Adhesive Loose Packings of Small Particles [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2015, 11, 6492, 2014 We explore adhesive loose packings of dry small spherical particles of micrometer size using 3D discrete-element simulations with adhesive contact mechanics. A dimensionless adhesion parameter ($Ad$) successfully combines the effects of particle velocities, sizes and the work of adhesion, identifying a universal regime of adhesive packings for $Ad>1 ...

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

Identification of a membrane-less compartment regulating invadosome function and motility
Scientific Reports, 2018 Depletion of liprin-α1, ERC1 or LL5 scaffolds inhibits extracellular matrix degradation by invasive cells. These proteins co-accumulate near invadosomes in NIH-Src cells, identifying a novel invadosome–associated compartment distinct from the core and ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Conformational flexibility determines the Nf2/merlin tumor suppressor functions
Matrix Biology Plus, 2021 The Neurofibromatosis type 2 gene encodes the Nf2/merlin tumor suppressor protein that is responsible for the regulation of cell proliferation. Once activated, Nf2/merlin modulates adhesive signaling pathways and thereby inhibits cell growth.

EPCR promotes breast cancer progression by altering SPOCK1/testican 1-mediated 3D growth
Journal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017 Background Activated protein C/endothelial protein C receptor (APC/EPCR) axis is physiologically involved in anticoagulant and cytoprotective activities in endothelial cells.
