    J Cell Biol 158:165-74. 2002
    ..These findings reveal that integrin-mediated activation of PI-3K-Akt is amplified by integrin-stimulated VEGF expression and they provide a mechanism that substantiates the reported role of alpha 6 beta 4 in carcinoma progression...

    Division of Cancer Biology and Angiogenesis, Department of Pathology, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02215, USA
    Mol Cells 17:203-9. 2004
    ..VEGF produced by breast carcinoma cells in response to alpha6 integrin regulation can function in an autocrine manner to promote survival signaling...

    J Biol Chem 279:32287-93. 2004
    ..These data argue that the invasive function of Met can be independent of alpha(6)beta(4) and that alpha(6)beta(4) has a generic influence on the invasion of carcinoma cells that is not specific to Met...
