ADAM Proteins- Therapeutic Potential in Cancer

Current Cancer Drug Targets, 2008
The A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease (ADAM) proteins belong to the metzincin-superfamily of Zn-dependent metalloproteinases that shed the extracellular domains of membrane-bound growth factors, cytokines and their receptors. The latter play a central role in cell signaling and contribute a potential target in cancer therapy. Of particular interest are

Drosophila Metalloproteases in Development and Differentiation: The Role of ADAM Proteins and Their Relatives

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2011
ADAM metalloproteases are membrane bound glycoproteins that control many biological processes during development and differentiation, mainly by acting as ectodomain sheddases. The Drosophila genome contains five genes that code for classical ADAM proteins which are characterized by a highly conserved domain structure with the respective catalytic ...

Altered cell‐matrix associated ADAM proteins in Alzheimer disease

open access: yesJournal of Neuroscience Research, 2000
Alterations in cell-matrix 'contact' are often related to a disruption of cell cycle regulation and, as such, occur variously in neoplasia, Given the recent findings showing cell cycle alterations in Alzheimer disease, we undertook a study of ADAM-1 and ...

ADAM proteins in the brain.

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2004
ADAM proteins are a family of metalloproteinases with a disintegrin domain. They have proteolytic as well as adhesive functions and can be involved in cell fusion events. Some ADAM proteins are expressed in a highly tissue restricted fashion, whereas others are expressed quite ubiquitously. In the brain, ADAM proteins have a role in neural development,

Sexual Selection and the Molecular Evolution of ADAM Proteins

Journal of Molecular Evolution, 2010
Rapid evolution has been identified for many reproductive genes and recent studies have combined phylogenetic tests and information on species mating systems to test sexual selection. Here we examined the molecular evolution of the ADAM gene family, a diverse group of 35 proteins capable of adhesion to and cleavage of other proteins, using sequence ...
