| Background |
|---|
| Vitronectin (VTN/S-Protein), a conformationally dynamic 478-amino-acid glycoprotein (~75 kDa) secreted by hepatocytes into plasma and incorporated into ECM as single-chain or proteolytically cleaved two-chain (65/10 kDa) multimers linked by Cys156–Cys472 disulfide, orchestrates cell-ECM adhesion, coagulation-fibrinolysis balance, and complement regulation through ligand-inducible structural transitions. The N-terminal somatomedin B domain (residues 1–44, cysteine-knot with four intradomain disulfides) binds PAI-1/uPAR to stabilize antiprotease activity, while the cryptic RGD motif (Arg45-Gly46-Asp47) in the flexible hinge exposes upon "open" conformation for high-affinity αvβ3/αvβ5/αIIbβ3 integrin ligation, triggering FAK/Src-PI3K/AKT-YAP/TAZ mechanosignaling for migration/proliferation; three polybasic heparin-binding domains (HBD1–3) anchor glycosaminoglycans, and C-terminal hemopexin-like β-propeller (four HX repeats, residues 128–478) serves as multivalent hub docking collagen IV/X/tenascin/plasminogen via HX2–3 interfaces. Vitronectin restrains terminal complement by binding C5b-7 to block MAC pore formation, protects endothelium during thrombosis via thrombin-antithrombin trapping, and coordinates wound healing through RGD-integrin-ECM haptotaxis. It drives cancer metastasis (breast/ovarian) via MMP2/9 activation and uPAR signaling, accumulates in atherosclerotic plaques/fibrotic stroma enhancing collagen stability, facilitates bacterial pathogenesis (Yersinia Ail-mediated complement evasion), and deposits in AMD drusen/AD amyloid plaques, positioning RGD-mimetic antagonists and HX-domain inhibitors as therapeutics for thrombosis, tumor invasion, and sterile inflammation. |
