It is now widely accepted that the extracellular matrix (ECM) is a key determinant of tissue-specific gene expression. Signals provided by ECM are transduced by integrins, a large and growing superfamily of transmembrane heterodimeric cell surface receptors that link the ECM to structural and fu- tional elements within the cell. A wide range of cellular phenotypes have been shown to be regulated by integrins, including growth, differentiation, mig- tion, invasion, angiogenesis, and apoptosis. Furthermore, abnormalities of integrin expression and function have been implicated in the etiology of va- ous pathologic conditions, including cardiovascular disease, inflammatory disorders, and cancer. Thus integrins ... Read more

Reviews for Integrin Protocols
"Integrin Protocols aims to provide a hand-book of methods for the study of integrins. Many of the essential techniques are covered, with sections ranging from the relatively straight-forward (immunoblotting) to the highly complex (phage display and knock-outs)...Over half of the sections are by major figures in the integrin field, thus giving the book considerable authority..."-Cell Biology International 2000
