Abstract
The endothelial cell (EC) glycocalyx has been hypothesized to inhibit binding of leukocytes (WBCs) to the EC by preventing adhesion of receptors and ligands. To explore this possibility, fluorescent microspheres (FLM, 0.1 μm), were labeled with ICAM-1 antibody 1a29 and infused into the microvasculature of rat mesentery. Adhesion of FLMs and WBCs to ECs were evaluated by intravital microscopy.
