[ 1 2 ] . They can act as co-receptors of growth/trophic and survival factors to regulate cell behavior and/or restrict diffusion and create a relatively high local concentration of ligand.
18 mice, contrary to what was observed previously [ 15 ] . The high-level expression of hCARΔcyt by double-negative (CD4 -CD8 -) thymocytes rendered this population readily transducible, suggesting that these early thymocytes express sufficient integrin co-receptors (e.g.
Another example of co-receptors with multiple functions is the leukotriene family member B4, which was down-regulated in Tat expressing cells (Acc# D89078, Table 1).
