Leukocyte - 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 کاملStructure and function of the leukocyte adhesion molecules CD11/CD18.
INCE THE EARLY studies of Metchnikoff in the S 1880s,’ a large body of data has been accumulated that established a crucial role for circulating polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) in host defense against pyogenic infections.’*2 These studies also amply documented a pathogenic role for these cells in host tissue damage in many noninfectious diseases.2 The same cellular processes underlie this co...
متن کاملEndothelial adhesion molecules and leukocyte integrins in preeclamptic patients.
Endothelial cell activation is important in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia; however, the nature of the activation is unknown. We investigated 22 patients with preeclampsia. 29 normotensive pregnancies, and 18 nonpregnant women to test the hypothesis that serum from preeclamptic patients induces expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) ...
متن کاملPain-related activation of leukocyte cellular adhesion molecules: preliminary findings.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Acute adrenergic stressors have been found to activate neuroendocrine pathways that can alter leukocyte migration and activity. Leukocyte migration is known to affect the pathophysiology of inflammatory disease processes. This study examined the effects of acute experimental pain on catecholamine and cortisol levels and leukocyte expression of cellular adhesion molecules. METH...
