Fractalkine (CX3CL1) levels are increased in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with clinically isolated syndrome (CIS), as well as in the CSF and serum samples from patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). A higher percentage of circulating CD4(+) T-cells expressed its surface receptor (CX3CR1) and intracellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) in RRMS patients in comparison to healthy controls (HCs). The CX3CR1(+)ICAM-1(+)CD4(+) T-cells are enriched in the CSF of the RRMS patients. In vitro migration studies revealed that CD4(+) T-cells, which migrated toward a CX3CL1 gradient, expressed higher levels of ICAM-1 than non-migrating cells. CX3CL1 significantly increased IFN-gamma and TNF-alpha gene expression and IFN-gamma secretion by CD4(+) T-cells derived from the RRMS patients. CX3CL1 upregulated ICAM-1 expression on the surface of RRMS patient-derived but not HC-derived CD4(+) T-cells. Thus, CX3CL1 induces recruitment of CX3CR1(+)ICAM-1(+)CD4(+) T-cells into the central nervous system (CNS) during the early inflammatory response in MS. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
