Bromelain decreases neutrophil interactions with P-selectin, but not E-selectin, in vitro by proteolytic cleavage of P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1. [PDF]
Stem bromelain, a cysteine protease isolated from pineapples, is a natural anti-inflammatory treatment, yet its mechanism of action remains unclear. Curious as to whether bromelain might affect selectin-mediated leukocyte rolling, we studied the ability ...

Soluble P-selectin levels, P-selectin polymorphisms and cardiovascular disease [PDF]
P-selectin is a member of the selectin family of cell adhesion molecules which are important in the transient attachment of leukocytes to endothelial cells and platelets. A number of polymorphisms in the gene encoding P-selectin have been identified.

Background P-selectin is a molecule participating in the inflammatory response through mediating cellular adhesion and essential for wound repair. However, studies regarding P-selectin in Bivalvia are rare. This study identified 90 P-selectin genes among

P‐selectin in haemostasis [PDF]
SummaryDuring the past decade, interrelationships between inflammation and thrombosis have been the subject of extensive works, and it is now commonly recognized that inflammation (notably leucocyte recruitment) directly affects thrombosis, and that thrombosis also constitutes a pro‐inflammatory event.

A Novel Glycosulfopeptide Binds to P-selectin and Inhibits Leukocyte Adhesion to P-selectin [PDF]
P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) is a dimeric membrane mucin on leukocytes that binds selectins. The molecular features of PSGL-1 that determine this high affinity binding are unclear. Here we demonstrate the in vitro synthesis of a novel glycosulfopeptide (GSP-6) modeled after the extreme N terminus of PSGL-1, which has been predicted to be ...

A functional epitope on P-selectin that supports binding of P-selectin to P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 but not to sialyl Lewis X oligosaccharides [PDF]
P-selectin mediates the adhesion of leukocytes to activated platelets and endothelial cells. To characterize the functional domains of P-selectin for ligand recognition, we established nine hybridoma cell lines secreting anti-rat P-selectin mAb. Among them, the mAb C215 bound both rat and human P-selectins, and inhibited binding of rat and human P ...

SELP Asp603Asn and severe thrombosis in COVID-19 males
Thromboembolism is a frequent cause of severity and mortality in COVID-19. However, the etiology of this phenomenon is not well understood. A cohort of 1186 subjects, from the GEN-COVID consortium, infected by SARS-CoV-2 with different severity was ...

Glycosylation inhibitors efficiently inhibit P-selectin-mediated cell adhesion to endothelial cells. [PDF]
Adhesion molecules play a critical role in the adhesive interactions of multiple cell types in sickle cell disease (SCD). We previously showed that anti-P-selectin aptamer efficiently inhibits cell adhesion to endothelial cells (ECs) and permits SCD mice

One of the causes of cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is platelet hyperactivity. Adhesion and secretion are the beginning of platelet activation, which is indicated by a change in the Platelet-selectin (P-selectin) level.

Affinity and Kinetic Analysis of P-selectin Binding to P-selectin Glycoprotein Ligand-1 [PDF]
Leukocytes use the cell-surface mucin P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) to tether to and roll on P-selectin on activated endothelial cells and platelets. By using surface plasmon resonance, we measured the affinity and kinetics of binding of soluble monomeric human P-selectin to immobilized PSGL-1 from human neutrophils.
