G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) translate the actions of hormones and neurotransmitters into intracellular signalling events. Mutations in GPCRs can prevent their correct expression and trafficking to the cell surface and cause disease. Single cell subcellular localisation measurements reveal that while some cells appear to traffic the majority of the vasopressin 2 receptor (V2R) molecules to the cell surface, others retain a greater number of receptors in the ER or have approximately equal distribution. Mutations in the V2R affect the proportion of cells able to send this GPCR to their cell surface but surprisingly they do not prevent all cells from correctly trafficking the mutant receptors. These findings reveal the potential for rescue of mutant receptor cell surface expression by pharmacological manipulation of the GPCR folding and trafficking machinery.

Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-deficient placentas exhibit a number of defects, including changes in cell fate adoption, lack of fetal angiogenesis, hypocellularity, and poor invasion into maternal tissue. HIF is a heterodimeric transcription factor consisting of α and β aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator or ARNT) subunits. We used undifferentiated trophoblast stem (TS) cells to characterize HIF-dependent adhesion, migration, and invasion. Arnt-/- and Hifα-/- TS cells exhibit reduced adhesion and migration toward vitronectin compared with wild-type cells. Furthermore, this defect is associated with decreased cell surface expression of integrin αvβ3 and significantly decreased expression of this integrin in focal adhesions. Because of the importance of adhesion and migration in tumor progression (in addition to placental development), we examined the affect of culturing B16F0 melanoma cells in 1.5% oxygen (O2). Culturing B16F0 melanoma cells at 1.5% O2 resulted in increased αvβ3 integrin surface expression and increased adhesion to and migration toward vitronectin. Together, these data suggest that HIF and O2 tension influence placental invasion and tumor migration by increasing cell surface expression of αvβ3 integrin.
