Allosteric Modulation of Beta1 Integrin Function Induces Lung Tissue Repair
The cellular cytoskeleton, adhesion receptors, extracellular matrix composition, and their spatial distribution are together fundamental in a cell's balanced mechanical sensing of its environment. We show that, in lung injury, extracellular matrix-integrin interactions are altered and this lead...
