Studies of focal adhesion kinase in epithelial cells : involvement in cell-cell adhesion
Epithelial cell-cell adhesion is mediated by tight junctions, adherens junctions and desmosomes. Epithelial cell-matrix adhesion is mediated by hemidesmosomes and focal contacts. These complexes exhibit great plasticity, and each contains molecular components which are able to participate in one or...
