• Neutrophils rapidly migrate toward the sites of injury, infection, and inflammation using the amoeboid migration mode which is characterized by cell polarization and a high migration velocity. (iucc.ac.il)
  • Therefore, neutrophils have to rapidly switch between distinct migration modes such as intraluminal crawling, transmigration, and interstitial migration to pass these different confinements and mechanical barriers. (iucc.ac.il)
  • So far, most of the in vivo and in vitro approaches to study leukocyte migration across the tissue parenchyma have addressed the role of each single tissue barrier that immune cells encounter in their journey to the inflammatory focus. (hindawi.com)
  • In vitro assays identified transendothelial migration as the most prominent cellular phenotype dependent on CD44. (uni-luebeck.de)
  • Phenomenon of cell-mediated immunity measured by in vitro inhibition of the migration or phagocytosis of antigen-stimulated LEUKOCYTES or MACROPHAGES . (nih.gov)
  • Specific CELL MIGRATION ASSAYS have been developed to estimate levels of migration inhibitory factors, immune reactivity against tumor-associated antigens, and immunosuppressive effects of infectious microorganisms. (nih.gov)
  • Mouse CD99 and its paralog CD99-like 2 (CD99L2) are surface proteins implicated in cellular adhesion and migration. (nih.gov)
  • The nucleus is the largest and stiffest organelle in every cell and is therefore the key cellular element involved in cellular migration through variable confinements. (iucc.ac.il)
  • At present, the cellular mechanisms regulating neutrophil entry to lymphatic vessels and migration to lymph nodes are largely unknown. (ox.ac.uk)
  • Our results demonstrate a novel role for mCD99 in membrane trafficking of mCD99L2, providing useful insights into controlling transendothelial migration of leukocytes. (nih.gov)
  • This review highlights the importance of nuclear deformation during neutrophil crossing of such confinements, with a focus on transendothelial migration and interstitial migration. (iucc.ac.il)
  • Understanding the precise molecular mechanisms that orchestrate these distinct neutrophil migration modes introduces an opportunity to develop new therapeutic concepts for controlling pathological neutrophil-driven inflammation. (iucc.ac.il)
  • The first stage of this immune steeplechase, the leukocyte transendothelial migration, is a multi-step cascade of interactions that have been extensively studied in recent years in different vascular beds and experimental models, and some comprehensive reviews on this topic can be found in this special issue [ 1 - 5 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • We believe that successfully combining our current knowledge about leukocyte extravasation, three-dimensional migration through the stroma and the sequential interactions with parenchymal cell barriers, which include adopting unified experimental models, will help shed light on the entire migratory route of each immune cell type and on the specificity of the innate inflammatory responses in each type of tissue.

  • Cell migration is indispensable for various biological processes including angiogenesis, wound healing, and immunity. (iucc.ac.il)
  • Endothelial and epithelial barriers determine the different stages of leukocyte migration in its journey towards the inflammatory focus in complex tissues. (hindawi.com)
  • The passge may occur intercellularly via paracellular CELL MIGRATION or intracellularly via TRANSCELLULAR CELL MIGRATION. (bvsalud.org)
  • Unregulated neutrophil transendothelial cell migration (TEM) is pathogenic, but the molecular basis of its physiological termination remains unknown. (bvsalud.org)
  • Here, we analysed the migration of parasitized monocytes in model endothelial and interstitial environments. (wustl.edu)
  • Moreover, the interaction of ICAM-1:ß2integrin and endothelial-derived CX3CL1:CX3CR1 enables transcellular migration. (bvsalud.org)
  • The migration of neutrophils from the blood circulation to sites of infection or injury is a key immune response and requires the breaching of endothelial cells (ECs) that line the inner aspect of blood vessels. (bvsalud.org)
  • By contrast, infection robustly increased monocyte and macrophage migration through collagen-rich tissues in a Rho-ROCK-dependent manner consistent with integrin-independent interstitial migration. (wustl.edu)
  • In conclusion, our data suggest that CTLs trigger local chemokine release from the endothelium through ICAM-1-driven signals driving transcellular migration. (bvsalud.org)
  • We found that deletion of CLDN7 increased the transepithelial resistance (TER) and decreased the paracellular permeability for Cl - and Na + in CLDN7 -/- CD cells. (nih.gov)
  • A plausible function for the vascular niche is to assist hematopoietic stem cells in transendothelial migration, which is important during both homing and mobilization. (unisannio.it)
  • Indeed, in experimental models, PTH treatment increases migration of angiogenic CD45+/CD34+ progenitor cells to the hindlimb ischemia as well as in the ischemic heart, promoting tissue repair by enhanced neovascularization and cell survival. (unisannio.it)
  • Genetic ablation of EC autophagy led to excessive neutrophil TEM and uncontrolled leukocyte migration in murine inflammatory models, while pharmacological induction of autophagy suppressed neutrophil infiltration into tissues. (bvsalud.org)
