Evaluation of Keratinocyte Proliferation on Two- and Three-dimensional Type I Collagen Substrates

Type I collagen, useful as a substrate for cell culture, exists in two forms: the two-dimensional, non-fibrous form and three-dimensional, fibril form. ...

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a major biomechanical environment for all cells in vivo, and tightly controls wound healing and cancer progression. Type I collagen (Col I) is the most abundant component in ECM and plays an essential role for cell motility control and migration beyond structural support. Our previous results showed that Col I increased the length of primary cilia and the expression of primary cilia-associated proteins in 3T3-L1 cells. The Hippo/YAP pathway serves as a major integrator of cell surface-mediated signals and regulates key processes for the development and maintenance of tissue functions. In this study, we investigated the role of Hippo/YAP signaling in primary cilia growth of cells cultured on Col I-coated plate, as well as the potential link between primary cilia and migration. At 2-day post-confluence, YAP localization in the nucleus was dramatically increased when the cells were cultured on Col I-coated plate, accompanied by cilia growth. YAP inhibitor verteporfin repressed the growth of primary cilia as well as the expressions of ciliogenesis-associated proteins in confluent 3T3-L1 cells cultured on Col I-coated plate. Moreover, knockdown of either YAP or IFT88, one of the ciliogenesis-associated proteins, reversed the migration of confluent 3T3-L1 cells promoted by Col I-coating. In conclusion, activation of YAP pathway by Col I-coating of culture plate for confluent 3T3-L1 cells is positively associated with the primary cilia growth, which eventually results in promoted migration.

Type I collagen-induced YAP nuclear expression promotes primary cilia growth and contributes to cell migration in confluent mouse embryo fibroblast 3T3-L1 cells.

Preadipocyte migration is a fundamental and important process for the development of tissue organization, especially in the development of primitive adipose tissue and adipocyte tissue wound healing. However, excessive migration may result in abnormal development and fibrosis-related diseases such as hypertrophic scar. We previously reported that type I collagen (collagen I) enhanced migration of 3T3-L1 preadipocytes via phosphorylation and/or acetylation of NF-κB p65, and the enhanced cell migration is repressed by silibinin treatment through sirt1. It is known that sirt1 has an ability to deacetylate acetylated NF-κB p65, but little is known about the effect of sirt1 on phosphorylated NF-κB p65. This study aims to examine the potential effect of sirt1 on the regulation of phosphorylated NF-κB p65 and the underlying mechanism. Autophagy is involved in many physiological and pathological processes, including regulation of cell migration as well as in cellular homeostasis. The present study demonstrates that silibinin induces autophagy in a dose-dependent manner in 3T3-L1 cells. Autophagy is under the regulation of sirt1/AMPK pathway, and inhibits collagen I-enhanced migration of 3T3-L1 cells through negative regulation of NF-κB p65 phosphorylation but not acetylation. The expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is up-regulated with silibinin accompanying up-regulation of autophagy through activating sirt1 in 3T3-L1 cells. Taken together, these findings indicate that silibinin-induced autophagy is mediated by up-regulation of PPARα-sirt1-AMPK, contributing to repression of type I collagen-enhanced migration in murine 3T3-L1 preadipocytes through down-regulation of phosphorylated NF-κB p65.

Silibinin-induced autophagy mediated by PPARα-sirt1-AMPK pathway participated in the regulation of type I collagen-enhanced migration in murine 3T3-L1 preadipocytes.

Keratinocyte line cells HaCaT and FEPE1L-8 are used for skin model with type I collagen fibrils (gels). For this purpose, not only differentiation but also regulation of proliferation on type I collagen gels by exogenous calcium concentration is important. When exogenous calcium concentration is low, primary keratinocyte proliferation is repressed and eventually cells are induced to apoptosis on type I collagen gels. The apoptosis induced on type I collagen gels is suppressed by increasing calcium concentration in the medium. That is, higher exogenous calcium concentration is necessary for primary keratinocyte survival on type I collagen gels than for that on dish surface culture. Meanwhile much higher exogenous calcium causes cell differentiation and inhibition of proliferation. The optimal calcium concentrations for proliferation on type I collagen gels have not been clarified in keratinocyte line cells. HaCaT cells have a unique calcium sensitivity in comparison with primary keratinocytes, whereas FEPE1L-8 cells have a similar sensitivity to primary keratinocytes. In this study, we compared the effect of calcium concentrations on proliferation of HaCaT and FEPE1L-8 cells on type I collagen gels. On type I collagen gels, both line cells required higher calcium concentrations for proliferation than on dish surface. HaCaT cells proliferated better in a wider range of calcium concentrations than FEPE1L-8 cells.
