Sticking B and T cells are segregated in PP-HEVs. Accumulated B and T cells in PP-HEVs of normal mice were analyzed for preferential localization after injection of equal numbers of each subset. Follicles were identified by characteristic autofluorescence of resident dendritic cells and macrophages. HEV segments were defined as follicular if lying within or upon a follicle, cortical if wholly within the cortex, and crossing when transitional from follicle to cortex. Red (T) and green (B) accumulated cells were enumerated 8 min after injection in each class of vessels. Data are presented as percentage of B or T cells observed among cells in each vessel type; mean results of three experiments (± SD).
