Surface membrane-associated regulation of cell assembly, differentiation,
and growth

The role of the surface membrane in regulating proliferation and
differentiation of eukaryotic cells is highly complex. Proximal cell- cell
interactions are involved, including physical contact via junctional
complexes, exfoliation of surface membrane vesicles, proteolytic cleavage
of membrane-bound precursors, and exocytosis of soluble proteins (see Fig
5). At another level, the surface expresses receptors and other proteins
that mediate cell-cell adhesion, a multistep event that may be sufficient
to activate some growth- associated genes and alter cell shape. The
evidence indicates that together with secreted growth factors, surface
membrane-associated molecules play a dynamic role in regulating
multicellular assembly and cell differentiation and growth.
