Background:

CD62P/P-Selectin is a type-I transmembrane glycoprotein that is largely expressed and stored in intracellular granules by resting platelets, megakaryocytes, and vascular endothelial cells. The restricted expression pattern of CD62P/P-Selectin positions this molecule as a key regulator of hemostasis, thrombosis, and inflammation. Platelets and endothelial cells that become activated in response to proinflammatory cytokines express CD62P/P-Selectin on the cell surface, which serves as an adhesion receptor to facilitate recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. CD62P/P-Selectin has also been implicated in cancer cell metastasis by promoting the adhesion of tumor cells in circulation to activated platelets and endothelial cells .
