The cytoskeletons of the leukocytes are reorganized in such a way that the leukocytes are spread out over the endothelial cells. In this form, leukocytes extend pseudopodia and pass through gaps between endothelial cells. This passage of cells through the intact vessel wall is called diapedesis.
Where do leukocytes perform diapedesis?
TEM, or diapedesis, is the process whereby the leukocyte squeezes in ameboid fashion across the endothelial cells. This almost always happens at endothelial cell borders101,117 (a small fraction of transmigration occurs through the endothelial cell body; this will be discussed later).

How do leukocytes migrate?
Because leukocytes cannot swim, they are recruited locally at the site of inflammation in a series of adhesive steps that allow them to attach to the vessel wall, locomote along the wall to the endothelial borders, traverse the endothelium and the subendothelial basement membrane, and migrate through the interstitial ...
