ADAM12-mediated focal adhesion formation is differently regulated by beta1 and beta3 integrins.
Published in FEBS Letters
ADAM12, adisintegrin and metalloprotease, has been demonstrated to be upregulated in human malignant tumors and to accelerate the malignant phenotype in a mouse model for breast cancer. ADAM12 is a substrate for beta1 integrins and may affect tumor and stromal cell behavior through its binding to beta1 integrins. Here, we report that cells deficien...
