## Abstract We have investigated the expression of integrins in C6 glioma, a chemicallyβinduced glial tumor cell line from rat brain. Immunochemical analysis revealed that C6 cells express sets of integrin receptor complexes which immunologically and electrophoretically are indistinguishable from t

## Background Adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) components has been implicated in the proliferative and invasive properties of tumor cells. We investigated the ability of C6 glioma cells to attach to ECM components __in vitro__ and described the regulatory role of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) on
## Malignant gliomas are characterized by an extensive invasion of tumor cells into the normal brain parenchyma. A substantial amount of data indicates that cell movement in general is regulated by specific interactions between extracellular matrix components and specific cell-surface receptors. I
