MAdCAM-1 (mucosal cell-adhesion molecule-1) is a mucosal addressin recognized by lymphocyte surface proteins L-selectin and VLA-4, enabling specific homing to mucosal tissues.
MAdCAM-1 (molécula de adhesión celular mucosial-1) es una molécula de adhesión en la mucosa que es reconocida por las proteínas de superficie de los linfocitos L-selectina y VLA-4, permitiendo el homing específico a tejidos mucosales.
