A tissue-specific endothelial cell molecule involved in lymphocyte homing.
Nature. 1988; (6151): 41-6
An endothelial cell surface molecule that is selectively expressed in mucosal organs is required for lymphocyte homing to mucosal lymphoid tissues. This 'vascular addressin' appears to function as a tissue-specific marker or address signal for recognition by lymphocytes circulating in the blood.
