Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) is the leading cause of transfusion-associated morbidity and mortality. Activated platelets have important roles in TRALI and CD62P was identified to be an important indicator of platelet activation. However, the precise roles of CD62P in TRALI have remained elusive. The present study assessed CD62P accumulation during storage of apheresis platelet concentrates (A‑Plts) and established a mouse model of TRALI to further investigate the roles of CD62P in TRALI. The results showed that the CD62P concentration in A‑Plts was increased with the storage time. Mice were treated with monoclonal major histocompatibility complex (MHC)‑1 antibody to induce TRALI. The murine model of TRALI was successfully established as evidenced by pulmonary oedema, accompanied by decreased clearance of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), increased pulmonary and systemic inflammation, elevated lung myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as well as increased pulmonary and systemic coagulation in the TRALI group compared with those in the control group. To further determine the role of CD62P in TRALI, mice were treated with anti‑CD62P antibody to knockdown CD62P in vivo. It was found that pulmonary oedema, BALF clearance, pulmonary and systemic inflammation, MPO activity as well as pulmonary and systemic coagulation were decreased in the TRALI + anti‑CD62P antibody group compared with those in the TRALI + isotype antibody group. The present study supported the notion that CD62P is involved in mediating TRALI and may provide an important molecular basis for enhancing the clinical safety and effectiveness of platelet transfusion.

Abstract
Blood platelets foster carcinogenesis. We found that platelets are accumulated in human tumors. P-selectin deficiency and soluble P-selectin abolish platelet deposition within tumors, decreasing secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiogenesis, thereby suppressing tumor growth. Binding of the P-selectin cytoplasmic tail to talin1 triggers the talin1 N-terminal head to interact with the β3 cytoplasmic tail. This activates αIIbβ3 and recruits platelets into tumors. Platelet infiltration into solid tumors occurs through a P-selectin-dependent mechanism.

Abstract
P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) not only functions as an anchor molecule to capture monocytes and other leukocytes to endothelial cells in ischemic tissue by its interaction with P-selectin, but also transduces signals to initiate firm adhesion. Endothelial progenitor cells are derived from monocytes and play a very important role in neovascularization. Transplantation of endothelial progenitor cells is a promising therapeutic strategy to improve treatment of ischemic disease such as myocardial and cerebral infarction; however, its efficacy is now limited by the fact that few of the transplanted cells adhere to and accumulate in the ischemic tissue. In this study we aimed to investigate whether the overexpression of PSGL-1 gene promotes endothelial progenitor cells adhesion activity and explore the underlying mechanisms. We found that after transfection with human PSGL-1 gene, endothelial progenitor cells exhibited higher affinity to activated human umbilical vein endothelial cells or recombined P-selectin/ICAM-1 monolayer. The overexpression of PSGL-1-enhanced beta2-integrin expression on endothelial progenitor cells surface, and this effect was Syk dependent. The specific Syk inhibitor abolished the elevating effect of overexpression of PSGL-1 on surface beta2-integrin expression and the adhesive affinity of endothelial progenitor cells. These results suggested that Syk plays a key role in signal transduction downstream of PSGL-1 in endothelial progenitor cells, and the overexpression of PSGL-1 improves endothelial progenitor cells adhesive properties through enhanced activation of Syk and following integrin activation.

Abstract
Recent findings indicate that dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis is associated with a prothrombogenic phenotype, with P-selectin playing a major role in platelet recruitment. It has been suggested that probiotics may ameliorate colonic inflammation. We therefore investigated how treatment with Lactobacillus reuteri influenced P-selectin expression, leukocyte and platelet endothelial cell interactions, and colitis severity in DSS-treated rats. Rats were divided into the following four groups: nontreated, DSS treated (5% in drinking water for 9 days), L. reuteri, and L. reuteri and DSS treated. The rats were anesthetized with Inactin (120 mg/kg ip), and the dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used to quantify P-selectin expression. Leukocyte-endothelial and platelet-endothelial cell interactions were studied in colonic venules with intravital microscopy. Colitis severity was assessed using a disease activity index. Disease activity index increased, as did the expression of P-selectin in the entire colon after DSS treatment, but both were reduced to control levels with L. reuteri pretreatment. The increased platelet- and leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions after DSS treatment were abolished by pretreatment with L. reuteri. L. reuteri protects against DSS-induced colitis in rats. The protection is associated with reduced P-selectin expression and a decrease in leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions.

Abstract
Smaller-scale evaluations suggest that common genetic variation in candidate genes related to immune function may predispose to the development of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We report an analysis of variants within genes associated with immunity and inflammation and risk of NHL using a panel of 9412 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from 1253 genes in a study of 458 patients with NHL and 484 frequency-matched controls. We modeled haplotypes and risk of NHL, as well as the main effects for all independent SNPs from a gene in multivariate logistic regression models; we separately report results for nonsynonymous (ns) SNPs. In gene-level analyses, the strongest findings (P < or = .001) were for CREB1, FGG, MAP3K5, RIPK3, LSP1, TRAF1, DUSP2, and ITGB3. In nsSNP analyses, the strongest findings (P < or = .01) were for ITGB3 L59P (odds ratio [OR] = 0.66; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.52-0.85), TLR6 V427A (OR = 5.20; CI 1.77-15.3), SELPLG M264V (OR = 3.20; CI 1.48-6.91), UNC84B G671S (OR = 1.50; CI 1.12-2.00), B3GNT3 H328R (OR = 0.74; CI 0.59-0.93), and BAT2 V1883L (OR = 0.64; CI 0.45-0.90). Our results suggest that genetic variation in genes associated with immune response (TRAF1, RIPK3, BAT2, and TLR6), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling (MAP3K5, DUSP2, and CREB1), lymphocyte trafficking and migration (B3GNT3, SELPLG, and LSP1), and coagulation pathways (FGG and ITGB3) may be important in the etiology of NHL, and should be prioritized in replication studies.

Abstract
Selectins mediate leukocyte rolling and prime leukocytes for integrin-mediated leukocyte adhesion. However, neither the in vivo importance of nor the signaling pathway by which selectin-mediated integrin activation occurs has been determined. We report here that P-selectin-deficient mice manifested impaired leukocyte adhesion, which was 'rescued' by soluble P-selectin. Mechanistically, the cytoplasmic domain of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 formed a constitutive complex with Nef-associated factor 1. After binding of P-selectin, Src kinases phosphorylated Nef-associated factor 1, which recruited the phosphoinositide-3-OH kinase p85-p110delta heterodimer and resulted in activation of leukocyte integrins. Inhibition of this signal-transduction pathway diminished the adhesion of leukocytes to capillary venules and suppressed peritoneal infiltration of leukocytes. Our data demonstrate the functional importance of this newly identified signaling pathway mediated by P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1.

Abstract
Fps/Fes and Fer comprise a distinct subfamily of cytoplasmic protein-tyrosine kinases, and have both been implicated in the regulation of innate immunity. Previous studies showed that Fps/Fes-knockout mice were hypersensitive to systemic lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge, and Fer-deficient mice displayed enhanced recruitment of leucocytes in response to localized LPS challenge. We show here for the first time, a role for Fps in the regulation of leucocyte recruitment to areas of inflammation. Using the cremaster muscle intravital microscopy model, we observed increased leucocyte adherence to venules, and increased rates and degrees of transendothelial migration in Fps/Fes-knockout mice relative to wild-type animals subsequent to localized LPS challenge. There was also a decreased vessel wall shear rate in the post-capillary venules of LPS-challenged Fps/Fes-knockout mice, and an increase in neutrophil migration into the peritoneal cavity subsequent to thioglycollate challenge. Using flow cytometry to quantify the expression of surface molecules, we observed prolonged expression of the selectin ligand PSGL-1 on peripheral blood neutrophils from Fps/Fes-knockout mice stimulated ex vivo with LPS. These observations provide important insights into the observed in vivo behaviour of leucocytes in LPS-challenged Fps/Fes-knockout mice and provide evidence that the Fps/Fes kinase plays an important role in the innate immune response.

Abstract
Endothelial and platelet P-selectin (CD62P) and leukocyte integrin alpha(M)beta(2) (CD11bCD18, Mac-1) are cell adhesion molecules essential for host defense and innate immunity. Upon inflammatory challenges, P-selectin binds to PSGL-1 (P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1, CD162) to mediate neutrophil rolling, during which integrins become activated by extracellular stimuli for their firm adhesion in a G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR)-dependent mechanism. Here we show that cross-linking of PSGL-1 by dimeric or multimeric forms of platelet P-selectin, P-selectin receptor-globulin, anti-PSGL-1 mAb and its F(ab')2 induced adhesion of human neutrophils to fibrinogen (Fg) and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54) and triggered a moderate clustering of alpha(M)beta(2), but monomeric forms of soluble P-selectin and anti-PSGL-1 Fab did not. Interestingly, P-selectin did not induce a detectable interleukine-8 (IL-8) secretion (<0.1 ng/ml) in 30 minutes, whereas a high concentration of IL-8 (>50 ng/ml) was required to increase neutrophil adhesion to Fg. P-selectin-induced neutrophil adhesion was significantly inhibited by PP2 (a Src kinase inhibitor), but not by pertussis toxin (PTX; a GPCR inhibitor). Activated platelets also increased neutrophil binding to fibrinogen and triggered tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. Our results indicate that P-selectin-induced integrin activation (Src kinase-dependent) is distinct from that elicited by cytokines, chemokines, chemoattractants (GPCR-dependent), suggesting that these two signal transduction pathways may cooperate for maximal activation of leukocyte integrins.

Abstract
The recent molecular characterization and sequencing of equine P-selectin (ePsel), and its glycoprotein ligand, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), have provided the tools for further investigation into their role in leukocyte trafficking. Here, we report the generation of a genetically engineered chimeric protein (ePsel-IgG) in which the equine P-selectin lectin and epithelial growth factor (EGF) domains were covalently linked to the equine IgG1 heavy chain constant region. The soluble ePsel-IgG was observed to bind to equine monocytes by confocal microscopy and flow cytometry. Furthermore, equine monocytes bound to immobilized ePsel-IgG in a time course and dose dependent manner. Not only did ePsel-IgG act as an adhesion molecule, it was also found to activate ERK1/2 kinase and induce IL-8 mRNA expression in equine monocytes. That all of the aforementioned ePsel-IgG-induced cell binding and cell signaling were abolished by the addition of EDTA, suggested that ePsel-IgG chimera mediated events occurred via the P-selectin ligand, PSGL-1. We were able to demonstrate that 78% of equine monocytes cross-reacted with anti-human HECA-452 antibody, which recognizes the sialy-Lewis X (sLex) epitope, a well-known carbohydrate binding site on human PSGL-1. Pre-incubation of equine PBMC with neuraminidase or O-sialoglycoprotein endopeptidase (OSGP) reduced ePsel-IgG monocyte binding to 36% or 60%, respectively. Taken together, these data suggest that there might be two ligand recognition sites on P-selectin, one of which recognizes sLex and another which recognizes P-selectin ligand core protein. The ePsel-IgG chimera can be a useful as a reagent for further studies on the role of equine P-selectin and signal transduction in inflammatory events in horse.

Abstract
Human monocytes adhere to activated platelets, resulting in the formation of platelet-monocyte complexes (PMC). Complex formation depends on the interaction between platelet-displayed P-selectin and the specific ligand for P-selectin on leukocytes, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1). We have recently shown that monocytes within PMC have increased adhesive capacity to the activated endothelium. To better understand the effect of platelet binding on the capacity of monocytes to adhere to activated endothelium, the P-selectin-PSGL-1 interaction-induced changes in integrin functionality were studied. The binding of platelets to monocytes via P-selectin-PSGL-1 interactions was shown to increase expression and activity of alpha4beta1 and alphaMbeta2integrin, with a concomitant decrease in L-selectin expression. Furthermore, the binding of platelets to monocytes resulted in increased monocyte adhesion to intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and fibronectin. Platelet binding was also responsible for an increase in monocyte transendothelial migration. Similar effects were observed after engagement of PSGL-1 with specific antibodies or with P-selectin immunoglobulin protein. Our data suggest that platelets, by binding via P-selectin to PSGL-1 on monocytes, induce up-regulation and activation of beta1 and beta2integrins and increased adhesion of monocytes to activated endothelium. Hence, monocytes within PMC are in a higher state of activation and may have, therefore, an increased atherogenic capacity.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal injury usually starts in the superficial mucosa. We investigated whether leukocyte-endothelial interactions were greater in the gastrointestinal mucosa than the submucosa and muscularis in control tissue and after upregulation of adhesion molecules with endotoxin and after chemical insult with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Inactin-anesthetized rats were given either endotoxin, flurbiprofen, or nitric oxide (NO)-flurbiprofen, after which ICAM-1 and P-selectin expression was measured with the dual-label antibody technique. Leukocyte-endothelial interactions in the different gastric layers were assessed after endotoxin using intravital microscopy. Endotoxin caused a two- to threefold increase in ICAM-1 expression in the stomach and duodenum. There was, however, a gradient in expression across the gut wall with the level of expression in the superficial mucosa (per g) being only 10-25% of that in the deeper layers in both control and endotoxin-treated animals. Constituitive expression of P-selectin in control animals was barely detectable. Endotoxin caused a modest increase in mucosal P-selectin but a very significant increase in the deeper layers. Flurbiprofen caused a slight upregulation of ICAM-1 in the gastric mucosa and duodenum, whereas NO-flurbiprofen had no affect on expression. Intravital microscopy revealed no adhesion and virtually no leukocyte rolling in the vessels of the gastric mucosa despite endotoxin treatment. There was, however, some adhesion and significant leukocyte rolling in the submucosa and muscularis. Thus the superficial gastric and duodenal mucosal microcirculations have a much lower density of ICAM-1 and P-selectin and less leukocyte-endothelial interactions than occurs in the deeper layers of the gut wall even during stimulated upregulation with endotoxin.

PURPOSE To analyze the therapeutic value of Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) supplementation in an experimental model of radiation-induced intestinal inflammation and explore its mechanistic effects. METHODS AND MATERIALS Mice were subjected to abdominal irradiation with 10 Gy or sham irradiation and studied 24 or 72 hours after radiation. Groups of mice were treated with 0.1, 4, or 6 mg/kg/day of SOD1 or vehicle. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions in intestinal venules were assessed by intravital microscopy. Endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression was determined with radiolabeled antibodies. Effects of SOD1 on histologic damage and levels of lipid hydroperoxides were also measured. RESULTS A significant increase in the flux of rolling leukocytes and number of firmly adherent leukocytes in intestinal venules was observed at 24 and 72 hours after irradiation. Treatment with SOD1 had no effect on leukocyte rolling but significantly and dose-dependently decreased firm leukocyte adhesion to intestinal venules. Treatment with SOD1 at doses that reduced leukocyte recruitment abrogated the increase in hydroperoxides in intestinal tissue and ICAM-1 upregulation in intestinal endothelial cells. The inflammatory score, but not a combined histology damage score, was also significantly reduced by SOD1. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with SOD1 decreases oxidative stress and adhesion molecule upregulation in response to abdominal irradiation. This is associated with an attenuation of the radiation-induced intestinal inflammatory response.

Abstract
Heme oxygenase (HO) modulates the accumulation of leukocytes within the liver during the early stages of a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), but the anti-inflammatory mechanism(s) remain to be tested. The influence of HO on the adhesion molecule expression within the liver and on circulating leukocytes was assessed. In addition, the effect of HO and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on the liver microcirculation was tested. Mice were subjected to 1 h bilateral hindlimb ischemia followed by 3 h of reperfusion, at which time blood samples and the liver were harvested and adhesion molecule expression determined (ICAM-1, CD49d and CD11b). Direct measures of sinusoidal diameter and estimates of volumetric blood flow were obtained using intravital microscopy. HO was specifically induced and inhibited by hemin and chromium mesoporphyrin (CrMP), respectively, whereas NOS was inhibited by N-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME). ICAM-1 expression was increased following hindlimb ischemia-reperfusion. Hemin caused only a modest, but significant decrease in ICAM-1 expression, whereas inhibition of HO had no effect. However, HO inhibition significantly reduced sinusoidal diameters and volumetric flow and such vessels were correlated with significantly increased numbers of stationary leukocytes. Inhibition of NOS had no effect on sinusoidal diameter or volumetric flow. In conclusion, the anti-inflammatory benefits afforded by HO activity within the liver appear to involve the control of sinusoidal diameter and volumetric blood flow rather than altered adhesion molecule expression during the early stages of SIRS.

Abstract
AbstractP-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1, CD162) and integrin αMβ2 (Mac-1, CD11bCD18) are leukocyte adhesion molecules essential for innate immunity and inflammation. The interaction of PSGL-1 with P-selectin (CD62P) mediates tethering, rolling, and weak adhesion of leukocytes, during which they become sufficiently activated in situ by locally released or displayed cytokines and chemoattractants for integrin-mediated firm adhesion. However, communication between P-selectin and the integrin, whether P-selectin can trigger β2-integrin activation, remains controversial. We found that P-selectin immunoglobulin chimera and PSGL-1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) increased adhesion of human neutrophils to immobilized, but not soluble, fibrinogen. This intermediate state of neutrophil adhesion was defined by moderate clustering of integrin αMβ2, no increase in CBRM1/5 (a mAb specific for the activation epitope on the αM subunit) recognition, and no increase in surface expression of αMβ2, whereas phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) induced extensive changes in these 3 parameters. Furthermore, platelet-activating factor or interleukin 8 acted in concert with P-selectin for further enhancing the activation of αMβ2. We thus propose a model in which P-selectin induces an intermediate state of integrin activation and then cooperates with other extracellular stimuli to support maximal adhesion of human neutrophils.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) activity increases in the brain during the first day after focal ischemia and might be involved in the pathogenesis of tissue damage. We previously showed MMP-9 in the extracellular space of brain parenchyma along with neutrophil recruitment after ischemia. In the present study, we tested whether neutrophils were a direct source of enhanced MMP-9 in the ischemic brain. Neutrophil infiltration was prevented either by injecting an antibody against ICAM-1, which abrogates neutrophil adhesion to the endothelial vessel wall, or by inducing neutropenia. One-hour intraluminal middle cerebral artery occlusion with reperfusion was induced, and studies were performed at 24 hours. Circulating neutrophils expressed 95-kDa MMP-9 and dimers, and infiltrated neutrophils stained positive for MMP-9. The expression of MMP-9 (mainly 95-kDa proform and dimers and, to a lesser extent, 88-kDa form) increased in brain after ischemia/reperfusion. Treatments preventing neutrophil infiltration failed to preclude the ischemia-induced increase in 88-kDa MMP-9 form and gelatinase activity in neurons and blood vessels. However, these treatments prevented the major increase in 95-kDa MMP-9 form and dimers. We conclude that neutrophil infiltration highly contributes to enhanced MMP-9 in the ischemic brain by releasing MMP-9 proform, which might participate in the tissular inflammatory reaction.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cell adhesion molecules mediate leukocyte recruitment into the irradiated organs; modulation of this process may protect from radiation damage. Our objective was to characterize the requirement for intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) in intestinal inflammatory response after abdominal irradiation. METHODS AND MATERIALS Endothelial ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression was determined using radiolabeled antibodies in mice 24 h and 14 days after irradiation with 10 Gy, or sham radiation. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions in intestinal venules were assessed using intravital microscopy, and the function of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in this process by using blocking antibodies and ICAM-1(-/-) mice. RESULTS The number of adherent leukocytes significantly increased 24 h after irradiation and remained elevated at 14 days. Treatment with anti-ICAM-1 antibodies and ICAM-1 genetic deficiency significantly reduced leukocyte adhesion 24 h after irradiation. At 14 days after irradiation, both wild-type and ICAM-1(-/-) mice had an upregulation of VCAM-1, expression, and VCAM-1 immunoneutralization, but not ICAM-1 immunoneutralization, significantly reduced leukocyte adhesion. In ICAM-1(-/-) mice, regeneration of the intestinal epithelium was enhanced relative to wild-type mice. CONCLUSIONS ICAM-1 plays a key role in leukocyte recruitment at early time points after abdominal irradiation, whereas VCAM-1 is the main molecular determinant of leukocyte recruitment at late time points.

Abstract
Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is the anticoagulant recommended for full blood counts, citrate is recommended for coagulation and platelet studies, and citrate-theophylline-adenosine-dipyridamole (CTAD) inhibits platelet activation. Because the combination of EDTA and CTAD (E/C) is better than EDTA or CTAD alone for measuring platelet parameters on the ADVIA 120 Haematology System, we investigated whether it also offers advantages for the flow cytometric assessment of platelet and/or neutrophil activation and platelet-leucocyte aggregate formation ex vivo. Blood from healthy subjects was collected into E/C or citrate, kept at room temperature or at 4 degrees C, and analysed 0 to 360 min later in the ADVIA 120 and by immunofluorescent flow cytometry. Platelet count, mean platelet volume, number of platelet clumps, mean platelet component, numbers of CD62P(+) platelets and platelet-leucocyte aggregates, and expression of CD11b on neutrophils changed little over 360 min in blood with E/C kept at 4 degrees C. In contrast, one or more parameter changed when blood was kept with E/C at ambient temperature or with citrate at either temperature. The use of E/C in in vitro and in vivo studies is illustrated. Platelet and neutrophil activation status ex vivo can be reliably assessed if blood is collected into E/C, held at 4 degrees C, and analysed within 6 h.

Abstract
This study investigates possible mechanisms behind the reduced gastrointestinal ulcerogenicity of nitric oxide (NO)-flurbiprofen compared with flurbiprofen. The duodenal mucosa of Inactin-anaesthetised rats was exteriorized for intravital microscopy. Blood flow was measured with laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF), mucus thickness with micropipettes, ICAM-1 and P-selectin expression with dual-labeled antibody technique, and mucosal integrity by (51)Cr-EDTA permeability. Exposure of the duodenum to flurbiprofen (1.0 mg/ml) for 90 min significantly reduced LDF to 70 +/- 4%, whereas NO-flurbiprofen (1.3 mg/ml) had no significant effect. Mucus accumulation after 60-min exposure was 75 +/- 23 microm (control), -1 +/- 17 microm (flurbiprofen), and 104 +/- 35 microm (NO-flurbiprofen). Mucosal permeability to (51)Cr-EDTA was unchanged in the control and NO-flurbiprofen groups but increased significantly from 1.0 +/- 0.2 to 3.7 +/- 0.7 microl x min(-1) x g(-1) after 90-min exposure to flurbiprofen. Expression of ICAM-1 was significantly increased after oral flurbiprofen but not by NO-flurbiprofen. Positive effects of NO-flurbiprofen compared with flurbiprofen on mucus formation, blood flow, and adhesion molecule expression likely contribute to the reduced mucosal injury observed with NO-flurbiprofen.

Abstract
Stimulated endothelial cells and activated platelets express P-selectin, which reacts with P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) for leukocyte rolling on the stimulated endothelial cells and heterotypic aggregation of the activated platelets on leukocytes. P-selectin also binds to several cancer cells in vitro and promotes the growth and metastasis of human colon carcinoma in vivo. The P-selectin/PSGL-1 interaction requires tyrosine sulfation. However, it is unknown whether sulfation is necessary for P-selectin binding to somatic cancer cells. In this study, we show that P-selectin mediated adhesion of Acc-M cells, a cell line derived from a human adenoid cystic carcinoma of salivary gland. These cells had a moderate expression of heparan sulfate-like proteoglycans, but had no detectable expressions of PSGL-1, CD24, Lewis(x), and sialyl Lewis(x). Treatment with sodium chlorate (a sulfation biosynthesis inhibitor), but not 4-methylumbelliferyl-beta-D-xyloside (a proteoglycan biosynthesis inhibitor) or heparinases, reduced adhesion of these cells to P-selectin. Sodium chlorate also inhibited the P-selectin precipitation of the 160-, 54-, and 36-kDa molecules from the cell surface of Acc-M cells. Furthermore, P-selectin could bind to human breast carcinoma ZR-75-30 cells in a sulfation-dependent manner. Our results thus indicate that sulfation is essential for adhesion of nonblood-borne, epithelial-like human cancer cells to P-selectin.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Adhesive interactions between tumor cell surface receptors and endothelial cell adhesion molecules are thought to contribute to tumor cell arrest and extravasation during hematogenous metastasis. Recent reports suggest that melanoma cell integrin alpha4beta1 (very late antigen-4, VLA-4) interaction with the inducible cell adhesion molecule, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), is critical for tumor cell arrest. However, no information is available regarding microvascular VCAM-1 expression during spontaneous melanoma metastasis. The objectives of this study were to evaluate VCAM-1 expression in pulmonary and extrapulmonary vascular beds during melanoma progression, and to determine whether there is an organ-specific profile for VCAM-1 expression which corresponds with the clinical pattern of melanoma metastasis. METHODS The dual-radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (mAb) technique for quantification of VCAM-1 in different vascular beds was applied to a physiological model of melanoma (B16-BL6) metastasis. Measurements of VCAM-1 were obtained when primary tumors reached 5 mm in size, and every 7 days following removal of the primary lesion. Histological examinations were performed, and mice were placed into 2 groups, based on the presence (+colonies) or absence (-colonies) of pulmonary metastases. VCAM-1 measurements obtained from several organ systems were then compared between these 2 groups of mice. Localization of VCAM-1 was achieved through immunohistochemical staining of tissues. Plasma collected from each experimental animal, as well as melanoma-conditioned media, was assayed to determine levels of the cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1alpha (IL-1alpha). RESULTS Data collected from the dual-radiolabeled mAb technique indicate that 3 weeks following removal of the primary lesion, there is a tendency for VCAM-1 expression to increase in cardiac, hepatic, and cerebral vascular beds. Four weeks following primary resection, when pulmonary metastatic burden was maximal, VCAM-1 was significantly upregulated in each of these vascular beds. Results obtained from the lung indicate that VCAM-1 remains unchanged in pulmonary vessels at all time points examined. Immunohistochemical staining of heart and brain support the radiolabeled mAb measurements, and reveals that these organs exhibit an inflammatory phenotype in mice with heavy pulmonary tumor burden. Furthermore, 25% of these mice had histological evidence of melanoma metastases in heart and brain. Transplantation of liver fragments from mice with advanced pulmonary metastases into subcutaneous tissue of donor mice resulted in the formation of melanotic outgrowths. Plasma levels of the cytokines TNF-alpha and IL-1alpha were negligible in both groups of mice. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that upregulation of VCAM-1 is not a prerequisite for the formation of pulmonary metastases during spontaneous melanoma metastases. However, once lung metastases become well established, organ-specific increases in VCAM-1 expression become apparent. Furthermore, these organ-specific increments in VCAM-1 expression correspond with documented clinical patterns of melanoma metastasis. The enhanced expression of VCAM-1 is independent of systemic levels of TNF-alpha and IL-1alpha, but may be the result of melanoma-induced alterations at the local level, as we found evidence of melanoma cell occupation in heart, brain, and liver in pulmonary metastases-bearing mice.

Abstract
P-selectin-dependent leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion has been implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in several vascular beds, including the gut. Because platelet-endothelial (P/E) cell adhesion also occurs in postischemic venules, the possibility exists that the expression of P-selectin on the surface of platelets that are adherent to venular endothelial cells may mediate the leukocyte recruitment elicited by I/R. P-selectin expression [dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) technique] and neutrophil accumulation [myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity] were measured in the postischemic small intestine of untreated rats and rats treated with either antiplatelet serum (APS) or MAbs directed against either P-selectin, GPIIb/IIIa, or fibrinogen. The increases in P-selectin expression and tissue MPO normally elicited by I/R were significantly attenuated in the different treatment groups, suggesting that I/R-induced neutrophil recruitment is a platelet-dependent, P-selectin-mediated process. Intravital microscopy was then employed to examine this process relative to leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion in postischemic rat mesenteric venules. The recruitment of adherent and emigrated leukocytes after I/R was attenuated by pretreatment with a MAb against, either P-selectin, GPIIb/IIIa, or fibrinogen, as well as an Arg-Gly-Asp peptide. Whereas thrombocytopenia greatly blunted leukocyte emigration, it did not alter the leukocyte adherence response to I/R. These findings suggest that platelet-associated P-selectin contributes to the accumulation of leukocytes in postischemic tissue via a mechanism that alters transendothelial leukocyte migration.

Abstract
The malarial protein Plasmodium falciparum erythrocyte membrane protein 1 (PfEMP1) is a parasite protein that is exported to the surface of the infected erythrocyte, where it is inserted into the red cell cytoskeleton in the second half of the parasite life cycle. The surface expression of PfEMP1 coincides with the occurrence of the adhesion of infected erythrocytes to vascular endothelium. This protein has been shown to interact with CD36, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and chondroitin sulfate A (CSA). In this study, it is demonstrated by affinity purification and western blot analysis that PfEMP1 also functions as a cell surface ligand for P-selectin, an adhesion molecule that has been shown to mediate the rolling of infected erythrocytes under physiologic flow conditions, leading to a significant increase in adhesion to CD36 on activated platelets and microvascular endothelium.

P-selectin (CD62P) is a cell adhesion molecule expressed on stimulated endothelial cells and on activated platelets. It interacts with PSGL-1 (P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1; CD162) on leukocytes and mediates recruitment of leukocytes during inflammation. P-selectin also binds to several types of cancer cells in vitro and facilitates growth and metastasis of colon carcinoma in vivo. Here we show that P-selectin, but not E-selectin, binds to NCI-H345 cells, a cell line derived from a human small cell lung cancer. EDTA or P7 (a leukocyte adhesion blocking mAb to P-selectin), but not PL5 (a leukocyte adhesion blocking mAb to PSGL-1), can inhibit this binding. P-selectin affinity chromatography can precipitate a approximately 110-kDa major band and a approximately 220-kDa minor band from [3H]-glucosamine-labeled NCI-H345 cells. No expression of PSGL-1 protein and mRNA can be detected in NCI-H345 cells. Taken together, these results suggest that NCI-H345 cells express glycoprotein ligands for P-selectin that are distinct from leukocyte PSGL-1.

Abstract
The aims of our study were to characterize the dose- and time-dependent changes in endothelial P-selectin expression and the role of this adhesion molecule as a mediator of radiation-induced inflammation. For that purpose, endothelial P-selectin expression was measured by the radiolabeled antibody technique in control and irradiated mice at 2, 6, and 24 hr following abdominal irradiation with 4 or 10 Gy; leukocyte endothelial cell interactions were assessed using intravital microscopy in intestinal venules following irradiation at the aforementioned doses and times in C57BL/6 and P-selectin-deficient mice. In wild-type mice, radiation induced a time- and dose-dependent up-regulation of P-selectin and a significant increase in the flux of rolling leukocytes 2 hr after irradiation. Irradiation induced a significant increase in leukocyte adhesion that was dose-dependent. Following irradiation, P-selectin-deficient mice did not show any increase in leukocyte rolling but did demonstrate a response in leukocyte adhesion similar to that of the wild-type mice. Radiation-induced dose-dependent histological inflammatory damage that did not differ between P-selectin-deficient and wild-type mice. We conclude that P-selectin is up-regulated following irradiation and is a key molecular determinant of leukocyte rolling but not leukocyte adhesion in this inflammatory condition. Therefore, isolated neutralization of this adhesion molecule is not an effective means for preventing radiation-induced inflammation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The role of selectins in experimental colitis remains unknown. The aims of this study were to characterize the time-course expression of selectins in trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis, the functional role of selectins in colonic leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions, and the therapeutic usefulness of selectin blockade in this model. METHODS Control and TNBS-induced colitic rats were studied. Expression of P- and E-selectin was assessed by the radiolabeled antibody technique, and L-selectin by flow cytometry. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions were studied in colonic venules by using intravital microscopy under basal conditions and after P-, E-, or L-selectin immunoblockade. Additional groups of animals were treated with anti-P-selectin antibody, a nonbinding antibody, or dexamethasone, for 7 days. RESULTS P-selectin and E-selectin expression were markedly up-regulated in colitic rats. Increased leukocyte rolling was abrogated by anti-P-selectin, but only attenuated by anti-E- or anti-L-selectin antibodies. Only pretreatment with anti-P- selectin decreased leukocyte adhesion. Animals chronically treated with dexamethasone, but not with anti- P-selectin, had significantly lower macroscopic and histologic damage scores, colon weight, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity than those treated with nonbinding antibody. CONCLUSIONS P-selectin plays a key role on leukocyte rolling and its blockade attenuates leukocyte adhesion in TNBS-induced colitis. However, treatment with an anti-P-selectin antibody does not significantly improve colitis.

Abstract
Adhesion molecules have been implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases. We investigated their expression and contribution to leukocyte recruitment in experimental intestinal inflammation. Ileitis was induced in Sprague-Dawley rats by two injections of indomethacin (7.5 mg/kg), given 24 h apart. Endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression was quantified using the dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique and Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18) expression on leukocytes by flow cytometry. Leukocyte infiltration was monitored by tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. The first indomethacin injection induced a time- and site-dependent increase of ICAM-1 expression in ileal mucosa and muscularis. The second injection resulted in a reduction of ICAM-1 expression below constitutive levels whereas Mac-1 was upregulated. MPO changes paralleled lesion development over 48 h. ICAM-1 and MPO values were correlated for the first 24 h. Immunoneutralization of either ICAM-1 or Mac-1 attenuated mucosal injury. We conclude that (i) indomethacin-induced ileitis is associated with a temporally disassociated upregulation of ICAM-1 and (ii) despite a reduction in ICAM-1 after 24 h, ICAM-1, in concert with Mac-1, contributes to mucosal injury and leukocyte infiltration elicited by indomethacin.

Abstract
PSGL-1, a specific ligand for P-, E- and L-selectin, was isolated from in vivo [3H]-glucosamine labeled HL-60 cells by a combination of wheat germ agglutinin-agarose and P- or E-selectin-agarose chromatography. N-linked oligosaccharides were released from the purified, denatured ligand molecule by peptide: N-glycosidase F treatment and, following separation by Sephacryl S-200 chromatography, partially characterized using lectin, ion-exchange and size-exclusion chromatography in combination with glycosidase digestions. The data obtained suggest that the N-glycans on PSGL-1 are predominantly core-fucosylated, multiantennary complex type structures with extended, poly-N-acetyllactosamine containing outer chains. A portion of the outer chains appears to be substituted with fucose indicating that the N-glycans, in addition to the O-glycans on PSGL-1, may be involved in selectin binding.

Abstract
Risk factors for cardiovascular disease have been shown to exacerbate the inflammatory response and microvascular dysfunction that is normally associated with ischemia-reperfusion. The objective of this study was to determine whether hypercholesterolemia and/or hypertension alter I/R-induced expression of P-selectin in the intestinal vasculature. Male control and hypertensive (HTN) rats were placed on either a normal diet or high cholesterol diet (HCD) for at least 3 weeks resulting in hypercholesterolemia (HC). Ischemia was induced by occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery for 15 min, followed by either 30 min or 4 h of reperfusion. The dual radiolabeled antibody technique was used to quantify the rapid (30 min) and transcription-dependent (4 h) expression of P-selectin. Tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) was used to quantify neutrophil infiltration. The constitutive (basal) expression of P-selectin did not differ among the experimental groups. Although I/R significantly increased P-selectin expression in control, HC, and HTN+HC, P-selectin expression did not increase in HTN. The HC group exhibited the largest increments in P-selectin expression and tissue MPO after I/R. The increment in P-selectin expression was not significantly attenuated in HC rats that were rendered thrombocytopenic with anti-platelet serum. Treatment with an anti-P-selectin antibody largely prevented the exaggerated MPO increase noted in HC. These findings indicate that hypercholesterolemia in contrast to hypertension enhances the expression of P-selectin in the postischemic intestinal vasculature.

Abstract
Although bacterial endotoxins [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)] can confer tissue resistance to subsequent inflammatory insults, the mechanisms that underlie this LPS-preconditioning (LPS-PC) response remain poorly defined. The dual-radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used to examine whether LPS-PC alters the upregulation (protein) of E- and P-selectins after subsequent LPS challenge. In the gut of wild-type (C57BL/6J) mice, LPS-PC was associated with a reduction in E- (66%) and P-selectin (33%) expression. A similar reduction in E-selectin expression was observed in mutant mice that were genetically deficient in either the endothelial or inducible isoform of nitric oxide synthase or that overexpressed the human gene for Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase. Severe combined immunodeficient mice, genetically devoid of lymphocytes, did exhibit partial inhibition of the LPS-PC response. We conclude that 1) LPS-PC can be demonstrated for E- and P-selectins in some vascular beds (e.g., gut), 2) the mechanism(s) underlying this blunted selectin response does not include a major role for either nitric oxide and superoxide, and 3) circulating lymphocytes may contribute to the LPS-PC response.

Abstract
Quantitative estimates of endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression have revealed that some adhesion molecules [e.g., intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)] are abundantly expressed in different vascular beds under normal conditions. The objective of this study was to determine whether the enteric microflora contribute to the constitutive expression of ICAM-1 and other endothelial cell adhesion molecules in the gastrointestinal tract and other regional vascular beds. The dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used to measure endothelial expression of ICAM-1, ICAM-2, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and E-selectin in conventional, germ-free mice and germ-free mice receiving the cecal contents of conventional mice to reestablish the enteric microflora (total association). Constitutive ICAM-1 expression was significantly lower in the splanchnic organs (pancreas, stomach, small and large intestine, mesentery, and liver), kidneys, skeletal muscle, and skin of germ-free mice compared with their conventional counterparts. These differences were abolished after total association of germ-free mice with the indigenous gastrointestinal flora. The expression of ICAM-2, VCAM-1, and E-selectin in the various tissues studied did not differ between conventional and germ-free mice. These findings indicate that the indigenous gastrointestinal microflora are responsible for a significant proportion of the basal ICAM-1 expression detected in both intestinal and extraintestinal tissues.

Abstract
Selectins, a family of cell adhesion molecules, bind to sialylated and fucosylated carbohydrates, such as sialyl Lewisx (SLex) and its derivatives, as their minimal recognition motif. Here we report that P-selectin bound to human malignant melanoma A375 cells and mediated their adhesion under flow. However, probing with a specific Ab failed to detect any apparent expression of SLex. This finding was bolstered by reduced expression of alpha-1,3-fucosyltransferase VII mRNA and by absence of the cell surface expression of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1. Instead, they expressed heparan sulfate-like proteoglycans on their cell surfaces. Treatment with beta-d -xyloside (a proteoglycan biosynthesis inhibitor) or heparinases could reduce the binding of these cells to P-selectin. In the competition assays, heparin, but not other proteoglycans, could abolish the P-selectin recognition. Further, we found that P-selectin could bind specifically to human tongue squamous cancer Tca-8113 cells, which had negative staining of SLex but positive staining of heparan sulfates. Both beta-d -xyloside and heparinases could reduce the binding of P-selectin to Tca-8113 cells. Our results thus indicate that heparan sulfate-like proteoglycans can mediate adhesion of certain types of non-blood borne, "epithelial-like" human cancer cells to P-selectin.

Abstract
Monolayers of cultured endothelial cells exposed to hypoxia-reoxygenation exhibit a transcription-dependent increase in E-selectin expression and E-selectin-dependent neutrophil-endothelial cell adhesion. The overall objectives of this study were 1) to determine whether ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) promotes upregulation of E-selectin in vivo; 2) if so, to define the mediators of this response; and 3) to assess the contribution of E-selectin to I/R-induced neutrophil recruitment. The dual-radiolabeled monoclonal antibody (MAb) technique was used to measure E-selectin expression in the intestinal vasculature. Ischemia was induced by complete occlusion (30-60 min) of the superior mesenteric artery followed by 3-24 h of reperfusion. Increasing durations of ischemia elicited progressively increasing (2- to 5-fold) levels of E-selectin expression, with the peak response noted after 45 min of ischemia and 5 h of reperfusion. Subsequent experiments revealed that I/R-induced increase in E-selectin expression (at 5 h) is significantly blunted in transgenic mice that overexpress Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase or by treatment of wild-type mice with either a blocking antibody against tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha or an inhibitor of nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation (PS341). Administration of an E-selectin-specific MAb dramatically reduced I/R-induced recruitment of neutrophils in the intestine. These findings suggest that superoxide and TNF-alpha mediate gut I/R-induced E-selectin expression via an NF-kappaB-dependent mechanism; this upregulation of E-selectin contributes significantly to I/R-induced neutrophil recruitment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory cells contribute to the acute and sub-acute sequelae of radiation therapy. Tepoxalin, an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase and 5-lipoxygenase that suppresses NF-kappaB activation, has potent anti-inflammatory activity. AIMS To assess the effects of tepoxalin on radiation-induced inflammatory damage, and determine its mechanisms of action. METHODS Leucocyte rolling, adhesion and emigration, and albumin leakage were determined by intra-vital microscopy in rat mesenteric venules. NF-kappaB activation was measured by electrophoretic mobility shift assays, and endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression by the radiolabelled antibody technique. Groups of irradiated rats were treated with tepoxalin, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, zileuton (lipoxygenase inhibitor), or vehicle. RESULTS Irradiated animals had a marked increase in the number of rolling, adherent and emigrated leucocytes in mesenteric venules, and in microvascular permeability. Tepoxalin prevented leucocyte adhesion and the increase in permeability after radiation. Tepoxalin did not inhibit radiation-induced NF-kappaB activation or intercellular adhesion molecule-1 up-regulation, while N-acetyl-L-cysteine, which attenuated NF-kappaB activation, had no effect on leucocyte recruitment. In contrast, tepoxalin inhibited the increase in leukotriene B4 levels after radiation, and the anti-inflammatory effects of the drug were mimicked by zileuton. CONCLUSIONS Tepoxalin affords significant protection against radiation-induced inflammation and microvascular dysfunction in splanchnic organs through a mechanism dependent on leukotriene synthesis inhibition.

Abstract
Heme oxygenase (HO) catalyzes the degradation of heme to biliverdin, iron, and CO. The inducible isoform (HO-1) has been implicated as a modulator of the inflammatory response. HO-1 activity can be induced by hemin and inhibited with zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPP). Using these reagents, we assessed the possibility that HO-1 modulates the inflammatory response by altering the expression of endothelial cell adhesion molecules. Endotoxin (lipopolysaccharide, LPS)-induced expression of P- and E-selectin expression was quantified in different vascular beds of the rat using the dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique. Pretreatment with hemin attenuated, whereas ZnPP treatment exacerbated, the increased selectin expression normally elicited by LPS. Biliverdin, at an equimolar dosage, was as effective as hemin in attenuating LPS-induced selectin expression in the lung, kidneys, liver, and intestines. These findings indicate that the anti-inflammatory properties of HO-1 may be related to an inhibitory action of P- and E-selectin expression in the vasculature. Biliverdin (or its metabolite, bilirubin), rather than CO, may account for this action of HO-1 on endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression.

Abstract
The objectives of this study were to determine 1) the changes in endothelial cell adhesion molecule expression that occur in a clinically relevant model of sepsis and 2) the dependence of these changes on endotoxin [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)]. The dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used to quantify the expression of E- and P-selectin in LPS-sensitive (C3HeB/FeJ) and LPS-insensitive (C3H/HeJ) mice that were subjected to acute peritonitis by cecal ligation and perforation (CLP). At 6 h after CLP, the expression of both E- and P-selectin was increased in the gut (mesentery, pancreas, and small and large bowel) compared with the sham-operated and/or control animals, with a more marked response noted in LPS-insensitive mice. The lung also exhibited an increased P-selectin expression in both mouse strains. An accumulation of granulocytes, assessed using tissue myeloperoxidase activity, was noted in the lung and intestine of LPS-sensitive but not LPS-insensitive mice exposed to CLP. These results indicate that the CLP model of sepsis is associated with an upregulation of endothelial selectins in the gut vasculature and that enteric LPS does not contribute to this endothelial cell activation response.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether expression of P- and E-selectin molecules is associated with the development of systemic organ manifestations in acute pancreatitis (AP). SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Overproduction of inflammatory cytokines in AP induces expression of adhesion molecules, which may lead to increased leukocytic infiltration and tissue damage. Understanding the temporal expression of these molecules could afford better measures for therapeutic intervention. METHODS Acute pancreatitis was induced in 30-day-old female C57/ bI/6J mice by feeding a choline-deficient/ethionine-supplemented diet (n = 95). Mice were divided into three groups. Group I (n = 35) was used to study the biochemical and histologic manifestations of AP and to evaluate the neutrophilic infiltration by myeloperoxidase activity and immunofluorescence. Groups II (n = 35) and III (n = 25) were used to evaluate expression of P- and E-selectin by the dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique. RESULTS Biochemical and histologic evidence of AP developed in all mice. The inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-alpha gradually increased in serum as early as 18 hours, reaching more than 800-fold background levels by 72 hours. Biphasic P-selectin expression in the lung was seen with peaks at 24 and 48 hours; E-selectin expression peaked at 48 hours. CD18-positive leukocytes and increased myeloperoxidase activity in the lung were demonstrated at 24 hours, correlating with the onset of selectin upregulation. Histologic scoring of lung tissue demonstrated mild damage at 24 hours, with progressive injury occurring from 48 to 72 hours. CONCLUSIONS In AP, the production of inflammatory cytokines precedes up-regulation of P- and E-selectin, whose expression coincided with the increased infiltration of CD18-positive cells and neutrophil sequestration in lung tissue. Temporally, these events correlate with evidence of histologic pulmonary injury and underscore the role of adhesion molecules as mediators of pathophysiologic events. This mechanistic pathway may afford novel therapeutic interventions in clinical disease by using blocking agents to ameliorate the systemic manifestations of AP.

Abstract
PURPOSE The goal of this study was to assess the effects of two clinically relevant radiation dose-rates on endothelial adhesion molecule expression, inflammatory response, and microvascular dysfunction. METHODS AND MATERIALS Rats were irradiated with 10 Gy at low (0.9 Gy/min) or high (3 Gy/min) dose-rates. Control animals received sham irradiation. Leukocyte rolling, adhesion, emigration, and microvascular permeability were assessed in mesenteric venules by intravital microscopy 6 hours after irradiation. P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression were measured using radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS Low dose-rate (LDR) abdominal irradiation increased leukocyte adhesion compared with sham-irradiated animals, whereas high dose-rate (HDR) irradiation resulted in enhanced leukocyte rolling, adhesion, and emigration, compared with the LDR or with sham-irradiated rats. Both dose-rates increased microvascular permeability, although this effect was significantly greater after radiation with the high (8-fold) than the low (5-fold) dose-rate. HDR radiation induced significantly larger increments in P-selectin expression in splanchnic organs than LDR, whereas in most organs ICAM-1 expression was only upregulated by the HDR. Blockade of ICAM-1, but not P-selectin, abrogated leukocyte adhesion at both dose-rates. CONCLUSIONS The magnitude of upregulation of endothelial adhesion molecules, leukocyte recruitment, and endothelial barrier dysfunction elicited by radiation therapy is dependent on the dose-rate at which the radiation is delivered.

Abstract
Coordinated adhesive interactions between lymphocyte receptors and endothelial cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are a prerequisite for effector cell entry into tumor stroma. Whereas the diminished leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions observed in tumor microvessels have been attributed to a reduced expression of endothelial CAMs, there is no quantitative data bearing on this issue. The dual-radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used to quantify constitutive and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha-induced expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), ICAM-2, P-selectin, E-selectin, and platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1) in different vascular beds of normal (C57Bl/6) and RM-1 tumor-bearing mice. When corrected for endothelial surface area, the constitutive expression of selectins in tumor vessels was higher than that observed in other vascular beds. Both constitutive and induced expression of endothelial CAMs in peripheral vascular beds did not differ between normal and tumor-bearing mice. Within the tumor, the magnitude of the upregulation of P-selectin, ICAM-1, and VCAM-1 after TNF-alpha was similar to that within other vascular beds. E-selectin expression in tumors was refractory to TNF-alpha, whereas PECAM-1 and ICAM-2 expression were significantly reduced. Our findings suggest that the presence of a solid tumor does not influence endothelial CAM expression in other vascular beds and that the higher density of selectins in nonstimulated tumor vessels may promote the recruitment of rolling leukocytes in this tissue.

Abstract
Increased incidence of septic complications in human and experimental portal hypertension has been documented. Because development of an inflammatory response is essential in defense against infectious agents, the aim of this study was to assess leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions in an experimental model of portal hypertension. Intravital microscopy studies showed that under baseline conditions, leukocyte rolling, adhesion, and emigration in mesenteric venules were similar in control, sham operated (SO), and partial portal vein ligated (PPVL) rats. Compared with either control or SO rats, PPVL animals exhibited a markedly reduced recruitment of rolling, adherent, and emigrated leukocytes in response to leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) stimulation. Similarly, platelet-activating factor (PAF) superfusion, which induced a large increment in leukocyte rolling and adherence in control and SO rats, was without any effect in PPVL animals. Endothelial P-selectin expression in control rats, as measured by the double radio-labeled monoclonal antibody (mAb) technique, was not modified by LTB(4), but significantly increased in response to PAF. PPVL rats had a significantly lower expression of P-selectin after stimulation with PAF. Neutrophils isolated from PPVL rats exhibited increased L-selectin shedding and CD11b up-regulation in response to PAF and LTB(4), compared with neutrophils isolated from SO rats. These observations indicate that portal hypertension is associated with a defective inflammatory response, which is manifested as a decreased recruitment of rolling leukocytes, and subsequently reduced adhesion/emigration. This defect appears to result from a reduced endothelial P-selectin up-regulation and increased L-selectin shedding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The molecular mechanisms responsible for leukocyte recruitment in experimental colitis are poorly understood. The aims of this study were to measure expression of endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and to determine their role in leukocyte recruitment in experimental colitis. METHODS Rats with trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis and control rats were studied 1, 7, or 21 days after treatment. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expressions were measured by the double radiolabeled antibody technique. Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions were determined in colonic venules by fluorescence intravital microscopy. Therapeutic effects of treatment with anti-VCAM-1 antibodies were also assessed. RESULTS Colonic endothelial ICAM-1 was constitutively expressed and did not increase in colitic animals. In contrast, constitutive expression of VCAM-1 was low but markedly increased (6-fold) 1 and 7 days after induction of colitis. Increased colonic expression of VCAM-1 paralleled macroscopic damage score, myeloperoxidase activity, and increased leukocyte adhesion in colonic venules. The latter was significantly decreased by immunoneutralization of ICAM-1 and completely abrogated by immunoneutralization of VCAM-1. Long-term administration of anti-VCAM-1 antibody resulted in significant attenuation of colitis. CONCLUSIONS Induction of colitis in rats by TNBS is followed by up-regulation of endothelial VCAM-1. VCAM-1 and constitutive ICAM-1 are major determinants of leukocyte recruitment to the inflamed intestine.

Abstract
Immune activation of hypothalamic corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) provides a negative feedback mechanism to modulate peripheral inflammatory responses. We investigated whether central CRF attenuates endothelial expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and leukocyte recruitment during endotoxemia in rats and determined its mechanisms of action. As measured by intravital microscopy, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced a dose-dependent increase in leukocyte rolling, adhesion, and emigration in mesenteric venules, which was associated with upregulation of endothelial ICAM-1 expression. Intracisternal injection of CRF abrogated both the increased expression of ICAM-1 and leukocyte recruitment. Intravenous injection of the specific CRF receptor antagonist astressin did not modify leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions induced by a high dose of LPS but enhanced leukocyte adhesion induced by a low dose. Blockade of endogenous glucocorticoids but not alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (alpha-MSH) receptors reversed the inhibitory action of CRF on leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions during endotoxemia. In conclusion, cerebral CRF blunts endothelial upregulation of ICAM-1 and attenuates the recruitment of leukocytes during endotoxemia. The anti-inflammatory effects of CRF are mediated by adrenocortical activation and additional mechanisms independent of alpha-MSH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Researchers have shown that reperfusion of ischemic tissues initiates a complex series of reactions that paradoxically injure tissues. Although several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the pathobiology of ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury, much attention has focused on adhesion molecules. Our research is intended to show the kinetics of P-selectin in the liver in response to I/R injury. METHODS Left-lobar hepatic ischemia was induced for 30 min in 35 C57BL-6 mice and 20 P-selectin-deficient (K-O) mice. P-selectin expression was measured in these mice at 20 min, 2, 5, 12 and 24 h reperfusion times, as well as in control and sham animals. The animals were injected with radio-labeled P-selectin monoclonal antibody and the organs were harvested for counts/g tissue, expressed as the percentage injected dose. Serum liver enzymes were measured and pathological sections of ischemic and control livers were performed. The unpaired t-test was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS P-selectin expression showed two peaks in this animal model. The first peak was at 20 min and the second peak at 5 h of reperfusion (p < 0.001). We documented an 8-fold increase in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels 10 h following I/R injury. Pathological specimens showed periportal necrosis consistent with an ischemic event. P-selectin K-O mice showed no up-regulation as a separate control group, and the liver enzymes were significantly lower than the wild-type mice at 10 h (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION P-selectin has a bimodal expression following hepatic I/R injury. The first peak is attributed to the Weibel-Palade bodies and the second to new translational P-selectin. We noted no difference in the up-regulation of P-selectin in the ischemic and non-ischemic liver lobes in the same animal.

Abstract
Products of enteric bacteria, including endotoxin [lipopolysaccharide (LPS)], have been implicated in the acute inflammatory responses elicited by ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) of the small intestine. The objective of this study was to assess the contribution of LPS to the increased E-selectin expression observed in the intestinal vasculature after I/R. The dual radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique was used in LPS-sensitive (C3HeB/FeJ) and LPS-insensitive (C3H/HeJ) mice that were exposed to either exogenous LPS or to gut I/R (45 min ischemia, 5 h reperfusion). LPS elicited a dose-dependent (0.5-50 microgram LPS/animal) increase in E-selectin expression (at 3 h) in LPS-sensitive mice, whereas LPS-insensitive mice were largely unresponsive. E-selectin expression was increased fivefold by I/R in the small bowel of both LPS-sensitive and -insensitive mice. These results indicate that, although exogenous LPS is capable of eliciting profound dose-dependent increases in E-selectin expression, endogenous LPS does not contribute significantly to I/R-induced expression of this endothelial cell adhesion molecule.

Abstract
UDP-GlcNAc:Galbet1 --> 3GalNAc-R beta1 --> 6N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (Core2 N-acetyl-glucosaminyltransferase, C2GnT; EC 2.4.1.102) forms beta1 --> 6N-acetyl-glucosaminyl linkages in O-glycoproteins and creates branches for the addition of N-acetyl-lactosamine antennae. Changes in C2GnT activity have been associated with immune disorders, malignancies, and T-cell ontogeny. In this study, we used SCID (severe combined immune deficiency) mice to determine the effects of C2GnT overexpression on hemopoiesis, and in particular, on thymocyte development. BALB/c bone marrow cells transfected with C2GnT using the retroviral murine stem cell vector were used to repopulate SCID mice. Mice were analysed 3 weeks to 3 months after bone marrow transfer. Elevated levels of C2GnT activity in bone marrow, spleen, and thymus from mice repopulated with C2GnT transfected bone marrow cells indicated that C2GnT was overexpressed in recipient mice. In C2GnT repopulated mice, up to 50% of T cells showed an increase in CD43 130-kDa expression, compared with T cells from control animals, indicative of an elevated C2GnT activity in these cells. Furthermore, T-cell subset numbers appeared to be normal, suggesting that C2GnT overexpression did not alter T-cell ontogeny. Interestingly, C2GnT overexpression negatively affected the repopulation of myeloid cells. Only insignificant numbers of interleukin-3/granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (IL-3/GM-CSF) responsive bone marrow cells were found to be retrovirally transfected in C2GnT repopulated mice, whereas up to 50% of IL-3/GM-CSF responsive bone marrow cells were found to be retrovirally transfected in corresponding controls. These data indicate that in vivo overexpression of C2GnT negatively interferes with the myeloid differentiation pathway but does not affect T-cell development.

Abstract
Reperfusion of ischemic intestine is associated with P-selectin-dependent adhesion of leukocytes in the liver microcirculation. The objective of this study was to define the contribution of nitric oxide (NO) to the enhanced P-selectin expression and increased leukocyte rolling elicited by gut ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Leukocyte rolling (monitored by intravital microscopy) in the terminal hepatic venules (THV) and P-selectin expression (measured using the dual-radiolabeled monoclonal antibody technique) were determined in mice after 15 min of superior mesenteric artery occlusion and 30 min of reperfusion. After 30 min of reperfusion, P-selectin expression was significantly increased in the liver, intestine, and lung, with a corresponding increase in the number of rolling leukocytes (in THV). The NO synthase inhibitor NG-monomethyl-L-arginine exaggerated the gut I/R-induced increases in both rolling leukocytes and P-selectin expression (in liver and intestine), responses that were not detected with coadministration of L-arginine or in P-selectin-deficient mice. The NO donor diethylenetriamine/NO and L-arginine were both effective in attenuating the gut I/R-induced increases in rolling leukocytes (in THV) and P-selectin expression (in liver, intestine, and lung). These findings indicate that NO modulates gut I/R-induced recruitment of rolling leukocytes in THV via an action on P-selectin expression.
