## Abstract Junctional adhesion molecule‐A (JAM‐A) is an adhesive protein expressed in endothelial cells, epithelial cells, platelets, and some leukocytes. JAM‐A localizes to the tight junctions between contacting endothelial and epithelial cells, where it contributes to cell–cell adhesion and to t
