<h4>Objective</h4>Core2 1-6-N-glucosaminyltransferase-I (C2GlcNAcT-I) modification of adhesion molecules is required for optimal binding to target ligands. The objective of this study was to determine the role of C2GlcNAcT-I in the recruitment of Ly-6C(hi) monocytes to atherosclerotic lesions and in lesion formation in mice.<h4>Methods and results</h4>In a whole-blood binding assay, Ly-6C(hi) monocytes and certain lymphocytes and natural killer cells from wild-type mice bound to P- and E-selecti ...[more]
