Abstract:
:Although antibodies to HLA play a role in the pathogenesis of diseases processes such as rejection of transplanted organs, the precise mechanisms by which antibodies cause tissue injury are not completely understood. We hypothesized that antibodies to host tissues cause inflammation in part by activating endothelial exocytosis of granules that contain prothrombotic mediators such as von Willebrand Factor (VWF) and proinflammatory mediators such as P-selectin. To test this hypothesis, we treated human endothelial cells with murine monoclonal antibody W6/32 to HLA class I and then measured exocytosis by the release of VWF and the externalization of P-selectin. Antibody to HLA activates endothelial exocytosis in a dose-dependent manner over time. The biologically active complement split product, C5a, adds a slight but significant increase to antibody induction of exocytosis. Antibody to HLA alone or with C5a did not damage the cells. Cross-linking of HLA appears to play a role in the ability of antibody to activate exocytosis, because the W6/32 monovalent Fab fragment did not activate VWF release, but the bivalent Fab'2 was effective in triggering exocytosis. To explore the in vivo effects of antibody upon graft injury, we infused W6/32 Fab'2 antibody to human HLA into severe combined immunodeficient/beige mice that had been transplanted with human skin grafts. Antibody to HLA activated exocytosis and inflammation in human skin grafts. Our data show that antibody to host antigens can activate human endothelial cell exocytosis and leukocyte trafficking. By triggering vascular inflammation, antibody activation of exocytosis may play a role in transplant rejection.
