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 ...

Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) of the cadherin and immunoglobulin superfamilies mediate cell–cell adhesion by engaging in homophilic and heterophilic interactions and, therefore, promote the formation ...

Learn about adhesion contracts—non-negotiable agreements in business. Discover their definition, applications, enforceability, and how they affect you.

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 ...

The cells of all animals—including humans—are characterized by their ability to adhere particularly well to surfaces in their environment. This mechanically stable adhesion enables the development of ...

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 ...

Flagella are composed of over 20 unique proteins and represent a complex set of molecular machinery, working in unison to provide motility to many Gram-negative and positive species of bacteria, as ...

Power semiconductor packages are used in high temperature, high voltage environments. With the increase of electric vehicles (EVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) in the automotive market, demands ...

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) is an advanced material imaging technique, which is able to provide accurate topographic images of a surface. It was created by Gerd Binning and Heinrich Rohrer in 1986 ...

Turnkey asset management platform AssetMark is adding to its services with the acquisition of Adhesion Wealth, a unified managed account platform. AssetMark announced the acquisition this week after ...

The issue of low wheel/rail adhesion has been a global problem since the earliest days of the railways. Making it harder for trains to accelerate and brake efficiently, low adhesion can result in ...
