Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the adhesion between lymphocytes and extracellular matrix (ECM) in delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) in mice as well as the regulatory effect of several cytokines on it. METHODS: DTH was induced by the application of picryl chloride (PCl) to mice that had been sensitized twice by PCl, followed by isolating the spleen lymphocytes at different times. The adhesion of spleen lymphocytes to fibronectin or typeⅠcollagen were examined. In some cases, spleen lymphocytes obtained at 18 h were incubated with various concentrations of IL-2, IFN-?, and TNF-? for 4 h at 37℃ before the adhesion assay. T cells purified from the spleen lymphocytes were also used for the assay in the presence of TNF-?. RESULTS: The adhesion of spleen lymphocytes to ECM began to increase at 6 h after PCl challenge, reached a peak at 18 h, then decreased and returned to normal level at 36 h. IL-2 significantly increased the adhesion of lymphocytes to ECM at a dose of 1?10 5 U/L and TNF-? enhanced the adhesion in a concentration-dependent manner. The combined use of TNF-? and IFN-? showed a significantly enhanced adhesion. TNF-? was more effective to accelerate the adhesion of spleen T Cells than that of total spleen lymphocytes. CONCLUSION: In the process of DTH, the adhesion of lymphocytes to ECM was regulated by several cytokines and associated with the development of inflammation.
