CELL-MATRIX CONTACTS ARE ESSENTIAL FOR NORMAL CELL PHYSIOLOGY Cells bind to matrix proteins via specific cell surface receptors. Integrins comprise the larger family of ECM receptors. These heterodimeric proteins are ubiquitously expressed. The number, activation status and types of integrins expressed at the cell surface regulates the interaction with the substrate.
Extracellular matrix integrin Src cytosol Grb2 Sos Raf MAP kinase cascade Actin filament actinin nucleus Binding to ECM intiates integrin signaling and engagement of the cytoskeleton Extracellularly: b subunit binds to specific matrix proteins Intracellularly: • subunit binds to talin which interacts with actin and paxillin. Src phosphorylates FAK, which becomes linked to Grb2-Sos, which activates Ras, which sends signals along the MAP kinase pathway.

Integrins binding to ligands can be mediated by the tripeptide RGD
AT THE CELL SURFACE INTEGRINS CAN BE EITHER ACTIVE (OPEN) OR INACTIVE (BENT) Highly bent integrin conformation has low affinity for biological ligands
Integrins can also mediate Cell-cell interactions aIIbb3 integrin • During clotting, platelets aggregate because their integrin aIIbb3 binds to a molecule of fibrinogen. • Presence of RGD peptides can inhibit blood clot formation by competing with fibrinogen molecules for the RGD binding sites on the integrins.

CONTRIBUTION OF INSIDE-OUT SIGNALING TO INTEGRIN FUNCTION INSIDE-OUT SIGNALING
What is the biological relevance of the status of integrin activation? It allows for dynamic interactions with the substrate during migration in a manner that can be controlled either from the inside or outside of the cell and independently in different regions of the cell.
