Plasticity of endothelial cells: rapid dedifferentiation of freshly isolated high endothelial venule endothelial cells outside the lymphoid tissue microenvironment.
Endothelial cells display remarkable heterogeneity in different organs and vascular beds. Although many studies suggest that tissues "speak" to endothelial cells, endothelial cell diversity remains poorly characterized at the molecular level. Here, we describe a novel strategy to characterize tissue-specific endothelial cell phenotypes and to identify endothelial cell genes that are under the c...

متن کاملPlasmacytoid dendritic cells employ multiple cell adhesion molecules sequentially to interact with high endothelial venule cells--molecular basis of their trafficking to lymph nodes.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are natural type I IFN-producing cells found in lymphoid tissues, where they support both innate and adaptive immune responses. They emigrate from the blood to lymph nodes, apparently through high endothelial venules (HEVs), but little is known about the mechanism. We have investigated the molecular mechanisms of pDC migration using freshly isolated DCs and H...
متن کاملBiosynthesis and Functional Significance of Peripheral Node Addressin in Cancer-Associated TLO
Peripheral node addressin (PNAd) marks high endothelial venules (HEV), which are crucial for the recruitment of lymphocytes into lymphoid organs in non-mucosal tissue sites. PNAd is a sulfated and fucosylated glycoprotein recognized by the prototypic monoclonal antibody, MECA-79. PNAd is the ligand for L-selectin, which is expressed on the surface of naive and central memory T cells, where it m...
متن کاملCloning from purified high endothelial venule cells of hevin, a close relative of the antiadhesive extracellular matrix protein SPARC.
High endothelial venules (HEV) in lymphoid tissues support high levels of lymphocyte extravasion from the blood. We purified high endothelial cells from human tonsils by immunomagnetic selection with MECA-79 MAb to construct an HEV cDNA library. Differential screening of this library using cDNA probes from HEV (plus) or flat-walled vessel (minus) endothelial cells allowed us to characterize a n...
