It is supplied to the cell via several transporters and receptors, including folate receptor (FR) b, a GPI-anchored protein belonging to the folate receptor family. As FRb shows a restricted expression to cells of myeloid origin and only a subset of activated macrophages and placental cells have been shown to express functional FRb, it represents a promising target for future thera- peutic strategies. In this study, we performed affinity purification and mass spectrometric analysis of the protein microenviron- ment of FRb in the plasma membrane of human FRb+ macrophages and FRb-transduced monocytic THP-1 cells. In this manner, Downloaded from we identified a novel role of FRb: that is, we report functional interactions of FRb with receptors mediating cellular adhesion, in particular the CD11b/CD18 b2 integrin heterodimer complement receptor type 3/Mac-1. This interaction results in impeded adhesion of FRb+ human primary macrophages and THP-1 cells to collagen in comparison with their FRb2 counterparts. We further show that FRb is only expressed by human macrophages when differentiated with M-CSF. These findings thus identify FRb as a novel CD11b/CD18 regulator for trafficking and homing of a subset of macrophages on collagen.
