Abstract As many aspects of hereditary angioedema (HAE) due to C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) deficiency (C1-INH-HAE) cannot be explained with elevated bradykinin level alone, it has recently become clear that other factors also play an important role in the pathogenesis. One of these factors could be elevated neutrophil granulocyte (NG) counts, which are associated with increased NG activation in C1-INH-HAE patients; however, their origin has not been elucidated so far. Here, we aimed to investigate whether the excess of NGs is due to disturbed maturation, biased circulating/marginated pool equilibrium or decreased elimination. We enrolled 20 attack-free C1-INH-HAE patients together with 21 healthy controls and collected blood samples. We compared cell surface maturation markers, adhesion molecules, cytokine receptors, and Ca2+-mobilization of NG by flow cytometry, activation markers by ELISA, and NG/endothelial cell adhesion by automated pipetting system. Cell-surface markers showed normal maturation of NGs in C1-INH-HAE patients. Adhesion of NGs to endothelial cells pretreated with lipopolysaccharide or phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate was significantly weaker in samples from C1-INH-HAE patients and bradykinin had no effect on the adhesion. NGs from C1-INH-HAE patients were in an activated state when assessed by soluble activation markers without any stimulation. Our data support that the maturation of NGs in C1-INH-HAE patients is normal, whereas adhesion properties of patient-derived NGs to the endothelium are reduced compared to those from healthy controls, indicating a bias between the circulating and marginated pools of NGs in patients. Bradykinin may not be responsible for reduced adhesion properties of NGs. |
