Abstract excerpt
Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1/CD31), a tyrosine phosphoprotein highly expressed on endothelial cells and leukocytes, is an important component in the regulation of neutrophil transendothelial migration. Engagement of endothelial PECAM-1 activates tyrosine phosphorylation events and evokes prolonged calcium transients, while homophilic engagement of neutrophil PECAM-1 activates leukocyte...
