Investigation of the clinical utility of adhesion molecules in the management of thyroid nodules. Sci Rep 2023; 13:4069. [PMID: 36906717 PMCID: PMC10008644 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-31302-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/13/2023] Open
Abstract
To better understand the relationship among cell adhesion molecules (CAM) and investigate the clinical diagnostic and prognostic application of ICAM-1 (ICAM1), LFA-1 (ITGAL), and L-selectin (SELL) proteins and mRNA corresponding expression in thyroid cancer. Gene expression was evaluated by RT-qPCR, and protein expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. We evaluated 275 patients (218 women, 57 men, 48.4 ± 14.5 years old), including 102 benign and 173 malignant nodules. The 143 papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and 30 follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) patients were managed according to current guidelines and followed-up for 78.7 ± 54.2 months. Malignant and benign nodules differed concerning mRNA (p = 0.0027) and protein (p = 0.0020 for nuclear) expression of L-selectin and ICAM-1 (mRNA: p = 0.0001 and protein: p = 0.0014) and protein expression of LFA-1 (p = 0.0168), but not mRNA expression of LFA-1 (p = 0.2131). SELL expression was more intense in malignant tumors (p = 0.0027). ICAM1 (p = 0.0064) and ITGAL (p = 0.0244) mRNA expression was higher in tumors with lymphocyte infiltrate. ICAM-1 expression correlated with younger age at diagnosis (p = 0.0312) and smaller tumor size (p = 0.0443). Also, LFA-1 expression correlated with higher age at diagnosis (p = 0.0376) and was more intense at stage III and IV (p = 0.0077). In general, the protein expression of the 3 CAM decreased as the process of cellular dedifferentiation occurred. We suggest that the SELL and ICAM1 genes and L-selectin and LFA-1 protein expression may help confirm malignancy and assist in the histological characterization of follicular patterned lesions, but we were unable to correlate these CAMs with patient outcomes.

Inhibition of B-cell receptor signaling disrupts cell adhesion in mantle cell lymphoma via RAC2. Blood Adv 2021; 5:185-197.

Abstract
Inhibition of the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway is highly effective in B-cell neoplasia through Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibition by ibrutinib. Ibrutinib also disrupts cell adhesion between a tumor and its microenvironment. However, it is largely unknown how BCR signaling is linked to cell adhesion. We observed that intrinsic sensitivities of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) cell lines to ibrutinib correlated well with their cell adhesion phenotype. RNA-sequencing revealed that BCR and cell adhesion signatures were simultaneously downregulated by ibrutinib in the ibrutinib-sensitive, but not ibrutinib-resistant, cells. Among the differentially expressed genes, RAC2, part of the BCR signature and a known regulator of cell adhesion, was downregulated at both the RNA and protein levels by ibrutinib only in sensitive cells. RAC2 physically associated with B-cell linker protein (BLNK), a BCR adaptor molecule, uniquely in sensitive cells. RAC2 reduction using RNA interference and CRISPR impaired cell adhesion, whereas RAC2 overexpression reversed ibrutinib-induced cell adhesion impairment. In a xenograft mouse model, mice treated with ibrutinib exhibited slower tumor growth, with reduced RAC2 expression in tissue. Finally, RAC2 was expressed in ∼65% of human primary MCL tumors, and RAC2 suppression by ibrutinib resulted in cell adhesion impairment. These findings, made with cell lines, a xenograft model, and human primary lymphoma tumors, uncover a novel link between BCR signaling and cell adhesion. This study highlights the importance of RAC2 and cell adhesion in MCL pathogenesis and drug development.

Abstract
C3G is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that regulates cell adhesion and migration by activating the GTPase Rap1. The GEF activity of C3G is stimulated by the adaptor proteins Crk and CrkL and by tyrosine phosphorylation. Here, we uncovered mechanisms of C3G autoinhibition and activation. Specifically, we found that two intramolecular interactions regulate the activity of C3G. First, an autoinhibitory region (AIR) within the central domain of C3G binds to and blocks the catalytic Cdc25H domain. Second, the binding of the protein's N-terminal domain to its Ras exchanger motif (REM) is required for its GEF activity. CrkL activated C3G by displacing the AIR/Cdc25HD interaction. Two missense mutations in the AIR found in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, Y554H and M555K, disrupted the autoinhibitory mechanism. Expression of C3G-Y554H or C3G-M555K in Ba/F3 pro-B cells caused constitutive activation of Rap1 and, consequently, the integrin LFA-1. Our findings suggest that sustained Rap1 activation by deregulated C3G might promote progression of lymphomas and that designing therapeutics to target C3G might treat these malignancies.

Decreased expression of the β 2 integrin on tumor cells is associated with a reduction in liver metastasis of colorectal cancer in mice. BMC Cancer 2017; 17:827. [PMID: 29207960 PMCID: PMC5718006 DOI: 10.1186/s12885-017-3823-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2016] [Accepted: 11/22/2017] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1; CD18/CD11a) is one of the main adhesion molecules used by immune cells to infiltrate the liver under inflammatory conditions. Recently, the expression of this integrin has also been reported on several solid tumors, including colorectal cancer. However, its functional role in the metastatic progression to the liver remains unknown. Using in vitro assays and an experimental orthotopic in vivo model of liver metastasis, we aimed to elucidate the role of tumor LFA-1 in the metastatic progression by means of the partial depletion of the β2 subunit of LFA-1, required for integrin activation, firm adhesion and signaling. METHODS To do so, we evaluated the effects of β2 reduction on the murine colon carcinoma C26 cell line on their pro-metastatic features in vitro and their metastatic potential in vivo in a mouse model of colon carcinoma metastasis to the liver. RESULTS The reduction in β2 integrin expression correlated with a slower proliferation, and a reduced adhesion and migration of C26 cells in an in vitro setting. Additionally, tumor cells with a reduced in β2 integrin expression were unable to activate the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs). This resulted in a recovery of the cytotoxic potential of liver lymphocytes which is compromised by LSECs activated by C26 cells. This was related to the abrogation of RNA expression of inflammatory and angiogenic cytokines by C26 cells after their activation with sICAM-1, the main ligand of β2αL. Furthermore, in vivo tumor cell retention and metastasis were profoundly reduced, along with a decrease in the recruitment and infiltration of myeloid derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and lymphocytes to the liver. CONCLUSION Taken together, our findings uncovered the modulatory role for the tumor β2 subunit of the LFA-1 integrin in the metastatic progression of colorectal cancer to the liver by impairing activation of liver endothelium and thus, the local immune response in the liver. Besides, this integrin also showed to be critical in vivo for tumor cell retention, cytokine release, leukocyte recruitment and metastasis development. These data support a therapeutical potential of the integrin LFA-1 as a target for the treatment of colorectal liver metastasis.

Abstract
Over 20% of cancer patients will suffer metastatic spread to the brain, and prognosis remains poor. Communication between tumour cells and host tissue is essential during metastasis, yet little is known of the processes underlying such interactions in the brain.Here we test the hypothesis that cross-talk between tumour cells and host brain cells, through tumour cell leukocyte function associated protein-1 (LFA-1), is critical in metastasis development. Temporal expression of LFA-1 and its major ligand intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was determined in two different mouse models of brain metastasis. Marked upregulation of both proteins was found, co-localising with astrocytes, microglia and tumour cells themselves. Silencing of LFA-1 expression in MDA231Br-GFP cells prior to intracerebral injection resulted in > 70% reduction in tumour burden compared to control MDA231Br-GFP cells (p < 0.005, n = 5). Subsequent qRT-PCR analysis of brain tissue revealed significant reductions in COX-2, VEGF and eNOS from host brain tissue, but not tumour cells, in mice injected with LFA-1 knockdown cells (p < 0.0001, n = 5). Finally, expression of both LFA-1 and ICAM-1 was demonstrated in human brain metastasis samples.The results of this study suggest LFA-1 as a new target in brain metastasis therapy and highlight the potential synergy with current anti-COX-2 and anti-NOS therapies.

Abstract
Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) infection can trigger myocarditis and can ultimately lead to dilated cardiomyopathy. It is known that CVB3-induced T-cell infiltration into cardiac tissues is one of the pathological factors causing cardiomyocyte injury by inflammation. However, the underlying mechanism for this remains unclear. We investigated the mechanism of T-cell infiltration by two types of CVB3: the H3 WT strain and the YYFF attenuated strain. T-cell activation was confirmed by changes in the distribution of lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1). Finally, we identified which viral gene was responsible for LFA-1 activation. CVB3 could infect and activate T-cells in vivo and in vitro, and activated T-cells were detected in CVB3-infected mouse hearts. LFA-1 expressed on the surface of these T-cells had been activated through the cAMP/Rap1 pathway. Recombinant lentiviruses expressing VP2 of CVB3 could also induce LFA-1 activation via an increase in cAMP, whilst VP2 of YYFF did not. These results indicated that CVB3 infection increased cAMP levels and then activated Rap1 in T-cells. In particular, VP2, among the CVB3 proteins, might be critical for this activation. This VP2-cAMP-Rap1-LFA-1 axis could be a potential therapeutic target for treating CVB3-induced myocarditis.

Abstract
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) presents as both localized and disseminated disease with spread to secondary sites carrying a worse prognosis. Although pathways driving NHL dissemination have been identified, there are few therapies capable of inhibiting them. Here, we report a novel role for the immunomodulatory protein CD47 in NHL dissemination, and we demonstrate that therapeutic targeting of CD47 can prevent such spread. We developed 2 in vivo lymphoma metastasis models using Raji cells, a human NHL cell line, and primary cells from a lymphoma patient. CD47 expression was required for Raji cell dissemination to the liver in mouse xenotransplants. Targeting of CD47 with a blocking antibody inhibited Raji cell dissemination to major organs, including the central nervous system, and inhibited hematogenous dissemination of primary lymphoma cells. We hypothesized that anti-CD47 antibody-mediated elimination of circulating tumor cells occurred through phagocytosis, a previously described mechanism for blocking anti-CD47 antibodies. As predicted, inhibition of dissemination by anti-CD47 antibodies was dependent on blockade of phagocyte SIRPα and required macrophage effector cells. These results demonstrate that CD47 is required for NHL dissemination, which can be therapeutically targeted with a blocking anti-CD47 antibody. Ultimately, these findings are potentially applicable to the dissemination and metastasis of other solid tumors.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Mannose receptor (ManR)-mediated liver sinusoidal endothelial cell (LSEC) endocytosis plays a role in antigen presentation and innate immunity, but its role in hepatic metastasis is unknown. We studied ManR-mediated endocytosis during C26 colorectal cancer cell interaction with LSECs and its implications in metastasis. Uptake of labeled ManR ligands (mannan and ovalbumin) and immunohistochemistry were used to study ManR endocytosis and expression. Several interleukin (IL)-1 inhibitors and the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor celecoxib were used to analyze the role of IL-1 and COX-2 in ManR regulation. Anti-mouse ManR antibodies and ManR knockout (ManR(-/-)) mice were used to identify ManR-dependent mechanisms during antitumor immune response of liver sinusoidal lymphocytes (LSLs) interacting with tumor-activated LSECs. ManR expression and endocytosis increased in tumor-activated LSECs through a two-step mechanism: (1) Release of COX-2-dependent IL-1-stimulating factors by lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1-expressing C26 cells in response to intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which was expressed and secreted by tumor-activated LSECs; and (2) widespread up-regulation of ManR in LSECs through tumor-induced IL-1. In addition, LSLs that had interacted with tumor-activated LSECs in vivo decreased their antitumor cytotoxicity and interferon (IFN)-gamma secretion while they increased IL-10 release ex vivo. IFN-gamma/IL-10 ratio also decreased in the hepatic blood from tumor-injected mice. Immunosuppressant effects of tumor-activated LSECs on LSLs were abrogated in both LSECs from ManR(-/-) mice and tumor-activated LSECs given anti-mouse ManR antibodies. CONCLUSION ICAM-1-induced tumor COX-2 decreased antitumor activity during hepatic metastasis through IL-1-induced ManR. ManR constituted a common mediator for prometastatic effects of IL-1, COX-2, and ICAM-1. A rise in hepatic IFN-gamma/IL-10 ratio and antitumor cytotoxicity by way of ManR blockade is consistent with the antimetastatic effects of IL-1, COX-2, and ICAM-1 inhibitors. These data support ManR and ManR-stimulating factors as targets for hepatic colorectal metastasis therapy.

Abstract
Background The recruitment of vascular stromal and endothelial cells is an early event occurring during cancer cell growth at premetastatic niches, but how the microenvironment created by the initial three-dimensional (3D) growth of cancer cells affects their angiogenesis-stimulating potential is unclear. Methods The proangiogenic profile of CT26 murine colorectal carcinoma cells was studied in seven-day cultured 3D-spheroids of <300 μm in diameter, produced by the hanging-drop method to mimic the microenvironment of avascular micrometastases prior to hypoxia occurrence. Results Spheroid-derived CT26 cells increased vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) secretion by 70%, which in turn increased the in vitro migration of primary cultured hepatic sinusoidal endothelium (HSE) cells by 2-fold. More importantly, spheroid-derived CT26 cells increased lymphocyte function associated antigen (LFA)-1-expressing cell fraction by 3-fold; and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, given to spheroid-cultured CT26 cells, further increased VEGF secretion by 90%, via cyclooxygenase (COX)-2-dependent mechanism. Consistent with these findings, CT26 cancer cells significantly increased LFA-1 expression in non-hypoxic avascular micrometastases at their earliest inception within hepatic lobules in vivo; and angiogenesis also markedly increased in both subcutaneous tumors and hepatic metastases produced by spheroid-derived CT26 cells. Conclusion 3D-growth per se enriched the proangiogenic phenotype of cancer cells growing as multicellular spheroids or as subclinical hepatic micrometastases. The contribution of integrin LFA-1 to VEGF secretion via COX-2 was a micro environmental-related mechanism leading to the pro-angiogenic activation of soluble ICAM-1-activated colorectal carcinoma cells. This mechanism may represent a new target for specific therapeutic strategies designed to block colorectal cancer cell growth at a subclinical micrometastatic stage within the liver.

Abstract
Using variants of the murine BW5147 lymphoma cell-line, we have previously identified 3 monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) that discriminate between metastatic and nonmetastatic BW5147-derived T-cell hybridomas and lymphomas, as well as BW5147-unrelated T-lymphomas. These MAbs were reported to recognize an identical membrane-associated sialoglycoprotein, termed "metastatic T-cell hybridoma antigen" (MTH-Ag). Here, we document that the expression pattern of the MTH-Ag on metastatic and nonmetastatic BW5147 variants correlates with that of the P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL-1), a sialomucin involved in leukocyte recruitment to sites of inflammation. Moreover, the MAbs against the MTH-Ag recognize PSGL-1 when it is transfected in MTH-Ag-negative BW5147 variants, suggesting that the MTH-Ag is PSGL-1. Overexpression of MTH-Ag/PSGL-1 in MTH-Ag-negative BW5147 variants did not affect their in vivo malignancy. Yet, down-regulation of MTH-Ag/PSGL-1 expression on metastatic, MTH-Ag-positive BW5147 variants, using an RNA interference (RNAi) approach, resulted, in a dose-dependent manner, in a significant reduction of liver and spleen colonization and a delay in mortality of the recipient mice upon intravenous inoculation. Collectively, these results demonstrate that, although MTH-Ag/PSGL-1 overexpression alone may not be sufficient for successful dissemination and organ colonization, MTH-Ag/PSGL-1 plays a critical role in hematogenous metastasis of lymphoid cancer cells.

Abstract
We evaluated the expression of 10 adhesion molecules on peripheral blood tumor cells of 17 patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, 17 with mantle-cell lymphoma, and 13 with nodal or splenic marginal B-cell lymphoma, all in the leukemic phase and before the beginning of any therapy. The diagnosis of B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas was based on cytological, histological, immunophenotypic, and molecular biology methods. The mean fluorescence intensity of the adhesion molecules in tumor cells was measured by flow cytometry of CD19-positive cells and differed amongst the types of lymphomas. Comparison of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and mantle-cell lymphoma showed that the former presented a higher expression of CD11c and CD49c, and a lower expression of CD11b and CD49d adhesion molecules. Comparison of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and marginal B-cell lymphoma showed that the former presented a higher expression of CD49c and a lower expression of CD11a, CD11b, CD18, CD49d, CD29, and CD54. Finally, comparison of mantle-cell lymphoma and marginal B-cell lymphoma showed that marginal B-cell lymphoma had a higher expression of CD11a, CD11c, CD18, CD29, and CD54. Thus, the CD49c/CD49d pair consistently demonstrated a distinct pattern of expression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia compared with mantle-cell lymphoma and marginal B-cell lymphoma, which could be helpful for the differential diagnosis. Moreover, the distinct profiles of adhesion molecules in these diseases may be responsible for their different capacities to invade the blood stream.

Abstract
The demonstration that Abs to adhesion molecules can block tumor metastasis suggested their use for therapy. However, such Abs affect nonmalignant cells as well. To circumvent this adverse effect, we proposed the use of bispecific Abs that bind simultaneously to an adhesion receptor and to a tumor-specific Ag. Such bifunctional Abs bind more avidly to tumor cells that coexpress both target Ags than to normal cells. The Id of the surface Ig of malignant B lymphocytes is a tumor-specific Ag. Therefore, we produced bispecific Abs with specificity to the adhesion molecule, CD44, and to an idiotypic determinant of the murine B cell lymphoma, 38C-13. These anti-Id x anti-CD44 bispecific Abs blocked 38C-13 cell adhesion to hyaluronic acid, while not affecting adhesion of Id-negative cells. In vivo studies demonstrated that the bispecific Abs inhibited lymphoma cell dissemination to the lymph nodes, bone marrow, and spleen, and prolonged survival of tumor-bearing mice. Migration of 38C-13 cells to the lymphoid organs was inhibited by the bispecific Abs. Thus, the bispecific Ab-mediated reduction in metastasis resulted, at least in part, from reduced homing to these organs. In contrast to anti-CD44 monospecific Abs, the anti-Id x anti-CD44 bispecific Abs did not affect immune responses such as delayed-type hypersensitivity. Hence, bispecific Abs against adhesion molecules and tumor-specific Ags may selectively block tumor metastasis in a way which may leave at least part of the immune system intact.

Abstract
Jak tyrosine kinases are activated by interleukins and other growth factors, and promote survival and proliferation of cells in multiple tissues. These kinases are constitutively active in many hematopoietic malignancies and certain carcinomas. We have investigated whether Jak kinases play a role in lymphoma invasion and metastasis. Proliferation and survival of a highly metastatic T-lymphoma was made independent of its constitutively active Jak by expression of active forms of both STAT3 and PI3-kinase. Jak activity was then blocked by the isolated JH2 'pseudokinase' domain of Jak2. In vitro invasion was blocked by the JH2 domain, and the metastatic capacity of the JH2-expressing cells was much reduced. The Jak inhibitor AG490 inhibited invasion as well. Invasion and metastasis of these cells requires activation of the integrin LFA-1 by the CXCR4 chemokine receptor. We show that Jak kinases act downstream of LFA-1. We conclude that Jak kinase activity is essential for lymphoma invasion and metastasis, independent of its role in survival and proliferation, and independent of STAT and PI3K signaling. This indicates that Jak kinases contribute in multiple ways to the induction of malignant behavior.

Abstract
Abs to adhesion molecules can block tumor metastasis. However, they may also block the function of normal cells. To circumvent this adverse effect, we proposed the use of bispecific Abs that bind simultaneously to an adhesion receptor and to a tumor-specific Ag. Such Abs bind more avidly to tumor cells that coexpress both target Ags than to normal cells. The Id of the surface Ig of malignant B lymphocytes is a tumor-specific Ag. We therefore produced a bispecific Ab with specificity to the adhesion molecule LFA-1 and to the Id of the murine B cell lymphoma 38C-13. Here we demonstrate that this Ab blocked liver metastasis in mice carrying primary s.c. tumors and partially inhibited lymph node metastasis. Migration of 38C-13 cells to liver and lymph nodes was inhibited by the bispecific Ab, while migration to spleen was not affected. Hence, the bispecific Ab-mediated reduction in liver and lymph node metastasis resulted at least in part from reduced homing to these organs. In contrast to anti-LFA-1 monospecific Abs, the anti-Id x anti-LFA-1 bispecific Ab did not affect immune responses such as delayed-type hypersensitivity. Hence, bispecific Abs against adhesion molecules and against tumor-specific Ags may selectively block tumor metastasis in a way that may leave much of the immune system intact.

Abstract
The dissemination of T cell hybridomas to multiple nonhematopoietic tissues is blocked by pertussis toxin, suggesting the involvement of a chemokine. To study whether this chemokine is SDF-1, we employed a strategy proposed previously for gene therapy of AIDS, whereby the SDF-1 receptor CXCR4 (also a coreceptor for HIV) is retained in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and fails to reach the cell surface. We transfected SDF-1, carrying an ER retention sequence, into a T cell hybridoma. This altered chemokine is retained in the ER, where it binds CXCR4 and prevents the latter protein from reaching the surface. These cells failed to migrate toward SDF-1 or to invade fibroblast monolayers, although they could still migrate toward thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC) and invade TARC-treated monolayers. Furthermore, the ability of the transfected cells to disseminate to multiple organs upon intravenous injection into mice was abolished. This dissemination reflects the in vivo migration patterns of activated and memory T cells into nonhematopoietic tissues, which is thus likely to depend on CXCR4. Attempts to block CXCR4 function as a therapy for AIDS may affect this migration with consequences for T cell function. Our results also suggest a decisive role for CXCR4 in the dissemination of hematopoietic malignancies expressing this receptor.

Abstract
Despite the wide clinical use of glucocorticoids in the chemotherapy of leukaemia and lymphoma, there have been limited efforts at understanding the effects of these hormones on metastasis formation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of glucocorticoids on the tissue-infiltrating capability of lymphoid cells. Using an in vitro invasion assay, we found that dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid analogue, inhibited the invasion of a murine T-cell hybridoma through a monolayer of fibroblast-like cells. Even low doses of dexamethasone were effective at inhibiting cellular transmigration (EC50 = 0.4 nM). A maximal decrease was observed after an overnight culture in the presence of dexamethasone. The effect persisted for at least 24 h after removal of the drug and required the binding of the hormone to its intracellular glucocorticoid receptor. Our results suggest that the decreased invasiveness of dexamethasone-treated cells is not the consequence of reduced motility or deficient production of an autocrine factor required for cell migration. This in vitro study suggests that glucocorticoids may act to reduce dissemination of lymphoma cells in vivo.

Abstract
The induction of a transformed cellular phenotype by viruses requires the modulation of signaling pathways through viral proteins. We show here that the phenotypic changes induced by the kaposin A protein of human herpesvirus 8 are mediated through its direct interaction with cytohesin-1, a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for ARF GTPases and regulator of integrin-mediated cell adhesion. Focus formation, stress fiber dissolution, and activation of the ERK-1/2 MAP kinase signal cascade were reverted by the cytohesin-1 E157K mutant, which is deficient in catalyzing guanine nucleotide exchange. Furthermore, liposome-embedded kaposin A specifically stimulates cytohesin-1 dependent GTP binding of myristoylated ARF1 in vitro. These results suggest a previously unknown involvement of ARF GTPases in the control of cellular functions by herpesviruses.

Abstract
Dissemination of T cell hybridomas in mice, a model for in vivo migration of memory T cells and for T lymphoma metastasis, depends on the chemokine stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and the integrin LFA-1 and correlates well with invasion into fibroblast cultures. In addition to the known role of the pertussis toxin-sensitive heterotrimeric GTPase G(i), we show that also the pertussis toxin-insensitive GTPase G(q/11) is required for dissemination and invasion. Furthermore, we show that the small GTPases, Cdc42 and RhoA, are involved, and that invasion is blocked by inhibitors of actinomyosin contraction. G(q/11), RhoA, and contraction are specifically required for LFA-1 activation, since 1) they are essential for LFA-1-dependent migration toward low SDF-1 concentrations through ICAM-1-coated filters, but not for migration toward high SDF-1 levels, which is LFA-1 independent; 2) G protein (AlF(4)(-))-induced adhesion to ICAM-1 requires RhoA and contraction; 3) constitutively active G(q) induces aggregation, mediated by LFA-1. We previously reported that binding of this activated LFA-1 to ICAM-1 triggers a signal, transduced by the zeta-associated protein 70 tyrosine kinase, that activates additional LFA-1 molecules. This amplification of LFA-1 activation is essential for invasion. We show here that zeta-associated protein 70-induced LFA-1 activation requires neither Cdc42 and RhoA nor contraction and is thus quite different from that induced by SDF-1. We conclude that two modes of LFA-1 activation, with distinct underlying mechanisms, are required for the in vivo migration of T cell hybridomas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to analyse the expression of adhesion molecules in childhood non-Hodgkin lymphomas and to correlate the findings with clinical features and prognosis. PROCEDURE Samples were obtained from pleural and peritoneal fluids, bone marrow aspirates, and tissue biopsies from 21 patients (median age: 8 years). There were 9 T-cell and 12 B-cell lymphomas. The expression of CD18, CD44s, CD54, CD62L were investigated with flow cytometry by using monoclonal antibodies. RESULTS Absence of CD18, which was independent from immunophenotype, was found in 67% of patients. Positive CD44s and CD62L expression were observed in 48 and 63% of the cases, respectively. In all of the cases with T-cell lymphoma, CD54 was negative, whereas 8 of 12 cases with B-cell lymphoma expressed this molecule (P = 0.005). There was no correlation between location of disease and the expression of adhesion molecules, except CD54 that was negative in all mediasten lymphoma (P = 0.004). CD62L (+) patients had more frequently stage IV disease than CD62L (-) ones (P = 0.01). Two-year overall survival was 83 and 29% in CD18 (+) and CD18 (-) cases; 55 and 36% in CD44s (+) and CD44s (-) cases; 46 and 42% in CD54 (+) and CD54 (-) cases; 42 and 50% in CD62L (+) and CD62L (-) cases. CONCLUSIONS The expression of LFA-1 on lymphoblasts is lost in the majority of childhood non-Hodgkin lymphomas. ICAM-1 is not detected on neoplastic cells of patients with T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. L-selectin positivity correlates with disseminated disease. There is no significant relationship between the expression of adhesion molecules and the survival rates, although CD18(+) cases had better overall survival rate than CD18(-) cases.

Abstract
The migration of leukocytes into tissues is regulated by chemokines and other chemotactic factors that act on receptors that signal through Gi proteins. It seems likely that the colonization of tissues during dissemination of hematopoietic tumor cells is similarly regulated. In fact, dissemination of a T-cell hybridoma, a model for T lymphoma, was blocked when Gi proteins were inactivated by the S1 catalytic subunit of pertussis toxin that had been transfected into those cells. Pertussis toxin S1 blocked dissemination of MDAY-D2 murine myeloid leukemia cells to the liver and spleen, as in T-cell hybridoma cells, but it did not prevent bone marrow colonization. In contrast, overexpression of a function-defective mutant of the Gq/11 protein blocked dissemination to the bone marrow and also prevented Gq/11 dissemination to the liver and spleen. This indicates that the influx of these myeloid cells into all tissues requires the Gq/11 protein in addition to the Gi protein in the liver and spleen.

Abstract
AbstractEngagement of cell surface adhesion receptors with extracellular constituents and with cellular counter-receptors is crucial for the extravasation of blood-borne neoplastic cells and their seeding at distant sites; however, the early events of tumor dissemination—ie, the intravasation step(s)—have been largely neglected. A role for the 4β7 integrin was hypothesized to explain the high leukemogenicity exhibited by one (NQ22) among several T-cell lymphomas studied. To clarify the mechanisms of early aggressivity, the behavior of highly and poorly leukemogenic cell lines were compared in vitro. Cocultivation of physically separated leukemic cells with resting endothelial cells resulted in the up-regulation of VCAM-1 expression. NQ22 cells expressed mRNA of different cytokines that up-regulate VCAM-1 and at higher levels than cells of a nonaggressive lymphoma, and they migrated more efficiently through an activated endothelial cell layer. With the use of neutralizing antibodies against interferon-γ, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-, it was determined that TNF- is one of the soluble factors released by NQ22 cells involved in the up-regulation of VCAM-1. The finding that vascular cells within the early local growth were strongly positive for VCAM-1 indicated that NQ22 cells could activate endothelial cells also in vivo. Finally, cocultivation of preleukemic 4−NQ22 cells with TNF--activated endothelial cells induced the expression of 4 integrins on the former cells. Reciprocal up-regulation and engagement of 4/VCAM-1 pairs determined the sequential transmigration and intravasation steps, and similar mechanisms might affect the aggressivity of human T lymphoblastic lymphomas.

Abstract
AbstractRegulated lymphocyte trafficking is essential for the control and integration of systemic immune responses. This homing process disperses the immunologic repertoire, guides lymphocyte subsets to the specialized microenvironments that control their differentiation and survival, and targets immune effector cells to sites of antigenic insult. This review discusses data indicating that the adhesion receptors regulating the trafficking of normal lymphocytes are also expressed and functionally active in their malignant counterparts, the non-Hodgkin lymphomas. These “homing receptors” appear to mediate the highly tissue-specific dissemination of specific lymphoma subtypes, such as lymphomas of the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissues and lymphomas of the skin. Furthermore, as a result of their capability to enhance lymphoma dissemination and to transduce signals into the cell, promoting cell growth and survival, adhesion receptors may contribute to lymphoma aggressiveness. Taken together, the data offer a framework for understanding the dissemination routes of non-Hodgkin lymphomas and suggest that adhesion receptors, specifically those of the CD44 family, may present useful tools to predict prognosis in patients with lymphomas.

Abstract
Structural requirements for beta 1 integrin cytoplasmic domain functions in adhesion, migration and signaling have been studied mainly for fibroblasts in vitro. The relevance for beta 1-dependent in vivo migration of lymphoid cells has not been assessed. To study this, we transfected beta 1 mutants into beta 1-deficient double knockout (DKO) ESb lymphoma cells, and tested the capacity of the cells to metastasize to liver and spleen. This was compared to alpha 4 beta 1-dependent invasion into cell monolayers in vitro and Mn2+-induced adhesion to fibronectin. Deletion of the five C-terminal residues or mutation of both threonines T788 and T789 to alanines blocked invasion and metastasis and greatly reduced adhesion, in line with known in vitro effects. However, mutations of the NPXY motif tyrosines had unexpected consequences. A Y783F mutation had no effect at all, but a Y783,795F double mutation strongly reduced Mn2+-induced adhesion, whereas it had limited effects on invasion and metastasis. Furthermore, cells expressing a beta 1 beta 2 chimeric subunit, which contains phenylalanines in the NPXY/F motifs, adhered poorly but invasion and metastasis was fully restored to the same levels as for cells expressing wild-type beta 1. We conclude that part of the functions of the beta 1 cytoplasmic domain that are required for adhesion are not essential for beta 1-dependent invasion and metastasis.

Abstract
Abstract
We previously showed that LFA-1-dependent in vitro invasion and in vivo migration of a T cell hybridoma was blocked in cells overexpressing a truncated dominant-negative ζ-associated protein (ZAP)-70. The truncated ZAP-70 also blocked LFA-1-dependent chemotaxis through ICAM-1-coated filters induced by 1 ng/ml stromal cell-derived factor-1, but not LFA-1-independent chemotaxis induced by 100 ng/ml stromal cell-derived factor-1. This suggested that LFA-1 engagement triggers a signal that amplifies a weak chemokine signal and that dominant-negative ZAP-70 blocks this LFA-1 signal. Here we show that cross-linking of part of the LFA-1 molecules with Abs causes activation of free LFA-1 molecules (not occupied by the Ab) on the same cell, which then bind to ICAM-2 on other cells. This causes cell aggregation that was also blocked by dominant-negative ZAP-70. Thus, an LFA-1 signal involving ZAP-70 activates other LFA-1 molecules, suggesting that the chemokine signal can be amplified by multiple cycles of LFA-1 activation. The chemokine and the LFA-1 signal were both blocked by a phospholipase C inhibitor and a calpain inhibitor, suggesting that one of the amplified signals is the phospholipase C-dependent activation of calpain. Finally, we show that both Src-homology 2 domains are required for inhibition of invasion, chemotaxis, and aggregation by the truncated ZAP-70, suggesting that ZAP-70 interacts with a phosphorylated immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) sequence. Remarkably, this is not an ITAM in the TCR/CD3 complex because this is not expressed by this T cell hybridoma.

Abstract
There is increasing evidence that metastasis of a tumor cell (its ability to induce the "development of a tumor" at distant sites following intravasation) is manifested only after homing to distant site(s). All tumor cells, however, do not necessarily undergo uncontrolled cellular division to form secondary tumors once they have "homed" to a target site. One of the major rate-limiting steps in metastasis is in fact related to the ability of the extravasated tumor cells to find an appropriate "nest", where favorable growth conditions will allow them to form a secondary tumor upon massive cell division (1). But to establish such a favorable nest (referred herein as the "nidification" process), tumor cells must penetrate deep into the stroma of the target tissue. This process is facilitated when tumor cells produce of specific proteases, which degrade structural proteins of the extracellular matrix (2,3). The production of proteases by stromal cells can also occur; these enzymes will degrade stroma surrounding the tumor cells, resulting in a massive remodeling of the local parenchyma that may interfere with the vital functions of a target organ as well as help nidification (4). In this review, we focus our attention on post-extravasation events involving adhesion molecules and MMP in the metastatic process of lymphoma cells. We propose that during dissemination of LFA-1-positive lymphoma cells to peripheral organs, the interaction between lymphoma cells and vascular endothelial cells upregulates the local expression of MMP and TIMPs. Since control of lymphoma metastasis appears to occur at the post-extravasation level, we hypothesize that in addition to extravasation, adhesion molecules are implicated in the control of post-extravasation events.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze beta-integrin expression in non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHLs) in order to assess its distribution among histologic subtypes and correlate with clinical features and outcome. PATIENTS AND METHODS The expression of alpha2 through alpha6 and beta1 common chains of very late activation antigen (VLA ) molecules and alphaL (CD11a) and beta2 common (CD18) chains of leukocyte function-associated antigen 1 molecule were studied in 137 patients with NHL. Immunostaining was performed by a streptavidin-biotin alkaline phosphatase method, and integrin expression was semiquantitatively assessed. Correlation with clinical features was analyzed in 80 patients consecutively diagnosed as having immunocytoma (five cases), follicular lymphoma (19 cases), mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL; four cases), diffuse large-cell lymphoma (DLCL; 40 cases), lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL; six cases), anaplastic Ki-1-positive lymphoma (one case), and other peripheral T-cell lymphoma (five cases). RESULTS MCL cells did not show alpha2 and alpha6 expression, whereas most expressed weak to moderate levels of alpha3, alpha4, and alpha5. LL mostly showed alpha2 to alpha5 expression, whereas alpha6 was observed in seven of 11 cases (higher proportion than that shown in other subgroups). Alpha chains of VLA molecules were present more frequently in T-cell than in B-cell lymphomas. Patients with moderate/strong alpha4, CD11a, and beta2 common chain expression presented more frequently with advanced stage and bone marrow infiltration. Moderate/strong alpha4, alpha5, and beta1 common chain expression correlated with extranodal involvement. In the subset of B-cell DLCL patients, negative/weak expression of alpha3 and alpha4 chains was related to a higher complete response rate. Moreover, negative or weak expression of alpha2, alpha3, alpha4, and beta1( )common chain had favorable significance for overall and failure-free survivals. CONCLUSION In NHL, beta-integrin expression is related to histologic subtype. The expression pattern of these molecules probably influences disease dissemination and patients' prognoses.

Abstract
Benzoporphyrin derivative monoacid (BPD-MA) photosensitization was examined for its effects on cellular adhesion of a human ovarian cancer cell line, OVCAR 3, to extracellular matrix (ECM) components. Mild BPD-MA photosensitization (approximately 85% cell survival) of OVCAR 3 transiently decreased adhesion to collagen IV, fibronectin, laminin and vitronectin to a greater extent than could be attributed to cell death. The loss in adhesiveness was accompanied by a loss of beta1 integrin-containing focal adhesion plaques (FAPs), although beta1 subunits were still recognized by monoclonal antibody directed against human beta1 subunits. In vivo BPD-MA photosensitization decreased OVCAR 3 adhesiveness as well. Photosensitized adhesion was reduced in the presence of sodium azide and enhanced in deuterium oxide, suggesting mediation by singlet oxygen. Co-localization studies of BPD-MA and Rhodamine 123 showed that the photosensitizer was largely mitochondrial, but also exhibited extramitochondrial, intracellullar, diffuse cytosolic fluorescence. Taken together, these data show that intracellular damage mediated by BPD-PDT remote from the FAP site can affect cellular-ECM interactions and result in loss of FAP formation. This may have an impact on long-term effects of photodynamic therapy. The topic merits further investigation.

Abstract
The ZAP-70 tyrosine kinase is essential for T cell activation by the T cell receptor. We show that ZAP-70 is also required for migration of T cells that is dependent on the integrin LFA-1. Invasion of TAM2D2 T cell hybridoma cells into fibroblast monolayers, which is LFA-1-dependent, was blocked by overexpression of dominant-negative ZAP-70 and by piceatannol but not by herbimycin A. The Syk inhibitor piceatannol blocks the Syk homologue ZAP-70, which is expressed by TAM2D2 cells, with the same dose dependence as the inhibition of invasion. Dominant-negative ZAP-70 completely inhibited the extensive metastasis formation of TAM2D2 cells to multiple organs upon i.v. injection into mice. Migration of TAM2D2 cells through filters coated with the LFA-1 ligand ICAM-1, induced by 1 ng/ml of the chemokine SDF-1, was blocked by anti-LFA-1 mAb and also abrogated by dominant-negative ZAP-70 and piceatannol. In contrast, migration induced by 100 ng/ml SDF-1 was independent of both LFA-1 and ZAP-70. LFA-1 cross-linking induced tyrosine phosphorylation, which was blocked by dominant-negative ZAP-70 and piceatannol. We conclude that LFA-1 engagement triggers ZAP-70 activity that is essential for LFA-1-dependent migration.

Abstract
Abstract
It has been hypothesized that the intercellular adhesion receptors used by normal cells could also be operative in the spreading of circulating malignant cells to target organs. In the present work, we show that genetic ablation of the ICAM-1 gene confers resistance to T cell lymphoma metastasis. Following i.v. inoculation of LFA-1-expressing malignant T lymphoma cells, we found that ICAM-1-deficient mice were almost completely resistant to the development of lymphoid malignancy compared with wild-type control mice that developed lymphoid tumors in the kidneys, spleen, and liver. Histologic examinations confirmed that ICAM-1-deficient mice, in contrast to wild-type mice, had no evidence of lymphoid infiltration in these organs. The effect of ICAM-1 on T cell lymphoma metastasis was observed in two distinct strains of ICAM-1-deficient animals. Nonetheless, lymphoma cells migrated with the same efficiency to target organs in both normal and ICAM-1-deficient mice, indicating not only that ICAM-1 expression by the host is essential in lymphoma metastasis, but also that this is so at stages subsequent to homing and extravasation into target organs. These results point to posthoming events as a focus of future investigation on the control of metastasis mediated by ICAM-1.

Abstract
Adhesion molecules are involved in lymphoma dissemination. Antibodies to adhesion molecules may block tumor metastasis. However, such antibody treatment may block as well normal functions of the immune system. We tested the hypothesis that a bispecific antibody with specificity for an adhesion molecule and for a tumor specific antigen binds preferentially to tumor cells which coexpress both antigens and hence selectively blocks adhesion. A bispecific antibody was developed by somatic cell hybridization of two hybridomas, one producing a monoclonal antibody against the immunoglobulin idiotypic determinant of the murine B cell lymphoma 38C-13 and the other producing an antibody against the alpha subunit (CD11a) of the adhesion molecule LFA-1. The bispecific antibody, anti-idiotype x anti-LFA-1, was purified by affinity chromatography. The dual specificity of the hybrid hybridoma product was demonstrated by a radioimmunoassay devised for detection of bifunctional activity. The bispecific antibody was shown by flow cytometry to bind efficiently to 38C-13 cells that coexpress idiotype and LFA-1. It bound only weakly to idiotype-negative variants of 38C-13 that express only LFA-1. In binding assays to immobilized ICAM-1, the anti-idiotype x anti-LFA-1 was highly active in blocking 38C-13 cell adhesion. However, it did not effect adhesion of idiotype-negative tumor cells or of normal T lymphocytes. In summary, the bispecific antibody preferentially blocks adhesion of cells that coexpress the tumor specific antigen and the adhesion receptor. The present approach may provide a general way for the selective adhesion blockade of a specific cell population.

Abstract
The study of cellular adhesion molecules offers crucial understanding of cellular interactions. Their name implies an underestimation of their function, as intercellular glue. In fact, they play vital roles in tissue development and intra- and intercellular signaling. In neurology, cellular adhesion molecules are already providing welcome new insight into neurodevelopmental anomalies, autoimmune demyelination, and invasive tumours. Cellular adhesion molecule manipulation has led to several therapeutic options which are the subject of ongoing clinical investigation.

Abstract
T-cell hybridomas metastasize widely, and the extent of dissemination correlates with invasiveness in fibroblast cultures. Previously, we provided evidence that both metastasis and in vitro invasion require activation of LFA-1, induced by G-protein-transduced signals triggered by as yet unidentified factors. We show here that LFA-1-mediated adhesion of TAM2D2 T-cell hybridoma cells to ICAM-1 can in fact be induced by direct activation of G-proteins using AIF-4, to the same extent as by using PMA or Mn2+. We assessed effects of protein kinase C (PKC), tyrosine kinase (TK), PI3-kinase (PI3K), and phospholipase C (PLC) inhibitors. Both AIF-4-induced adhesion and invasion were completely blocked by the TK inhibitor genistein and partially blocked by the PI3K inhibitor wortmannin, but not influenced by PKC inhibitor GF109203X. Downregulation of PKC did not affect invasion or adhesion induced by AIF-4 either. In contrast, GF109203X and PKC downregulation blocked PMA-induced adhesion, but genistein and wortmannin had no effect. Invasion and both AIF-4- and PMA-induced adhesion were completely blocked by the PLC inhibitor U73122. Mn(2+)-induced adhesion, which was not or was only partially blocked by the other inhibitors, was delayed by U73122, and spreading of Mn(2+)-treated cells was completely prevented by U73122. However, PLC activity during adhesion was not detected. We conclude that signals required for invasion and G-protein-induced adhesion are similar and are distinct from PKC-induced adhesion, and that in all cases PLC is likely to be activated, but is probably too local and/or transient to be detected.

Abstract
Interleukin-6 (IL-6)-producing abilities of plastic-adherent and plastic-non-adherent P815 clones were investigated in connection with the liver metastasis. Most adherent clones produced IL-6 at high level (over 10 ng/10(5) cells per 48 h), and they coincided with highly liver-metastatic clones. The remaining adherent and all the non-adherent clones tested produced IL-6 at low level (under 1.5 ng/10(5) cells), and they coincided with the low or non-liver-metastatic clones. The IL-6 production was greatly enhanced by IL-1 alpha, but not by IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha or interferon-gamma.

Abstract
The leukocyte integrin gene, CD11c, encodes the chi subunit of the p150,95 (CD11c.CD18) receptor. Expression of the CD11c gene is predominately seen in monocytes, but has also been detected in some B- and T-cell neoplasms and in some large-cell lymphomas of uncertain origin. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms that govern the expression of CD11c, we have cloned and characterized the promoter region of this gene. The DNase I footprint and mobility shift analyses revealed five sites within the -86 to +40 region that interact with nuclear proteins. The -62 to -44 region contains two consensus sequences for AP1 (referred to as AP1-1 and AP1-2) and were shown to bind purified c-jun protein. Co-transfection of c-fos and c-jun expression constructs with a CD11c promoter-CAT fusion into HL60 cells led to a 6.7-fold increase in CD11c promoter activity. We show that c-fos and c-jun mediate their effects through both AP1-1 and AP1-2 which function in an additive manner. Regions -42 to -34 and -13 to -5 contain consensus sequences for Ets factors (referred to as Ets C and Ets A, respectively). Deletion of Ets resulted in a significant reduction in phorbol ester-induced expression of CD11c, whereas deletion of Ets A led to only a modest loss in CD11c expression. We show that Ets C cooperates with the AP1 sites to regulate CD11c expression.

Abstract
CD44 splice variants have been shown to be involved in metastasis of carcinomas. In addition, the standard form of CD44 has been implicated in metastasis, particularly of melanomas and lymphomas. To investigate this, we have generated a CD44-negative mutant of the highly metastatic murine MDAY-D2 lymphosarcoma. The two CD44 alleles of this diploid cell line were sequentially disrupted by homologous recombination, using isogenic CD44 genomic constructs interrupted by a neomycin or hygromycin resistance-conferring gene. The resulting double knockout (DKO) cells had completely lost the capacity to bind to immobilized hyaluronic acid, but did not differ from MDAY-D2 cells in integrin expression or in vitro growth. Subcutaneous (s.c.) growth potential and metastatic capacity of MDAY-D2 and DKO cells were assessed by s.c. and i.v. injection of the lowest cell dose (10(3) or 10(4), respectively) that gave rise to tumor formation by MDAY-D2 cells in approximately 100% of the mice. Quite unexpectedly, we observed no difference at all in either s.c. growth rate or local invasion into surrounding tissues between MDAY-D2 cells and the CD44-negative DKO cells. Also hematogenous metastasis formation upon i.v. injection was similar: both parental and DKO cells metastasized extensively to the spleen, liver, and bone marrow. We conclude that, at least for these MDAY-D2 lymphosarcoma cells, the standard form of CD44 is dispensable for tumor growth and metastasis. Our results show that targeted disruption of genes in tumor cells is a feasible approach to study their role in tumorigenesis and metastasis.

Abstract
The integrins are a family of integral membrane receptors that participate in binding to various extracellular and cell surface proteins during adhesion, migration, and homing of normal and neoplastic cells. In this study, we characterized the involvement of integrins in mediating the growth of an adhesion-dependent gastric adenocarcinoma line, ST2. This line was distinguished and selected for study based on its inability to grow when suspended in soft agar or plated on poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate)-coated dishes. ST2 cells arrested in G0/G1 of the cell cycle when deprived of adhesion to substrate. Using purified matrix components, collagen was found to be highly active in promoting beta 1 integrin-mediated cell attachment and spreading. Subsequent to spreading on collagen, the cells were released from G0/G1 block and progressed into S phase. Monoclonal antibodies to alpha 2 or beta 1 integrin blocked the reinduction of both cell spreading and entry into S phase. These studies suggest that during the metastatic process, integrin receptor interaction with the insoluble matrix may be an important step leading to proliferation of some tumors.

Abstract
Murine ESb and MDAY-D2 lymphoma cells are highly metastatic, in particular to the liver, and are highly invasive in hepatocyte cultures. This may involve adhesion to hepatocyte surface-associated fibronectin (Kemperman et al., 1994, Cell Adh. and Communic. 2:45). Both ESb and MDAY-D2 cells express the fibronectin receptor alpha 4 beta 1, and MDAY-D2 cells in addition also alpha 5 beta 1. Yet, adhesion of ESb cells to fibronectin was low, and MDAY-D2 cells did not adhere at all, but adhesion of both cells was stimulated by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) and Mn2+. In ESb cells, this adhesion was mediated by alpha 4 beta 1. In MDAY-D2 cells, however, only alpha 5 beta 1 was involved, despite alpha 4 beta 1 levels similar to ESb cells. The alpha 4 beta 1 integrin was functional since it mediated adhesion of MDAY-D2 cells to VCAM-1. An alpha 5 beta 1-negative variant of MDAY-D2 adhered to fibronectin and this was mediated by alpha 4 beta 1. These results indicate that alpha 4 beta 1 function in these cells is suppressed in the presence of alpha 5 beta 1. Adhesion of ESb cells to hepatocytes was inhibited by anti-alpha 4 antibody, but only by 30%, and fibronectin adhesion was found to have no role in the interaction of MDAY-D2 cells with hepatocytes. This suggests that alpha 4 beta 1 and alpha 5 beta 1 function is not activated during this interaction. The 9EG7 antibody against mouse beta 1 integrin was described to inhibit beta 1 integrins (Lenter et al., 1993, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90, 9051). In contrast, we observed that 9EG7 stimulated beta 1-integrin function: Adhesion of ESb and MDAY-D2 cells not only to fibronectin, but also to laminin was induced or enhanced.

Abstract
The interactions between tumor cells and endothelium play a key role in the process of tumor growth, local invasion, and distant metastasis. In the present study, we examined the adhesion of C6 glioma cells to bovine endothelial cell (EC) monolayers and defined the cell adhesion molecules acting between these cells. Pretreatment of the EC monolayer with cytokines, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, interleukin (IL)-1 beta, and interferon (INF)-gamma, significantly increased the adhesion of C6 glioma cells to the EC monolayer. The effect lasted more than 24 hours and was protein-synthesis dependent. The adhesion of C6 glioma cells to TNF-activated ECs was blocked by the monoclonal antibody to the intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) or beta 2 integrin, whereas that of melanoma cells was not. These findings provide evidence that ICAM-1 and beta 2 integrin function as inducible cell surface molecules that can support the adhesion of C6 glioma cells to ECs, and may contribute to the characteristic growth of glial tumors in vivo.

Abstract
We have reported previously that the integrin LFA-1 is essential for metastasis of T-cell hybridomas to the liver. We show here that hepatocytes isolated from normal non-inflamed rat liver express intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) at the dorsal surface and more prominently at the lateral and substratum-adherent surfaces. Anti-rat ICAM-1 mAb inhibited adhesion of TAM8C4 T-cell hybridoma cells to hepatocytes. Invasion between hepatocytes was not affected, but this is probably due to lack of penetration of the mAb between the hepatocytes. In all hepatocyte-adherent TAM8C4 cells, LFA-1 was concentrated at the adhesion site. Redistribution of ICAM-1 to the interacting hepatocyte membrane was also seen, but only for part of the adherent TAM8C4 cells. LFA-1 was highly concentrated on pseudopods of invading TAM8C4 cells inserted between hepatocytes, and on the upper surface of invaded TAM8C4 cells located under the hepatocytes. ICAM-1 was concentrated in the hepatocyte membrane overlying TAM8C4 cells located underneath the monolayer. These results suggests that ICAM-1 is of major importance for liver invasion by these lymphoma cells. For optimal adhesion to ICAM-1, LFA-1 on T-cell hybridomas requires activation, which apparently occurs upon contact with cell layers that are invaded (G. La Riviere et al., J. Cell Sci. 107, 551–559, 1994). LFA-1 can be activated artificially by Mn2+. To study LFA-1 redistribution upon ICAM-1 interaction with higher resolution, we performed immuno-EM on cells before and after Mn(2+)-induced adhesion and spreading on immobilized ICAM-1. By immune fluorescence, LFA-1 was observed to redistribute to the ICAM-1-adherent surface, and to be concentrated in lamellipodia of spreading TAM8C4 cells. By immuno-EM, LFA-1 was localized in microclusters of approximately 10 gold particles. This was seen in cells fixed in suspension, and the size of these clusters did not change upon adhesion to ICAM-1. LFA-1 was present at high density in thin filopodia, but again in microclusters of similar size. Comparable results were obtained with a cytotoxic T-cell clone. We conclude that Mn(2+)-induced activation of LFA-1 is not associated with the formation or enlargement of LFA-1 clusters.

Abstract
Using proviral tagging in combination with in vitro selection for invasiveness, we have identified a gene, designated Tiam-1, that affects invasion. In the selected invasive T lymphoma variants, proviral insertions were found within coding exons of the Tiam-1 gene, resulting in both truncated 5'-end and 3'-end transcripts that give rise to N- and C-terminal Tiam-1 protein fragments. In one invasive variant, amplification of the Tiam-1 locus was observed with concomitant increase in the amount of normal Tiam-1 protein. Cell clones that were invasive in vitro produced experimental metastases in nude mice, and transfection of truncated Tiam-1 cDNAs into noninvasive cells made these cells invasive. The predicted Tiam-1 protein harbors a Dbl- and Pleckstrin-homologous domain, which it shares with GDP-GTP exchangers for Rho-like proteins that have been implicated in cytoskeletal organization.

Abstract
The cell lines TA3/Ha and TA3/St are derived from the same tumor, grow both in suspension and form liver metastases upon intraportal injection. We have studied the interaction of these cell lines with hepatocytes, which is likely to be relevant for liver metastasis formation. Recently we have shown that the integrin alpha 6 beta 4 is involved in adhesion of TA3/Ha cells to hepatocytes. However, we show here that the alpha 6 beta 4-specific antibodies, that inhibit adhesion of TA3/Ha cells, did not affect adhesion of TA3/St cells to hepatocytes. The beta 4 subunit, present at high levels on TA3/Ha cells, was found to be expressed at a much lower level by TA3/St cells. In contrast, TA3/St cells express much more of the beta 1-integrin subunit than TA3/Ha cells. We assessed whether these differences in integrin expression are responsible for the different adhesion mechanisms used by these cell lines. We show that alpha 5 beta 1, which is expressed by TA3/St cells, and not by TA3/Ha cells, is involved in TA3/St adhesion to fibronectin that is associated with the hepatocyte surface. Since fibronectin is the main extracellular matrix component present on the hepatocyte surface underneath the sinusoidal endothelium, alpha 5 beta 1 may be particularly important for metastasis formation in the liver, as compared to other organs.

Abstract
We have suggested previously that induction of T-cell proliferative hyporesponsiveness is associated with a defective adhesive T-cell-antigen-presenting cell (APC) interaction. In the previous study, the hyporesponsiveness was allospecific, implying that a T-cell receptor-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) interaction had occurred. Therefore, we hypothesized that this type of non-adhesive T-cell-APC interaction might induce T-cell tolerance rather than activation. This hypothesis has now been tested further in the present study, using two experimental approaches. Firstly, L cells, which express a T-cell receptor ligand, i.e. MHC class II molecules, but lack the capacity to bind to T cells and do not express the crucial receptor/counter receptor lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1)/intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) pair, also induced non-allospecific T-cell proliferative hyporesponsiveness; this was not due to any direct inhibitory effect on the T cells. Secondly, monoclonal antibodies (mAb) directed to LFA-1 and ICAM-1 were used to disrupt T-cell-APC adhesion specifically, while allowing for T-cell receptor-MHC interaction to occur. The results of this new study suggest that the non-allospecific T-cell proliferative hyporesponsiveness induced was a function of direct T-cell inhibitory effects of these mAb. Taken together, these experiments add further evidence to support the notion that accessory cells which engage T-cell receptors without providing the necessary co-stimulatory signals induce T cells which are in a state of functional 'paralysis' with respect to the antigen which the T-cell receptor recognizes.

Abstract
Pertussis toxin (PT) inhibits invasiveness of T-cell hybridomas in vitro and metastasis formation in vivo. We present evidence for the hypothesis that PT interferes with functional activation of LFA-1. Invasion by TAM2D2 T-cell hybridoma cells of fibroblast monolayers was completely blocked by PT pretreatment, but the cells regained invasiveness in the presence of Mn2+, which activates LFA-1. This invasion was blocked by anti-LFA-1 mAb, and Mn2+ did not stimulate invasiveness of LFA-1-deficient TAM2D2 mutants. TAM2D2 cells did not adhere to surfaces coated with the LFA-1 counterstructure ICAM-1, but Mn2+ induced adhesion. Hence, LFA-1 on TAM2D2 cells requires activation before it can participate in the invasion process. The hypothesis is further supported by the slightly different results obtained with the TAM8C4 T-cell hybridoma. PT inhibited invasion strongly but not completely. This reduced invasion was increased by Mn2+. TAM8C4 cells did adhere to ICAM-1, but Mn2+ enhanced adhesion. Thus, part of LFA-1 on TAM8C4 cells is constitutively active, allowing for some PT-insensitive invasion, but further activation is required for optimal adhesion and invasion. PT blocks G-protein-mediated signals, suggesting that an extracellular factor is involved. This is not a serum component or an autocrine motility factor, since the PT effect was serum-independent, and PT did not inhibit motility. Therefore, it is probably produced by the fibroblasts, and either secreted or associated with the cell surface. These results are in line with the hypothesis that a fibroblast constituent activates LFA-1 via a PT-sensitive G-protein and thus stimulates invasion of T-cell hybridomas into the fibroblast monolayer.
