Summary:The adherent chicken cell line, MDCC-MSB1-41C, was highly transplantable and metastatic in vivo, compared with the parental non-adherent cell line MDCC-MSB1 from Marek's disease (MD) lymphoblastoid tumor. For clarification of differences in extracellular matrix proteins in MSB1-41C and MSB1 cells, examination was made of various components of extracellular matrix proteins. A detachment experiment indicated the protein(s) recognizing the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence, the minimum structure required for recognition by the cell-surface receptors, is essential for the adherent character. Immunoblot assay using antibodies showed increased expression of fibronectin, fibronectin receptors, and vinculin on MSB1-41C cell lines. RGD-directed integrins mediate important cell-cell adhesive interaction and these interactions with extracellular matrix proteins may thus possibly be requisite for migration, proliferation and metastatic dissemination of MDCC-MSB1-41C cells. The RGD-containing peptide in the culture medium could cause detachment of cultured adhesive lymphoid leukosis LSCC-1104X5 cells from the dish too.
