Neutrophil Adhesion in Leukocyte Adhesion
We have previously reported a newly discovered congenital disorder of neutrophil adhesion, leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome type 2 (LAD II). The clinical manifestations of this syndrome are similar to those seen in the classic leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome, now designated type 1 (LAD I), but the two syndromes differ in the molecular basis of their adhesion defects. LAD I is cause...
متن کاملLeukocyte Adhesion Deficiency Type 1 Presenting as Leukemoid Reaction
The hallmarks of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) are defects in the leukocyte adhesion process, marked leukocytosis and recurrent infections. These molecular and clinical manifestations result from an impaired step in the inflammatory process, namely, the emigration of leukocytes from the blood vessels to sites of infection, which requires adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium. Over las...
متن کاملLeukocyte adhesion defect.
Leukocyte adhesion defect (LAD) is a rare, autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency disorder of phagocytes, in which there is defective aggregation at the site of infection due to the absence of surface integrins. Diagnosis is based primarily on flowcytometric analysis of neutrophils for the surface expression of CD11, CD18 and CD15s. We describe here a case of a 7-months-old boy who presen...
متن کاملLeukocyte adhesion and microvessel permeability.
To investigate the direct effect of leukocyte adherence to microvessel walls on microvessel permeability, we developed a method to measure changes in hydraulic conductivity (L(p)) before and after leukocyte adhesion in individually perfused venular microvessels in frog mesentery. In 19 microvessels that were initially free of leukocyte sticking or rolling along the vessel wall, control L(p) was...
متن کاملLeukocyte Adhesion: What's the Catch?
A recent study shows that the leukocyte adhesion molecules known as selectins form 'catch' bonds, the dissociation rate of which decreases with increasing applied force. The ability of selectins to switch between catch and slip bonds, where dissociation increases with force, can explain the shear threshold effect, in which leukocyte adhesion goes through a maximum with increasing shear rate.
