The recognition of extracellular molecules by cell surface receptors is the principal mechanism used by cells to sense their environment. Consequently, signals transduced as a result of these interactions make a major contribution to the regulation of cellular phenotype. Historically, particular emp
## Abstract Integrins comprise a large family of cell adhesion molecules that mediate interactions between the extracellular environment and the cytoplasm. During the last decade, analysis of the expression and function of these molecules has revealed that integrins regulate many aspects of cell be
Copper-poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE) and gold-PTFE laminates were prepared by surface graft copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) on argon plasma-pretreated PTFE films at an elevated temperature with simultaneous lamination to copper foils or gold substrates. The plasma pretreatment int
## Abstract Cell shape and adhesion of cultured mammalian cells change dramatically during mitosis, however, how cell cycle‐dependent alterations in cell adhesion are regulated remain to be elucidated. We show here that normal human mammary epithelial (HME) cells which became less adhesive and adop
