Zusatzinfos

The junctional adhesion molecule-C (JAM-C) was recently shown to be a counter receptor for the leukocyte beta2-integrin Mac-1 (CD11b/CD18), thereby mediating interactions between vascular cells, particularly in inflammatory cell recruitment. Here, we investigated the role of JAM-C in oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-mediated leukocyte recruitment. As compared with normal arteries, immunostaining of atherosclerotic vessels revealed a high expression of JAM-C in association with neointimal smooth muscle cells and the endothelium. Moreover, JAM-C was strongly up-regulated in the spontaneous early lesions in ApoE -/- mice. In vitro, cultured human arterial smooth muscle cells (HASMC) were found to express JAM-C, and oxLDL, as well as enzymatically modified LDL (eLDL) significantly up-regulated JAM-C on both HASMC and endothelial cells in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Although under quiescent conditions, JAM-C predominantly localized to interendothelial cell-cell contacts in close proximity to zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), oxLDL treatment induced a disorganization of JAM-C localization that was no more restricted to the interendothelial junctions. JAM-C thereby mediated both leukocyte adhesion and leukocyte transendothelial migration upon oxLDL treatment of endothelial cells, whereas JAM-C on quiescent endothelial cells only mediates leukocyte transmigration. Thus, upon oxLDL stimulation endothelial JAM-C functions as both an adhesion, as well as a transmigration receptor for leukocytes. Taken together, JAM-C is up-regulated by oxLDL and may thereby contribute to increased inflammatory cell recruitment during atherosclerosis. JAM-C may therefore provide a novel molecular target for antagonizing interactions between vascular cells in atherosclerosis.
