| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Adhesion of circulating leukocytes to the endothelial cells (ECs) and subsequent trans-endothelial migration are important in the development of atherosclerosis. This process is predominantly mediated by adhesion molecules, which are expressed on ECs and leukocytes. The culprit coronary artery and atherosclerotic plaque from patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) underwent the thrombus-aspiration therapy contained abundant PSGL-1+CD4+T cells. These PSGL-1+CD4+T cells strongly bound to both P-selectin and E-selectin, and induced EC apoptosis.
Furthermore, in apolipoprotein E (ApoE) deficient mice, the advanced atherosclerosis with many activated IFNγ+CD4 T cells, IL17+CD4 T cells, and apoptosis were observed. In contrast, these features were inhibited in PSGL-1/ApoE double deficient mice, contributing more stabilized morphologic features. We concluded that PSGL-1 expressing CD4+T cells participate directly in the development of atherosclerosis and plaque instability in ACS.
