Function | Important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with integrin alpha-4/beta-1 (ITGA4/ITGB1) on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/ITGA4/ITGB1 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation. |
Subcellular Location | Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed on inflamed vascular endothelium, as well as on macrophage-like and dendritic cell types in both normal and inflamed tissue. |
Top Pathways | Leukocyte transendothelial migration, Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), Malaria, African trypanosomiasis, HTLV-I infection |
