C-C and C-X-C Chemokines Trigger Firm Adhesion of Monocytes to Vascular Endothelium under Flow Conditions

In summary, our findings indicate that specific chemokines that are elaborated by endothelial cells after cytokine or endotoxin activation can play an essential role in monocyte recruitment beyond their chemoattractant activities. We show that this action is to translate initial monocyte tethering i...
