ICAM-1 co-stimulates target cells to facilitate antigen presentation.
Adhesion molecules are known to mediate cell-cell interactions, particularly those between T cells and antigen-presenting or target cells. Recent studies identified ICAM-1 as a co-stimulatory ligand that binds to lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (LFA-1), thereby promoting the activation of T...
