Role of integrins in wound repair and its periodontal implications
Journal of Oral Biology and Craniofacial Research, 2018 Wound healing in human periodontium is a complex process which involves both cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Integrins play a major role in regulation of these cell-cell, cell-matrix interaction. Wound healing involves two major events i.e.

Irisin supports integrin-mediated cell adhesion of lymphocytes
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021 Irisin, a myokine released from skeletal muscle, has recently been found to act as a ligand for the integrins αVβ5, αVβ1, and α5β1 expressed on mesenchymal cells, thereby playing an important role in the metabolic remodeling of the bone, skeletal muscle ...

αV-class integrins exert dual roles on α5β1 integrins to strengthen adhesion to fibronectin
Nature Communications, 2017 Interaction of fibronectin with αv-class and α5β1 integrins results in formation of cell adhesion complexes, but the initial events (

F1000Research, 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.

Integrins, cancer and snake toxins (mini-review)
Journal 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).

Integrin activation states and eosinophil recruitment in asthma
Frontiers 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 ...

BMB Reports, 2014 Integrin-mediated cell adhesion is important for development, immune responses, hemostasis and wound healing. Integrins also function as signal transducing receptors that can control intracellular pathways that regulate cell survival, proliferation, and cell fate.

Cells, 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 ...

Integrin‐dependent pathologies [PDF]
The Journal of Pathology, 2003 AbstractCell adhesion and migration are essential for embryonic development, tissue regeneration, and immune defence. The physical link between the extracellular substrate and the actin cytoskeleton is mediated by receptors of the integrin family and a large set of adaptor proteins.

Integrin signaling in cancer: bidirectional mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2023 Integrins are transmembrane receptors that possess distinct ligand-binding specificities in the extracellular domain and signaling properties in the cytoplasmic domain.
