Snake Venom Disintegrins and Cell Migration [PDF]

open access: yesToxins, 2010
Cell migration is a key process for the defense of pluricellular organisms against pathogens, and it involves a set of surface receptors acting in an ordered fashion to contribute directionality to the movement.

Cell migration inhibition activity of a non-RGD disintegrin from Crotalus durissus collilineatus venom [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2018
Background In recent decades, snake venom disintegrins have received special attention due to their potential use in anticancer therapy. Disintegrins are small and cysteine-rich proteins present in snake venoms and can interact with specific integrins to

Three disintegrin-like domain mutations of ADAMTS13: functional deficiency and association with thrombosis [PDF]

open access: yesZhenduanxue lilun yu shijian
Objective To analyze the genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of four thrombotic patients carrying heterozygous mutations in the disintegrin-like domain of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motifs 13), and to ...

EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF DISINTEGRIN ON TUMOUR GROWTH [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnologia Acta
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the world after cardiovascular disease, and many types of cancer have no symptoms in the early stages, making it difficult to diagnose.

A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase—Control Elements in Infectious Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2020
Despite recent advances in treatment strategies, infectious diseases are still under the leading causes of death worldwide. Although the activation of the inflammatory cascade is one prerequisite of defense, persistent and exuberant immune response ...

Recombinant and Chimeric Disintegrins in Preclinical Research

open access: yesToxins, 2018
Disintegrins are a family of small cysteine-rich peptides, found in a wide variety of snake venoms of different phylogenetic origin. These peptides selectively bind to integrins, which are heterodimeric adhesion receptors that play a fundamental role in ...

Circulating TREM2 as a noninvasive diagnostic biomarker for NASH in patients with elevated liver stiffness

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Reliable noninvasive biomarkers are an unmet clinical need for the diagnosis of NASH. This study investigates the diagnostic accuracy of the circulating triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (plasma TREM2) as a biomarker for NASH in patients with NAFLD and elevated liver stiffness.

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (
