Figure 4. Features of MCAM+ T cells.

Figure 4

T cells expressing MCAM display an effector memory phenotype with the expression of IL-17, ILN-γ, and TNF-α. The presence of MCAM on the cell surface has been demonstrated to facilitate the binding and transmigration of these cells through the endothelium to the site of active inflammation by a mechanism that has yet to be fully elucidated.
