The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells rapidly recognize and kill malignant cells; meanwhile, immune system-mediated inflammation ...

It was no more than 20 years ago that biologists believed that cell adhesion molecules were simply the glue of life, the stuff that served to hold cells and ligaments and everything together. Since ...

Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) are integral to the organisation and function of the nervous system, mediating cell–cell interactions that underpin the formation and maintenance of neural networks.

Our bodies comprise different tissues and organs, which are composed of many cells that must adhere to form functional higher order structures. This adherence is facilitated by specialized proteins ...

Meet the most important molecules you’ve (probably) never thought about: adhesion molecules, proteins on the surface of cells that help them communicate and coordinate with each other. They’re vital ...

Multidisciplinary management and use of neoadjuvant cisplatin combination chemotherapy in patients with muscle-invasive urothelial bladder cancer. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2012 ASCO ...

Cells are the fundamental unit of life. The average human body contains around 30 trillion cells with varying functions and potentials. Communication between cells is central to the body’s ability to ...

Ji Xiao Niu, Wen Jian Zhang, Li Ya Ye, Lian Qiu Wu, Guang Jin Zhu, Zhi Hua Yang, Georges E. Grau and Jin Ning Lou Tumor metastasis is a complex process involving the interaction between tumor cells ...

Potential predictive value of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with a platinum doublet and bevacizumab. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the ...

We can think of cells as the building blocks of living things. Every organ in your body, from your brain to your gut to your skin, is made up of highly specialized cells. But most cells don’t just ...

The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells quickly identify and destroy malignant cells, but immune system-mediated inflammation regulates ...
