Quantitative Proteomics Reveals That ADAM15 Can Have Proteolytic-Independent Functions in the Steady State

Membranes, 2022
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase 15 (ADAM15) is a member of the ADAM family of sheddases. Its genetic ablation in mice suggests that ADAM15 plays an important role in a wide variety of biological functions, including cartilage homeostasis ...

Extracellular proteolysis in structural and functional plasticity of mossy fiber synapses in hippocampus

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2015
Brain is continuously altered in response to experience and environmental changes. One of the underlying mechanisms is synaptic plasticity, which is manifested by modification of synapse structure and function.

Low density lipoprotein from patients with Type 2 diabetes increases expression of monocyte matrix metalloproteinase and ADAM metalloproteinase genes

Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2007
Aims Type 2 diabetes is characterised by increased plasma concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines [such as tumour necrosis factor – alpha; TNF-α] and soluble forms of adhesion molecules involved in leukocyte – endothelial interactions.

Differential Spatio-Temporal Regulation of MMPs in the 5xFAD Mouse Model of Alzheimer’s disease: Evidence for aPro-Amyloidogenic Role of MT1-MMP

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are pleiotropic endopeptidases involved in a variety of neurodegenerative/neuroinflammatory processes through their interactions with a large number of substrates.

Structure-Function Relationship of the Disintegrin Family: Sequence Signature and Integrin Interaction

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Disintegrins are small cysteine-rich proteins found in a variety of snake venom. These proteins selectively modulate integrin function, heterodimeric receptors involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interaction that are widely studied as therapeutic ...

HIF-1α is Overexpressed in Odontogenic Keratocyst Suggesting Activation of HIF-1α and NOTCH1 Signaling Pathways

Cells, 2019
Background: The odontogenic keratocyst (OKC) is an odontogenic cyst that shows aggressive and intriguing biological behavior. It is suggested that a hypoxic environment occurs in OKC, which led us to investigate the immunoexpression and location of ...
