A report, 'Caveolin-1-dependent beta1 integrin endocytosis is a critical regulator of fibronectin turnover,' is newly published data in Journal of Cell Science. According to recent research published in the Journal of Cell Science, "beta1 integrins are major cell surface receptors for fibronectin. Some integrins, including beta1 integrins, are known to undergo constitutive endocytosis and recycling."
"Integrin endocytosis/recycling has been implicated in the regulation of cell migration. However, the mechanisms by which integrin endocytosis/recycling regulates cell migration, and other biological consequences of integrin trafficking are not completely understood. ...
