Q

PMN response to inflammatory signals

A

PMNs roll along endothelial cells, binding loosely to selectin proteins. Inflammation increases # of selectins, causing PMNs to express Integrin surface proteins, which bind to Integrin receptors. PMNs leave vessels by Diapedesis, move towards infection by chemotaxis
