Novel RGD-like molecules based on the tyrosine template: design, synthesis, and biological evaluation on isolated integrins aVb3/aIIbb3 and in cellular adhesion tests

چکیده
RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) peptidomimetics have been designed for covalent anchorage on biomaterials. The tyrosine template was thus equipped with (i) a basic side chain of various flexibility, (ii) an acidic side chain, which incorporated the XPS fluorine tag, and (iii) a spacer-arm terminated by a primary amine for surface grafting. The most active compounds showed IC50 values in the nanomolar range versus isolated human integrins aVb3 and aIIbb3. Preincubation of CaCo2 cells with soluble peptidomimetics (2 and 19a) prevented cellular adhesion on culture plates coated with vitronectin. On the other hand, peptidomimetics (19a and 19b) immobilized on a poly(ethylene)terephthalate membrane (PET) promoted CaCo2 cells adhesion. A modeling study at the ab initio level in MINI-1 0 basis allowed to compare the various synthetic ligands of integrins and to propose novel pharmacophore structures. 2004 Elsevier Ltd.

Serum amyloid A (SAA) is an acute phase reactant, and its level in the blood is elevated to 1000-fold in response of the body to trauma, infection, inflammation, and neoplasia. SAA was reported to inhibit platelet aggregation and to induce adhesion of leukocytes. This study looked at adhesion of human platelets to SAA. Immobilized SAA supported the adhesion of human washed platelets; level of a...
متن کاملEffects of Thrombin on Interactions Between b3-Integrins and Extracellular Matrix in Platelets and Vascular Cells
The b3-integrin family consists of aIIbb3 (also known as glycoprotein IIb/IIIa) and avb3. aIIbb3 is found on platelets and megakaryocytes and has an essential role in hemostasis. avb3 has a broader distribution, and it functions in angiogenesis, neointimal formation after vascular injury, and leukocyte trafficking. There are important interactions between thrombin and b32integrins relative to b...

Borrelia burgdorferi (sensu lato), the agent of Lyme disease, is able to cause chronic, multisystemic infections in human and animal hosts. Attachment of the spirochete to host cells is likely to be important for the colonization of diverse tissues. The platelet-specific integrin aIIbb3 was previously identified as a receptor for all three species of Lyme disease spirochetes (B. burgdorferi sen...
