Adhesion mechanisms regulating the migration of monocytes

Open access
Imhof, Beat A., Aurrand-Lions, Michel·2004·Nature Reviews Immunology

Abstract

Because of their phagocytic activity and their ability to differentiate into antigen-presenting cells, monocytes participate in both innate and adaptive immune responses. They derive from bone-marrow progenitor cells, circulate in the blood as monocytes and differentiate into tissue macrophages or myeloid dendritic cells in the periphery. After activation by an antigenic challenge in the tissues, they can contribute to the local resolution of the injury or can migrate farther to secondary lymphoid organs. Recruitment of these cells from the blood to the tissue and from the tissue to the lymph nodes requires orchestrated adhesive interactions between leukocytes and the vascular or lymphatic endothelium. Here, we discuss the signals by which chemokines regulate the leukocyte-adhesion molecules that are essential for transendothelial migration, and we describe the routes taken by monocytes and myeloid dendritic cells to reach their final destination.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
