Inflammation-dependent leukocyte recruitment retained in FucT-VII deficiency is extinguished in FucT-IV(-/-)/FucT-VII (-/-) mice. Double deficiency yields an extreme leukocytosis and contributes to HEV-born L-selectin ligands,since lymphocyte homing retained in FucT-VII(-/) mice is revoked in FucT-IV(-/)/FucT-VII(-/-) mice. These observations reveal essential FucT-IV-dependent contributions to E-, P-, and L-selectin ligand synthesis and to the control of leukocyte recruitment and lymphocyte homing.
