Integrins and other cell adhesion molecules
Cell‐cell and cell‐substratum interactions are mediated through several different families of receptors. In addition to targeting cell adhesion to specific extracellular matrix ...
The tumor microenvironment
A tumor is not simply a group of cancer cells, but rather a heterogeneous collection of infiltrating and resident host cells, secreted factors and extracellular matrix. Tumor ce...
FOCAL ADHESIONS, CONTRACTILITY, AND SIGNALING
▪ Abstract Focal adhesions are sites of tight adhesion to the underlying extracellular matrix developed by cells in culture. They provide a structural link between the actin cyt...
Integrin Signaling
Cells reside in a protein network, the extracellular matrix (ECM), which they secrete and mold into the intercellular space. The ECM exerts profound control over cells. The effe...
Cleavage of Focal Adhesion Kinase by Caspases during Apoptosis
Apoptotic cells undergo characteristic morphological changes that include detachment of cell attachment from the substratum and loss of cell-cell interactions. Attachment of cel...
