Inhibition of vitronectin-mediated haptotaxis and haptoinvasion of MG-63 cells by domain 5 (D5(H)) of human high-molecular-weight kininogen and identification of a minimal amino acid sequence

Biochem Biophys Res Commun. 2001 Nov 9;288(4):975-80. doi: 10.1006/bbrc.2001.5864.

Abstract

We found that human kinin-free high-molecular-weight kininogen (kf-HK) significantly inhibited vitronectin-mediated migration (haptotaxis) and invasive potentiation (haptoinvasion) of osteosarcoma (MG-63) cells but that HK, LK, the common heavy chain of HK and LK, and the light chain (D6(H)) of HK had no inhibitory effect. Recombinant GST-D5(H) (histidine-rich region of HK) obtained from Escherichia coli. (BL21) also inhibited both haptotaxis and haptoinvasion to about 30% of the control level in a dose-dependent manner. These findings suggest that a specific region of D5(H) is responsible for the inhibition of cell haptotaxis and haptoinvasion. Among the seven synthetic peptides covering D5(H), peptide H(479)KHGHGHGKHKNKGK(493) (P-5) inhibited both haptotaxis and haptoinvasion in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that P-5 could possibly be utilized to prevent primary and secondary metastases of tumor cells.
