ADAMTS1 Promotes Adhesion to Extracellular Matrix Proteins and Predicts Prognosis in Early Stage Breast Cancer Patients [PDF]
Despite, several studies demonstrating pro-metastatic effects of the metalloproteinase ADAMTS1 in breast cancer, its role in facilitating the metastatic cascade remains unclear. To date there have been limited studies that have examined the expression of ADAMTS1 in primary and metastatic breast cancer tissues.We assessed ADAMTS1 mRNA levels in ...

PGF2α-F-prostanoid receptor signalling via ADAMTS1 modulates epithelial cell invasion and endothelial cell function in endometrial cancer [PDF]
Background An increase in cancer cell invasion and microvascular density is associated with a poorer prognosis for patients with endometrial cancer. In endometrial adenocarcinoma F-prostanoid (FP) receptor expression is elevated, along with its ligand ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes. [PDF]
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Tumor growth inhibitory effect of ADAMTS1 is accompanied by the inhibition of tumor angiogenesis [PDF]
Angiogenesis plays an important role in tumor progression. Several reports have demonstrated that a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs1 (ADAMTS1) inhibited angiogenesis via multiple mechanisms.

Early Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer: The Key for Survival
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the most aggressive forms of cancer. Negative prognosis is mainly due to the late diagnosis in advanced stages, when the disease is already therapeutically overcome.

The 3'-untranslated region of ADAMTS1 regulates its mRNA stability [PDF]
ADAMTS1 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1) is an inflammatory-induced gene. We have previously reported that ADAMTS1 was strongly but transiently expressed in the infarcted heart. In this study, we investigated whether a 3'

The Long Noncoding RNA MALAT-1 Is Highly Expressed in Ovarian Cancer and Induces Cell Growth and Migration. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Metastasis associated in lung adenocarcinoma transcript-1 (MALAT-1) is overexpressed during cancer progression and promotes cell migration and invasion in many solid tumors.
