Abstract

We examined the effect of dibutyryl cAMP (dbcAMP) on the expression of LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18), Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18), and VLA-4 (CD49/CD29) and on eosinophilic differentiation of a human leukemia cell line, EoL-1. Dibutyryl cAMP induced eosinophilic differentiation of EoL-1 cells from 6-9 days after the start of culture with down-regulation of CD11a, CD18, and CD49 expression and up-regulation of CD11b expression. Changes in integrin expression, except for CD18, were seen predominantly in the fraction containing eosinophilic granule-positive cells, suggesting that the changes were dependent on eosinophilic differentiation. On the other hand, dbcAMP-induced changes of integrin expression were reversible and were not seen on day 9 when dbcAMP was removed on day 3, whereas eosinophilic differentiation was still present. A combination of G-CSF and TNF-alpha, which also induced eosinophilic differentiation of EoL-1 cells, increased CD11b expression slightly but had no significant effect on the expression of the other integrins. Butyrate and PMA up-regulated CD11b expression without eosinophilic differentiation. The results collectively suggest that the regulation of integrin expression on EoL-1 cells is partly dependent and partly not depe...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
