    Figure 5. Conventional calpains in lymphatic endothelial cells decelerate lymphatic trafficking through induction of VCAM1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule 1). A, Lymphocyte homing assay. Following 12 weeks of diet feeding, CFDA (5(6)-carboxyfluorescein diacetate)-labeled splenic CD4+ cells were injected into the footpad of mice. Sixteen hours after the injection, CD4+ T cells and CD4+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in popliteal lymph nodes (LNs) were monitored (LNL [loxP-flanked Neo cassette]: n=9 animals, cTg: n=8 animals). B, Gene expression profiles in mesenteric LNs. The genes exhibiting high expression levels with a statistically significant difference are indicated in mean-average plot (left; n=3 animals). C, VCAM1 neutralization inhibits afferent lymphatic transportation of Tregs. VCAM1 antibody (2.5 µg/site) or nonimmune IgG (2.5 µg/site) was injected together with CD4+ cells (Cont IgG: n=5 animals, VCAM1 mAb: n=6 animals).

Bar: 10 µm. Data in C and D were expressed as median with 95% confidence limits. Others were indicated as mean±SEM. P values were determined by Mann-Whitney test (C and D), Student t test (A [CD4+ cells], B, E [CAST]), or Welch test (A [Tregs] and E [Capns1]).
