Regulation of Cross-linked Actin Network (CLAN) Formation in Human Trabecular Meshwork (HTM) Cells by Convergence of Distinct β1 and β3 Integrin Pathways

Abstract

Distinct beta1 and alphavbeta3 integrin signaling pathways converge to enhance CLAN formation. beta1-Mediated CLAN formation was PI-3K dependent, whereas beta3-mediated CLAN formation was CD47 and Rac1/Trio dependent and might have been regulated by thrombospondin-1. Both integrin pathways were Src dependent.
