Transient deformations of leukocytes (WBCs) were studied during their saltation along post-capillary venous endothelium (EC) in mesentery of the rat. During intermittent adhesion of WBCs to EC, prevailing fluid shear stresses, tau wall, resulted in a stepwise loading of the WBC upon attachment with a transient increase in length, L(t), and reduction in height, H(t). Measurements of L(t) and H(t) from frame-by-frame analysis of video recordings were modelled as the simple shear of a standard linear viscoelastic solid to facilitate calculation of the elastic (k1, k2) and viscous (mu) elements with k1 in parallel with serial elements k2 and mu. The magnitude of tau wall was determined from measurements of red cell velocity within the venule. During the spontaneous adhesion of WBCs, a value of cell viscosity (mu) of 45 Poise was determined. Stimulating adhesion by topical application of the chemoattractant FMLP resulted in a 15-fold increase of mu to 668 Poise. Transient deformations during topical application of cytochalesin B to disrupt actin fibers within the WBC, yielded a 40% reduction in k1, compared to an 80% reduction with colchicine which disrupts the microtubule structure. Thus, colchicine treated cells appear to be twice as deformable as cells treated with cytochalesin. During adhesion stimulated by the cytokine Interleukin-1, mu increased 50% without changes in k1 and k2, possibly due to slight activation of the WBC. 相似文献

This study showed that the adherence of human polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) to monolayer cultures of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was increased when the latter were rendered anoxic. This adhesion was greater after 4-5 h than after 8 h of anoxia, but even at 8 h was significantly above the level of adhesion to HUVEC maintained under normoxic conditions for the same period. The changes in adhesion were not dependent on the viability of HUVEC during anoxia. Anoxia-induced adhesion was prevented by addition of cycloheximide (5 micrograms/ml) to the cultures, suggesting that it depended on HUVEC protein synthesis. Enhanced adhesion was also prevented by addition of a monoclonal antibody directed against the cytokine, interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1 alpha). These findings are consistent with a role of endogenous IL-1 alpha as a mediator of the anoxia-induced adhesion of PMN to HUVEC. 相似文献

Comments on techniques for characterizing leukocytes adhered to the aortic endothelium of the rat are given. Alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase positive leukocytes were studied by optical microscopy of en face intima-media preparations. Results indicate 1) 1% paraformaldehyde-2% glutaraldehyde is a better fixative than formalin-calcium or 4% paraformaldehyde with or without 1.5 mM CaCl2; the latter produces distortion of leukocytes, endothelial desquamation and enzymate inhibition, 2) washing the aorta with phosphate-buffered saline for 90 sec prior to fixation-perfusion produces a notable decrease in the number of leukocytes adhered, 3) diazotized parasaniline is better than fast blue RR salt as coupling agent in the esterase reaction, and 4) counterstaining with 1% methyl green for 1 min, before or after the esterase reaction, is not adequate because of limited contrast and the heavy staining of smooth muscle. Counterstaining with Gill's hematoxylin No. 3 for 90 sec is adequate only when done before the esterase reaction. Inhibition of endothelial esterase activity by hematoxylin decreases background, favors contrast of adhered leukocytes and makes it possible to observe nucleus-cytoplasm relations. 相似文献

To assess the hypothesis that gap junctions (GJs) participate on leukocyte-endothelium interactions in the inflammatory response, we compared leukocyte adhesion and transmigration elicited by cytokine stimulation in the presence or absence of GJ blockers in the hamster cheek pouch and also in the cremaster muscle of wild-type (WT) and endothelium-specific connexin 43 (Cx43) null mice (Cx43e(-/-)). In the cheek pouch, topical tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha; 150 ng/ml, 15 min) caused a sustained increment in the number of leukocytes adhered to venular endothelium (LAV) and located at perivenular regions (LPV). Superfusion with the GJ blockers 18-alpha-glycyrrhetinic acid (AGA; 75 microM) or 18-beta-glycyrrhetinic acid (50 microM) abolished the TNF-alpha-induced increase in LAV and LPV; carbenoxolone (75 microM) or oleamide (100 microM) reduced LAV by 50 and 75%, respectively, and LPV to a lesser extent. None of these GJ blockers modified venular diameter, blood flow, or leukocyte rolling. In contrast, glycyrrhizin (75 microM), a non-GJ blocker analog of AGA, was devoid of effect. Interestingly, when AGA was removed 90 min after TNF-alpha stimulation, LAV started to rise at a similar rate as in control. Conversely, application of AGA 90 min after TNF-alpha reduced the number of previously adhered cells. In WT mice, intrascrotal injection of TNF-alpha (0.5 microg/0.3 ml) increased LAV (fourfold) and LPV (threefold) compared with saline-injected controls. In contrast to the observations in WT animals, TNF-alpha stimulation did not increase LAV or LPV in Cx43e(-/-) mice. These results demonstrate an important role for GJ communication in leukocyte adhesion and transmigration during acute inflammation in vivo and further suggest that endothelial Cx43 is key in these processes. 相似文献

To protect the body efficiently from infectious organisms, leukocytes circulate as nonadherent cells in the blood and lymph, and migrate as adherent cells into tissues. Circulating leukocytes in the blood have first to adhere to and then to cross the endothelial lining. CD31/PECAM- 1 is an adhesion molecule expressed by vascular endothelial cells, platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and naive T lymphocytes. It is a transmembrane glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily (IgSF), with six Ig-like homology units mediating leukocyte-endothelial interactions. The adhesive interactions mediated by CD31 are complex and include homophilic (CD31-CD31) or heterophilic (CD31-X) contacts. Soluble, recombinant forms of CD31 allowed us to study the heterophilic interactions in leukocyte adhesion assays. We show that the adhesion molecule alpha v beta 3 integrin is a ligand for CD31. The leukocytes revealed adhesion mediated by the second Ig-like domain of CD31, and this binding was inhibited by alpha v beta 3 integrin-specific antibodies. Moreover alpha v beta 3 was precipitated by recombinant CD31 from cell lysates. These data establish a third IgSF-integrin pair of adhesion molecules, CD31-alpha v beta 3 in addition to VCAM-1, MadCAM-1/alpha 4 integrins, and ICAM/beta 2 integrins, which are major components mediating leukocyte-endothelial adhesion. Identification of a further versatile adhesion pair broadens our current understanding of leukocyte-endothelial interactions and may provide the basis for the treatment of inflammatory disorders and metastasis formation. 相似文献

Caveolae and its structural protein caveolin-1 (Cav-1) are abundant in vascular endothelial cells (ECs). We examined whether caveolae are involved in monocyte adhesion to ECs responding to a synergy of hypercholesterolemia and inflammation. Treating human umbilical vein ECs with cholesterol enhanced endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced monocyte adhesion. Use of isolated caveolae-enriched membranes revealed that cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), including intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), co-localized with Cav-1 in caveolae. LPS upregulated CAMs expression and increased the co-localization. Cholesterol exposure decreased the level of CAMs in the caveolae. Co-immunoprecipitation and confocal microscopy revealed that ICAM-1 interacted with Cav-1. Electron microscopy showed that ICAM-1 was mainly located in caveolae. Cholesterol exposure decreased this interaction and drove ICAM-1 out of caveolae. Knockdown of Cav-1 reduced the synergistic effects of cholesterol and inflammation. In vivo, ICAM-1 and Cav-1 co-localization was lower in the aortic endothelium of ApoE−/− mice than in that of wild-type controls. Cav-1 negatively regulates monocyte adhesion by the co-localization of CAMs in caveolae, which is disturbed by cholesterol. Thus, our study suggests a molecular basis underlying the synergistic effects of hypercholesterolemia and inflammation in atherogenesis. 相似文献

Influence of a high-molecular compound capable of augmenting viscosity, namely: polyethylene oxide Polyox WSR-301, on hemodynamic parameters in rat mesenteric microvessels was investigated. A substantial decrease in the arteriolar hemodynamic resistance caused by the polymer was revealed. Special research has shown that this reaction is not connected with a vasodilatation and, therefore, is caused by a reduction in the "apparent" viscosity of the blood, i.e., it is a consequence of changed properties of the blood flow. 相似文献

We have compared the adhesion of 51Cr-labeled eosinophils and neutrophils to cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cell (EC) monolayers that have been stimulated with IL-1, TNF, or LPS. Each agent stimulated the adhesion to EC of both eosinophils and neutrophils in a similar dose- and time-dependent manner. F(ab')2 fragments of mAb 1.2B6 (anti-endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule (ELAM)-1) and mAb 6.5B5 (anti-intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1) each inhibited partially, and to a similar extent, eosinophil and neutrophil adhesion to EC monolayers prestimulated with TNF (10 ng/ml) for 6 h. Greater inhibition of both eosinophil and neutrophil adhesion was achieved by combining the effects of mAb 1.2B6 with either mAb 6.5B5 or mAb TS1/18 (anti-CD18). These observations indicate that both ELAM-1 and ICAM-1 are involved in the adhesion of eosinophils and neutrophils to EC stimulated with TNF. In order to determine whether these molecules are expressed in vivo during allergen-induced late phase allergic responses in the skin, human skin biopsies were examined at 6 h after Ag or saline challenge with the use of an alkaline phosphatase-staining technique. Both ELAM-1 and ICAM-1 were expressed with greater intensities in Ag-challenged biopsies, suggesting that these molecules may be involved in granulocyte recruitment in vivo. The similarities we have established between mechanisms of eosinophil and neutrophil adhesion to cytokine-stimulated EC suggests that factors other than differential leukocyte-EC adhesion may be responsible for the selective accumulation of eosinophils at sites of allergic inflammation. 相似文献

The adhesion of breast adenocarcinoma cells (MDA-MB-231) to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) was studied in whole blood and under varying flow conditions. This study was done on HUVEC either kept under static conditions or pre-conditioned in flow for 2 hours at a shear stress of 5 or 13 dyn/cm(2). Coverslips coated by HUVEC were placed in a parallel plate perfusion chamber and perfused at a shear rate of 300 or 1500 sec(-1) with heparin-anticoagulated blood containing 111In labelled MDA-MB-231 cells. We report here the optimal conditions for studying the adhesion of MDA-MB-231 to endothelial cells under shear constraints corresponding to those observed into small and medium sized arteries. 相似文献

Cigarette smoke elicits leukocyte adhesion to endothelium in hamsters: Inhibition by CuZn-SOD 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Although cigarette smoking has been identified as a major risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, the underlying pathomechanism is largely unknown. Using a dorsal skinfold chamber model in Syrian golden hamsters for intravital microscopy on striated muscle microcirculation, we investigated whether cigarette smoke (CS) affects the adhesion of circulating leukocytes to the endothelium, a constant feature of early atherogenesis and a hallmark of ischemia-reperfusion injury. Awake hamsters were exposed for 5 min to the mainstream smoke of one cigarette (2R 1 research cigarette), inducing nicotine, cotinine, and carboxyhemoglobin plasma levels comparable to levels found in human smokers. In control animals (n = 7), CS exposure elicited the rolling and subsequent adhesion of fluorescently stained leukocytes to the endothelium of arterioles and postcapillary venules. Leukocyte/endothelium interaction was preceded by an early rise in xanthine oxidase activity and intravascular hemolysis. Leukocyte adhesion and xanthine oxidase (Xo) activation were significantly attenuated in hamsters pretreated with superoxide dismutase (5 mg/kg, 10 min prior to CS, n= 7), suggesting a key role of superoxide in this event. These in vitro results suggest a novel pathomechanism of CS-induced cardiovascular pathology. 相似文献

Elevation of apparent membrane viscosity in ovarian granulosa cells by follicle-stimulating hormone 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Continued exposure of cultured granulosa cells to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) induced: (i) a rise in apparent membrane microviscosity, as reflected by an increase in fluorescence polarization of the lipid-soluble probe, 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5,-hexatriene; and (ii) a progressive decline in the cyclic AMP response to renewed challenge with the same hormone. Both changes were reduced or prevented by pretreatment of the cells with oleic or linoleic acid, agents which reduce membrane viscosity, but not by elaidic or palmitic acid which increase the rigidity of membrane lipids. Other agents that inhibited FSH-induced changes in membrane fluidity (gonadotropin-releasing hormone, actinomycin D and cycloheximide) also prevented desensitization to FSH. Cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP derivatives did not mimic the effects of FSH on apparent membrane viscosity or desensitization. Changes in membrane fluidity are unlikely to be the sole cause of desensitization since (i) pretreatment of the cells with fatty acids that increase lipid viscosity did not induce desensitization to FSH, and (ii) desensitization of granulosa cells to lutropin and prostaglandin E2 by exposure to the homologous hormone was not attended by increased membrane viscosity. The experiments described provide the first example of a hormonally induced increase in the target cell apparent membrane viscosity. 相似文献

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) stimulates the adhesiveness of human umbilical vein endothelial cells for U937 cells and human neutrophils in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The onset of CGRP-induced adhesives of HUVEC was rapid (30 min), independent of protein synthesis, and lasted over 24 h in the continuous presence of the peptide. The stimulatory effect of CGRP was completely blocked by the CGRP antagonist, CGRP(8-37). The present study provides evidence in support of the potential role of sensory nerve-derived neuropeptides in the modulation of leukocyte adhesion to vascular endothelial cells. 相似文献

VCAM-1 and ICAM-1, receptors for leukocyte integrins, are recruited to cell–cell contact sites on the apical membrane of activated endothelial cells. In this study, we show that this recruitment is independent of ligand engagement, actin cytoskeleton anchorage, and heterodimer formation. Instead, VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 are recruited by inclusion within specialized preformed tetraspanin-enriched microdomains, which act as endothelial adhesive platforms (EAPs). Using advanced analytical fluorescence techniques, we have characterized the diffusion properties at the single-molecule level, nanoscale organization, and specific intradomain molecular interactions of EAPs in living primary endothelial cells. This study provides compelling evidence for the existence of EAPs as physical entities at the plasma membrane, distinct from lipid rafts. Scanning electron microscopy of immunogold-labeled samples treated with a specific tetraspanin-blocking peptide identify nanoclustering of VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 within EAPs as a novel mechanism for supramolecular organization that regulates the leukocyte integrin–binding capacity of both endothelial receptors during extravasation. 相似文献

Myosin Is are associated with specific membranes, however, the mechanism for regulating their intracellular localization is unclear. As a first step towards understanding this mechanism, membrane rebinding assays using Dictyostelium myoB were performed. Crude, cytosolic myoB bound to intact, but not to NaOH-treated plasma membranes. In contrast, partially purified myoB binds to both intact and NaOH-treated plasma membranes. Chemical cross-linking of cytosolic myoB yielded several products, whereas none were found with the partially purified myoB. These results suggest a model where proteins regulating the specific binding of myoB to the plasma membrane may exist both in the cytosol and on the plasma membrane. 相似文献

A monoclonal anti-HEBFPP antibody with specificity for lymphocyte surface molecules mediating adhesion to Peyer's patch high endothelium of the rat 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Cell surface molecules involved in lymphocyte adhesion to high endothelial cell venules (HEV) of Peyer's patches (PP) have been studied in the rat by using a mouse monoclonal anti-HEBFPP (1B.2) antibody. We previously showed that rat thoracic duct lymph contains a high endothelial cell binding factor termed HEBFPP, which in vitro blocks lymphocyte binding sites of HEVPP but not HEVLN. Monoclonal 1B.2 antibody was produced by fusing P3U1 myeloma cells with spleen cells of a mouse immunized with this material. Immunoprecipitation studies with 125I surface-labeled rat thoracic duct lymphocytes (TDL) showed that the antibody recognized an 80-kilodalton protein. This antigen was present in the majority of TDL, spleen, LN, and PP cells but was found on few (5 to 10%) thymus and bone marrow cells (indirect immunofluorescence). Treatment of TDL with 1B.2 antibody blocked their ability to bind in vitro to HEVPP; antibody treatment did not interfere with TDL adhesion to HEVLN. Analysis of 1B.2 antigen isolated from lymph and detergent lysates of TDL by antibody-affinity chromatography showed that this material had the capacity to block lymphocyte binding sites of HEVPP but not HEVLN. In contrast, material with such blocking activity was not isolated from detergent lysates of thymocyte, a population deficient in HEV-binding cells. The results indicate that the 1B.2 antigen is a component of the lymphocyte surface recognition structure mediating adhesion to HEVPP and provide further evidence that distinct adhesion molecules of rat TDL mediate interaction with high endothelium of LN and PP. 相似文献

Characterization of the enhanced adhesion of neutrophil leukocytes to thrombin-stimulated endothelial cells. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

We have characterized the mechanisms by which thrombin enhances neutrophil leukocyte (PMN) adhesion to human endothelial cells in vitro. Thrombin rapidly and transiently increased PMN adhesion by an action on the endothelial cells. The transience of the response was due to at least two factors: desensitization of the endothelial cell responsiveness to thrombin in the continued presence of the agonist; and the lability (t1/2 less than 15 min) of the effector molecules expressed by the endothelium. Experiments with exogenous platelet-activating factor (PAF) and with PAF antagonists demonstrated that PAF production, although it may facilitate the enhanced PMN adhesion seen in response to thrombin, is not sufficient to explain the reaction. By using a variety of antibodies directed against cell surface ligands, and comparing adhesion of PMN to endothelium and to protein-coated surfaces, we deduce that several endothelial ligands not previously reported as playing a role in PMN adhesion are involved in these interactions. Of particular interest was the finding that antibodies recognizing two thrombin-regulated endothelial cell surface ligands, GMP-140 and the CD63-related Ag, both inhibited adhesion of PMN to thrombin- or LPS-pretreated endothelium. We conclude that thrombin acts to enhance PMN adhesion to endothelium at least in part by transiently altering the conformation or level of expression of these ligands. 相似文献

The inhibition of platelet adhesion by nitric oxide (NO) and prostacyclin and their mechanism of action was studied. Platelet adhesion to collagen fibrils and endothelial cell matrix was inhibited completely by NO but only partially by prostacyclin. Adhesion of platelets to endothelial cell monolayers was inhibited by bradykinin. This effect of bradykinin was unaffected by aspirin, and was accounted for by the amounts of NO released by the endothelial cells. Inhibition of platelet adhesion by NO and prostacyclin was potentiated by selective inhibitors of cGMP phosphodiesterase, but not of cAMP phosphodiesterase, indicating that elevation of cGMP regulates platelet adhesion. 相似文献
