Integrins are a large family of cell surface proteins that serve as receptors, involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. These receptors are of fundamental importance in the organization of tissues and organs. Integrins participate in a complex apparatus anchoring cells to their surrounding and transducing signals into the cells.

The integrins are a family of α,β heterodimeric receptors that mediate dynamic linkages between extracellular adhesion molecules and the intracellular actin cytoskeleton. Integrins are expressed by all multicellular animals, but their diversity varies widely among species; for example, in mammals, 19 α and 8β subunit genes encode polypeptides that ...

Lymphocytes, monocytes and granulocytes, which are collectively known as 'leukocytes', circulate primarily within the vascular system and lymphoid tissue but are found in essentially all tissues of the body. This mobile lifestyle necessitates the constant making and breaking of adhesive contacts with targets in their immediate environment. The adhesion

Integrins are a family of adhesion receptors used by cells to interact with their extracellular matrix. Integrins also function as signaling receptors, integrating information from the extracellular matrix and other environmental cues including growth factors and hormones.

The loss of integrin-mediated cell-matrix contact induces apoptosis ('anoikis') in certain cell types. Recently it has been shown that protein kinase signaling pathways control anoikis both positively and negatively. Focal adhesion kinase, when activated by integrins, can suppress anoikis.

We have undertaken the study of integrins specifically or predominantly expressed in epithelial cells, as they may be involved in establishing and maintaining properties peculiar to epithelia, such as polarization and morphogenetic movements. We describe here recent results regarding two such integrins.

The α2β1 integrin, also known as VLA-2, GPIa-IIa, CD49b, was first identified as an extracellular matrix receptor for collagens and/or laminins [55, 56]. It is now recognized that the α2β1 integrin serves as a receptor for many matrix and nonmatrix molecules [35, 79, 128].

SummaryIntegrins are cell surface adhesion receptors that participate in a variety of important processes throughout the vasculature. Here we summarize some recent findings on the regulation of integrin mediated cellular adhesion. Particular emphasis is placed on the regulation of integrin affinity for ligand (activation), although this is just one ...

Cells and extracellular matrix components have complex interactions which are involved in many biological processes throughout the life span. These cell-matrix interactions are mediated by receptors, of which some are integral membrane proteins. The aim of this short article is to review the integrin family, the overall structure of integrins, their ...

Integrins provide dynamic links between cells and extracellular matrix molecules. Although integrins were originally viewed as relatively simple adhesion molecules, it soon became clear that intracellular signal transduction initiated by integrins is centrally involved in many cellular processes.
