Abstract:
Ligands for L-selectin are expressed not only on vascular endothelial cells but also in the extravascular tissues. In this article, we summarize the current understanding of the "vascular" ligands for L-selectin. We also describe identification of "non-vascular" ligands for L-selectin and discuss their possible biological significance.
