  Soluble mediators and inducible cell-surface molecules coordinate the ordered cascade of events giving rise to inflammation. The specific mechanisms underlying the attraction of antigen-specific cells into a site of inflammation remain sketchy, however. In particular, it is unclear how chemoattractants cause rapidly moving immune cells to adhere to the blood vessel wall and to enter inflamed tissues.
