It is supposed that in many such cases the hemorrhage is due to diapedesis, and not to rupture of a blood-vessel. |
In 1870, Woodward observed a photomicrograph from the stomach of a mare with gastroenteritis demonstrating a white blood cell undergoing diapedesis from a small vein. |
Diapedesis is now supposed to be the result of blood pressure, but it occurs in snakebite, where blood pressure is at zero. |
This escape of red corpuscles is known as diapedesis, and is sometimes so extensive as to amount to capillary hemorrhage. |
The main action of endocan relates to the inhibition of leukocyte diapedesis. |
These events contribute to leukocyte diapedesis across the endothelial monolayer and tissue inflammation. |
