The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) contributes to the inflammatory response in many acute and chronic diseases. In this context, RAGE has been identified as a ligand for the beta(2)-integrin Mac-1 under static in vitro conditions. Because intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 also binds beta(2)-integrins, we studied RAGE(-/-), Icam1(-/-), and RAGE(-/-) Icam1(-/-) mice to define the relative contribution of each ligand for leukocyte adhesion in vivo. We show that trauma-induced leukocyte adhesion in cremaster muscle venules is strongly dependent on RAGE and ICAM-1 acting together in an overlapping fashion. Additional in vivo experiments in chimeric mice lacking endothelium-expressed RAGE and ICAM-1 located the adhesion defect to the endothelial compartment. Using micro-flow chambers coated with P-selectin, CXCL1, and soluble RAGE (sRAGE) demonstrated that sRAGE supports leukocyte adhesion under flow conditions in a Mac-1 but not LFA-1-dependent fashion. A static adhesion assay revealed that wild-type and RAGE(-/-) neutrophil adhesion and spreading were similar on immobilized sRAGE or fibrinogen. These observations indicate a crucial role of endothelium-expressed RAGE as Mac-1 ligand and uncover RAGE and ICAM-1 as a new set of functionally linked adhesion molecules, which closely cooperate in mediating leukocyte adhesion during the acute trauma-induced inflammatory response in vivo.
