Even more fascinating is the intricate relationship between lysosomal exocytosis and focal adhesions, structures critical for cell anchoring and communication. By decoding how focal adhesions ...

Intercellular adhesion can be mediated by adherens junctions, tight junctions and desmosomes, whereas cells can interact with extracellular matrix molecules through focal adhesions ...

They serve as anchoring points for the cells. Every cell has many of these anchoring points, called focal adhesions, which give the cell support like little feet. Integrins have to cooperate with ...

In culture, most cells develop sites of adhesive interaction--known as focal adhesions--with ECM molecules that are adsorbed to the underlying plastic or glass surface. At their cytoplasmic face, ...

Our experiments have identified the first receptor-ligand pair essential for synchronized RPE phagocytosis: shed POS require ligation of avb5 integrin adhesion receptors by their ligand, the secreted ...
