FAK Modulates Cell Adhesion Strengthening Via Two Distinct Mechanisms: Integrin Binding and Vinculin Localization
Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) provides tissue structure and integrity as well as triggers signals that regulate complex biological processes such as cell cycle progression and tissue-specific cell differentiation. Hence, cell adhesion is critical to numerous physiological and patho...
