Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

PACSIN2 Is a Regulator of the Metalloprotease/Disintegrin ADAM13
ADAM13 is a cell surface metalloprotease expressed in cephalic neural crest cells during early Xenopus development. The cytoplasmic domain of ADAM13 contains three potential SH3 (Src homology type 3) binding sites, suggesting that this region may support interactions with intracellular proteins.

The Glycoprotein B Disintegrin-Like Domain Binds Beta 1 Integrin To Mediate Cytomegalovirus Entry [PDF]
Cellular integrins were identified as human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) entry receptors and signaling mediators in both fibroblasts and endothelial cells. The goal of these studies was to determine the mechanism by which HCMV binds to cellular integrins to ...

Inhibition of adipogenesis by RGD-dependent disintegrin
Adipogenesis plays a central role in obesity development. The processes of adipogenesis include migration, adhesion, proliferation and survival of preadipocytes and differentiation to mature adipocytes. Many of these biological functions are related to integrins.

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray diffraction studies of disintegrin (schistatin) from saw-scaled viper (Echis carinatus) [PDF]
This is the first report of crystallographic data on a disintegrin molecule from any source. The heterodimeric disintegrin with a molecular weight of 14 kDa from Echis carinatus venom is a potent antagonist of 4 integrins.

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...
