The vasoocclusive crisis is the major clinical feature of sickle
cell anemia, which is believed to be initiated or sustained by sickle
(SS) red blood cell (RBC) adhesion to the vascular wall. SS RBCs, but
not unaffected (AA) RBCs, adhere avidly to multiple components of the
vascular wall, including laminin. Here we report a novel role for
epinephrine and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the
regulation of human SS RBC adhesiveness via the laminin receptor, basal
cell adhesion molecule/Lutheran (BCAM/Lu). Our data demonstrate that
peripheral SS RBCs contain greater than 4-fold more cAMP than AA RBCs
under basal conditions. Forskolin or the stress mediator epinephrine
further elevates cAMP in SS RBCs and increases adhesion of SS RBCs to
laminin in a protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent manner, with the
low-density population being the most responsive.
Epinephrine-stimulated adhesion to laminin, mediated primarily via the
2-adrenergic receptor, occurred in SS RBC samples from 46% of
patients and was blocked by recombinant, soluble BCAM/Lu, implicating
this receptor as a target of cAMP signaling. Thus, these studies
demonstrate a novel, rapid regulation of SS RBC adhesion by a
cAMP-dependent pathway and suggest that components of this pathway,
particularly PKA, the 2-adrenergic receptor, and BCAM/Lu, should be
further explored as potential therapeutic targets to inhibit SS
RBC adhesion.
