Cell adhesion: Other organisms, General mechanism & Overview

Cell adhesion is the process by which cells interact and attach to neighbouring cells through specialised molecules of the cell surface. This process can occur either through direct contact between cell surfaces such as cell junctions or indirect interaction, where cells attach to surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM), a gel-like structure containing…
