Characterization of murine intercellular adhesion molecule-2.

A Comparative Study of Serum Level of Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1(ICAM-1) and High Sensitive C - reactive protein (hs-CRP) in Normal and Pre-eclamptic Pregnancies

    Background & Aims : Aging and the loss of endogenous estrogen production after menopause are accompanied by increases in blood pressure and endothelial dysfunction. Exercise training improves endothelial function in patients with hypertension. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of aerobic training on some markers of endothelial function in hypertensive postmenopausal women.   M...

Intercellular adhesion molecule-4 and CD36 are implicated in the abnormal adhesiveness of sickle cell SAD mouse erythrocytes to endothelium.

BACKGROUND Abnormal adhesiveness of red blood cells to endothelium has been implicated in vaso-occlusive crisis of sickle cell disease. The present study examined whether the SAD mouse model exhibits the same abnormalities of red blood cell adhesion as those found in human sickle cell disease. DESIGN AND METHODS The repertoire of adhesive molecules on murine erythrocytes and bEnd.3 microvascu...

Nucleotide sequence of the cDNA for murine intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1).

Department of Medicine, 'Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Institute for Molecular Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine, One Baylor Plaza, Houston, TX 77030, USA Submitted June 6, 1989 EMBL accession no. X15372 We have isolated three unique cDNA clones from a mouse thymus cDNA library using a nucleotide probe derived from the human cDNA. These clones cover 2,522 bp with an open reading frame ...

Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 is upregulated in ischemic muscle, which mediates trafficking of endothelial progenitor cells.

BACKGROUND Trafficking of transplanted endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) to an ischemic organ is a critical step in neovascularization. This study was performed to elucidate the molecular mechanism of EPC trafficking in terms of adhesion molecules. METHODS AND RESULTS Using murine hindlimb ischemia model, we examined expressions of E-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vas...
