Scientific Background: | CD51 (integrin αV subunit) associates with CD61 (integrin β3 subunit) binding to the RGD sequence in extracellular matrix proteins like vitronectin, fibrinogen, thrombospondin, von Willebrand factor and osteopontin. The αV/β3 heterodimer is expressed in endothelial cells, leukocytes, NK cells, macrophages, neutrophils, platelets and several malignant tumor cells and seems to play a role in embryo implantation, angiogenesis, wound healing and cancer. αV/β3 is also highly expressed in osteoclasts being important for bone resorption. |
