Abstract
Methods and compositions are described for modulating trafficking of leukocytes to endothelial cells involving the binding of homing receptors and addressins. Particularly, compositions are provided which can inhibit the interaction between the homing receptor and addressin or provide for directing specific molecules associated with diagnosis or treatment, where the molecules bind to the addressins.
