https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.13404
Cell surface glycoprotein on lymphocytes and other leukocytes that mediates adhesion to specialized blood vessels, the high endothelial venules.
Note: Several different classes of lymphocyte homing receptors have been identified, and they appear to bind to different surface molecules (addressins) on high endothelial venules in different tissues.
