The effect of soluble factors from Leishmania on the adhesion capacity of human monocytes.
Human monocytes were cultured in the top chamber of transwell modules either alone (M) or with Leishmania (M + L). The bottom chamber contained medium, Leishmania (L), or macrophages and Leishmania (M + L). After 24 h, the cells in the top chamber were collected and subjected to the adhesion assay on surfaces coated with fibronectin or collagen.
