Increased monocyte adhesion to the endothelial lining of blood vessels by cytokine-inducible adhesion proteins is a crucial event in inflammatory processes. Moreover, adherence is known to induce cytokine gene expression, suggesting a possible positive feedback mechanism. Therefore, we determined wh

The expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) by endothelial cells is important for the regulation of adhesion and transendothelial migration of a variety of leukocytes that express the integrins lymphocyte functionassociated antigen 1 (LFA-1) and/or Mac-1. Here, we demonstrate strain
Previous studies have shown that Ni-based alloys implanted into soft tissues cause an infiltration of inflammatory cells around the implant. This phenomenon is potentially important to dental alloys which are adjacent to oral tissues. To help define the mechanisms by which Ni causes an infiltration
## We have previously demonstrated that human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cells express high-affinity IL-4 receptors (IL-4R). To study the functions of these receptors, we have examined the effect of IL-4 on the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-I (ICAM-I or CD54) on human RCC cells. Fo
