Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the influences of bypass-activated complement and TNF-? on intercellular adhesion molecule 1(ICAM-1) expression in endothelial cells, and polymorphonuclear neutrophil-endothelial cell (PMN-EC) adhesion. METHODS: In vitro, zymosan-activated human serum(ZAHS) and/or TNF-? directly stimulated the HUVECS monolayers. PMN-EC adhesion percentage was measured, and modified whole-cell ELISA was used for measurement of ICAM-1. RESULTS: ZAHS alone resulted in no significant change in the degree of PMN adhesion and the level of ICAM-1. Activation of HUVECS with TNF-? followed by ZAHS stimulation resulted in greater increase in PMN-EC adhesion and ICAM-1 expression, as compared with the activation with TNF-? alone. CONCLUSION: Bypass-activated complement can promote ICAM-1 expression and neutrophil -endothelium adhesion induced by TNF-?, and so it is effective for promoting inflammation.
