On the adhesion of vesicles by cell adhesion molecules
This paper gives a detailed analysis of experiments on the kinetics of aggregation of lipid vesicles containing neural cell adhesion molecules (N-CAM). An explanation for the dependence of the "initial aggregation rate," kagg, on the square of the vesicle concentration is given, accounting both for Brownian motion of the vesicles and shear effects.

Synaptic Cell Adhesion Molecules in Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative brain disorder associated with the loss of synapses between neurons in the brain. Synaptic cell adhesion molecules are cell surface glycoproteins which are expressed at the synaptic plasma membranes of ...

Junctional Adhesion Molecules (JAMs): The JAM-Integrin Connection
Junctional adhesion molecules (JAMs) are cell surface adhesion receptors of the immunoglobulin superfamily. JAMs are involved in a variety of biological processes both in the adult organism but also during development.

Desmogleins and Desmocollins as Adhesive Molecules [PDF]
Following the identification of desmoglein and desmocollins as the transmembrane components of the desmosome, sequence analysis re vealed that they are members of the cadherin family of cell–cell adhesion molecules. Cadherins are characterized by the presence of conserved extracellular calcium-binding motifs.
