Tumor-associated prognostic factors of the plasminogen activator family: determination and clinical value of u-PA, t-PA, PAI-1, and PAI-2

Proteolytic factors belonging t the plasminogen activator family (plasmin, u-PA, t-PA, u-PAR, PAI-1, and PAI-2), which usually are involved in blood clotting and degradation of blood clots, are also present in healthy and diseased tissue of the kidney, lung, liver, gastro-intestinal tract, breast, prostate, ovary, and brain. These factors are engaged in brain development, angiogenesis and vascular invasion, wound healing as well as in placenta development and embryogenesis. Plasminogen activators u-PA and t-PA, their inhibitors PAI-1 and PAI-2, and the u-PA-receptor (u-PAR, CD87) are often elevated in solid malignant tumour tissues compared to their normal counterparts. In breast cancer patients, an elevated tumour tissue extract antigen content of u-PA, PAI-1, and u-PAR is associated with increased tumour aggressiveness and poor prognosis; in contrary, an elevated content of t-PA and PAI-2 indicates a favourable prognosis. For clinical relevant determination of these proteolytic factors in tumour tissue extracts, only enzymo-immunometric tests (ELISA) are recommended. Enzymometric and enzymographic tests are actually conducted only in an experimental, preclinical context.     

Effect of cyclic AMP and phorbol ester on PAI-2 synthesis in a leukemic cell line PL-21 and on u-PA secretion in a pre-B cell lymphoma cell line RC-K8]

We investigated the effect of phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), dexamethasone (Dex) and reagents which raise intracellular cyclic AMP, on the production of plasminogen activator inhibitor type-2 (PAI-2) in human promyelocytic leukemia cell line, PL-21 and on the production of urinary type plasminogen activator (u-PA) in human pre-B cell lymphoma cell line, RC-K8. Cells were cultured in fetal bovine serum free RPMI-1640 containing the test-reagents for 48 hours. PAI-2 and u-PA antigens were measured by ELISA kits. PMA, an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), markedly increased both PAI-2 and u-PA production in each cell line. On the other hand, cAMP increased PAI-2 production in PL-21 cells, but decreased u-PA synthesis in RC-K8 cells. Similar to cAMP, Dex also increased PAI-2 production but decreased u-PA production in RC-K8 cells. Moreover, PMA and cAMP synergistically increased the PAI-2 production. This was verified by Western blot, using a monoclonal antibody against the PAI-2. These two cell lines are, therefore, useful for clarifying the role of A kinase and C kinase on PAI-2 and u-PA synthesis in human hemopoietic cells.     

The effect of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system use on menstrual blood loss and the hemostatic, fibrinolytic/inhibitor systems in women with menorrhagia

BACKGROUND: Menorrhagia is known to be associated with uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, pelvic infections, endometrial polyps and clotting defects. A viable alternative therapy to hysterectomy should alleviate heavy menstrual blood flow and consequently improve the quality-of-life measures in women presenting with menorrhagia. The levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) ranks higher than medical treatments in terms of efficacy, comparable improvements in quality of life and psychological well-being. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to determine the effects of 6 months of LNG-IUS use on menstrual blood loss and the hemostatic, fibrinolytic/inhibitor systems in blood and the endometrium in women with menorrhagia with known pathologic causes. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Samples from 41 women were analyzed. Hemoglobin, hematocrit, thrombelastography, tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA), urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA), u-PA receptor (u-PAR), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1/2 (PAI-1/2), D-dimer and von Willebrand factor (VWF) were determined, and t-PA, u-PA and PAI-1/2 were also determined in endometrial tissue extracts. Results: Menorrhagia was reduced in 89% of women by 3 months; by 6 months all women had no menorrhagia, and 39% of women had become amenorrhoeic. Hemoglobin and hematocrit levels showed improvement, and reached normal reference levels by 6 months. There were no systemic changes in the fibrinolytic/inhibitor systems and VWF, except for a decreased u-PAR level. However, in the endometrium, significant elevations in PAI-1/2 together with u-PAR levels were seen at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS: The slow levonorgestrel-release intrauterine device use results in high expression of fibrinolytic inhibitors (PAI-1/2) and upregulated u-PAR expression in the endometrium. Systemic hemostasis was not significantly altered. The study demonstrated that LNG-IUS is highly effective in the treatment of menorrhagia with known pathologic causes.     

Effect of hyperthermia on the viability and the fibrinolytic potential of human cancer cell lines

The effects of heat treatment on the viability and fibrinolytic potential of four cultured human carcinoma cell lines, fibrosarcoma cells (HT-1080), lung adenocarcinoma cells with highly metastatic potential (HAL-8), melanoma cells (Bowes) and osteosarcoma cells (NY), determined by measuring their levels of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) and its specific receptor (u-PAR), were investigated by comparing them with those of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). HUVECs incubated at 43 degrees C for 120 min exhibited no decrease in viability but exhibited an increase in both u-PA and u-PAR. HT-1080 and HAL-8 showed a moderately high heat-resistance (viability, 60-90%) that correlated with the reduction of u-PAR but not u-PA. On the other hand, Bowes and NY cells, with poor heat-resistance (viability, 20-50%), exhibited stronger cell-associated u-PA activity when they survived at 43 degrees C for 120 min. Since the u-PA/u-PAR system is directly involved in the invasiveness and metastatic potential of carcinoma cells, hyperthermia would alter the biological activity of these carcinoma cells.

Fibroblast growth factor-2 mediates Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor-induced angiogenesis in coronary endothelium

The beneficial effect exerted by angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) on vascular endothelium has been attributed to restoration of endothelial cell survival properties and improvement of angiogenesis. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 is an angiogenic factor for the microvascular endothelium, which tonically promotes endothelial cell growth and survival through an autocrine/paracrine mechanism. Here, we formulate the hypothesis that FGF-2 might contribute to the prosurvival/proangiogenic effect of ACEI. We investigated zofenoprilat and, in selected experiments, lisinopril, as representatives of ACEI. These compounds induced formation of pseudocapillaries in vessel fragments isolated from porcine coronary and human umbilical arteries by increasing endothelial cell growth up to 5-fold. Angiogenesis was abolished by inhibitors of nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) pathway and by anti-FGF-2 antibodies. Consistently, in cultured coronary endothelial cells (CVECs), ACEI up-regulated endothelial NOS (eNOS) and FGF-2 and induced mitogen-activated protein kinase extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 activation. The overexpression of eNOS/FGF-2 produced, at the functional level, enhanced cell proliferation and migration, the latter effect being dose-dependent and maximal at 0.1 microM zofenoprilat. The importance of FGF-2 for the acquisition of the angiogenic phenotype elicited by ACEI was clearly demonstrated by the impairment of endothelial functions following transfection of CVECs with small interference RNA for FGF-2. Moreover, FGF-2 silencing greatly affected the nuclear translocation of the FGF receptor (FGFR)-1, highlighting the autocrine mode of action of FGF-2. At the endothelial membrane level, zofenoprilat appeared to activate the bradykinin B1 receptor, a known stimulant of FGF-2 expression. In conclusion, we show that ACEI exert protective/proangiogenic effects in microvascular coronary endothelial cells by activating the endogenous FGF-2/FGFR-1 system.

Systemic administration of anti-urokinase plasminogen activator receptor monoclonal antibodies induces hepatic fibrin deposition in tissue-type plasminogen activator deficient mice

BACKGROUND: Degradation of extracellular matrix proteins, such as fibrin, is pivotal to tumor invasion. Inhibition of the interaction between urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA) and its receptor (u-PAR), and hence pro-u-PA activation, is an attractive approach to anti-invasive cancer therapy. A number of inhibitors exist for the human system, but because of species specificity none of these are efficient in mice. We have recently generated an inhibitory monoclonal antibody (mAb) against mouse u-PAR (mR1) by immunization of u-PAR-deficient mice. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effect of mR1 in vivo in a physiological setting sensitive to deregulated fibrinolysis, we have administered mR1 systemically and quantitated the effect on liver fibrin accumulation. METHODS: Wild-type and tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) deficient mice were administered with mR1, or control antibody, during 6 weeks. Thereafter, the livers were retrieved and the amount of liver fibrin measured by unbiased morphometrical analysis of immunofluorescence signal. RESULTS: Systemic administration of mR1 caused significantly increased fibrin signal in anti-u-PAR treated t-PA-deficient mice compared to mock-treated, which mimics the phenotype of u-PAR;t-PA double-deficient mice. Fibrin and fibronectin accumulated within the sinusoidal space and was infiltrated by inflammatory cells. Analysis of small and rare hepatic fibrin plaques observed in t-PA-deficient mice showed infiltrating macrophages that, contrary to surrounding Kuppfer cells, expressed u-PAR. CONCLUSION: We show that u-PAR-expressing macrophages are involved in cell-mediated fibrinolysis of liver fibrin deposits, and that the antimouse-u-PAR mAb is effective in vivo and thus suited for studies of the effect of targeting the u-PA/u-PAR interaction in mouse cancer models.     

FGF-2 but not FGF-1 binds fibrin and supports prolonged endothelial cell growth

Summary.  Endothelial cell viability and growth are dependent on both polypeptide growth factors, and integrin-mediated matrix interactions. We have now examined the ability of fibrin-binding and non-binding growth factors to support long-term endothelial cell growth in the presence or absence of the soluble form. Endothelial cells were cultured on a fibrin surface, with or without FGF-1 or FGF-2, and proliferation was determined by ³H-thymidine incorporation. Cells cultured on fibrin with no growth factor showed minimal proliferation up to 96 h. In contrast, when FGF-2 was incorporated into fibrin, proliferation was increased 6.5 ± 0.6-fold, equal to growth on a fibrin surface with FGF-2 continually present in the medium. Thymidine incorporation was similar when cells were cultured on a fibrin surface that had been incubated with FGF-2 and then the growth factor removed (8.6 ± 0.5-fold). In contrast to results with FGF-2, a surface of fibrin exposed to FGF-1 supported minimal growth, whereas growth was comparable to either FGF-1 or FGF-2 present in the medium. Comparable results were observed when proliferation was quantitated by cell counting at times up to 48 h. Binding studies demonstrated no high-affinity interaction of FGF-1 with fibrinogen or fibrin. We conclude that FGF-2 bound to fibrin supports prolonged endothelial cell growth as well as soluble FGF-2, whereas FGF-1 does not bind to fibrin and can support endothelial cell growth only if continually present in soluble form. Fibrin may serve as a matrix reservoir for FGF-2 to support cell growth at sites of injury or thrombosis.     

Plasmic degradation modulates activity of fibrinogen-bound fibroblast growth factor-2

Summary. Fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF‐2) binds to fibrin(ogen) with high affinity, and fibrinogen potentiates FGF‐2‐stimulated proliferation of endothelial cells. Because plasmin degrades fibrin(ogen) physiologically and could liberate growth factor from fibrin deposits or alter its activity, we have now investigated the effect of plasmic degradation on the activity of fibrin(ogen)‐bound FGF‐2. Fibrinogen with bound FGF‐2 was incubated with plasmin, the products characterized by SDS–PAGE, and the proliferative activity determined by ³H‐thymidine incorporation into endothelial cells. Before plasmin exposure, proliferation was increased 3.7 ± 0.6‐fold with fibrinogen‐bound FGF‐2 compared with medium alone (P < 0.005). Plasmic degradation resulted in progressive decrease in the proliferative capacity, with the 60‐min digest showing predominantly fragment D1 and E and ³H‐thymidine uptake of only 1.2 ± 0.2‐fold, significantly less than the activity of an equal concentration of free FGF‐2 (P < 0.02). However, further degradation increased activity, and proliferation with a 90‐min digest increased to 2.6 ± 0.5‐fold, significantly greater than the 60‐min digest (P < 0.02). Plasmic degradation in the presence of 10 mm calcium chloride prevented degradation of D1 to D2 and D3, and the activity did not increase with extended degradation. Immunoprecipitation of the digests with antifibrinogen antibody showed 70 ± 8% of fibrinogen‐bound FGF‐2 in the presence of calcium but only 15 ± 4% in its absence, indicating that cleavage of D1 to D2 and D3 is critical in binding. Fragment D1 and D2, but not D3, bound to a column containing immobilized FGF‐2, indicating that a binding site is lost upon degradation to D3. The results demonstrate that plasmic degradation of fibrinogen modulates the activity and binding of FGF‐2 that involves a site near the carboxyl terminus of the γ chain.     

Delivery of FGF-2 but not VEGF by encapsulated genetically engineered myoblasts improves survival and vascularization in a model of acute skin flap ischemia

Stimulating angiogenesis by gene transfer approaches offers the hope of treating tissue ischemia which is untreatable by currently practiced techniques of vessel grafting and bypass surgery. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) are potent angiogenic molecules, making them ideal candidates for novel gene transfer protocols designed to promote new blood vessel growth. In this study, an ex vivo gene therapy approach utilizing cell encapsulation was employed to deliver VEGF and FGF-2 in a continuous and localized manner. C(2)C(12) myoblasts were genetically engineered to secrete VEGF(121), VEGF(165) and FGF-2. These cell lines were encapsulated in hollow microporous polymer membranes for transplantation in vivo. Therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in a model of acute skin flap ischemia. Capsules were positioned under the distal, ischemic region of the flap. Control flaps showed 50% necrosis at 1 week. Capsules releasing either form of VEGF had no effect on flap survival, but induced a modest increase in distal vascular supply. Delivery of FGF-2 significantly improved flap survival, reducing necrosis to 34.2% (P < 0.001). Flap vascularization was significantly increased by FGF-2 (P < 0.01), with numerous vessels, many of which had a large lumen diameter, growing in the proximity of the implanted capsules. These results demonstrate that FGF-2, delivered from encapsulated cells, is more efficacious than either VEGF(121) or VEGF(165) in treating acute skin ischemia and improving skin flap survival. Furthermore, these data attest to the applicability of cell encapsulation for the delivery of angiogenic factors for the treatment and prevention of tissue ischemia.     

Generation and characterization of urokinase receptor-deficient mice.

Mice homozygously deficient for the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) receptor (u-PAR-1-) were generated by homologous recombination in D3, embryonic stem cells. The genomic sequences comprising exon 2 through 5 of the u-PAR gene were replaced by the neomycin resistance gene, resulting in inactivation of both u-PAR splice variants. The inactivated u-PAR allele was transmitted via mendelian inheritance, and fertility. Inactivation of u-PAR was confirmed by the absence of binding of rabbit anti-murine u-PAR or of an aminoterminal fragment of murine u-PA (mu-PA.1-48) to u-PAR-1- embryonic fibroblasts and macrophages. u-PAR-1- mice displayed normal lysis of a murine plasma clot injected via the jugular vein. Invasion of macrophages into the peritoneal cavity after thioglycollate stimulation was similar in u-PAR-1- and u-PAR-1- mice. u-PAR-1- peritoneal macrophages had a threefold decreased initial rate of u-PA-mediated plasminogen activation in vitro but degraded extracellular matrix proteins in vitro as efficiently as u-PAR-1- macrophages.     

Adenovirus-mediated fibroblast growth factor 1 expression in the lung induces epithelial cell proliferation: consequences to hyperoxic lung injury in rats

High concentrations of oxygen can induce pulmonary toxicity and cause injury to alveolar epithelial and endothelial cells. The present study was performed to determine whether the potent epithelial and endothelial fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF-1) protected against hyperoxia-induced lung injury. Recombinant adenovirus carrying the gene encoding human secreted FGF-1 (Ad. FGF1) increased the proliferation of lung epithelial cells in vitro. Ad.FGF1 or control vector with an empty expression cassette (Ad.V152) was administered intratracheally to Wistar rats. With Ad.FGF1 (10(9), 5 x 10(9), 10(10), or 5 x 10(10) viral particles [VP]), FGF-1 protein was found in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid 4 days postinfection at levels proportional to the viral dose and was detected in plasma after doses of 10(10) VP or more were administered. Histological examination of the lungs showed intense proliferation and apoptosis of alveolar and bronchial epithelial cells, with few inflammatory cells. The alveolar architecture returned to normal within 17 days. Rats pretreated with Ad.FGF1 (10(9) or 5 x 10(9) VP) 2 days before exposure to hyperoxia (95% O2) survived, whereas rats pretreated with Ad.V152 died within 3 days. In conclusion, adenovirus-mediated FGF-1 overexpression in the lungs causes epithelial cell proliferation and has beneficial effects in hyperoxic lung injury.
