α5β1 integrin functional blockade induced migration of MLP29 hepatic progenitors. α5β1 functional blockade induced morphological modifications and triggered cell motility in MLP29 cells, in a manner comparable to HGF/SF1. Cell migration was calculated as the mean of six different measurements along the scratch and is expressed as percentage of the wound width covered by the migrating cells. The data presented summarize the mean (±SD) of three independent experiments.
