Biological aspects of tumor necrosis factor.

abstract：:The leukocyte integrins CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1, alphaLbeta2) and CD49d (VLA-4, alpha4beta1, alpha4beta7) mediate leukocyte transendothelial migration during immune and inflammatory responses and provides co-stimulatory signals for the activation of T lymphocytes. Our previous studies demonstrate that the CD11a gene promote...
