VE-cadherin RGD motifs are dispensable for cell-cell junctions, endothelial barrier function and leukocyte extravasation
2025-01-10
Abstract excerpt
VE-cadherin is a key transmembrane protein in endothelial cell-cell junctions, essential for maintaining vascular integrity and regulating selective leukocyte extravasation into inflamed tissue. The extracellular domain of human VE-cadherin contains two arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) motifs, which are known integrin-binding sites, particularly for integrins in the β1, β3, and β5 families. In this study, we exami...
