Protection from septic peritonitis by rapid neutrophil recruitment through omental high endothelial venules

Neutrophils are critical in preventing the transition of acute peritoneal infection to sepsis. Here the authors show in three mouse models of peritonitis that neutrophils enter the abdominal cavity via high endothelial venules of the greater omentum, and characterize adhesion molecules involved.
