- Abstract
One of the areas of biomedical science that has recently advanced tremendously is understanding of signaling the cell surface. It is becoming increasingly clear that the body’s tissues rely on its integrity, function, spatial organization, and interactions at its cell surface. Multicellular organisms require efficient mechanisms by which information can be transmitted between cells. To exchange information, cells interact with each other. Cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) belong to these class of molecules. They form the platform for cell-to-cell interactions and adhesion between cells. There are totally about 25 different types of CAMs.
