To leave the blood, leucocytes marginate to the vessel wall. Granulocytes thereby form the
so‐called marginal pool. It is unclear to what extent such a second intravascular …

Background. The source of reactive oxygen species in the liver remains to be elucidated.
The present study was undertaken to determine whether polymorphonuclear neutrophils …

The ICAM-1/LFA-1 interaction in glomerular leukocytic accumulation in anti-GBM
glomerulonephritis. Recent studies of rat anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) …

We describe in this report the production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies
(mAb) to the rabbit homologues of CD4, CD5 and CD11a antigens, and their use for …

We investigated the contribution of neutrophils to prostaglandin (PG) F2α-induced luteolysis
and the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as potential mediators of neutrophil …

Background: Neutrophils may exacerbate intestinal inflammatory diseases through secretion
of proteolytic enzymes and reactive oxygen and nitrogen intermediates. Aims: To define the …

The vast mucosal interface separating external from internal compartments of the lung is
under the surveillance of a population of blood-borne, bone marrow-derived dendritic cells …

Background. Necrotic patches and hemorrhagic lesions develop in the renal tissue between
day 4 and day 5 after transplantation of fully allogeneic DA rat kidneys to LEW recipients …

The effects of hyaluronan on neutrophil-mediated cartilage degradation were studied in an
in vitro model. Rat peritoneal neutrophils were incubated for up to 18 h with the neutralized …

Four different combinations of monoclonal antibodies against rat ICAM-1, CD-11a, and CD-
18 were utilized to determine the relative importance of LFA-1, Mac-1, and ICAM-1 in a rat …
