    Millipore aiib2 blocking anti-integrin β1 antibody
    Targeting apical integrins with <t>AIIB2</t> nanowires produces a ruffled ZO-1 morphology. (A) Schematic of the general reduction and conjugation reactions that generate the antibody-decorated nanowires used in these experiments. (B) Representative immunofluorescence image of bare nanowires (labeled with Nile Red; red) on Caco-2 cells labeled with anti-ZO-1 antibodies (cyan). Scale bar: 10 μm. Image representative of five experiments. (C) Representative immunofluorescence images of Caco-2 cells labeled with anti-ZO-1 antibodies either untreated or 2 h after treatment with bare nanowires, IgG control nanowires, free reduced antibody (9EG7 or AIIB2), or anti-integrin nanowires (9EG7 or AIIB2). Scale bar: 30 μm. (D) Changes in ZO-1 morphology are quantified by measuring the ratio of the traced actual length between tricellular junctions (trace A) and the linear distance between those same junctions (trace B). (E,F) Quantification of junction length ratios (E) and percent of cells in a field of view with one or more ruffled junction (F) for each treatment displayed as mean±s.d. ( n =3 fields of view from three slides per condition; 25 measurements per field of view). Treatment key on left (Ab, antibody). Significance determined by one-way ANOVA with Fisher's LSD test.

    Nanowires differentially affect different claudins. (A–C) Representative immunofluorescence images of Caco-2 cells colabeled to detect ZO-1 (magenta) and either claudin-4 (A), claudin-7 (B) or E-cadherin (C) (all cyan). Cells were fixed 2 h after treatment with either bare, 9EG7 or AIIB2 nanowires (nw). Arrowheads show the ruffled appearance of claudin-4 colocalizing with ZO-1; arrows indicate areas of claudin-7 (B) and E-cadherin (C) that do not colocalize with ruffled ZO-1. Scale bars: 10 μm. Images are representative of three independent experiments.

    Talin reorganization in response to nanowires. Representative immunofluorescence images of talin (magenta) and claudin-4 (cyan) in Caco-2 cells fixed 2 h after the indicated nanowire (nw) treatment. Representative line scans as indicated in the merged images were measured using ImageJ to indicate colocalization of talin and claudin-4 in cells treated with bare nanowires (A,B), 9EG7 nanowires (C,D) or AIIB2 nanowires (E,F). Cells treated with bare nanowires or 9EG7 nanowires showed good concordance between talin and claudin-4; however, the distribution of junction-associated talin did not match the distribution of claudin-4 in cells treated with AIIB2 nanowires. Scale bars: 10 μm. Images are representative of two independent experiments.

    Actin reorganization in response to nanowires. (A) Representative fluorescence images of F-actin (labeled using rhodamine–phalloidin) in Caco-2 cells fixed 2 h after the indicated nanowire (nw) treatment. Scale bar: 10 μm.

Data are presented as mean±s.d. calculated from 10 cells in a representative field, showing less cytosolic actin for AIIB2 nanowire-treated cells. ** P =0.0018, * P =0.025. Significance determined by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons.

Cells were then fixed, immunostained for ZO-1, and imaged. Representative images of ZO-1 immunostaining are shown. Scale bar: 10 μm. (E) Junction length ratios were calculated for cells as in D. Data are presented as mean±s.d. [ n =3 fields of view from one slide (Y-27632) or two slides per condition; 15 measurements per field of view]. ML-7 and Y-27632 significantly inhibited the effects of A2BII nanowires on junction length ratio (** P =0.0011; * P =0.013). Untreated cells had significantly lower junction length ratio than control AIIB2 nanowire-treated cells (*** P <0.0002). Significance was determined by one-way ANOVA with Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (ns, not significant).

    Model of the impact of anti-integrin nanowires on organization of tight junction proteins and actin. In this model, 9EG7 activating nanowires cluster integrin β1 to promote recruitment of actin, ZO-1 and talin to sites where tight junctions form, increasing their function. By contrast, AIIB2 blocking nanowires decrease actin and talin recruitment, which causes claudins to separate into distinct pools, increasing tight junction permeability.
