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.

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 ...

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

DNAM-1 and the TIGIT/PVRIG/TACTILE Axis: Novel Immune Checkpoints for Natural Killer Cell-Based Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]
Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune response characterized by their role in the destruction of tumor cells. Activation of NK cells depend on a fine balance between activating and inhibitory signals mediated by different ...

Increasing throughput of AFM-based single cell adhesion measurements through multisubstrate surfaces
Mammalian cells regulate adhesion by expressing and regulating a diverse array of cell adhesion molecules on their cell surfaces. Since different cell types express distinct sets of cell adhesion molecules, substrate-specific adhesion is cell type- and ...
