Abstract excerpt
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is an important mediator of integrin signaling in the regulation of cell proliferation, survival, migration, and invasion. To understand how FAK contributes to cell invasion, we explored the regulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) by FAK. We found that v-Src-transformed cells activate a FAK-dependent mechanism that attenuates endocytosis of MT1-MMP. This in turn increases...
