Background |
Integrins are α/β heterodimeric cell surface receptors that play a pivotal role in cell adhesion and migration, as well as in growth and survival The integrin family contains at least 18 α and 8 β subunits that form 24 known integrins with distinct tissue distribution and overlapping ligand specificities Integrins not only transmit signals to cells in response to the extracellular environment (outside-in signaling), but also sense intracellular cues to alter their interaction with the extracellular environment (inside-out signaling)Integrin α6 is a 120 kDa protein with two splice variants, integrin α6, 6A and 6B which function as receptors for laminins on the basal membrane to mediate cellular adhesion events α6 integrins have been shown to play an important role in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell homing to the bone marrow.
