E-selectin also known as CD62 antigen-like family member E (CD62E) endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule 1 (ELAM-1) or leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion molecule 2 (LECAM2) is a cell adhesion molecule expressed only on endothelial cells activated by cytokines. Like other selectins it plays an important part in inflammation. In humans E-selectin is encoded by the SELE gene.
