The serum levels of soluble P-selectin (sP-selectin), soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin), and soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1) were determined by sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in 59 RA patients and 36 healthy controls. This evidence concerns the gene ICAM1 and rheumatoid arthritis.
