Expression of leucocyte adhesion molecules at the human blood‐brain barrier (BBB)

The expression of leucocyte adhesion molecules was studied on cerebral endothelia by immunocytochemistry. In peritumoral “normal” brain tissue we found low endothelial expression of 1CAMI, LFA3, CD44, and CD9, whereas VLA1 was present on vessels in high incidence and density. LFAl, CD2, and CR3 were found on intraluminal and parenchymal leucocytes, but were absent on brain vessels. In brain tumors and inflammatory brain lesions, we observed an up‐regulation of endothelial ICAM1 and LFA3 expression, whereas other adhesion molecules on endothelial cells remained unchanged.
