All parameters are expressed as mean ± SEM in the indicated number of animals and vessels (N/n). Values of significance (P) are indicated below compared groups in the respective columns. Total capture efficiency (TCE)/mm2, primary capture efficiency (PCE)/mm2 and secondary capture efficiency (SCE)/mm2 represent total-, primary, and secondary capture efficiency adjusted for differences in the observed vessel area, respectively. Anti-L indicates treatment with the L-selectin blocking antibody MEL-14. ∅ indicates vessel diameter.
