Animal lectins as cell adhesion molecules [PDF]

, 1998
Protein-carbohydrate interaction is exploited in cell adhesion mechanisms besides the recognition of peptide motifs. The sugar code thus significantly contributes to the intriguing specificity of cellular selection of binding partners.

Irisin promotes intestinal epithelial cell proliferation via Wnt/β-catenin and focal adhesion kinase signaling pathways

Scientific Reports
The regeneration of epithelia is crucial for maintaining intestinal homeostasis. Irisin is an exercise-induced hormone originally found to be secreted by skeletal muscles, thereby regulating energy metabolism.

Hydroxyapatite promotes superior adhesion and proliferation of telomerase transformed keratocytes in comparison with inert plastic skirt materials used in leading contemporary keratoprostheses [PDF]

, 2005
Aim: Published clinical series suggest the osteoodontokeratoprosthesis (OOKP) may have a lower extrusion rate than current synthetic keratoprostheses. The OOKP is anchored in the eye wall by autologous tooth.

The role of cell-cell adhesion in wound healing

, 2006
We present a stochastic model which describes fronts of cells invading a wound. In the model cells can move, proliferate, and experience cell-cell adhesion.

Melanoma-associated adhesion molecule MUC18/MCAM (CD146) and transcriptional regulator Mader in normal human CNS [PDF]

, 1998
The proteins MUC18 and Mader have been identified as markers of tumor progression in melanoma cells, MUC18, also known as MCAM (melanoma cell adhesion molecule) and as CD146 (endothelial antigen), is a cell adhesion molecule belonging to the ...

High-resolution snapshots of the talin auto-inhibitory states suggest roles in cell adhesion and signaling

Nature Communications
Talin regulates crucial cellular functions, including cell adhesion and motility, and affects human diseases. Triggered by mechanical forces, talin plays crucial roles in facilitating the formation of focal adhesions and recruiting essential focal ...

CD44: A Multifunctional Cell Surface Adhesion Receptor Is a Regulator of Progression and Metastasis of Cancer Cells

Front. Cell Dev. Biol., 2017
CD44 is a cell surface adhesion receptor that is highly expressed in many cancers and regulates metastasis via recruitment of CD44 to the cell surface.
