title: Quantitative study of various factors influencing the migration of lymphocytes in vitro: glucocortico-steroid, PHA, cyclosporin A and heparin.
abstract: Various agents known to influence the lymphocyte recirculation in vivo were investigated for their effect on the migration of lymphocytes in 3-D collagen gel. Both glucocortico-steroid and cyclosporin A were shown to inhibit the migration in a dose dependent manner. In contrast heparin and PHA treated lymphocytes migrated at a significantly faster rate.
