“…Most lung cancer cell lines as well as normal bronchial epithelial cells express the β1 integrin subunit [25,27]. The present study confirms that lung cancer cells in culture express a variety of β1 integrins.…”

“…However, U-1810 and U-1752 expressed β3 integrins. Several studies have focused on the integrin expression of lung cancer cells but have not clearly shown distinct patterns of integrin expression among various histological types of lung cancer [15,[25][26][27]. Most lung cancer cell lines as well as normal bronchial epithelial cells, however, express the β1 integrin subunit [25,27].…”

“…It has been shown that the integrin subunits ␤1 and ␤4 are expressed fairly ubiquitously in lung cancer cells as common subunits, whereas ␤3 and ␤5 subunits are not detected in every lung cancer cell type. 16,17 Our semiquantitative measurement of integrins ␣ v , ␤5 (Figure 3), and ␤3 (data not shown) showed that the expression level of these integrin subunits varied considerably among the cell lines examined. However, the total amount of ␣ v plus ␤5 seemed to correlate with the cell's susceptibility to adenovirus (Figures 1 and 3).…”

“…It has also been reported that lung cancer cells adhere to endothelial cells through the b 1 sub-family of integrins [33], indicating their ability to infiltrate endothelial cells, thereby facilitating metastasis. The b 1 sub-family is also known to maintain the motile nature of NSCLC cells by activation of motilitypromoting signals involving Fak and Src kinases [34].…”
