Cell adhesion is the process by which cells form contacts with each other or with their substratum through specialized protein complexes. Intercellular adhesion can be mediated by adherens ...

A team of researchers at Åbo Akademi University in Finland made a surprising discovery. They found that Talin-1, a protein ...

Medical implants and biomedical devices often cause inflammatory responses due to poor biocompatibility. Apatite coatings ...

Medical implants have transformed health care, offering innovative solutions with advanced materials and technologies.

Biocompatibility is a key challenge for medical implants, so researchers have engineered apatite nanoparticles with enhanced ...

A new study shows how an anticancer drug triggers an "outside in" signal that gets it sucked into a cancer cell. The work, ...

During cell elongation, clusters of focal adhesions (FAs) form near the poles of the elongating cells. FAs are mechanosensitive clusters of adhesions that grow under mechanical tension exerted by the ...

Notably, interactions involving the integrin family and ICAM/VCAM, known for their roles in cell adhesion between blood leukocytes and brain endothelial cells, were particularly prominent in the ...

Sr incorporation in PEEK via a polydopamine coating improves osteogenic potential, promoting cell adhesion and mineralization ...
