Abstract:
Microglial cells isolated from newborn rat brain displayed a baseline immunoreactivity for intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) after 10-20 days in culture. ICAM-1 immunoreactivity was enhanced in a time-dependent fashion by exposing the microglial cells to recombinant rat gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN; 100 U/ml) or tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha; 1000 U/ml). We conclude that rat brain macrophages/microglial cells can be induced by gamma-IFN and TNF-alpha to express ICAM-1. This may be relevant in the interaction of microglial cells with other brain cells during inflammation of the central nervous system.
