The paper gives a review of the data available in the literature and an analysis of the authors' own data of the ultrastructural studies of the intercellular contacts of hepatocytes and epitheliocytes in some pathological states. It also shows an important role of the site of an element compound wherein the major molecular mechanisms of tissue homeostatic regulation display and discusses the contribution of macromolecular adhesive factors such as effector molecules capable of suppressing the development of a pathological process.
