    Abstract Monocyte differentiation to macrophages is triggered by migration across the endothelial barrier, which is constituted by both endothelial cells and their underlying basement membrane. We address here the role of the endothelial basement membrane laminins (laminins 411 and 511) in this monocyte to macrophage switch. Chimeric mice carrying CX3CR1-GFP bone marrow were employed to track CCL2-induced monocyte extravasation in a cremaster muscle model using intravital microscopy, revealing faster extravasation in mice lacking endothelial laminin 511 (

    Abstract The extracellular matrix is an integral component of the vasculature, contributing to both developmental processes and structural and functional homeostasis. We describe here the types of extracellular matrices that occur in different blood vessel types, ranging from capillaries to veins, venules and arteries, and focus on the endothelial basement membranes and the laminin family of proteins. We summarize data on the molecular composition of endothelial basement membranes, the structure and in vivo expression patterns of the main endothelial laminin isoforms (laminins 411 and 511) and their, to date, deciphered functions in the vasculature. A significant portion of the review focuses on postcapillary venules and leukocyte extravasation and how the endothelial laminins affect adhesion and migration of different leukocyte types, but also how laminins affect endothelial barrier function by modulating expression and localization of endothelial cell-cell junction molecules, and how these effects differ in CNS versus non-CNS tissues. Comparisons are made to small artery dilation in response to shear flow, which has been shown to be dependent on endothelial laminins and junctional complexes. The data discussed support a central role for basement membrane laminins in different aspects of micro- and macro-vessel endothelial function, but also reveal that many open questions remain, including the contribution of perivascular cells which are either embedded or in direct contact with the endothelial cell basement membrane laminins.

    Abstract The neuropilin-1 (NRP1)-MET signaling axis regulates the motility of individual endothelial cells (ECs). It is unknown how this signaling pathway affects the endothelial barrier in coherent ECs forming a tight monolayer. We hypothesized that it is involved both in modulation of the endothelial barrier and in EC activation. To investigate the role of NRP1-MET signaling in inflammatory processes (e.g., systemic inflammatory response syndrome [SIRS] or snakebite-induced SIRS-like conditions), we employed the C-type lectin-related protein rhodocetin-αβ (RCαβ) as a specific trigger of this signal axis in ECs in vitro. In coherent HUVECs, RCαβ reinforced the actin cytoskeleton and increased cell stiffness, thus favoring vascular endothelial cadherin-mediated transmission of intercellular forces. Increased cell stiffness was associated with enhanced activation of RhoA and nuclear translocation of NF-κB. Simultaneously, RCαβ-triggered signaling via the NRP1-MET axis increased EC monolayer permeability, induced transcription of proinflammatory genes such as ICAM-1 and, consequently, leukocyte tethering. The RCαβ-induced transcriptome differed from that induced by hepatocyte growth factor, although in both cases the same tyrosine kinase, MET, was involved. This was due to RCαβ-mediated recruitment of the MET coreceptor NRP1 and additional Rho-mediated activation of the actomyosin system. RCαβ induced similar transcriptional and cellular changes if external shear forces were applied. These data highlight the modulatory role of NRP1 as MET coreceptor, and they explain how some snake venoms induce SIRS-like conditions. Additionally, this study demonstrates that inflammatory activation of coherent ECs is triggered by converging signals that are induced by NRP1-MET signaling and influenced by intercellular forces.

    Abstract Selectins are a family of adhesion receptors designed for efficient leukocyte tethering to the endothelium under shear. As a key property to resist premature bond disruption, selectin adhesiveness is enhanced by tensile forces that promote the conversion of a bent into an extended conformation of the N-terminal lectin and epidermal growth factor-like domains. Conformation-specific Abs have been invaluable in deciphering the activation mechanism of integrins, but similar reagents are not available for selectins. In this study, we show that the anti-human L-selectin mAbs DREG-55 and LAM1-5 but not DREG-56, DREG-200, or LAM1-1 heterotropically modulate adhesion presumably by stabilizing the extended receptor conformation. Force-free affinity assays, flow chamber, and microkinetic studies reveal a ligand-specific modulation of L-selectin affinity by DREG-55 mAb, resulting in a dramatic decrease of rolling velocity under flow. Furthermore, secondary tethering of polymorphonuclear cells was blocked by DREG-200 but significantly boosted by DREG-55 mAb. The results emphasize the need for a new classification for selectin Abs and introduce the new concept of heterotropic modulation of receptor function.

    Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) comes in different structural forms and biochemical compositions, which determine both its biophysical properties and its ability to convey specific signals to immune cells encountering or navigating through it. Traditionally, the role of the individual ECM molecules on cell migration has been investigated independent of considerations such as the tension/mechanical strength constituted by the ECM. However, more recently, this aspect has attracted considerable attention and data suggest that rigidity and molecular signals derived from the ECM define the mode of cell migration. We here review the different types of ECM encountered by migrating immune cells in vivo, as well as current information on how both molecular components of the ECM and their supramolecular structure can impact on modes of immune cell migration.

    Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) exists in various biochemical and structural forms that can act either as a barrier to migrating leukocytes, in the case of basement membranes, or provide a physical scaffold supporting or guiding migration (interstitial matrix). This review focuses on basement membranes and our current knowledge of the way that leukocytes transmigrate this protein barrier, with emphasis on T lymphocytes. Recent data suggest that the classical concept of cell-matrix adhesion requires revision with respect to leukocyte-ECM interactions. Whereas specific receptors may be required for leukocyte recognition of ECM molecules or three-dimensional structural domains, the role of adhesion in migration as perceived from the traditional studies of adherent cell-ECM interactions is less clear. Further, the indirect effects of ECM such as the binding and presentation of cytokines or chemotactic factors may more profoundly influence the directed migration of normally non-adherent leukocytes than the migration of adherent cells such as epithelial cells or fibroblasts. Proteases (in particular matrix metalloproteinases) released at sites of inflammation can selectively process ECM, cell surface molecules or soluble factors, which may result in the release of bioactive fragments that can function as chemoattractants for different leukocyte subsets or may modulate the activity/function of resident mesenchymal and immune cells. Current findings suggest that different leukocyte types employ different mechanisms to migrate across or through the ECM; this might be determined by the composition and organization of the ECM itself.
