Adhesive Mechanisms of Histone-Induced Neutrophil-Endothelium Interactions in the Muscle Microcirculation.

• Extracellular histones released during cell damage have the capacity to cause tissue injury associated with increased leukocyte accumulation. However, the molecular mechanisms regulating histone-induced leukocyte recruitment remain elusive. The objective of this study was to examine the role of adhesion molecules in histone-dependent leukocyte accumulation by use of intravital microscopy of the mouse cremaster microcirculation.
