A new approach to determining the rates of recruitment of circulating leukocytes into tissues: application to the measurement of leukocyte recruitment into atherosclerotic lesions.

Abstract excerpt

Recruitment of circulating monocytes into the artery wall is an important feature of early atherogenesis. In vitro studies have identified a number of adhesion molecules and chemokines that may control this process but very little work has been done to evaluate their relative importance in vivo, in part because there have been no methods available of sufficient sensitivity and reliability. This paper proposes a...
