Nitric oxide/cGMP pathway signaling actively down-regulates α(4)β(1)-integrin affinity: an unexpected mechanism for inducing cell de-adhesion

BACKGROUND: Integrin activation in response to inside-out signaling serves as the basis for rapid leukocyte arrest on endothelium, migration, and mobilization of immune cells. Integrin-dependent adhesion is controlled by the conformational state of the molecule, which is regulated by seven-transmemb...
