Gene Information

human ... PECAM1(5175)

General description

The platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1) gene, spanning 75-kb, is mapped on the long arm of human chromosome 17. This gene codes for 130kDa protein, which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. It is a vital component of the endothelial cell intercellular junction. PECAM1 is expressed on the surface of circulating platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and selected T-cell subsets.

Immunogen

PECAM1 (AAH22512, 29 a.a. ~ 738 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1) also called as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31), plays a crucial role in the adhesion cascade leading to leukocyte extravasation during the inflammatory process. PECAM1 is essential for leukocyte transmigration via intercellular junctions of vascular endothelial cells. Genetic polymorphism of PECAM1 is associated with atherosclerotic events. PECAM1, is a membrane glycoprotein that facilitates both homophilic and heterophilic adhesion. PECAM1 is also implicated in angiogenesis.

Platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1; CD31) is crucial to the process of leukocyte transmigration through intercellular junctions of vascular endothelial cells. A monoclonal antibody to PECAM, or recombinant soluble PECAM, blocks transendothelial migration of monocytes by 70-90%. Pretreating either

Genetic polymorphisms of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) were found to play roles in atherosclerotic events. We determined PECAM-1 polymorphisms, soluble PECAM-1, and CD40L levels in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and evaluated their associations with

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by significant exercise intolerance, which is multifactorial and involves skeletal muscle alterations. There is growing evidence that microRNAs (miRs) are involved in PAH pathogenesis. We hypothesized that miR-126, an endothelial-specific, proangiogenic miR, is down-regulated
