The effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) on the expression and shedding of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was investigated on the hematopoietic cell lines K 562 and U 937 using flow cytometry, fluorescence microscopy and ELISA technique. At low concentration of 1 nM, PMA stimulated the expression of ICAM-1 on the cell surface about 4-fold within 24 h, whereas a short-term treatment with 100 nM PMA led to the shedding of 35% of ICAM-1 from the surface of K 562 cells. The release of surface ICAM-1 was found on single cells by fluorescence microscopy to be a uniform process proceeding within 15 min. The shedding of ICAM-1 correlated with elevated levels of sICAM-1 in the supernatants of cultured cells. Also on K 562 cells stimulated by TNF-alpha, a PMA-induced release of ICAM-1 was observed in addition to the known spontaneous shedding. In contrast to the results with K 562 cells, no PMA-induced shedding of ICAM-1 was found on U 937 cells. This indicates a cell-specific process for K 562 cells. The PMA-mediated release of ICAM-1 from K 562 cells suggests that the shedding process does not only occur in parallel to the surface expression of ICAM-1, but may be controlled by particular mechanisms of down-regulation.
