Platelet-derived growth factor in chemotactic for fibroblasts
Chemotaxis assays in modified Boyden chambers were used to detect fibroblast chemoattractants in materials released from early-stage inflammatory cells, namely, mast cells, platelets, and neutrophils. Strong attractant activity was found in substances released from platelets. This activity was accounted for mainly by the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), which is released from the platelet...

متن کاملPolarized secretion of a platelet-derived growth factor-like chemotactic factor by endothelial cells in vitro
Cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells secrete a potent migration-stimulating factor for vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and adventitial fibroblasts. Vascular pericytes are 20-fold less responsive, and endothelial cells themselves do not respond at all. Checkerboard analysis of SMC migration in a micro-chemotaxis chamber assay shows that the factor is chemotactic. Chemotactic activity for...
متن کاملPotentiation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β signaling mediated by integrin-associated MFG-E8.
OBJECTIVE Pericytes/pericyte precursors produce milk fat globule-associated protein with epidermal growth factor and factor VIII-like domains (MFG-E8) in vivo, and this α(v) integrin ligand enhances angiogenesis in tumors and in oxygen-induced retinopathy in mice. Inhibition of MFG-E8 production or function attenuates platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-induced migration of pericyte/per...
متن کاملDissociation of the chemotactic and mitogenic activities of platelet- derived growth factor by human neutrophil elastase
Because platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) may be released at sites where neutrophil proteinases may also be released, we examined the effects of neutrophil elastase and cathepsin G upon the chemotactic and mitogenic activities of PDGF. Elastase abolished the chemotactic activity of PDGF for fibroblasts but had no effect on its chemotactic activity for monocytes, or on its mitogenic activity...
