Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecules- (un)Attainable Targets for Nanomedicines
Endothelial cell adhesion molecules have long been proposed as promising targets in many pathologies. Despite promising preclinical data, several efforts to develop small molecule inhibitors or monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against cell adhesion molecules

Cell Adhesion Molecules in Normal Skin and Melanoma
Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) of the cadherin, integrin, immunoglobulin, and selectin protein families are indispensable for the formation and maintenance of multicellular tissues, especially epithelia.

Sharpin suppresses β1-integrin activation by complexing with the β1 tail and kindlin-1
Background Previously sharpin has been identified as an endogenous inhibitor of β1-integrin activation by directly binding to a conserved region in the cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of the integrin β1-associated α subunits. Methods Here we employed biochemical

The importance of selected cell adhesion molecules in thyroid cancer
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumour of the endocrine system. It accounts for ca. 2% of all malignant tumours in the world, ranking it 16th in the overall classification. Its most common histology type is the papillary carcinoma originating

Re: Role of Telomeres and Telomerase in Cancer
The most important difference between cancer and normall cells is the ability to continuous proliferation. This activation works due to telomeres and telomerase enzyme.

Cell adhesion molecules in the pathogenesis of the schizophrenia [PDF]
The causes of schizophrenia remain obscure and complex to identify. Alterations in dopaminergic and serotonergic neurotransmission are, to date, the primary pharmacological targets in treatment.

On the adhesion of vesicles by cell adhesion molecules
This paper gives a detailed analysis of experiments on the kinetics of aggregation of lipid vesicles containing neural cell adhesion molecules (N-CAM). An explanation for the dependence of the "initial aggregation rate," kagg, on the square of the vesicle concentration is given, accounting both for Brownian motion of the vesicles and shear effects.
