    Abstract:

    Integrins are important components of tumor microenvironment, which act as adhesion molecules located on cell surface. Integrins can recognize and interact with different ligands in order to participate in many important physiological processes, including tumor cell invasion and metastasis. Integrin activation mediates tumor cell metastasis, and reversely tumor microenvironment can influence the expression and activation of integrin, and thus promotes tumor progression.
