Tendinopathy—from basic science to treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Chronic tendon pathology (tendinopathy), although common, is difficult to treat. Tendons possess a highly organized fibrillar matrix, consisting of type I collagen and various 'minor' collagens, proteoglycans and glycoproteins.

Isolation of bothrasperin, a disintegrin with potent platelet aggregation inhibitory activity, from the venom of the snake Bothrops asper

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2003
The venom of Bothrops asper induces severe coagulation disturbances in accidentally envenomed humans. However, only few studies have been conducted to identify components that interact with the hemostatic system in this venom.

Evolutionary divergence and functions of the ADAM and ADAMTS gene families

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2009
The 'A-disintegrin and metalloproteinase' (ADAM) and 'A-disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs' (ADAMTS) genes make up two similar, yet distinct, gene families.

Extracellular Matrix Enzymes and Immune Cell Biology

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Remodelling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) by ECM metalloproteinases is increasingly being associated with regulation of immune cell function. ECM metalloproteinases, including Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs), A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinases ...

The Proteome of African Spitting and Non‐Spitting Cobra Venoms and Cytotoxicity Against Pancreatic Cancer Cells

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT African cobra (Naja spp.) venom contains toxins dominated by proteins and peptides with inter‐ and intra‐specific variations. There are several FDA‐approved drugs from snake venom toxins from other regions, including South America and Asia. Profiling the proteomes of medically important African cobra venoms from different locations will aid in

Chronic tendon pathology: molecular basis and therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Tendons are frequently affected by chronic pain or rupture. Many causative factors have been implicated in the pathology, which until relatively recently was under-researched and poorly understood.

Reduced JAG1 Expression Through miR‐200 Overexpression or Crispr‐Cas Mediated Knockout Impairs TNBC Growth and Metastasis

open access: yesMolecular Carcinogenesis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studies from our lab demonstrated that increasing miR‐200 expression in human triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) reduced tumor growth and metastasis In Vivo. In this study, we found that overexpression of miR‐200s in TNBC cells significantly reduced the expression of JAG1.

NKG2D and its ligands: one for all, all for one [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The activating receptor NKG2D is peculiar in its capability to bind to numerous and highly diversified MHC class I-like self-molecules. These ligands are poorly expressed on normal cells but can be induced on damaged, transformed or infected cells, with ...

Effect of a disintegrin and metalloprotease 33 (ADAM33) gene polymorphisms and smoking in COPD

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2012
Background: COPD is characterized by air flow limitation that is not fully reversed and associated with an influx of neutrophils, macrophages and CD8 T lymphocytes in the airways.

TspanC8 Tetraspanins and A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10) Interact via Their Extracellular Regions

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2015
A disintegrin and metalloprotease 10 (ADAM10) is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane metalloprotease that cleaves the extracellular regions from its transmembrane substrates.
