Dual implication of endothelial adhesion molecules in tumor progression and cancer immunity [PDF]
Cell Adhesion & MigrationAdhesion molecules are proteins expressed at the surface of various cell types. Their main contribution to immunity is to allow the infiltration of immune cells in an inflamed site.

Circulating LPS from gut microbiota leverages stenosis-induced deep vein thrombosis in mice
Thrombosis Journal, 2023 Objective and design An accumulating body of evidence has shown that gut microbiota is involved in regulating inflammation; however, it remains undetermined if and how gut microbiota plays an important role in modulating deep venous thrombosis (DVT ...

Adhesion molecules: a way to understand lupus
Rheumatology, 2022 Systemic lupus erythematosus is a connective disease in which all vitally important organs may be affected. The etiology of the disease is largely unknown and almost all immunological mechanisms have been proposed as the pathophysiological background of ...

Mycophenolate mofetil inhibits lymphocyte binding and the upregulation of adhesion molecules in acute rejection of rat kidney allografts. [PDF]
, 1996 Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) interacts with purine metabolism and possibly with the expression of adhesion molecules. In the present study, we analysed the expression of these molecules in transplanted kidney allografts treated with RS LBNF1 kidneys were ...

Cell Adhesion Molecules in Fibrotic Diseases
Biomedicines, 2023 Mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis remain incompletely understood. Emerging evidence suggests that cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are critical in fibrotic progression in many organs, including lung, kidney, skin, and liver.

Sharpin suppresses β1-integrin activation by complexing with the β1 tail and kindlin-1
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2019 Background Previously sharpin has been identified as an endogenous inhibitor of β1-integrin activation by directly binding to a conserved region in the cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of the integrin β1-associated α subunits. Methods Here we employed biochemical

Identification and characterization of cell adhesion molecules controlling synapse stability [PDF]
, 2012 Neuronal circuits form the basis of a functional nervous system to process and integrate information and to react to environmental cues. The formation of functional synaptic connections between neurons is essential for the establishment of these circuits.

VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 serum levels as markers of relapse in visceral leishmaniasis
Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2017 Objectives-Methods. Visceral leishmaniasis (VL) is characterized by chronicity and relapses despite efficacious treatment. Acute and chronic inflammatory processes and concomitant disturbances in cell adhesion characterize the pathogenesis of the disease.
