Abstract excerpt
Monocyte recruitment from the vasculature involves sequential engagement of multiple receptors, culminating in transendothelial migration and extravasation. Junctional adhesion molecule-C (JAM-C) is localized at endothelial intercellular junctions and plays a role in monocyte transmigration. Here, we show that blockade of JAM-B/-C interaction reduced monocyte numbers in the extravascular compartment through...
