Adhesion of intratubular leukocytes to proximal tubules in biopsies of patients with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and the appearance of leukocytes in the urine in interstitial nephritis suggest interactions between leukocytes and tubular epithelia in renal diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cytokines and endotoxin on leukocyte migration through proximal tubular epithelial cells and also to determine the role of the transmembrane adhesion molecules ICAM-1 and CD47 in this process.
