Abstract Synopsis
- The text explains that cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix mainly involves integrin receptors that connect to intracellular proteins, forming complex and dynamic networks that regulate cell behavior.
- Recent advances in technology like imaging, proteomics, and bioinformatics have helped researchers better understand the composition and regulation of these adhesion networks, uncovering new roles for adhesion proteins in other parts of the cell such as the nucleus and centrosomes, especially in diseases like cancer.
- This research is leading to a new understanding of the broader functions of adhesion proteins, not just at the cell-matrix interface, but also throughout the cell, revealing their importance in both normal functions and disease processes.]
