Although initially considered merely “scavenger cells” that participate in immunologic
responses only after B and T lymphocytes have performed their biological tasks, more recent …

Recent investigations have reanimated the view that there exists a possible link between
atherosclerosis and inflammation. Adhesion of monocytes as well as T lymphocytes to the …

The tissues of the central nervous system are effectively shielded from the blood circulation
by specialized vessels that are impermeable not only to cells, but also to most …
