ABSTRACT The Treponema pallidum membrane protein Tp47 induces immunocyte adherence to vascular cells and contributes to vascular inflammation. However, it is unclear whether microvesicles are functional inflammatory mediators between vascular cells and immunocytes. Microvesicles that were isolated from Tp47-treated THP-1 cells using differential centrifugation were subjected to adherence assays to determine the adhesion-promoting effect on human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) levels in Tp47-induced microvesicle (Tp47-microvesicle)-treated HUVECs were measured, and the related intracellular signaling pathways of Tp47-microvesicle-induced monocyte adhesion were investigated. Tp47-microvesicles promoted THP-1 cell adhesion to HUVECs (P |
