Serine proteinase inhibitors, including plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) and antithrombin, are key regulators of hemostatic processes such as thrombosis and wound healing. Much evidence suggests that PAI-1 can influence such processes, as well as pathological events like tumor metastasis, through its ability to directly regulate binding of blood platelets and cells to extracellular substrata. One way that PAI-1 influences these processes may be mediated through its binding to the plasma protein vitronectin. Binding to PAI-1 results in the incorporation of vitronectin into a higher order complex with a potential for multivalent interactions (Podor, T. J., Shaughnessy, S. G., Blackburn, M. N., and Peterson, C. B. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 275,25402-25410). In this study, evidence is provided to support this concept from studies on the effects of PAI-1-induced multimerization on the interactions of vitronectin with matrix components and cell surface receptors. By monitoring complex formation and stability over time using size-exclusion high performance liquid chromatography, a correlation is made between PAI-1-induced multimerization and enhanced cell/matrix binding properties of vitronectin. This evidence indicates that PAI-1 alters the adhesive functions of vitronectin by converting the protein via the higher order complex to a self-associated, multivalent species that is functionally distinct from the abundant monomeric form found in the circulation.
