ICAM-1 Clustering on Endothelial Cells Recruits VCAM-1

ICAM-1 Clustering on Endothelial Cells Recruits VCAM-1

In the initial stages of transendothelial migration, leukocytes use the endothelial integrin ligands ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 for strong adhesion. Upon adhesion of the leukocyte to endothelial ICAM-1, ICAM-1 is clustered and recruited to the adhered leukocyte, promoting strong adhesion. In this study, we provide evidence for the colocalization of VCAM-1 at sites of ICAM-1 clustering. Anti-ICAM-1 antib...

Increases in oxygen tension stimulate expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on human endothelial cells.

Leukocyte infiltration plays a major role in ischemia-associated organ dysfunction and damage. A crucial step for extravasation of white blood cells is binding of leukocyte β-integrins to endothelial adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). To test for direct effects of oxygen on this process we studied ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 expression...

Effect of Tribulus Terrestris L. on Expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, E-Selectin and Proteome Profile of Human Endothelial Cells In-Vitro

Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammation that interferes with blood arteries functions due to the accumulation of low density lipids and cholesterol. Objective: To investigate the effect of aqueous extract and saponin fraction of Tribulus terrestris L. (TT) on the proteome and expression of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascu...

The Effects of Resistance Training on VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and CRP in Diabetic Rats

Objective: Many diabetic patients are susceptible to cardiovascular diseases which are known as one of the most important causes of mortality among diabetic patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of eight weeks of resistance training on VCAM-1, ICAM-1 and CRP in diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, 24 male Sprague- Dawley diabetic rats were ...
