    BACKGROUND: MAdCAM-1 plays a central role in T-lymphocyte homing to the gut, but its role in chronic liver inflammation remains unknown. Therefore, this study measured MAdCAM-1 expression, regulation, and function in cultured murine hepatic endothelial cells. METHODS: Cultures of hepatic endothelial cells (HEC) were prepared from mice expressing a temperature-sensitive SV40 large T antigen (H-2Kb-tsA58) under the control of an IFN-gamma promoter. Time and dose dependent expression of MAdCAM-1 in response to TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta and IFN-gamma was studied by immunoblotting. Lymphocyte adhesion was studied using alpha 4 beta 7 integrin expressing lymphocytes (TK-1) +/- anti-MAdCAM-1 mAb. RESULTS: TNF-alpha induced MAdCAM-1 dose-and time-dependently with maximum expression at 20 ng/ml and at 48 hours. IL-1 beta also induced MAdCAM-1 to a lesser extent compared to TNF-alpha; IFN-gamma did not induce MAdCAM-1. TNF-alpha significantly increased lymphocyte-endothelial adhesion (P < 0.01), which was reversed by anti-MAdCAM-1 antibody. MAdCAM-1 expression was also reduced by N-acetylcysteine and by two NO donors (SperNO, DETANO) suggesting that hepatic endothelial MAdCAM-1 is oxidant and NO regulated. CONCLUSION: MAdCAM-1 is a major determinant of leukocyte recruitment in chronic inflammation and is expressed by HEC in response to IL-1 beta and TNF-alpha. This system may provide a useful model for studying inflammatory mechanisms in liver disease and help determine if controlled MAdCAM-1 expression might influence inflammation in liver disease.
