We have studied the role of E-selectin in leukocyte accumulation into Ag-specific cutaneous delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions in pigs sensitized to the topical application of 2,4-dinitro-1-fluorobenzene or to the intradermal injection of bacillus Calmette-Guerin. The delayed- type hypersensitivity reactions were shown to be specific for the sensitizing Ag and characterized by the up-regulation of E-selectin, as demonstrated by the uptake of tracer 99mTc-labeled monoclonal anti-E- selectin mAb and entry of 51Cr-labeled PBL and (111)In-labeled polymorphonuclear cells (PMN). Intravenous injection of 5 mg/kg of a F(ab')2 preparation of a monoclonal anti-E-selectin Ab at peak times of leukocyte entry resulted in a significant inhibition of entry of both PMN and lymphocytes. The anti-E-selectin Ab inhibited PMN recruitment by 70 to 90% and lymphocyte recruitment by 50 to 60%. In comparison, an anti-CD18 treatment reduced PMN recruitment by 70 to 90% and lymphocyte recruitment by 60 to 70% in this model. These data confirm an important role for E-selectin in the recruitment of both PMN and lymphocytes to sites of immune-based dermal inflammation.
