A murine anti-rat intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb), 1A29, was used to investigate the importance of blood leukocyte-associated beta 2-integrin (CD11/CD18) vascular endothelium-associated ICAM-1 adhesive interactions in the reversed passive Arthus reaction (RPAR) in rats. An Arthus pleurisy reaction (4 h) was employed in these studies because it permits the accurate quantitation of polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) influx into the pleural space and fluid accumulation. 1A29, which localized within Arthus lung lesions, caused a dose-dependent (0.5-2.0 mg/kg, i.v.) inhibition of PMN influx (19-56%) and exudate volume (9-55%) in the Arthus pleurisy reaction. P7 (2 mg/kg, i.v.), a murine anti-human P-selectin mAb used as an isotype-matched control for 1A29, did not localize at the lung lesion site and was inactive. Immunohistochemical analysis of lung tissue from 1A29-treated rats demonstrated increased granulocyte accumulation in the alveolar capillaries compared with more extensive granulocyte emigration into the lung tissue and pleural space in P7-treated rats and Arthus control rats; however, quantitative image analysis revealed increased numbers of lung granulocytes in 1A29-treated rats compared with controls. Neither ICAM-1 mRNA nor expression, assessed by immunocytochemistry, was increased above control levels in rats during the pleural Arthus reaction. Neutropenia was not observed in either 1A29- or P7-treated rats.

D006098	Granulocytes	Leukocytes with abundant granules in the cytoplasm. They are divided into three groups according to the staining properties of the granules: neutrophilic, eosinophilic, and basophilic. Mature granulocytes are the NEUTROPHILS; EOSINOPHILS; and BASOPHILS.	Granulocyte
D000818	Animals	Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000911	Antibodies, Monoclonal	Antibodies produced by a single clone of cells.	Monoclonal Antibodies,Monoclonal Antibody,Antibody, Monoclonal
D001183	Arthus Reaction	A dermal inflammatory reaction produced under conditions of antibody excess, when a second injection of antigen produces intravascular antigen-antibody complexes which bind complement, causing cell clumping, endothelial damage, and vascular necrosis.	Arthus Phenomenon,Phenomenon, Arthus,Reaction, Arthus
D012333	RNA, Messenger	RNA sequences that serve as templates for protein synthesis. Bacterial mRNAs are generally primary transcripts in that they do not require post-transcriptional processing. Eukaryotic mRNA is synthesized in the nucleus and must be exported to the cytoplasm for translation. Most eukaryotic mRNAs have a sequence of polyadenylic acid at the 3' end, referred to as the poly(A) tail. The function of this tail is not known for certain, but it may play a role in the export of mature mRNA from the nucleus as well as in helping stabilize some mRNA molecules by retarding their degradation in the cytoplasm.
