Background: VCAM-1/CD106

VCAM-1 (Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1; CD106) is a transmembrane molecule that mediates the adhesion of immune cells to the vascular endothelium during inflammation. It binds to several integrins including alpha4/beta1 (VLA-4), alpha4/beta7, alpha9/beta1, and alphaD/beta2. It is expressed constitutively in the bone marrow where it regulates T cell, B cell, and hematopoietic progenitor cell migration. A soluble form VCAM-1 can promote monocyte chemotaxis.
