[Mechanical properties of intercellular contacts of small intestinal epithelium]. 1977

A G Melikiants, and A G Malenkov, and A M Melikian

It has been shown that when long-acting forces are applied, the intercellular contacts in the small intestine epithelium are destroyed at the values of these forces lower than the adhesion ones obtained at the application of short-term loads. Starting with some threshold value of the load viscose-elastic properties of intercellular contacts are shown up. Thus the threshold varies essentially for different cells of the population: 4 variations are observed. A removal of bivalent cations from the tissue significantly decreases the threshold value of the forces and decreases the viscosity while the excessive concentrations of bivalent cations increase the threshold value of forces, the membrane viscosity and contact components.

D002448 Cell Adhesion Adherence of cells to surfaces or to other cells. Adhesion, Cell,Adhesions, Cell,Cell Adhesions
D004847 Epithelial Cells Cells that line the inner and outer surfaces of the body by forming cellular layers (EPITHELIUM) or masses. Epithelial cells lining the SKIN; the MOUTH; the NOSE; and the ANAL CANAL derive from ectoderm; those lining the RESPIRATORY SYSTEM and the DIGESTIVE SYSTEM derive from endoderm; others (CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and LYMPHATIC SYSTEM) derive from mesoderm. Epithelial cells can be classified mainly by cell shape and function into squamous, glandular and transitional epithelial cells.
