The nitty‐gritty of vascular permeability in cancer: targeting blood endothelium to control metastases

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Blood vascular permeability is a hallmark of cancer and acts as an active driver of metastatic dissemination. Metastasis accounts for the vast majority of cancer deaths, yet most work has focussed on tumour‐intrinsic traits and angiogenesis, while the specific contribution of endothelial barrier regulation to intravasation and extravasation remains ...

Zeb2 Controls Retinal Physiological and Pathological Angiogenesis by Regulating Astrocyte Proliferation and Differentiation

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
During development, the oxygen‐sensitive transcription factor Zeb2 restrains astrocyte proliferation and maturation to ensure balanced retinal angiogenesis. In disease, it promotes the neurotoxic A1 astrocyte phenotype and inflammation, thereby promoting reparative revascularization over pathological neovascularization.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Interactions between small leucine‐rich proteoglycans and proteases: implications for tissue homeostasis and pathology

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Small leucine‐rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) are key modulators of extracellular matrix structure and signaling. Their proteolytic processing by MMPs (Matrix Metalloproteinases), ADAMTS (disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin motifs), and serine proteases generates bioactive fragments that regulate collagen remodeling, inflammation, and ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
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.

Optimal Hypoxia Mimetic Small Molecules for Enhancing Angiogenic Properties of Stem Cells From Human Exfoliated Deciduous Teeth

open access: yesInternational Endodontic Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Hypoxic preconditioning of cells holds promise for regenerative therapies, yet identifying effective and safe methods for clinical application remains challenging. We aimed to determine optimal hypoxia‐mimetic small molecules (SMs) that stabilize hypoxia‐inducible factor‐1α (HIF‐1α) and their dosages for hypoxic preconditioning in stem ...
