The potential relevance of these soluble mediators in the evaluation of disease activity was also investigated...

... 20% of circulating peripheral blood T cells are CLA–positive. In contrast, more than 85% if not all of skin–infiltrating T cells express this E–selectin binding molecule, implicating CLA as an important cell surface adhesion molecule involved in homing of T lymphocytes to the skin [ 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8...

... the numerous pairs of surface adhesion molecules, the CD23/CD21 pair seems to play a key role in the generation of IgE. The CD23 molecule is positively and negatively regulated by factors which increase or decrease IgE production, respectively. Antibodies to CD23 have been shown to inhibit IL-4-induced human...

In addition, RANTES did not augment the expression of β 2 -integrin adhesion molecules (lymphocyte function associated antigen-1α (LFA-1α), LFA-1β, complement receptor type 3 (CR3)) on human eosinophils. These findings suggest that RANTES not only modulates the chemotactic...
