Background Adhesion receptors have important role in cellular invasiveness and L-selectin is a primary determinant in the binding of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells to several glycated proteins on endothelial cells. We investigated L-selectin expression on CLL cells and explored the mechanisms that lead to their shedding.Methods Surface and soluble L-selectin expression levels were studied by flow cytometry and immunoassay, respectively. Magnetically isolated B-cells from patients and controls were investigated for total and protein phosphatase-2A activities. Flow cytometry of permeabilized cells was utilized for the determination of phosphorylated mitogen-activated protein kinase (pp38MAPK) and surface tumor necrosis factor alpha-converting enzyme expression (TACE).Results In CLL patients elevated absolute lymphocyte cell counts, high soluble and low surface L-selectin expression were observed. Similarly, TACE surface expression was significantly lower on B-CLL cells compared to normal B-cells. Both total phosphatase and protein phosphatase-2A activities were also significantly lower in B-CLL cells compared to normal B-cells and we found a consequently higher level of pp38 MAPK in B-CLL cells. Based on in vitro experiments a MAPK inhibitor could attenuate the phosphatase inhibitor's effect on L-selectin shedding.Conclusions The lower phosphatase activity detectable in chronic lymphocytic leukemia, results in a downstream signaling cascade with subsequent reduction of surface L-selectin expression and this effect is mediated by enhanced phosphorylation of p38MAPK and an altered TACE expression.
