Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a multivalent Kunitz-type protease inhibitor that primarily inhibits the extrinsic pathway of blood coagulation. It is synthesized by various cells and its expression level increases in inflammatory environments. Mast cells and neutrophils accumulate at sites of inflammation and vascular disease where they release proteinases as well as chemical mediators of these conditions. In this study, the interactions between TFPI and serine proteinases secreted from human mast cells and neutrophils were examined. TFPI inactivated human lung tryptase, and its inhibitory activity was stronger than that of antithrombin. In contrast, mast cell chymase rapidly cleaved TFPI even at an enzyme to substrate molar ratio of 1:500, resulting in markedly decreased TFPI anticoagulant and anti-(factor Xa) activities. N-terminal amino-acid sequencing and MS analyses of the proteolytic fragments revealed that chymase preferentially cleaved TFPI at Tyr159-Gly160, Phe181-Glu182, Leu89-Gln90, and Tyr268-Glu269, in that order, resulting in the separation of the three individual Kunitz domains. Neutrophil-derived proteinase 3 also cleaved TFPI, but the reaction was much slower than the chymase reaction. In contrast, alpha-chymotrypsin, which shows similar substrate specificities to those of chymase, resulted in a markedly lower level of TFPI degradation. These data indicate that TFPI is a novel and highly susceptible substrate of chymase. We propose that chymase-mediated proteolysis of TFPI may induce a thrombosis-prone state at inflammatory sites. 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor 2 (TFPI2) is a serine protease inhibitor critical for the regulation of extracellular matrix remodeling and atherosclerotic plaque stability. Previously, we demonstrated that TFPI2 expression is increased in monocytes from patients with familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms responsible for this upregulation, we examined TFPI2 expression in THP-1 macrophages exposed to lipoproteins and thrombin. Our results showed that TFPI2 expression was not affected by treatment with very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), but was induced by thrombin (10 U/ml) in THP-1 (1.9-fold increase, p < 0.001) and human monocyte-derived macrophages (2.3-fold increase, p < 0.005). The specificity of the inductive effect was demonstrated by preincubation with the thrombin inhibitors hirudin and PPACK, which ablated thrombin effects. TFPI2 induction was prevented by pre-incubation with MEK1/2 and JNK inhibitors, but not by the EGF receptor antagonist AG1478. In the presence of parthenolide, an inhibitor of NFκB, but not of SR-11302, a selective AP-1 inhibitor, thrombin-mediated TFPI2 induction was blunted. Our results also show that thrombin treatment increased ERK1/2, JNK and IκBα phosphorylation. Finally, we ruled out the possibility that TFPI2 induction by thrombin was mediated by COX-2, as preincubation with a selective COX-2 inhibitor did not prevent the inductive effect. In conclusion, thrombin induces TFPI2 expression by a mechanism involving ERK1/2 and JNK phosphorylation, leading finally to NFkB activation. In the context of atherosclerosis, thrombin-induced macrophage TFPI2 expression could represent a means of avoiding excessive activation of matrix metalloproteases at sites of inflammation. 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) is a Kunitz-type protease inhibitor that regulates tissue factor-triggered blood coagulation. It has previously been reported that TFPI inhibits the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), suggesting that TFPI may act as more than just a mediator of coagulation through changes in gene expression. By using DNA-array techniques and Northern blot analysis, we here revealed that TFPI transiently induced the mRNA expression of JUNB and GADD45B. The inducible effects were not observed in TFPIdeltaC (lacking the C-terminal basic region) or antithrombin (heparin-binding anticoagulant protease inhibitor). Moreover, the TFPI-induced expression of GADD45B was blocked by receptor-associated protein, which masks the ligand-binding domain of very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDL-R). In conclusion, this is the first report to show an effect of TFPI on mRNA expression, and suggests that TFPI modulates cellular functions by inducing JUNB and GADD45B expression through binding to VLDL-R. 相似文献

Secreted frizzled-related protein (sFRP)-1 is a Wnt antagonist that inhibits breast carcinoma cell motility, whereas the secreted glycoprotein thrombospondin-1 stimulates adhesion and motility of the same cells. We examined whether thrombospondin-1 and sFRP-1 interact directly or indirectly to modulate cell behavior. Thrombospondin-1 bound sFRP-1 with an apparent Kd = 48 nM and the related sFRP-2 with a Kd = 95 nM. Thrombospondin-1 did not bind to the more distantly related sFRP-3. The association of thrombospondin-1 and sFRP-1 is primarily mediated by the amino-terminal N-module of thrombospondin-1 and the netrin domain of sFRP-1. sFRP-1 inhibited α3β1 integrin-mediated adhesion of MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma cells to a surface coated with thrombospondin-1 or recombinant N-module, but not adhesion of the cells on immobilized fibronectin or type I collagen. sFRP-1 also inhibited thrombospondin-1-mediated migration of MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468 breast carcinoma cells. Although sFRP-2 binds similarly to thrombospondin-1, it did not inhibit thrombospondin-1-stimulated adhesion. Thus, sFRP-1 binds to thrombospondin-1 and antagonizes stimulatory effects of thrombospondin-1 on breast carcinoma cell adhesion and motility. These results demonstrate that sFRP-1 can modulate breast cancer cell responses by interacting with thrombospondin-1 in addition to its known effects on Wnt signaling. 相似文献

The tissue factor plays a crucial role in initiating blood coagulation after plaque rupture in patients with acute coronary syndrome. It is abundant in atherosclerotic plaques. Moreover, P-selectin, some cytokines, endotoxin and immune complexes can stimulate monocytes and induce the tissue factor expression on their surface. The aim of the study was to compare plasma levels of the tissue factor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor, P-selectin, E-selectin and ICAM-1 in patients with acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina pectoris, stable coronary artery disease and normal control subjects. In addition, plasma levels of the tissue factor, tissue factor pathway inhibitor, P-selectin, E-selectin and ICAM-1 were measured in the blood withdrawn from the coronary sinus in a subgroup of patients with unstable angina pectoris and stable coronary artery disease in which the difference between concentrations in the coronary sinus and systemic blood was calculated. A significant increase in tissue factor pathway inhibitor plasma levels was detected in patients with acute myocardial infarction (373.3+/-135.1 ng/ml, p<0.01) and unstable angina pectoris (119.6+/-86.9 ng/ml, p<0.05) in contrast to the patients with stable coronary artery disease (46.3+/-37.5 ng/ml) and normal subjects (45.1+/-14.3 ng/ml). The plasma levels of tissue factor pathway inhibitor were significantly increased both in the coronary sinus and systemic blood in the patients with unstable angina pectoris. There was only a non-significant trend to higher plasma levels of the tissue factor in patients with acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina pectoris as compared to the patients with stable coronary artery disease and normal subjects, the values being 129.1+/-30.2 pg/ml, 130.5+/-57.8 pg/ml, 120.2+/-45.1 pg/ml and 124.9+/-31.8 pg/ml, respectively. Plasma levels of soluble P-selectin was only slightly, but non-significantly higher in patients with unstable angina pectoris and stable coronary artery disease (184.2+/-85.4 ng/ml and 201.6+/-67.9 ng/ml, respectively) than in patients with the acute myocardial infarction (157.4+/-88.4 ng/ml) or normal subjects (151.4+/-47.1 ng/ml). The difference in plasma levels of soluble ICAM-1 between the blood withdrawn from the coronary sinus and systemic circulation correlated significantly with the corresponding difference in plasma levels of soluble P-selectin and E-selectin. In conclusion, the tissue factor and the tissue factor pathway inhibitor play a crucial role in the initiation of arterial thrombosis. The tissue factor pathway inhibitor levels are increased both in the systemic blood and in the coronary sinus of patients with the acute coronary syndrome. 相似文献

Type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1), the primary inhibitor of tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), circulates as a complex with the abundant plasma glycoprotein, vitronectin. This interaction stabilizes the inhibitor in its active conformation In this report, the effects of vitronectin on the interactions of PAI-1 with fibrin clots were studied. Confocal microscopic imaging of platelet-poor plasma clots reveals that essentially all fibrin-associated PAI-1 colocalizes with fibrin-bound vitronectin. Moreover, formation of platelet-poor plasma clots in the presence of polyclonal antibodies specific for vitronectin attenuated the inhibitory effects of PAI-1 on t-PA-mediated fibrinolysis. Addition of vitronectin during clot formation markedly potentiates PAI-1-mediated inhibition of lysis of (125)I-labeled fibrin clots by t-PA. This effect is dependent on direct binding interactions of vitronectin with fibrin. There is no significant effect of fibrin-associated vitronectin on fibrinolysis in the absence of PAI-1. The binding of PAI-1 to fibrin clots formed in the absence of vitronectin was characterized by a low affinity (K(d) approximately 3.5 micrometer) and rapid loss of PAI-1 inhibitory activity over time. In contrast, a high affinity and stabilization of PAI-1 activity characterized the cooperative binding of PAI-1 to fibrin formed in the presence of vitronectin. These findings indicate that plasma PAI-1.vitronectin complexes can be localized to the surface of fibrin clots; by this localization, they may modulate fibrinolysis and clot reorganization. 相似文献

Background
Commercial swine breeds in North America undergo two waves of spontaneous fetal loss; one during peri-attachment and another during mid-gestation. Although an exact mechanism for this loss is not known, deficits in vasculature at the attachment sites appear to be a major cause. We hypothesized that a balance between pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors is needed at the maternal-fetal interface for successful conceptus development. Six selected members of the pro-angiogenic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) families and anti-angiogenic factor thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and its receptor CD36 were quantified and localized at the porcine maternal-fetal interface at early and midgestation time points. 相似文献10.

To study cellular and subcellular localization of TIMP-1, we constructed a cDNA which would express a chimeric protein, TIMP-1-EGFP, having the enhanced green fluorescent protein of the jelly fish Aequorea victoria fused to the carboxyl-terminus of TIMP-1. Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells were stably transfected with the TIMP-1-EGFP expressing plasmid. The secreted chimera was processed through the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi, as was shown by fluorescent confocal microscopy after incubations at temperatures which block processing at the intermediate compartment and the trans-Golgi network. In a co-culture system, secreted TIMP-1-EGFP could be visualized binding to the surface of MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells but not non-neoplastic HBL-100 breast epithelial cells. TIMP-1-EGFP localized to the nucleus of MCF-7 cells after 72 hrs in co-culture. These findings suggest that TIMP-1 may preferentially bind to and be taken up by malignant breast epithelial cells and that TIMP-1 may play a yet unidentified role in nuclear functions. 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) contains three Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor domains and is a potent inhibitor of tissue factor-mediated coagulation. Here, we report that TFPI inhibits the proliferation of basic fibroblast growth factor-stimulated endothelial cells. A truncated form of TFPI, containing only the first two Kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor domains, has very little antiproliferative activity, suggesting that the carboxyl-terminal region of TFPI is responsible for this activity. Binding studies revealed that full-length TFPI, but not the truncated TFPI molecule, is recognized by the very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDL receptor) indicating that this receptor is a novel high affinity endothelial cell receptor for TFPI. The antiproliferative activity of TFPI on endothelial cells is inhibited by the receptor-associated protein, a known antagonist of ligand binding by the VLDL receptor, and by anti-VLDL receptor antibodies. These results confirm that the antiproliferative activity of TFPI is mediated by the VLDL receptor and suggest that this receptor-ligand system may be a useful target for the development of new anti-angiogenic and antitumor agents. 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) was reported to suppress the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle
cells (VSMCs) which play an important role in several vascular proliferative disorders including restenosis. Our preliminary
studies demonstrated that TFPI gene induced apoptosis in human vascular smooth muscle cells (hVSMCs). The current study was
designed to address the role TFPI gene plays in the cell cycle of hVSMCs. hVSMCs isolated from human umbilical artery were
transfected with pIRES-TFPI plasmid which expresses TFPI in eukaryotic cells. As measured by RT-PCR, the expression of TFPI
was elevated in the TFPI treated cells, leading to the arrest of the cells at G1 phase as analyzed by flow cytometry. Further
study by Western blotting demonstrated that TFPI gene transfer increased the amount of p21 and p53 and decreased the amount
of cyclin D and phosphorylated cdk4 and cdk6 in the cells. 相似文献

Tumoral angiogenesis is regulated by the balance between factors that activate and inhibit angiogenesis. Elevated levels of activators have been associated with a poor prognosis in cancer patients, but little is known about the net balance between circulating activators and inhibitors in these patients. This study was designed to determine whether the balance between circulating concentrations of the angiogenesis inhibitor TSP-1 and the activator VEGF differs from that in healthy persons, and to shed light on the possible role of platelets in this balance. Twenty-five cancer patients and 18 healthy subjects were included. Serum and plasma concentrations of VEGF, TSP-1 and PF4 were measured by ELISA. Our results showed that in healthy subjects the balance between the TSP-1 and VEGF concentrations in serum and in serum minus plasma was twice to three times as high as in cancer patients (p < 0.05). The theoretical TSP-1 content per platelet was greater in healthy subjects than in patients (94 vs. 53.6 ng/mL, p < 0.05), and platelet activation (determined indirectly as the plasma concentration of PF4) was greater in cancer patients (129 vs. 48 IU/mL, p < 0.01). Platelet activation correlated significantly with serum concentration of TSP-1 (r = 0.470, p = 0.018) and showed a tendency toward correlation with plasma concentration of TSP-1 (r = 0.382, p = 0.059). Our findings show that the circulating TSP-1/VEGF balance is diminished in cancer patients. Platelet activation may play an important role in this decrease and may ultimately lead to increased angiogenic activity in these patients. 相似文献

Activation of platelet-transforming growth factor beta-1 in the absence of thrombospondin-1 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) has been shown to bind and activate transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1). This observation raises the possibility that TSP-1 helps to sequester TGF-beta1 in platelet alpha granules and activates TGF-beta1 once both proteins are secreted. Herein, we evaluated the level of active and latent TGF-beta1 in the plasma and in the supernatant of thrombin-treated platelets from TSP-1 null and wild-type mice on two genetic backgrounds (C57BL/6 and 129Sv). The plasminogen activator inhibitor-1/luciferase bioassay and an immunological assay were used to determine active and latent TGF-beta1. No significant differences were observed in the levels of active and latent TGF-beta1 in the supernatant of thrombin-treated platelets from TSP-1 null and wild-type mice. Active and latent TGF-beta1 were significantly increased in the plasma and platelets of C57BL/6 mice as compared with 129Sv mice. In addition, there was an increase of plasma level of latent TGF-beta1 in TSP-1 null mice as compared with wild-type mice on the C57BL/6 background but not on the 129Sv background. No active TGF-beta1 was observed in the plasma of either TSP-1 null and wild-type mice. These data indicate that TSP-1 does not function as a chaperon for TGF-beta1 during platelet production and does not activate significant quantities of secreted TGF-beta1 despite a vast excess in the number of TSP-1 molecules as compared with TGF-beta1 molecules. Because platelet releasates from TSP-1 null mice contain active TGF-beta1, we suggest that other important mechanisms of physiological activation of TGF-beta1 probably exist in platelets. 相似文献

In a cell-free system prepared by lysis of protoplasts of Cephalosporium acremonium mutant M-0198, isopenicillin N was converted into a penicillinase-resistant material that behaved like deacetoxycephalosporin C on high-pressure liquid chromatography analysis. This activity was found to be unstable to storage at -80 degrees C; 70-80% of the activity was lost after 1 day. 相似文献

The platelet glycoprotein thrombospondin binds specifically to sulfated glycolipids 总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29

The human platelet glycoprotein thrombospondin (TSP) binds specifically and with high affinity to sulfatides (galactosylceramide-I3-sulfate). Binding of 125I-TSP to lipids from sheep and human erythrocytes and human platelets resolved on thin layer chromatograms indicates that sulfatides are the only lipids in the membrane which bind TSP. Binding to less than 2 ng of sulfatide could be detected. TSP failed to bind to other purified lipids including cholesterol 3-sulfate, phospholipids, neutral glycolipids, and gangliosides. Binding of 125I-TSP was inhibited by unlabeled TSP, by low pH, and by reduction of intersubunit disulfide bonds with dithiothreitol. A monoclonal antibody against TSP (A2.5), which inhibits hemagglutination and agglutination of fixed activated platelets by TSP, strongly inhibited TSP binding to sulfatides. A second monoclonal antibody (C6.7), which inhibits hemagglutination and aggregation of thrombin-activated live platelets, weakly inhibited sulfatide binding. Binding was inhibited by high ionic strength and by some monosaccharide sulfates including methyl-alpha-D-GlcNAc-3-sulfate. Neutral sugars did not inhibit. Fucoidan, a sulfated fucan, strongly inhibited binding with 50% inhibition at 0.3 micrograms/ml fucoidan. Other sulfated polysaccharides including heparin and dextran sulfates were good inhibitors, whereas hyaluronic acid and keratan sulfate were very weak. 相似文献

IL-18 is a pleiotropic cytokine that is produced by many cancer cells. A recent report suggested that IL-18 plays a key role in regulating the immune escape of melanoma and gastric cancer cells. Thrombospondin (TSP-1) is known to inhibit angiogenesis in several cancers but some studies have reported that it stimulates angiogenesis in some cancers such as gastric cancer. IL-18 and TSP-1 are related to tumor proliferation and metastasis. This study investigated the relationship between IL-18 and TSP-1 in gastric cancer. RT-PCR and ELISA showed that after the cells had been treated with IL-18, the level of TSP-1 mRNA expression and TSP-1 protein production by IL-18 increased in both a dose- and time-dependent manner. The cells were next treated with specific inhibitors in order to determine the signal pathway involved in IL-18-enhanced TSP-1 production. IL-18-enhanced TSP-1 expression was blocked by SP600125, a c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) specific inhibitor. In addition, Western blot showed that IL-18 enhanced the expression of phosphorylated JNK. Overall, these results suggest that IL-18 plays a key role in TSP-1 expression involving JNK. 相似文献

Tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) blocks tissue factor-factor VIIa (TF-FVIIa) activation of factors X and IX through the formation of the TF-FVIIa-FXa-TFPI complex. Most TFPI in vivo associates with caveolae in endothelial cells (EC). The mechanism of this association and the anticoagulant role of caveolar TFPI are not yet known. Here we show that expression of caveolin-1 (Cav-1) in 293 cells keeps TFPI exposed on the plasmalemma surface, decreases the membrane lateral mobility of TFPI, and increases the TFPI-dependent inhibition of TF-FVIIa. Caveolae-associated TFPI supports the co-localization of the quaternary complex with caveolae. To investigate the significance of these observations for EC we used RNA interference to deplete the cells of Cav-1. Functional assays and fluorescence microscopy revealed that the inhibitory properties of TFPI were diminished in EC lacking Cav-1, apparently through deficient assembly of the quaternary complex. These findings demonstrate that caveolae regulate the inhibition by cell-bound TFPI of the active protease production by the extrinsic pathway of coagulation. 相似文献
