Pathophysiology of acute experimental pancreatitis: Lessons from genetically engineered animal models and new molecular approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The incidence of acute pancreatitis is growing and worldwide population-based studies report a doubling or tripling since the 1970s. 25% of acute pancreatitis are severe and associated with histological changes of necrotizing pancreatitis. There is still

Direct Extracellular Matrix Modulation Attenuates Intestinal Fibrosis via a Fibronectin‐Targeted Approach

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Fibronectin regulates the extracellular matrix (ECM)–myofibroblast cycle through three key steps: (1) its secretion and assembly by myofibroblasts (inhibited by pUR4); (2) collagen deposition along its scaffold (inhibited by R1R2); and (3) integrin α5β1‐mediated mechanotransduction (inhibited by ATN161).

Cathepsin D [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Biology & Therapy, 2010
Proteases are a large and important group of enzymes, with essential roles in a great diversity of biological processes in all living organisms.1 Proteases are classified according the mechanisms by which they catalyze hydrolysis of peptide bonds within their protein substrates: serine, cysteine, threonine, metallo- and aspartic protease classes are ...

TRAP5 Inhibition Targeting Scar‐Associated Macrophages Ameliorates Acute Kidney Injury to Chronic Kidney Disease Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study delineates macrophage heterogeneity along the acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease transition. Single‐cell RNA sequencing reveals a TRAP5+ scar‐associated macrophage subset driven by Spp1–Cd44 signaling and mitochondrial metabolic reprogramming.

Clinical Significance of Cathepsin D Concentration in Tumor Cytosol of Primary Breast Cancer

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 2005
Background Cathepsin D is the proteolytic enzyme most frequently implicated as a prognostic factor in primary breast cancer. In the present study we evaluated by means of an immunoradiometric assay the tumor content of this protease in primary breast ...

Macrophage Extracellular Traps in Immunity and Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
As a macrophage‐mediated innate defense mechanism, the dysregulated release of METs drives chronic inflammation and influences tumor progression. Furthermore, METs exhibit a functional duality within the tumor microenvironment, capable of both promoting and suppressing tumor development.

A Cascade Recognition of Activatable Probe for Fluorescence Navigation Glioblastoma Surgery: Overcoming Blood‐Brain Barrier and Off‐Target Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A cascade recognition of activatable probe ANG‐hCy‐MC is used for high‐precision depiction of glioblastoma (GBM) margin. This probe crosses the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) through LRP1 receptor‐mediated transport and provides excellent fluorescence signal contrast between the tumor and normal tissues, thereby enabling ultra‐selective imaging and precise ...

Proteomic Analysis of Circulating Monocytes Identifies Cathepsin D as A Potential Novel Plasma Marker of Acute Coronary Syndromes

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Cardiology, 2008
We have performed a proteomic analysis of peripheral blood monocytes from ACS patients in comparison with healthy subjects and stable coronary patients in order to search novel biomarkers of ACS in circulating monocytes.
