Cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion junctions, illustration - Ilustración de stock

Cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion junctions, illustration. Cell adhesion is the process by which cells interact and attach to neighbouring cells through specialised molecules at the cell surface. Cells can adhere to adjacent cells via cell-cell junctions, or a cell can interact and adhere to the extracellular matrix (ECM) mediated by multi-protein adhesions via cell-matrix adhesion junctions
