Product name:Human sP-selectin ELISA Kit
Description:
P-selectin is a cell adhesion molecule (CAM) on the surfaces of activated endothelial cells, which line the inner surface of blood vessels, and activated platelets. In unactivated endothelial cells, it is stored in granules Weibel-Palade bodies, and α-granules in unactivated platelets. P-selectin plays an essential role in the initial recruitment of leukocytes (white blood cells) to the site of injury during inflammation. When endothelial cells are activated by molecules such as histamine or thrombin during inflammation, P-selectin moves from an internal cell location to the endothelial cell surface.P-selectin attaches to the actin cytoskeleton through anchor proteins that are still poorly characterized.
