## Abstract Hyaluronic acid (HA) levels are elevated in bladder cancer tissues and regulate tumor growth and progression. Urinary HA levels measured by the HA test are an accurate marker for bladder cancer. In cells, HA is synthesized by one of the 3 HAโsynthase(s) i.e., HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3. In thi

In order to study adhesion-molecule expression and its consequences for cellular recognition, the presence of adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1, VLA-4, LFA-1, alpha, LFA-1 beta, LFA-3, b1-integrin and b3-integrin was studied on specimens from breast tissue by immunohistochemistry and on cells from b
## Abstract We examined the expression of intercellularโadhesion moleculeโI (ICAMโI, CD54) in 6 surgically removed pancreatic tumors and 8 pancreatic tumor cell lines. Immunohistochemistry revealed a varying percentage of ICAMโIโpositive pancreas tumor cells, while normal pancreatic tissue (except
Adhesion molecules might play a role in tumor progression. We investigated expression of the adhesion molecules ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and ELAM-1 in 24 primary colorectal carcinomas using immuno-histochemistry and Northern blot analysis. Normal colonic tissue from the same patients served as controls. ICAM-
