ABSTRACT:
DNA sequences encoding endothelial cell-leukocyte adhesion molecules ELAMs, methods for producing such molecules, and ELAMs (including the specific molecules ELAM1 and VLAM1 and 1b) essentially free of normally associated animal proteins are disclosed.
DNA sequences encoding molecules involved in leukocyte adhesion (MILAs), methods for producing such molecules and MILAs (including the specific molecule, CDX) essentially free of normally associated animal proteins are also disclosed. Antibody preparations which are reactive for MILAs and also disclosed.
Methods for identifying molecules which inhibit binding of leukocytes to endothelial cells, methods for inhibiting leukocyte binding to endothelial cells, and methods for detecting acute inflammation are disclosed.
