ECM COMPONENTS:
ADHESIVE GLYCOPROTEINS - FIBRONECTIN
The principal function of the
fibronectin is to connect cells
to matrices that contain
fibrillar collagen.
At least 20 different forms of
fibronectin have been
identified.
All of them arise from
alternative splicing of a single
fibronectin gene.

FIBROBLAST CELLS
Fibroblasts: common cell
type in connective tissue
Secretes ECM rich in
collagen
Migrates and proliferates
readily in wounded tissue
and in tissue culture

BASAL LAMINA
A selective barrier of the
movement of cells and a filter
for molecules
Important in regeneration of
tissue following damage/
trauma
Basal lamina usually survives
although cells are damaged/killed
Acts as a scaffold to which
regenerating cells can migrate
maintains original tissue

ECM COMPONENTS:
CONNECTIVE TISSUE
Connective tissue (CT) forms an extensive compartment in the
body and can be considered as the "glue" that holds the body
together.
Very diverse and ranges in consistency from the fluidity of
blood to the gel-like softness of areolar connective tissue to
the hardness of bone.
Connective tissue consists of cells and extracellular material
secreted by some of those cells.
Unlike the other basic tissues (epithelia, muscle, nervous), the
cells in CT may be widely separated from one another within
the extracellular matrix.

Fig. 2.2 Integrin structure of D subunits lacking the I-domain. a Integrins in their unbound, inactive
resting state. In this state integrins are in a bent conformation and the transmembrane and
cytoplasmic regions are closely associated. b Once activated by talins and kindlins, there is separation of the cytoplasmic and transmembrane subunits and extension of the integrins extracellular
domains. Extracellular ligand binding can occur in this conformation. c When activated integrins
bind to ligand, they cluster at the plasma membrane. Clustering is necessary to send intracellular
signals to form tight focal adhesions (FA), important for actin cytoskeletal assembly and activation
of further downstream signals to control various cellular functions
Transmembrane Domain
The transmembrane (TM) domains of integrins are single spanning structures
comprised of ~2529 amino acid residues that form D-helical coiled coils that
either homo- or heterodimerize (Adair and Yeager 2002). Unlike integrin extracellular
domains, no high-resolution experimental X-ray crystal structures are available for
the TM domain of any integrin heterodimer, and much of the structural data are
based on NMR analysis. Structural information from the DIIbE3 heterodimer TM
domains have only recently been solved in their entirety (Adair and Yeager 2002;

Lau et al., 2008a, 2008b, 2009). The DIIb TM domain is a 24 residue D-helix
followed by a backbone reversal that lacks a significant helix tilt (Lau et al. 2008a).

INSTINCTIVELY !
In inside-out
signaling, changes in
receptor conformation
result from
intracellular signals
that originate
elsewhere in the cell.
For example, at
another receptor
In outside-in
signaling, signals
initiated at a receptor
are propagated to
other parts of the cell.
For example, upon
ligand binding
