In vivo imaging and quantitative analysis of leukocyte directional migration and polarization in inflamed tissue.

Directional migration of transmigrated leukocytes to the site of injury is a central event in the inflammatory response. Here, we present an in vivo chemotaxis assay enabling the visualization and quantitative analysis of subtype-specific directional motility and polarization of leukocytes in their...
