Cell adhesion molecules, leukocyte trafficking, and strategies to reduce leukocyte infiltration.
Leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions are mediated by various cell adhesion molecules. These interactions are important for leukocyte extravasation and trafficking in all domestic animal species. An initial slowing of leukocytes on the vascular endothelium is mediated by selectins. This event is followed by (1) activation of beta2 integrins after leukocyte exposure to cytokines and pro-inflam...
متن کاملLeukocyte - Endothelia 1 Adhesion Molecules
I N 1985, a review article appeared in this journal that examined the interactions of leukocytes with vascular endothelium during an immune or inflammatory response.’ The basic physiology of leukocyte emigration as well as disease states in which alterations of leukocyte-endothelial interactions may contribute to pathology were discussed. Since then there has been an explosion of interest in th...
متن کاملLeukocyte Adhesion Molecules in Diabetic Retinopathy
Diabetes is a systemic disease that causes a number of metabolic and physiologic abnormalities. One of the major microvascular complications of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy (DR), a leading cause of blindness in people over age 50. The mechanisms underlying the development of DR are not fully understood; however, extensive studies have recently implicated chronic, low-grade inflammation in t...
متن کاملAdhesion to the Vascular Endothelium Cell Adhesion Molecules Mediate Radiation-induced Leukocyte
The predominant early histological changes in irradiated tissues are edema and leukocyte infiltration. Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are required for the extravasation ofleukocytes from the circulation. To study the role of CAMSin the pathogenesis of radiation-mediated inflammation, we quantified the expression of P-selectin, E-selectin, intercellular adhe sion molecule-i (ICAM-1), and vascula...
متن کاملEndothelial heterogeneity and adhesion molecules N-glycosylation: implications in leukocyte trafficking in inflammation.
Inflammation is a major contributing element to a host of diseases with the interaction between leukocytes and the endothelium being key in this process. Much is understood about the nature of the adhesion molecule proteins expressed on any given leukocyte and endothelial cell that modulates adhesive interactions. Although it is appreciated that these proteins are heavily glycosylated, relative...
