Journal ArticleDOI

The inflammatory response in myocardial infarction

TL;DR: This review summarizes the current understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating the inflammatory response following myocardial ischemia and reperfusion and concludes that by promoting more effective tissue repair, it may be possible to reduce the deleterious remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

ELAM-1 is an adhesion molecule for skin-homing T cells

TL;DR: It is concluded that at sites of chronic inflammation, ELAM-1 may function as a skin vascular addressin, a tissue-selective endothelial cell-adhesion molecule for skin-homing memory T lymphocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resident Cardiac Mast Cells Degranulate and Release Preformed TNF-α, Initiating the Cytokine Cascade in Experimental Canine Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion

TL;DR: It is suggested that mast cell-derived TNF-alpha may be a crucial factor in upregulating IL-6 in infiltrating leukocytes and initiating the cytokine cascade responsible for myocyte ICAM-1 induction and subsequent neutrophil-induced injury.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spontaneous Skin Ulceration and Defective T Cell Function in CD18 Null Mice

TL;DR: A severe defect in T cell proliferation was found in the CD18 null mice when T cell receptors were stimulated either by staphylococcal enterotoxin A or by major histocompatibility complex alloantigens demonstrating a greater role of CD11/CD18 integrins in Tcell responses than previously documented.
