What is the role and leukocyte molecule that P-selectin binds?
Sialyl-Lewis X-modified proteins
Rolling (neutrophils, monocytes, T lymphocytes)
What is the role and leukocyte molecule that E-selectin binds?
Sialyl-Lewis X-modified proteins
Rolling and adhesion (neutrophils, monocytes, T lymphocytes)
What is the role and leukocyte molecule that GlyCam-1, CD34 binds?
L-selectin - L-selectin is expressed weakly on neutrophils. It is involved in the binding of circulating T-lymphocytes to the high endothelial venules in lymph nodes and mucosal lymphoid tissues, and subsequent "homing" of lymphocytes to these tissues.
