The alpha 4 beta 1 integrin has been suggested to play important roles in embryogenesis and pathogenesis of many diseases which involve both cell adhesion and cell migration. Previous studies using anti-alpha 4 beta 1 antibodies and fibronectin (Fn) fragments have suggested that alpha 4 beta 1 integrins may be involved in cell motility on Fn and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). However, the cells used in these studies also express other Fn integrin receptors including alpha 5 beta 1 integrin, which is known to function in cell motility on Fn. To test whether alpha 4 beta 1 integrins mediate cell motility on Fn and VCAM-1 in the absence of alpha 5 beta 1 integrin, we expressed human alpha 4 integrin in a Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line that is deficient in alpha 5 beta 1 integrin (CHO B2). The parental alpha 5 deficient CHO B2 cells were unable to adhere, spread or migrate on Fn, nor could they assemble a fibrillar Fn matrix. Expression of alpha 4 beta 1 integrin in the CHO B2 cells enabled the cells to adhere, spread and migrate on Fn and on VCAM-1 but not to assemble a fibrillar Fn matrix. The cellular processes mediated by the interaction of alpha 4 beta 1 with Fn or VCAM-1 were inhibited by the CS1 peptide derived from the major alpha 4 beta 1 binding site on Fn. These findings demonstrate that alpha 4 beta 1 integrins not only function as cell adhesion receptors but also as cell motility receptors for Fn and VCAM-1 independent of alpha 5 beta 1. Moreover, they reveal important functional differences between Fn binding integrins. The alpha 4-positive, alpha 5-negative CHO cells described in this report will be useful tools in studying the mechanism of molecular signalling during integrin mediated cellular processes.
