Adhesion GPCRs are a large class of surface proteins that recognize chemical and mechanical stimuli in the body. The rapidly expanding body of knowledge on the therapeutic targeting of these receptors ...

Cell-adhesion molecules of the cadherin and immunoglobulin-like cell-adhesion molecule (Ig-CAM) superfamilies not only exert their functions by mediating cell–cell and cell–matrix adhesion, but also ...

The aim of this paper is to review the current understanding of the adhesion when at least one of the two materials adhering is a polymer. The second material may also be polymeric, but also it may be ...

Cell migration affects all morphogenetic processes and contributes to numerous diseases, including cancer and cardiovascular disease. Cell migration begins with protrusion of the cell membrane, ...

A research team discovers universal mechanism that leads to adhesion hysteresis in soft materials. Through a combination of experimental observations and simulations, the team demonstrated that ...

The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells quickly identify and destroy malignant cells, but immune system-mediated inflammation regulates ...

Intrauterine pathology can be best assessed at the time of hysteroscopy. Operative hysteroscopy also allows the physician to treat any pathology he or she finds. Polyps, fibroids, or congenital ...

Fziomed's dual-polymer adhesion barrier technology platform is becoming a new standard of care as an adjunctive therapy. SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif., Feb. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Fziomed, Inc. ("Fziomed" ...

Tissue structures are determined by both cell-cell adhesion and cell-matrix adhesion, with the latter describing interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix (ECM). The ECM is the ...

Vitreomacular adhesion (VMA) can be serious, but it’s treatable. It involves two parts of your eye. One is the vitreous, or the “jelly” part that fills the eyeball. The other is the macula, a small ...

It's been about four years since an obstetrician opened her belly to seek the source of her chronic abdominal pain. He discovered her uterus had stuck to her bladder, the result of excessive scar ...
