Abstract

The results indicate that CL18/6 antagonism of ICAM-1 provided cardioprotection associated with reduced neutrophil activity in vulnerable myocardium, and suggest that ICAM-1 mediated neutrophil sequestration in endangered cardiac tissue is an important mechanism of myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury.
