During inflammation, E-selectin expressed on cytokine-activated endothelial cells mediates leukocyte rolling under flow. E-selectin undergoes endocytosis and may associate with lipid rafts. We asked whether distribution of E-selectin in membrane domains affects its functions. E-selectin was internalized in transfected CHO cells or cytokine-activated human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Confocal microscopy demonstrated colocalization of E-selectin with alpha-adaptin, a clathrin-associated protein. Deleting the cytoplasmic domain of E-selectin or disrupting clathrin-coated pits with hypertonic medium blocked internalization of E-selectin, reduced colocalization of E-selectin with alpha-adaptin, and inhibited E-selectin-mediated neutrophil rolling under flow. Unlike CHO cells, HUVECs expressed a small percentage of E-selectin in lipid rafts. Even fewer neutrophils rolled on E-selectin in HUVECs treated with hypertonic medium and with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin, which disrupts lipid rafts. These data demonstrate that E-selectin clusters in both clathrin-coated pits and lipid rafts of endothelial cells but is internalized in clathrin-coated pits. Distribution in both domains markedly enhances E-selectin's ability to mediate leukocyte rolling under flow.
