Fibronectins comprise a class of high molecular weight
glycoproteins present both in extracellular matrices and in soluble
form in body fluids. Although they have been studied for about
forty years, their real significance emerged only during the past
decade. Intensive research has focused on their role in platelet
function, cell migration, the cytoskeleton, reticuloendothelial
function, and on alterations in fibronectin distribution during
development and disease. Fibronectins have emerged as glycoproteins
with a very interesting set of properties generally involving
adhesion of cells to cells or to extracellular material. In more
recent years, the complete sequences of several fibronectin
molecules and their genes were determined, the relation between
structure and function was understood and much has been learned
about cell surface receptors for fibronectins and other adhesive
ligands. Having been at the forefront of all these exciting
developments, the author has synthesized the entire field and with
all the latest information at hand for the first time given it a
clear perspective.
