Pathogenic interactions between Helicobacter pylori adhesion protein HopQ and human cell surface adhesion molecules CEACAMs in gastric epithelial cells
Objective(s): The present paper aims to review the studies describing the interactions between HopQ and CEACAMs along with possible mechanisms responsible for pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori.Materials and Methods: The literature was searched on “PubMed” using different key words including Helicobacter pylori, CEACAM and gastric.<br ...
متن کاملInterplay between RAGE, CD44, and focal adhesion molecules in epithelial-mesenchymal transition of alveolar epithelial cells.
Fibrosis of the lung is characterized by the accumulation of myofibroblasts, a key mediator in the fibrogenic reaction. Cumulative evidence indicates that epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process whereby epithelial cells become mesenchyme-like, is an important contributing source for the myofibroblast population. Underlying this phenotypical change is a dramatic alteration in cellular...
متن کاملCadherin cell-adhesion molecules in human epithelial tissues and carcinomas.
Two distinct calcium-sensitive cell-cell adhesion molecules were identified in human epithelial tissues and carcinomas using two monoclonal antibodies raised against vulvar epidermoid carcinoma A-431 and human mammary carcinoma MCF-7 and selected on the basis of their activities to disrupt cell-cell adhesion. In immunoblot analysis, these antibodies, designated NCC-CAD-299 and HECD-1, detected ...
متن کاملExpression of adhesion molecules and mucins in human and rhesus macaque gastrointestinal epithelial cells.
Epithelial junctions and mucins play key roles in the gastrointestinal mucosal barrier, and their alterations are associated with numerous diseases, including carcinomas. The systematic expression of adhesion molecules and mucins in normal and malignant human gastrointestinal cells was investigated in this study. In normal human gastrointestinal cells, zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), α-catenin, β-ca...
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...
