Signal transduction by cell adhesion receptors and the cytoskeleton: functions of integrins, cadherins, selectins, and immunoglobulin-superfamily members. Recent advances have provided insights into mechanisms underlying the ability of integrins, cadherins, selectins, and other cell adhesion molecules to ...
In response to infection or tissue injury, leukocytes roll along the endothelial lining of blood vessels, then stick more firmly, and finally migrate through the vessel wall into the underlying tissues. During the past fifteen years, remarkable progress has been made in elucidating the molecular mec...
In fact, CCs were shown to enhance the oocyte quality by their physical presence (cell-cell adhesion structures), their morphology [12, 13], their metabolic and signal transduction functions [14–17]. Zona pellucida (ZP), which is a filamentous matrix of well-structured and glycosylated ...
