What Does ICAM Stand For?
ICAM stands for Intercellular Adhesion Molecule
Intercellular Adhesion Molecule (ICAM) is a type of cell surface protein that plays a crucial role in immune responses by facilitating adhesion between immune cells and endothelial cells. ICAMs are involved in the inflammatory process and are important for cellular signaling, migration, and the maintenance of tissue architecture. They are also implicated in various pathological conditions, including autoimmune diseases and cancer.
