Figure 5
Spreading of LAD-III NK cells on ICAM-1 is intact, whereas shear-resistant adhesion and migration are impaired. (A) The figure shows the LFA-1–dependent adhesion under shear force. NK cells derived either from a healthy control (□) or from the LAD-III patient (■) were settled for 1 minute on ICAM-1-Fc–coated surfaces (350 sites/μm2) and were then subjected to increasing shear forces. Figure shows 1 representative experiment of 3 performed. Data are mean ± SD. Error bars (SD) are derived from triplicates. *P < .05. (B) Frequency histograms of the speed of cell migration on ICAM-1–coated slides measured at 5-second intervals, from healthy control NK cells or from the LAD-III patient NK cells, which had either been stimulated with 5mM MgCl2 or left untreated. The total number of time points analyzed for each experimental condition is indicated. (C) The average migration speeds of healthy control NK cells, LAD-III patient NK cells, or Mg2+ stimulated LAD-III patient NK cells on ICAM-1. Data are mean ± SEM, derived from 3 separate experiments. **P < .005. NS indicates not significant. (D) Bright-field and IRM images of NK cell surface attachment and spreading on ICAM-1 from a healthy control (left) or from the LAD-III patient (right). Scale bar represents 10 μm. (E) Quantification of the area of surface attachment for n > 60 cells. Data are mean ± SEM. **P < .005.
