The binding of [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I ([125I]IGF-I) to human skin fibroblasts (HSF) is regulated by multiple factors. In monolayers of HSF, IGF-I binds to both the type I IGF receptor and IGF-binding proteins (BPs) associated with the cell surface. [125I]IGF-I binding to both of these proteins depends markedly on the sodium chloride concentration of the binding buffer. In monolayers of HSF, replacing 120 mM NaCl with isoosmotic concentrations of sucrose increases binding of [125I]IGF-I by 2- to 6-fold. Enhancement of [125I]IGF-I binding in the absence of sodium chloride is also seen in HSF in suspension, in human erythrocytes, in monolayers of HEP G2 cells and FRTL5 cells, and in membranes prepared from human placentae. Kinetic analysis of [125I]IGF-I binding to HSF monolayers reveals that association rates are increased and dissociation rates are decreased in the absence of sodium chloride. The binding of [125I]alpha IR-3, a monoclonal antibody to the human type I IGF receptor, to monolayers and suspensions of HSF also depends on the sodium ion concentration; it is 5- to 7-fold higher in the absence of sodium chloride. Binding of [125I]IGF-I to monolayers of HSF also depends on NaCl under conditions where alpha IR-3 saturates the type I IGF receptor but does not affect IGF-BPs. These findings demonstrate that sodium chloride has a marked effect on the interaction of IGF-I with the type I IGF receptor in the plasma membrane and with BPs associated with the surface of intact HSFs. Since an effect is also evident in membranes prepared from intact tissues (human placenta), occurs at 4 C, and occurs with cells devoid of BPs, a mechanism involving receptor or BP translocation seems unlikely, at least as the sole explanation for these findings. Sodium ions (and other ions) may induce a conformational change in the receptor and BPs and cause decreased availability of both the IGF-I-binding site and the alpha IR-3 epitope on the receptor and the IGF-binding site on the BP.
