Maestro endothelium conducts the neutrophils

Blood. 2018 Oct 25;132(17):1734-1735. doi: 10.1182/blood-2018-09-872085.

Abstract

In this issue of Blood, Hind and colleagues leverage a custom microscale system to demonstrate that endothelial cells communicate with neutrophils via interleukin-6 (IL-6) and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in the presence of live Pseudomonas aeruginosa to enhance neutrophil transmigration.
