Preferred Label : receptors, collagen;
MeSH definition : Collagen receptors are cell surface receptors that modulate signal transduction between
cells and the EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX. They are found in many cell types and are involved
in the maintenance and regulation of cell shape and behavior, including PLATELET ACTIVATION
and aggregation, through many different signaling pathways and differences in their
affinities for collagen isoforms. Collagen receptors include discoidin domain receptors,
INTEGRINS, and glycoprotein VI.; Cell surface receptors that modulate signal transduction between cells and the EXTRACELLULAR
MATRIX. They are found in many cell types and are involved in the maintenance and
regulation of cell shape and behavior, including PLATELET ACTIVATION and aggregation,
through many different signaling pathways and differences in their affinities for
collagen isoforms. Collagen receptors include DISCOIDIN DOMAIN RECEPTORS; INTEGRINS;
and GP6, one of the PLATELET MEMBRANE GLYCOPROTEINS.;
