Cell adhesion. Fibronectin and integrin knockouts come unstuck

Current Biology : CB
F M Watt, K J Hodivala

Abstract

Mice with homozygous null mutations in the genes encoding fibronectin or the alpha5 integrin subunit die as embryos. The types of embryonic defect confirm some ideas about fibronectin function but cast doubt on others.

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
