Inhibition of gap junction and adherens junction assembly by connexin and A-CAM antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We examined the roles of the extracellular domains of a gap junction protein and a cell adhesion molecule in gap junction and adherens junction formation by altering cell interactions with antibody Fab fragments.

The role of cellular adhesion molecules in virus attachment and entry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses must traverse the host-cell plasma membrane to initiate infection. This presents a formidable barrier, which they have evolved diverse strategies to overcome.

Nanoroughness, Surface Chemistry and Drug Delivery Control by Atmospheric Plasma Jet on Implantable Devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Implantable devices need specific tailored surface morphologies and chemistries to interact with the living systems or to actively induce a biological response also by the release of drugs or proteins.

Cell adhesion molecules and hyaluronic acid as markers of inflammation, fibrosis and response to antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis C patients

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 2001
Objective: Cell adhesion molecules (intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1)) and hyaluronic acid, markers of inflammation and fibrosis were monitored in hepatitis C patients to determine whether changes in ...

Expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in endocrine cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
We examined the expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule NCAM in a number of endocrine tissues of adult rat and in an endocrine tumor cell line. NCAM was found by immunoelectron microscopy to be present on the surface of all endocrine cells in the

Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 Is a Key Adhesion Molecule in Melanoma Cell Adhesion to the Leptomeninges [PDF]

open access: yesLaboratory Investigation, 2002
Leptomeningeal metastases occur in up to 8% of patients with systemic malignancies and have a poor prognosis. A better understanding of the pathophysiologic processes underlying leptomeningeal metastases is needed for more effective treatment strategies.

The Characterization of Haemaglutinin Protein of Vili Vibrio alginolyticus as Adhesion Molecule on Epithelial Cells Receptor of Humpback Grouper (Cromileptes altivelis)

open access: yesJurnal Kedokteran Hewan, 2007
Vibriosis was a crucial problem and a primer infection causing mortality of humpback grouper. Virulence factor of vibrio, such as vili, is an adhesion molecule protein based on haemaglutination test to blood serum of humpback grouper.

Effects of Helicobacter pylori Water Extract on Expression of Endothelial Adhesion Molecules

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2004
The present study investigated whether Helicobacter pylori water extract induces the upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 and E-selectin on human umbilical vein endothelial cells, using an ELISA. The nature

Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule 1, Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1, and Cluster of Differentiation 146 Levels in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes with Complications [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrinology and Metabolism, 2017
BackgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a multisystemic, chronic disease accompanied by microvascular complications involving various complicated mechanisms. Intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1), and

Cell Adhesion Molecules and the Bronchial Epithelium [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Review of Respiratory Disease, 1993
Abstract The bronchial epithelium is the major barrier between the host and the provoking antigens in bronchial asthma. Recent studies have indicated that the epithelium is a truly stratified structure, with the superficial columnar cells depending on the underlying basal cells for anchorage.
