Pentoxifylline 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...
متن کاملAdhesion molecules and atherogenesis.
Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the vessel wall characterized by monocyte infiltration in response to pro-atherogenic factors such as oxidized lipids. Recently, the role of specific adhesion molecules in this process has been explored. The endothelium overlying atherosclerotic lesions expresses P-selectin and the shoulder regions express vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) ...
متن کاملSynaptic adhesion molecules
Synopsis The chemical synapse is a specialized asymmetric adhesion site between the axon of a neuron and its target cell. Synapse formation is a multi-step process involving target recognition followed by reciprocal inductive interactions that result in recruitment of proteins, such as receptors, and organelles, such as synaptic vesicles, to both the presynaptic and postsynaptic compartments. S...
