Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 and progression of percent emphysema: the MESA Lung Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM) 1 binds neutrophils and facilitates their transmigration into the lung; E-selectin facilitates leukocyte rolling. As neutrophils contribute to tissue destruction in emphysema and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, we hypothesized that soluble ICAM-1 (sICAM-1) and E-selectin (sE-selectin) would be associated with longitudinal progression of emphysema and lung function decline.

Methods

The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) enrolled participants 45-84 years old without clinical cardiovascular disease in 2000-02. The MESA Lung Study assessed percent emphysema (<-950 Hounsfield units) on cardiac (2000-07) and full-lung CT scans (2010-12), and spirometry was assessed twice over five years. sICAM-1 and sE-selectin were measured at baseline. Mixed-effect models adjusted for demographics, anthropometry, smoking, C-reactive protein, sphingomyelin and scanner factors.

Results

Among 1865 MESA Lung participants with measurement of sICAM-1 and percent emphysema the mean log-sICAM-1 was 5.5 ± 0.3 ng/mL and percent emphysema increased 0.73 percentage points (95% CI: 0.34, 1.12; P < 0.001) over ten years. A one SD increase in sICAM-1 was associated with an accelerated increase in percent emphysema of 0.23 percentage points over ten years (95% CI: 0.06, 0.39; P = 0.007). No significant association was found for sE-selectin, or between any adhesion molecule and lung function.

Conclusions

Higher levels of sICAM-1 were independently associated with progression of percent emphysema in a general population sample.

Project description:Simple Summary Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) is a protein produced by cells in blood vessel walls, as well as many other cell types. It localizes to the surface of these cells to allow them to communicate with adjacent cells. The production of ICAM-1 is induced by inflammation, such as occurs during infection, when one of its main functions is to direct white blood cells to the site of the infection. However, in autoimmune diseases and certain types of infection, ICAM-1 can be involved in directing cells to damage healthy tissue. ICAM-1 can also promote or protect against cancer, depending on the type of cancer and the cell populations that are producing it. In this review article, the ICAM1 gene and ICAM-1 protein are introduced, and their regulation is summarized. The roles of ICAM-1 in the immune system and a spectrum of diseases, as well as therapeutics that target ICAM-1, are discussed. Abstract Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) is a transmembrane protein in the immunoglobulin superfamily expressed on the surface of multiple cell populations and upregulated by inflammatory stimuli. It mediates cellular adhesive interactions by binding to the β2 integrins macrophage antigen 1 and leukocyte function-associated antigen 1, as well as other ligands. It has important roles in the immune system, including in leukocyte adhesion to the endothelium and transendothelial migration, and at the immunological synapse formed between lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells. ICAM-1 has also been implicated in the pathophysiology of diverse diseases from cardiovascular diseases to autoimmune disorders, certain infections, and cancer. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the structure and regulation of the ICAM1 gene and the ICAM-1 protein. We discuss the roles of ICAM-1 in the normal immune system and a selection of diseases to highlight the breadth and often double-edged nature of its functions. Finally, we discuss current therapeutics and opportunities for advancements.

Project description:BackgroundExperimental studies suggested that intercellular adhesion molecule 4 (ICAM-4) might be implicated in ischemic stroke, but the population-based evidence on the relationship between ICAM-4 and ischemic stroke were limited. Herein, we performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to investigate the associations of genetically determined plasma ICAM-4 with the risks of ischemic stroke and its subtypes.MethodsA total of 11 single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with ICAM-4 were selected as instrumental variables based on the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) with 3,301 European individuals. Summary-level data about ischemic stroke and its subtypes were obtained from the Multi-ancestry GWAS launched by the International Stroke Genetics Consortium. We used the inverse-variance weighted method followed by a series of sensitivity analyses to evaluate the associations of genetically determined ICAM-4 with the risks of ischemic stroke and its subtypes.ResultsGenetically determined higher ICAM-4 levels were significantly associated with increased risks of ischemic stroke (in the IVW method fitted to multiplicative random effects model: odds ratio [OR] per standard deviation [SD] increase, 1.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.07; P = 0.006; in the IVW analysis with fixed effects model: OR per SD increase, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01-1.07; P = 0.003) and cardioembolic stroke (in multiplicative random effects model: OR per SD increase, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.02-1.14; P = 0.004; in fixed effects model: OR per SD increase, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.03-1.13; P = 0.003). There was no association of ICAM-4 with the risks of large artery stroke and small vessel stroke. MR-Egger regression showed no directional pleiotropy for all associations, and the sensitivity analyses with different MR methods further confirmed these findings.ConclusionsWe found positive associations of genetically determined plasma ICAM-4 with the risks of ischemic stroke and cardioembolic stroke. Future studies are needed to explore the detailed mechanism and investigate the targeting effect of ICAM-4 on ischemic stroke.

Project description:BackgroundPulmonary endothelial damage has been shown to precede the development of emphysema in animals, and vascular changes in humans have been observed in COPD and emphysema.Research questionIs intraparenchymal vascular pruning associated with longitudinal progression of emphysema on CT imaging or decline in lung function over 5 years?Study design and methodsThe Genetic Epidemiology of COPD Study enrolled ever smokers with and without COPD from 2008 through 2011. The percentage of emphysema-like lung, or "percent emphysema," was assessed at baseline and after 5 years on noncontrast CT imaging as the percentage of lung voxels < -950 Hounsfield units. An automated CT imaging-based tool assessed and classified intrapulmonary arteries and veins. Spirometry measures are postbronchodilator. Pulmonary arterial pruning was defined as a lower ratio of small artery volume (< 5 mm2 cross-sectional area) to total lung artery volume. Mixed linear models included demographics, anthropomorphics, smoking, and COPD, with emphysema models also adjusting for CT imaging scanner and lung function models adjusting for clinical center and baseline percent emphysema.ResultsAt baseline, the 4,227 participants were 60 ± 9 years of age, 50% were women, 28% were Black, 47% were current smokers, and 41% had COPD. Median percent emphysema was 2.1 (interquartile range, 0.6-6.3) and progressed 0.24 percentage points/y (95% CI, 0.22-0.26 percentage points/y) over 5.6 years. Mean FEV1 to FVC ratio was 68.5 ± 14.2% and declined 0.26%/y (95% CI, -0.30 to -0.23%/y). Greater pulmonary arterial pruning was associated with more rapid progression of percent emphysema (0.11 percentage points/y per 1-SD increase in arterial pruning; 95% CI, 0.09-0.16 percentage points/y), including after adjusting for baseline percent emphysema and FEV1. Arterial pruning also was associated with a faster decline in FEV1 to FVC ratio (-0.04%/y per 1-SD increase in arterial pruning; 95% CI, -0.008 to -0.001%/y).InterpretationPulmonary arterial pruning was associated with faster progression of percent emphysema and more rapid decline in FEV1 to FVC ratio over 5 years in ever smokers, suggesting that pulmonary vascular differences may be relevant in disease progression.Trial registryClinicalTrials.gov; No.: NCT00608764; URL: www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:BackgroundPulmonary emphysema is divided into 3 major subtypes at autopsy: centrilobular, paraseptal, and panlobular emphysema. These subtypes can be defined by visual assessment on computed tomography (CT); however, clinical characteristics of emphysema subtypes on CT are not well defined. We developed a reliable approach to visual assessment of emphysema subtypes on CT and examined if emphysema subtypes have distinct characteristics.MethodsThe Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis COPD Study recruited smokers with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and controls ages 50-79 years with ≥ 10 pack-years. Participants underwent CT following a standardized protocol. Definitions of centrilobular, paraseptal, and panlobular emphysema were obtained by literature review. Six-minute walk distance and pulmonary function were performed following guidelines.ResultsTwenty-seven percent of 318 smokers had emphysema on CT. Interrater reliability of emphysema subtype was substantial (K: 0.70). Compared with participants without emphysema, individuals with centrilobular or panlobular emphysema had greater dyspnea, reduced walk distance, greater hyperinflation, and lower diffusing capacity. In contrast, individuals with paraseptal emphysema were similar to controls, except for male predominance. Centrilobular, but not panlobular or paraseptal, emphysema was associated with greater smoking history (+21 pack-years P <.001). Panlobular, but not other types of emphysema, was associated with reduced body mass index (-5 kg/m(2); P = .01). Other than for dyspnea, these findings were independent of the forced expiratory volume in 1 second. Seventeen percent of smokers without COPD on spirometry had emphysema, which was independently associated with reduced walk distance.ConclusionsEmphysema subtypes on CT are common in smokers with and without COPD. Centrilobular and panlobular emphysema, but not paraseptal emphysema, have considerable symptomatic and physiological consequences.
