  2. Leukocyte extravasation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukocyte_extravasation

    Neutrophils extravasate from blood vessels to the site of tissue injury or infection during the innate immune response.. In immunology, leukocyte extravasation (also commonly known as leukocyte adhesion cascade or diapedesis – the passage of cells through the intact vessel wall) is the movement of leukocytes (white blood cells) out of the circulatory system (extravasation) and towards the ...

  3. Extravasation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extravasation

    Extravasation of irrigation fluid is the unintended migration of irrigation fluid (e.g., saline) introduced into a human body.This may occur in several types of endoscopic surgery, such as minimally invasive orthopedic surgery, i.e., arthroscopy, TURP (trans-urethral resection of the prostate), and TCRE (trans-cervical resection of the endometrium).

  4. Angiopellosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angiopellosis

    Angiopellosis extravasation occurs as a means for cells that are not native to the circulation to exit. This includes adult stem cells that are injected intravenously for therapies. Cells that are normally found in circulation (i.e. blood cells ) either extravasate through diapedesis (white blood cells), or do not extravasate and remain in ...

  5. The Inner Life of the Cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Inner_Life_of_the_Cell

    The Inner Life of the Cell is an 8.5-minute 3D computer graphics animation illustrating the molecular mechanisms that occur when a white blood cell in the blood vessels of the human body is activated by inflammation (Leukocyte extravasation).

  6. Sialyl-Lewis X - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sialyl-Lewis_X

    Sialyl Lewis X (sLeX), also known as cluster of differentiation 15s (CD15s) or stage-specific embryonic antigen 1 (SSEA-1), is a tetrasaccharide carbohydrate which is usually attached to O-glycans on the surface of cells.

  7. High endothelial venules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_endothelial_venules

    In contrast to the endothelial cells from other vessels, the high endothelial cells of HEVs have a distinctive appearance, consisting of a cuboidal morphology and with various receptors to interact with leukocytes (express specialized ligands for lymphocytes and are able to support high levels of lymphocyte extravasation).

  9. Leukopoiesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leukopoiesis

    Leukopoiesis is a form of hematopoiesis in which white blood cells (WBC, or leukocytes) are formed in bone marrow located in bones in adults and hematopoietic organs in the fetus. White blood cells, indeed all blood cells, are formed from the differentiation of pluripotent hematopoietic stem cells which give rise to several cell lines with ...
