Expression of collagen binding integrins during cardiac development and hypertrophy.
1 Mar 1991
Abstract excerpt
The interaction between components of the extracellular matrix and the cell surface of cardiac myocytes appears to be regulated in part by receptors belonging to the integrin superfamily. The expression of the integrins was investigated at different stages of development of the heart as well as during cardiac hypertrophy. The characterization of the membrane proteins showed that a beta 1-integrin and associated...
