Epigenetic silencing of SOCS3 expression contributes to fibrosis in Crohn’s disease [PDF]
, 2017 Identified risk polymorphisms affecting the Jak-STAT3 pathway in patients with Crohn’s disease could affect TGF-β1 and collagen I expression and in the pathway’s negative regulator, SOCS3.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.This study used longitudinal transcriptomics and gene‐pattern classification to uncover patient‐specific mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer. Findings reveal preexisting drug‐tolerant states in primary tumors and diverse gene rewiring patterns across patients, converging on a few dysregulated functional modules. Despite receiving the

Role of protein kinase C-delta in the regulation of collagen gene expression in scleroderma fibroblasts [PDF]
, 2001 Working with cultured dermal fibroblasts derived from control individuals and patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc), we have examined the effects of protein kinase C-delta (PKC-delta) on type I collagen biosynthesis and steady-state levels of COL1A1 and

Stage-specific action of matrix metalloproteinases influences progressive hereditary kidney disease. [PDF]
, 2006 BackgroundGlomerular basement membrane (GBM), a key component of the blood-filtration apparatus in the in the kidney, is formed through assembly of type IV collagen with laminins, nidogen, and sulfated proteoglycans.

Dermatosparaxis in two White Doper lambs in Brazil: case report
Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2015 Dermatosparaxis is a genetic disease that affects collagen maturation. This disease is characterized by marked impairment of the resistance of collagen fibers that leads to skin fragility, and it may affect several species.

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.Nuclear prothymosin α inhibits epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in lung cancer by increasing Smad7 acetylation and competing with Smad2 for binding to SNAI1, TWIST1, and ZEB1 promoters. In early‐stage cancer, ProT suppresses TGF‐β‐induced EMT, while its loss in the nucleus in late‐stage cancer leads to enhanced EMT and poor prognosis.

Chemical Tools for Monitoring and Targeting Collagen Cross-linking
CHIMIAThe formation of collagen, the most abundant protein in mammals, is vital for the integrity of skin, tendons, and tissue in essentially any organ. Excessive collagen formation is, however, characteristic of fibrotic and malignant diseases, which include ...

Loss of proton‐sensing GPR4 reduces tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.G protein‐coupled receptor 4 (GPR4) is a pH‐sensing receptor activated by acidic pH. GPR4 expression is increased in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are at high risk of developing colorectal cancer. In mouse models, loss of GPR4 attenuated tumor progression. This correlated with increased IL2 and natural killer cell activity.
