Adhesion Proteins
7
Adhesion Proteins These binding reactions are controlled by a varying array of adhesion molecules on the surface of the T lymphocyte that recognize a complementary array of adhesion molecules on the surface of the cells with which the T cell interacts.
8
Adhesion Proteins The majority of adhesion molecules fall into one of four families; cadherins. integrins, immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF), selectins
9
Adhesion Proteins cadherins.
The majority of adhesion molecules fall into one of four families; cadherins. integrins, immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF), selectins
10
CADHERINS They play a fundamental role in maintaining the integrity of multicellular structures and are important in the diapedesis of lymphocytes and neutrophils

cadherins
12
CADHERINS There is strong evidence to suggest that cadherins may be involved in invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. Finally, cadherins may play a role in intercellular signalling due to the discovery of kinases regulating cytoplasmic cadherin phosphorylation.

Integrins Integrins are a large family of heterodimeric proteins that play key roles in extracellular matrix formation, morphogenesis, and cell adhesion. There are 17 alpha subunit types and 8 beta subunit types. Depending on the association of alpha and beta subunits, integrins can bind to collagen, laminin, vitronectin, and fibronectin.

Integrins Page 120
21
Integrins Integrins are present in a low-affinity state in resting T cells. Chemokines produced by the antigen-presenting cell (APC) and signals induced by the TCR when it recognizes antigen both act on integrins and lead to their clustering and to conformational changes that increase the affinity of the integrins for their ligands. As a result, the integrins bind with high avidity to their ligands on APCs and thus promote T cell activation.
22
Integrins In the immune system, the most important integrins, those of the b1, b2, and b7 subfamilies, participate in T-cell migration and provide stimulatory signals for T-cell proliferation and effector functions.
23
INTEGRINS Lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1, CD11a/CD18). This is thought to be the most important adhesion molecule for lymphocyte activation as antibodies to LFA-1 effectively inhibit the activation of both naive and armed effector T cells.
24
INTEGRINS Expression of the b1 integrins increases significantly late in T-cell activation, and they are thus often called VLA for very late antigen and play an important part in directing armed effector T cells to their target tissues.
25
INTEGRINS Leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) is a rare inherited disorder in which key functions of leukocytes are impaired, notably the migration of neutrophils to sites of extravascaular inflammation

IgSF members are widely utilized in two areas involving complex interactions among a diverse array of cell types; during nervous system development and in the regulation of the immune system

IMMUNOGLOBULIN SUPERFAMILY
ICAM-1 is expressed by antigen presenting cells. Induced or upregulated by IFNg, IL-1b, TNFa and LPS. Ligands are CD11a/CD18, CD11b/CD18, CD43 (mucin-like vascular addressin). Adhesion is calcium dependent

Role of Adhesion Molecules in Pathology States
41
Extravasation First of these is mediated by selectins
Second step depends upon LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) and CR3 (CD11b/CD18 Third step, the leukocyte crosses the endothelial wall, or extravasates Fourth step is the migration due to chemoattractant molecules (IL-8)

Adhesion Molecules and Allograft Rejection
E-selectin and VCAM-1 expression were associated with markers of rejection Anti-CD11/CD18 mAbs prevented early rejection anti-ICAM-1 could induce allograft tolerance
45
Reperfusion Injury Neutrophil the CD11a/CD18 is expressed subsequently to reperfusion The cytokines involved in the modulation of CD11a/CD18 expression, are PAF. C5a, IL-1, TNF, IL-6, and IL-8. The ICAM-1 can be controlled by IL-1, TNF, and IFNg
