Did you mean Fibronectin?

GlossaryFibronectin

protein aiding cell adhesion and tissue repair

Fibronectin is a protein found in the extracellular matrix and blood plasma that plays a crucial role in cell adhesion, growth, migration, and wound healing. It helps cells stick to each other and to the surrounding environment, which is essential for tissue repair and maintaining the structural integrity of tissues.
