Abstract
Using a model system with which we have previously investigated the adhesion of granulocytes to cultured endothelium, we have now shown that adherent granulocytes migrate through cultured endothelium in a manner closely resembling that found during the acute inflammatory response in vivo. The migration of granulocytes was markedly enhanced in the presence of erythrocytes, whereas blood platelets did not affect migration. Several test agents, including Paroven and some prostaglandins, had different effects upon migration and adhesion. We conclude that the adhesion of granulocytes to endothelium and their migration through it are responses that are, at least in part, separately controlled, and that migration does not depend exclusively upon extravascular stimuli.
