Disease relevance of AMICA1

 

High impact information on AMICA1

 

Biological context of AMICA1

  • Clinical presentation of osteoarthritis in general practice: determinants of pain in Italian patients in the AMICA study [4].
  • Experiments were designed to examine if Actinomycin D, an antibiotic, and Amica 30, a homeopathic drug used against shock and injury, can ameliorate cytogenetic damage induced by single or multiple exposures to ultrasonication [5].
 

Anatomical context of AMICA1

  • Taken together, these results indicate that JAML and CAR are a novel pair of adhesion molecules that play an important role in modulating PMN migration cross epithelial tight junctions [2].
  • Experiments with a JAML fusion protein revealed specific binding of JAML to epithelial CAR expressed at tight junctions in T84 cell monolayers and normal human colonic mucosa [2].
