摘要
Atherosclerosis causes occlusions in as many as 50% of human saphenous Vein coronary artery bypass grafts. Monocyte infiltration is an early step in saphenous vein-graft atherosclerosis, however, comparatively little is known of its underlying mechanisms. As a first approach, we sought to define the occurrence, location and regulation of leukocyte adhesion molecules in human saphenous vein before and after surgical preparation for grafting, during neointima formation in culture and on stimulation with inflammatory cytokines. We compared the distribution of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1) and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule (PECAM-1 or CD-31) in endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells (SMCs), using immunocytochemistry. ICAM-1 was expressed on endothelial cells before culture and on both endothelial cells and medial or neointimal SMCs after culturing vein for 14 days in 30% foetal bovine serum or after culturing for 24 h with TNF-alpha. Relative tissue levels of ICAM-1 measured by Western blotting were significantly elevated by culturing freshly-isolated (0.02 +/- 0.01 to 0.18 +/- 0.03) and surgically-prepared (0.02 +/- 0.01 to 0.14 +/- 0.03; n = 6) veins or following TNF-alpha treatment of surgically-prepared veins (0.04 +/- 0.01 to 0.32 +/- 0.11, n = 7). VCAM-1 was undetectable before or after culturing but was strongly upregulated on endothelial cells by incubation with the cytokines TNF-alpha, IL-1 alpha or interferon-gamma. PECAM-1 was expressed constitutively on endothelial cells. We conclude that human saphenous vein expresses several adhesion molecules capable of mediating monocyte migration. The increased expression of ICAM-1 in SMC after culturing or cytokine treatment and of VCAM-1 in endothelial cells suggests that interactions with beta 1 and beta 2 integrins are important pathways for stimulated monocyte ingress into human saphenous vein grafts.
