Elevated serum levels of soluble CD146 in patients with systemic sclerosis
Abstract
CD146, a transmembrane glycoprotein member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, acts as an adhesion molecule that helps maintain the cell monolayer. Human endothelial cells expressing CD146 are involved in angiogenesis and inflammation. Recently, we developed a sandwich ELISA for detecting soluble CD146 (sCD146) in human serum specimens. The aim of this study is to determine serum levels of sCD146 in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and to...
