Spatial heterogeneity of TNF-α-induced T cell migration to colonic mucosa is mediated by MAdCAM-1 and VCAM-1

Abstract: Relatively little is known about how recirculation of lymphocytes through the inflamed intestinal mucosa is regulated. The aim of this study was to investigate the dynamic process of T lymphocyte-endothelial cell adhesion in TNF-alpha-challenged murine colonic mucosa by intravital microscopy. T lymphocytes from spleen (SPL) and intestinal lamina propria (LPL) were fluorescence labeled, and their adhesion to microvessels in the colonic mucosa was observed. In TNF-alpha (25 microg/kg)-stimulated colonic venules,… Show more

“…TNF-␣ produced from mast cells might be an important factor for the upregulation of adhesion molecules including MAdCAM-1 (16,35). To our knowledge, this is the first direct demonstration of lymphocyte migration to gut-associated lymphoid organs and intestinal mucosal microvessels in situ in a chronic food allergy model.…”

“…The microcirculation of colonic mucosa was also observed from the mucosal surface, and lymphocyte migration was observed through a fluorescence microscope as previously described (28). The lymphocytes staying Ͼ30 s in mucosal microvessels were defined as sticking lymphocytes.…”

“…There are indeed several reports indicating that antibodies against other adhesion molecules (ICAM-1 or VCAM-1) attenuate the increased leucocyte adhesion in intestinal venules [7,18,19]. In the case of ICAM-1, however, we have already reported that up-regulated ICAM-1 is not involved in T lymphocyte-endothelial adhesion in the inflamed colon [15]. Moreover, in the case of VCAM-1, most of the reports have given results obtained from a relatively acute course of inflammation, so we speculate that especially in the case of chronic colitis, MAdCAM-1, rather than VCAM-1 or ICAM-1, may play a key role in T and B lymphocyte migration.…”

“…[14]. The cells were resuspended in 0·2 ml of the medium and used within 30 min The microcirculation in the colonic mucosa was observed from the mucosal surface with an inverted-type fluorescence microscope (Diaphot TMD-2S, Nikon, Tokyo) equipped with a silicon intensifier target (SIT) image tube camera (C-2400-08, Hamamatsu Photonics Co., Shizuoka, Japan) as previously reported [15]. Lymphocytes (3 ¥ 10 7 dissolved in 0·3 ml) were injected into tail veins of the recipient mice for 5 min.…”
