Syndecans and cell adhesion

2001
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 ...

Cell adhesion and angiogenesis

Trends in Cell Biology, 1996
Cell-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 prehistory of cell adhesion

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2004
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 ...

Assaying Cell–Cell Adhesion

2006
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.

Retinoids and cell adhesion

1990
Publisher Summary This chapter summarizes the salient methodologies and pertinent data of the adhesive effects of retinoic acid and other retinoids on fibroblastic cell lines. The chapter shows the effect of different concentrations of retinoic acid on the detachment of BALB/3TI2 cells.

Cell Adhesion Molecules

The American Journal of Dermatopathology, 1990
Recently it has become recognized that cell adhesion is critical in many different cellular functions. The proteins involved in the cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions are known as cell adhesion molecules (CAMs). This article reviews some of the most important CAMs and emphasizes their importance in dermatology and in skin diseases.

Cell Adhesion Molecules

Science, 1983
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 ...

Adhesion in cell migration

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1995
Adhesive interactions play a central role in cell migration. The regulation of these interactions requires the coordination of a multiplicity of signals, both spatially and temporally. The role of the integrin family has received considerable recent attention. Progress has been made in the elucidation of the mechanisms by which growth factors and other

Cell activation and adhesion

Journal of Cell Science, 1987
ABSTRACT It has long been known that the adhesiveness of leucocytes and blood platelets can be changed from a state of non-adhesion to very strong adhesion to each other, and to many surfaces, in a very short time. The agents that produce such changes are prostaglandins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes (see for example, Hoover et al. 1984),

The measurement of cell adhesion

Experimental Cell Research, 1961
Abstract Some of the theoretical physical aspects of the measurement of cell adhesion by distractive techniques have been discussed. It is suggested that when adherends are separated by distraction, the tensile strengths of the adherend surfaces may be measured instead of the adhesive forces holding them together.
