Abstract

The recruitment of leukocytes from the blood stream into tissues is a key step in immune surveillance and host defense against pathogens. It is also an essential factor in acute and chronic inflammation. Therefore, elucidation of the molecular events that underlie leukocyte emigration into tissues in physiologic and pathologic states is important in understanding mechanisms of disease and in devising new therapies. In this concise review, current understanding of the molecular basis of leukocyte emigration into tissues is presented.
