The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells rapidly recognize and kill malignant cells; meanwhile, immune system-mediated inflammation ...

Cell adhesion molecules are ubiquitous, specifying precise cell–cell interactions in many, diverse, cellular processes. Now, researchers have engineered molecules that act like “cellular glue,” ...

As the interfacial water layer hinders the formation of interfacial contacts and intermolecular interactions between the adhesive and the substrate, in almost all cases of underwater adhesion, water ...

Scientists overturned long-held assumptions in that finds water can be a help for adhesion. The implications of this research are particularly in biomedical applications such as bandages, health ...

The immune system plays a dual role in inflammation and cancer development. Immune system effector cells quickly identify and destroy malignant cells, but immune system-mediated inflammation regulates ...
