Induction of fibroblast apoptosis by CCN1–integrin interaction. (A) Effects of integrin-binding defective CCN1 mutants in apoptosis in Rat1a fibroblasts. Cells adhered to 6-well tissue culture plates were either left untreated or treated with 10 μg/ml of soluble wild-type CCN1; 10 μg/ml of the mutants SM, DM, or TM; or 10 μg/ml D125A for 24 h, and apoptosis was assayed. (B) Integrin requirements of CCN1-induced apoptosis in HSF. Cells adhered to 6-well plates were either left untreated or pretreated with 50 μg/ml of antibodies against integrin α6 (GoH3), β1 (P5D2), α5 (P1D6), αvβ3 (LM609), or control IgG for 1 h. 10 μg/ml of soluble CCN1 was added where indicated and apoptosis was assayed 24 h thereafter. Error bars represent ± SD from experiments done in triplicate.
