Endothelial cells (ECs), as a tumor niche cell, generate and secrete Von Willebrand factor (VWF) that is linked to osteosarcoma (OS) progression. However, the role and regulatory mechanisms of VWF that underpin OS progression remain unclear. Here, using a coculture system ex vivo, we showed that ECs promoted the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process in OS cells via enhanced VWF secretion. VWF secreted by ECs directly contributed to OS EMT and metastasis by activating NF-kappa B signaling. In addition, OS cells exerted a feedback effect on ECs to promote VWF release via activation of phospholipase D 1 signaling, through which enhanced VWF secretion results in further tumor deterioration. To conclude, ECs served as a modulator and an effector of OS, accelerating OS exacerbation by VWF release.
