Abstract:
:A successful immune response depends on the migration of lymphocytes into lymph nodes or inflamed tissues where they make contact with antigen-presenting cells. We are interested in how one member of the integrin family, leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), controls the function and, in particular, the migration of immune cells. We find that this integrin operates not only as an adhesion receptor for T lymphoblasts (T cells) but also induces their migration in vitro at approximately 15 microm/min. Migration requires active myosin light chain kinase at the leading edge and Rho kinase at the trailing edge of the cell. Two active conformations of LFA-1 are differently distributed on the T-cell membrane and regulate independent aspects of migration. High-affinity LFA-1 is located in a midcell 'focal zone' and influences the speed of migration, whereas intermediate affinity LFA-1 controls leading edge adhesions. Manipulating LFA-1 conformation in vivo can be performed, for example, by creating the active conformation in a transgenic mouse, and this model gives further insight into the role of LFA-1 in migration. In humans, the beneficial effect of functioning CD18 integrins in combating infections in vivo is illustrated by rare patients displaying two forms of leukocyte adhesion deficiency. In summary, we speculate that T cells have evolved a mode of rapid migration that is of paramount importance in achieving the high-speed immune surveillance upon which depends the body's protection against diverse invaders from pathogens to cancer cells.
