Mechano-transduction: from molecules to tissues. [PDF]
, 2014 External forces play complex roles in cell organization, fate, and homeostasis. Changes in these forces, or how cells respond to them, can result in abnormal embryonic development and diseases in adults.

The influence of tobacco smoking on adhesion molecule profiles
Tobacco Induced Diseases, 2002 Sequential interactions between several adhesion molecules and their ligands regulate lymphocyte circulation and leukocyte recruitment to inflammatory foci. Adhesion molecules are, therefore, central and critical components of the immune and inflammatory

Targeting selectins and selectin ligands in inflammation and cancer [PDF]
Expert Opinion on Therapeutic Targets, 2007 Inflammation and cancer metastasis are associated with extravasation of leukocytes or tumor cells from blood into tissue. Such movement is believed to follow a coordinated and sequential molecular cascade initiated, in part, by the three members of the selectin family of carbohydrate-binding proteins: E-selectin (CD62E), L-selectin (CD62L) and P ...

Skap2 is required for β2 integrin-mediated neutrophil recruitment and functions. [PDF]
, 2017 Integrin activation is required for neutrophil functions. Impaired integrin activation on neutrophils is the hallmark of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) syndrome in humans, characterized by impaired leukocyte recruitment and recurrent infections. The

Leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels and lung injury following systemic complement activation in rabbits [PDF]
, 1999 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.

Multivalent interaction and selectivities in selectin binding of functionalized gold colloids decorated with carbohydrate mimetics [PDF]
, 2011 Colloidal gold particles with functionalized organic shells were applied as novel selectin binders. The ligand shell was terminated with different monocyclic carbohydrate mimetics as simplified analogs of the sLe(x) unit found in biological selectin ...
