Genetic linkage analysis was performed between the low expression phenotype of peripheral CD4+ T cells and the thid (T-helper immunodeficiency) phenotype using (BN x LEC)F1 x LEC backcross progenies. In contrast to a previous result using a thid congenic strain that the low expression phenotype of CD62L was not correlated with the thid phenotype, our result in this study indicated that the low expression phenotype of CD62L was genetically linked with the thid phenotype. The discrepancy between the previous and present results may be due to the source of animals, congenic strain versus backcross progenies. It is suggested by this study that the thid locus controls the expression level of CD62L in peripheral CD4+ T cells. 相似文献

Leukocyte urokinase plasminogen activator receptors (uPARs) cluster at adhesion interfaces and at migratory fronts where they participate in adhesion, chemotaxis, and proteolysis. uPAR aggregation triggers activation signaling even though this glycolipid-anchored protein must associate with membrane-spanning proteins to access the cell interior. This study demonstrates a novel partnership between uPAR and L-selectin in human polymorphonuclear neutrophils. Fluorescence resonance energy transfer demonstrated a direct physical association between uPAR and L-selectin. To examine the role of L-selectin in uPAR-mediated signaling, uPAR was cross-linked and intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations were measured by spectrofluorometry. A mAb reactive against the carbohydrate binding domain (CBD) of L-selectin substantially inhibited uPAR-mediated Ca(2+) mobilization, whereas mAbs against the beta(2) integrin complement receptor 3 (CR3), another uPAR-binding adhesion protein, had no effect. Similarly, fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide that binds to L-selectin CBD, inhibited the Ca(2+) signal. We conclude that uPAR associates with the CBD region of L-selectin to form a functional signaling complex. 相似文献

Summary We have examined the topographical distribution of L-selectin on surface membrane domains of human lymphocytes and murine L1-2 cells transfected to express human L-selectin. L-selectin was immunolocalized using murine monoclonal DREG 200 Fab antibody and a 12 nm colloidal gold-conjugated secondary antibody. Cell surface morphology and surface distribution of gold-labelled L-selectin were visualized using backscatter electron images obtained by high-resolution, field emission scanning electron microscopy. The topographical morphologies of lymphocytes of both types were complex. The surface of human lymphocytes was composed of both microvilli and ruffles; that of the murine cells was composed of long microvilli and few, if any, ruffles. L-selectin on human lymphocytes was observed primarily as focal clusters on the apical surfaces of ruffles and microvilli. Similarly, on the transfected murine cells, L-selectin was detected predominantly on the apical surface of microvilli. We conclude that L-selectin has a common spatial distribution and clustered organization on all leukocytes examined to-date, and that these features of receptor expression likely facilitate rolling of circulating leukocytes on the endothelial surface. 相似文献

Cutting edge: L-selectin (CD62L) expression distinguishes small resting memory CD4+ T cells that preferentially respond to recall antigen 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Naive CD4+ T cells use L-selectin (CD62L) expression to facilitate immune surveillance. However, the reasons for its expression on a subset of memory CD4+ T cells are unknown. We show that memory CD4+ T cells expressing CD62L were smaller, proliferated well in response to tetanus toxoid, had longer telomeres, and expressed genes and proteins consistent with immune surveillance function. Conversely, memory CD4+ T cells lacking CD62L expression were larger, proliferated poorly in response to tetanus toxoid, had shorter telomeres, and expressed genes and proteins consistent with effector function. These findings suggest that CD62L expression facilitates immune surveillance by programming CD4+ T cell blood and lymph node recirculation, irrespective of naive or memory CD4+ T cell phenotype. 相似文献

CD62L/L-selectin is a marker found on naïve T cells and further distinguishes central memory (Tcm, CD62L+) from effector memory (Tem, CD62L−) T cells. The regulation of CD62L plays a pivotal role in controlling the traffic of T lymphocytes to and from peripheral lymph nodes. CD62L is shed from the cell membrane following T cell activation, however, the physiological significance of this event remains to be elucidated. In this study, we utilized in vitro generated anti-tumor antigen T cells and melanoma lines as a model to evaluate the dynamics of CD62L shedding and expression of CD107a as a marker of lytic activity. Upon encounter, with matched tumor lines, antigen reactive T cells rapidly lose CD62L expression and this was associated with the acquisition of CD107a. By CD62L ELISA, we confirmed that this transition was mediated by the shedding of CD62L when T cells encountered specific tumor antigen. The introduction of a shedding resistant mutant of CD62L into the tumor antigen-reactive T cell line JKF6 impaired CD107a acquisition following antigen recognition and this was correlated with decreased lytic activity as measured by 51Cr release assays. The linkage of the shedding of CD62L from the surface of anti-tumor T cells and acquisition of lytic activity, suggests a new function for CD62L in T cell effector functions and anti-tumor activity. 相似文献

CD62L (L-selectin) down-regulation does not affect memory T cell distribution but failure to shed compromises anti-viral immunity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The down-regulation of CD62L that accompanies T lymphocyte activation is thought to redirect cells away from lymph nodes to sites of infection. In this study, CD62L was maintained on Ag-activated T cells and their distribution, and ability to clear pathogen from peripheral sites determined. CD62L was down-regulated on Ag-specific CD8 T cells in lungs of C57BL/6 mice but maintained in CD62L transgenic mice at day 8 after influenza infection. However, the numbers of influenza-specific CD8 T cells recruited were similar in CD62L transgenic and C57BL/6 mice. Memory CD8 T cell numbers in the lungs and noninvolved organs 100 days after primary infection were similar in CD62L transgenic and C57BL/6 mice, despite differing CD62L expression. Transgenic mice expressing wild-type CD62L cleared a recombinant vaccinia virus expressing an influenza-derived CD8 T cell epitope as efficiently as C57BL/6 mice. However, transgenic mice expressing a protease resistant mutant of CD62L showed significantly delayed viral clearance, despite normal CTL generation and the presence of CD107a and IFN-gamma expressing influenza-specific CD8 T cells. These results demonstrate that CD62L down-regulation is not required for CD8 memory cells to home to sites of infection. However, their ability to clear virus is significantly compromised if CD62L shedding is abrogated. 相似文献

Receptors such as CD62L and CD11b/CD18, are transmembrane glycoproteins which regulate leukocyte adhesive phenotype. Flow cytometry (FCM) makes it possible to assess a characterization of the cell activation level by receptor quantifying, but that technique does not integrate other factors of adherence regulation, such as spatial distribution and molecular conformation. Our study consisted in exploring the main adherence receptors on Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils (PMN) that were simultaneously analyzed by FCM and Conventional Optical Scanning Microscopy (COSM). FCM analysis showed that TNFalpha induce a decrease in CD62L expression and an increase in beta2 integrins. COSM analysis distinguished three stages of cellular distribution of CD11b/CD18 within resting PMN: most of them (about 80%) had homogeneous distribution (heterogeneous spots distributed over the entire cell surface), for 10-15% of the cells, there was a crown distribution around the widest cell diameter and in less that 10% of them receptor distribution was polarized. CD62L was in the form of heterogeneous spots distributed in a circle on the surface on non-stimulated PMN. PMN stimulation by TNFalpha was associated to a randomized clustering involving both selectin and beta2 integrin. Three-dimensional analysis elicited data not shown by quantitative cytometry. For a single averaged value of the density determined by FMC, various spatial distributions of adherence receptors are found on the surface of non-stimulated PMN. The characterization of the leukocyte adhesive phenotype has to integrate adherence receptors density as well as their spatial distribution. 相似文献

Reduced expression of CD62L can identify tumor-specific T cells in lymph nodes draining murine tumors. Here, we examined whether this strategy could isolate tumor-specific T cells from vaccinated patients. Tumor vaccine-draining lymph node (TVDLN) T cells of seven patients were separated into populations with reduced (CD62LLow) or high levels of CD62L (CD62LHigh). Effector T cells generated from CD62LLow cells maintained or enriched the autologous tumor-specific type 1 cytokine response compared to unseparated TVDLN T cells in four of four patients showing tumor-specific cytokine secretion. Interestingly, effector T cells generated from CD62LLow or CD62LHigh TVDLN were polarized towards a dominant type 1 or type 2 cytokine profile, respectively. For CD62LLow T cells the type 1 cytokine profile appeared determined prior to culture. Since a tumor-specific type 1 cytokine profile appears critical for mediating anti-tumor activity in vivo, this approach might be used to isolate T cells for adoptive immunotherapy. 相似文献

The adhesion molecule L-selectin is cleaved rapidly from the surface of activated leukocytes by tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme, a cell surface metalloprotease, and also undergoes slower constitutive shedding in unactivated cells. The structural features that render it susceptible to shedding are poorly understood. We therefore analyzed the shedding of a series of mutant and chimeric L-selectin molecules. Although murine L-selectin is cleaved at a specific location in the juxtamembrane region 11 amino acids distal to the cell membrane, this cleavage has little sequence specificity. However, proline substitution at the P2' or P3' position or deletion of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) domain completely blocks the rapid phorbol ester-induced cleavage, but does not affect the slower basal proteolytic shedding. Insertion of the 15-residue membrane-proximal region (MPR) of L-selectin into the heterologous protein B7.2 results in a molecule that undergoes constitutive proteolytic turnover. In contrast, insertion of both the EGF domain and the MPR confers susceptibility to both slow constitutive shedding and the rapid proteolytic cleavage induced by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. These results demonstrate that constitutive and induced L-selectin cleavage are separable processes and that the rapid phorbol ester-induced shedding requires the presence of the EGF domain, a sequence that is remote from the cleavage site. 相似文献

Adoptive immunotherapy of advanced tumors with CD62 L-selectin(low) tumor-sensitized T lymphocytes following ex vivo hyperexpansion 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLN) contain sensitized T cells with the phenotype CD62 L-selectin(low) (CD62L(low)) that can be activated ex vivo with anti-CD3 mAb and IL-2 to acquire potent dose-dependent effector function manifested upon adoptive transfer to secondary tumor-bearing hosts. In this study advanced tumor models were used as a stringent comparison of efficacy for the CD62L(low) subset, comprising 5-7% of the TDLN cells, vs the total population of TDLN cells following culture in high dose IL-2 (100 U/ml). During the 9-day activation period the total number of CD8+ T cells increased 1500-fold, with equivalent proliferation in the CD62L(low) vs the total TDLN cell cultures. Adoptive transfer of activated CD62L(low) cells eliminated 14-day pulmonary metastases and cured 10-day s.c. tumors, whereas transfer of maximally tolerated numbers of total TDLN cells was not therapeutic. Despite their propagation in a high concentration of IL-2, the hyperexpanded CD62L(low) subset of TDLN cells functioned in vivo without exogenous IL-2, and CD8+ T cells demonstrated relative helper independence. Moreover, the anti-tumor response was specific for the sensitizing tumor, and long term memory was established. The facile enrichment of tumor-reactive TDLN T cells, based on the CD62L(low) phenotype, circumvents the need for prior knowledge of the relevant tumor Ags. Coupling the isolation of pre-effector T cells with rapid ex vivo expansion to >3 logs could overcome some of the shortcomings of active immunotherapy or in vivo cytokine treatment, where selective robust expansion of effector cells has been difficult to achieve. 相似文献

Objective
Kawasaki disease (KD) is a severe inflammatory disease that occurs in childhood. Recently, the initial corticosteroid therapy for KD has been reconsidered because its efficacy is controversial. The aim of this study was to evaluate the dynamic change in endogenous glucocorticoid levels and their relation with 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11β-HSD) activity in the acute phase of KD.Study design
Sixteen KD patients were investigated. Cortisol and cortisone levels, the cortisol/cortisone ratio and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were measured on admission, before the first intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy and convalescence.Results
The 16 patients were divided into two groups. Group A included patients who received the first IVIG on admission and blood samples were collected before the first IVIG and convalescence. Group B included patients whose blood samples were collected at three different time points (on admission, before the first IVIG, and convalescence). CRP and cortisol levels and the cortisol/cortisol ratio were markedly higher before the first IVIG than those of convalescence in all patients except in one patient. In Group B patients, both serum cortisol levels and the cortisol/cortisone ratio on admission were significantly increased compared with those before the first IVIG (cortisol: p < 0.005, cortisol/cortisone: p < 0.001).Conclusions
Decreases in cortisol levels and the cortisol/cortisone ratio before the first IVIG may be explained by a reduction in adrenal secretion and/or local glucocorticoid action through 11β-HSD activity. These findings suggest that exogenous glucocorticoid treatment in combination with the first IVIG at the acute stage may play a synergetic role in KD. 相似文献14.

Polymorphonuclear granulocyte expression of CD11a/CD18, CD11b/CD18 and L-selectin in normal individuals 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Abstract In this study direct immunofluorescence and flow cytometry with calibration using quantitative bead standards were used to enumerate the cell surface receptors CD11a/CD18, CD11b/CD18 and L-selectin. Holding blood at room temperature and fixation of samples prior to staining induced changes in expression, while immediate staining of polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN) in whole blood followed by fixation produced accurate values. The ranges of PMN adhesion molecule expression in 10 normal individuals were CD11a/CD18: 14794–28725, CD11b/CD18: 5300–11939 and L-selectin: 35662–61654 receptors per cell. Differences within individuals over 4 h were also observed. Adhesion molecule expression is used as an index of the adhesive function and state of activation of the cell. The data presented here shows that there is inherent variability in the expression of the PMN adhesion molecules between and within individuals, thus direct comparisons of PMN adhesion molecule expression between patients and “normals” must be interpreted with caution. 相似文献

Lack of association between five polymorphisms in the human glucocorticoid receptor gene and glucocorticoid resistance 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Glucocorticoid resistance due to mutations in the gene for the glucocorticoid receptor has been suggested to be more common
than is thought at present, owing to the relative mildness of its symptoms and the difficulty of its diagnosis. To investigate
the prevalence of mutations in the glucocorticoid receptor gene responsible for relative insensitivity to glucocorticoids,
we carried out polymerase chain reaction/single-strand conformation analysis of the glucocorticoid receptor gene in a group
of 20, otherwise healthy, persons with a reduced response in a dexamethasone suppression test and in 20 controls. We did not
find mutations or polymorphisms associated with a reduced sensitivity to glucocorticoids. However, we identified five novel
polymorphisms in the gene for the human glucocorticoid receptor, which may be useful in analyzing whether loss of (part of)
the glucocorticoid receptor gene plays a role in glucocorticoid-resistant malignancies. Although relative resistance to glucocorticoids
seems to be rather frequent in otherwise healthy persons, it is not usually associated with mutations or polymorphisms in
the glucocorticoid receptor gene.

Although the role of PTH (parathyroid hormone) has been debated in glucocorticoid (GC)-induced osteoporosis (GIO), clinical data about the relation of endogenous PTH to bone metabolism in patients treated with GC are still lacking. The present study was performed to examine the relationship of PTH to bone metabolic indices, bone mineral density (BMD), and bone geometry in 174 female patients treated with oral GC for more than 6 months. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) were employed for the assessment of BMD and bone geometry. No elevation of serum PTH levels was observed in patients treated with GC. Although serum levels of osteocalcin were not related to serum PTH levels, urinary levels of deoxypiridinoline were positively correlated. Serum PTH levels were negatively related to BMD at any site. In pQCT, serum PTH levels were negatively correlated to both trabecular and cortical volumetric BMD. As for bone morphometric indices, serum PTH levels were significantly related to endocortical circumferences, cortical thickness, and cortical area. Moreover, serum PTH levels were significantly higher in patients with vertebral fractures, compared with those without vertebral fractures in GC-treated patients. In the present study, serum PTH levels were related to the elevation of bone resorption marker, decreased BMD, cortical thinning, and an increase of vertebral fracture risk. The elevation of sensitivity to PTH in bone might play some role in the pathogenesis of GIO. 相似文献

Although a role for CD8+ T cells in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has been suggested, the precise nature of their involvement is not fully understood. In the present study we examined the central and effector memory phenotypes of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in the peripheral blood of patients with RA and systemic lupus erythematosus. Terminally differentiated effector memory CD45RA+CD62L-CD8+ T cells were significantly decreased in RA patients, whereas the central memory CD45RA-CD62L+ CD8+ T-cell population was increased as compared with levels in healthy control individuals. Na?ve and preterminally differentiated effector memory CD45RA-CD62L- CD8+ T cells did not differ between RA patients and control individuals. The CD45RA-CD62L+ central memory CD4+ T-cell subpopulation was increased in RA patients, whereas the na?ve and effector memory phenotype of CD4+ T cells did not differ between RA patients and control individuals. In patients with systemic lupus erythematosus the distribution of na?ve/memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells did not differ from that in age- and sex-matched control individuals. These findings show that peripheral blood CD8+ T cells from RA patients exhibit a skewed maturation phenotype that suggests a perturbation in the homeostasis of these cells. The central memory CD45RA-CD62L+ CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell numbers were increased in RA, suggesting an accelerated maturation of na?ve T cells. The decreased numbers of terminally differentiated CD45RA+CD62L- effector memory CD8+ T cells in peripheral blood of RA patients may reflect increased apoptosis of these cells or enhanced migration of these cells to sites of inflammation, which may play a role in the pathogenesis of RA. 相似文献

Covalent association between human thymus leukemia-like antigens and CD8(Tp32) molecules 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Several TL-like molecules have been identified on human thymocytes. Some of these TL-like molecules are disulfide-bonded to CD8(Tp32), on which they form the thymus-specific 45 kilodalton (Kd) subunit of the CD8 complex. TL-like molecules are associated with beta 2 microglobulin. However, beta 2 microglobulin is not co-precipitated with the CD8-TL complexes, suggesting that CD8 and beta 2 microglobulin are alternative association structures for TL-like molecules. CD8 is present as high m.w. complexes of 72 and 135 Kd that are composed of 32 Kd subunits only, and as high m.w. complexes of 120 and greater than 150 Kd that are composed of both 32 and 45 Kd (TL-like) subunits. A third subunit of CD8 with an apparent m.w. of 52 Kd was seen as part of the 72 Kd complex, and may represent an incompletely reduced dimer of the 32 Kd subunit. 相似文献
