Junctional Adhesion Molecule-A (JAM-A) is a transmembrane adhesive protein expressed at endothelial junctions and in leukocytes. Here we report that JAM-A is required for the correct infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) into an inflamed peritoneum or in the heart upon ischemia-reperfusion injury. The defect was not observed in mice with an endothelium-restricted deficiency of the protein but was still detectable in mice transplanted with bone marrow from JAM-A(-/-) donors. Microscopic examination of mesenteric and heart microvasculature of JAM-A(-/-) mice showed high numbers of PMN adherent on the endothelium or entrapped between endothelial cells and the basement membrane. In vitro, in the absence of JAM-A, PMN adhered more efficiently to endothelial cells and basement membrane proteins, and their polarized movement was strongly reduced. This paper describes a nonredundant role of JAM-A in controlling PMN diapedesis through the vessel wall.
