Adhesion molecules such as LI, neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) and N-cadherin promote axonal regeneration by homophilic interactions between axons and Schwann cell surfaces (see Ch. 7). The expression of p75 (low affinity NGF receptor, Ch. 27) is also increased at the Schwann cell surface after injury. Extracellular matrix molecules, such as tenascin and proteoglycans, increase the regenerative potential of damaged peripheral nerves by binding to integrins on the axonal surface. [Pg.520]

Effects of oligosaccharides on the biological functions of proteins (15 examples). The capacity for homophilic binding of the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM, Section 12.5.3) is modulated by the extension of its polysialic chains. The binding of a highly specific heparin pentasaccharide sequence to the protein antithrombin III converts it to a potent anticoagulant (Section 17.3). [Pg.150]

The main carrier of polysialic acid units is the neural cell adhesion molecule N-CAM [52]. In adult rat brain, the sodium channel glycoprotein has also been found to be a carrier of polysialic acid [53]. Owing to its identical structure with some bacterial polysaccharides, brain polysialic acid can be identified with the aid of antibodies directed against these polysaccharides (Fig. 9) [49]. Polysialic acid is an unusually weak immunogen, and the polysialic acid seems thus to give protection to the bacteria from immunological defence mechanisms [54]. [Pg.63]

Other neuroendocrine markers that are occasionally used to identify normal neuroendocrine lung cells and neoplastic neuroendocrine cells include neurofilaments,neural cell adhesion molecules (N-CAM),A77 and Leu7. The most frequent neuropeptides, neuroamines, and hormones found in neuroendocrine lung neoplasms are listed in Table 12.11. TTF-1 is found in a high percentage of small cell carcinomas, atypical carcinoids, and large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas, but in less than 50% of typical carcinoids. [Pg.378]

Well-studied CAMs of the Ig-family in the nervous system are the neural cell adhesion molecule (N-CAM) and the neuron-glia cell adhesion molecule (LI or NILE). Both molecules are found on neurons and have been suggested to mediate neuron-glia interactions by heterophilic binding mechanisms. Currently, it is unknown whether astroglia express N-CAM and/or LI in vivo (Persohn and Schachner, 1987 Bartsch et al.,... [Pg.383]

These spikes are required for the attachment of the virus to the surface of the host cell through specific interactions with a cell surface receptor. The exact nature of this receptor is still a matter of debate, although a number of candidates have been suggested, including the neural cell adhesion molecule N-CAM and the low-affinity nerve growth factor receptor p75NTR. As for most other enveloped viruses, it is likely that cell surface glycolipids, ... [Pg.280]
