Integrin is an important cellular adhesion molecule,which mediates many biologic actions such as cell-cell adhesion or cell-extracellular matrix adhesion.The relationship between integrin and tumor metastasis,as well as the important role of integrin during tumor progress,is reviewed in this article,which gives us the theoretical base for new pathways of cancer treatment.
