CD45: An Emerging Role as a Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Required for Lymphocyte Activation and Development

TL;DR: Evidence from genetic experiments indicates that CD45 plays a pivotal role in antigen-stimulated proliferation of T lymphocytes and in thymic development, and analysis of CD45 isoform expression has revealed a hitherto unrecognized plasticity in isoform usage by T cells and other leukocytes, adding to the regulatory complexity ofisoform expression.

Endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule 1: an inducible receptor for neutrophils related to complement regulatory proteins and lectins

TL;DR: Endothelial leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (ELAM-1), a cell surface glycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium, mediates the adhesion of blood neutrophils and may be a member of a nascent gene family of cell surface molecules involved in the regulation of inflammatory and immunological events at the interface of vessel wall and blood.
