Serum-free culture medium conditioned by human diploid fibroblast cells stimulated prostacyclin production by cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells. Gel filtration chromatography using Sephacryl S-100HR revealed at least three peaks of prostacyclin-stimulating activity. This factor was relatively heat-stable, acid-labile, trypsin-sensitive and bound to heparin Sepharose CL-6B. This factor was completely inhibited by indomethacin.
