  2. Dermal adhesive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermal_adhesive

    A dermal adhesive (or skin glue) is a glue used to close wounds in the skin as an alternative to sutures, staples, or clips. Glued closure results in less scarring and is less prone to infection than sutured or stapled closure. There is also no residual closure to remove, so follow-up visits for removal are not required.

  3. Cell adhesion molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_adhesion_molecule

    It controls the process of circulating lymphocytes adhering to particular regions and organs of the body. [22] The process is highly regulated by cell adhesion molecules, particularly, the addressin also known as MADCAM1. This antigen is known for its role in tissue-specific adhesion of lymphocytes to high endothelium venules. [23]

  4. Cell adhesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_adhesion

    Schematic of cell adhesion. Cell adhesion is the process by which cells interact and attach to neighbouring cells through specialised molecules of the cell surface. This process can occur either through direct contact between cell surfaces such as cell junctions or indirect interaction, where cells attach to surrounding extracellular matrix, a gel-like structure containing molecules released ...

  5. Adhesion (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesion_(medicine)

    The fibrin acts like a glue to seal the injury and builds the fledgling adhesion, said at this point to be "fibrinous." In body cavities such as the peritoneal, pericardial, and synovial cavities, a family of fibrinolytic enzymes may act to limit the extent of the initial fibrinous adhesion, and may even dissolve it. In many cases, the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-octyl_cyanoacrylate

    2-Octyl cyanoacrylate is a cyanoacrylate ester typically used as a wound closure adhesive (under the brand name Dermabond). [1] It is closely related to octyl cyanoacrylate . The use of 2-octyl cyanoacrylate was approved in 1998; offered as an alternative to stitches, sutures, and or adhesive strips.

  7. Fibronectin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibronectin

    Modules III 9–10 correspond to the "cell-binding domain" of fibronectin. The RGD sequence (Arg–Gly–Asp) is located in III 10 and is the site of cell attachment via α5β1 and αVβ3 integrins on the cell surface. The "synergy site" is in III 9 and has a role in modulating fibronectin's association with α5β1 integrins. [12]

    Jacksonville Jaguars - 7% (at TEN, NYJ, at LV, TEN). Yeah, um … not sure I’d actually pull the trigger on a Jaguars add. Feels like that’s one or two steps beyond recklessness.

  9. Collagen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collagen

    Collagen (/ ˈ k ɒ l ə dʒ ə n /) is the main structural protein in the extracellular matrix of a body's various connective tissues. As the main component of connective tissue, it is the most abundant protein in mammals. [1] 25% to 35% of a mammalian body's protein content is collagen.
