Figure 7.

Percentage of integrins on the cell surface that fall within 40 nm of the endothelial cell surface as a function of contact stress for the three conditions given in Table 1 (high shear stress, green curve; low shear stress, orange curve; and the case in which no EGL is present, red curve). Note that the maximal contact stress that can be exerted by a neutrophil with typical cortical tension (20 pN/μm) is 10 Pa. To see this figure in color, go online.
