Lymphocytes migrate from the bloodstream by recognizing and binding to specialized endothelial cells lining the high endothelial venules (HEV) in lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. We describe here a monoclonal antibody, MEL-14, specific for a lymphocyte surface molecule that appears to mediate recognition of lymph node HEV, and to be required for lymphocyte homing into lymph nodes in vivo.
