Association between kinin B(1) receptor expression and leukocyte trafficking across mouse mesenteric postcapillary venules

Abstract

Using intravital microscopy, we examined the role played by B(1) receptors in leukocyte trafficking across mouse mesenteric postcapillary venules in vivo. B(1) receptor blockade attenuated interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced (5 ng intraperitoneally, 2 h) leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions and leukocyte emigration ( approximately 50% reduction). The B(1) receptor agonist des-Arg(9)bradykinin (DABK), although inactive in saline- or IL-8-treated mice, caused marked neutrophil rolling, adhesion, and emigration 24 h after challenge with IL-1beta (when the cellular response to IL-1beta had subsided). Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction and Western blot revealed a temporal association between the DABK-induced response and upregulation of mesenteric B(1) receptor mRNA and de novo protein expression after IL-1beta treatment. DABK-induced leukocyte trafficking was antagonized by the B(1) receptor antagonist des-arg(10)HOE 140 but not by the B(2) receptor antagonist HOE 140. Similarly, DABK effects were maintained in B(2) receptor knockout mice. The DABK-induced responses involved the release of neuropeptides from C fibers, as capsaicin treatment inhibited the responses. Treatment with the neurokinin (NK)(1) and NK(3) receptor antagonists attenuated the responses, whereas NK(2), calcitonin gene-related peptide, or platelet-activating factor receptor antagonists had no effect. Substance P caused leukocyte recruitment that, similar to DABK, was inhibited by NK(1) and NK(3) receptor blockade. Mast cell depletion using compound 48/80 reduced DABK-induced leukocyte trafficking, and DABK treatment was shown histologically to induce mast cell degranulation. DABK-induced trafficking was inhibited by histamine H(1) receptor blockade. Our findings provide clear evidence that B(1) receptors play an important role in the mediation of leukocyte-endothelial cell interactions in postcapillary venules, leading to leukocyte recruitment during an inflammatory response. This involves activation of C fibers and mast cells, release of substance P and histamine, and stimulation of NK(1), NK(3), and H(1) receptors.

B1 receptor (435 bp) and GAPDH (363 bp) PCR products amplified from polyA+ RNA extracted from mesenteric vascular beds from either saline- (0.25 ml, intraperitoneally) or IL-1β–treated (5 ng in 0.25 ml saline, intraperitoneally) mice. Positive PCR control is a mouse B1 receptor cDNA plasmid. Results are representative of tissue from at least three animals per group. Inset: PCR product yield as a function of initial amount of cDNA. Serial dilutions of cDNA before PCR results in a log plot in which a linear relationship between starting amount of cDNA and product intensity is observed.

Mesenteric tissue were taken from either saline- (0.25 ml intraperitoneally) or IL-1β–treated (5 ng in 0.25 ml saline intraperitoneally) mice. Results are representative of tissue from four experiments. + anti B1 represents inhibition of detection of the 39-kD band when the antibody is preincubated (overnight at 4°C) with the A15C peptide at a concentration of 10 μg/ml. Molecular mass marker proteins were run simultaneously. Their molecular masses (kD) are shown on the left side of the figure.
