PG - 3613-3627 AB - Extracellular matrix remodeling by cell adhesion-related processes is critical for proliferation and tissue homeostasis, but how adhesions and the cytoskeleton interact to organize the pericellular matrix (PCM) is not understood. We examined the role of the actin-binding protein, filamin A (FLNa), in pericellular collagen remodeling. Compared with wild-type (WT), mice with fibroblast-specific deletion of FLNa exhibited higher density but reduced organization of collagen fibers after increased loading of the periodontal ligament for 2 wk. In cultured fibroblasts, FLNa knockdown (KD) did not affect collagen mRNA, but after 24 h of culture, FLNa WT cells exhibited approximately 2-fold higher cell-surface collagen KD cells and 13-fold higher levels of activated beta1 integrins. In FLNa WT cells, there was 3-fold more colocalization of talin with pericellular cleaved collagen than in FLNa KD cells. MMP-9 mRNA and protein expression were >2-fold higher in FLNa KD cells than in WT cells. Cathepsin B, which is necessary for intracellular collagen digestion, was >3-fold higher in FLNa WT cells than in KD cells. FLNa WT cells exhibited 2-fold more collagen phagocytosis than KD cells, which involved the FLNa actin-binding domain. Evidently, FLNa regulates PCM remodeling through its effects on degradation pathways that affect the abundance and organization of collagen.-Mezawa, M., Pinto, V. I., Kazembe, M. P., Lee, W.
