ADAMDEC1 accelerates GBM progression via activation of the MMP2-related pathway
The ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) gene-related family including ADAM, ADAMTS, and ADAM-like decysin-1 has been reported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases, including cancers (lung cancer, gliomas, colorectal ...

ADAM and ADAMTS Proteins, New Players in the Regulation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Microenvironment [PDF]
The tumor microenvironment plays a major role in tumor growth, invasion and resistance to chemotherapy, however understanding how all actors from microenvironment interact together remains a complex issue. The tumor microenvironment is classically represented as three closely connected components including the stromal cells such as immune cells ...

ADAM and ADAMTS Proteases in Hepatic Disorders
Proteolysis is an irreversible post-translational modification that regulates protein function and signal transduction. This includes remodelling of the extracellular matrix, release of membrane-bound cytokines and receptor ectodomains, as well as the ...
