Integrin activation by the lipid molecule 25-hydroxycholesterol induces a proinflammatory response

Integrins are key modulators of cell adhesion and signaling. Here the authors show, unexpectedly, that a complex of integrins and the lipid 25-hydroxycholesterol induces FAK activation and proinflammatory cytokine production, thereby serving as an integral part of innate immunity regulation.
