Fibrinogen (Fbg) mediates platelet aggregation through its binding to the αIIbβ3 integrin receptor. Despite the many studies of platelet aggregation and blood clotting, the interaction of Fbg with the platelet integrin has remained unresolved. This paper reports on the use of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of alkanethiolates on gold to study the adhesion of αIIbβ3 CHO K1 cells to the GRGDS and HHLGGAKQAGDV motifs within Fbg. The peptides were immobilized to a monolayer that otherwise prevented nonspecific interactions of the cells with the substrate. Monolayers presenting GRGDSC or HHLGGAKQAGDVC were effective at mediating αIIbβ3 CHO K1 cell adhesion and spreading and were comparable to the use of Fbg-coated substrates, suggesting that both sequences can bind the receptor independently. A comparison of cell adhesion to several peptide truncations revealed that AGD was the minimal binding sequence in HHLGGAKQAGDV, and inhibition experiments showed that AGD and RGD were competitive ligands for the receptor. A peptide array of GXGDSC peptides revealed that αIIbβ3 CHO K1 cells adhered to peptides containing basic or hydrophobic residues in the X position, revealing the relaxed specificity with which αIIbβ3 recognizes its ligands. This work therefore suggests that AGD and RGD interact with Fbg in a functionally similar manner and that the use of AGD peptides may lead to a new generation of anti-thrombotic agents.
