The role of chemokines and extracellular matrix components in the migration of T lymphocytes into three‐dimensional substrata

The role of chemokines and their interactions with extracellular matrix components (ECM) or the capacity of T cells to migrate into and accumulate within three‐dimensional (3D) collagen type 1 substrata was studied. We examined the influence of chemokines and fibronectin on the infiltration properties of non‐infiltrative (do not migrate into 3D substrata) and spontaneously infiltrative (migrate into 3D substrata) T‐cell lines. Infiltrative and non‐infiltrative T‐acute lymphocytic leukaemic cell lines exhibited no consistent differences with respect to the expression of various chemokine receptors or β1‐integrins. Chemokines presented inside the collagen increased the depth of migration of infiltrative T‐cell lines, but did not render non‐infiltrative T‐cell lines infiltrative, although they augmented the attachment of non‐infiltrative T‐cell lines to the upper surface of the collagen. The presence of fibronectin inside the collagen did not render non‐infiltrative T‐cell lines infiltrative, but markedly augmented the migration of ‘infiltrative’ T‐cell lines into collagen. Both infiltrative and non‐infiltrative T‐cell lines showed migratory responses to chemokines in Boyden assays (migration detected on 2D substrata). These results indicate that the process of T‐cell infiltration/migration into 3D substrata depends on a tissue penetration mechanism distinguishable from migration on 2D substrata and that the basic capacity of T cells to infiltrate is independent of chemokines and ECM components applied as attractants.
