Description
CD31 (PECAM-1) is platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1, serves as the endothelial cell-specific receptor of clostridium perfringens b-Toxin (CPB). CD31 is also an ER-MP12 antigen, acts as a linker between mechanical stress, metabolism and inflammation. CD31 peptide is able to sustain phosphorylation of the CD31 ITIM686 and of SHP2 and to inhibit TCR-induced T-cell activation[1]-[5]
