Roles for integrin very late activation antigen-4 in stroma-dependent erythropoiesis.
Adhesion molecules are required for development of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in the respective hematopoietic microenvironments. We previously showed that development of the erythroid progenitor cells is dependent on their direct adhesion to the stroma cells established from the erythropoietic organs. In this stroma-dependent erythropoiesis, we examined the role of adhesion molecul...
متن کاملMonocyte migration to arthritis in the rat utilizes both CD11/CD18 and very late activation antigen 4 integrin mechanisms
In human and experimental models of arthritis, blood monocytes migrate into the inflamed synovium and joint space. The mechanisms required for monocyte migration across the vascular endothelium in joints is poorly defined. Radiolabeled rat blood monocytes were used to measure monocyte migration to the inflamed joints of rats with adjuvant arthritis, and the role of monocyte adhesion molecules w...
متن کاملVery Late Antigen 4 - dependent Adhesion and Costimulation of Resting Human T Cells by the Bacterial / 31 Integrin Ligand Invasin
Bacteria and viruses often use the normal biological properties of host adhesion molecules to infect relevant host cells. The outer membrane bacterial protein invasin mediates the attachment of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis to human cells. In vitro studies have shown that four members of the very late antigen (VLA) integrin family of adhesion molecules, VLA-3, VLA-4, VLA-5, and VLA-6, can bind to...
متن کاملVery Late Antigen-4 (α4β1 Integrin) Targeted PET Imaging of Multiple Myeloma
Biomedical imaging techniques such as skeletal survey and (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)/Positron Emission Tomography (PET) are frequently used to diagnose and stage multiple myeloma (MM) patients. However, skeletal survey has limited sensitivity as it can detect osteolytic lesions only after 30-50% cortical bone destruction, and FDG is a marker of cell metabolism that has limited sensitivity f...
متن کاملA monoclonal antibody recognizing very late activation antigen-4 inhibits eosinophil accumulation in vivo
Using an in vivo test system, the role of the beta 1 integrin very late activation antigen-4 (VLA-4) in eosinophil accumulation in allergic and nonallergic inflammatory reactions was investigated. Eosinophil infiltration and edema formation were measured as the local accumulation of intravenously injected 111In-labeled eosinophils and 125I-human serum albumin. The inflammatory reactions investi...
