Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Polymorphonuclear (PMN) leukocyte recruitment to activated pulmonary endothelium is a central mechanism in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). This process is mediated by selectins and their counter-ligand, P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), encoded by SELPLG. Genetic variation in SELPLG has been associated with ARDS susceptibility, while disruption of PSGL-1/P-selectin interactions...
