Cell Adhesion/Migration Assays
 
Cell adhesion molecules (CAM) are multi-functional proteins involved in a number of regulatory processes, including cell growth, differentiation and proliferation, migration, and regeneration . Cell adhesion is crucial in the formation and maintenance of coherent multicellular structures. Two major types of cell adhesion processes are seen in multicellular organisms: cell-cell adhesion, where physical bonds are formed between adjacent cells; and cell-matrix adhesion, where cells bind to adhesive proteins in the extracellular matrix.
