The alliance will focus on cell adhesion molecules, an area of intense scientific interest.

However, the final, as yet small, family of cell adhesion molecules bind to carbohydrates.

Cell adhesion molecules allow cells to identify each other and interact.

Essentially, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings.

The endothelial cell adhesion molecules seem to belong to two structural families.

Many different cell adhesion molecules have been described.

The fusion requires the regulation of cell adhesion molecules.

Selectins are part of the broader family of cell adhesion molecules.

CHL1 is a cell adhesion molecule closely related to the L1.

Cell adhesion molecules involved in the process are first hydrolyzed by extracellular enzymes.

MAM domains have been identified in a variety of cell adhesion molecules.

Selectins are cell adhesion molecules that play and important role in the initiation of inflammatory processes.

Adherens junctions are made of cell adhesion molecules from the cadherin family.

But researchers hope that if cell adhesion molecules are understood, the exiting process can be prevented and inflammation reduced.

This suggests a possible tumour suppressor function for this cell adhesion molecule.

CD164 functions as a cell adhesion molecule.

The L1 family is a family of cell adhesion molecules that includes four different L1-like proteins.

In addition to inflammations, cell adhesion molecules might play roles in other diseases, like the spread of cancer around the body.

Cell adhesion molecule 1 has been shown to interact with EPB41L3.

He further proposed that a difference in level of cell adhesion molecules expression between two cell types was sufficient to drive the separation.

Lymphocyte homing receptors are cell adhesion molecules which target addressins.

CD24 is a cell adhesion molecule.

Scientists believe that drugs that interfere with the cell adhesion molecules could block such unwanted inflammations.

Mesenchymal condensation is mediated by extracellular matrix and cell adhesion molecules.

Natalizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody against the cell adhesion molecule α4-integrin.
