Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 augments myoblast adhesion and fusion through homophilic trans-interactions
Abstract The overall objective of the study was to identify mechanisms through which intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) augments the adhesive and fusogenic properties of myogenic cells. Hypotheses were tested using cultured myoblasts and fibroblasts, which do not constitutively express ICAM-...
