PECAM-1 (CD31)

Post by admin »

Platelet Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 complex (PECAM-1) [CD31]

Serum PECAM-1 levels are significantly higher in COVID-19 patients than in healthy controls, and also higher than in asymptomatic carriers, and are positively correlated with disease severity (Li et al., 2021; Seery et al., 2021).

"PECAM-... decreased significantly after Spike treatment in control and to a greater extent, in diabetic cells...In conclusion, these experiments reveal that Spike-induced degradation of endothelial junctional proteins affects endothelial barrier function and is the likely cause of vascular damage observed in COVID-19 affected individuals."

"AlF4-treatment of FLAG-tagged PECAM1-transfected HEK293 cells caused a reduction (approximately 30%) in the level of GRq detected in anti-FLAG immunoprecipitated fractions (Figure 6), indicating that activation of G protein R subunits causes partial dissociation of GRq from the PECAM-1 complex."

"It is becoming increasingly evident that the cell-cell junction is a major signaling center. Here we show that the Galphaq/11 subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins forms a complex with platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1), a junctional protein that has been shown to be involved in mechanosignaling in endothelial cells."
