S100 proteins represent a new class of chemoattractants. Here we extend
earlier evidence for the proinflammatory properties of human S100A12.
A12 induced migration of monocytoid cells, with optimal activity at
10-10 M and potency of >10-9 M C5a.
Neutrophils were poorly responsive, and lymphocyte migration was not
affected. Actin polymerization in monocytoid cells was accompanied by a
sustained [Ca2+]i flux of a magnitude
comparable with C5a. A12 elicited a transient infiltration of
neutrophils (48 h) and more delayed recruitment of monocytes (824
h) in vivo. A12 (
70 nM) was present in synovial fluid (SF) from
rheumatoid arthritis patients, and synovium contained A12-positive
neutrophils in the sublining and interstitial region, often surrounding
the perivasculature but rarely in the synovial lining layer, although
some macrophages were positive. The A12 gene was transiently
up-regulated in monocytes by tumor necrosis factor
(6 h); induction
by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was sustained (1248 h). A12 may
contribute to leukocyte migration in chronic inflammatory
responses.
