摘要:: We compared temporal changes in isometric tension in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells inoculated on a polymerized collagen membrane with changes in cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion derived by a mathematical model of transendothelial cell resistance. Thrombin and histamine disrupt barrier function by targeting a greater loss in cell-cell adhesion, which preceded losses in overall transendothelial resistance. There were minor losses in cell-matrix adhesion, which was temporally slower than the decline in the overall transendothelial resistance. In contrast, thrombin and histamine restored barrier function by initiating a restoration of cell-matrix adhesion, which occurred before an increase in overall transendothelial resistance. Thrombin mediated a second and slower decline in cell-cell adhesion, which was not observed in histamine-treated cells. This decline in cell-cell adhesion temporally correlated with expressed maximal levels of tension development, suggesting that actin-myosin contraction directly strains cell-cell adhesion sites. Pretreatment of cells with ML-7 mediated more rapid recovery of cell-cell adhesion and had no effect on cell-matrix adhesion. Taken together, expression of actin-myosin contraction affects the restoration of barrier function by straining cell-cell adhesion sites.
