Receptors for laminins during epithelial morphogenesis

Current Opinion in Cell Biology
P Ekblom

Abstract

Laminin-1 is expressed by many embryonic epithelial cell types. It binds to receptors on the epithelial cell surface. The integrin alpha6beta1 is a well known laminin-1 receptor that is expressed on many embryonic epithelial cells. More recently, dystroglycan was discovered as a high-affinity receptor for laminin-1 and laminin-2. It is expressed not only by muscle cells but also by embryonic epithelial cells. In embryonic epithelia, dystroglycan may act by binding to the E3 fragment of laminin-1. Integrins and the dystroglycan complex seems to be important for epithelial morphogenesis, but the relative roles of these two receptor systems for epithelial cells are still unclear.

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. Discover the latest research on adhesion molecule and their role in health and disease here.
