CD99-Like 2 (CD99L2) is a 52 kDa type I glycoprotein expressed on leukocytes and endothelial cells as well as other cell types in mice. It is related to CD99, although it shows only 32% sequence identity. CD99L2 has been shown to play a role in leukocyte extravasation in mice under...
When properly regulated, inflammation leads to the recruitment and activation of circulating leukocytes to maintain and restore tissue homeostasis. Although this process is critical for successful wound healing and the elimination of pathogens and infections, misdirected inflammation can exacerbate pathology and cause substantial morbidity and mortality. Inflammation a fundamental process...
