Aortic endothelial cells from normal pigs and pigs with von Willebrand disease have been established in long-term cultures. Both cultures appeared similar in terms of general growth characteristics, morphologic features and ultrastructure. Immunofluorescent staining of these cultures with chicken (or rabbit) antiporcine ristocetin-Willebrand factor sera (or IgG) resulted in extensive perinuclear staining of the cells in both cultures. Additionally, staining of semiconfluent cultures of normal cells for ristocetin-Willebrand factor revealed an extensive meshwork of distinct, immunologically identifiable ristocetin-Willebrand factor-containing filaments between cells. Immunoreactive material was considerably decreased and more diffuse between cells in semiconfluent cultures from affected pigs. Through immunocytochemical staining with peroxidase-coupled antiserum, the filaments (of indeterminate length) were found to have a diameter of approximately 300 A. Finally, washed porcine platelets interacted extensively with scrape-damaged cultures of affected endothelial cells. This interaction of platelets with damaged normal cultures was abolished by pretreatment of the cultures with rabbit antiporcine ristocetin-Willebrand factor IgG.
