ITGAV integrin subunit alpha V

ENSG00000138448 · protein coding · Open Targets profile

The alpha-V (ITGAV) integrins are receptors for vitronectin, cytotactin, fibronectin, fibrinogen, laminin, matrix metalloproteinase- 2, osteopontin, osteomodulin, prothrombin, thrombospondin and vWF. They recognize the sequence R-G-D in a wide array of ligands. ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to fractalkine (CX3CL1) and may act as its coreceptor in CX3CR1- dependent fractalkine signaling (PubMed:23125415). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to NRG1 (via EGF domain) and this binding is essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling (PubMed:20682778). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to FGF1 and this binding is essential for FGF1 signaling (PubMed:18441324). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to FGF2 and this binding is essential for FGF2 signaling (PubMed:28302677). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to IGF1 and this binding is essential for IGF1 signaling (PubMed:19578119). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to IGF2 and this binding is essential for IGF2 signaling (PubMed:28873464). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to IL1B and this binding is essential for IL1B signaling (PubMed:29030430). ITGAV:ITGB3 binds to PLA2G2A via a site (site 2) which is distinct from the classical ligand-binding site (site 1) and this induces integrin conformational changes and enhanced ligand binding to site 1 (PubMed:18635536, PubMed:25398877). ITGAV:ITGB3 and ITGAV:ITGB6 act as receptors for fibrillin-1 (FBN1) and mediate R-G-D-dependent cell adhesion to FBN1 (PubMed:12807887, PubMed:17158881). Integrin alpha-V/beta-6 or alpha- V/beta-8 (ITGAV:ITGB6 or ITGAV:ITGB8) mediates R-G-D-dependent release of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta-1) from regulatory Latency-associated peptide (LAP), thereby playing a key role in TGF- beta-1 activation (PubMed:15184403, PubMed:22278742, PubMed:28117447). ITGAV:ITGB3 acts as a receptor for CD40LG (PubMed:31331973). ITGAV:ITGB3 acts as a receptor for IBSP and promotes cell adhesion and migration to IBSP (PubMed:10640428). ITGAV:ITGB3 acts as a receptor for SNED1 and mediates R-G-D-dependent cell adhesion to SNED1 (PubMed:39713860). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10640428, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12807887, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15184403, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17158881, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18441324, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18635536, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19578119, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20682778, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22278742, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23125415, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25398877, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28117447, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28302677, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28873464, ECO:0000269|PubMed:29030430, ECO:0000269|PubMed:31331973, ECO:0000269|PubMed:39713860}.

1 of the 9 drugs recorded against ITGAV is approved, and 1 more reached Phase 3

Each band is a group of drugs. It runs from the kind of drug on the left to the furthest stage that drug has reached in any disease on the right. Thicker bands mean more drugs.

Approved bands are highlighted. Withdrawn means the drug was pulled from the market or from development. A combined phase counts as the later one (Phase 1/2 is shown as Phase 2). Hover a band for the drug names. Source: Open Targets Platform, fetched live.

In 13 of 15 cancers, the evidence for ITGAV comes mainly from mutations found in tumours

Each row is a cancer, strongest overall evidence first. The two dots show how strong the inherited (germline) and tumour-mutation (somatic) evidence is; the line between them is the gap.

gnomAD loss of function constraint: o/e 0.5284199714660645 (upper bound 0.6395300030708313). Low values mean loss of function is poorly tolerated, a safety flag for inhibition.
