Cell Adhesion Molecules - Metabolism
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Cell Adhesion Molecules'Surface ligands, usually glycoproteins, that mediate cell-to-cell adhesion. Their functions include the assembly and interconnection of various vertebrate systems, as well as maintenance of tissue integration, wound healing, morphogenic movements, cellular migrations, and metastasis. Common names: Cell Adhesion Molecules; Adhesion Molecules, Cell; Molecules, Cell Adhesion; Leukocyte Adhesion Molecules; Adhesion Molecules, Leukocyte; Molecules, Leukocyte Adhesion; Saccharide-Mediated Cell Adhesion Molecules; Saccharide Mediated Cell Adhesion Molecules; Intercellular Adhesion Molecules |

Phenotypic diversity of Flo protein family-mediated adhesion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
9 Dec 2009 
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome encodes a Flo (flocculin) adhesin family responsible for cell-cell and cell-surface adherence. In commonly used laboratory strains, these FLO genes are transcriptionally silent, because of a nonsense mutation in ... Read more...
29 Nov 2009 Up to date, the nature of the sepsis-induced vascular leakage is understood only partially, which limits pharmacological approaches for its management. Here we studied the protective effect of cAMP using endotoxin-induced hyperpermeability as a ... Read more...
Disruption of the axon initial segment cytoskeleton is a new mechanism for neuronal injury.
19 Oct 2009 Many factors contribute to nervous system dysfunction and failure to regenerate after injury or disease. Here, we describe a previously unrecognized mechanism for nervous system injury. We show that neuronal injury causes rapid, irreversible, and ... Read more...
