Platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31) expression on donor endothelial cells attenuates the development of transplant arteriosclerosis.
BACKGROUND: Platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule(PECAM)-1 (CD31) is expressed on the surface of endothelial cells, platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and certain T-cell subsets. Treatment of endothelial cells with anti-PECAM-1 antibody inhibits leukocyte transmigration. This study was design...
