Type VIII collagen, a short chain collagen, is scarcely present in normal arteries, but is dramatically upregulated in atherosclerosis and after other types of vascular injury. Cell culture studies have revealed that this protein supports smooth muscle cell (SMC) adhesion and stimulates migration, however little is known about the signaling or the mechanisms by which this occurs. SMCs isolated from wild-type C57BL/6 and type VIII collagen deficient mice were studied using assays to measure chemotactic and haptotactic migration, and remodeling and contraction of 3-dimensional type I collagen gels. Col8(-/-) SMCs exhibited impairments in migration, and a strongly adhesive phenotype with prominent stress fibers, stable microtubules and pronounced central basal focal adhesions. The addition of exogenous type VIII collagen to the Col8(-/-) SMCs rescued the impairments in migration, and restored cytoskeletal architecture so that it was similar to Col8(+/+) cells. We measured elevated levels of active GTP-RhoA in the Col8(-/-) cells, and this too was reversed by treatment with exogenous type VIII collagen. We showed that type VIII collagen normally suppresses RhoA activation through a beta-1 integrin dependent mechanism. MMP-2 levels were reduced in the Col8(-/-) SMCs, and knockdown of MMP-2 in Col8(+/+) SMCs partially recapitulated the decreases in migration and 3D gel contraction seen in Col8(-/-) cells, showing that type VIII collagen-stimulated migration was dependent on MMP-2. Inhibition of Rho restored MMP-2 activity in the Col8(-/-) cells, and partially rescued migration, demonstrating that the elevations in RhoA activity were responsible for the suppression of migration of these cells. In conclusion, we have shown that type VIII collagen signals through beta-1 integrin receptors to suppress RhoA, allowing optimal configuration of the cytoskeleton, and the stimulation of MMP-2-dependent cell migration."xsd:string |
