Chemotaxis experiments will be performed in order to ascertain the migratory characteristics of leukocytes towards specific chemoattractants. Comparisons of cells from different subjects will be compared. In addition, the effects of various pharmaceutical interventions on this mechanism will also be addressed and compared within subject groups. In some experiments, cells will be differentiated in vitro and their cellular expression and regulation of inflammatory mediators and chemoattractants examined. Again comparisons will be made between subject groups and the efficacy of various pharmacological agents on these cells
