Viscosity-independent velocity of neutrophils rolling on p-selectin in vitro or in vivo.

چکیده
OBJECTIVE To determine whether selectin-mediated leukocyte-rolling velocity in inflamed venules in vivo is determined by wall shear rate (WSR) or by wall shear stress (WSS). METHODS WSS was manipulated independently of WSR by altering the viscosity of blood plasma in mice with an isovolemic exchange of blood for low- or high-viscosity dextran solutions. Rolling of neutrophils or beads coated with P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) was reconstituted on P-selectin immobilized on the wall of a parallel plate flow chamber at two different viscosities of the perfusion medium. RESULTS Leukocytes in vivo showed no increase in rolling velocity when shear stress was doubled by doubling viscosity. Neutrophils in the parallel-plate flow chamber in vitro showed the same dependence on WSR as leukocytes in vivo, but bead-rolling velocities correlated best with WSS. Rolling leukocytes, but not beads, deformed significantly in shear flow, and deformation correlated better with WSS. CONCLUSION These data suggest leukocyte deformation during rolling offsets increased bond breakage at higher shear stress. The stable rolling velocity allows sufficient surveillance of the endothelial surface, even in venules with high WSS. doi:10.1038/sj.mm.7800165

Selectin-mediated rolling of neutrophils on immobilized platelets.
Interaction between neutrophils and platelets at the site of vascular damage or in ischaemic tissue may promote thrombosis and/or vascular occlusion. To study this interaction, we have developed a novel technique that allows visualization of adhesion of flowing neutrophils to immobilized, activated platelets. The total number of adherent neutrophils decreased with increasing wall shear stress i...
متن کاملA down-regulatable E-selectin ligand is functionally important for PSGL-1-independent leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions.
P-selectin glycoprotein-1 (PSGL-1) supports P-selectin-dependent rolling in vivo and in vitro. However, controversy exists regarding the importance of PSGL-1-dependent and -independent E-selectin rolling. Using antibodies against PSGL-1 and PSGL-1(-/-) mice, we demonstrated abolition of P-selectin-dependent rolling but only partial inhibition of E-selectin-mediated rolling in the cremaster micr...
متن کاملHEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY Sialyltransferase specificity in selectin ligand formation
Selectin ligands are glycan structures that participate in leukocyte trafficking and inflammation. At least 6 ST3Gal sialyltransferases (I-VI) have been identified that may contribute to selectin ligand formation. However, it is not known which of these sialyltransferases are involved in vivo and whether they may differentially regulate selectin function. We have produced and characterized mice...
متن کاملP-selectin mediates spontaneous leukocyte rolling in vivo.
Rolling represents the initial step leading to leukocyte extravasation from blood vessels during an inflammatory reaction. In vitro studies indicate that P-selectin could be one of the ligands on endothelium involved in the rolling phenomenon, although the molecular determinants responsible for this transient attachment in vivo are still undefined. Our objectives were to develop a blocking mono...
متن کاملRolling on E- or P-selectin induces the extended but not high-affinity conformation of LFA-1 in neutrophils.
Human blood neutrophils rolling on E- or P-selectin reduced their rolling velocity when intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 was available. Similar to mouse neutrophils, this was dependent on P-selectin glycoprotein ligand 1 (PSGL1), alpha(L)beta(2) integrin, the Src family tyrosine kinase FGR and spleen tyrosine kinase SYK. Blocking phospholipase C or p38 MAP kinase attenuated, but did not...
