Hepatic Allograft

The pathogenesis of hepatic allograft rejection remains unclear. We aimed to clarify the early role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)-mediated cell recruitment in chronic hepatic rejection. Liver transplantation was performed from Lewis to Lewis rats (isograft controls) and from Lewis to Brown Norway rats (allograft rejection group). The allografted rats were treated with either ICAM-1 antisense oligonucleotides (10 mg · kg−1· day−1× 6 days ip) or a control preparation (either ICAM-1 missense oligonucleotide or normal saline). Hepatic leukocyte recruitment in vivo was studied on day 6 by using intravital microscopy. Liver histology, biochemistry, and survival rates were also examined. Leukocyte adhesion in terminal hepatic venules was significantly increased in the rejection group compared with isograft controls. Antisense ICAM-1 in the allografted group effectively reduced leukocyte adhesion. Histology and liver chemistry were less deranged in the antisense-treated groups compared with control-treated allografted rats. In the allograft groups, survival was significantly prolonged in the antisense-treated rats (42.3 ± 1.2 days) compared with the controls (25.2 ± 2.7 days). These results showed that early leukocyte recruitment in the hepatic microvasculature of rejecting allografts is ICAM-1 dependent and suggest that impacting on early cell recruitment can significantly ameliorate chronic rejection.

Adhesion Efficiency

To study selectin-independent leukocyte recruitment and the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), we generated mice lacking all three selectins and ICAM-1 (E/P/L/I−/−) by bone marrow transplantation. These mice were viable and appeared healthy under vivarium conditions, although they showed a 97% reduction in leukocyte rolling, a 63% reduction in leukocyte firm adhesion, and a 99% reduction of neutrophil recruitment in a thioglycollate-induced model of peritonitis at 4 and 24 h. Mononuclear cell recruitment was almost unaffected. All residual leukocyte rolling and most leukocyte adhesion in these mice depended on α4-integrins, but a small number of leukocytes (6% of wild-type control) still became adherent in the absence of all known rolling mechanisms (E-, P-, L-selectin and α4-integrins). A striking similarity of leukocyte adhesion efficiency in E/P/L−/− and E/P/I−/− mice suggests a pathway in which leukocyte rolling through L-selectin requires ICAM-1 for adhesion and recruitment. Comparison of our data with mice lacking individual or other combinations of adhesion molecules reveal that elimination of more adhesion molecules further reduces leukocyte recruitment but the effect is less than additive.

Pulmonary Microcirculation

During systemic inflammation, recruitment and activation of leukocytes in the pulmonary microcirculation may result in a potentially life-threatening acute lung injury. We elucidated the role of the poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase (PARS), a nucleotide-polymerizing enzyme, in the regulation of leukocyte recruitment within the lung with regard to the localization in the pulmonary microcirculation and in correlation to hemodynamics in the respective vascular segments and expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 during endotoxemia. Inhibition of PARS by 3-aminobenzamide reduced the endotoxin-induced leukocyte recruitment within pulmonary arterioles, capillaries, and venules in rabbits as quantified by in vivo fluorescence microscopy. Microhemodynamics and thus shear rates in all pulmonary microvascular segments remained constant. Simultaneously, inhibition of PARS with 3-aminobenzamide suppressed the endotoxin-induced adhesion molecules expression as demonstrated for intercellular adhesion molecule 1 by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. We confirmed this result with the use of PARS knockout mice. The inhibitory effect of 3-aminobenzamide on leukocyte recruitment was associated with a reduction of pulmonary capillary leakage and edema formation. We first provide evidence that PARS activation mediates the leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels through upregulation of adhesion molecules. As reactive oxygen species released from leukocyte are supposed to cause an upregulation of adhesion molecules we conclude that PARS inhibition contributes to termination of this vicious cycle and inhibits the inflammatory process.

We have shown previously that excessive distention of the rat trachea during mechanical ventilation results in enhanced leukocyte recruitment to the airway (Lim LH and Wagner EM. Am J Respir Crit Care Med 168:1068–1074, 2003). The objectives of this study were to develop a mouse model of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-induced leukocyte recruitment to the airway and begin to pursue molecular mechanisms that may contribute to the in vivo observation of increased leukocyte adhesion after PEEP exposure. We studied C57BL/6 wild-type mice and mice deficient in P-selectin or intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) exposed to intermittent PEEP (8 cmH2O) applied five times for a 1-min duration, at 10-min intervals. After the imposed ventilatory stress, during normal ventilation (0.2 ml/breath, no PEEP), leukocyte adhesion in tracheal postcapillary venules was determined using intravital microscopy. PEEP induced a time-dependent increase in leukocyte adhesion that was significantly increased between 0 and 60 min ( P < 0.01). Furthermore, PEEP-induced leukocyte adhesion at 60 min was ablated in P-selectin- and ICAM-1-deficient mice. These findings demonstrate the essential nature of both P-selectin and ICAM-1 within airway postcapillary venular endothelium for leukocyte recruitment after airway distension.

Natural Tolerance

Adhesion and subsequent penetration of leukocytes into central nervous system ischemic tissue proceeds via a coordinated inflammatory mechanism involving adhesion molecules at the blood-endothelium interface. Mammalian hibernation is a state of natural tolerance to severely reduced blood flow-oxygen delivery (i.e., ischemia). Hibernating thirteen-lined ground squirrels were investigated in an attempt to identify factors responsible for regulating this tolerance. Since leukocytopenia is closely associated with entrance into hibernation, the role of leukocyte adhesion to endothelium in this phenomenon was examined. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is expressed by endothelium and regulates interactions with circulating leukocytes that may result in margination or extravasation. ICAM-1 expression by rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cells (EC) cultured with plasma from hibernating (HP) or nonhibernating (NHP) thirteen-lined ground squirrels was dose dependently increased by HP and, to a lesser extent, by NHP. Treatment of EC with HP coincidentally induced significantly greater increases in monocyte adhesion to EC (37.2%) than were observed with NHP (23.9%). Study of the effects of HP and NHP on monocyte adhesion to EC may identify mechanisms responsible for ischemic tolerance in hibernators and could lead to the development of novel therapeutic approaches to the treatment of stroke.

We have previously shown that 3F8, a murine IgG3, monoclonal antibody (MoAb) specific for the ganglioside GD2, mediates tumor cell kill in vitro and in vivo. We now describe receptor requirements of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) in 3F8-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) of human GD2 (+) melanoma and neuroblastoma cell lines. PMN from a child with leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) were devoid of CD11/CD18 adhesion molecules and mounted no detectable ADCC. MoAb to CD11b, CD11c, and CD18 each efficiently blocked ADCC by normal PMN. In contrast, a panel of different MoAbs to CD11a had no significant inhibitory effect on ADCC, a finding consistent with the low-to-absent expression of the CD11a ligand, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, on the target cells. Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM- CSF) significantly increased the expression of CD11b, CD11c, and CD18 on normal PMN, decreased the expression of Fc receptors (FcR), and enhanced ADCC by normal but not by LAD PMN. MoAbs to FcRII and FcRIII each efficiently blocked ADCC; anti-FcRI MoAb had no effect. Flow cytometry using anti-FcRII MoAb versus anti-FcRIII MoAb did not show cross competition, suggesting that inhibition of ADCC was not a steric effect resulting from FcRII proximity to FcRIII. PMN deficient in FcRIII (obtained from patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria) and PMN depleted of FcRIII by treatment with elastase or phosphatidylinositol (PI)-specific phospholipase C produced low ADCC, supporting a role for the PI-liked FcRIII. Thus, optimal ADCC using human PMN, human solid tumor cells, and a clinically active MoAb (conditions that contrast with the heterologous antibodies and nonhuman or nonneoplastic targets used in most models of PMN ADCC) required CD11b, CD11c, FcRII, and the PI-linked FcRIII. Furthermore, in this clinically relevant system, GM-CSF enhancement of antitumor PMN ADCC correlated with increased expression of CD11/CD18 molecules.

Inflammatory Reactions

The leukocyte beta 2-integrin Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) and its endothelial ligand intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) are involved in leukocyte adhesion to and macromolecular leakage from postcapillary venules during inflammatory reactions. Both events are also encountered after ischemia-reperfusion of striated muscle, suggesting a central role of both adhesion proteins in reperfusion injury. Using intravital fluorescence microscopy and a microcirculation model in awake BALB/C mice, we investigated the effects of monoclonal antibodies (MAb) and Fab fragments to Mac-1 and MAb to ICAM-1 on leukocyte-endothelium interaction and macromolecular leakage of fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran (1.5 x 10(5) mol wt) in striated skin muscle after 3 h of ischemia followed by reperfusion. We demonstrated that administration of MAb and Fab to Mac-1 before reperfusion was as effective as administration of MAb to ICAM-1, which was found to be significantly upregulated in the postischemic tissue by immunohistochemical analysis, in preventing postischemic leukocyte adhesion to and macromolecular leakage from postcapillary venules, whereas postischemic leukocyte rolling was not affected after MAb administration. Postischemic capillary perfusion was efficiently preserved in animals treated with anti-Mac-1 and anti-ICAM-1 MAb compared with animals receiving the isotype-matched control antibodies.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Inflammation is causally linked to many chronic human disorders and constitutes a growing problem in the ageing population. The inflammatory process is driven by interactions of activated leukocytes with the endothelial lining of blood vessels. This requires binding of leukocyte β2-integrins to endothelial ICAM-1 (InterCellular Adhesion Molecule-1), which allows leukocyte adhesion, spreading, crawling and transendothelial migration (TEM). Integrin binding induces ICAM-1 clustering and its consequent association to F-actin which enforces leukocyte adhesion. Here, we analyzed the molecular basis of this positive feedback loop. We show that ICAM-1 clustering promotes its binding to F-actin through distinct complexes with FilaminB, Cortactin and α-Actinin-4. We found that α-Actinin-4 regulates endothelial cell peripheral stiffness, which is sensed by adherent neutrophils and promotes adhesion, spreading, crawling and TEM. Conversely, increasing endothelial cell stiffness stimulates the ICAM-1-α-Actinin-4 interaction. Finally, we found that the endothelial lining of atherosclerotic plaques, which is characterized by increased stiffness and leukocyte infiltration, shows increased expression of α-Actinin-4. These results identify α-Actinin-4-regulated endothelial cell stiffness as a novel pro-inflammatory event that promotes ICAM-1-mediated leukocyte adhesion and TEM.

It is well acknowledged that proinflammatory stimulation during acute hyperglycemia is able to aggravate inflammatory diseases. However, the mechanisms of proinflammatory effects of glucose are controversially discussed. We investigated leukocyte recruitment after intravenous injection of glucose in different inflammatory models using intravital microscopy. Flow chamber experiments, expression analysis, functional depletion, and knockout of key adhesion molecules gave mechanistic insight in involved pathways. We demonstrated that a single injection of glucose rapidly increased blood glucose levels in a dose-dependent manner. Notably, during tumor necrosis factor (TNF)α-induced inflammation leukocyte recruitment was not further enhanced by glucose administration, whereas glucose injection profoundly augmented leukocyte adhesion and transmigration into inflamed tissue in the trauma model, indicating that proinflammatory properties of glucose are stimulus dependent. Experiments with functional or genetic inhibition of the chemokine receptor CXCR2, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM1), and lymphocyte function antigen 1 (LFA1) suggest that keratino-derived-chemokine CXCL1-triggered interactions of ICAM1 and LFA1 are crucially involved in the trauma model of inflammation. The lacking effect of glucose onβ2integrin expression and on leukocyte adhesion in dynamic flow chamber experiments argues against leukocyte-driven underlying mechanisms and favours an endothelial pathway since endothelial ICAM1 expression was significantly upregulated in response to glucose.
