“…Both E-and P-selectin (CD62E and CD62P, respectively) are expressed on RA synovial endothelium (15,16,20,21); however, only the expression of E-selectin, and not P-selectin, is increased in RA compared with osteoarthritis or normal synovium (lS,16). ICAM-1 is widely expressed in the synovia1 membrane of R A patients, including the vascular endothelium, synovial lining macrophages, and fibroblasts, as well as infiltrating leukocytes, on which it is expressed at higher levels in RA than in normal synovium (15,17,(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27).…”
