Surface Mol (CD11b/CD18) glycoprotein is up-modulated by neutrophils recruited to sites of inflammation in vivo

Inasmuch as the recruitment of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) to inflammatory foci in vivo involves adhesion-dependent events (e.g., margination, diapedesis, and directed migration), we sought to characterize the relationship between the local accumulation of PMNs in sterile peritonitis and their surface expression of the adhesion-promoting plasma membrane glycoprotein. Mol (CD11b/ CD18). In an immunofluorescence analysis of PMNs isolated from rats injected intraperitoneally with sterile 1% glycogen solution, we detected a significant enhancement of surface Mol expression by exudative peritoneal PMNs. In contrast, no significant rise in Mol expression was noted over time by circulating intravascular PMNs (isolated simultaneously). However, these intravascular PMNs had the capacity to increase their surface Mol density upon exposure to peritoneal fiuid supernatant at 37°C. These results demonstrate that PMNs at sites of inflammation in vivo do up-modulate their surface expression of the adhesion-promoting Mol glycoprotein during their recruitment from the circulating, intravascular leukocyte pool.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/44502/1/10753_2004_Article_BF00916757.pd
