TL;DR
The presence of factor-VIII-related antigen in human vascular subendothelium is demonstrated using both an immunofluorescent staining technique and electron microscopy and may have implications in the mechanism of platelet adhesion to deendothelialized blood vessel surfaces.
Abstract
Factor-VIII-related antigen has previously been shown to be synthesized by vascular endothelial cells. Using both an immunofluorescent staining technique and electron microscopy, we have demonstrated the presence of factor-VIII-related antigen in human vascular subendothelium. This finding may have implications in the mechanism of platelet adhesion to deendothelialized blood vessel surfaces.

The distribution of fibronectin was distinct from that of collagen and elastic fibers, but was very similar to reticulin, as demonstrated by conventional histological staining, which indicates that fibronECTin is a major component of connective tissue matrix.

The demonstration of fluorescence within the cytoplasm of endothelial cells suggests that these cells synthesize proteins that have AHF antigens, which is in line with previous reports on antihemophilic factor.

Biopsy specimens of superficial veins were obtained from 5 patients with von Willebrand's disease and 3 patients with haemophilia A and studied for factor VIII antigen with the aid of a direct immunofluorescent technique and it is assumed that the vonWillebrand factor - factor VIII protein exerts an effect on primary haemostasis also locally in the vessel wall.
