Abstract
Vascular smooth muscle cell migration is important in vascular disease. Previously, we showed thrombospondin-1 activates focal adhesion kinase in these cells. We hypothesized that focal adhesion kinase is important for thrombspondin-1-induced vascular smooth muscle cell migration. Bovine aortic smooth muscle cells were transfected with FAK397, FAK-wild type, pcDNA, or beta-Gal plasmids. Migration was assessed with thrombospondin-1 or serum-free medium in quiescent transfected cells or quiescent cells pretreated with the focal adhesion kinase inhibitor, geldanamycin. Number of cells migrated per 5 fields (x400) were recorded. Antihemagglutinin immunoprecipitation and Western blot were used to examine thrombospondin-1-induced focal adhesion kinase phosphorylation in transfected cells. FAK397 transfection inhibited thrombospondin-1-induced focal adhesion kinase phosphorylation and migration (P < .05). Geldanamycin inhibited thrombospondin-1-induced smooth muscle cell migration (P < .05). In conclusion, vascular smooth muscle cells transfected with FAK397 inhibited thrombosponin-1-induced migration and tyrosine phosphorylation. Further, geldanamycin also inhibited migration. These results suggest focal adhesion kinase is involved in thrombospondin-1-induced vascular smooth muscle cell migration.

Abstract
The role of thrombospondin on the adhesion of endothelial cells in primary culture was studied using a serum-free defined medium or thrombospondin-depleted fetal bovine serum. Under these conditions, only 6% of the cells adhered to gelatin-coated dishes, whereas cells adhering to gelatin in the presence of normal fetal bovine serum were considered as 100% adhesion. The percentage of cells attached to fibronectin or thrombospondin-coated dishes in thrombospondin-depleted serum was 66 and 32%, respectively. The addition of purified platelet thrombospondin to thrombospondin-depleted serum increased the adhesion of endothelial cells to gelatin and to thrombospondin, up to 32 and 59%, respectively, and restored the attachment to fibronectin to the same extent as that observed in the presence of normal serum. In contrast to the attachment, the spreading of the adhering cells was not further influenced by the addition of soluble thrombospondin. Subcultured cells did not require any protein for adhering to gelatin substrata. These observations indicate that thrombospondin plays a major role in the adhesion of endothelial cells in primary culture.

Abstract
We previously showed that thrombospondin, a major alpha-granule glycoprotein of human platelets, forms a specific complex with osteonectin, a phosphoglycoprotein originally described in bone that is also present in human platelets. The storage organelles and the function of osteonectin in platelets are still unknown. In this study, using electron microscopy in combination with immunogold staining, the major storage organelle for platelet-secreted proteins, the alpha-granules. Furthermore, osteonectin was qualitatively and quantitatively assessed by studying normal platelets and the platelets from a patient with gray platelet syndrome. Gray platelet syndrome is a rare congenital bleeding disorder characterized by a selective deficiency in morphologically recognizable platelet alpha-granules and in the alpha-granule secretory proteins. Binding of an iodinated antiosteonectin monoclonal antibody to gray platelet proteins transferred to nitrocellulose from SDS-polyacrylamide gels showed no band corresponding to osteonectin compared to control platelets. Using a polyclonal antiosteonectin antibody-based radioimmunoassay, gray platelets contained 0.2 +/- 0.03 ng osteonectin per 10(6) platelets, which is only 20% of the normal platelet content of osteonectin (0.93 +/- 0.16 ng per 10(6) platelets). Study of the localization of osteonectin to the surface of human platelets demonstrated that a radioiodinated antiosteonectin polyclonal antibody bound specifically to thrombin-stimulated platelets but not to resting platelets. Binding was concentration-dependent, saturable (1710 +/- 453 binding sites per platelet, Kd = 1 microM), and inhibited by an excess of cold antiosteonectin polyclonal antibody. No binding was observed on the surface of thrombin-stimulated gray platelets. To gain further insights into the role of osteonectin released from activated platelets, the effect of an antiosteonectin polyclonal antibody was tested on the aggregation of washed platelets. F(ab')2 fragments from the antiosteonectin polyclonal antibody inhibited in a dose-dependent manner the aggregation of collagen-stimulated, washed human platelets without affecting collagen-induced platelet serotonin release. To characterize the mechanism through which antiosteonectin F(ab')2 fragments inhibit platelet aggregation, the expression of endogenous thrombospondin (TSP) on the surface of thrombin-activated platelets was studied using 125I-labeled anti-TSP monoclonal antibody P10. The endogenous surface expression of TSP to thrombin-stimulated platelets was significantly inhibited in the presence of antiosteonectin F(ab')2 fragments (6286 +/- 2065 molecules of P10 per platelet) compared to 11,230 +/- 766 molecules of P10 per platelet in the presence of nonimmune F(ab')2 fragments.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)

Abstract
The translational diffusion coefficient (D20,w) of human platelet thrombospondin was measured by dynamic light-scattering. D20,w, measured in 20 mM-Hepes buffer, pH 7.4, containing 350 mM-NaCl and 2 mM-CaCl2, was 1.73(+/- 0.02) x 10(-7) cm2.s-1. After removal of bound Ca2+ by addition of EDTA, D20,w decreased to 1.56(+/- 0.04) x 10(-7) cm2.s-1; this was not a consequence of aggregation. D20,w showed little sensitivity to NaCl concentration between 130 and 550 mM. Through hydrodynamic analysis combining D20,w and other parameters taken from the literature, two major types of models for thrombospondin can be proposed: either classic compact models (i.e. low degree of hydration) such as prolate or oblate ellipsoids with a high axial ratio (greater than 20) or models of low axial ratio made of multiple subunits with significant cavities (i.e. high degree of hydration).

Abstract
We have mapped the thrombospondin gene (THBS1) to a single locus on human chromosome 15 (band q15) and on mouse chromosome 2 (region F). Thrombospondin has been implicated in a variety of cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions. The finding of a single locus suggests that the different functions of thrombospondin are not due to a closely related family of genes. These results also confirm a region of homology between the proximal part of human chromosome 15 and region F of mouse chromosome 2.

Abstract
Thrombospondin is a large multifunctional glycoprotein synthesized, secreted and incorporated into the extracellular matrix by several cell types in culture. It is also present in the blood platelet and is secreted following platelet activation. We have previously shown that thrombospondin co-distributes with fibronectin in the extracellular matrix and that it can bind directly to purified fibronectin. In order to elucidate the chemical aspects of thrombospondin incorporation into the extracellular matrix, we studied the interaction of endothelial cell thrombospondin and fibronectin. We find that endothelial cell thrombospondin has two distinct binding domains for fibronectin. One domain is on the 70-kDa core fragment, probably similar to that of platelet thrombospondin. The other domain is on the 27-kDa N-terminal fragment and is unique to endothelial cell thrombospondin. The dissociation constant of the intact endothelial-cell-derived molecule is 0.7 +/- 0.2 x 10(-7) M. Following fragmentation, the separate domains bind with somewhat lower affinity: the core domain binds with a Kd of 3.4 +/- 1.5 x 10(-7) M and the N-terminal domain binds with a Kd of 8.8 +/- 1.8 x 10(-7) M. Binding of the intact molecule is Ca2+-independent. By contrast, following tryptic fragmentation, binding of the 70-kDa fragment is practically lost. It can be restored, however, by removal of Ca2+, indicating that the binding site on this domain is either sequestered or becomes so following fragmentation. Heparin, which also binds to both fragments, competed with fibronectin binding to the 27-kDa fragment but not to the 70-kDa domain. The fact that heparin also competitively inhibits fibronectin binding of the intact molecule further supports sequestration of the fibronectin-binding domain on the 70-kDa core fragment. Our data suggest that endothelial-cell thrombospondin possesses two distinct binding sites for fibronectin, a low-affinity constitutively available one and a high-affinity one, possibly sequestered on the intact unbound molecule.

Abstract
In this study we have shown by both immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation techniques that human osteoblasts and osteosarcoma cells synthesize and secrete thrombospondin, a 450-kDa glycoprotein initially found in platelets. Immunofluorescence with a mouse monoclonal antibody to human platelet thrombospondin yielded specific granular staining within the cytoplasm of human osteoblasts. SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of immunoprecipitates obtained with polyclonal and monoclonal anti-thrombospondin antibodies allows the identification of thrombospondin in the cellular lysates and the culture media of biosynthetically labelled osteoblasts and osteosarcoma cells. Kinetic and dose/response studies of osteoblasts and of two osteosarcoma cell lines (MG-63, SaOs-2) were performed to assess the ability of these cells to adhere to thrombospondin and type-I collagen. Thrombospondin promoted the attachment of human osteoblasts whereas it inhibited the adhesion of MG-63 and SaOs-2 cells, both when it was directly adsorbed to plastic and when it was bound to type-I collagen. Therefore osteoblasts and osteosarcoma cells may be valuable tools to study the role of thrombospondin in cell adhesion.

Abstract
The asparagine-linked sugar chains of human platelet thrombospondin were released as oligosaccharides by hydrazinolysis. About 12 mol of sugar chains was released from one thrombospondin molecule. This was converted to radioactive oligosaccharides by sodium borotritide reduction after N-acetylation, and separated into one neutral and four acidic fractions by paper electrophoresis. More than 90% of the oligosaccharides were recovered in the acidic fraction. The acidic oligosaccharides were mostly converted to neutral oligosaccharides by sialidase treatment, indicating that they are sialyl derivatives. The neutral and sialidase-treated acidic oligosaccharides were further fractionated by Bio-Gel P-4 column chromatography. Structural study of each oligosaccharide by sequential exoglycosidase digestion and methylation analysis revealed that the thrombospondin contains mono-, bi-, tri-, and tetraantennary complex-type sugar chains in addition to a small amount of high-mannose type. Approximately 70% of the complex-type sugar chains was fucosylated at asparagine-linked N-acetylglucosamine residue and 19% of the biantennary complex-type sugar chains was bisected.

Abstract
Human thrombospondin, a 450-kDa glycoprotein isolated from platelets and endothelial cells, specifically interacts with osteonectin, a protein of 30 kDa isolated from bovine bones and human platelets. Using ELISA, purified osteonectin binds to solid-phase-adsorbed thrombospondin with a dissociation constant (Kd) of 0.7 nM. Binding of thrombospondin to solid-phase-adsorbed osteonectin was also observed (Kd = 0.86 nM). The interaction of thrombospondin with solid-phase-adsorbed osteonectin was significantly decreased (81% inhibition) when using an excess of fluid-phase osteonectin. Thrombospondin-osteonectin complex formation was calcium-dependent as shown by a 50-80% inhibition in the presence of EDTA. None of the proteins known to interact with thrombospondin (fibrinogen, fibronectin, collagen, plasminogen) had a significant inhibitory effect on thrombospondin-osteonectin complex formation. This selective interaction was confirmed by affinity chromatography. Iodinated osteonectin, previously incubated with purified thrombospondin, specifically bound to an anti-thrombospondin monoclonal antibody (P10) linked to protein-A--Sepharose 4B. Elution of the anti-thrombospondin antibody from protein A allowed the recovery of the thrombospondin-osteonectin complex in the eluate, as judged by SDS/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography. Blotting of purified thrombospondin to osteonectin adsorbed onto nitrocellulose further confirmed complex formation. In addition, when released from thrombin-stimulated platelets, thrombospondin and osteonectin bound to anti-thrombospondin IgG-coated plates indicating that osteonectin was complexed to thrombospondin once the platelet-release reaction has occurred.

Abstract
Structural differences between platelet and endothelial cell thrombospondin (TBSP) were found in two protease-resistant domains (70 and 18 kDa). The 70 kDa fragment is involved in the binding of TBSP to fibrinogen and the 18 kDa fragment in the attachment to various cultured cells. Despite these structural differences, platelet and endothelial cell TBSP bound with the same affinity to fibrinogen and mediated the attachment of smooth muscle cells but not of endothelial cells.

Abstract
The glycoprotein thrombospondin is distributed between the extracellular matrix and the platelet-sequestered pool in the resting state and it undergoes redistribution upon platelet stimulation. It is believed to play a role in matrix structure and in coagulation. We have studied the structural domains of endothelial cell (EC) thrombospondin by use of the serine proteases thrombin, trypsin and chymotrypsin and have characterized the heparin-binding domains of this molecule. For this purpose we used purified thrombospondin synthesized and secreted by bovine aortic endothelial cells grown in the presence of radiolabeled methionine. We find that the susceptibility of EC thrombospondin to proteolysis is five-fold smaller than that of platelet thrombospondin. In the presence of 2 mM Ca ions the molecule is cleaved by 20 U/ml thrombin at a single locus, to yield fragments of 160 kDa and 35 kDa. Trypsin digestion for 5 min at room temperature at an enzyme-to-substrate ratio of 1:20 produces a stable fragment of 140 kDa but not the 30-kDa fragment observed in platelet thrombospondin. Chymotrypsin, under identical conditions to those used for trypsin, cleaves EC thrombospondin into four stable fragments of 160 kDa, 140 kDa, 27 kDa and 18 kDa. Chelation of Ca by EDTA increases susceptibility of the molecule to proteolysis. Under the conditions used a cryptic thrombin-cleavage site, not hitherto observed in platelet thrombospondin, was observed in EC thrombospondin. The location of this site is near a chymotrypsin-susceptible site, which has been observed in the long connecting arm, which is particularly Ca-stabilized. Heparin-binding capacity of EC thrombospondin was observed in at least two separate loci. Both thrombin and chymotrypsin produced small fragments (35 kDa and 27 kDa respectively) which bound to heparin with high affinity, and large fragments (160 kDa for thrombin and 140 kDa for chymotrypsin) which had low affinity. Chelation of Ca substantially decreased the low-affinity binding of the large fragments but not the high-affinity binding of the small fragments. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of the chymotryptic heparin-binding fragments shows that each molecule gave rise to a heterogeneous array of fragments of high molecular mass bound by disulfide bonds, indicating that there is a difference in the rate of cleavage between the three subunits of EC thrombospondin. Trypsin, despite its limited degradation, completely eliminated the heparin-binding capacity of both high and low-affinity loci, in contrast to platelet thrombospondin where the high affinity remains intact.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
