Abstract
The modulation of adhesive interaction between lymphocyte progenitors and bone marrow stroma may critically determine the maturation and migration of B cell progenitors. mAb against CD9 and beta 1 integrins are reported to induce the homotypic adhesion of pre-B cells. We present evidence that the anti-CD9 mAb 50H.19 and ALB6 but not the proaggregatory anti-VLA-4 mAb 44H6 also enhance the Fc-independent heterotypic adhesion of the human pre-B cell lines NALM-6 and HOON to bone-marrow stromal fibroblasts (BM-FB) but not to bone marrow stroma. CD9-enhanced binding of NALM-6 cells to BM-FB was inhibited 58% by the anti-VLA-4 mAb HP2/1, 36% by the anti-VLA-5 mAb BIIG2, and 99% by their combination. The mAb effectively inhibited adhesion when prebound to NALM-6 cells but not when prebound to BM-FB. The anti-VCAM-1 mAb E1/6 inhibited CD9-enhanced adhesion by only 14% suggesting the involvement of other ligands. Adhesion was inhibited by mAbs against the COOH-terminus and central cell binding domains of fibronectin, as well as by the corresponding CS1 and RGD peptides. Adhesion was not affected by H-7 and sphingosine, inhibitors of protein kinase C. These results suggest that perturbation of CD9 on pre-B cells promotes recognition of stromal cell fibronectin by VLA-4 and VLA-5 and implicates CD9 as a novel regulator of inside-out signaling relevant to B lymphopoiesis.

Abstract
We investigated the role of the LFA-1/ICAM, VLA-4/VCAM-1 and CD2/LFA-3 adhesion pathways in the cytolysis of tumor cells mediated by an anti-EGF-R/anti-CD3 bispecific monoclonal antibody (biMAb). The biMAb induced efficient lysis of EGF-R+ tumor cells (A431, HT-29, IGROV-1 and MDA-MB468) by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) cultured in IL-2. Pretreatment of effector cells by anti-LFA-1 alpha (CD11a) and anti-LFA-1 beta (CD18) MAbs significantly inhibited cytolysis of all types of EGF-R+ tumor cells, while anti-CD2 and anti-VLA-4 MAbs were virtually ineffective. We investigated the expression of adhesion-molecule counter-receptors on tumor target cells by indirect immunofluorescence. HT-29, A431 and MDA-MB 468 tumor cells expressed an ICAM-1+2-3- VCAM-1- LFA-3+ phenotype, while IGROV-1 was ICAM-1-2+3- VCAM-1- LFA-3+. Pre-treatment of A431, HT-29 and MDA-MB468 with anti-ICAM-1 MAb inhibited cytolysis, further supporting the functional involvement of the LFA-1/ICAM adhesion pathway in biMAb-targeted tumor-cell lysis. In addition, treatment of target cells with TNF alpha or IFN gamma for 24 hr increased the expression of ICAM-1 in HT-29, A431 and MDA-MB468 (ICAM-2 was induced on IGROV-1) and also enhanced the sensitivity of these target cells to biMAb-targeted cytotoxicity. These data suggest that up-regulation of ICAM-molecule expression by inflammatory cytokines may increase susceptibility of tumor cells to biMAb-targeted lysis. Anti-LFA-1 MAbs did not significantly inhibit the formation of conjugates between biMAb-coated T lymphocytes and tumor cells. Co-aggregation of LFA-1 molecules with biMAb-bound CD3 molecules resulted in a more sustained and prolonged increase in the intracellular concentration of free Ca++ in CD8+ cultured CTL lines. These findings indicate that in T cells targeted by anti-CD3/anti-TAA biMAb LFA-1 may act as a co-receptor molecule which enhances signal transduction through the CD3/TCR complex.

Abstract
We generated four monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific for human alpha 3 integrin (VLA-3 alpha subunit). All of them were found to induce homotypic cell aggregation of HT1080 fibrosarcoma and SN12C renal carcinoma cells, both of which express high levels of alpha 3 integrin. The antibodies also induced the cell aggregation of K562 erythroleukemic cells transfected with alpha 3 integrin cDNA, but not the parental K562 cells. The aggregation was observed in a temperature-dependent manner and was not inhibited by the addition of EDTA. Immunofluorescence microscopic observation showed that alpha 3 integrin on HT1080 cells was translocated into the contact regions after the mAb treatment. The intercellular adhesion between cells expressing alpha 3 integrin and cells without alpha 3 integrin was also induced by the anti-alpha 3 antibody treatment.

Abstract
Monocytes traverse the endothelial lining of blood vessels and migrate into both normal and inflamed tissues. An in vitro model of a vascular wall, consisting of HUVEC cultured on acellular human amniotic tissue, was employed to examine the roles of several adhesion molecules in diapedesis of monocytes. Approximately half of the monocytes added to this system traversed the endothelium in a time-dependent fashion, completing their migration within 2 h. Pretreatment of HUVEC with IL-1 beta for 4 h increased the rate of adhesion of monocytes, but did not alter the number that ultimately migrated. A mAb to CD18, ts1/18, greatly inhibited adhesion and migration of monocytes when the monocytes were incubated with unstimulated HUVEC monolayers for 20 min. Much less inhibition was observed when the incubation period was increased to 2 h or when HUVEC were pretreated with IL-1 beta. A mAb to VLA-4, HP1/2, had little or no inhibitory effect in all cases. The combination of ts1/18 and HP1/2 greatly inhibited (up to 98%) adhesion and migration of monocytes across both unstimulated and IL-1 beta-stimulated monolayers. Additional inhibition experiments indicated that VLA-4 interacted with unstimulated endothelium by binding to VCAM-1 and, to a much lesser extent, fibronectin. These results suggest that monocytes are capable of interacting with endothelium during diapedesis via either CD11/CD18- or VLA-4-dependent pathways.

Abstract
We investigated the requirement for intimate contact between bone marrow stroma and B lymphoblasts from normal donors and children with leukemia. By scanning electron microscopy, both normal and leukemic cells seeded onto stroma were surrounded by folds of stromal cells or were linked to the stroma by fine tendrils and uropods. Separation of normal B progenitors from stroma by use of microporous membranes led to significantly lower cell recoveries compared with results when contact was unimpeded. For instance, 22.5% +/- 1.8% (mean +/- SEM) of CD19+, CD34+ cells (most immature subset) were recovered after a 7-day culture directly on stroma, compared with 5.2% +/- 0.7% after growth on membranes (P < .001 by Student's t test). In 6 of 11 cases of B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia, separation of progenitors from stroma resulted in apoptosis and a greater than 60% reduction in cell recovery. In the remaining 5 cases, however, this effect was much less pronounced, with reductions in cell recoveries ranging from 48.5% to less than 1% (median, 39.0%) of control values. Inhibition of very late antigen-4, a surface molecule critical for adhesion of B lymphoblasts to stroma, was associated with a greater loss of normal CD34+ B progenitors compared with that for equivalent leukemic cells. These results establish direct contact with stroma as a survival requirement of normal B lymphoblasts and show marked heterogeneity in stromal dependency among B-lineage leukemic cells.

Abstract
During the process of implantation, maternal spiral arteries within the decidua are invaded by trophoblast cells that adhere to and migrate along the luminal surface of the vascular endothelial cells. This phenomenon resembles the events that occur during the migration of neutrophils into an acute inflammatory site, therefore it is possible that similar mechanisms are involved. Indeed, previous observations have shown that endovascular trophoblast expresses the blood group-related antigen sialyl Le(x). In this study, we show, by immunohistology, the expression of both E- and P-selectin by vascular endothelial cells only in the decidua basalis and not in decidua parietalis. In contrast, ICAM-1 is expressed by all vascular endothelium throughout the decidua. Expression of VCAM-1 is variable at the implantation site, and is not expressed by vascular endothelial cells in decidua parietalis. Interestingly, we demonstrate the strong expression of a polysialylated form of NCAM by endovascular trophoblast. Our data suggests that vascular invasion by trophoblast is regulated by the expression of appropriate adhesion molecules which permit interaction between endovascular trophoblast and decidual endothelial cells.

Abstract
The present study was designed to characterize the adhesive interaction of c-myc-transfected B-lymphoblastoid cell lines with resting and interleukin-1-activated endothelial cells. The transfected cell lines expressed lower levels of leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 compared with control non-transfected lines, while no reduction of expression of other surface structures, including the beta 1 integrin very late antigen-4, was observed. The transfected cell lines adhered to resting or activated endothelial cells less than control cells. Anti-CD18 monoclonal antibody inhibited binding of control cell lines but had a modest or no effect on adhesion of transfected cell lines. Anti-very late antigen-4 monoclonal antibody effectively inhibited binding of both transfected and control cell lines; this was more pronounced in the presence of anti-CD18, suggesting a cooperative interaction between these adhesion pathways. Transfected cell lines also had an impaired ability to penetrate endothelial cell monolayers in a transmigration assay. Our results indicate that activation of the c-myc oncogene in B-cells causes alterations in the adhesive interaction with endothelial cells. This may be relevant in the localization and malignant behavior of B-cell lymphomas carrying an activated c-myc oncogene.

Abstract
The effects of laminin isoforms on platelet aggregation were compared and characterized in platelet rich plasma (PRP) obtained from 26 healthy human volunteers. In approximately 38% of the individuals tested, human laminin produced a biphasic platelet aggregation response. Human laminin produced only a primary phase in the remaining "non-responsive" individuals. Mouse laminin, rat laminin and human merosin did not cause platelet aggregation in any of the volunteers. The biphasic platelet aggregation response caused by human laminin was concentration-dependent (0.3-30 nM) and was consistently observed upon repeated testing of "responsive" individuals. The secondary phase of aggregation produced by human laminin in "responsive" individuals was abolished by aspirin, SQ 29,548, a selective thromboxane antagonist, and SK&F 106760, an RGD-derived platelet fibrinogen receptor (GPIIb/IIIa) antagonist. Also, the secondary phase of aggregation was not observed in washed platelets. Both the primary and secondary platelet responses produced by human laminin were abolished by a VLA-6 (alpha 6 beta 1) monoclonal antibody, but not by the YIGSR pentapeptide. In conclusion, human laminin causes thromboxane-dependent platelet aggregation, in vitro, in a significant population of human volunteers. The aggregation response was dependent upon the interaction of human laminin with platelet VLA-6 (alpha 6 beta 1). These novel results suggest that in some individuals laminin may play an important role in hemostasis and thrombogenesis.

Abstract
Tumour progression is thought to be determined, at least in part, by the balance between available cell surface receptors and the nature of the surrounding extracellular matrix. The integrin family of transmembrane adhesion receptors involved in tumour cell-matrix interactions mediates cell adhesion, migration, and differentiation. Certain patterns of integrin receptor expression on normal and malignant colon epithelial cells are emerging, and it is now clear that integrins can also regulate such divergent processes as cell proliferation and programmed cell death in this tumour type. This implies that integrins are involved in signal transduction events within colon carcinoma cells consequent upon their adhesive interaction with matrix molecules. A better understanding of the mechanisms involved in these events may lead to useful therapeutic strategies in the management of this disease.

Abstract
Because the mechanisms associated with recruitment of monocytes to brain in AIDS encephalitis are unknown, we used tissues from rhesus monkeys infected with simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) to examine the relative contributions of various adhesion pathways in mediating monocyte adhesion to endothelium from encephalitic brain. Using a modified Stamper and Woodruff tissue adhesion assay, we found that the human monocytic cell lines, THP-1 and U937, and the B cell line, Ramos, preferentially bound to brain vessels from monkeys with AIDS encephalitis. Using a combined tissue adhesion/immunohistochemistry approach, these cells only bound to vessels expressing vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). Furthermore, pretreatment of tissues with antibodies to VCAM-1 or cell lines with antibodies to VLA-4 (CD49d) inhibited adhesion by more than 70%. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)/beta 2 integrin interactions were not significant in mediating cell adhesion to the vasculature in encephalitic simian brain using a cell line (JY) capable of binding rhesus monkey ICAM-1. In addition, selectin-mediated interactions did not significantly contribute to cell binding to encephalitic brain as there was no immunohistochemical expression of E-selectin and P-selectin in either normal or encephalitic brain, nor was there a demonstrable adhesive effect from L-selectin using L-selectin-transfected 300.19 cells on simian encephalitic brain. These results demonstrate that using the tissue adhesion assay, THP-1, U937, and Ramos cells bind to vessels in brain from animals with AIDS encephalitis using VCAM-1/alpha 4 beta 1 integrin interactions and suggest that VCAM-1 and VLA-4 may be integral for monocyte recruitment to the central nervous system during the development of AIDS encephalitis.

Abstract
Adhesion of cancer cells to endothelium is thought to be a prerequisite to extravasation during the haematogenous phase of metastasis, and is enhanced after perturbation of the endothelium by interleukin-1 (IL-1). The inducible endothelial adhesion molecules, E-selectin, VCAM-1/alpha 4 beta 1 and vitronectin receptor have been reported to mediate attachment of cancer cells to IL-1-treated endothelial cells. We have examined the relative contribution of these molecules by quantifying the adhesion of a panel of 22 human, 125I-labelled cancer cells and the rat W256 tumour to untreated and IL-1-treated endothelial monolayers in the presence of relevant neutralising antibodies. Antibodies against E-selectin inhibited the adhesion of HL-60 leukaemia cells and two colon carcinomas. Anti-alpha 4 beta 1 antibodies blocked adhesion of four melanomas, five sarcomas and one lung carcinoma. Anti-vitronectin receptor antibodies inhibited adhesion of 14 of the 22 human cell lines to IL-1-treated endothelial cells. Adhesion of seven cell lines was inhibited by more than a single antibody. In contrast, adhesion of one of the cancer cell lines was unaffected by any of the antibodies, suggesting involvement of other IL-1-inducible endothelial adhesion molecules. Moreover, none of the antibodies altered the attachment of cancer cells to unstimulated endothelial monolayers. We conclude that the mechanisms of cancer cell adhesion to the endothelium are influenced by endothelial activation and by the adhesive repertoire of the cancer cell.

Abstract
The integrin alpha 4 beta 1 and its counter receptor vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) mediate well-described cell-cell interactions that are critical for immune function. However, these receptors also mediate cell-cell interactions that are important for skeletal muscle differentiation. We have found that contrasting transcriptional mechanisms control their patterns of expression in the immune system and in muscle. Recent studies indicate that alpha 4 beta 1 and VCAM-1 are also expressed in a number of developing tissues, implying that these receptors have a general role in facilitating cell-cell interactions during development.

Abstract
Proliferation of normal human lymphoid progenitors in culture is dependent on interaction with bone marrow-derived fibroblast-like cells (BM-FB). To investigate possible heterogeneity in this lymphoid-supportive microenvironment, we studied the interaction of a human B-precursor cell line (NALM-6) with BM-FB. NALM-6 cells associate with BM-FB by either adhesion or migration underneath the fibroblast. Individual fibroblasts in the BM-FB layer showed significant variation in the number of migrating NALM-6 cells. Migration of NALM-6 cells was primarily VLA-4-dependent, although residual migration observable after blocking with anti-VLA-alpha 4 antibody was inhibited by anti-VLA-alpha 5 antibody. Migration was not inhibited by blocking either of the known VLA-4 counterreceptors (VCAM-1 or fibronectin), although slight inhibition was observed using a combination of blocking antibodies to VCAM-1 and fibronectin. In contrast, NALM-6 adhesion without migration was significantly inhibitable by anti-VCAM-1 antibody. VCAM-1 or fibronectin expression on individual BM-FB did not correlate with NALM-6 migration. These results indicate that the adhesion and migration of human B-lymphoid precursors in the bone marrow microenvironment are mechanistically separable events and suggest the possibility of novel VLA-4 ligand(s), which may be important in human lymphopoiesis. Subpopulations of cells in the bone marrow microenvironment may preferentially support important aspects of lymphoid progenitor development.

Abstract
The migration of human monocytes across unactivated and activated human umbilical vein endothelium (HUVE) in response to chemotactic factors was studied, and the adhesion molecules involved were characterized. Migration of blood monocytes or U937 cell line-derived monocytes across unactivated HUVE induced by C5a, was partially inhibited (by 75%) by mAbs (R15.7 or 60.3) to CD18 of the CD11/CD18 complex on the monocyte. However, when the HUVE was pretreated for 5 h with IL-1 alpha (0.1 ng/ml), TNF-alpha (100 U/ml), or LPS (1 ng/ml), migration induced by C5a was no longer inhibited; i.e., migration became CD18 independent. The monocyte CD18-independent migration was completely blocked by mAbs against alpha 4 or beta 1 integrin chains of VLA-4. This migration was also partially inhibited by mAbs against vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), a major counter-receptor on HUVE for VLA-4, but not by mAbs to E-selectin or intercellular adhesion molecule-1. The significant CD18-independent migration across "unactivated" HUVE was also inhibited by mAbs against alpha 4 or beta 1 chains of VLA-4, although mAbs against VCAM-1 did not inhibit under these conditions. Finally, considerable VLA-4-dependent transendothelial migration to C5a was also observed with monocytes from a patient with CD18 deficiency (leukocyte adhesion deficiency). These results suggest that (a) there is a major CD18-independent component in monocyte chemotactic factor-dependent migration across activated and unactivated endothelium; (b) that VLA-4 integrin on the monocyte has a major role in this migration; and (c) that VCAM-1 on activated endothelium functions as a counter-receptor in this process, but other ligands for VLA-4, especially on unactivated endothelium, may also be involved.

Abstract
Normal B lymphopoiesis is dependent on a close relationship between B-cell precursors and the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. To further understand the mechanisms regulating the proliferation of the malignant counterpart of B-cell precursors, namely precursor-B acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), we examined the adhesion to BM fibroblasts (BMF) of 19 cases of precursor-B ALL using a chromium labeling assay. Eleven of 19 cases showed greater than 10% binding to BMF (range 2.3% to 54.8%, mean 19.1%). Binding was increased approximately twofold by preincubation of BMF with tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-4, which also resulted in upregulation of expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) on BMF. The mechanism of attachment was investigated using murine monoclonal antibodies to leukocyte integrins, principally the beta, integrins VLA-4 and VLA-5, which were demonstrated to be present on most cases by flow cytometry. Statistically significant inhibition of adhesion was observed with antibodies to the beta 1 common subunit, VLA-4, and VLA-5, whereas little effect was seen with antibodies to VLA-6 or the beta 2 integrin subunit. Preincubation of fibroblasts with an antibody to VCAM-1 (a ligand of VLA-4) inhibited leukemic cell binding in the majority of cases, which was an effect also observed on cytokine-stimulated BMF. However, a minority of cases, as well as the pre-B lines NALM-6 and KM-3, showed no evidence of inhibition of adhesion with anti-VCAM-1 antibodies. Treatment of BMF with antifibronectin antibody alone had little effect on ALL adhesion and did not enhance the inhibitory effect of anti-VCAM-1. These data indicate that precursor-B ALL cells bind to BM stroma through the beta 1 integrins VLA-4 and VLA-5 and that this effect is partly mediated by VCAM-1 on stromal cells, although other undefined VLA ligands are also likely to be involved. Attachment of ALL cells to stroma is likely to play a key role in regulating the survival and growth of these cells through exposure to stromal cytokines.

Abstract
We herein tested the ability of lymphocytes to utilize the beta 1 integrin VLA-4 to mediate cell migration when adhering to its cytokine-inducible endothelial cell ligand VCAM-1 or its extracellular matrix ligand fibronectin. We used an in vitro system consisting of purified VCAM-1/Fc fusion protein or fibronectin immobilized on porous polycarbonate membranes to quantitatively measure the migration efficiency of an Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B cell line (SLA) and T lymphoblasts derived from normal donors. We found that both SLA cells and T lymphoblasts migrated across membranes coated with VCAM-1/Fc or fibronectin in a site density-dependent manner. Above and below an optimal site density of VCAM-1/Fc or fibronectin, the migration efficiency decreased. A 6-20-fold higher number of lymphocytes migrated across membranes coated with VCAM-1/Fc than with fibronectin. The differential migration efficiency is consistent with a higher number of adherent lymphocytes and a higher avidity of adhesion for VCAM-1/Fc than for fibronectin when the ligands were immobilized on plastic, and is independent of the activation state of the cells. These results demonstrated a stringent regulation of migratory response by cell adhesion strength and a delicate balance between stationary and migratory behaviors of a cell on the adhesive substrates. Like the beta 2 integrin LFA-1, VLA-4 may be a locomotive adhesion receptor which is involved in the transendothelial migration of lymphocytes and the infiltration of lymphocytes into lymphoid or peripheral tissues by binding to VCAM-1 and fibronectin.

Abstract
Venous and arterial large vessel endothelial cells (EC) were compared for their constitutive and TNF-alpha-induced expression of the cell-surface adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and -2, VCAM-1 and ELAM-1 by FACS analysis. Human iliac venous and arterial EC (HIVEC and HIAEC) constitutively express ICAM-1 and ICAM-2. TNF-alpha increases the expression of ICAM-1, but not ICAM-2, and induces the expression of ELAM-1 on both EC types. However, TNF-alpha induces VCAM-1 cell-surface expression and mRNA only in venous, but not in arterial EC. We next investigated the function of these adhesion molecules and their ligands, LFA-1, very late activation Ag (WLA-L) and sialylated Lewis x glycoprotein (sLe(x)), in adhesion assays with the monocyte-like cell line U937. Untreated U937 cells do not adhere to untreated HIVEC or HIAEC and adhesion is much lower to TNF-alpha-treated arterial than to TNF-alpha-treated venous EC. In adhesion-inhibition assays we demonstrate that U937 cell adhesion to TNF-alpha-treated HIVEC is mediated by VCAM-1/VLA-4 and ELAM-1/sLe(x) interaction, whereas the lower adhesion to TNF-alpha-treated HIAEC is only mediated by ELAM-1/sLe(x) interaction. U937 cells treated with the phorbol ester PMA for 3 days adhere to both HIVEC and HIAEC; this adhesion is mediated by LFA-1 interaction with ICAM-1 and/or -2. Adhesion of PMA-treated U937 cells is increased by TNF-alpha treatment of EC. This increased adhesion is mediated in part by the TNF-alpha-induced VCAM-1 expression on venous EC. Therefore, the cell-surface adhesion molecule VCAM-1 is differentially induced on these two EC types and the differential expression is functionally important in U937 cell adhesion.

Abstract
Under certain conditions, NK cells accumulate rapidly at extrahematic sites. In an effort to define the mechanisms underlying recruitment of NK cells in tissues, we investigated their ability to migrate across endothelial cell (EC) monolayers. A considerable proportion of NK cells adhered to EC and about 30 to 40% of the adherent NK cells migrated across EC. NK cells were two to three times more efficient than resting unseparated T cells but were considerably less efficient than monocytes. Exposure of NK cells to IL-2 or of EC to IL-1, TNF, or IFN-gamma augmented transendothelial migration. mAb directed against CD18 and CD11a inhibited binding and migration of NK cells across resting or IL-1-activated EC, whereas anti-CD11b and c mAb did not. Thus, the LFA-1 pathway is a crucial determinant of the adhesive and migratory interactions of NK cells with vascular endothelium. Using IL-1-activated EC, We found that anti-VLA-4 and anti-VCAM-1 mAb, utilized in concert with anti-CD18, significantly reduced adhesion and transmigration. The CS-1 peptide of fibronectin had no effect on binding and migration but, when used in concert with anti-CD18 and anti-VCAM-1 (but not anti-VLA-4), caused a small, but significant, increase in inhibition. The capacity to bind and migrate across endothelial monolayers underlies the recruitment of NK cells in tissues under certain physiologic and pathologic conditions.

Abstract
The alpha 4 integrins mediate lymphocyte adhesion to Peyer's patch high endothelial vessels and homing to Peyer's patch, as well as to mesenteric lymph nodes. In rats, immunity to infection with the nematode Trichinella spiralis is known to be mediated by CD4+ OX22- (CD45RC-) cells that home to the intestine in large numbers. These experiments were conducted to determine whether the alpha 4 integrins or LFA-1 were involved in the expression of intestinal immunity to T. spiralis. Injection of the anti-alpha 4 integrin, mAb TA-2, but not anti-LFA-1, mAb TA-3, impaired the expression of immunity. An effect of TA-2 was measured at three distinct sites along the activation pathway leading to the migration of protective CD4+ OX22- cells to the intestine. Injection of TA-2 on the same day as infection prevented normal rejection of the parasite and abrogated the characteristic appearance of blast cells in draining lymph 3 days after infection. A similar effect on the migration of blast cells at day 3 was seen when TA-2 was injected 1 day after infection, and injection 2 days after infection still reduced the number of protective cells entering TD lymph on day 3. The effect of TA-2 and TA-3 on homing of dividing cells to the gut was examined by injecting dividing cells i.v. at the same time as antibody. Under these conditions migration of dividing cells to the gut was reduced by 90 to 95% and their capacity to adoptively transfer worm rejection blocked. Furthermore, TA-2 treatment also inhibited protection when it was injected 12, 18, or 24 h after the transfer of protective cells, when these cells had already entered the gut, but not when TA-2 injection was delayed for 36 h. These results indicate the involvement of alpha 4 integrins at the following points in the generation, dissemination, and function of CD4+ OX22- effectors: 1) initial activation during the first 48 h of infection; 2) migration of protective cells to and extravasation in the gut; 3) a function after entry into gut tissues. The results suggest that entry of dividing cells into the gut is critical for the adoptive transfer of protection and that alpha 4 integrin has multiple roles in the manifestation of intestinal immunity.

Abstract
The integrin VLA-6 as a laminin receptor and laminin as a ligand for laminin receptor were detected immunohistochemically in normal, benign tumor and carcinoma tissues of the breast. Epithelial cells of both normal breast and benign tumor were in almost all cases strongly immunoreactive for VLA-6 in the plasma membrane. Carcinoma cells in 34 of 70 cases (49%) with an invasive component were not immunoreactive for VLA-6, and no carcinoma cells showed strong positivity. Although carcinoma cells in only four of 51 cases (8%) with intraductal components were negative for VLA-6, 37 cases (72%) showed weak expression of VLA-6 and 10 cases (20%) showed strong expression of VLA-6. A concordant expression of VLA-6 on carcinoma cells and laminin around carcinoma cell nests with an invasive component was observed, and VLA-6 expression in carcinoma cells was correlated to tubular formation in carcinoma cell nests as an indicator of differentiation. These findings suggest that loss of VLA-6 plays a role in the invasion of breast carcinoma, and that VLA-6 laminin receptor and laminin may contribute to tubular differentiation of breast carcinoma cells.

Abstract
Interaction of hemopoietic cells with the elements of the underlying bone marrow stroma, the unique site of their "homing" in adult individuals, is essential for sustained normal hemopoiesis. However, the specific molecules responsible for homing and for the continuing interaction of hemopoietic cells with the bone marrow stromal cells in vivo, or those involved in progenitor/stem cell trafficking through the bloodstream, have not been defined. A large repertoire of adhesion receptors, especially of the integrin family, appear to play a prominent role in promoting adhesion of hemopoietic stem cells to cultured marrow stromal cells in vitro. To test the functional role of cytoadhesion molecules in vivo, we treated primates systemically with either anti-alpha 4- or anti-beta 2-integrin antibodies, whose antigens are found in the majority of hemopoietic progenitors and in many differentiated cells. We found that anti-alpha 4 (anti-VLA4, anti-CD49d) but not anti-beta 2 (anti-CD18) treatment selectively mobilized progenitors into the bloodstream (up to 200-fold). Peripheralization involved erythroid, myeloid, and mixed progenitors; was detectable 24 hr after a single anti-VLA4 injection; and lasted beyond the days of treatment. Anti-VLA4 treatment additively augmented peripheralization of progenitors in animals with a preceding course of granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor. These data provide insight on the involvement of VLA4 antigens in the in vivo trafficking of progenitors and are of relevance to collection of peripheral blood stem cells for transplantation.

Abstract
We have derived a panel of CD4+, TCR-alpha/beta + T cell clones from SJL (H-2s) mice specific for an encephalitogenic determinant of myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) 139-151 (HSLGKWLGHPDKF). All the clones are Ag specific and IAs restricted, but they show heterogeneity in their ability to induce experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), i.e., one group induces EAE in naive mice, a second group induces disease only in mice that are pretreated with pertussis and irradiation, whereas a third group is essentially nonencephalitogenic. To determine the basis for this functional heterogeneity, the clones were tested for the expression of adhesion molecules and cytokines and for Ag-specific cytolytic activity. All of the clones expressed comparable levels of LFA-1 and CD44 but lacked expression of Mel 14. However, those clones that induced EAE only in irradiation- and pertussis-treated recipients did not express VLA4. Because pretreatment with pertussis has been suggested to increase permeability of the blood-brain barrier and facilitate migration of T cells into the central nervous system, the absence of VLA4 on this group of clones may account for the need for pretreatment to induce EAE. The nonencephalitogenic clones expressed all of the adhesion molecules tested but were not cytolytic in vitro and failed to produce one or more of the proinflammatory cytokines after Ag-specific stimulation. One nonencephalitogenic clone that did not produce many cytokines on activation with specific Ag, however, could be activated with Con A to express mRNA for most cytokines and this was accompanied by a concomitant change in the encephalitogenic potency of this clone. These results suggest that adhesion molecules and cytokines both play a critical role in the encephalitogenicity of PLP peptide-specific T cell clones. Furthermore, the nonencephalitogenicity of some clones may be related to a defect in Ag-mediated activation.

Abstract
The CD18 mAb 60.3 and the CD49d mAb HP1/2 were given at the time of intraperitoneal instillation of either protease peptone or live Escherichia coli bacteria and at 12 h. Leukocyte emigration was evaluated at 4 and 24 h. PMN emigration 4 h after protease peptone instillation and injection of both mAbs was 10% of that in saline treatment. It was 15% of that in saline treatment after mAb 60.3 alone and unchanged by mAb HP1/2. At 24 h PMN emigration in response to protease peptone was not prevented by either CD18 or CD49d mAbs, however, when given together emigration was 10% of saline-treated animals. Mononuclear cell emigration to protease peptone was enhanced at 4 h by both CD18 and CD49d mAbs. The CD18 mAb did not augment mononuclear emigration in response to live bacteria. At 24 h, neither the CD18 nor the CD49d mAb alone blocked emigration of mononuclear cells, but the combination of the two did. These studies demonstrate that: (a) early (4 h) PMN emigration is CD11/CD18 dependent; (b) late (24 h) PMN emigration is CD11/CD18 independent; and (c) mononuclear cells utilize the integrins CD18 and CD49d.

Abstract
Expression of adhesion molecules on endothelial cells (EC) can be up-regulated or induced by cytokines. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of IL-4 on both the expression of adhesion molecules on EC and monocyte adhesion to EC. Flow cytometric analysis showed that VCAM-1 expression on EC was up-regulated after stimulation with IL-4 for 24 h, whereas the expression of E-selectin (formerly called endothelial leucocyte adhesion molecule-1 (ELAM-1)) was not enhanced, and that of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) only slightly. The adhesion of monocytes to EC increased to maximum values upon stimulation of EC with IL-4 for 24 h. Coating of monocytes with MoAb against the integrin beta 2-subunit (CD18) significantly inhibited their adhesion to IL-4-stimulated EC; maximal inhibition was found when monocytes were coated with anti-CD18 MoAb in combination with MoAb against CD49d (the alpha-chain of VLA-4), whereas no inhibition was found when monocytes were coated only with MoAb against CD49d. Monocyte adhesion was not significantly inhibited when IL-4-stimulated EC were coated with MoAbs against ICAM-1 or VCAM-1 alone or in combination. Adhesion of monocytes was inhibited to a greater extent when in addition to coating of monocytes with MoAb against CD18 the EC were coated with MoAb against VCAM-1. From these results we conclude that monocytes bind to IL-4-stimulated EC via interaction of CD11/CD18 molecules on the monocytes with an as yet unknown endothelial ligand, and interaction of VLA-4 on monocytes with VCAM-1 on EC.
