Fibronectin is a dimeric glycoprotein with a molecular weight of 440,000. It is a soluble constituent of plasma and other body fluids and a fibrillar matrix protein of connective tissue. The two components are structurally similar and convertible. The possibility of multiple molecular interactions gives rise to a variety of biological functions.

Fibronectin and Atherosclerosis
Acta Medica Scandinavica, 1980ABSTRACT. Fibronectin is a polymorphic glycoprotein of plasma, other body fluids and connective tissue, and it occurs in an insoluble and a soluble form. Insoluble fibronectin is found associated with basement membranes and in loose connective tissue matrix as well as in the pericellular matrix formed around cultured adherent cells, such as ...

Fibronectin and cryoprecipitation
La Ricerca in Clinica e in Laboratorio, 1986Fourteen patients with essential mixed cryoglobulinemia were studied. The relevance of fibronectin (FN) in cryoprecipitation seems to be of relative importance since only two thirds of the cryoprecipitates have a higher cryocrit level when FN is present. On the other hand, the other samples show a lower precipitating activity after plasma heating at 60

Cryoglobulinemia and Fibronectin
Acta Haematologica, 2009Isolated and washed cryoglobulins obtained from 30 patients with different diseases were studied for the presence of fibronectin by immunoelectrophoresis. Two of the isolated cryoglobulins were of the type I, 3 were of the type II, while the other 25 were of type III. Despite extensive washing, fibronectin was detected in all the cryoprecipitates.

Fibronectin is a glycoprotein consisting of repeating units of amino acids, which form domains that enable the molecule to interact with a variety of cells through both integrin and non-integrin receptors. It is encoded by a single gene, but alternative splicing of pre-mRNA allows formation of multiple isoforms that have critical roles in cell adhesion,

Fibronectin and fibronectin fragments
1995Abstract The adhesive glycoprotein fibronectin has provided an important model system for investigating mechanisms of cell-adhesive interactions. Fibronectin binds to a number of biological macromolecules including heparin, collagen, fibrin, and cell surface receptors.

Abstract The current knowledge of the structure, expression and functions of fibronectin is reviewed.Fibronectin is a high molecular weight glycoprotein present in the blood, connective tissue and at cell surfaces. It is synthesized by many types of differentiated cells and is believed to be involved in the attachment of cells to the surrounding ...

The fibronectin (FN) levels in human follicular fluids have been shown to correlate well with follicular size and oocyte maturity, suggesting a role of FN in oocyte maturation. When added to the culture medium, the synthetic peptide Gly-Arg-Gly-Asp-Ser (GRGDS), which specifically inhibits the cell-binding of FN, has been shown to inhibit both ...

In the skin organ culture model of pemphigus, fibronectin concentrations of 300 and 500 μg/ml inhibited pemphigus plasma-induced acantholysis and intraepidermal binding of the pemphigus antibodies examined by direct immunofluorescence. A direct interaction of fibronectin with pemphigus antibodies could not be demonstrated by chromatography of pemphigus
