Desmosome - Wikipedia
网页Desmosomes are one of the stronger cell-to-cell adhesion types and are found in tissue that experience intense mechanical stress, such as cardiac muscle tissue, bladder tissue, gastrointestinal mucosa, and epithelia.
Desmosomes - Definition, Function, Structure & Quiz - Biology …
网页2017年4月27日 — Desmosomes Definition. Desmosomes are a type of anchoring junction in animal tissues that connect adjacent cells. Anchoring junctions are button-like spots found all around cells that bind adjacent cells together.
Structure, Function and Regulation of Desmosomes - PMC
网页Desmosomes are adhesive intercellular junctions that mechanically integrate adjacent cells by coupling adhesive interactions mediated by desmosomal cadherins to the intermediate filament cytoskeletal network.
Desmosome structure, composition and function - ScienceDirect
网页2008年3月1日 — Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that provide strong adhesion between cells. Because they also link intracellularly to the intermediate filament cytoskeleton they form the adhesive bonds in a network that gives mechanical strength to tissues.
Desmosomes: Current Biology - Cell Press
网页2011年7月26日 — Desmosomes are specialized adhesive protein complexes that localize to intercellular junctions and are responsible for maintaining the mechanical integrity of tissues. The term ‘desmosome’ was coined by Josef Schaffer in 1920 and has its origins in the Greek words for bond (desmo) and body (soma).
Desmosomes: Essential contributors to an integrated intercellular ...
网页2019年12月30日 — Here, we review how desmosomes conferred new mechanical and signaling properties to vertebrate cells and tissues through their interactions with the existing junctional and cytoskeletal network.
Desmosomes – Definition, Structure, Functions, and Diagram
网页2022年8月19日 — Desmosomes. A desmosome, also known as a macula adherens, is one of animal cells’ anchoring junctions. They are cell-cell, intercellular junctions that connect adjacent cells in tissues that experience stress. Giulio …

网页2013年1月1日 — Desmosomes are adhesive intercellular junctions that mechanically integrate adjacent cells by coupling adhesive interactions mediated by desmosomal cadherins to the intermediate filament cytoskeletal network.
The Desmosome - PMC - National Center for Biotechnology …
网页Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that tether intermediate filaments to the plasma membrane. Desmogleins and desmocollins, members of the cadherin superfamily, mediate adhesion at desmosomes.
