Abstract Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is present on the endothelium and binds to one or more members of the CD11/CD18 family of leukocyte surface integrins. To assess the role of these molecules in mediating chemotaxis of neutrophils across the endothelium, an in vitro model consisting of monolayers of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) grown on amniotic connective tissue was used. Neutrophils placed on the apical sides of these cultures migrated across the endothelium in response to chemoattractants added basally. Monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) to CD11a, CD11b, and CD18 on the neutrophils inhibited this migration by 52% +/- 11%, 29% +/- 19%, and 90% +/- 7%, respectively. An MoAb to ICAM-1 inhibited transendothelial chemotaxis of the leukocytes by 55% +/- 16%. Inhibition was mediated by binding of the MoAb to ICAM-1 on the HUVEC, rather than by any direct effect of the antibody on the neutrophils. When used in combination, MoAbs to CD11a and to CD11b inhibited migration in a nearly additive fashion. A similar additive effect was observed when MoAbs to CD11b and to ICAM-1 were used together. In contrast, MoAbs to CD11a and to ICAM-1 produced no more inhibition when used in combination than when added singly. These results show that ICAM-1, CD11a/CD18, and CD11b/CD18 all participate in controlling migration of neutrophils across endothelial monolayers in response to chemotactic agents.

Thrombin-induced expression of endothelial adhesivity toward neutrophils (PMN) was studied using human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). HUVEC were challenged with human alpha-thrombin for varying durations up to 120 min, after which the cells were fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde and 51Cr-labeled human PMN were added to determine PMN adhesion. Endothelial adhesivity increased within 15 min after alpha-thrombin exposure, and the response persisted up to 120 min. Expression of endothelial adhesion proteins, P-selectin (GMP-140, PADGEM, CD62), and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1; CD54) on the endothelial surface was quantitated by increase in the specific binding of anti-P-selectin mAb G1 and anti-ICAM-1 mAb RR1/1 labeled with 125I. P-selectin expression was maximal at 5-15 min alpha-thrombin exposure and decayed to basal levels within 90 min. In contrast, ICAM-1 activity increased at 30 min and remained elevated for 120 min after alpha-thrombin challenge. The initial endothelial adhesivity was dependent on P-selectin expression since PMN adhesion occurring within the first 30 min after alpha-thrombin challenge was inhibited by mAb G1. The later prolonged PMN adhesion was ICAM-1 dependent since this response was inhibited by mAb RR1/1 and to the same degree by the anti-CD18 mAb IB4. Anti-ELAM-1 mAb BB11 had no effect on adhesion of PMN to the alpha-thrombin-challenged cells. The initial P-selectin expression and PMN adhesion responses were reproduced by the 14-amino peptide (SFLLRNPNDKYEPF) (thrombin-receptor activity peptide; TRP-14) which comprised the NH2 terminus created by thrombin's proteolytic action on its receptors. However, TRP-14-induced PMN adhesion was transient, and TRP-14 did not cause ICAM-1 expression. The ICAM-1-dependent PMN adhesion mediated by alpha-thrombin was protein synthesis independent since ICAM-1 expression and PMN adhesion were not inhibited by cycloheximide pretreatment of HUVEC. Moreover, Northern blot analysis indicated absence of ICAM-1 mRNA signal up to 180 min after alpha-thrombin challenge. In conclusion, thrombin-induced endothelial adhesivity involves early- and late-phase responses. The initial reversible PMN adhesion is mediated by rapid P-selectin expression via TRP-14 generation. Thrombin-induced PMN adhesion is stabilized by a protein synthesis-independent upregulation of the constitutive ICAM-1 activity which enables the interaction of ICAM-1 with the CD18 beta 2 integrin on PMN.
