Descriptor English: Intercellular Junctions
Descriptor Spanish: Uniones Intercelulares
Descriptor uniones intercelulares
Entry term(s) uniones celulares
Scope note: Áreas de contacto directo entre una célula con otra célula vecina. La mayoría de tales uniones son muy pequeñas para ser observadas mediante un microscopio de luz, pero pueden visualizarse a través de los microscopios electrónicos convencionales o de fraccionamiento por congelación, los cuales muestran que las interacciones entre la MEMBRANA CELULAR, y a menudo el CITOPLASMA adyacente, y el ESPACIO EXTRACELULAR relacionado están altamente especializadas en estas regiones.

Scope note: Direct contact of a cell with a neighboring cell. Most such junctions are too small to be resolved by light microscopy, but they can be visualized by conventional or freeze-fracture electron microscopy, both of which show that the interacting CELL MEMBRANE and often the underlying CYTOPLASM and the intervening EXTRACELLULAR SPACE are highly specialized in these regions. (From Alberts et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2d ed, p792)
