Vogt–Koyanagi–Harada syndrome: a rheumatologic perspective
The increasingly close collaboration between ophthalmologists and rheumatologists is greatly aiding the early diagnosis and more effective interdisciplinary management of patients with inf lammatory eye involvement associated with many multisystem diseases [1–3]. For example, occurrence of acute anterior uveitis in patients with ankylosing spondylitis and related spondylo arthropathies is more ...
متن کاملCell adhesion molecules in cardiovascular disease: a clinical perspective.
In summary, there is increasing evidence that cell adhesion molecules play an important role in cardiovascular pathology. They are involved in the main processes that underlie cardiac disease including thrombosis, leucocyte infiltration, smooth muscle proliferation, and cell migration. Anti-integrin treatment is already widely used to treat thrombotic complications, and it seems likely that man...
متن کاملPentoxifylline Decreases Serum Level of Adhesion Molecules in Atherosclerosis Patients
Background: Inflammation is involved in development, progression, and complications of atherosclerotic disease. Clinical studies have indicated that the level of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1), IL-18, and adhesion molecules correlates with the severity of atherosclerosis and can predict future cardiovascular events. Experimental studies have shown pentoxifylline (PTX) reduces these ...
متن کاملCellular Adhesion and Adhesion Molecules
In recent years, cell adhesion and cell adhesion molecules have been shown to be important for many normal biological processes, including embryonic cell migration, immune system functions and wound healing. It has also been shown that they contribute to the pathogenesis of a large number of common human disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and tumor cell metastasis in cancer. In this review...
متن کاملAdhesion molecules in implantation.
At implantation, trophectoderm attaches to the apical uterine luminal epithelial cell surface. Molecular anatomy studies in humans and mice, and data from experimental models have identified several adhesion molecules that could take part in this process: integrins of the alpha v family, trophinin, CD44, cad-11, the H type I and Lewis y oligosaccharides and heparan sulfate. The endometrial cell...
