Integrins in synapse regulation

Nature Reviews Neuroscience 17, 745 (2016). doi:10.1038/nrn.2016.138 Authors: Yun Kyung Park & Yukiko Goda Integrins are a large family of extracellular matrix (ECM) receptors. In the developing and adult brain, many integrins are present at high levels at synapses. The tetrapartite structure of synapses — which comprises presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons, the ECM and glial processes — places synaptic
