Caspase-mediated Cleavage of Focal Adhesion Kinase pp125FAK and Disassembly of Focal Adhesions in Human Endothelial Cell Apoptosis
Normal endothelial and epithelial cells undergo apoptosis when cell adhesion and spreading are prevented, implying a requirement for antiapoptotic signals from the extracellular matrix for cell survival. We investigated some of the molecular changes occurring in focal adhesions during growth factor...
