Stepwise Adipogenesis of Decellularized Cellular Extracellular Matrix Regulates Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cell Migration and Differentiation by Ziang Zhang, Rongmei Qu, Tingyu Fan, Jun Ouyang, Feng Lu, Jingxing Dai

“…In contrast, ASCs seeded on adipogenic d-ECM underwent adipogenic differentiation. In addition, integrin subunit αv and integrins α6 and α7 were detected at significantly greater levels in ASCs cultured on growth and adipogenic d-ECM, respectively, suggesting that integrins play an important role in ASC migration and adipogenesis. …”

Discoidin domain receptors; an ancient family of collagen receptors has major roles in bone development, regeneration and metabolism by Renny T. Franceschi, Shawn A. Hallett, Chunxi Ge

“…For many years, specific β1 integrins were considered the main collagen receptors in bone, but, more recently, the important role of a second, more primordial collagen receptor family, the discoidin domain receptors, has become apparent. …”

Leukocyte migration in experimental inflammatory bowel disease by E. P. Van Rees, M. J. H. J. Palmen, F. R. W. Van De Goot, B. A. Macher, L. A. Dieleman

“…Emigration of leukocytes from the circulation into tissue by transendothelial migration, is mediated subsequently by adhesion molecules such as selectins, chemokines and integrins. This multistep paradigm, with multiple molecular choices at each step, provides a diversity in signals. …”

Turnover of Focal Adhesions and Cancer Cell Migration by Makoto Nagano, Daisuke Hoshino, Naohiko Koshikawa, Toshifumi Akizawa, Motoharu Seiki

“…Cells are usually surrounded by the extracellular matrix (ECM), and adhesion of the cells to the ECM is a key step in their migration through tissues. Integrins are important receptors for the ECM and form structures called focal adhesions (FAs). …”

The Role of Immunoglobulin Superfamily Cell Adhesion Molecules in Cancer Metastasis by Chee Wai Wong, Danielle E. Dye, Deirdre R. Coombe

“…Surprisingly, the contribution of Ig-SF members to metastasis has not received the attention afforded other cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) such as the integrins. Here we examine the steps in the metastatic pathway focusing on how the Ig-SF members, melanoma cell adhesion molecule (MCAM), L1CAM, neural CAM (NCAM), leukocyte CAM (ALCAM), intercellular CAM-1 (ICAM-1) and platelet endothelial CAM-1 (PECAM-1) could play a role. …”
