Parkos CD11b/CD18-mediated adhesive interactions play a key role in regulating polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN)) migration across intestinal epithelium. However, the identity of epithelial ligands for migrating PMN remains obscure. In this study we investigated the role of carbohydrates in mediating adhesive interactions between T84 intestinal epithelial cells and CD11b/CD18 purified from PMN. Fucoidin, heparin/heparin sulfate, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, mannose-6-phosphate, and laminarin were found to inhibit adhesion of T84 cells to CD11b/CD18. The most potent inhibitory effects were observed with fucoidin (50% inhibition -at 1–5 ؋ 10؊8 M). Binding assays demonstrated that fucoidin directly bound to CD11b/CD18 in a divalent cation- and sulfation Downloaded from dependent fashion that was blocked by anti-CD11b mAbs. Experiments employing CD11b/CD18 as a probe to blot T84 cell fucosylated proteins purified via fucose-specific lectin column revealed several candidate CD11b/CD18 binding proteins with molecular masses of 95, 50, 30, 25, and 20 kDa. Fucosidase treatment of T84 cells resulted in significantly reduced cell adhesion to CD11b/CD18, while no inhibition was observed after neuraminidase treatment. Finally, significant inhibition of T84 cell ad- hesion to CD11b/CD18 was observed after blocking cell proteoglycan synthesis with p-nitrophenyl--D-xylopyranoside. These findings implicate epithelial cell surface proteoglycans decorated with sulfated fucose moieties as ligands for CD11b/CD18 during http://www.jimmunol.org/ PMN migration across mucosal surfaces.

It is generally believed that ICAM-1 (6, 8) and soluble factors such as iC3b (9, 10), fibrinogen CD11b/CD18 mediates initial adhesion of PMN to epithelial (11), LPS (12, 13), elastase (14), oligodeoxynucleotide (15), zy- monolayers by interactions with a counter-receptor(s) on the epi- mosan (16), -glucan (17), heparin (heparin sulfate) (18, 19), de- thelial cell surface.
