title: [The role of Mac-1 and ICAM-1 molecules in adhesion of cells on fibronogen and its degradation products].
abstract: Monocytic cell adhesion to immobilized fibrinogen and fibrinogen degradation products, and involvement of integrins Mac-1 and immunoglobulin-like ICAM-1 adhesion molecules in these processes were investigated. Fibrinogen cleavage with plasmin down-regulated adhesion of cells with predominant Mac-1 expression; in contrast, the attachment of ICAM-1-expressing was up-regulated. By means of function-blocking anti-Mac-1 and anti-ICAM-1 antibodies, and immobilization of known fibrinogen degradation products, it was shown that Mac-1 molecules mediated cell adhesion predominantly to fibrinogen, and its early degradation products, fragments X and Y, while ICAM-1 participated in cell attachment to X- and Y-fragments, rather than to intact fibrinogen or late degradation products, fragments D and E.
