Urine L-selectin reflects clinical and histological renal disease activity and treatment response in lupus nephritis across multi-ethnicity [PDF]
ObjectiveThere is an urgent need for novel biomarkers in lupus nephritis (LN). We report a non-invasive urinary biomarker, L-selectin, in two independent multi-ethnic cohorts.MethodsuL-selectin was tested cross-sectionally in a Chinese cohort (n=255) and

Serine Phosphorylation of L-Selectin Regulates ERM Binding, Clustering, and Monocyte Protrusion in Transendothelial Migration [PDF]
The migration of circulating leukocytes toward damaged tissue is absolutely fundamental to the inflammatory response, and transendothelial migration (TEM) describes the first cellular barrier that is breached in this process.

Tetraspanin CD53 Promotes Lymphocyte Recirculation by Stabilizing L-Selectin Surface Expression [PDF]
Summary: Tetraspanins regulate key processes in immune cells; however, the function of the leukocyte-restricted tetraspanin CD53 is unknown. Here we show that CD53 is essential for lymphocyte recirculation.

L-selectin-dependent and -independent homing of naïve lymphocytes through the lung draining lymph node support T cell response to pulmonary Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. [PDF]
Recruiting large numbers of naïve lymphocytes to lymph nodes is critical for mounting an effective adaptive immune response. While most naïve lymphocytes utilize homing molecule L-selectin to enter lymph nodes, some circulating cells can traffic to the ...

Highly glycosylated MUC1 mediates high affinity L-selectin binding at the human endometrial surface [PDF]
Background Sialyl-Lewis X/L-selectin high affinity binding interactions between transmembrane O-glycosylated mucins proteins and the embryo have been implicated in implantation processes within the human reproductive system.

Pak1 Kinase Promotes Activated T Cell Trafficking by Regulating the Expression of L-Selectin and CCR7 [PDF]
Normal function of the adaptive immune system requires trafficking of T cells between the blood and lymphoid organs. Lymphocyte homing to lymph nodes requires that they cross endothelial barriers present in blood vessels and lymphatics.

HIV-1 targets L-selectin for adhesion and induces its shedding for viral release [PDF]
HIV binding is mediated via CD4 and chemokine co-receptors, but this does not explain the preferential infection of central memory CD4+ T cells. Here the authors show HIV targets L-selectin, induces shedding from the infected cell, and inhibition of L ...

Hypotonicity induces L-selectin shedding in human neutrophils [PDF]
Expression levels of adhesion molecules on neutrophils are affected under various conditions, including ischemia, possibly because of associated increases in cell volume. We examined the effects of cell swelling in hypotonic media on the level of L-selectin (CD62L) and β2-integrin (CD18) on human neutrophils.
