Fermitin family homolog-2 (FERMT2) is highly expressed in human placental villi and modulates trophoblast invasion

Abstract Background Integrins are transmembrane receptors that mediate cell–extracellular matrix (ECM) and cell-cell adhesion and trophoblast cells undergo changes in integrin expression as they differentiate. However, the mechanism(s) of integrin activation leading to integrin-mediated signaling in...
