High level of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 affects prognosis of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma

AIM: To determine the cut-off value of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) and assess the correlation of ICAM-1 with clinicopathological features and the prognosis of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)patients who underwent surgical resection.METHODS: We prospectively collected clinicopathological data from 236 HCC patients who had undergone successful hepatectomy. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was performed to determine the optimal cut-off value of ICAM-1. Enzymelinked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the concentration of ICAM-1 in 236 serum samples isolated from HCC patients and the stratified analysis was used to compare the serum level of ICAM-1 in different HCC subgroups. Immunohistochemistry was performed to test the expression level of the ICAM-1 protein in76 cases of HCC tissues and their adjacent normal liver tissues(ANLT). The survival probability of HCC patients was estimated using Kaplan-Meier plots and differences between the groups were obtained using the log-rank test. Furthermore, independent indicatorsof the prognosis were acquired using a stepwise Cox proportional hazard model to analyze a series of predictors that were associated with disease-free survival(DFS) and overall survival(OS) in HCC patients.RESULTS: Our findings suggested that ICAM-1promotes HCC metastasis and high serum ICAM-1 is significantly associated with alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)(P = 0.022), clinical tumor-node-metastasis stage(P< 0.001), portal vein tumor thrombus(P = 0.005),distant metastasis(P = 0.016) and recurrence(P= 0.034). We further detected the ICAM-1 protein in HCC specimens and found that 56 of 76(73.7%)HCC tissues had ICAM-1 positive staining while only23 of 76(30.3%) ANLT were positively stained(P <0.0001). Survival analysis indicated that HCC patients with increased ICAM-1 concentrations had significantly shorter DFS and OS after resection. A multivariate analysis showed that ICAM-1 > 684 ng/mL was an independent factor for DFS(HR = 1.643; 95%CI:1.125-2.401; P = 0.010) and OS(HR = 1.692; 95%CI:1.152-2.486; P = 0.007).CONCLUSION: ICAM-1 may be a promising serological biomarker for HCC diagnosis and an independent predictor of DFS and OS after surgical resection and may provide a useful reference for the prediction of intra- and extrahepatic metastasis.

The Value of the Soluable Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 Levels in Matermal Serum for Determination of Occult Chorioamnionitis in Premature Rupture of Membranes

To compare the diagnostic value of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (sICAM-1) with that of c-reactive protein (CRP) for detecting chorioamnionitis (CAM) in serum of women with premature rupture of membranes (PROM), 55 pregnant women with PROM, including 18 pregnant women with preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM) and 20 normal pregnant women at term (TPROM) were studied. Maternal serum were measured by Sandwish enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) for sICAM. CAM was histologically confirmed after delivery. The results revealed that (1) maternal serum levels of sICAM-1 and CRP were significantly higher in women with PROM than those without it; (2) maternal serum levels of sICAM-1 and CRP were significantly higher in women with CAM than those without it; (3) serum levels of sICAM-1 in PPROM women were similar to those in TPROM women, whereas serum levels of CRP in PPROM women were significantly higher than those in TPROM women; (4) the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, Kappa index and area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of maternal serum sICAM-1 (cutoff 104.7 ng/ml) and CRP(cutoff 1.03 mg/dl) for diagnosing CAM were 100 %, 91.2 %, 87.5 %, 100 %, 0.20, 0.995 and 81.0 %, 73.5 %, 65.4 %, 86.2 %, 0.13, 0.811, respectively; (5) among the mild histological CAM group, severe histological CAM group and clinical CAM group, the difference in maternal serum levels of sICAM-1 were significantly (P<0.001), with the order of concentration from high level to low level corresponding to the severity of CAM. It is concluded that maternal serum level of ICAM-1 is superior to that of CRP as biomarker for diagnosing intraamniotic infection in pregnant women with PROM.

Nerve bundle formation during the promotion of peripheral nerve regeneration:collagenⅥ-neural cell adhesion molecule 1 interaction

The formation of nerve bundles,which is partially regulated by neural cell adhesion molecule 1(NCAM1),is important for neural network organization during peripheral nerve regeneration.However,little is known about how the extracellular matrix(ECM)microenvironment affects this process.Here,we seeded dorsal root ganglion tissue blocks on different ECM substrates of peripheral nerve ECM-derived matrixgel,Matrigel,laminin 521,collagen I,and collagen IV,and observed well-aligned axon bundles growing in the peripheral nerve ECM-derived environment.We confirmed that NCAM1 is necessary but not sufficient to trigger this phenomenon.A protein interaction assay identified collagen VI as an extracellular partner of NCAM1 in the regulation of axonal fasciculation.Collagen VI interacted with NCAM1 by directly binding to the FNIII domain,thereby increasing the stability of NCAM1 at the axolemma.Our in vivo experiments on a rat sciatic nerve defect model also demonstrated orderly nerve bundle regeneration with improved projection accuracy and functional recovery after treatment with 10 mg/m L Matrigel and 20μg/m L collagen VI.These findings suggest that the collagen VI-NCAM1 pathway plays a regulatory role in nerve bundle formation.This study was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Guangzhou Medical University(approval No.GY2019048)on April 30,2019.

Different expression pattern of serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecules-1 and neutrophilic expression of CD18 in patients with diabetic retinopathy

AIM: To investigate the levels of serum soluble intercellular adhesion molecules-1 (sICAM-1) and neutrophilic expression of CD18 in patients with various stages of diabetic retinopathy and to determine their different expression pattern in the development of diabetic retinopathy(DR). METHODS: Levels of serum sICAM-1 and CD18 on the surface of neutrophile were measured in 41 DR patients, they were classified in three subgroups according to the stage of retinopathy as determined by fund's ophthalmoscopy; 10 control subjects were also studied. sICAM-1 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and CD18 by flow cytometry. RESULTS: The neutrophilic CD18 expression and serum sICAM-1 level were all significantly elevated in all diabetic subgroups compared to control subjects (P <0.01). The differences of CD18 and sICAM-1 among the diabetic subgroups were significant in CD18 but not in sICAM-1. The progression of retinopathy was associated with an increase both in CD18 and in sICAM-1 levels by simple correlation analysis (beta =0.74, P<0.001; beta =0.38, P<0.01, respectively). But stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that only CD18 Was independent determinant of retinopathy (beta =1.04, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Our results confirm the contribution of endothelial and neutrophilic activation in the development of DR as indicated by increased levels of CD18 and sICAM-1. However, a direct implication of CD18 and ICAM-1 in the progression of DR can be supported only in the CD18 but not ICAM-1. CD18 and ICAM-1 may play different role in the development of diabetic retinopathy.

The role of adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in herpes simplex keratitis

Purpose:To elucidate the role of adhesion molecules in the pathogenesis of herpes simplex keratitis. Methods:Fifty female Balb/c mice (4-6 weeks old, 14-22 g weight) were divided into two groups randomly. Forty were infected by herpes simplex virus and the other 10 were used as normal controls.All mice were fed under the same conditions.Corneas of these mice were collected for immunohistochemical testing on day 14 and 21 after infection. Results:ICAM-1 was mainly expressed in the basal cells of the corneal epithelia and vascular endothelia of the infected mice. A substantial amount of VCAM-1 was also expressed in the corneal vascular endothelial cells of infected mice,and was also found in inflammatory cells in the epithelial and stromal layers of the corneas. Conclusion:Adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were involved in the progression of herpex simplex keratitis.They may accelerate the progress of inflammation by mediating the extravsation of inflammatory cells from vessels into the infected sites.

Expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 between pancreatic microcirculation and peripheral circulation in rats with acute edematous pancreatitis

OBJECTIVE: To study the ehanges of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) expression on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) in peripheral circulation anti pancreatic microcirculation in rats with acute edematous pancreatitis (AEP). METHODS: The model of AEP was established with 50 Wistar rats, and the changes of PECAM-1 expression on PMNs from the splenic vein and inferior vena cava were determined by flow cytometry. RESULTS: PECAM-I expression on PMNs showed no significant difference between pancreatic microcirculation and peripheral circulation at AEP2h and AEP4h time points. From the AEP4h to the AEP8h time point, PECAM-1 expression in peripheral circulation was up-regulated, but PECAM-1 expression in pancreatic microcirculation was down-regulated. PECAM-1 expression had a significant difference between pancreatic microcirculation and peripheral circulation at the AEP8h time point (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: PECAM-1 expression on PMNs is in a converse way between pancreatic microcirculation and peripheral circulation in AEP.

Effects of TCMP-1 on the changes of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 expression in acute edematous pancreatitis

BACKGROUND: Traditional Chinese medicine is a potent agent in the management of clinical and experimental acute pancreatitis (AP), but the molecular mechanism of its the- rapeutic action is unclear. Numerous experimental and clinical studies have shown that platelet endothelial cell ad- hesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) is pivotal to leukocyte re- cruitment, which results in microcirculatory injury during inflammation, but its role in acute pancreatitis is poorly un- derstood. We investigated the effects of a compound of tra- ditional Chinese medicine pancreatitis-1 (TCMP-1) on the changes of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) expression on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) in acute edematous pancreatitis (AEP). METHODS: The model of acute pancreatitis was estab- lished by subcutaneous injection of caerulein, and TCMP-1 treated groups were given TCMP-1 by catheterization from mouth to stomach (20 ml/kg) immediately after first time subcutaneous injection of caerulein. The changes of expres- sion of PECAM-1 on leukocytes from the blood of the splenic vein and inferior vena cava were determined by flow cytometry. RESULTS: In the AEP group, expression of PECAM-1 on PMNs was not significantly different between pancreatic microcirculation and systemic circulation at AEP2h and AEP4h time point. Then from AEP4h time point to AEP8h time point, expression of PECAM-1 was up-regulated in systemic circulation while it was down-regulated in pancre- atic microcirculation and was significantly different be- tween pancreatic microcirculation and systemic circulation at AEP8h time point (P<0.05). In the TCMP-1 treated group, compared with the AEP group, expression of PE-CAM-1 on PMNs decreased in different levels between pan- creatic microcirculation and systemic circulation and was of significant difference at AEP8h time point (P <0.05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of PECAM-1 expression on PMNs may prevent PMNs from transmigration through the endo- thelium and may be one of the treatment mechanisms of TCMP-1 decoction on AEP.

The relationship between platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 and paraquat-induced lung injury in rabbits

BACKGROUND:Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1(PECAM-1),also known as CD31,is mainly distributed in vascular endothelial cells.Studies have shown that PECAM-1 is a very significant indicator of angiogenesis,and has been used as an indicator for vascular endothelial cells.The present study aimed to explore the relationship between the expression of PECAM-1 and the degree of acute lung injury(ALI) and fibrosis in paraquat(PQ) induced lung injury in rabbits.METHODS:Thirty-six adult New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups(12rabbits in each group) according to PQ dosage:8 mg/kg(group A),16 mg/kg(group B),and 32 mg/kg(group C).After PQ infusion,the rabbits were monitored for 7 days and then euthanized.The lungs were removed for histological evaluation.Masson staining was used to determine the degree of lung fibrosis(LF),and semi-quantitative immune-histochemistry analysis to determine the expression of PECAM-1.Pearson's product-moment correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between the expression of PECAM-1 and the extent of lung injuries expressed by ALI score and degree of LF.RESULTS:Rabbits in the three groups showed apparent poisoning.The rabbits survived longer in group A than in groups B and C(6.47±0.99 days vs.6.09±1.04 days vs.4.77±2.04 days)(P<0.05).ALI score was lower in group A than in groups B and C(8.33±1.03 vs.9.83±1.17 vs.11.50±1.38)(P<0.05),and there was statistically significant difference between group B and group C(P=0.03).LF was slighter in group A than in groups B and C(31.09%±2.05%vs.34.37%±1.62%vs.36.54%±0.44%)(P<0.05),and there was statistically significant difference between group B and group C(P=0.026).The PEACAM-1 expression was higher in group A than in groups B and C(20.31%±0.70%vs.19.34%±0.68%vs.18.37%±0.46%)(P<0.05),and there was statistically significant difference between group B and group C(P=0.017).Pearson's correlation analysis showed that the expression of PECAM-1 was negatively correlated to both ALI score(Coe=-0.732,P=0.001)and degree of LF(Coe=-0.779,P<0.001).CONCLUSIONS:The PECAM-1 expression significantly decreases in New Zealand rabbits after PQ poisoning,and the decrease is dose-dependent.The PECAM-1 expression is negatively correlated with ALI score and LF,showing a significant role in the development of lung injuries induced by PQ.

Mild hypothermia effects on intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and serum interleukin-6 expression in brain tissues of a rat focal ischemia model

BACKGROUND： Previous studies have confirmed the neuroprotective effect of mild hypothermia on ischemic brain injury. OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects of mild hypothermia on intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression and serum interleukin-6 levels in ischemic brain tissues of focal brain ischemia rats, and to explore the neuroprotective effects of mild hypothermia on ischemic brain injury. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： A randomized, controlled, neurobiological experiment was performed at the Central Laboratory, First Affiliated Hospital, Xinxiang Medical College, China from February to July 2006. MATERIALS： Thirty healthy, adult, Sprague Dawley rats were used to establish middle cerebral artery occlusion models using the suture method, The immunohistochemistry （streptavidin-biotin-peroxidase complex method） kit was purchased from Boster, China. Interleukin-6 radioimmunoassay was supplied by Institute of Radioimmunity, Technology Development Center, General Hospital of Chinese PLA. METHODS： The rats were equally and randomly assigned into mild hypothermia and control groups, and middle cerebral artery occlusion models were established. The rectal temperature was maintained at （37 ±0.5）℃ in the control group. In the mild hypothermia group, the rectal temperature was maintained at （33±1）℃. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： At 12 hours after model establishment, the ischemic brain hemispheres were coronally sliced at the level of the optic chiasm. The number of intercellular adhesion molecule-1-positive vessels per high-power field was observed with an optical microscope. Serum interleukin-6 levels were measured by radioimmunoassay. RESULTS： Compared with the control group, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and serum interleukin-6 expressions were significantly decreased in ischemic brain tissues of the mild hypothermia group （P 〈 0.01）. CONCLUSION： Mild hypothermia exhibits a neuroprotective effect by reducing serum interleukin-6 and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 expression following cerebral ischemia.

Association of G+1688A Polymorphism of Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 Gene with Myocardial Infarction in the Chinese Han Population

In order to investigate the association of G＋1688A （Ser563Asn） polymorphism of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 （PECAM-1） gene with myocardial infarction （MI） in the Chinese Han population, the G＋1688A polymorphism in PECAM-1 gene was detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment-length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） method among 502 subjects, including 218 patients with MI and 284 controls. The results showed that there was significant difference in AA frequencies of genotype G＋1688A polymorphism between case and control groups （39% vs 24%, P〈0.001）. A similar trend was observed on the allele frequencies （A/G： 62% vs 49%, P〈0.001）. Among the subjects with high serum total cholesterol level or high systolic blood pressure level, the variant AA genotype was associated with high risk of MI （adjusted OR, 2.13; 95% CI, 1.08 -4.41 and adjusted OR, 2.53; 95%CI, 1.63-3.63）. The single nucleotide polymorphism （SNP） at position ＋1688 in the exon 8 of PECAM-1 gene was associated with MI and the allele A might be a risk factor for MI in the Chinese Han population.

Re-expression of Cell Adhesion Molecule Inhibits Growth and Induces Apoptosis of Human Pancreatic Cancer Cell Line PANC-1

This study examined the expression of cell adhesion molecule 1 （CADM1） in pancreatic cancer and the possible mechanism. The expression of CADM 1 was detected by immunohistochemistry in tissues of pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, and normal pancreas. The plasmid pcDNA3.1-Hy- gro（＋）/CADM1 was transfected into PANC-1 cells （a pancreatic cancer cell line）. The expression of CADM1 in the transfected cells was determined by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Cell growth was measured by the MTT method and cell apoptosis by flow cytometry. The results showed that CADM1 was weakly expressed in tissues of pancreatic cancer in contrast to its high expression in normal pancreatic and pancreatitis tissues. The expression level of CADM in pancreatic caner was intensely correlated with the differentiation degree, lymph node metastasis and TNM stages. The growth of CADMl-transfected PANC-1 cells was significantly suppressed in vitro by a G1 cell cycle arrest and apoptosis occurrence. It was concluded that re-expression of CADM1 inhibits the growth of pancreatic cancer cells and induces their apoptosis in vitro. As a tumor suppressor gene, CADM1 plays an important role in the occurrence, progression and metastasis of pancreatic cancer.

Hypoxia Inhibits Proliferation of Human Dermal Lymphatic Endothelial Cells via Downregulation of Carcinoembryonic Antigen-related Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 Expression

Objective:Lymphatic endothelial cell(LEC)proliferation is essential for lymphangiogenesis.Hypoxia induces lymphangiogenesis,but it directly inhibits LEC proliferation and the underlying mechanisms have not been fully understood.The aim of this study was to investigate the role of carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1(CEACAM1)in hypoxia-repressed LEC proliferation.Methods:Human dermal lymphatic endothelial cells(HDLECs)were cultured under normoxic or hypoxic conditions,and cell proliferation was determined using MTT or CCK-8 assays.CEACAM1 expression was silenced by siRNA transfection.Activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPKs)was examined by Western blotting and blocked by specific inhibitors.Results:Under hypoxia,HDLECs proliferation was suppressed and CEACAM1 expression was downregulated.Silence of CEACAM1 in normoxia inhibited HDLECs proliferation and did not further decrease proliferation in HDLECs in response to hypoxia,suggesting that CEACAM1 may mediate hypoxia-induced inhibition of HDLECs proliferation.In addition,silence of CEACAM1 increased phosphorylation of MAPK molecules:extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK),p38 MAPK and Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK)in HDLECs.However,only inhibition of the JNK pathway rescued the reduction of HDLEC proliferation induced by CEACAM1 silence.Conclusion:Our results suggested that hypoxia downregulates CEACAM1 expression by activation of the JNK pathway,leading to inhibition of HDLEC proliferation.These findings may help to understand the mechanisms of LEC-specific response to hypoxia and develop novel therapies for pathological lymphangiogenesis.

Changes of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 in the serum from patients with acute cerebral infarction

objective: To observe the changes of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1(sICAM-1) in the serum of patients with acute cerebral infarctlon (ACI) and their clinical significance. Methods: The concen-tration of sICAM-1 in the serum of 91 patients with ACI was determined with ELISA and then the results were compared wlth those of 43 patients with cerebral hemorrhage and 30 healthy individuals. Results: In the 24th hour after infarction. the concentration of sICAMu-1 in the serum was significantly higher in patients with ACI than in patients with cerebral hemorrhage and normal controls (P< 0. 01). In the patients with ACI, the concentration exhibited an decreasing tendency in the period from the 24th hour to the 14th day andwas correlated with the focal size of cerebral infarction. During the first 14 days after infarction, the concen-tration was significantly higher in the patients with the complication of infection than in those without. Con-clusion: sICAM-1 is closely correlated with clinical manifestation of ACI.

Expression of Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 in Immune Response of Inner Ear

To understand the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in immune response of the inner ear, inner ear immune response was induced in rats by inoculation of keyhole limpet hemocyanine (KLH) into the scala tympani of the animals who had been systemically sensitized. The expression of ICAM-1 in the inner ear was immunohistochemically examined. ICAM-1 was found in the epithelium of the spiral modiolar vein (SMV) with its collecting venules (CVs) as early as 6 h after challenge. Expression of ICAM-1 was observed on the epithelium of the endolymphatic sac (ES) and perisaccular region at 12 h. The intensity of ICAM-1 staining reached its peak within 24 - 48 h in these sites of the inner ear. By day 28, most specimens were devoid of appreciable staining for ICAM-1. Our study demonstrates that adhesion molecules play an important role in extravasation of inflammatory cells from the systemic circulation in the process of inner ear immune response. It also shows that cytokines that control expression of adhesion molecules may be released by cells outside ES, besides those cells in the ES.

目的探讨慢性阻塞性肺疾病(COPD)患者血清白细胞介素-8(IL-8)、内皮特异性分子-1(ESM-1)、血管黏附蛋白-1(VAP-1)表达水平,分析其与病情程度相关性及其对COPD的诊断价值。方法选取2021年11月至2022年8月郑州大学第一附属医院收治的153例COPD患者为研究对象,其中COPD稳定期42例(设为SCOPD组)、COPD急性加重期111例(设为AECOPD组),同时选取同期于医院体检的健康志愿者51例为对照组。比较两组临床资料及血清IL-8、ESM-1、VAP-1水平。对比不同病情程度患者血清IL-8、ESM-1、VAP-1水平。分析血清各指标与肺功能、生化指标、病情程度相关性。评价血清各指标对SCOPD、AECOPD的诊断价值。结果AECOPD组、SCOPD组血清IL-8、ESM-1、VAP-1水平高于对照组,且AECOPD组高于SCOPD组(P<0.05);IL-8、ESM-1、VAP-1与生化指标、COPD评估测试表(CAT)、病情程度呈正相关,与肺功能呈负相关(P<0.05);血清各指标联合诊断SCOPD与AECOPD的曲线下面积(AUC)大于单独指标诊断(P<0.05)。结论血清IL-8、ESM-1、VAP-1与COPD病情严重程度相关,联合检测其水平对COPD具有一定诊断价值,可能作为疾病诊断、病情评估的重要指标。
