Fibronectin, a glycoprotein present in blood as well as in cells, is a biomarker of tissue injury. Fibronectin binds to membrane-spanning receptor proteins called integrins. Fibronectin also binds to other extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen, fibrin, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans[1].
Fibronectin (FN) is a glycoprotein present in blood as well as in cells. While Fibronectin (FN) in blood has many functions, its primary role is to promote wound repair following injury[1].
Fibronectin also binds to other extracellular matrix proteins such as collagen, fibrin, and heparan sulfate proteoglycans (e.g. syndecans) [2].
