Neuregulin-1 (NRG1) Binds to the Allosteric Binding Site (Site 2) and Suppresses Allosteric Integrin Activation by Inflammatory Cytokines: A Potential Mechanism of Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Fibrosis Action of NRG1

We showed that multiple inflammatory cytokines (e.g., CCL5, CXCL12, CX3CL1, CD40L, and FGF2) bind to the allosteric site (site 2) of integrins, distinct from the classical RGD-binding site (site 1), and allosterically activate integrins. A major inflammatory lipid mediator 25-hydroxycholesterol is k...
