Sentences with phrase «more cell adhesion molecules»

The release of inflammatory cytokines, or intercellular signaling molecules such as interleukin - 1 (IL - 1), interleukin - 2 (IL - 6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF - α) at the site of immune activation causes other immune cells migrating throughout the lymphatic vessels of the body to express more cell adhesion molecules (CAMs).

Not exact matches

Now a more fine - grained picture of adhesion mechanics is emerging, thanks to a new tool developed in Illinois in recent years called a «tension gauge tether,» which allows scientists to measure cell mechanics at the single - molecule level.

The constitutive expression of these endothelial cell adhesion molecules was very similar for most of the lines derived from different organs, i.e., very low expression levels of E-selectin and VCAM - 1 and more pronounced expression of ICAM - 1.

The endothelial cells in insulin - receptor knockout mice expressed more of the VCAM - 1 adhesion molecule that helps white blood cells grab onto the growing plaques, and blood vessels gathered four times as many white blood cells.
