CD207‐Positive Dendritic Cells Promote Emphysema Through CD8+ T Cell Pathway in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
CD207+ dendritic cells (DCs) drive emphysema by promoting CD8⁺ T cell cytotoxicity via Birbeck granule‐dependent MHC‐I antigen presentation. This DC subset is expanded by cigarette smoke‐induced oxidative stress, which triggers granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) release from airway epithelium.

Emerging pharmacological treatments to prevent abdominal aortic aneurysm growth and rupture [PDF]

, 2015
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a local expansion of the abdominal aorta wall caused by a complex multifactorial maladaptive vascular remodeling. Despite recent advances in the management of cardiovascular diseases, there currently is no established ...

Control of Elastin Synthesis

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
mRNA was isolated from the thoracic aortas of 16-day chick embryos and used to synthesize blunt-ended heteroduplex molecules consisting of one strand of mRNA and one of cDNA using AMV reverse transcriptase and S1 nuclease. The duplexes were tailed with dCTP and hybridized to the plasmid pBR322 which had been restricted with Pst I and tailed with dGTP ...

Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Reprograms Cancer Metabolism to Form a Metastatic Niche Promoting Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Brain Metastasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study mainly combines spatial/single‐cell transcriptomics and metabolomics to reveal LOX+ Malig‐5 as NSCLC brain metastasis‐initiating cells, forming a niche with NET‐releasing neutrophils via the NET‐KRT10 axis. The metastatic niche is involved with metabolic reprogramming, with palmitic acid serving as a key metabolite.

Elastases and Elastin Degradation.

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1982
The metabolic turnover of mature elastin fibers in adult animals is relatively slow. Although only small amounts of elastin are degraded normally, increased degradation and fragmentation of elastic fibers may play a significant role in disease processes. Elastinolytic enzymes are found in microorganisms, snake venoms, and in a number of mammalian cells

The Elastin Receptor Complex: A Unique Matricellular Receptor with High Anti-tumoral Potential

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2016
Elastin, one of the longest-lived proteins, confers elasticity to tissues with high mechanical constraints. During aging or pathophysiological conditions such as cancer progression, this insoluble polymer of tropoelastin undergoes an important ...
