Short isocapnic hyperoxia affects indices of vascular remodeling and intercellular adhesion molecules in healthy men

In preparation for tracheal intubation during induction of anesthesia, the patient may be ventilated with 100% oxygen. To investigate the impact of acute isocapnic hyperoxia on endothelial activation and vascular remodeling, ten healthy young men (24±3 years) were exposed to 5-min normoxia (21% O2) and 10-min hyperoxia trials (100% O2). During hyperoxia, intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAM-1) (hyperoxia: 4.16±0.85 vs normoxia: 3.51±0.84 ng/mL, P=0.04) and tissue inhibitor matrix metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) (hyperoxia: 8.40±3.84 vs normoxia: 5.73±2.15 pg/mL, P=0.04) increased, whereas matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-9) activity (hyperoxia: 0.53±0.11 vs normoxia: 0.68±0.18 A.U., P=0.03) decreased compared to the normoxia trial. We concluded that even short exposure to 100% oxygen may affect endothelial activation and vascular remodeling.

Ganoderma lucidum polysaccharides promote T lymphocyte infiltration into tumor by regulating expression of ICAM-1 in endothelial cells / 中国中药杂志

Polysaccharide is among the main active components of Ganoderma lucidum for tumor prevention and treatment. Howe-ver, it remains unclear whether it has synergy with tumor immunotherapy. This study evaluated the effect of G. lucidum polysaccharides(GLP) on the infiltration of T lymphocytes into tumor and the underlying mechanism, in order to provide a reference for its application in tumor immunotherapy. GLP were prepared by water extraction and alcohol precipitation combined with Sevag method and then given(intraperitoneal injection) to the mice bearing B16-F10 cells at 25, 50 and 100 mg kg~(-1), respectively, to evaluate the effect on tumor growth. The infiltration of CD3~+ and CD8~+ T cells and the expression of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) in tumor were detected by immunohistochemistry. EA.hy926 cells were treated with 50, 100 and 200 μg·mL~(-1) GLP, and the expression of ICAM-1 was determined by Western blot. The adhesion of EA.hy926 cells treated with GLP was measured with fluorescence-labeled Jurkat cells. To analyze the mechanism based on NF-κB pathway, this study determined the protein levels of nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB) p65, alpha inhibitor of NF-κB(IκBα), p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκBα by Western blot. The results showed that GLP can significantly inhibit the tumor growth in mice bearing B16-F10 cells, promote the infiltration of CD3~+ and CD8~+ T cells in tumor, and increase the expression of ICAM-1 in tumor. Meanwhile, GLP could also enhance the expression of ICAM-1 in EA.hy926 cells, thus strengthen the adhesion to Jurkat cells, induce phosphorylation and protein degradation of IκBα, and raise the expression and phosphorylation level of NF-κB p65. These results suggested that GLP could promote the expression of ICAM-1 through NF-κB pathway and further enhance the infiltration of T lymphocytes into tumor, thereby inhibiting tumor growth. This study lays a foundation for the further application of GLP in tumor immunotherapy.

Effects of combination of dihydroartemisinin and Huobahua on expression of p-p38 MAPK and ICAM-1 in mice with delayed-type hypersensitivity / 中国中药杂志

The aim of this paper was to investigate the immunosuppressive effects of dihydroartemisinin and Huobahua compatibility in mice with delayed hypersensitivity and explore its possible mechanism. The delayed-type hypersensitivity(DTH) model in mice was established to observe the immunosuppressive effects of dihydroartemisinin and Huobahua compatibility in DTH mice. ELISA assay was used to detect the contents of interferon(IFN-γ); histopathological changes and degree of mononuclear infiltration of right ear tissues were examined by HE staining; the expression level of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) in the right ear of mice was detected by immunohistochemistry; the protein expression levels of p38 phospho mitogen activated protein kinase(p-p38 MAPK) was detected by Western blot analysis. As compared with the control group, the degree of ear swelling, thymus/spleen index, serum IFN-γ as well as the number and degree of infiltration of monocytes were significantly increased in the model group. As compared with the model group, the degree of ear swelling and thymus/spleen index of the mice in the combination group were significantly reduced; the number and degree of infiltration of monocytes were significantly relieved; the serum levels of IFN-γ and the expression levels of p-p38 MAPK and ICAM-1 proteins in the right ear were also significantly reduced. The combination of dihydroartemisinin and Huobahua can significantly inhibit the DTH response, and it may regulate the production and secretion of related inflammatory factor IFN-γ by inhibiting the phosphorylation activity of p38 MAPK, thereby further reducing the expression of ICAM-1 and thus exerting the immunosuppressive effect.

@# Objective: To investigate the value of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) for the diagnosis and prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods: Eighty patients with pancreatic cancer (pancreatic cancer group), forty patients with benign pancreatic disease (benign disease group) who were admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in Cancer Hospital of Hubei Province fromApril 2015 to December 2017 were included in the study; and thirty healthy subjects during the same period were included as control. Serum ICAM-1 and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) levels were determined in all the three groups. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to analyze the diagnostic characteristics of ICAM-1 for pancreatic cancer. The COX regression model was used to analyze whether serum ICAM-1 was independently associated with the prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer. Results: The levels of ICAM-1 and CA19-9 in pancreatic cancer group were significantly higher than those in benign disease group and control group (P<0.01). The level of CA19-9 in benign disease group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of serum ICAM-1, CA19-9 and the combinations of both was 0.732 (95% CI: 0.658-0.807, P=0.000), 0.691 (95% CI: 0.620-0.762, P=0.000), and 0.747 (95% CI: 0.674-0.821, P=0.000), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between ICAM-1 and CA19-9 (r=0.472, P=0.000). The survival time of patients with serum ICAM-1< 2 308 U/ml was significantly longer than that of patients with ICAM-1≥2 308 U/ml (χ2=28.357,P=0.000); COX regression analysis showed that ICAM-1≥2 308 U/ml was an independent influence factor for prognosis, with an OR of 3.08 (2.14-7.23). Conclusion: Serum ICAM-1 contributes to the early diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of pancreatic cancer.

Correlations between Ape1/Ref-1, ICAM-1 and IL-17A Levels in Serum and Radiation Pneumonitis for Local Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients / 中国肺癌杂志

BACKGROUND@#The main manifestations of radiation pneumonitis are injury of alveolar epithelial and endothelial cells, abnormal expression of cytokines, abnormal proliferation of fibroblasts and synthesis of fibrous matrix. The occurrence of radiation pneumonitis is associated with multiplecytokine level abnormality. These cytokines can also be used as bio-markers to predict the occurrence of radiation pneumonitis. This study was to evaluate the correlation between the change of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1/redox factor-1 (Ape1/Ref-1), intercellular adhesion molecules 1 (ICAM-1) and interleukin-17A (IL-17A) before and after radiotherapy and radiation pneumonitis for local advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with concurrent chemoradiotherapy.@*METHODS@#NSCLC patients (68 cases) were treated with concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy, every patient's normal tissue were controlled with a same radation dose. 68 local advanced NSCLC patients with concurrent chemoradiotherapy were detected the levels of Ape1/Ref-1, ICAM-1 and IL-17A in serum by ELISA before radiotherapy and in the 14th week after radiotherapy. Acute and advanced radiation pulmonary injury was graded according to Radiation Therapy Oncology Group/European Organization For Research and Treatment (RTOG/EORTC) diagnostic and grading criteria. Grade 2 or more radiation pneumonitis was taken as the main end point.@*RESULTS@#Eighteen cases out of 68 developed radiation pneumonitis, 50 of 68 cases have no radiation pneumonia development. There was no significant change of Ape1/Ref-1 levels before and after radiotherapy in radiation pneumonitis group (P>0.05). There was no significant change of Ape1/Ref-1 concentration in serum after radiotherapy between radiation pneumonitis group and non-radiation pneumonitis group (P>0.05). Compared with before radiotherapy, upregulation degree of ICAM-1 levels in radiation pneumonitis group was significantly higher than that in non- radiation pneumonitis group (P<0.05). There was no significant change of IL-17A concentration before and after radiotherapy in radiation pneumonitis group, but after radiotherapy IL-17A concentration in serum were remarkably higher than that in non-radiation pneumonitis group (P<0.05). Correlation analysis found that the change of ICAM-1 before and after radiotherapy has no obvious correlation with the incidence of radiation pneumonitis, and IL-17A change has obvious correlation with the incidence of radiation pneumonitis.@*CONCLUSIONS@#On the basis of strictly controlling radiation dose on normal tissue, IL-17A in serum could be the predictive factors of radiation pneumonitis for local advanced NSCLC patients with concurrent chemoradiotherapy.

Objective To investigate the influences of Leptospira interrogans (L.interrogans) in-fection on the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion mole-cule-1 (VCAM-1) on endothelial cells. Methods Expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 at mRNA level was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) after infecting human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with L.interrogans strain Lai. Silver staining was used to detect leptospires in lung,liver and kidney tissues of L.interrogans-infected C3H/HeJ mice. Expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in lung,liver and kidney tissues of L.interrogans-infected mice was measured with immunohistochemistry. Results L.interrogans infection increased the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on HUVEC(P<0.05). Moreover,the expression of VCAM-1 at mRNA level was significantly higher than that of ICAM-1 (P<0.05). Silver-stained leptospires could be found in lung,liver and kidney tissues of L.interrogans-infected C3H/HeJ mice. Results of the immunohistochemical examination showed that increased expression of both ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 could be detected in ling,liver and kidney tissues of L.interrogans-infected mice,and the VCAM-1 level was significantly higher than that of ICAM-1 in every tissue sample(P<0.05). Conclu-sion L.interrogans infection could induce the expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 on endothelial cells and increase the expression of VCAM-1 to a level significantly higher than that of ICAM-1, which mediated the infiltration of specific inflammatory cells to the site of infection.

Protective effect of Longxue Tongluo capsule on oxidized low-density lipoprotein damage to human umbilical vein endothelial cells / 中国中药杂志

To observe the protective effect of Longxue Tongluo capsule (LTC) on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (EAhy.926 cells) injury induced by oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL, 100 mg·L⁻¹). The effect of the cell viability of LTCin alleviating OX-LDL-induced endothelial cell injury was determined by MTT and LDH assay. The effect of LTC on lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), nitric oxide (NO), super oxide dlsmutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were detected by corresponding assay kits according to manufacturer's instruction. The effect of LTC on the protein expressions of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), p65, p-p65, IKB and p-IKB were detected by Western blot. The results showed that compared with the normal control group, the activity of EAhy.926 cells was significantly decreased, LDH leakage (<0.01) increased, NO content and SOD activity significantly decreased (<0.01, <0.05), and the expressions of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, p-p65/p65 and p-IKB(<0.05)increased.This study demonstrated that LTC had no significant effect on the growth of normal cells. The treatment with LTC significantly promoted the proliferation of vascular endothelial cells damagedby ox-LDL, decreased MDA content and LDH release, andincreased the activity of SOD and NO content. Meanwhile, ox-LDL significantly increased the expressions of ICAM-1, VCAM-1, p-p65/p65, p-IKB/IKB in Eahy.926 cells; these effects were suppressed by LTC at 1, 2 mg·L⁻¹. In conclusion, LTC has a significant protective effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells caused by ox-LDL. This study suggested that LTC has a certain therapeutic effect on AS.

The association study of rs5498 (A/G K469E) and rs1799969 (G/A R241G) in intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene polymorphism with diabetic peripheral neuropathy in Han population / 天津医药

Objective To investigate the association of genetic polymorphisms of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN). Methods A total of 607 type 2 diabetes patients from the Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical University were enrolled in this study between June 2013 and December 2014. Rs5498 (A/G K469E) and rs1799969 (G/A R241G) in the ICAM-1 gene were genotyped by using TaqMan allelic discrimination in 295 patients with DPN and 312 subjects without DPN. The distribution of these two SNPs and the genetic influence of ICAM-1 gene polymorphisms on the development of DPN were conducted. Results Genotype distributions of both SNPs were coincided with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in the two groups. SNP rs1799969 (G/A R241G) in the ICAM-1 gene showed a high GG genotypic frequency at 96.8%(non DPN) and 99.0%(DPN) respectively. SNP rs5498 (A/G K469E) represented AA and AG genotypes. The values were AA 48.7%/AG 39.4%in non DPN group and AA 51.5%/AG 41.7%in DPN group. There were no significant differences in genotypic distributions and allele frequencies of SNPs rs1799969 (G/A R241G) and rs5498 (A/G K469E) between the patients with DPN group and patients without DPN group (P>0.05). The dominant(AA+AG)/GG and additive (GG/AA) models of rs5498 (A/G K469E) were associated with higher risk of DPN (ORadjusted=1.585, 1.575 respectively, P<0.05). To carry A allele was related to the susceptibility of DPN. There was no such association in genetic models of rs1799969 (G/A R241G) and DPN pathogenesis. Conclusion The present study provides evidence that SNP rs5498 E469K (A/G) in the ICAM-1 gene is associated with susceptibility of DPN, and the carrying A allele appears to be a risk of DPN.
