Background:

Tumor endothelial marker 1 (TEM1/endosialin) is a heavily glycosylated, type I transmembrane C-type lectin-like receptor of the Ras superfamily expressed in the vascular endothelium and on fibroblast-like cells in developing organs. Expression of TEM1 largely disappears in adulthood. TEM1 is structurally related to thrombomodulin and complement receptor C1qRp. It consists of three EGF-like domains, a C-type lectin domain and a Sushi domain. TEM1 is highly upregulated in tumor endothelium and is known to function in tumor growth and progression. For this reason TEM1 is a major target in anti-angiogenic tumor therapy. TEM1 may be responsible for concentrating liposomes on the surface of target cells and promoting their fusion with the cell membrane.
