basic FUNCTION
  • CD99 and CD99L2 act independently of PECAM1 in leukocyte extravasation and cooperate in an independent way to help neutrophils overcome the endothelial basement membrane
  • is an essential endothelial Ag for leukocyte extravasation, which does not require homophilic interactions with CD99L2 on leukocytes
  • play likely a role in leukocyte extravasation under various inflammatory conditions
  • CELLULAR PROCESS

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • mice lacking CD99L2 had a defective inflammatory response in the thioglycollate peritonitis model with a greater than 80p100 block in neutrophil infiltration and a nearly complete block in monocyte emigration into the peritoneal cavity
