Researchers from University of Nijmegen, Nijmegen Center for Molecular Life Science describe findings in tissue engineering
Published in Medical Device Business Week, February 6th, 2008
Fresh data on tissue engineering are presented in the report 'Distinct kinetic and mechanical properties govern ALCAM-mediated interactions as shown by single-molecule force spectroscopy.' "The activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) mediates dynamic homotypic and heterotypic cellular interactions. Whereas homotypic ALCAM-ALCAM interactions have been implicated in the development and maintenance of tissue architecture and tumor progression, heterotypic ALCAM-CD6 interactions act to initiate and stabilize T-cell-dendritic-cell interactions affecting T-cell activation," researchers in Nijmegen, Netherlands report.
"The ability to resist the forces acting on the...
