Summary: The bone marrow niche plays a critical role in controlling the fate of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) by integrating intrinsic and extrinsic signals. However, the molecular events in the HSC niche remain to be investigated. Here, we report that

Comprehensive analysis of lymph node stroma-expressed Ig superfamily members reveals redundant and nonredundant roles for ICAM-1, ICAM-2, and VCAM-1 in lymphocyte homing [PDF]
Although it is well established that stromal intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), ICAM-2, and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) mediate lymphocyte recruitment into peripheral lymph nodes (PLNs), their precise contributions to the ...

Failure to block adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes to ICAM-1 with soluble ICAM-1 [PDF]
The adhesion of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes is thought to play a central role in the pathogenesis of severe malaria. ICAM-1 has been identified as one of the host receptors for parasitized erythrocytes and has been implicated as being involved in progression to cerebral malaria.

β2 integrin-mediated crawling on endothelial ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 is a prerequisite for transcellular neutrophil diapedesis across the inflamed blood-brain barrier [PDF]
In acute neuroinflammatory states such as meningitis, neutrophils cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and contribute to pathological alterations of cerebral function. The mechanisms that govern neutrophil migration across the BBB are ill defined.

Background The upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) on the endothelium of blood vessels in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli is of major importance for the regulation of local inflammation in cardiovascular diseases such as ...

ICAM‐1‐targeted nanocarriers attenuate endothelial release of soluble ICAM‐1, an inflammatory regulator [PDF]
AbstractTargeting of drug nanocarriers (NCs) to intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1), an endothelial‐surface protein overexpressed in many pathologies, has shown promise for therapeutic delivery into and across this lining. However, due to the role of ICAM‐1 in inflammation, the effects of targeting this receptor need investigation.

Cytoadherence and virulence - the case of Plasmodium knowlesi malaria. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Cytoadherence of infected red blood cells to brain endothelium is causally implicated in malarial coma, one of the severe manifestations of falciparum malaria.

Characterization of the murine Icam-1 gene
Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54) is a cell adhesion molecule that interacts with the leukocyte beta 2 integrins, LFA-1 and Mac-1. Murine inflammatory models are being utilized increasingly to define the role that ICAM-1 induction plays in the initiation of inflammation. We have isolated murine genomic clones that contain the Icam-1 gene

Serum levels of s-TM s-ICAM-1 and s-VCAM-1 were detected to evaluate endothelial injury in vivo. [PDF]
Values are means ± SD (n = 3). (A) The concentration of s-TM increased about 3 times in EMPs treated group compared with the normal control group. (B) The level of s-VCAM-1 was ng/ml in EMPs treated group and ng/ml in normal control group.
