Diapedesis is the process by which white blood cells move through the walls of blood vessels to reach tissues where they are needed, typically in response to inflammation or infection. During this process, leukocytes adhere to the endothelial cells lining the blood vessels and then squeeze through the intercellular junctions to enter the surrounding tissues. This is a crucial step in the immune response, allowing immune cells to target pathogens and facilitate healing.
