Abstract

This paper has reviewed the literature about adhesion molecules. It has showed the role of cell adhesion molecules on cellular physiology by cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Its altered expression can be related in many pathways involved in oral cancer biological behavior, being capable of improving the metastatic potential of neoplastic cells.
