Vascular endothelial cells (EC), communicating with one another across gap junctions, are usually made dysfunctional by hypoxia and reoxygenation (H/R); however, very limited information exists regarding the effects of H/R on the endothelial gap junctions. We investigated whether H/R interferes with
The expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) by endothelial cells is important for the regulation of adhesion and transendothelial migration of a variety of leukocytes that express the integrins lymphocyte functionassociated antigen 1 (LFA-1) and/or Mac-1.

## Abstract Current therapeutic approaches to treat cancer are often hampered by the lack of specificity of the drugs used for therapy. Scavidin, a novel fusion protein expressed on cell membranes, could be utilized for targeting of therapeutic molecules. Scavidin exploits the high binding affinity
