CD31 antibodies

Different roles of CD31/PECAM1

Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1), also known as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31), is a cell-surface glycoprotein expressed on platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, some types of T-cells and NK (natural killer) cells. It makes up a large portion of the endothelial cell intercellular junctions. CD31/PECAM1 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and plays many different roles involving leukocyte migration under most inflammatory conditions, angiogenesis, integrin activation, atherosclerosis and thrombopoiesis.
