Unique ID: D039041
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D039041
Scope Note: Integrin alpha4beta1 is a FIBRONECTIN and VCAM-1 receptor present on LYMPHOCYTES; MONOCYTES; EOSINOPHILS; NK CELLS and thymocytes. It is involved in both cell-cell and cell- EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX adhesion and plays a role in INFLAMMATION, hematopoietic cell homing and immune function, and has been implicated in skeletal MYOGENESIS; NEURAL CREST migration and proliferation, lymphocyte maturation and morphogenesis of the PLACENTA and HEART.
Entry Term(s): CD49d-CD29; Integrin Heterodimer alpha4beta1; Integrin alpha(4)beta(1); VLA-4; Very Late Activation Antigen-4; Very Late Antigen-4; alpha4beta1 Integrin
