Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell-derived, Gla-containing Growth-potentiating Factor for Ca-mobilizing Growth Factors

(Received for publication, November 18, 1994; and in revised form, January 3, 1995)

Proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) is triggered by two types of growth factors. One activates tyrosine kinase-type receptors and the other activates G-protein-coupled receptors. We found that a conditioned medium of rat VSMC contained a growth-potentiating activity for the latter type of growth factor, and we purified a 70-kDa growth-potentiating factor (GPF) from the conditioned medium. Analyses of GPF and its cDNA revealed GPF to be a -carboxyglutamic acid-containing protein encoded by a growth arrest-specific gene, gas6, which related to protein S. GPF specifically potentiated cell proliferation mediated by Ca-mobilizing receptors. The presence of a specific binding site suggests that the effect of GPF is mediated by a receptor. Thus, GPF may be a new type of extracellular factor regulating VSMC proliferation.
