== Nomenclature ==

Addressin is a lesser-used term to describe the group of adhesion molecules that are involved with lymphocyte homing, commonly found at high-endothelial venules (HEVs) where lymphocytes exit the blood and enter the lymph node.<ref name=":0">{{cite journal | vauthors = Bevilacqua MP | title = Endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecules | journal = Annual Review of Immunology | volume = 11 | issue = 1 | pages = 767–804 | date = 1993-04-01 | pmid = 8476577 | doi = 10.1146/annurev.iy.11.040193.004003 }}</ref><ref name=":1">{{cite book| vauthors = Punt J |title=Kuby immunology|date=2019|others=Sharon A.

== Function ==

In terms of migration, MAdCAM-1 is selectively expressed on mucosal endothelial cells, driving memory T-cell re-circulation through mucosal tissues. In contrast, and indeed the main difference between the two molecules, ICAM molecules are involved with naïve T-cell re-circulation. Whereas MAdCAM-1 is selectively expressed, ICAM is broadly expressed on inflamed endothelium.

== Peripheral node addressins == Peripheral node addressins (PNAd) are carbohydrate residues that are lymphocyte homing receptor ligands that are expressed on the HEVs of peripheral lymph nodes.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Picker LJ, Butcher EC | title = Physiological and molecular mechanisms of lymphocyte homing | journal = Annual Review of Immunology | volume = 10 | issue = 1 | pages = 561–91 | date = 1992-04-01 | pmid = 1590996 | doi = 10.1146/annurev.iy.10.040192.003021 }}</ref> These proteins collectively bind to L-selectin to guide lymphocytes such as mature naïve B and T cells into the lymph node.<ref name=":2" /><ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Lechleitner S, Kunstfeld R, Messeritsch-Fanta C, Wolff K, Petzelbauer P | title = Peripheral lymph node addressins are expressed on skin endothelial cells | journal = The Journal of Investigative Dermatology | volume = 113 | issue = 3 | pages = 410–4 | date = September 1999 | pmid = 10469342 | doi = 10.1046/j.1523-1747.1999.00696.x | doi-access = free }}</ref><ref name=":3">{{cite journal | vauthors = Randall TD, Carragher DM, Rangel-Moreno J | title = Development of secondary lymphoid organs | journal = Annual Review of Immunology | volume = 26 | issue = 1 | pages = 627–50 | date = 2008-03-27 | pmid = 18370924 | pmc = 2590644 | doi = 10.1146/annurev.immunol.26.021607.090257 }}</ref> During the development of secondary lymphoid organs, PNAd expression is upregulated following the upregulation and subsequent downregulation of MAdCAM-1 on HEVs.<ref name=":3" /> PNAd expression, as well as the expression of MAdCAM-1, is dependent on lymphotoxin signaling in the HEVs of lymph nodes.<ref name=":3" />

== Clinical significance == In inflammatory bowel diseases, MAdCAM-1 can be overexpressed on the endothelial cells of intestinal mucosa and gut-associated lymphoid tissue, leading to excessive inflammation in the gut.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Arihiro S, Ohtani H, Suzuki M, Murata M, Ejima C, Oki M, Kinouchi Y, Fukushima K, Sasaki I, Nakamura S, Matsumoto T, Torii A, Toda G, Nagura H | display-authors = 6 | title = Differential expression of mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease | journal = Pathology International | volume = 52 | issue = 5–6 | pages = 367–74 | date = 2002 | pmid = 12100519 | doi = 10.1046/j.1440-1827.2002.01365.x | s2cid = 38219521 }}</ref> A potential therapeutic target to manage these diseases could be the MAdCAM-1 molecules that are expressed on these cells and bring in lymphocytes.
