Background and Aims: Uropathogenic E.coli is one of the most known causes of urinary tract infections, which may lead to a high rate of morbidity and mortality in high risk patients. In this regard, the virulence factors such as bacterial adhesion molecules have a critical role. The current study was intended to determine the molecular properties of adhesion genes in Uropathogenic E.coli strain...

Neisseria meningitidis is a facultative pathogen bacterium which is well founded with a number of adhesion molecules to facilitate its colonization in human nasopharynx track. Neisseria meningitidis is a major cause of mortality from sever meningococcal disease and septicemia. The Neisseria meningitidis adhesion, NadA, is a trimeric autotransporter adhesion molecule which is involved in cell ad...

considering the emergence of antibiotic resistance, scientists are interested in using new antimicrobial agents in the treatment of infectious diseases including infections of the enteric systems. lactic acid bacteria have the great potential to produce antimicrobial compounds that inhibit and control pathogenic bacteria. the aim of this study was to determine the anti-bacterial and anti-adhere...

In recent years, cell adhesion and cell adhesion molecules have been shown to be important for many normal biological processes, including embryonic cell migration, immune system functions and wound healing. It has also been shown that they contribute to the pathogenesis of a large number of common human disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and tumor cell metastasis in cancer. In this review...

perforation of the wall of the reticulum by a sharp foreign body often produces peritonitis and can cause involvement of other organs.in cattle the disease is economically important because of severe loss of production and high mortality rate.the objective of this study was to determine the presence and kinds of foreign bodies in apperently healthy buffaloes which were slaughtered in ahvaz abba...

Cell Adhesion In article number 2110340, Ramasamy Paulmurugan, Young Keun Kim, Heemin Kang, and co-workers report template-mediated in situ tuning of nanoligand size spacing. They demonstrate that submolecular ligand spacing magnetic anchoring facilitate adhesion-structure assembly-mediated pro-healing polarization host macrophages. Increasing the significantly suppresses macrophage adhesion wh...

Objective- Study on the effect of heparin in prevention of abdominal adhesions following abdominal surgery in rat. Design- Experimental design. Animals-Twenty male rats with average weight of 248 ± 5 gr. Procedures- Animals were randomly divided into two equal groups of 10 rats (A and B). After induction of anesthesia, a midline abdominal incision was made and intestines were manipulated ...

Objective(s): The present paper aims to review the studies describing the interactions between HopQ and CEACAMs along with possible mechanisms responsible for pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori.Materials and Methods: The literature was searched on “PubMed” using different key words including Helicobacter pylori, CEACAM and gastric.<br ...

We have previously reported a newly discovered congenital disorder of neutrophil adhesion, leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome type 2 (LAD II). The clinical manifestations of this syndrome are similar to those seen in the classic leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome, now designated type 1 (LAD I), but the two syndromes differ in the molecular basis of their adhesion defects. LAD I is cause...
