6-C-kine (SLC), a Lymphocyte Adhesion-triggering Chemokine Expressed by High Endothelium, Is an Agonist for the MIP-3β Receptor CCR7

6-C-kine (SLC), a Lymphocyte Adhesion-triggering Chemokine Expressed by High Endothelium, Is an Agonist for the MIP-3β Receptor CCR7

The beta chemokine known as 6-C-kine, secondary lymphoid-tissue chemokine (SLC), TCA4, or Exodus-2 (herein referred to as 6CK/SLC) can trigger rapid integrin-dependent arrest of lymphocytes rolling under physiological shear and is highly expressed by high endothelial venules, specialized vessels involved in lymphocyte homing from the blood into lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. We show that 6CK/...

6 - C - kine ( SLC ) , a Lymphocyte Adhesion - triggering Chemokine Expressed by High Endothelium , Is an Agonist for the MIP - 3 b Receptor CCR 7

The b chemokine known as 6-C-kine, secondary lymphoid-tissue chemokine (SLC), TCA4, or Exodus-2 (herein referred to as 6CK/SLC) can trigger rapid integrin-dependent arrest of lymphocytes rolling under physiological shear and is highly expressed by high endothelial venules, specialized vessels involved in lymphocyte homing from the blood into lymph nodes and Peyer’s patches. We show that 6CK/SLC...

The Role of Chemokines in the Microenvironmental Control of T versus B Cell Arrest in Peyer's Patch High Endothelial Venules

Chemokines have been hypothesized to contribute to the selectivity of lymphocyte trafficking not only as chemoattractants, but also by triggering integrin-dependent sticking (arrest) of circulating lymphocytes at venular sites of extravasation. We show that T cells roll on most Peyer's patch high endothelial venules (PP-HEVs), but preferentially arrest in segments displaying high levels of lumi...

Lymphocyte adhesion to high endothelium is mediated by two receptors for fibronectin , a ^ fo and integrin

Using a rat model we have previously proposed a role for fibronectin as an adhesive ligand on high endothelial cells (HEC) for recirculating lymphocytes. Lymphocyte adhesion to high endothelial cells was blocked by CS1 peptide (from the type IH connecting segment of fibronectin) and RGD-containing peptides using two different in vitro assays of lymphocyte-HEC recognition, the frozen section ass...
