ADAMTS expression in colorectal cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
ADAMTSs are a family of secreted proteinases that share the metalloproteinase domain with matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). By acting on a large panel of extracellular substrates, they control several cell functions such as fusion, adhesion ...

Cloning and Characterization of ADAMTS-14, a Novel ADAMTS Displaying High Homology with ADAMTS-2 and ADAMTS-3 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
The processing of amino- and carboxyl-propeptides of fibrillar collagens is required to generate collagen monomers that correctly assemble into fibrils. Mutations in the ADAMTS2 gene, the aminopropeptidase of procollagen I and II, result in the accumulation of non-fully processed type I procollagen, causing human Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIIC and ...

Regulation of ADAMTS Proteases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
A disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I motifs (ADAMTS) proteases are secreted metalloproteinases that play key roles in the formation, homeostasis and remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM).

ADAMTS-9 in Mouse Cartilage Has Aggrecanase Activity That Is Distinct from ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS)-4 and ADAMTS-5 are the principal aggrecanases in mice and humans; however, mice lacking the catalytic domain of both enzymes (TS-4/5∆cat) have no skeletal phenotype, suggesting there is an alternative aggrecanase for modulating normal growth and development in these mice.

ADAMTS-15 Has a Tumor Suppressor Role in Prostate Cancer

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Extracellular matrix remodeling has emerged as an important factor in many cancers. Proteoglycans, including versican (VCAN), are regulated via cleavage by the proteolytic actions of A Disintegrin-like And Metalloproteinase domain with Thrombospondin-1 ...

Expression of ADAMTS-1, ADAMTS-4, ADAMTS-5 and TIMP3 by hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines

open access: yesInternational Journal of Oncology, 2012
Little is known about the expression or role of ADAMTS-1, -4 and -5 and their endogenous inhibitor TIMP3 in the liver in physiological and pathological conditions. Their expression was, therefore, investigated in the hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines HepG2 and HuH-7 using qRT-PCR and western blotting, and their cellular localisation by ...

ADAMTS-5: The story so far [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Cells & Materials, 2008
The recent discovery of ADAMTS-5 as the major aggrecanase in mouse cartilage came as a surprise. A great deal of research had focused on ADAMTS-4 and much less was known about the regulation, expression and activity of ADAMTS-5. Two years on, it is still

Purification and Activity Determination of ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 and Their Domain Deleted Mutants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A disintegrin-like and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type-1 motifs-4 (ADAMTS-4) and ADAMTS-5 are zinc-dependent metalloproteinases that are involved in the maintenance of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) and are currently considered the major aggrecanases in the development of osteoarthritis.

Proteolytic activities of human ADAMTS-5: comparative studies with ADAMTS-4.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 2007
Aggrecanases have been characterized as proteinases that cleave the Glu373-Ala374 bond of the aggrecan core protein, and they are multidomain metalloproteinases belonging to the ADAMTS (adamalysin with thrombospondin type 1 motifs) family. The first aggrecanases discovered were ADAMTS-4 (aggrecanase 1) and ADAMTS-5 (aggrecanase 2).
