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 کاملAdhesion molecules in skeletogenesis: II. Neural cell adhesion molecules mediate precartilaginous mesenchymal condensations and enhance chondrogenesis.
Neural cell adhesion molecules (NCAM) was expressed transiently by mesenchymal cells in precartilaginous condensations of the embryonic chicken limb but was lost upon differentiation into cartilage. Consequently, NCAM was present in the periphery of the limb anlagen but was absent in the cartilaginous center of the growing limb. To determine NCAM function in limb bud chondrogenesis we incubated...
متن کاملNeural GPI-anchored cell adhesion molecules.
When first identified, neural cell adhesion molecules (neural CAMs) were thought to act simply by providing cell surfaces with differential adhesion properties. In the decades following the identification of the first neural CAMs, it has been realized that these proteins are actually involved in very complex processes such as axon guidance, neuronal migration, neurite outgrowth and fasciculatio...
متن کاملCell Adhesion Molecules in Neural Stem Cell and Stem Cell-Based Therapy for Neural Disorders
Neural stem/progenitor cells (NS/PCs), found in both the developing and the adult mamma‐ lian central nervous system (CNS), are a heterogeneous population of multipotent cells with the potential to self-renew by symmetric cell division or to differentiate into neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes through asymmetric cell division (Gage, 2000; Alvarez-Buylla et al., 2001; Temple, 2001; Götz a...
متن کاملCell-adhesion and substrate-adhesion molecules: their instructive roles in neural crest cell migration.
The individualization of crest cells from the neural folds and neural tube involves distinct mechanisms affecting both the tissue shape and the cell environment. Though these mechanisms are not fully understood at the molecular level, the analysis of the distribution of several molecules reported to promote intercellular contacts indicates a correlation between cell detachment from the neurepit...
