Abstract:
:Cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC) secrete into their medium a growth-promoting factor that stimulates many connective tissue cells in culture. We now report that this growth-promoting activity is due to at least two different proteins which are biochemically separable and immunologically distinct. Cation exchange chromatography (Carboxymethyl-Sephadex) of concentrated BAEC-conditioned medium yields two major peaks of growth-promoting activity which adsorb at pH 8 and elute with a salt gradient. One of these peaks contains as well a protein that inhibits the binding of radioiodinated platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) to its receptor on target cells. The PDGF-like mitogen is purified approx. 25-fold by this chromatographic step. A second peak of mitogenic activity exhibits no binding to the PDGF receptor. Both the PDGF-like mitogenic activity and the PDGF-distinct mitogenic activity are highly cationic, stable to boiling, sensitive to beta-mercaptoethanol, and between 30 and 50 kD in molecular weight. Complementary studies with human umbilical vein endothelial cells in culture were performed. These human cells also produce both growth-promoting activity and a protein that binds to the PDGF receptor. The latter activity is greatly inhibited by a specific antiserum to human PDGF, whereas the growth-promoting activity of the conditioned medium is minimally affected. The degree of inhibition of the two activities is, however, quantitatively consistent: 3.5 ng of PDGF-like activity in the radioreceptor assay is inhibited, while 5 ng of PDGF-like activity in the DNA synthesis assay is inhibited. The data from the two species are consistent with the proposal that cultured endothelial cells produce at least two distinct mitogens, one of which is biochemically and immunologically related to PDGF.
