During the process of lymphocyte homing to secondary lymphoid organs, such as lymph
nodes and tonsils, lymphocytes interact with and cross a specialized microvasculature,
known as high endothelial venules. There is a great deal of information available about the
first steps in the homing cascade, but molecular understanding of lymphocyte transmigration
through the intercellular junctions of high endothelial venules is lacking. In analyzing
expressed sequence tags from a cDNA library prepared from human tonsillar high …
