ICAM-3 is expressed at high levels on myeloid leukocytes, but its function on these cells is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that it transduces outside-in proinflammatory signals using immobilized mAbs to engage ICAM-3 on freshly isolated human monocytes and neutrophils. Two immobilized Abs that recognize epitopes in the extracellular domain 1 of ICAM-3, which is critical for recognition by the {alpha}L2 integrin, potently induced secretion of MIP-1{alpha}, IL-8, and MCP-1 by monocytes and triggered IL-8 secretion by neutrophils. These chemokines are products of immediate-early genes that are induced when myeloid cells are activated. Chemokine secretion induced by "triggering" Abs was greater than that induced by isotype-matched immobilized Abs against ICAM-1, ICAM-2, PECAM-1, control Igs, or immobilized control proteins. Coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc receptors (Fc{gamma}RI or Fc{gamma}RII) was required for maximal chemokine secretion by monocytes. Microscopy documented that there is also dramatic spreading of monocytes when surface ICAM-3 is engaged by immobilized Abs. Spreading was induced by Fab and F(ab')2 fragments of triggering anti-ICAM-3 mAb, demonstrating direct outside-in signaling, but was not required for chemokine secretion. These experiments indicate that ICAM-3 may transmit outside-in signals when it is engaged by ß2 integrins during myeloid cell-cell interactions in inflammatory lesions. Binding of Fc receptors by Ig in the local environment can amplify the responses.

Intercellular interactions in the inflammatory and vascular systems localize blood cells to sites of microbial invasion and tissue injury and also mediate the transfer of signals between endothelial cells, leukocytes, and platelets (1, 2). Several families of adhesion molecules are involved in these interactions (3). One of these is the ICAM group. Three members of the ICAM family have been identified in humans: ICAM-1, ICAM-2, and ICAM-3. ICAM-3, previously called ICAM-R, is the most recently discovered (4, 5, 6, 7). Each family member is a transmembrane protein with extracellular domains made up of IgG-like motifs. There is considerable sequence similarity among the three ICAM family members in the extracellular regions, and they are recognized by a common counterligand, {alpha}L2 integrin (CD11a/CD18; LFA-1) (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9). There are also differences in the three ICAM adhesion proteins. ICAM-1 binds to a second ß2 integrin, {alpha}M2, whereas ICAM-3 does not (10). ICAM-3 is preferentially recognized by {alpha}D2 integrin, the most recently identified leukocyte integrin, when binding is compared with that of ICAM-1 (11). With the exception of certain tumor endothelial cells (reviewed in 12 , ICAM-3 is restricted to circulating and fixed leukocytes, whereas ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 have different cellular distributions (4, 5, 6, 13, 14, 15). These features suggest that the three family members subserve overlapping but different biologic functions. Furthermore, there is structural variation between the three proteins. ICAM-3 differs considerably from ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 in the transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains (5, 6, 7). The difference in the sequence of the cytoplasmic domain of ICAM-3 from those of ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 suggests the possibility that it has unique intracellular associations and signaling functions (6, 7).

Under some conditions, engagement of surface adhesion molecules induces activation of intracellular signaling cascades, a process that is termed outside-in signaling and that causes altered cellular function and responses. Outside-in signaling mediates juxtacrine activation during adhesive interactions involving leukocytes and other cells (2). Here we show that engagement of extracellular domains of ICAM-3 on freshly isolated human monocytes and neutrophils (PMNs)3 by mAbs induces synthesis and secretion of chemokines and causes cellular spreading. Thus, ICAM-3 may be a juxtacrine signaling ligand on myeloid cells when it binds ß2 integrins on other leukocytes in inflamed vessels and tissues.

Table I. Immobilized Abs 5.1 and 8.1 against ICAM-3 trigger secretion of MIP-1{alpha} by human monocytes

 
Sandwich ELISAs (see below) were developed using Abs and recombinant human chemokines obtained from R&D Systems (IL-8, TNF-{alpha}, and MIP-1{alpha}) and Genzyme (Cambridge, MA) (MCP-1). Conjugated affinity-isolated goat anti-mouse Igs used in flow cytometry were from Biosource International, Camarillo, CA.

Cells

Adult human PMNs were isolated from blood as described (17). Human blood monocytes were isolated by countercurrent elutriation (18). Procedures for collection of blood samples were approved by the University of Utah Institutional Review Board.

Flow cytometry

Isolated monocytes or PMNs were incubated on ice for 1 h in the presence of 10 µg/ml of anti-ICAM-3 or control Abs. Cells were washed with FACS media (HBSS/10% goat serum/2.5% human albumin), centrifuged at 8000 x g, and incubated with a FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse Ab for 30 min. Cells were washed and fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde and examined by flow cytometry.

Measurement of chemokine and cytokine secretion

Four-well tissue culture plates (Intermed; Nunc, Naperville, IL) were coated with Abs (300 µl/well, 10 µg/ml) overnight at 4°C, washed, and then blocked with 2% HSA for 1.5 h at room temperature. The wells were washed with 0.1% Tween-20 in HBSS three times and with HBSS twice. Purified monocytes (0.5 x 106 cells/ml) or PMNs (0.5 to 5.5 x 106 cell/ml) resuspended in M199 containing polymyxin B (1 µg/ml) were added to the wells (450 µl cell suspension/well) under sterile conditions. Buffer alone (HBSS with 2% human albumin) or LPS in buffer was added in 50-µl aliquots to some of the wells in some experiments. The plates were incubated at 37°C in 5%CO2/95% air for the indicated times. After the incubation period, the supernatants were removed and centrifuged at 15,800 x g in a microcentrifuge for 5 min. The cell-free supernatants were aspirated and frozen at -20°C or -70°C for subsequent analysis by ELISA.

Measurements of leukocyte binding by immobilized Abs

Monocytes were labeled with 111In (18). Monocytes (2 x 105 cells/ml in serum-free M199 with 1 µg/ml polymyxin B) were added to wells coated with immobilized Abs as described above. After a 5- to 60-min incubation at 37°C in 5%CO2/95% air, adherence in each well was assessed by removing loosely adherent cells by aspiration followed by lysis of adherent cells with 1 M NH4OH and scraping. Cellular fractions were pooled and radioactivity was measured using a Beckman Gamma 5500 counter (Torrance, CA).

Assays of leukocyte spreading

Plastic chamber slides (Nunc) were incubated overnight with 200 to 300 µl/well of HBSS alone or HBSS with 10 µg/ml of Ab. Unbound sites were blocked by incubating each well with 500 µl of 2% serum albumin for 2 h at room temperature. The plates were washed with 0.1% Tween-20 in HBSS three times and then with HBSS twice. Monocytes (300–450 µl, 0.25–0.5 x 106 cells/ml) in serum-free M199 were added under sterile conditions. Control buffer (HBSS containing 2% human albumin) or LPS in buffer was added in 50-µl aliquots to some of the wells in some experiments. The cells were incubated for the designated time period at 37°C in 5%C02/95% air. The wells were then washed with HBSS and adherent cells were fixed and stained using a Diff-Quick (Baxter McGaw Park, IL) staining kit. Fixed cells were scored as rounded (no spreading) or spread using morphologic characteristics previously illustrated (18). Random fields were examined under x40 magnification until 100 cells were characterized. Observations of live cells by inverse light microscopy were also made during incubations in experiments measuring chemokine secretion.

ELISAs

ELISAs for chemokines and cytokines were done as described (18) or using minor modifications of this method. Briefly, Costar (Cambridge, MA) 96-well E.I.A. plates were coated with anti-human mAbs (4 µg/ml) against MIP-1{alpha}, IL-8, MCP-1, or TNF-{alpha}. After an overnight incubation at 4°C, the plates were blocked with 2% BSA in PBS, and then washed four times with PBS/0.05% Tween-20. Standards and unknown samples were added in 50-µl aliquots (neat, or diluted 1:2 to 1:10 with PBS/BSA) and incubated for 90 min for IL-8 and TNF-{alpha} or 60 min for MIP-1{alpha} and MCP-1. Biotinylated anti-human mAbs against the respective chemokines were added and incubated for 90 min for IL-8 and TNF-{alpha} and 45 min for MCP-1 or MIP-1{alpha}. In all, 50 µl/well of avidin-peroxidase (8 µg/10 ml) were added and incubated for 30 min for assays of IL-8 or TNF-{alpha} and 60 min for assays of MCP-1 or MIP-1{alpha}. Plates were developed with 100 µl/well of peroxidase substrate. The reaction was stopped with 50 µl/well of 1N H2SO4 and the OD was measured at 492 nm.

Engagement of ICAM-3 induces chemokine secretion by monocytes

To test the hypothesis that engagement of ICAM-3 on myeloid leukocytes mediates outside-in signaling, we immobilized Abs against ICAM-3 and determined whether their binding to monocytes triggered the synthesis and secretion of chemokines and cytokines. In parallel studies, engagement of ICAM-3 on monocytes induced transcripts for IL-8 and MIP-1{alpha} and engagement of ICAM-3 on a human myeloid cell line via immobilized Ab induced rapid sustained up-regulation of messenger RNA for MIP-1{alpha} and reporter gene activity linked to MIP-1{alpha} promoter elements (J. Kessel, unpublished observations; J. Hayflick et al., unpublished observations). In the current experiments, however, we focused on secretion of MIP-1{alpha} and other chemokines as the biologically relevant "readout" since there is evidence that adhesion-dependent signaling can induce mRNAs without synthesis of the corresponding proteins by monocytes under some circumstances (19). Secretion of MIP-1{alpha} was potently induced when ICAM-3 was engaged by immobilized mAb 8.1 and mAb 5.1 (Table IGo) but was at basal levels when monocytes were incubated with a control protein, albumin (Figs. 1Go and 2). Secretion of IL-8 was also induced (Figs. 1Go and 2Go). MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 secretion triggered by mAb 5.1 or 8.1 was greater than that by monocytes incubated with irrelevant Igs or Abs to other surface determinants (Figs. 1Go and 3Go, and Table IGo; also see below). In an additional experiment, Abs 8.1 and 5.1 also triggered MCP-1 secretion (950 pg/ml MCP-1 induced by mAb 8.1, 1000 pg/ml induced by mAb 5.1, 200 pg/ml induced by immobilized albumin at 8 h of incubation).

FIGURE 1. Engagement of ICAM-3 by a "triggering" mAb against ICAM-3 induces MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 secretion by human monocytes. Immobilized Ab 8.1 was used to engage ICAM-3 on human monocytes for 8 h as described in Materials and Methods, and cell-free supernatants were analyzed by ELISA for MIP-1{alpha} (A) and IL-8 (B). The number of experiments and the statistical significance comparing the release of monocytes incubated with immobilized anti-ICAM-3 vs immobilized irrelevant IgG are shown in each panel. The p value represents a two-tailed, paired t test comparing chemokine secretion by monocytes incubated with immobilized mAb 8.1 vs IgG isotype control. The thresholds of detection of chemokines were 0.2 ng/ml for IL-8 and 0.1 ng/ml to 0.15 ng/ml for MIP-1{alpha} in these assays.

FIGURE 2. Anti-ICAM-3 Abs differ in potency as triggers for MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 secretion. mAbs 1.1, 2.1, 8.1, and 5.1 were used to engage domain 1 of ICAM-3 on human monocytes, and secretion of chemokines was measured as described in Materials and Methods and Figure 1Go. mAbs 8.1 and 2.1 are of the IgG1 isotype and mAbs 5.1 and 1.1 are IgG2a; each Ab recognizes domain I of ICAM-3 (Table IGo).

FIGURE 3. Engagement of ICAM-3 on human monocytes induces time-dependent secretion of chemokines. Freshly isolated monocytes were incubated with immobilized anti-ICAM-3 (mAb 8.1) (circles), immobilized irrelevant IgG (squares), or immobilized albumin (cross marks) for the times shown. Supernatants were collected and assayed for MIP-1{alpha} (A) or IL-8 (B) as described in Materials and Methods. Similar time courses were seen in a second experiment performed under similar conditions.

 
mAbs 8.1 and 5.1 are directed against the first N-terminal extracellular domain of ICAM-3 (domain 1) (16), a region that is critical for interaction with its natural ligand, {alpha}L2 integrin (6, 16, 20, 21). Several other immobilized anti-ICAM-3 Abs studied in parallel were much less potent as inducers of chemokine secretion, including some Igs directed against domain 1 determinants (Table IGo, Fig. 2Go) (16, 22). This indicates that particular structural features within domain 1 influence outside-in signaling when ICAM-3 is engaged. Binding of radiolabeled monocytes to immobilized anti-ICAM-3 Abs with different triggering potencies was equivalent, although there was some variation from experiment to experiment (not shown).

Engagement of ICAM-3 by mAb 5.1 or 8.1 induced time-dependent secretion of chemokines by monocytes. Release of MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 was below the thresholds of detection for the assays immediately following isolation of the leukocytes, but rose rapidly between 2 and 8 h after ICAM-3 was engaged and continued at 18 to 24 h (Fig. 3Go and data not shown). Monocytes examined at 2 to 24 h of serum-free incubation were viable, as assessed by trypan blue exclusion.

To determine the functional significance of chemokine secretion triggered by outside-in signaling via ICAM-3, we incubated monocytes with immobilized mAb 8.1 for 8 h, a time point that corresponded to near-maximal stimulation (Fig. 3Go), and asked whether the conditioned supernatants contained activity that induced PMN chemotaxis. The conditioned supernatants stimulated PMN transmigration across 5-µM filters; the magnitude of stimulated migration was threefold greater than that induced by conditioned supernatants from monocytes incubated on immobilized albumin in parallel, and approached that stimulated by the chemoattractant FMLP (not shown). Transmigration of PMNs across endothelial monolayers grown on filters was also induced. The presence of chemotactic activity in conditioned supernatants from monocytes incubated with immobilized mAb 8.1 is consistent with secretion of IL-8 ( Figs. 1–3GoGoGo), a known chemoattractant for PMNs. Direct assay of the IL-8 concentration in these samples revealed 23.0 ng/ml in the conditioned supernatant from monocytes incubated on immobilized mAb 8.1 compared with 0.7 ng/ml in the supernatant from monocytes incubated on immobilized albumin.

Minimal or no TNF-{alpha} secretion was induced by engagement of ICAM-3 using any of the immobilized Abs (threshold of detection, 0.2 ng/ml). This finding indicated that the release of MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 induced by triggering Abs ( Figs. 1–3GoGoGo, Table IGo) was not due to contamination of the Ab preparations with LPS, since monocytes stimulated with LPS in parallel secreted TNF-{alpha} as well as these chemokines (not shown). In addition, polymyxin B, an inhibitor of LPS (23, 24), was included in most incubations and did not block secretion of MIP-1{alpha}, IL-8, or MCP-1 induced by immobilized Abs against ICAM-3.

Triggering of outside-in signals in monocytes is a specific property of certain anti-ICAM-3 mAbs

Analysis of the abilities of individual Abs against ICAM-3 to trigger outside-in signals for chemokine secretion by monocytes indicated that this feature is a characteristic of some of the Igs but not others, implying that they recognize specific regions of the adhesion protein involved in signaling (see above and Table IGo). To further insure that signaling induced by the triggering Abs is specific and is not reproduced by Abs that engage random regions of molecules of similar structure that are also represented on the monocyte surface, we examined mAbs against ICAM-1, ICAM-2, and ICAM-3 in parallel. We first used mAbs 8.1 and 5.1 against ICAM-3 and additional Abs against ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 (Table IGo) to examine the distribution of these adhesion proteins on freshly isolated myeloid leukocytes. We found that ICAM-3 is more highly expressed on monocytes than are ICAM-1 or ICAM-2; on PMNs, ICAM-3 is more highly expressed than ICAM-1, and ICAM-2 is not detectable (not shown). These patterns are similar to those in previous experiments using different Abs (4, 6). We then compared mAb 8.1 and Abs of the same isotype directed against ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 as inducers of outside-in signaling in monocytes. The rank order of potency of these immobilized Abs as triggers for chemokine secretion was anti-ICAM-3 >> anti-ICAM-2 > anti-ICAM-1 (Fig. 4Go). In additional experiments, we compared engagement of ICAM-3 to ligation of another member of the IgG superfamily that is expressed on monocytes and that mediates outside-in signaling in leukocytes, PECAM-1 (25–27; reviewed in 28 . An immobilized Ab against PECAM-1, hec-7 (IgG2a, directed against the first N-terminal extracellular domain; Refs. 29, 30), triggered no more secretion of chemokines than did immobilized albumin or anti-ICAM-1 studied in parallel, whereas immobilized mAbs 5.1 and 8.1 induced release of MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8, as expected from previous experiments (Fig. 5Go). When examined by flow cytometric analysis, hec-7 bound only slightly less well to monocytes than did the Abs against ICAM-3 (not shown), indicating that PECAM-1 and ICAM-3 have roughly equivalent representation on the monocyte surface.

FIGURE 4. ICAM-3 mediates potent outside-in signaling of chemokine secretion by monocytes when compared with ICAM-1 and ICAM-2. Immobilized Abs were used to engage ICAM family members on human monocytes for 8 h, and chemokine secretion was analyzed by ELISA as described in Figure 1Go and Materials and Methods. The mAbs used were: mAb 8.1 for ICAM-3, mAb 18E3D for ICAM-1, and mAb H11A for ICAM-2. Each mAb is of the IgG1 isotype. Secretion of MIP-1{alpha} by monocytes incubated with immobilized albumin and with immobilized irrelevant IgG1 ("isotype control") was measured in parallel. The p value for a two-tailed, paired t test comparing chemokine secretion by monocytes incubated with immobilized anti-ICAM-3 mAb vs IgG isotype control is shown.

This figure represents the mean ± SE of two experiments performed in duplicate.

 
Engagement of ICAM-3 induces chemokine secretion by PMNs

We found that PMNs release IL-8 when ICAM-3 is engaged by triggering anti-ICAM-3 Abs (Fig. 6Go). In contrast to the result with monocytes, no MIP-1{alpha} or MCP-1 secretion was induced. Again, no TNF-{alpha} secretion was triggered when PMNs were incubated with activating anti-ICAM-3 Abs. The relative potencies of anti-ICAM-3 mAb as triggers for chemokine secretion were similar in PMNs and monocytes (Figs. 1Go, 2Go, and 6Go), although this was not examined as extensively in PMNs as in the latter cell type.

FIGURE 6. Engagement of ICAM-3 by a triggering mAb induces IL-8 secretion by human PMNs. Isolated human PMNs were incubated with immobilized anti-ICAM-3 mAbs or with immobilized albumin for 8 h before the supernatants were collected and assayed for IL-8 as described in Materials and Methods and Figure 2Go.

 
Coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc receptors triggers enhanced chemokine secretion by human monocytes

We analyzed chemokine secretion by monocytes incubated with full-length anti-ICAM-3 mAbs, with F(ab')2 or Fab fragments of the same Abs, or with irrelevant murine IgG1 or IgG2a to examine the interplay between Fc receptors and ICAM-3. We first examined coengagement involving Fc{gamma}RII, which recognizes murine IgG1 (reviewed in 31 , using mAb 8.1 (IgG1 class). Separate engagement of ICAM-3 and Fc{gamma}RII triggered a low level of or no chemokine secretion. This was shown in experiments in which a F(ab')2 fragment of mAb 8.1 or full-length murine IgG1 was immobilized separately, and chemokine secretion by adherent monocytes was compared with that of monocytes incubated on full-length mAb 8.1 (Fig. 7Go). In a second strategy, we used a blocking Ab against Fc{gamma}RII, mAb IV.3. Preincubation of monocytes with Fab or full-length IV.3 reduced IL-8 secretion by ~85% when ICAM-3 was engaged by mAb 8.1 as the complete Ig (Fig. 8Go).

FIGURE 7. Coengagement of Fc receptors and ICAM-3 triggers enhanced chemokine secretion by human monocytes. Immobilized mAb 8.1 as a full-length Ig ("mAb") or as the F(ab')2 fragment was examined for the ability to trigger chemokine secretion in parallel with immobilized albumin. After 8 h, secretion of MIP-1{alpha} (A) and IL-8 (B) was measured by ELISA as described in Materials and Methods and Figure 1Go. The figure represents the mean ± SE of three experiments for IL-8 secretion and two experiments for MIP-1{alpha} secretion. In one experiment, immobilized full-length irrelevant IgG1 was studied in parallel, which induced secretion of MIP-1{alpha} slightly above that induced by albumin (not shown) as seen in previous experiments (Figs. 1Go and 3Go).

FIGURE 8. Blocking coengagement of Fc{gamma}RII attenuates chemokine secretion induced by a triggering mAb against ICAM-3. Freshly isolated monocytes were preincubated in suspension with buffer (black bars) or mAb IV.3 (20 µg/ml, gray bar) for 20 min at 37°C. They were then incubated on immobilized full-length mAb 8.1 or immobilized albumin for 8 h and secretion of IL-8 was measured. The results shown are from one experiment performed in duplicate (buffer-treated cells) or quadruplicate (mAb-treated cells) and are representative of two additional experiments done under similar conditions.

 
In additional experiments, engagement of Fc{gamma}RI alone with immobilized murine IgG2a, or ICAM-3 alone with the F(ab')2 fragment of mAb 5.1, triggered submaximal MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 secretion when compared with full-length mAb 5.1 (not shown). mAb 5.1 is of the IgG2a isotype, which is recognized by Fc{gamma}RI (31). As previously reported (32), nonimmune full-length murine IgG2a alone induced IL-8 secretion. However, the levels of chemokine release were lower than those induced by mAb 5.1. Ligation of Fc{gamma}RI alone with murine IgG2a also induced MIP-1{alpha} secretion but, again, at levels lower than those observed with coengagement of ICAM-3. In some experiments, an IgG2a mAb directed against a different surface adhesion molecule (PECAM-1) did not induce chemokine secretion above that of monocytes incubated on albumin, whereas mAb 5.1 triggered release (Fig. 5Go).

Engagement of ICAM-3 induces monocyte spreading

Cellular spreading is linked to induction of genes in a variety of cell types (33, 34) and may be important in the mechanism of expression of chemokine genes in monocytes (35, 36, 37). We next examined the relationship of cellular spreading to chemokine secretion when ICAM-3 is engaged on monocytes. We found that there was dramatic spreading of monocytes on immobilized mAb 8.1 (Fig. 9GoA). Spreading was also induced by immobilized Fab and F(ab')2 fragments of mAb 8.1, demonstrating direct signaling by engagement of ICAM-3 that does not require Fc coengagement (Fig. 9GoB). The spreading response was time and temperature dependent, with the greatest difference seen in cells incubated with anti-ICAM-3 Abs vs control surfaces for 5 min (Fig. 9GoA). Spreading was most rapid when monocytes interacted with full-length immobilized Abs against ICAM-3, suggesting that coengagement of Fc receptors enhances the signal. This interpretation was supported by experiments in which incubation of monocytes with immobilized IgG alone induced spreading but with delayed kinetics compared with cells with ICAM-3 coengaged (Fig. 9GoA).

FIGURE 9. Engagement of ICAM-3 induces monocyte spreading. A, Monocytes were incubated with immobilized mAb 8.1 (circles), nonimmune IgG1 (squares), or albumin (cross marks) for the times indicated, fixed, and examined by light microscopy. Cells were counted and classified as rounded or spread (Materials and Methods). This time course was seen in a second experiment performed under similar conditions. B, Monocytes were incubated with immobilized full-length mAb 8.1 ("mAb"), with immobilized Fab fragments of mAb 8.1, or with immobilized albumin before the percentages of spread cells were determined at 5 min. We found similar spreading responses in a second experiment performed under similar conditions.

 
Because cellular spreading was induced by engagement of ICAM-3, we examined the requirement for cytoskeletal alteration for chemokine secretion. Monocytes were preincubated with the fungal product cytochalasin D, which inhibits actin polymerization (reviewed in 38 . In concentrations sufficient to inhibit monocyte spreading by >=90%, cytochalasin D did not consistently inhibit secretion of MIP-1{alpha} or IL-8 induced by triggering mAbs 8.1 or 5.1 (n = 5). Thus, spreading and chemokine secretion could be dissociated. This result is consistent with a previous experiment in which an immobilized Ab that is weak as a "trigger" for chemokine secretion by myeloid leukocytes, mAb 1.1 (Table IGo, Figs. 2Go and 6Go), induced dramatic spreading but no chemokine release (18).

At the report of its molecular cloning, ICAM-3 was proposed to be an adhesion molecule that is particularly important in initiation of immune responses, in part because of its higher level of constitutive expression on lymphocytes compared with ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 and also because of characteristics of its interaction with {alpha}L2 integrin (4, 5, 6, 39). Several studies indicate that ICAM-3 can tether and mediate outside-in signaling of lymphocytes, lymphocytic cell lines, and thymocytes (39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45). However, ICAM-3 is also expressed at high levels on myeloid leukocytes of adults and newborn infants (4, 5, 6, 39) (J. Kessel, manuscript in preparation). This indicates that it may have particular importance in tethering and signaling of these cells in addition to its putative roles in lymphocyte-mediated immune responses. In studies of adhesion, we found that ICAM-3 can tether myeloid cells (J. Kessel et al., unpublished observations). Here we show that engagement of ICAM-3 on monocytes and PMNs by specific immobilized mAbs induces secretion of chemokines and cellular spreading. We acknowledge that engagement by mAbs does not absolutely mimic responses induced by engagement by natural ligands, either quantitatively or qualitatively. Nevertheless, this strategy has been useful in defining the signaling potential of adhesion molecules and for identifying structural features that contribute to this function (22, 27, 30, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51). Our experiments using this approach indicate that ICAM-3 can transmit outside-in signals in monocytes and PMNs and suggest that it serves as a juxtacrine ligand (2, 52) when they interact with other leukocytes.

Immobilized Abs against ICAM-3 triggered secretion of MIP-1{alpha}, IL-8, and MCP-1 by monocytes (text and Figs. 1–5GoGoGoGoGo), cells known to produce and release chemokines in an adhesion-dependent fashion (18). We also showed that engagement of ICAM-3 on freshly isolated PMNs induces IL-8 secretion (Fig. 6Go). Synthesis and secretion of chemokines is a recently identified activation response of PMNs, which previously were thought to be incapable of new synthesis of inflammatory proteins (53). In contrast to this result, ICAM-3 was reported to be an inhibitor of PMN activation when adhesion to endothelial cells was assayed as the functional response (54). While a possible explanation for the latter observation is that ICAM-3 induces "negative" signaling (55, 56) of adhesion in PMNs, in other experiments we found that some of the same Abs that trigger chemokine release (Table IGo; Fig. 6Go) also induce PMN aggregation mediated by ß2 integrin activation (M. Feldhaus, J. Kessel et al., manuscript in preparation). Thus, our findings are consistent with ICAM-3 as a positive modulator of myeloid leukocyte function rather than as an inhibitor.

The Abs that most potently induced chemokine secretion by human monocytes and PMNs are directed against epitopes in the first N-terminal extracellular domain (domain 1) of ICAM-3 (6, 16) (Table IGo). A domain 1 Ab also directly triggered spreading of monocytes (Fig. 9Go). Domains 1 and 2 of ICAM-3 are involved in its recognition by {alpha}L2 integrin (5, 16, 20, 57). Thus, binding of the {alpha}L2 integrin to this region on ICAM-3 may trigger outside-in signaling and chemokine secretion during PMN and monocyte aggregation or in other leukocyte-leukocyte interactions involving these cells. Lymphocytes are also activated by Abs directed against domain 1 of ICAM-3 (20, 22, 40, 41, 51, 58, 59), supporting the possibility that this region of the molecule is important in signaling. The variable potency of Abs that bind to epitopes in domain 1 as triggers for chemokine secretion by monocytes (Table IGo) indicates that specific structural features are involved in outside-in signaling via ICAM-3. While it is possible that differences in affinity of the Abs accounted for their differences in potency as triggers, this seems unlikely under the conditions of our experiments, since there was equivalent binding of radiolabeled monocytes to the immobilized mAb (see Results).

ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 are reported to have outside-in signaling properties under some conditions (60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65). We found that engagement of ICAM-3 by triggering mAb induced chemokine secretion by monocytes whereas isotype-matched Abs against ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 did not stimulate secretion greater than that by cells incubated with immobilized control IgG (Fig. 4Go). While one potential explanation for our findings is that ICAM-3 is more effective as an outside-in signaling molecule than are the other two family members, no conclusions can be drawn on this point because of the variable potency of the anti-ICAM-3 Abs and the small number of Abs against ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 that we examined (Table IGo). Alternatively, a second explanation is that the pattern is due to the relative densities of ICAM-3 vs ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 on the surface of monocytes, where ICAM-3 is more highly represented (see Results). However, we also found that engagement of PECAM-1, another IgG superfamily member that mediates outside-in signaling under some conditions (27, 28, 47), did not induce MIP-1{alpha} or IL-8 secretion. The binding of the Abs against ICAM-3 and PECAM-1 were similar by flow cytometry, suggesting that relative surface density is not the only critical variable.

The cytoplasmic pathways that mediate outside-in signaling of chemokine expression when ICAM-3 is engaged on myeloid leukocytes are not yet defined. As previously noted (see Results), many observations indicate that intracellular signals generated by cellular spreading and/or cytoskeletal reorganization are important in the expression of chemokines and other gene products under certain conditions. In addition, Abs against domain 1 of ICAM-3 trigger both cell spreading and cytokine and chemokine secretion in other leukocyte types; the latter events are dependent on specific regions of the cytoplasmic tail of ICAM-3, consistent with outside-in signaling (51). Thus, spreading and chemokine expression could be mechanistically linked in a sequential or amplifying fashion when ICAM-3 is engaged. We found, however, that cytochalasin D did not block chemokine secretion induced by engagement of ICAM-3 on monocytes even though it inhibited cellular spreading in parallel. This indicates that reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton (38, 66), and molecular events resulting from changes in shape secondary to the spreading response (33, 34), are not required for chemokine expression when ICAM-3 is engaged on this cell type, suggesting divergence of the intracellular pathways leading from the cytoplasmic tail to the two effector responses. In myeloid leukocytes, outside-in signaling of chemokine secretion via ICAM-3 may involve phosphorylation of serine residues in the cytoplasmic tail (51) followed by phosphorylation of intracellular proteins on tyrosine. Preliminary experiments indicate that tyrosine kinase inhibitors reduce chemokine secretion when ICAM-3 is engaged on freshly isolated human monocytes (J. Kessel et al., unpublished observations). Tyrosine kinase pathways also mediate signaling in lymphocytic cells when ICAM-3 is engaged (44). This likely occurs by direct or indirect interaction of ICAM-3 with intracellular "nonreceptor" tyrosine kinases, causing them to phosphorylate downstream targets since tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic tail of ICAM-3 on activated leukocytes were not phosphorylated in our earlier studies (51), although others have reported a different result (67).

Our experiments demonstrated costimulation of chemokine secretion when ICAM-3 and Fc receptors on monocytes were engaged (Fig. 7Go, 8Go). Human monocytes constitutively express Fc{gamma}RI (CD64) and Fc{gamma}RII (CD32) (31, 68, 69, 70). Human Fc{gamma}RI recognizes murine IgG2a, the isotype of triggering mAb 5.1, and Fc{gamma}RII recognizes murine IgG1, the isotype of triggering mAb 8.1 (Table IGo) (reviewed in 31 . It has been reported previously that engagement of Fc{gamma}RI by Ig induces IL-8 release by monocytes (32). We confirmed this observation but also found that irrelevant IgG2a and "binding" anti-ICAM-3 mAb of this class did not induce the same magnitude of IL-8 or MIP-1{alpha} secretion as did mAb 5.1 (see Results, Table IGo, and Fig. 5Go). This indicates that activation through Fc{gamma}RI by the Fc portion of mAb 5.1 was not the exclusive mechanism of outside-in signaling of chemokine secretion induced by this Ab and that engagement of ICAM-3 was required for the full response. In a second series of experiments, we found that coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc{gamma}RII is required for triggering of maximal chemokine secretion by mAb 8.1 (Figs. 7Go and 8Go). Together, the experiments indicate that coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc receptors amplifies outside-in signaling and the secretion of MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8 by monocytes. Similarly, maximal and most rapid monocyte spreading was induced by intact triggering Abs, although Fab and F(ab')2 fragments of mAb 8.1 also induced spreading, demonstrating direct signaling by engagement of ICAM-3 (Fig. 9Go).

The requirement for coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc receptors for maximal chemokine secretion and rapid spreading suggests that intracellular signaling pathways linked to these surface structures converge and are integrated (2, 18). Cytoplasmic domains in the Fc{gamma}RI and Fc{gamma}RII molecular complexes contain Ag receptor activation motifs (ARAMs), also termed immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs, which associate with Src protein tyrosine kinases (71, 72). A variety of cell surface molecules that mediate outside-in signaling bear these cytoplasmic sequences (56, 73). The cytoplasmic domain of ICAM-3 does not contain consensus ARAM motifs (J. Kessel and E. Trayer, unpublished observations). However, as noted above, preliminary experiments indicate that ICAM-3 on monocytes is linked to tyrosine kinase-dependent signaling; this transduction pathway may converge on pathways linked to ARAM-bearing Fc domains.

Because Fc receptors recognize monomeric and/or aggregated human IgG as well as murine IgG (31, 32, 71), coengagement of these structures and ICAM-3 on human monocytes or PMNs may be important in syndromes of pathologic inflammation of the lungs, kidneys, or other organs in which immune complexes or Ig are deposited (74, 75, 76) and in which leukocyte-leukocyte interactions involving activated ß2 integrins and ICAM family members occur. Our experiments suggest that under these circumstances triggering of synthesis and secretion of chemokines, including MIP-1{alpha} and IL-8, which can further amplify inflammation by recruiting additional leukocytes (reviewed in Refs. 76 and 77), may be critical consequences of the signaling. In contrast, chemokine secretion is reduced or absent when coengagement of ICAM-3 and Fc receptors does not occur (Figs. 7Go and 8Go), suggesting a control mechanism that limits proinflammatory signaling when they are individually ligated. These observations suggest that a major function of ICAM-3 may be as a costimulatory ligand. In T lymphocytes and APCs, ICAM-3 has costimulatory functions (22, 40, 78). Transfection of ICAM-3 into deficient Jurkat T lymphoblastoid cells complements a defect in IL-2 release when the TCR is engaged, documenting a costimulatory role (51). Furthermore, we have found that engagement of ICAM-3 amplifies monocyte responses when they are activated through plasma membrane signaling receptors (A. S. Weyrich, S. Davies, et al., unpublished observations). Such cooperative actions involving surface molecules appear to be key events in signal integration and in juxtacrine signaling systems in leukocytes and in a variety of other cell types (2, 18).
