  1. Chapter 15 Leukocyte Activation and Migration Lymphocytes bind to the surface of a high endothelial venule (HEV) Dec 26, 2006

  2. When an infection is detected, the cells of the immune system cross the blood barrier and travel to the site of infection. How do leukocytes migrate to the tissue? 本章內容: 1. 參與白血球移動的分子及過程 2. 參與發炎反應的分子及生理變化

  3. For circulating leukocytes to enter inflamed tissue or • peripheral lymphoid organs, the cells must adhere to • and pass between the endothelial cells lining the walls • of blood vessels, a process called extravasation. • - Endothelial cells expressleukocyte-specificcell- • adhesion molecules (CAM) • CAMs on leukocytes serve to adhere to vascular • endothelial cells and to increase the strength of the • interactions between cells of the immune system, • e.g., TH – APC, TH – B, CTL – target cells.

  4. General Structures of the 4 Families ofCell-AdhesionMolecules(CAM) (ab heterodimers) sialylated CHO moiety L-selectin (CD62L) P-selectin (CD62P) E-selectin (CD62E)

  5. Cell Adhesion Molecules (CAM) (on endothelium) (on endothelium) (on neutrophil) (on leukocyte) (on inflamed endothelium) (CD54, CD102, CD50) (CD106) (lymphocyte Peyer's patch adhesion molecule-1) (on mucosal endothelium, has both mucin-like and Ig-like domains)

  6. Chemokines • Small polypeptides, most of which contain 90 – 130 a. a. residues • Control the adhesion, chemotaxis, and activationof leukocytes • – major regulators of leukocyte traffic. • Some are primarily involved in inflammatory processes, others are constitutively expressed and play important homeostatic or developmental roles. • Chemokine-mediated effects are not limited to the immune system. • The inflammatory chemokines are induced in response to infection and recruit phagocytes and lymphocytes to inflammatory sites. • Four classes: CXC, CC, C, CXXXC (or CX3C) • Ligands: e.g.,CXCL8,Receptors: e.g.,CXCR1

  7. Chemokines Signal through Receptors Coupled with Large G Proteins (polypeptide chains traverse the membrane 7 times)

  8. Effects of Chemokines • Cell movement • Changes in cell shape • Promotion of adhesiveness to endothelial wall • Generation of microbicidal ·O2- (superoxide anion) • in phagocytes • Release of proteases from neutrophils & macrophages • Release of histamine from basophils • Release of cytotoxic proteins from eosinophils

  9. Differences in the Expression of Chemokine Receptors by Leukocytes CCR1, 3 CCR1, 2, 4, CXCR4 CCR1, 2, 3 CXCR1, 2, 4 CCR2, 3, 4, CXCR3, 4 CXCR4 CXCR1 CXCR2 CXCR3 CXCR4 Table 13-2 Human chemokines & their receptors Most receptors bind more than 1 chemokine.

  10. Four Sequential But Overlapping Steps in Neutrophil Extravasation (by chemoattractant stimulus*) * * * * activated (inflamed) endothelium * ** *** * Chemoattractant stimuli: chemokines platelet-activating factor (PAF) C5a, C3a, C5b67 N-formyl peptides (from microbes)

  11. Transmigration of Neutrophils and Monocytes IL-8 (CXCL8), MIP-1b (CCL4) integrins mucin CD31, CD321 Neutrophils transmigrate first, later, followed by monocytes.

  12. Lymphocyte Recirculation Routes

  13. Lymphocyte Extravasation Occurs in High-endothelial Venules (HEVs) • - cuboidal (“high”) shape, • - present in lymph nodes, Peyer’s patches, or tonsils, • express CAMs of the selectin, the mucin-like, and • the Ig superfamilies.

  14. Extravasation of Naïve T lymphocytes The general process of lymphocyte extravasation is similar to neutrophil extravasation. Naïve T-cells circulate indiscriminately to secondary lymphoid tissue throughout the body.

  15. Selective Trafficking of Effector T cells CLA :cutaneous lymphocyte Ag The trafficking patterns of effector and memory lymphocytes differ from those of naïve lymphocytes. Different subsets of lymphocytes exhibit tissue-selective homing behavior. This process is calledtrafficking, orhoming.

  16. Mediators of Inflammation 1. Chemokines – key mediators of inflammation 2. Plasma Enzyme Mediators a. kinin system b. clotting system c. fibrinolytic system d. complement system 3. Lipid Inflammatory Mediators 4. Cytokine Inflammatory mediators – IL-1, IL-6, TNF-, IL-12, IFN-

  17. Tissue Damage Induces Plasma Enzyme Mediators plasma clotting factor clotting system kinin system fibrinolytic system complement system

  18. The Breakdown of Membrane Phospholipids Generates Mediators of Inflammation platelet activating factor (PGE2, F2, D2…) SRS-A: slow-reacting substances of anaphylaxis

  19. Inflammatory Response

  20. Acuteinflammatory responses: 1. Local responses – swelling, redness, heat, pain, and loss of function 2. Systemic responses – due to combined effects of IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-a induction of fever, increased synthesis of hormones, e.g., ACTH and hydrocortisone, increased production of WBC, and production of acute-phase proteins in the liver ChronicInflammation – accumulation and activation of macrophages, IFN-g, TNF-a

  21. Systemic Acute-phase Response (adrenocorticotropic hormone) (potent anti-inflammatory) The hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis)is a major part of the neuroendocrine system that controls reactions to stress and regulates various body processes including digestion, the immune system, mood and sexuality, and energy usage.

  22. Anti-inflammatory Effects of Corticosteroids • Decrease in the number of circulating lymphocytes • Alterations in lymphocyte circulation patterns • Induction of NF-kB inhibitor, IkB • Reduction in the phagocytic and the killing ability of macrophages and neutrophils • Reduction in chemotaxis • Decrease in the expression of class II MHC molecules and IL-1 production by macrophages • Reduction in TH-cell activation • Decrease in the released lysosomal enzymes at the site of inflammation

  23. IFN-g and TNF-a Play a Central Role in the Development of Chronic Inflammation ↑ cytokine production ↑ Ag presentation ↑ hydrolytic enzymes ↑ ROS, RNS → tissue damage Activated macrophages → TNF-a IFN-g & TNF-a act synergistically to induce ICAM-1, E-selectin, class I MHC molecules, and recruit large numbers of cells.
