PECAM-1 engagement counteracts ICAM-1-induced signaling in brain vascular endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Interactions between leukocytes and vascular endothelial cells are mediated by a complex set of membrane adhesion molecules which transduce bi-directional signals in both cell types.

Clinical Practice Guideline for Evaluation and Management of Peripheral Nervous System Manifestations in Sjögren's Disease

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Sjögren's disease is an autoimmune disorder that can impact multiple organ systems, including the peripheral nervous system (PNS). PNS manifestations, which can exist concurrently, include mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, and autonomic nervous system neuropathies. To help patients and providers in the decision‐making process, we developed

Neural cell adhesion molecule in human serum. Increased levels in dementia of the Alzheimer type

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2004
Memory impairment is a process associated with alterations in neuronal plasticity, synapses formation, and stabilization. As the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) plays a key role in synaptic bond stabilization, we analyzed the usefulness of soluble ...

Activity of nAChRs containing α9 subunits modulates synapse stabilization via bidirectional signaling programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although the synaptogenic program for cholinergic synapses of the neuromuscular junction is well known, little is known of the identity or dynamic expression patterns of proteins involved in non-neuromuscular nicotinic synapse development.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Expression of neural cell adhesion molecule in renal cell carcinoma

open access: yesActa chirurgica Iugoslavica, 2012
Neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) is important for cell migration and it could be expressed in some renal cell carcinoma (RCC). In recent decades, the incidence of RCC has been steadily rising by 2-4% each year. In this study NCAM expression and correlation with nuclear grade in different RCC were analyzed. We analyzed NCAM expression on
