Cell adhesion: a general appraisal.

P Sträuli, G Haemmerli

    Blood Cells
    |January 1, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary

    This review explores cell adhesion to inorganic surfaces, detailing the energy-dependent steps like protein secretion and cytoskeleton organization. It highlights the "grip and stick" model for understanding cell attachment processes.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Biophysics
    • Materials Science

    Background:

    • Existing cell adhesion data primarily focuses on in vitro conditions.
    • Understanding cell attachment to surfaces is crucial for various biological and biomedical applications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the process of cell adhesion specifically to plane inorganic substrata.
    • To elucidate the distinct, energy-dependent steps involved in cell adhesion.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review focusing on in vitro cell adhesion studies.
    • Analysis of the
    • grip and stick
    • model for cell adhesion.
    • Outline of agents and functions in adhesion stages.

    Main Results:

    • Cell adhesion is an energy-requiring process with sequential steps.
    • Key steps include attachment protein secretion, formation of attachment sites, and cytoskeleton organization.
    • The
    • grip and stick
    • model effectively describes these events.

    Conclusions:

    • Cell adhesion to inorganic substrata involves a coordinated, multi-step process.
    • The identified mechanisms provide a framework for understanding cell-surface interactions.
    • Potential extrapolations to in vivo cell adhesion are suggested.
