Detection of Mouse MCAM/CD146 by Immunocytochemistry/Immunofluorescence MCAM is required to establish cell autonomous polarity. (A) In elongating myotubes (10T1/2 cells treated with testosterone for 7 days) VANGL2 is localized asymmetrically at the tip of the cell. (B) The VANGL2 enriched tip of the cell is marked by MSN. (C) In MCAM knockout C164 cells myotube elongation fails, MSN labels the whole plasma membrane and VANGL2 is spread across the cytoplasm. (D) Highly polarized localization of MCAM and SCRIB at the distal end of growing wild-type myotube. Separate channels of the boxed area are shown on the right. (E) In MCAM knockout cells SCRIB levels remain low and it is spread evenly in the cell. (F) In wild-type myotubes PAR3 remains cytoplasmic, whereas (G) in MCAM knockout C164 cells it can be detected at the cell cortex. (H) RT-qPCR demonstrates reduced expression of Scrib in MCAM mutant cell lines. Cells were treated for 7 days with BMP2 or testosterone (n=3; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001; two-tailed t-test; mean±s.e.m.). (I) Deletion of MCAM endocytosis motif leads to similar polarity defects as complete MCAM elimination. VANGL2 is evenly spread in U125 cells and PAR3 accumulates in cell cortex. (J) In chondrogenic differentiation VANGL2 was observed asymmetrically in limited number of cells. In MCAM mutant cell lines (C149, C164, U125) VANGL2 accumulated around the nucleus. (K) Initiation of myogenic (4-day culture with testosterone) and chondrogenic differentiation (4-day culture with BMP2) led to downregulation of ERK1/2 phosphorylation (p-ERK1/2). Instead in MCAM mutant cell lines ERK1/2 phosphorylation increased. Scale bars: 25 µm.

Background: MCAM/CD146

MCAM (Melanoma cell adhesion molecule; also CD146 and MUC18) is a 110‑120 kDa member of a small group of Ig‑superfamily molecules that includes CD239 and CD166. MCAM has also been reported at a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa. In rodent, MCAM is reportedly expressed on neurons, endothelial cells, NK cells, neutrophils, mesenchymal stem cells and melanoma cells. MCAM appears to contribute to intercellular endothelial cell junctions, and possibly contributes to the migration of select cell types. Mature mouse MCAM is a 625 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane glycoprotein. Its extracellular region is 540 aa in length (aa 24‑563). It contains two V‑type Ig‑like domains (aa 24‑244) followed by three C2‑type Ig‑like domains (aa 246‑512). One cytoplasmic region splice form shows a seven aa substitution for aa 600‑648. Unlike human, rodent MCAM does not undergo a splicing event that will generate a soluble isoform. Over aa 24‑563, mouse MCAM shares 90% and 74% aa identity with rat and human MCAM, respectively.
