The neural cell adhesion molecule L1 is a cell surface glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily which mediates adhesion between neural cells. The possibility that similar cell-cell recognition mechanisms may be shared by the nervous and immune systems prompted us to study the expression and fu

## Abstract L1 and NCAM, two cell adhesion molecules of the immunoglobulin superfamily, have been implicated in the formation of neural circuits, synaptic plasticity, and cognitive function. In this study, we sought to investigate whether differences in the steadyβstate levels of L1 and NCAM expres
## Abstract The intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAMβ1) has been shown to be important in interactions involying cells of the immune system and to be upregulated in a number of cell culture systems by cytokines, including immune interferon (IFNβΞ³) and tumor necrosis factorβalpha (TNFβΞ±).
