Abstract:
:Adhesion molecules of microvascular endothelial cells play a key role in the inflammatory processes involved in nonallergic sinusitis. We investigated the cytokine-regulated expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), E-selectin and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and the effect of dexamethasone on these expressions in cultured human nasal microvascular endothelial cells (HNMEC). ICAM-1 was enhanced, and E-selectin and VCAM-1 were induced in a dose-dependent fashion following stimulation with IL-1beta or TNF-alpha. HNMEC differed from human umbilical vein endothelila cells in that (1) maximal upregulation of ICAM-1 expression induced by IL-1beta or TNF-alpha required more time (2) TNF-alpha was more potent than IL-1beta in VCAM-1 expression, and (3) dexamethasone inhibited the upregulation of E-selectin expression alone. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the characteristic features of leukocyte infiltration into inflamed tissue and the effect of glucocorticoid in nonallergic chronic sinusitis.
