Expression of adhesion molecules, β2 integrins, α4 integrins, or L-selectin on blood and peritoneal eosinophils (n = 4 preparations) and neutrophils (n = 3 preparations) were quantified and analyzed by indirect immunofluorescence and FACS analysis and are expressed as specific mean fluorescence (the results are corrected for the relevant control values). For methodological details, see the Materials and Methods. Data are the mean ± SEM and the numbers in the parenthesis indicate the P value comparing the difference between blood and peritoneal leukocytes.
