Útdráttur

The expression of E-selectin reaches a maximum 4-6 h after stimulation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in vitro with tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and then declines to basal level within 24 h. If interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is added to the cell culture medium together with TNF-alpha the surface expression of E-selectin is augmented and prolonged in a synergistic way. The aim of the present study was to investigate if altered protein glycosylation could explain the IFN-gamma induced persistent surface expression of E-selectin. SDS-PAGE analysis of HUVEC glycoproteins, metabolically radiolabelled in the carbohydrate portion, indicated that addition of IFN-gamma produced an altered protein glycosylation. Lectin blot analysis using the Sambucus nigra agglutinin lectin also indicated differences in protein glycosylation when HUVEC were incubated with IFN-gamma/TNF-alpha compared to TNF-alpha alone. The kinetics of surface expression of E-selectin were measured using a cell ELISA assay. When HUVEC were incubated with monesin, a potent inhibitor of late Golgi function, together with both TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma, the additive effect of IFN-gamma on E-selectin expression was almost abolished. Since monensin is known to affect glycosylation processing, this experiment suggested that the IFN-gamma induced change in protein glycosylation might induce the prolonged surface expression of E-selectin. However, when HUVEC were cultured with IFN-gamma/TNF-alpha in the presence of several different inhibitors of N-glycosylation processing, no significant effect of E-selectin expression was observed. Regulation of adhesion molecule expression after activation of endothelial cells is likely to play a pivotal role for the inflammatory response. Further studies are needed to understand the mechanisms underlying this regulation.
