| desmosome |
A desmosome (also known as macula adherens) is a cell structure specialized for cell-to-cell adhesion. Desmosomes are molecular complexes of cell adhesion proteins and linking proteins that attach the cell surface adhesion proteins to intracellular keratin cytoskeletal filaments. The cell adhesion proteins of the desmosome are members of the cadherin family of cell adhesion molecules. ...

| DES |
Diethylstilbestrol (dye-ETH-ul-stil-BES-trol). A synthetic form of the hormone estrogen that was prescribed to pregnant women between about 1940 and 1971 because it was thought to prevent miscarriages. DES may increase the risk of uterine, ovarian, or breast cancer in women who took it. DES also has been linked to an increased risk of clear cell carcinoma of the vagina or cervix in daughters exposed to DES before birth.
