PG - C1112-8 AB - Migration of monocytes to sites of inflammation involves a series of attachments and detachments to extracellular matrix proteins. We examined the capacity of a chemokine, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), to regulate attachment of human monocytes to laminin, collagen I, collagen IV, or fibronectin. MCP-1 increased monocyte attachment to laminin in a dose- and time-dependent manner and stimulated a lesser increase to the other matrix proteins. Function-blocking monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the integrin beta 2-subunit (CD18), including Fab' fragments and alpha M (CD11b) blocked > 70% of attachment, whereas MAbs to the beta 1-integrin subunit reduced attachment by < 30%. This suggests that the CD11b/CD18 integrin is the predominant molecule involved in adhesion of MCP-1-stimulated monocytes to laminin. The association of CD11b with F-actin illustrated by confocal microscopy further supports this concept. In contrast, when monocytes were stimulated with the beta 1-stimulatory MAb TS2/16, monocyte adhesion to laminin occurred through beta 1-integrins. Thus MCP-1 can stimulate monocyte attachment to laminin, and this process is mediated through beta 2-integrins, principally CD11b/CD18.
