E-Selectin Background Information Selectins, also designated CD62 antigens, comprise a family of carbohydrate- binding proteins involved in mediating cellular interactions with leukocytes. L-Selectin (also designated LECAM-1 or CD62L) is expressed on the majority of B and naive T cells and on most monocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils. L-Selectin interacts with specific carbohydrates expressed by activated endothelial cells. P-Selectin (also designated GMP-140 or CD62P), expressed on activated platelets and endothelial cells, and E-Selectin (also designated ELMA-1 or CD62E), expressed on endothelial cells, exhibit overlapping ligand specificities. E-Selectin is expressed by cytokine-stimulated endothelial cells and is thought to be responsible for the accumulation of blood leukocytes at sites of inflammation by mediating the adhesion of cells to the vascular lining.
