A Gene Gun-mediated Nonviral RNA trans-splicing Strategy for Col7a1 Repair

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2016
RNA trans-splicing represents an auspicious option for the correction of genetic mutations at RNA level. Mutations within COL7A1 causing strong reduction or absence of type VII collagen are associated with the severe skin blistering disease dystrophic ...

The hinge region of type VII collagen is intrinsically disordered

open access: yesMatrix Biology, 2014
Type VII collagen (Col7) is important for skin integrity. As a major component of the anchoring fibrils, Col7 is essential for linking different skin layers together. The central collagenous domain of Col7 contains several interruptions of the collagen triple helix.

Suppression of TGFβand Angiogenesis by Type VII Collagen in Cutaneous SCC [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the National Cancer Institute, 2015
Individuals with severe generalized recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB), an inherited blistering disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene, develop unexplained aggressive squamous cell carcinomas (SCC). Here we report that loss of type VII collagen (Col7) in SCC results in increased TGFβ signaling and angiogenesis in vitro and in ...

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Spontaneous internal carotid artery dissection in dystrophic bullous epidermolysis - association or determinant factor? [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Neurology, 2010
Pathogenesis of spontaneous carotid artery dissection (sCAD) is still a domain of research. Classical inherited connective tissue disease, primary or systemic arteriopathies and ultrastructural alterations of the arterial wall were reported in sCAD.

IgE does not increase collagen type-IV deposition, but increases collagen type-VII diseases specifically.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) IgE does not induce collagen type-IV deposition by ASMC. (B) IgE does not modify TGF-β1-induced collagen type-IV deposition. (C) IgE disease specifically increases the deposition of collagen type-VII by ASMC of asthma patients, (D) but has no ...

Metastasis on pause: How dormant tumor cells stay hidden within the tumor microenvironment and evade immune surveillance

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Dormant cancer cells can hide in distant organs for years, evading treatment and the immune system. This review highlights how signals from the surrounding tissue and immune environment keep these cells inactive or trigger their reawakening. Understanding these mechanisms may help develop therapies to eliminate or control dormant cells and prevent ...

Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) Acquisita in an Adult Patient with Previously Unrecognized Mild Dystrophic EB and Biallelic COL7A1 Mutations

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2018
Circulating anti-type VII collagen autoantibodies are frequently detected in patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB). However, evidence supporting their pathogenic role in inducing epidermolysis bullosa acquisita (EBA) has been ...

Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 regulates cell adhesion and membrane protrusive activity of ovarian cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP9) drives ovarian cancer progression. Using MMP9‐null cells (M9‐KO) created from ovarian cancer cells, we found MMP9 loss did not block Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF)‐driven E‐cadherin dissolution or EMT but delayed and reduced EGF‐driven membrane protrusions. Transient MMP9 re‐expression drove membrane protrusion.
