Expression of e‐selectin messenger RNA and protein in rheumatoid arthritis

Abstract: Objective. To examine the de novo synthesis and cellular distribution of the E-selectin adhesion molecule in synovial tissues obtained from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods. Immunohistochemistry techniques combined with in situ hybridization were used to examine RA synovium.Results. There were numerous endothelial cells positive for E-selectin and E-selectin messenger RNA in the RA synovial membranes. Moreover, E-selectin expression appeared to correlate with inflammatory activity. Conclusion. T… Show more

“…This is probably not related to disease duration but to topographical variations in CAM endothelial expression. More strict association between CAM vascular expression and MNC infiltrate has been found in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) [17,18]. We previously showed that CS treatment is associated with a reduced number of blood vessels [2].…”

“…Both E-and P-selectin (CD62E and CD62P, respectively) are expressed on RA synovial endothelium (15,16,20,21); however, only the expression of E-selectin, and not P-selectin, is increased in RA compared with osteoarthritis or normal synovium (lS,16). ICAM-1 is widely expressed in the synovia1 membrane of R A patients, including the vascular endothelium, synovial lining macrophages, and fibroblasts, as well as infiltrating leukocytes, on which it is expressed at higher levels in RA than in normal synovium (15,17,(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27).…”

“…E-selectin (also known as endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule -1 [ELAM-1]) is implicated in the pathogenesis of RA, and its expression level is increased in the inflamed synovial endothelium [222]. Radiolabeled mAb for E-selectin (e.g.…”
