Structural alterations in fibronectin correlated with morphological changes in smooth muscle cells.

Abstract:

:Nontransformed cultures of vascular smooth muscle cells proliferate until they form a confluent sheet of cells. Subsequently, the cells become reorganized to form multicellular nodules that are loosely attached to the substrate. The formation of nodules is facilitated by the addition of medium conditioned by nodular cultures. Nodulation is inhibited by the addition of fibronectin. Fibronectins derived from monolayer culture conditioned medium or from plasma are maximally effective while fibronectin isolated from nodular cell conditioned medium is inactive. Analysis by NaDodSO4-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis reveals that the nodular cell fibronectin has a molecular weight that is about 20-30 kd less than that of monolayer cell fibronectin. Further, nodular cell conditioned medium contains an activity that can convert both plasma fibronectin and monolayer cell fibronectin to the lower molecular weight correlated with the loss of biological activity.
