We investigated whether lipoteichoic acid (LTA) induces the expression of E-selectin and neutrophil adhesion to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). LTA (0.01-30 micrograms/ml) induced the expression of E-selectin in a concentration-dependent manner with maximal response at 10 micrograms/ml. The expression level of E-selectin increased from 2 h after stimulation by LTA with the maximal level at 4-8 h. Neutrophil adhesion to LTA-treated HUVECs correlated with the levels of E-selectin expression. In addition, the adhesion was clearly inhibited by anti-human E-selectin monoclonal antibody CY-1787 as well as a sialyl Lewis X (SLeX) oligosaccharide. LTA-induced expression of E-selectin was inhibited by protein kinase C inhibitors, H-7 and staurosporine. These results indicate that LTA induced the expression of E-selectin and neutrophils adhered to HUVECs via E-selectin.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans
D009504 Neutrophils Granular leukocytes having a nucleus with three to five lobes connected by slender threads of chromatin, and cytoplasm containing fine inconspicuous granules and stainable by neutral dyes.

D011135 Polysaccharides, Bacterial Polysaccharides found in bacteria and in capsules thereof. Bacterial Polysaccharides
D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
