HEMOSTASIS, THROMBOSIS, AND VASCULAR BIOLOGY
Heterogeneity of endothelial junctions is reflected by
differential expression and specific subcellular localization of the
three JAM family members

Endothelial cells are linked to each other through intercellular
junctional complexes that regulate the barrier and fence function of
the vascular wall. The nature of these intercellular contacts varies
with the need for permeability: For example, in brain the impervious
blood-brain barrier is maintained by "tight" contacts between
endothelial cells. By contrast, in high endothelial venules (HEVs),
where lymphocytes continuously exit the bloodstream, the contacts are
generally leaky. The precise molecular components that define the type
of junction remain to be characterized. An immunoglobulin superfamily
molecule named JAM-2, specifically expressed in lymphatic endothelial
cells and HEVs, was recently identified. JAM-3 was cloned and
characterized in the current study, and JAM-1, -2, and -3 were shown to
form a novel protein family belonging to the larger cortical
thymocyte Xenopus (CTX) molecular family.
Using antibodies specific for each of the 3 family members,
their specific participation in different types of cell-cell contact in
vivo and their specific and differential localization in lateral
contacts or tight junctions were demonstrated. Furthermore, it was
shown that JAM-1 and JAM-2 differentially regulate paracellular
permeability, suggesting that the presence of JAM-1, -2, or -3 in
vascular junctions may play a role in regulating vascular function in vivo.
