An introduction to modelling lymphocyte migration in vitro

Lymphocyte recruitment to inflamed endothelial cells (EC) is fundamental to immune homeostasis – providing both cell-mediated defence against disease, while also contributing to the resolution of inflammation. However, the dynamic relationship between lymphocytes and EC can become

Go with the flow: Studying the movement of T-cells to sites of inflammation

Inflammation is the protective response of the immune system that aids the removal of invading infectious agents and repair tissue injury. It involves the movement of white blood cells (leukocytes) from the bloodstream, through the cells lining

The T cell IFT20 interactome: new insights into immune synapse assembly regulation by the IFT system

T lymphocytes are key cellular components of the immune system that are essential for the elimination of viral, bacterial and parasitic infections as well as of malignant cells. T cell activation is initiated following recognition of pathogen-
