Abstract: Met-RANTES is a modified version of the chemokine RANTES, which has an additional amino acid at the amino terminus. To compare Met-RANTES with the native protein as well as with another antagonist, AOP­ RANTES, we have solved the structure of Met-RANTES at 1.6 A by X-ray crystallography and investigated the dimerization of all three proteins by fluorescence anisotropy. The dimerization of AOP-RANTES shows an altered aggregation profile. The delineation of slight differences in binding sulfate anions by Met- and AOP­ RANTES might be linked to specific yet different interactions betwee

Abstract Introduction: Bone disease in patients with myeloma is the devastating complication. RANTES (CCR chemokine, Regulated upon Activation,Normal T Cell Expressed and Secreted) is involved in the bone remodeling that is made by coupled functions of osteoclasts and osteoblasts. Osteoclasts represent the RANTES receptor CCR1 and product RANTES. Osteoblasts express CCR1,3,4,5, and also product RANTES. Osteoblasts chemotaxicaly move to osteoclasts to repair the absorbed bone lesions (Shozo Yano et al., Endocrinology Vol.145, No.5, 2324–2335). The bone pathophysiology of multiple myeloma is the

Abstract The chemokine RANTES induces a unique biphasic cytoplasmic Ca2+ signal in T cells. The first phase of this signal, similar to that of other chemokines, is G-protein mediated and chemotaxis associated. The second phase of this signal, unique to RANTES and evident at concentrations greater than 100 nM, is tyrosine kinase linked and results in a spectrum of responses similar to those seen with antigenic stimulation of T cells. We show here that certain Jurkat T cells responded to RANTES solely through this latter pathway. A direct correlation between the RANTES-induced second phase respo

Abstract:
Abstract Among the many known chemotactic factors for eosinophils, the proinflammatory chemokine RANTES is particularly important, because it is potently and selectively chemotactic for eosinophils. Throughout the process of the migration of eosinophils from the blood vessels into the nasal cavity, eosinophil functions are assumed to be regulated by surface adhesion molecules. Conversely, the messages conferred by the eosinophils to the endothelial and epithelial cells are also of great interest. In the present study, we showed that eosinophil adhesion to human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) i

The amplification of anti-infective immunity against a wide spectrum of acute and chronic infections caused by various pathogens is mediated by RANTES/CCL5. This chemokine controls infections caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoans. In addition, RANTES/CCL5 exhibits anti-cancer effects by increasing NK-cell activity and targeting tumors. RANTES/CCL5 acts by amplifying antigen-specific immunity on mucosal surfaces, programmed T-cell responses, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), B-cell activation, and antibody production.

ABSTRACT The interaction of the CC-chemokine RANTES with its cell surface receptors transduces multiple intracellular signals: low concentrations of RANTES (1 to 10 nM) stimulate G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) activity, and higher concentrations (1 μM) activate a phosphotyrosine kinase (PTK)-dependent pathway. Here, we show that the higher RANTES concentrations induce rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins. Several src-family kinases (Fyn, Hck, Src) are activated, as is the focal adhesion kinase p125 FAK and, eventually, members of the p44/p42 mitogen-activated protein kinase (

Abstract The chemokine RANTES is a potent chemoattractant for eosinophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes, and has been detected recently in the epithelium of human airways mucosa. We have studied, therefore, the expression of RANTES mRNA and protein in the human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B. Using Northern blot analysis, RANTES mRNA was not detectable in unstimulated BEAS-2B cells. Incubation of cells with TNF-alpha or IFN-gamma induced the expression of RANTES mRNA and protein within 16 h. The combination of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma displayed a marked synergism in inducing RANTES expres

Abstract Selective eosinophil recruitment occurs after experimental Ag challenge and in tissue sites of allergic diseases. The mechanisms of selective eosinophil migration are still unknown. In our study, we examined the ability of chemokines to induce transendothelial migration (TEM) of eosinophils in vitro. Among the chemokines tested, only RANTES induced eosinophil TEM. RANTES failed to induce TEM of neutrophils. Interestingly, IL-8 induced neutrophil TEM and had no effect on eosinophil TEM. RANTES-induced TEM was concentration-dependent and was inhibited by Abs directed against the beta 2

Abstract We have used a cDNA library enriched for T cell-specific sequences to isolate genes expressed by T cells but not by other cell types. We report here one such gene, designated RANTES, which encodes a novel T cell-specific molecule. The RANTES gene product is predicted to be 10 kDa and, after cleavage of the signal peptide, approximately 8 kDa. Of the 68 residues, 4 are cysteines, and there are no sites for N-linked glycosylation. RANTES is expressed by cultured T cell lines that are Ag specific and growth factor dependent. RANTES expression is inducible in PBL by Ag or mitogen. In CTL,

High affinity receptors for RANTES have been identified on a human monocytic leukemia cell line THP-1, which responded to RANTES in chemotaxis and calcium mobilization assays. Steady-state binding data analyses revealed approximately 700 binding sites/cell on THP-1 cells with a Kd value of 400 pM, comparable to that expressed on human peripheral blood monocytes.
