Objective—Although junctional adhesion molecule (JAM)-C has been implicated in the control of inflammatory leukocyte recruitment, its role in neointima formation after arterial injury has not been elucidated. Methods and Results—In apolipoprotein E–deficient (Apoe / ) mice fed an atherogenic diet, antibody blockade of JAM-C significantly reduced neointimal hyperplasia after wire injury of carot...
