 Leucocyte–stromal interactions are involved at every stage in the trafficking of leucocytes into, within, and out of tissues. The molecular basis by which leucocytes leave the circulation and migrate across endothelium has been well studied (step 1, endothelium). How leucocytes interact with stromal cells (step 2) and how they exit tissue into the lymphatics (step 3) remains poorly understood.
