Thy-1 is an abundant neuronal glycoprotein in mammals. Despite such prevalence, Thy-1 function remains largely obscure in the absence of a defined ligand. Recently described evidence that Thy-1 interacts with β3 integrin ...

Thy-1/CD90 is a glycoprotein attached to the outer face of the plasma membrane with various functions, which depend on the context of specific physiological or pathological conditions. Many of these reported functions for ...

Two key proteins for cellular communication between astrocytes and neurons are amp integrin and the receptor Thy-1. Binding of these molecules in the same (cis) or on adjacent (trans) cellular membranes induces Thy-1 ...

Our previous reports indicate that ligand-induced alpha(v)beta(3) integrin and Syndecan-4 engagement increases focal adhesion formation and migration of astrocytes. Additionally, ligated integrins trigger ATP release through ...

The β 2 integrins are found exclusively in leukocytes and they are composed of a common β chain, CD18, and one of four unique α chains, CD11a (α L subunit), CD11b (α M subunit), CD11c (α ...

Thy-1, or CD90, is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-linked cell surface glycoprotein expressed on multiple cell types, including neurons, thymocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, mesangial cells, and some hematopoietic ...
