Abstract excerpt
Evidence has been emerging to suggest that integrin could induce growth inhibition in some cell types. Some of the molecular mechanisms underlying growth arrest have been elucidated. We reported here that overexpression of integrin beta1 imposed a growth inhibitory effect on the hepatocellular carcinoma cell line SMMC-7721, and this phenomenon was mainly attributed to the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor...
