| Abstract | Motility is critical for the function of T-lymphocytes. Motility in T-lymphocytes is driven by the occupancy of chemokine receptors by chemokines, and modulated by adhesive interactions. However, it is not well understood how the combination of adhesion and chemokine binding affects T-lymphocyte migration. We used microcontact printing on polymeric substrates to measure how lymphocyte migration is quantitatively controlled by adhesion and chemokine ligation. Focusing only on random motion, we found that T-lymphocytes exhibit biphasic motility in response to the substrate concentration of either ICAM-1 or VCAM-1, and generally display more active motion on ICAM-1 surfaces. Furthermore, we examined how the combination of the homeostatic chemokines CCL19 and CCL21 contribute to motility. By themselves, CCL19 and CCL21, ligands for CCR7, elicit biphasic motility, but their combination synergistically increases CCR7 mediated chemokinesis on ICAM-1. By presenting CCL21 with ICAM-1 on the surface with soluble CCL19, we observed random motion that is greater than what is observed with soluble chemokines alone. These data suggest that ICAM-1 has a greater contribution to motility than VCAM-1 and that both adhesive interactions and chemokine ligation work in concert to control T-lymphocyte motility. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
