Other Information

**Key Characteristics** 1. **Cell surface expression**: L-selectin is expressed on the surface of various immune cells, including mature alpha-beta T cells, pro-T cells, CD14-positive and CD16-negative classical monocytes, and immature natural killer cells. 2. **Leukocyte cell-cell adhesion**: L-selectin mediates the binding of leukocytes to endothelial cells and other leukocytes, enabling their recruitment to sites of inflammation. 3. **Homophilic and heterophilic binding**: L-selectin exhibits both homophilic (binding to itself) and heterophilic (binding to other selectins) binding properties, allowing for the interaction with other selectins and other adhesion molecules. 4. **Carbohydrate binding**: L-selectin recognizes and binds to specific carbohydrate ligands, such as sialyl Lewis X, which are expressed on the surface of endothelial cells and other leukocytes. **Pathways and Functions** 1. **Adaptive immune response**: L-selectin plays a crucial role in the recruitment of T cells and monocytes to lymphoid organs, facilitating their activation and proliferation in response to antigen presentation. 2. **Innate immune response**: L-selectin is involved in the recruitment of neutrophils and other leukocytes to sites of inflammation, contributing to the innate immune response. 3. **Leukocyte migration**: L-selectin mediates the rolling and adhesion of leukocytes to endothelial cells, allowing them to migrate through the blood vessel wall and into tissues. 4. **Immunoregulation**: L-selectin may also play a role in the regulation of immune responses by modulating the interaction between leukocytes and endothelial cells, influencing the intensity and duration of the immune response. **Clinical Significance** 1. **Inflammatory diseases**: Alterations in L-selectin expression or function have been implicated in various inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. 2. **Cancer**: L-selectin has been shown to be overexpressed in certain types of cancer, including leukemia and lymphoma, where it may contribute to tumor progression and metastasis. 3. **Transplantation**: L-selectin has been targeted as a potential therapeutic strategy for modulating the immune response in organ transplantation, where it may be used to prevent graft rejection. 4. **Autoimmune diseases**: L-selectin may also play a role in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and lupus, where it may contribute to the dysregulation of immune responses. In conclusion, the SELL gene and its product, L-selectin, play a critical role in the immune system, mediating leukocyte cell-cell adhesion and migration, and influencing the intensity and duration of the immune response. Alterations in L-selectin expression or function have been implicated in various inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, highlighting the importance of this gene in human health and disease.
