Descriptor English: Cell Adhesion Molecules, Neuronal
Descriptor Spanish: Moléculas de Adhesión Celular Neuronal
Descriptor moléculas de adhesión celular neuronal
Entry term(s) moléculas de adhesión asociadas al axón
Scope note: Ligandos de superficie que median en la adhesión intercelular y que funcionan en el acoplamiento e interconexión del sistema nervioso de los vertebrados. Estas moléculas promueven la adhesión celular por un mecanismo homofílico. No deben confundirse con las MOLÉCULAS DE ADHESIÓN DE CÉLULAS NERVIOSAS que, en la actualidad, se sabe que se expresan en diversos tejidos y tipos celulares además del tejido nervioso.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D015816
Scope note: Surface ligands that mediate cell-to-cell adhesion and function in the assembly and interconnection of the vertebrate nervous system. These molecules promote cell adhesion via a homophilic mechanism. These are not to be confused with NEURAL CELL ADHESION MOLECULES, now known to be expressed in a variety of tissues and cell types in addition to nervous tissue.
Annotation: do not confuse with CELL ADHESION MOLECULES, NEURON-GLIA; do not confuse entry term NEURONAL CELL ADHESION MOLECULES with NCAM for entry term NEURAL CELL ADHESION MOLECULE
