Mouse Basophils Reside in Extracellular Matrix-Enriched Bone Marrow Niches Which Control Their Motility
Basophils co-express FcεRIα and CD49b, the α-2 chain of integrin-type receptor VLA-2 (α2β1), which recognizes type-1 collagen as a major natural ligand. The physiological relevance of this integrin for interactions with extracellular bone marrow matrix remains unknown. Herein, we examined the expres...
