Blocking neutrophil integrin activation prevents ischemia-reperfusion injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Neutrophil recruitment, mediated by β2 integrins, combats pyogenic infections but also plays a key role in ischemia-reperfusion injury and other inflammatory disorders.

Integrins, cancer and snake toxins (mini-review)

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2005
Integrins encompass a family of transmembrane heterodimeric proteins of adhesion that maintain cells attached to other cells and to the extracellular matrix (ECM).

Constitutive Association of Tie1 and Tie2 with Endothelial Integrins is Functionally Modulated by Angiopoietin-1 and Fibronectin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Functional cross-talk between Tie2 and Integrin signaling pathways is essential to coordinate endothelial cell adhesion and migration in response to the extracellular matrix, yet the mechanisms behind this phenomenon are unclear.

αV-class integrins exert dual roles on α5β1 integrins to strengthen adhesion to fibronectin

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Interaction of fibronectin with αv-class and α5β1 integrins results in formation of cell adhesion complexes, but the initial events (

Beyond adhesion: emerging roles for integrins in control of the tumor microenvironment [version 1; referees: 4 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2017
While integrins were originally discovered as cell adhesion receptors, recent studies have reinforced the concept that integrins have central roles in cancer that extend far beyond controlling cell adhesion and migration.

The Connection Between Rap1 and Talin1 in the Activation of Integrins in Blood Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Integrins regulate the adhesion and migration of blood cells to ensure the proper positioning of these cells in the environment. Integrins detect physical and chemical stimuli in the extracellular matrix and regulate signaling pathways in blood cells ...

Components of cell-matrix linkage as potential new markers for prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Prostate cancer is one of the most common tumor diseases worldwide. Often being non-aggressive, prostate tumors in these cases do not need immediate treatment.

Integrin activation states and eosinophil recruitment in asthma

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2013
Eosinophil arrest and recruitment to the airway in asthma are mediated, at least in part, by integrins. Eosinophils express α4β1, α6β1, αLβ2, αMβ2, αXβ2, αDβ2, and α4β7 integrins, which interact with counter-receptors on other cells or ligands in the ...

The Talin Head Domain Reinforces Integrin-Mediated Adhesion by Promoting Adhesion Complex Stability and Clustering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Talin serves an essential function during integrin-mediated adhesion in linking integrins to actin via the intracellular adhesion complex. In addition, the N-terminal head domain of talin regulates the affinity of integrins for their ECM-ligands, a ...

Role of Integrins in Modulating Smooth Muscle Cell Plasticity and Vascular Remodeling: From Expression to Therapeutic Implications

open access: yesCells, 2022
Smooth muscle cells (SMCs), present in the media layer of blood vessels, are crucial in maintaining vascular homeostasis. Upon vascular injury, SMCs show a high degree of plasticity, undergo a change from a “contractile” to a “synthetic” phenotype, and ...
