and an increased 5 yr survival rate; these correlations were statistically highly significant. Carparison by multivariate analysis with other widely used prognostic markers indicated that laminin status has considerable potential for use as a prognostic marker in the management of such patients. The antisera were also used in a study of the cellular origin and biosynthesis of basement membrane proteins in three systems. In a basement membrane-producing murine tumour, intracellular staining was seen, but it was found that different methods of tissue preparation and unmasking drastically affected the apparent distributions of the three antigens. In the developing rat intestine, no evidence was seen of basement membrane synthesis by the intestinal epithelial cells. However in isolated rat intestinal epithelial cells, some evidence was found for synthesis of laminin and fibronectin, but not type IV collagen.

Abstract:

Basement membranes are ubiquitous. In humans, genetic disorders in basement membranes can lead to many complications including kidney disease, skeletal muscle myopathy, hearing loss, and ocular abnormalities[1]. We hypothesize that genetic mutation of the microstructure of the lens capsule basement membrane will alter its mechanical properties. Because of its unique thickness and anatomically distinct margins, the lens capsule is the only site in the body where large-scale mechanical tests on the basement membrane can be made.

Basement membranes are planar extracellular matrices ubiquitous within tissues and serve roles in the organization, support and regulation of resident cell populations. The ocular lens capsule is experimentally accessible accounting for its wide use as a model in studies of basement membrane mechanics [1–3]. Optical tracking of passive osmotic swelling, unlike previously employed methods of determining the elasticity of the lens capsule, involves minimal manipulation of the lens, which is desirable when using smaller animal models, such as the mouse.

Full text

Abstract:

The basement membrane is a specialized part of the extra-cellular matrix. It is usually characterized as a scaffold for epithelial cells but in some tissues it serves other, mechanical, roles [1]. The mechanical properties of the basement membrane are mainly determined by one of its main constituents — type IV collagen. Unlike the well-known fibrous type I collagen, collagen IV assembles into planar networks (Fig. 1) [2]. The α 1(IV) and α 2(IV) collagen IV chains assemble into the so-called major chain network, present in all basement membranes. The α 3(IV), α 4(IV), α 5(IV) collagen IV chains form the minor chain network which is found only in the adult basement membranes of the kidney glomerular capillaries (GBM), ocular lens (LBM), cochlea, and the testes [3]. The minor chains have a higher number of cysteine residues, allowing them to form a higher number of lateral interactions. In the minor chain network, the greater potential to interact laterally manifests in the formation of super-coils, which are rarely observed in the major chain network [4]. Increasing the number of cross-links in a polymeric material is known to increase material stiffness; therefore, it is believed that the minor chain network confers basement membranes with additional strength and stability [5]. In the hereditary disease Alport syndrome, a mutation causes the absence of the minor chain network. The GBM and LBM of Alport patients appear weakened and unable to meet their mechanical demands, further supporting this theory [6]. The objective of this study was to evaluate the importance of cross-linking in the minor chains for the mechanical properties of type IV collagen networks, specifically in the GBM and LBM where the absence of the minor chains has an observed mechanical effect.
