Top shows data for venules (small open symbols), averages (large open symbols) and arterioles (closed symbols, data from Ref. 585 (originally published as Newtonian wall shear rates) as a function of wall shear rate (1/s) given as Newtonian (8vb/d where vh is blood flow velocity and d is microvessel diameter), the estimate based on platelet tracking (2.1 times higher 586) and the most recent and most accurate estimate based on micro‐particle image velocimetry (micro‐PIV, 4.9 times higher 34). The bottom panel shows rolling flux fraction in arterioles of TNF‐α treated mouse cremaster muscle; data adapted from Ref. 587 (originally published as platelet‐based estimate).

Figure 7. Figure 7.

Mechanisms of leukocyte margination. (A) In tapered tubes or microvessels (like venules), red blood cells (open symbols) tend to overtake larger leukocytes (black symbols) because of red cell deform‐ability and higher velocity, thus “pushing” the leukocytes to the wall. (B) Cross‐sectional view of a glass tube or microvessel perfused with whole blood. Aggregating red blood cells occupy the center (not shown) and push white blot cells (dots) toward the wall. (C) Leukocyte (black dot) margination at a confluence, where Q1 < Q2. The stream from Q1 becomes compressed so the leukocyte entering from venule Q1 is forced toward the wall. Note different scales of panels (from Ref. 588).

Positive and negative regulation of peripheral T cell differentiation by TGFβ1. Transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGFβ1) has opposing effects on the differentiation of different T cell lineages. (A) Differentiation of naïve CD4+ and CD8+ T cells into T helper 1 (TH1) cells, TH2 cells or cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) is opposed by TGF31. (B) The generation of TGFβ1‐producing immunomodulatory T cells, peripheral differentiation of forkhead box P3 (FOXP3)‐expressing regulatory T (Treg) cells and interleukin‐17 (IL‐17) producing TH17 cells is promoted by TGFβ1 signaling. RORγt, retinoic acid receptor‐related orphan receptor‐γt: TR1, T regulatory 1 (from Ref. 162). (See page 6 in colour section at the back of the book)

Consequences of the endothelial surface layer. Nearwall velocity in venule measured by micro‐PIV 204. Delay between double exposures pre‐set in strobe. Left: Intravital microscopy of mouse cremaster venule with two images of the same microbead. ESL is not visible by intravital microscopy, but its presence influences the velocity of the microbeads (schematic diagram on right), because the fluid velocity in the ESL is much smaller than in the lumen. Arrows in diagram indicate bead velocity.

Figure 17. Figure 17.

Adhesion molecules and endothelial surface layer (ESL). Neutrophils interacting with the endothelium lined with a 500‐nm thick ESL (gray) in a postcapillary venule. In capillaries, neutrophils are deformed into a near‐cylindrical shape (A) and deform the ESL. Almost all leukocytes rolling are initiated at the beginning of postcapillary venules, where leukocytes are in close physical contact with the endothelial surface (B). Non‐interacting deformed leukocytes eventually recover their spherical shape (C), but rolling leukocytes, especially neutrophils, acquire a characteristic teardrop shape that reflects the effect of adhesive forces balanced by shear forces on the cytoskeleton (D). Rolling or adherent cells can nucleate L‐selectin‐PSGL‐1‐dependent secondary capture or tethering events (E). A close‐up of a rolling neutrophil (bottom right) shows the endothelial ESL (grey 500 nm) with endothelial adhesion molecules (E‐selectin, 30 nm, and P‐selectin, 40 nm). The black hairlike lines represent the length of a P‐selectin‐PSGL‐1 pair (100nm) completely buried in the ESL. Rolling leukocytes probably continuously deform the ESL as they roll while selectin (and integrin) bonds are formed at the leading edge (right) and broken at the trailing edge (left). Arrows indicate direction of blood flow (figure from Ref. 206). (See page 6 in colour section at the back of the book)

Figure 18. Figure 18.

Integrin affinity regulation. Conformational changes in the α and β chains (red and blue), resulting in increased affinity for monovalent ligands. Note that cytoplasmic tails move apart during affinity regulation, probably through interaction with talin (green oval) (modified from Ref. 252). (See page 6 in colour section at the back of the book)

Figure 19. Figure 19.

Integrin avidity regulation by lateral mobility/clustering. Transient release of integrins from cytoskeletal anchorage (actin filaments, represented as strings of circles) allows integrin rearrangement and clustering in the plane of the cell membrane, resulting in increased avidity for multivalent ligands. Integrins bind actin through various linker proteins (green ovals and not shown) (modified from Ref. 252). (See page 6 in colour section at the back of the book)

Figure 20. Figure 20.

Mammalian integrin subunits and their αβ associations. 8 β subunits can assort with 18 α. subunits to form 24 distinct integrins. These can be considered in several subfamilies based on evolutionary relationships (coloring of α subunits), ligand specificity and, in the case of β2 and β7 integrins, restricted expression on white blood cells, α subunits with gray hatching or stippling have inserted I domains (from Ref. 254). (See page 7 in colour section at the back of the book)

Figure 21. Figure 21.

Leukocyte rolling in mouse cremaster venules (∼25mm diameter) without (top) and with (bottom) TNF‐α treatment. In untreated venules, rolling is largely P‐selectin dependent 318,319. Although leukocyte rolling flux does not increase after TNF‐α, many more rolling neutrophils are seen per field of view, because the rolling velocity decreases dramatically through E‐selectin 346 and LFA‐1 engagement 347. Note deformation of rolling cells (arrowhead). Arrow indicates direction of flow.

(A) Assembly of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase NOX2. In resting neutrophil granulocytes (left), NOX2 and p22phox are found primarily in the membrane of intracellular vesicles. They exist in close association, costabilizing one another. Upon activation (right), there is an exchange of GDP for GTP on Rac leading to its activation. Phosphorylation of the cytosolic p47phox subunit leads to conformational changes allowing interaction with p22phox. The movement of p47phox brings with it the other cytoplasmic subunits, p67phox and p40phox to form the active NOX2 enzyme complex. Once activated, there is a fusion of NOX2‐containing vesicles with the plasma membrane or the phagosomal membrane. The active enzyme complex transports electrons from cytoplasmic NADPH to extracellular or phagosomal oxygen to generate superoxide (O2) (from Ref. 592). (B) Myeloperoxidase and other microbicidal products. BPI, bactericidal permeability increasing protein; H2O2, hydrogen peroxide; HOBr, hypobromous acid; HOCI. hypochlorous acid; HOI, hypoiodous acid; MMP, matrix metalloproteinase; 1O2, singlet oxygen; O2, superoxide; O3, ozone; OH, hydroxyl radical; phox, phagocyte oxidase (from Ref. 593).

Proinflammatory effects of the coagulation system. The role of protease‐activated receptors (PARs) in the crosstalk between coagulation and inflammation. Tissue factor (TF) expression within the vasculature leads to activation of the coagulation proteases factor VIIa, factor Xa, and thrombin (IIa). Thrombin activates platelets, cleaves fibrinogen, and, when bound to thrombomodulin (TM) in association with the endothelial cell protein C receptor (E). activates protein C to generate activated protein C (APC). Thrombin also activates PAR‐1 and PAR‐4. The TF‐factor VIIa‐factor Xa complex activates PAR‐1 and PAR‐2 (from Ref. 594). (See page 8 in colour section at the back of the book)

Proinflammatory effects of the coagulation system. The role of protease‐activated receptors (PARs) in the crosstalk between coagulation and inflammation. Tissue factor (TF) expression within the vasculature leads to activation of the coagulation proteases factor VIIa, factor Xa, and thrombin (IIa). Thrombin activates platelets, cleaves fibrinogen, and, when bound to thrombomodulin (TM) in association with the endothelial cell protein C receptor (E). activates protein C to generate activated protein C (APC). Thrombin also activates PAR‐1 and PAR‐4. The TF‐factor VIIa‐factor Xa complex activates PAR‐1 and PAR‐2 (from Ref. 594). (See page 8 in colour section at the back of the book)
