Integrins link the actin cytoskeleton of a cell to various external structures. The cytoplasmic portion of each integrin molecule binds to adaptor proteins that connect to the actin filaments ...

The α-subunits of integrins — transmembrane adhesion proteins — associate ... The detailed sequence of events following ECM binding to the integrin is not known, but the β-subunit ...

Cooper’s team imaged adhesion formation at the cell surface interface using total internal reflection (TIRF) microscopy and observed that activated Cas clustered at this site almost a full minute ...

a protein found on the surface of cells that facilitates adhesion, helping them stick to other surfaces. In this scenario, integrin is what the white blood cell actively works against when it ...

This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into ...
