Differential expression of laminin-5 subunits and integrin receptors in human colorectal neoplasia
1 May 1998
Abstract excerpt
Cell-matrix interactions contribute to regulating the adhesion, growth, migration, and differentiation of epithelial intestinal cells. Alterations in matrix components and their cellular receptors have been found in tumours but their specific roles remain unclear. The tissue patterns of laminin-5 and alpha 3, beta 3 and gamma 2 subunits, as well as those of the alpha 3, alpha 6, beta 1, and beta 4 integrin...
