Abstract

Inflammation of the human airways in diseases such as chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis with Pseudomonas endobronchial infection, and possibly asthma during late-phase reactions involves a local influx of neutrophils (PMN) that may participate in airway epithelial injury. PMN-mediated cellular injury is most efficient under conditions of PMN-target cell adhesion. PMN express adhesive glycoproteins of the CD11/CD18 family that are counter-receptors for intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), found on various cell types. We proposed that adherence by PMN to human airway epithelial cells via ICAM-1 might be an important mechanism in inflammatory airway diseases. We found that although PMN adhere poorly (less than 5%) to monolayers of human tracheal epithelial cells (TEC) in primary culture, they adhere readily (45 to 50%) to an SV40-immortalized line of human TEC, designated 9HTEo-. We also found 6-fold greater surface expression of ICAM-1 on 9HTEo- compared with primary TEC. Blocking surface ICAM-1 on 9HTEo- cells with specific monoclonal antibody inhibited PMN adherence by about 50%. Thus, ICAM-1 plays a major role in this adherence, although it is possible that other epithelial ligands contribute also. Antibodies to CD11a, CD11b, and CD18 on PMN also inhibited PMN-epithelial adherence. Treatment of primary TEC monolayers with the proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1 (IL-1) or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) caused a 3- to 4-fold increase in both cell surface ICAM-1 expression and support of PMN adhesion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
