Introduction: Oxidative stress is one of the inflammatory events caused by obesity. This condition characterized an increase in various markers, such as intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell (VCAM-1), and a cluster differentiation 40 (CD40). study aimed to analyze effect Plectranthus amboinicus (Lour.) Spreng ethanol extract on ICAM-1, VCAM-1, CD40 obese rats. Methods: The u...

Introduction There is an agreement that eating disorder is related to psychological characteristics and on the other hand, level of ghrelin hormone, Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and E-selection also change during eating disorders. We aimed to study the relationship between eating disorders and rest levels, ICAM-1, E-selection, and ghrelin hormone in obese people. Materials and Met...

Abstract Background Biomarkers can be used to detect the presence of endothelial and/or alveolar epithelial injuries in case ARDS. Angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell protein-1 (VCAM-1), P-selectin and E-selectin are biomarkers injury, whereas receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE) reflects injury. The aims this study were evalu...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Neutrophil extravasation from the blood into tissues is initiated by tethering and rolling of neutrophils on endothelial cells, followed by neutrophil integrin activation and shear resistant arrest, crawling, diapedesis and breaching the endothelial basement membrane harbouring pericytes. Endothelial intercellular cell adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1 and ICAM-2, in conjunction with...

ObjectiveThis study examined the impact of submaximal walking training (WT) on local and systemic nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability, inflammation, oxidative stress in patients with intermittent claudication (IC).MethodsThe employed a randomised, controlled, parallel group design was performed single centre. Thirty-two men IC were randomly allocated to two groups: WT (n = 16, sessions/week, 15 c...

ICAM-1 and -2 are integrin-binding Ig superfamily adhesion molecules that are important for leukocyte transmigration across endothelial monolayers. ICAM-1 cross-linking is known to activate the small GTPase RhoA and induce stress fiber formation in endothelial cells, but ICAM-2 signaling has not been investigated. In this study, we compare ICAM-1 and ICAM-2 signaling and localization in HUVECs....

We have studied the cytoskeletal association of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1, CD54), an integral membrane protein that functions as a counterreceptor for leukocyte integrins (CD11/CD18). A linkage between ICAM-1 and cytoskeletal elements was suggested by studies showing a different ICAM-1 staining pattern for COS cells transfected with wild-type ICAM-1 or with an ICAM-1 construct t...
