Cell adhesion molecules and the bronchial epithelium [PDF]
We thank Professor David Garrod, Dr.Tom Fleming, Dr. Dorian Haskard, and Professor Tak Lee for supplying some of the antibodies used in our studies.The bronchial epithelium is the major barrier between the host and the provoking antigens in bronchial ...

Synaptic Cell Adhesion Molecules in Alzheimer’s Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative brain disorder associated with the loss of synapses between neurons in the brain. Synaptic cell adhesion molecules are cell surface glycoproteins which are expressed at the synaptic plasma membranes of ...

Cadherins, Selectins, and Integrins in CAM-DR in Leukemia
The interaction between leukemia cells and the bone microenvironment is known to provide drug resistance in leukemia cells. This phenomenon, called cell adhesion-mediated drug resistance (CAM-DR), has been demonstrated in many subsets of leukemia ...

Leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels and lung injury following systemic complement activation in rabbits [PDF]
Inflammatory reactions are associated with sequestration of leukocytes in the lung. Complement activation leads to accumulation of leukocytes in alveolar septa and alveoli, to lung edema and hemorrhage.

Alterations in Circulating Adhesion Molecules in Acute Myocardial Infarction before and after Thrombolysis with Streptokinase [PDF]
Introduction: The role of adhesion molecules in the development and progression of coronary atherosclerosis is inevitable. It is not clear yet whether these molecules increase or decrease in level after thrombolytic therapy.

Circulating adhesion molecules and arterial stiffness [PDF]
Aim: VCAM-1 and ICAM-1 are two important members of the immunoglobulin gene superfamily of adhesion molecules, and their potential role as biomarkers of diagnosis, severity and prognosis of cardiovascular disease has been investigated in a number of ...

Acoustic Force-Based Cell–Matrix Avidity Measurement in High Throughput
Cancer cells interacting with the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the tumor microenvironment is pivotal for tumorigenesis, invasion, and metastasis. Cell–ECM adhesion has been intensively studied in cancer biology in the past decades to understand the ...

Cell Adhesion Molecules—Update [PDF]
Cell adhesion molecules are glycoproteins expressed on the cell surface and play an important role in inflammatory as well as neoplastic diseases. There are four main groups: the integrin family, the immunoglobulin superfamily, selectins, and cadherins. The integrin family has eight subfamilies, designated as β1, through β8.

Membrane adhesion and domain formation
We review theoretical results for the adhesion-induced phase behavior of biomembranes. The focus is on models in which the membranes are represented as discretized elastic sheets with embedded adhesion molecules. We present several mechanism that lead to
