The insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) have IGF-independent differential effects on cell function. We investigated whether they can affect integrin-receptor-mediated cell attachment to different extracellular matrix (ECM) components in Hs578T cells. Cell attachment to a general ECM gel was unaffected by IGFBP-1 and -6 but was significantly increased by IGFBP-4 and -5 and decreased by IGFBP-2 and -3. Similar results were obtained for attachment to laminin or collagen type IV. Attachment to fibronectin, however, was increased by IGFBP-3 and decreased by IGFBP-5. The actions of IGFBP-3 and -5 on cell attachment to ECM were lost in the presence of a soluble Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD)-containing fibronectin fragment. Thrombospondin reversed the actions of IGFBP-3 on cell attachment, but IGFBP-5 still increased cell attachment. On plastic, neither IGFBP-3 nor -5 alone affected cell viability; although ceramide-induced apoptosis was enhanced by IGFBP-3 but reduced by IGFBP-5. The presence of RGD reversed the action of IGFBP-5 on cell death but attenuated that of IGFBP-3. With cells grown on fibronectin, the action of IGFBP-3 was reversed, and it conferred cell survival, whereas the survival effect of IGFBP-5 was lost. In summary we have demonstrated that IGFBP-3 and -5 both have intrinsic effects on cell survival. In each case the presence of fibronectin or fibronectin fragments determines whether susceptibility to apoptosis is increased or decreased. These effects on cell survival are paralleled by acute effects on integrin receptor function; IGFBP-3 and -5 were able to either enhance or inhibit cell attachment in the presence of fibronectin. Cell survival is tightly controlled by cues from the ECM and from growth factors, particularly the IGFs. Our findings indicate that, in addition to being crucial modulators of IGF actions, the IGFBPs have direct actions on cell attachment and survival that are specific and dependent upon the matrix components present.
