Hydrogen peroxide regulates endothelial surface N-glycoforms to control inflammatory monocyte rolling and adhesion.

ABSTRACT: Monocyte extravasation through the endothelial layer is a hallmark of atherosclerotic plaque development and is mediated by heavily N-glycosylated surface adhesion molecules, such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1). N-glycosylation is a key co- and post-translational modification that adds sugar molecules to Asparagine residues of surface and secreted proteins. While it has been suggested that surface and secreted proteins will not be expressed unless fully processed to a complex N-glycoform, emerging data has suggested that multiple N-glycoforms can exist on the cell surface. Previous data from our lab has shown that endothelial inflammation produces multiple N-glycoforms of ICAM-1, and that a hypoglycosylated, or high-mannose (HM), form of ICAM-1 enhances adhesion of pro-infla
