Preferred Label : receptors, very late antigen;
MeSH definition : Members of the integrin family appearing late after T-cell activation. They are a
family of proteins initially identified at the surface of stimulated T-cells, but
now identified on a variety of cell types. At least six VLA antigens have been identified
as heterodimeric adhesion receptors consisting of a single common beta-subunit and
different alpha-subunits.;
