Rapid progress has been made in the understanding of the molecular interactions that result
in cell adhesion. Many adhesive proteins present in extracellular matrices and in the blood …

What do cell adhesion, cell migration during embryogenesis, thrombosis, and lymphocyte
help and killing have in common? It has recently become clear that these ostensibly …

Various gram-negative animal and plant pathogens use a novel, sec-independent protein
secretion system as a basic virulence mechanism. It is becoming increasingly clear that …

This standard-setting textbook has defined the field of immunology since 1984, and is now in
its Seventh Edition continuing to deliver the detailed, authoritative, and timely coverage …

T lymphocytes respond to foreign antigens both by producing protein effector molecules
known as lymphokines and by multiplying. Complete activation requires two signaling …

By David R. Phillips, Israel F. Charo, Leslie V. Parise, and Laurence A. Fitzgerald A NEW
FAMILY of cell-surface receptors has been identified that mediates a wide variety of cell-cell …

Mammalian cell receptors that promote entry of intracellular bacteria into nonphagocytic
cells have not been identified. We show here that multiple members of the integrin …

Table 2 lists most of the extracellular matrix and related receptors identified to date. The
wide range of binding affinities of these receptors for their ligands may be important to their …

We have developed two rat mAbs that recognize different subunits of the human fibroblast
fibronectin receptor complex and have used them to probe the function of this cell surface …

Adhesion of platelets to the subendothelial matrix of an injured vessel wall is an essential
step in triggering the formation of a haemostatic plug. Fibronectin, collagen and laminin are …
