Abstract excerpt
Integrins are major adhesion- and signaling-receptor proteins that mediate cell migration and invasion. They also trigger a variety of signal transduction pathways and regulate cytoskeletal organization, specific gene expression, growth control, and apoptosis (programmed cell death).
