Adhesion of Cerebral Endothelial Cells to Lymphocytes from Patients with Multiple Sclerosis

To investigate the factors regulating the entry of lymphocytes into the brain, we assessed the adhesion in vitro of 51Cr labelled lymphocytes from peripheral blood of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) to human cerebral endothelial cells, and evaluated the effect on the adhesion of endothelium ac...

Zusammenfassung:To investigate the factors regulating the entry of lymphocytes into the brain, we assessed the adhesion in vitro of 51Cr labelled lymphocytes from peripheral blood of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) to human cerebral endothelial cells, and evaluated the effect on the adhesion of endothelium activated by interferon-γ (IFN-γ). lipopolysaccharides (LPS), interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Patients with acute relapsing MS during an exacerbation showed significant increase in MNC adherence to cerebral. endothelial cells as compared with controls (p
