Objectives:We previously showed that divalent cations regulate α 2 β 1 integrin-mediated pancreatic cancer cell interactions with type I collagen in 2 dimensions (2D), including cell adhesion, migration, and proliferation. Presently, we examined divalent cation-dependent α 2 β 1 integrin-mediated pancreatic cancer cell adhesion and proliferation on type I collagen in a novel 3D in vitro model.Methods:Cell attachment, proliferation, and antibody inhibition assays on type I collagen in both 2D and 3D, and microscopy and immunoblotting were used for these studies.Results:As in 2D, cell attachment on type I collagen in 3D is Mg 2+-dependent and inhibited by Ca 2+. Proliferation in 3D is also Mg 2+-dependent, but maximal when Mg 2+ is present at concentrations that promote maximal cell adhesion and Ca 2+ is present at concentrations less than Mg 2+. Immunoblotting studies demonstrate that the divalent cation-dependent changes in cell-cell adhesion observed on type I collagen in both 2D and 3D are associated with the changes in E-cadherin and β-catenin expression. Antibody inhibition assays indicate further that the α 2 β 1 integrin specifically mediates proliferation on type I collagen in 3D under altered divalent cation conditions.Conclusions:Divalent cation shifts could activate α 2 β 1 integrin-mediated malignancy in the type I collagen-rich 3D tumor microenvironment of pancreatic cancer.
