α1β1 Integrin-Mediated Adhesion Inhibits Macrophage Exit from a Peripheral Inflammatory Lesion
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Integrins are adhesion molecules critical for the recruitment of leukocytes from blood into peripheral tissues. However, whether integrins are also involved in leukocyte exit from peripheral tissues via afferent lymphatics to the draining lymph node remains poorly understood. In this article, we show that adhesion by the collagen IV-binding integrin α1β1 unexpectedly inhibited macrophage exit from inflamed skin. We monitored macrophages exiting mouse footpads using a newly developed in situ pulse labeling technique. Blockade of α1β1 integrin or genetic deletion (Itga1(-/-)) increased macrophage exit efficiency. Chemotaxis assays through collagen IV showed more efficient migration of Itga1(-/-) macrophages relative to wild type. Given that macrophages are key orchestrators of inflammation, α1β1 integrin adhesion may represent a mechanism for regulating inflammatory responses by controlling macrophage exit or persistence in inflamed tissues.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
