Disintegrins: integrin selective ligands which activate integrin-coupled signaling and modulate leukocyte functions
Extracellular matrix proteins and cell adhesion receptors (integrins) play essential roles in the regulation of cell adhesion and migration. Interactions of integrins with the extracellular matrix proteins lead to phosphorylation of several intracellular proteins such as focal adhesion kinase, activ...
