Abstract

Thrombospondin (TSP)-1 and TSP-2 share similar structures and functions, including a remarkable antiangiogenic activity. We have previously demonstrated that a mechanism of the antiangiogenic activity of TSP-1 is the interaction of its type III repeats domain with fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF2), affecting the growth factor bioavailability and angiogenic activity. Since the type III repeats domain is conserved in TSP-2, this study aimed at investigating whether also TSP-2 retained the ability to interact with FGF2. The FGF2 binding properties of TSP-1 and TSP-2 and their recombinant domains were analyzed by solid-phase binding and surface plasmon resonance assays. TSP-2 bound FGF2 with high affinity (Kd = 1.3 nM). TSP-2/FGF2 binding was inhibited by calcium and heparin. The FGF2-binding domain of TSP-2 was located in the type III repeats and the minimal interacting sequence was identified as the GVTDEKD peptide in repeat 3C, corresponding to KIPDDRD, the active sequence of TSP-1. A second putative FGF2 binding sequence was also identified in repeat 11C of both TSPs. Computational docking analysis predicted that both the TSP-2 and TSP-1-derived heptapeptides interacted with FGF2 with comparable binding properties. Accordingly, small molecules based on the TSP-1 active sequence blocked TSP-2/FGF2 interaction. Binding of TSP-2 to FGF2 impaired the growth factor ability to interact with its cellular receptors, since TSP-2-derived fragments prevented the binding of FGF2 to both heparin (used as a structural analog of heparan sulfate proteoglycans) and FGFR-1. These findings identify TSP-2 as a new FGF2 ligand that shares with TSP-1 the same molecular requirements for interaction with the growth factor and a comparable capacity to block FGF2 interaction with proangiogenic receptors. These features likely contribute to TSP-2 antiangiogenic and antineoplastic activity, providing the rationale for future therapeutic applications.
