Integrin β-1 (ITGB1) belongs to the integrin β chain family. Integrin family members are membrane receptors involved in cell adhesion and recognition in a variety of processes including embryogenesis, hemostasis, tissue repair, immune response and metastatic diffusion of tumor cells. ITGB1 is an integrin unit associated with very late antigen receptors, which contains one VWFA domain. It is known to conjoin with α-3 subunit to create α3β1 complex that reacts to such molecules as netrin-1 and reelin.

Vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) is a cell surface protein belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily, the protein is expressed by activated endothelial cells and certain leukocytes (such as macrophages). IL-1 beta, IL-4, TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma induced the expression of VCAM-1. The human and mouse VCAM-1 proteins share approximately 76% amino acid similarity. Mouse VCAM-1 is Important in cell-cell recognition. it appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion, and interacts with integrin alpha-4 beta-1 (ITGA4 ITGB1) on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction.

Vascular non-inflammatory molecule 2, also known as glycosyl-phosphatidyl inositol-anchored protein GPI-8, Vanin-2, Protein FOAP-4 and VNN2, is a cell membrane protein that belongs to the CN hydrolase family and Vanin subfamily. VNN2 is widely expressed with higher expression in spleen and blood. VNN2 is a member of the vanin family of proteins which share extensive sequence similarity with each other, and also with biotinidase. The family includes secreted and membrane-associated proteins, a few of which have been reported to participate in hematopoietic cell trafficking. No biotinidase activity has been demonstrated for any of the vanin proteins, however, they possess pantetheinase activity, which may play a role in oxidative-stress response. VNN2 is an amidohydrolase that hydrolyzes specifically one of the carboamide linkages in D-pantetheine thus recycling pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and releasing cysteamine. It is involved in the thymus homing of bone marrow cells. VNN2 plays a role in transendothelial migration of neutrophils and may regulate beta-2 integrin-mediated cell adhesion, migration and motility of neutrophil.
