The integrin family of transmembrane adhesion receptors is essential for sensing and
adhering to the extracellular environment. Integrins are heterodimers composed of non …

Integrin adhesions are a structurally and functionally diverse family of transmembrane, multi-
protein complexes that link the intracellular cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix (ECM) …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex network of proteins and proteoglycans secreted
by keratinocytes, fibroblasts and immune cells. The function of the skin ECM has expanded …

Aging-associated changes of skin conditions are a major concern for maintaining quality of
life. Therefore, the improvement of skin conditions by dietary supplementation is a topic of …

Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key players in the development and
progression of cancer. FEZ family zinc finger 1 antisense RNA 1 (FEZF1‑AS1) is a novel …

Adipose tissue presents a comparably easy source for obtaining stem cells, and more
studies are increasingly investigating the therapeutic potential of adipose-derived stem cells …

Mounting evidence has demonstrated that long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are
dysregulated and implicated in the occurrence and development of a wide range of human …

Skin consists of the epidermis and dermis, which are connected by a specialized basement
membrane—the epidermal basement membrane. Both the epidermal basement membrane …

The interface between the cellular actin network and diverse forms of integrin-mediated cell
adhesions displays a unique capacity to serve as accurate chemical and mechanical …

ABSTRACT β1-integrins mediate cell–matrix interactions and their trafficking is important in
the dynamic regulation of cell adhesion, migration and malignant processes, including …
