CD31 as a marker for endothelial cells
CD31 or Platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (PECAM-1) is a 130-kDa cell adhesion molecule that is highly expressed on the surface of endothelial cells and to a lesser extent on a range of hematopoietic cells, such as platelets, monocytes, neutrophils and T-cell subsets. At endothelial cell-cell borders, CD31 forms homophilic interactions and functions as a regulator of both the vascular permeability barrier and of leukocyte trafficking (reviewed in Lertkiatmongkol et al., 2016).
