Description
This file contains gene microarray data from FACS purified mouse high endothelial cells and capillary endothelial cells from peripheral lymph nodes, mesenteric lymph nodes, and Peyers patches. The data will allow for better understanding of the specialization of high endothelial venules (HEV) and their role in lymphocyte recruitment from the blood; the tissue-specific differentiation of lymphoid tissue vasculature; and the specialized features of capillary vs. post-capillary endothelium, including differences in signaling pathways, adhesive properties and mechanisms of hemostasis.
