Abstract:
:Type 1 transforming growth factor-beta (TGF beta 1) was found to be a potent inducer of the secretion of a 49,000 mol wt protein by normal rat kidney (NRK) cells. This protein was related to type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) on the basis of molecular mass, activity in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate, immunoprecipitation by antibodies to PAI-1, and N-terminal sequence analysis. PAI-1 levels in the conditioned medium of NRK cells were increased 5- to 11-fold when cells were incubated with picomolar concentrations of TGF beta 1 for 24 h, reaching a concentration of approximately 0.3 microgram/ml. The secreted PAI-1 was deposited in the NRK extracellular matrix as well as released into the culture medium. A spontaneously transformed NRK cell line was found to secrete 3-4 times less PAI-1, in the absence or presence of TGF beta 1, compared to the parent cell line, while PAI-1 secretion in Kirsten sarcoma virus-transformed NRK cells was almost completely abrogated. A novel purification procedure was established, which results in the isolation of highly active and detergent-free TGF beta 1-induced PAI-1.
