Recent studies suggest physical and functional interactions of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-linked proteins (CD14, CD16b and CD87) with leukocyte beta 2 integrins. As discussed in this article, it now appears that beta 2 integrins relay proinflammatory information from GPI-anchored membrane receptors to the cytoplasm via exodomain interactions.
