CD47 and TLR-2 cross-talk regulates neutrophil transmigration.

The role of CD47 in neutrophil transmigration. Increased rate of migration correlates with increased cell surface expression of CD47.

CD47, a cell surface glycoprotein, plays an important role in modulating neutrophil (PMN) migration across endothelial and epithelial monolayers. Here we show that anti-CD47 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) delay PMN migration across collagen-coated filters or T84 epithelial monolayers toward the chemoattractant formylmethionylleucylphenylalanine (fMLP). Despite delayed transmigration by anti-CD47 ...

Peptide-mediated inhibition of neutrophil transmigration by blocking CD47 interactions with signal regulatory protein alpha.

CD47, a cell surface transmembrane Ig superfamily member, is an extracellular ligand for signal regulatory protein (SIRPalpha). Interactions between CD47 and SIRPalpha regulate many important immune cell functions including neutrophil (PMN) transmigration. Here we report identification of a novel function-blocking peptide, CERVIGTGWVRC, that structurally mimics an epitope on CD47 and binds to S...

Transmigration but Attenuates Polymorphonuclear Neutrophil CD47 Deficiency Does Not Impede

Crystallography of Biological Macromolecules

Src homology 2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase [SHP] substrate 1 (SHPS-1), a receptor-type transmembrane glycoprotein whose cytoplasmic region binds and activates the protein tyrosine phosphatases SHP-1 and SHP-2, and thereby modulates multiple cellular functions. Its extracellular region regulates intercellular communication in the neural and immune systems through its associati...

Signal-regulatory protein alpha-CD47 interactions are required for the transmigration of monocytes across cerebral endothelium.

Monocyte infiltration into inflamed tissue requires their initial arrest onto the endothelial cells (ECs), followed by firm adhesion and subsequent transmigration. Although several pairs of adhesion molecules have been shown to play a role in the initial adhesion of monocytes to ECs, the mechanism of transendothelial migration is poorly defined. In this study, we have investigated the role of s...
