The adherence of human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVE) cells to adhesive matrix proteins was examined to determine if cell attachment and spreading were mediated by the glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa complex on endothelial cells. The HUVE cells adhered well to glass slides that had been coated with fibronectin, vitronectin, fibrinogen, or von Willebrand factor but failed to adhere to albumin-coated or to uncoated slides. The HUVE cell attachment and spreading on vitronectin, fibrinogen, and von Willebrand factor were greatly inhibited by a GP IIb-IIIa monoclonal antibody (7E3). In contrast, HUVE cell attachment to fibronectin was not inhibited by 7E3 but was inhibited by a fibronectin-receptor antibody (alpha GP140), which had no effect on cell attachment to the other adhesive proteins. The 7E3 antibody, but not alpha GP140, disrupted HUVE cell monolayers by detaching cells from their naturally occurring extracellular matrix. These data indicate that platelet GP IIb-IIIa-like proteins mediate the adherence of HUVE cells to specific adhesive proteins and to the extracellular matrix.
