We report the following novel features of CD31 which suggest a role for it in adhesion amplification of unique T cell subsets: (a) engagement of CD31 induces the adhesive function of/31 and/~2 integrins; (b) adhesion induction by CD31 immunoglobulin G (IgG) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is sensitive, requiring only bivalent mAb; (c) CD31 mAb induces adhesion rapidly, but it is transient; (d) unique subsets of CD4 + and CD8 + T cells express CD31, including all naive (CD45RA +) CD8 T cells; and (e) CD31 induction is selective, inducing adhesive function of fll integrins, particularly very late antigen-4, more efhciently than the f12 integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1. Conversely, CD3 is more effective in inducing ~2-mediated adhesion. Taken together, these findings indicate that unique T cell subsets express CD31, and CD31 has the capacity to induce integrin-mediated adhesion of T cells in a sensitive and selective fashion. We propose that, in collaboration with other receptors/ ligands, CD31 functions in an "adhesion cascade" by amplifying integrin-mediated adhesion of CD31 + T cells to other cells, particularly endothelial calls. gulated adhesion is critical to virtually all the functions grins and L-sdectin (LAM-1/Leu-8); regulated expression of l~ oft lymphocytes.

Abstract Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is one of the most common types of malignancy of the urinary system. The pathogenesis and effective diagnosis of ccRCC have become popular topics for research in the previous decade. In the current study, an integrated bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify core genes associated in ccRCC. An expression dataset (GSE105261) was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, and included 26 ccRCC and 9 normal kideny samples. Assessment of the microarray dataset led to the recognition of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), which was subsequently used for pathway and gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis.

Do not freeze. Formulation: Antibody stabilizer with 0.05% sodium azide Reactivity: Human Application: IMC-Paraffin Technical Information Application: The metal-tagged antibody is designed and formulated for the application of Imaging Mass Cytometry (IMC™) using the Fluidigm Hyperion™ Imaging System on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue sections. Quality control: Each lot of conjugated antibody is quality control- tested by Imaging Mass Cytometry on tissue sections. Recommended concentration: For optimal performance it is recommended that the antibody be titrated for the desired application. Suggested initial dilution range: IMC-Paraffin: 1:50 to 1:200 Description CD31, also known as platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) or endoCAM, is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein. It is expressed by endothelial cells on blood vessels, as well as by monocytes, granulocytes, platelets and a small subset of T cells. It plays a role in wound healing, angiogenesis and removal of aged neutrophils and in cellular migration in an inflammatory situation. Human spleen (FFPE) stained with 151Eu-anti-CD31 (EPR3094) at a dilution of 1:100 (green pseudocolor), 141Pr-anti-αSMA (1A4) (red pseudocolor), and iridium DNA intercalator (blue pseudocolor).

Objective. To determine serum levels of soluble CD31 (sCD31) and its clinical associations in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Methods. Serum sCD31 levels from 70 patients with SSc were examined by ELISA. For a longitu- dinal study, 64 sera from 17 SSc patients were analyzed (followup: 0.4–3.9 yrs). Results. Serum sCD31 levels were elevated in patients with SSc (n = 70) compared with healthy controls (n = 20) and patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (n = 15). Serum sCD31 levels were higher in patients with limited cutaneous SSc (lSSc; n = 37) than those with diffuse cutaneous SSc (n = 33). Patients with elevated sCD31 levels had pulmonary fibrosis and decreased percentage vital capacity (%VC) less frequently than those with normal sCD31 levels. sCD31 levels correlated posi- tively with %VC in patients with SSc. This association of elevated sCD31 levels with the lower frequency of pulmonary involvement and better %VC was still observed when analyzed among lSSc patients alone. The elevation of sCD31 was associated with shorter disease duration in patients with lSSc. In a longitudinal study, 75% of patients with SSc showed increased sCD31 levels only tran- siently in the early phase of the disease. Serum sCD31 levels remained normal during followup in all patients with normal sCD31 levels at the first visit. Conclusion. Elevated sCD31 levels were associated with lSSc with relatively early onset and lower frequency and severity of pulmonary fibrosis.

The elevation of sCD31 was associated with shorter disease duration in patients with lSSc. In a longitudinal study, 75% of patients with SSc showed increased sCD31 levels only tran- siently in the early phase of the disease. Serum sCD31 levels remained normal during followup in all patients with normal sCD31 levels at the first visit. Conclusion. Elevated sCD31 levels were associated with lSSc with relatively early onset and lower frequency and severity of pulmonary fibrosis.

  • Soluble Carcinoembryonic Antigen Activates Endothelial Cells and Tumor Angiogenesis
    Published OnlineFirst October 11, 2013; DOI: 10.1158/0008-5472.CAN-13-0123 Cancer Microenvironment and Immunology Research Soluble Carcinoembryonic Antigen Activates Endothelial Cells and Tumor Angiogenesis Kira H. Bramswig1, Marina Poettler1, Matthias Unseld1, Friedrich Wrba2, Pavel Uhrin3, Wolfgang Zimmermann4, Christoph C. Zielinski1, and Gerald W. Prager1 Abstract Carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA, CD66e, CEACAM-5) is a cell-surface–bound glycoprotein overexpressed and released by many solid tumors that has an autocrine function in cancer cell survival and differentiation. Soluble CEA released by tumors is present in the circulation of patients with cancer, where it is used as a marker for cancer progression, but whether this form of CEA exerts any effects in the tumor microenvironment is unknown. Here, we present evidence that soluble CEA is sufficient to induce proangiogenic endothelial cell behaviors, including adhesion, spreading, proliferation, and migration in vitro and tumor microvascularization in vivo. CEA-induced activation of endothelial cells was dependent on integrin b-3 signals that activate the focal- adhesion kinase and c-Src kinase and their downstream MAP–ERK kinase/extracellular signal regulated kinase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase/Akt effector pathways. Notably, while interference with VEGF signaling had no effect on CEA-induced endothelial cell activation, downregulation with the CEA receptor in endothelial cells attenuated CEA-induced signaling and tumor angiogenesis. Corroborating these results clinically, we found
