Integrin α5β1 nano-presentation regulates collective keratinocyte migration independent of substrate rigidity

Nanometer-scale properties of the extracellular matrix influence many biological processes, including cell motility. While much information is available for single-cell migration, to date, no knowledge exists on how the nanoscale presentation of extracellular matrix receptors influences collective c...
