Monoclonal antibody to murine PECAM-1 (CD31) blocks acute inflammation in vivo
A murine model of peritonitis was used to test the role of platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1/CD31) in acute inflammation. A monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific for murine PECAM-1 injected intravenously 4 h before the intraperitoneal injection of thioglycollate broth blocked leukocyte emigration into the peritoneal cavity for up to 48 h. This block was particularly evident fo...
متن کاملPECAM-1 (CD31) function
Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting ones, is a complex process consisting of interrelationships of angiogenic, survival and differentiation factors and their receptors with cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion molecules (Beck and D’Amore, 1997; Folkman and D’Amore, 1996; Hanahan, 1997; Hanahan and Folkman, 1996; Risau, 1997; Sage, 1997; Stromblad and Cheresh, 199...
متن کاملRole of PECAM-1 (CD31) in neutrophil transmigration in murine models of liver and peritoneal inflammation.
Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) is thought to be critical for transendothelial migration of leukocytes, including neutrophils. Because neutrophil-mediated liver injury during endotoxemia is dependent on transmigration, we investigated the role of PECAM-1 in the pathophysiology of endotoxin-induced liver injury. Male C3Heb/FeJ mice were treated with galactosamine (Gal) an...
متن کاملGenetic evidence for functional redundancy of Platelet/Endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1): CD31-deficient mice reveal PECAM-1-dependent and PECAM-1-independent functions.
Platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1; CD31), a member of the Ig superfamily, is expressed strongly at endothelial cell-cell junctions, on platelets, and on most leukocytes. CD31 has been postulated to play a role in vasculogenesis and angiogenesis, and has been implicated as a key mediator of the transendothelial migration of leukocytes. To further define the physiologic role ...
متن کاملEffect of thrombolytic therapy on platelet expression and plasma concentration of PECAM-1 (CD31) in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Animal studies have shown that the administration of antibodies against platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) before reperfusion can reduce infarct size. The purpose of the present study was to define the effects of thrombolytic therapy in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients on the platelet expression and plasma concentrations of PECAM-1 at prespecified time points afte...
