Abstract

|
BAY11-7082 was initially found to be an anti-inflammatory drug with NF-??B inhibitory property. In this study, we evaluated modulatory function of BAY11-7082 on U937 cell-cell adhesion induced by CD29 (1-integrins). BAY11-7082 strongly blocked functional activation of CD29 (1-integrins), as assessed by cell-cell adhesion assay. However, this compound
did not block a simple activation of CD29, as assessed by cell-fibronectin adhesion assay. In particular, to understand
molecular mechanism of BAY11-7082-mediated inhibition, the regulatory roles of CD29-induced actin cytoskeleton rearrangement under cell-cell adhesion and surface level of CD29 were examined using confocal and flow cytometic analysis. Interestingly, this compound strongly suppressed the molecular association of actin cytoskeleton with CD29 at cell-cell adhesion site. Moreover, BAY11-7082 also diminished surface levels of CD29 as well as its-associated adhesion molecule CD147, but not other adhesion molecules such as CD18 and CD43. Therefore, our data suggest that BAY11-7082 may be involved in regulating immune responses managed by CD29-mediated cell-cell adhesion.
