Abstract excerpt
The influence of extracellular matrix (ECM) on expression and function of integrins in carcinogenesis and differentiation is not well understood, but the importance of altered adhesion features for tumor development and progression is obvious. Integrins as versatile molecules are mainly responsible for mediating cell-matrix interactions and transmembrane signal transduction. They are capable of transducing...
