Migration, Cell–Cell Interaction and Adhesion in the Immune System

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Ernst Schering Foundation Symposium Proceedings ((SCHERING FOUND,volume 2007/3))

Abstract

Migration is an essential function of immune cells. It is necessary to lead immune cell precursors from their site of generation to the places of maturation or function. Cells of the adaptive immune system also need to interact physically with each other or with specialized antigen presenting cells in lymphatic tissues in order to become activated. Thereby a complex series of controlled migration events, adhesive interactions and signalling responses is induced. Finally cells must be able to leave the activating tissues and re-enter the bloodstream from which they extravasate into inflamed tissue sites. Cells of the innate immune system can function directly without the need for previous activation. However, these cells have to adapt their function to a panoply of pathogens and environmental niches which can be invaded. The current review highlights the central aspects of cellular dynamics underlying adaptive and innate cellular immunity. Thereby a focus will be put on recent results obtained by microscopic observation of live cells in vitro or by intravital 2-photon microscopy in live animals.
