abstract = {Integrins are adhesion receptors that mediate cell adhesion
and play an important function in many biological processes
such as morphogenesis and tissue remodeling. These membrane
proteins specifically interact with a short tripeptide
sequence, RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp), present in numerous
extracellular macromolecules. Model systems have been
developed in order to understand how membrane adhesion is
induced by this specific RGD peptide ligand/integrin
recognition system. We have previously shown that RGD giant
vesicles selectively adhere to endothelial cells by
formation of pinning centers. Nevertheless, the nature of
the lipids located in the adhesion contact zone is unknown.
One hypothesis is that the lipidic ligands migrate to the
contact zone where they are confined after binding to the
receptor. To study the possible formation of ligand domains
within the vesicle bilayer, we synthesized a fluorescently
labeled RGD lipid that can be easily incorporated in giant
vesicles. Adhesion of giant RGD vesicles onto an
integrin-functionalized surface was followed simultaneously
by reflection interference contrast microscopy and
fluorescence microscopy. For the first time, it was possible
to observe the microsegregation of RGD lipids in the contact
zone during adhesion. Additionally, we observed interesting
photosensitive properties of the chalcone chromophore that
could lead to a new method of analyzing the lipid
organization within the membrane during adhesion and to the
design of new ligand lipids and vesicle vectors for cell
targeting.},
