Characterization of adhesion receptors on cultured microvascular endothelial cells derived from the retroorbital connective tissue of patients with Grave's ophthalmopathy.

Abstract excerpt

T lymphocytes have been demonstrated recently to play an important role in the pathogenesis and propagation of Graves' ophthalmopathy (GO). Recruitment of T cells to the retroorbital tissue in GO involves the activation of certain adhesion molecules both in the vascular endothelium and in the ext...
