The influence of protein adsorption on interactions of cultured human endothelial cells with polymers [PDF]
, 1987 A systematic study of the effects of polymer surface properties on the interaction with human endothelial cells (HEC) may lead to the development of small-diameter vascular grafts.

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2012 Chemical synapses are asymmetric intercellular junctions that mediate synaptic transmission. Synaptic junctions are organized by trans-synaptic cell adhesion molecules bridging the synaptic cleft. Synaptic cell adhesion molecules not only connect pre- and postsynaptic compartments, but also mediate trans-synaptic recognition and signaling processes ...

Cell adhesion in cancer: Beyond the migration of single cells
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2020 Homeostasis in healthy tissues strongly relies on cell-to-cell adhesion and cell-to-extracellular matrix interactions. For instance, normal epithelial cells maintain tissue structure by adhering to each other and to the extracellular matrix. The proteins

Modelling adhesion-independent cell migration [PDF]
, 2020 A two-dimensional mathematical model for cells migrating without adhesion capabilities is presented and analyzed. Cells are represented by their cortex, which is modelled as an elastic curve, subject to an internal pressure force.

Targeted remodeling of breast cancer and immune cell homing niches by exosomal integrins
Diagnostic Pathology, 2020 Exosomes represent an important subset of extracellular vesicles involved in inter-cellular communications in health and diseases. Exosomes secreted from cancer and immune cells travel to the specific tissues containing homing niches.

Conformational flexibility determines the Nf2/merlin tumor suppressor functions
Matrix Biology Plus, 2021 The Neurofibromatosis type 2 gene encodes the Nf2/merlin tumor suppressor protein that is responsible for the regulation of cell proliferation. Once activated, Nf2/merlin modulates adhesive signaling pathways and thereby inhibits cell growth.

Elevated Expression of Serum Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecules in COVID-19 Patients
Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2020 In a retrospective study of 39 COVID-19 patients and 32 control participants in China, we collected clinical data and examined the expression of endothelial cell adhesion molecules by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.
