Cell adhesion and angiogenesis
Trends in Cell Biology, 1996Cell-adhesion mechanisms play a fundamental role during angiogenesis. This article summarizes the role of various cell-adhesive events in blood vessel formation, including general aspects of cell-matrix and cell-cell interactions. In particular, the authors discuss the role of integrin alphavbeta3 in vascular cell survival, proliferation and invasion ...

A major feature in Dictyostelium development is the transition from the unicellular to the multicellular stage, a process brought about by chemotaxis and cell-cell adhesion. Growth-phase cells are weakly cohesive, whereas aggregation-competent cells adhere strongly to each other.

Cell adhesion or conjugate formation between T lymphocytes and other cells is an important early step in the generation of the immune response. Although the antigen-specific T cell receptor confers antigen recognition and specificity, a number of other molecules expressed on the T cell surface are involved in the regulation of lymphocyte adhesion.

This chapter deals with the adhesion of cells, especially the dependence on elasticity. First, we will discuss cell adhesion phenomena starting from the biological foundations. Then, we study artificial model systems to show how the elastic modulus and geometry affect cell adhesion and cause cell differentiation.

Cell–cell adhesion and signalling
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2002Signalling pathways activated by Rho small GTPases have recently been identified that coordinate junction assembly, stability and function, as well as interactions of adhesive complexes with the underlying cortical cytoskeleton. Particularly exciting is the interplay between adherens junctions, activation of Rho proteins and the dynamics of microtubule,

Cell adhesion is a basic property of animal cells, but is also present in many other eukaryotes. Did cell adhesion systems arise independently in different eukaryotic groups, or do they share common origins? Recent results show that cell adhesion proteins related to cadherin, IgG-like CAM and C-type lectin are present both in sponges, the most distant ...

Materials for enhancing cell adhesion by immobilization of cell‐adhesive peptide [PDF]
AbstractMaterials to enhance cell adhesion were synthesized by surface integration of peptide, Arg‐Gly‐Asp‐Ser(RGDS), which is an active‐site sequence of cell‐adhesive proteins. Polystyrene film was glowdischarged and graft‐copolymerized with acrylic acid.

Now that transmembrane signaling through primary cell-matrix receptors, integrins, is being elucidated, attention is turning to how integrin-ligand interactions can be modulated. Syndecans are transmembrane proteoglycans implicated as coreceptors in a variety of physiological processes, including cell adhesion, migration, response to growth factors ...

Control of three-dimensional cell adhesion by the chirality of nanofibers in hydrogels.
Angewandte Chemie, 2014In the three-dimensional (3D) extracellular matrix (ECM), the influence of nanofiber chirality on cell behavior is very important; the helical nanofibrous structure is closely related to the relevant biological events.

It has been proposed that cell-cell recognition occurs by means of local cell surface modulation of a small number of proteins rather than by expression of large numbers of different cell surface markers. Several different cell adhesion molecules (CAM's) have now been found in a number of vertebrate species in different tissues such as ...
