abstract：:We have previously identified two integrins, alpha 9 beta 1 and alpha v beta 6, from guinea pig airway epithelium. The extracellular matrix protein tenascin is a ligand for both of these receptors, and fibronectin is also a ligand for alpha v beta 6. In the present study, we used immunohistochemistry to examine the ex...
