Human fibroblasts downregulate plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 in cultured human macrovascular and microvascular endothelial cells

JC Zhang, A Fabry, L Paucz, J Wojta and BR Binder

Department of Vascular Biology and Thrombosis Research, University of Vienna, Austria.

We have previously reported that plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) expression in endothelial cells (ECs) can be modulated differently by smooth muscle cells depending on their origin. Human pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (HPASMCs) strongly downregulated PAI-1 expression in ECs. Fibroblasts (FBs) are another cell type that could come in close contact with ECs. Therefore, it was the aim of this study to investigate whether FBs could also influence the fibrinolytic potential of ECs. As in the case of HPASMCs, PAI-1 antigen produced by human umbilical vein ECs (HUVECs) cocultured with human skin FBs (HSFBs) was significantly lower as compared with the sum of PAI-1 secreted by the respective cell types cultured separately. Not only HUVECs but also human skin microvascular ECs (HSMECs) responded in a dose-dependent way to serum-free conditioned media (CM) from HSFBs from one individual donor. Similar results were obtained when CM from HSFBs from four other individual donors were used. PAI-1 mRNA decreased in HUVECs incubated for 6 hours with HSFB-CM to 24% to 55% of control, depending on the preparation of HSFBs used. A significant PAI-1 downregulatory effect was only observed when CM from low-passage HSFBs (up to passage no. 5) was used, whereas no reduction in EC PAI-1 production was observed with CM obtained from HSFBs in passage no. 8. This PAI-1 downregulatory activity present in HSFB-CM was heat-labile and had a molecular mass of approximately 5 kD. When CM from HPASMCs was analyzed in the same way, an almost identical elution profile was found. In conclusion, our data showed that FBs can decrease the expression of PAI-1 in ECs. Such an effect could be operative during wound-healing and at other capillary sites where FBs could render ECs profibrinolytic, thereby facilitating processes requiring an increase in proteolytic activity such as EC migration and proliferation.
