E- and P-Selectin: Differences, Similarities and Implications for the Design of P-Selectin Antagonists [PDF]
Selectins form a family of Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate binding proteins that mediate the initial step of leukocyte recruitment in the inflammatory process. Blocking of selectins is therefore considered a promising therapeutic approach to treat acute and chronic inflammatory diseases which are caused by excessive extravasation of leukocytes.

Total and extracellular vesicle–bound plasma P-selectin as diagnostic biomarkers for acute deep vein thrombosis [PDF]
Background: Plasma P-selectin has shown moderate diagnostic potential for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). In plasma, P-selectin is found in soluble form and bound to extracellular vesicles (EVs).

P-selectin-mediated platelet adhesion promotes the metastasis of murine melanoma cells. [PDF]
Studies have indicated that the aggregation of activated platelets with cancer cells facilitates tumor metastasis; the adhesion molecule P-selectin may be an important mediator of this process, but the detailed mechanism is unclear. In the current study,

Targeted Delivery to Dying Cells Through P-Selectin–PSGL-1 Axis: A Promising Strategy for Enhanced Drug Efficacy in Liver Injury Models [PDF]
To minimize off-target adverse effects and improve drug efficacy, various tissue-specific drug delivery systems have been developed. However, even in diseased organs, both normal and stressed, dying cells coexist, and a targeted delivery system ...

Lung-Derived Selectins Enhance Metastatic Behavior of Triple Negative Breast Cancer Cells
The lung is one of the deadliest sites of breast cancer metastasis, particularly for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC). We have previously shown that the lung produces several soluble factors that may enhance the metastatic behavior of TNBC, including
