Objective(s):Anodized treated titanium surfaces, have been proposed as potential surfaces with better cell attachment capacities. We have investigated the adhesion and proliferation properties of H9C2 cardiac myoblasts on anodized treated titanium surface.  Materials and Methods: Surface topography and anodized tubules were examined by high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Contro...

Metastasis describes the ability of a tumor to invade normal tissue and generate secondary tumors at sites distant from the primary tumor. The mechanism responsible for the inhibition of tumor metastasis by different agents is at least partly associated with the ability to interfere with cellular functions such as adhesiveness, motility and invasiveness. Certainly effective treatment of metasta...

the interaction of herpes simplex virus type 1 (hsv-1) with human fetal foreskin fibroblast (hfff) cell was studied using a recent isolate of hsv-1 which was propagated in hep-2 cells. hfff cells were challenged with hsv-1 with a multiplicity of infection (moi) of 1 virus/cell for 24 hours. flow cytometric analysis demonstrated that hsv-1 challenged hfff cells expressed increased levels of α2β1...

In this chapter we apply the Ising model to describe statics and kinetics of cell adhesion. We illuminate many-body effects underlying structure, formation, dissolution cellular adhesion domains in presence absence forces. consider mixed Glauber-Kawasaki dynamics a two-dimensional nearest-neighbor interacting diffusing bonds with intrinsic binding-affinity under action shared pulling or pushing...
