To confirm in vitro observations, two in vivo assessments were carried out using hyaluronic acid hydrogels encapsulated with fibronectin fragments to activate the two integrin types — α3/α5β1 ...

The extracellular matrix protein fibronectin forms fibrils when in association with cells that exert tension. Cells apply enough force to stretch fibrils in vivo. Stretching of individual ...

In this scenario, integrin is what the white blood cell ... coli bound on PLL or fibronectin surfaces, respectively. Phagocytic efficiency can be evaluated by observing and quantifying the ...
