Dermatopontin, an extracellular matrix component Initially purified from bovine dermis, promoted cell adhesion Of the human epidermal keratinocyte cell line (HaCaT cells). HaCaT cells spread on dermatopontin and formed actin fibers. Adhesion of HaCaT cells to dermatopontin was inhibited by both EDTA and heparin and was mediated in part by alpha 3 beta 1 Integrin. A synthetic peptide (DP-4, PHGQVVVAVRS; bovine dermatopontin residues 33-43) specifically inhibited adhesion of cells to dermatopontin, and when the DP-4 peptide was coated on the well, it promoted cell adhesion in a dose-dependent manner. An active core Sequence of the DP-4 peptide was localized to an eight-amino acid sequence (GQVVVAVR). These results indicate that dermatopontin is a novel epidermal cell adhesion molecule and suggest that the DP-4 sequence is critical for the cell adhesive activity of dermatopontin. Adhesion of cells to DP-4 was strongly inhibited by heparin. When HaCaT cells were treated with heparitinase 1, the cells failed to adhere to DP-4 but chondroitinase ABC treatment did not Influence the adhesion activity. DP-4 specifically interacted with biotinylated heparin, and this interaction was inhibited by unlabeled heparin. DP-4 peptide significantly promoted the adhesion of cells overexpressing syndecans, and syndecan bound to a DP-4 peptide affinity column. These results suggest that HaCaT cells adhere to dermatopontin through alpha 3 beta 1 integrin and a heparan sulfate proteoglycan-type receptor, which is likely a syndecan. We conclude that dermatopontin plays a role as a multifunctional adhesion molecule for epidermal cells.
