Modulation of Cellular Adhesion by Glycoengineering [PDF]
Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2010 Aberrant glycosylation of lipid and protein molecules on cellular surfaces is responsible for many of the pathophysiological events in tumor progression and metastasis. Sialic acids in particular, are overexpressed on the glycocalyx of malignant tumor cells and sialic acid-mediated cell adhesion is required for metastasis.

Insights into cellular adhesion: reducing agent and thiol blocker treatments [PDF]
, 2022 Expected trace or low-level amounts of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) swabbed or cut from evidence prove crucial in the removal of as much of that DNA as possible from the substrate in order to obtain a probative profile.

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.

Cellular Adhesion Molecules in Neurology [PDF]
Canadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 1997 ABSTRACT:The study of cellular adhesion molecules offers crucial understanding of cellular interactions. Their name implies an underestimation of their function, as intercellular glue. In fact, they play vital roles in tissue development and intra- and intercellular signaling.
